Madam Su felt a chill shoot up her spine as Lin Caisang's piercing gaze fixed on her.
She knew that her defeat this time might mean even the Empress herself wouldn't bother with her any longer, because she was fully aware of all the unforgivable actions Su Wan and his family members had committed in Lotus Commandery over the years.
