"Treason is a capital offense, Madame Zeng, you must not show any mercy!"
Gu Ruoxi gritted her teeth. She was determined to pin the crime on Yun Feiwan, even if it meant forcing her own parents to commit perjury. And Minister Gu and his wife did not disappoint. Following her father’s claim that he had seen this man, Madam Gu also pointed a trembling finger at the scattered letters on the floor and exclaimed, "Heavens, it couldn’t... it couldn't possibly be Feiwan’s doing, could it?"
She covered her mouth with an exaggerated gesture and jabbed her finger fiercely toward the floor. "Look, everyone! At the end of these letters, there is a small habit—a mark left behind whenever Feiwan writes. I discovered it by accident! After all, Feiwan didn't like to study when she was young and was always running off to play. I had to watch her closely while she practiced calligraphy to keep her focused."
