As Song Ci said, when people are caught in the vortex of tragedy, the suffering, fear, and anger all need an emotional outlet. Now someone has torn open a mouth. Regardless of right or wrong, they rush forward, hurling insults, slanders.

The Song Family did not immediately refute the rumors, and after the servants experienced verbal abuse and spitting during shopping errands, and even when some people rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion to curse and call for eradicating evil, that's when the people inside got angry.

Eradicating evil?
