Kapitel 1033: Chapter 1033: The Duke Powerless to Seek Justice and Turn the Tide (2)

"That's right, we cannot let Lord Wei Yuan succeed, and we certainly cannot let that vile woman off easily! Come, let's go to the Lord Wei Yuan House together and demand justice for General Xiao!"

"..."

More and more people heeded the call to seek justice for Xiao Ruiyuan. Under the leadership of a few ringleaders, they streamed out of the Government Office and headed toward the direction of the Lord Wei Yuan House. A rough count estimated there were at least three hundred people. Following behind them were even more people, drawn by the excitement.

Even though these onlookers felt that General Xiao was being treated unjustly and despised Lord Wei Yuan for digging his own grave, they variously abstained from taking a stand for Xiao Ruiyuan due to various concerns and silently chose to be bystanders.
