Shut Up!

The onlookers wore expressions of mild astonishment as they witnessed Consort Shu's pitiful state and burst into laughter.

Many people followed suit and started throwing things at her.

Some individuals picked up whatever they could find on themselves to use as projectiles.

Some people, unwilling to part with their belongings, picked up stones and twigs from the ground instead.

"That wicked woman, shut your mouth!"

Before Consort Shu could even get up, she was hit by a barrage of objects, and her cries of distress continued.

If it weren't for the quick actions of Shuntian Preference's people in escorting her away, she might have been stoned to death by the indignant crowd.

The young man and the carter were also taken away by Shuntian Preference.

Gu Qingluan had promised to help the carter find his family later, and she would not go back on her word. She instructed Su Lie to send someone to assist.
