King An saw that all the evidence was focused on Mrs. Shen. He looked at Mrs. Shen and asked, “Mrs. Shen, in the face of their accusations, do you admit it?”
Mrs. Shen nodded and looked like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.
“Who instructed you?”
“No one. Madam is my savior, so I only wanted to protect her from harm.”
“So, you want to take all the blame on yourself.” Yang Wanning gritted her teeth.
“I did it, alone.” Mrs. Shen raised her head and swept her eyes over her indifferently.
Yang Wanning was furious after hearing that. She thought Mrs. Shen would speak up after seeing that Mrs. Cui was on death row.
She didn’t expect Mrs. Shen to protect Mrs. Cui, even if it meant her death. The relationship between this master and servant was deep.
Mrs. Shen was just a widow whom her in-laws chased out. Her maiden family had disappeared because of the disaster, so she had no one related. She did not have anyone who she could be threaten with.
They wanted to see if Mother God would punish these villains or not.
Gu Chengrui noticed that Mrs. Shen was staring intently at him. He glanced at her and said, “Don’t feel wronged. After all, there are lives on your hands. Since you have sinned, you should be prepared to pay your debts.”
“Yes, swear, swear! As long as you swear, we will believe that Mrs. Cui is innocent!”
“That’s right! Hurry up and swear! We can see if Mother God will care about these things.”
“Swear, swear, swear...”
Mrs. Shen looked at the chanting crowd below and did not know what to do.
King An crossed his arms and watched the show from the side. If this matter really succeeded, then it meant there would be a way to deal with even the most stubborn criminals in the future.
Yang Wanning saw Mrs. Shen was finally panicking and pressed on, “Make an oath. If you dare say it, I’ll believe all of this is your doing alone.”
Mrs. Shen gritted her teeth and glanced at Mrs. Cui. Seeing her staring at her nervously, she finally closed her eyes and said, “I, Mrs. Shen, swear that if I protect Cui Fengzhi, I, I, I...
At this point, she couldn’t continue. She was afraid that if Mother God really manifested, she would never have a good life.
Just as everyone was about to urge her, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down in front of Mrs. Chen, scaring her so much that she screamed and immediately fled backwards..
