บท 337: Others Shouldn't Expect Anything

The first time Lady Xue insulted him, Qin Zheng could let it slide, but if there was a second time and he still did nothing, how would he continue to manage his subordinates and conduct cases in the Capital?

His face cold and stern, he ordered, "Lady Xue insulted the court officials and disregarded imperial law. Take her into custody for three days."

Lady Xue widened her eyes, never expecting that just two sentences would lead to such trouble. Seeing the soldiers approaching, she panicked completely and looked to Lord Xue for help.

"Husband..."

Lord Xue had a splitting headache. Even though his feelings for Lady Xue had waned, she was still the woman he had married through proper channels. He spoke up, "Lord Qin, her words and actions are shameless. It's like she's blinded by arrogance. I apologize to you here. Please be lenient."

Qin Zheng turned his head slightly, clearly not willing to let the matter go so easily.
