A surge of anger suddenly rose up from Sihan's heart. She took a few steps forward and stood in front of the group. With a cold voice, she ordered, "Stop." She might not know about anything else, but for the sake of not marrying Princess Da Liao, Gu Ziming even kissed her while she was pretending to be a man, not sparing the reputation of a man who liked her. How could such a man be a traitor?
The few of them were still full of strength from kicking when they suddenly heard Sihan yell harshly. They all stopped their actions and looked angrily at Sihan. "On what basis are you stopping us from fighting this traitor?" A middle-aged woman stretched out her finger and pointed at Sihan, asking with a cold voice. Her expression was as if Sihan was in cahoots with Gu Ziming.
Sihan coldly cast a sidelong glance at everyone who beat up Gu Ziming. Finally, her cold gaze landed on the middle-aged woman. She retorted, asking, "On what basis are you saying that he's a scum that colluded with the enemy to sell out his country?"
"His Majesty already said that the old general is a sinner who colluded with the enemy to sell out his country. Why can't I say anything?" The woman said smugly to Sihan.
Sihan couldn't help but snort coldly and say, "You also know how to say, the old general colluded with the enemy to sell out the country, not the young general to sell out the country. On what basis do you blame him for wantonly beating him up?"
The middle-aged woman didn't show any weakness as she looked at Sihan. "A father means a son. If the young general didn't collude with the enemy to sell his kingdom, then why did the emperor want to strip him of his military power?" And why did he seal the general's estate? Let alone traitorous, even if the entire capital were to be rumored, it is very likely that he would even kill his enemies bravely on the battlefield, which is very likely to be a lie. " With that, she glared angrily at Gu Ziming, who had fallen to the ground.
"Yes, yes, everything is probably fake. The old general also bravely killed his enemies on the battlefield in the past, but he's still selling off his country to his enemies even now!" The others echoed the middle-aged woman's words.
Sihan looked around at everyone present with an ice-cold expression. "They say the old general has evidence of a traitor, but what about him?" Where is his evidence? Show it to me. "
The middle-aged woman was immediately at a loss for words. Her expression was unsightly as she stood on the spot, not saying another word.
It was possible that this middle-aged woman that Sihan despised, "There's no evidence, right?" If you say that the young general colluded with the enemy and sold his country, that would be slander. When that time comes, I will bring you to the court and charge you with slander. The most important thing is that we have to lock him up in the prison! " He didn't have any evidence, yet he still dared to slander others?
The middle-aged woman's expression instantly became extremely unsightly. Her small hand hidden in her sleeve tightly clenched her fist as her pair of beautiful eyes viciously stared at Sihan. A hint of hatred flashed across his eyes.
The middle-aged woman didn't look at Sihan. Second, she pointed at Gu Ziming and said to the crowd, "Don't listen to her nonsense. The young general is definitely a traitor of the enemy, or else the emperor wouldn't have been able to strip him of his military power." Her expression made it seem like she would rather go to jail than to let Gu Ziming lose his reputation.
Sihan was immediately angered. She glared fiercely at the middle-aged woman, then walked in front of Gu Ziming and squatted down. Reaching out with both hands, she tore open Gu Ziming's clothes. With a ripping sound, Gu Ziming's well-built chest was revealed to the crowd.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp when they saw the wounds on Gu Ziming's well-built chest. Some of them even turned their heads away, not daring to look at Gu Ziming's chest.
Even Bing'er could not bear to look at the scars on Gu Ziming's body.
Sihan had expected Gu Ziming to have scars on his body, but she hadn't expected the scars on his body to be this shocking. Although Gu Ziming's chest was huge, not a single part of it was intact. It was unbearable to continue watching. Sihan retracted her gaze and looked at the middle-aged woman in the blink of an eye. She pointed at the scars on Gu Ziming's body. "Is there a general who sold his country to his enemies who has scars like this?"
The middle-aged woman's face alternated between green and white as she awkwardly stood on the spot, not knowing how to refute Sihan.
Sihan put on the clothes that Gu Ziming was wearing. These scars were his honor, his proof of bravery in killing the enemy. How could these villains who had slandered him be allowed to look at them!
Sihan raised her head and instructed Xiao Cui who was standing behind Bing'er, "Xiao Cui, go to the gold shop in front and get a few people."
Xiao Cui looked at Bing'er worriedly. Her mission was to protect Bing'er, and leaving her here by herself, she was worried.
Bing'er naturally knew what Xiao Cui was thinking, and she reached out to grab her little hand, "Let's go together." The Liang Family's gold shop was not far ahead.
The people who had surrounded and beaten Gu Ziming had all lowered their heads in guilt when they saw the multiple scars on his body. Only the middle-aged woman looked unwillingly at Gu Ziming, who was lying on the ground, as a sinister light flashed across her eyes.
Bing'er and Xiao Cui quickly led the shop assistants to Sihan. "Eldest Miss." The boss of the gold shop stood respectfully in front of Sihan and called out to her.
Sihan stood up, pointed at Gu Ziming, and ordered the golden shop owner, "Take him back to the general's estate."
"Yes, Eldest Miss." The owner of the golden shop glanced at the unconscious Gu Ziming and sighed. Who would have thought that the young general, who had galloped on the battlefield, would end up in such a state?
The shop owner and a few waiters carefully lifted up the unconscious Gu Ziming and placed him on the carriage behind them. The shop assistant then drove him back to the general's manor.
When the crowd saw that Gu Ziming had been carried onto the carriage, they immediately let out a sigh of relief. Only the middle-aged woman had an unwilling and helpless look on her face as she resentfully watched Gu Ziming being carried onto the carriage by a group of people.
Seeing that the servant was about to drive away with Gu Ziming in the carriage, the middle-aged woman turned around, intending to leave.
"Halt!" Sihan stood in front of the middle-aged woman, coldly staring at her. This middle-aged woman was definitely not a simple woman!
Sihan's cold shout caused the attendant to be momentarily stunned. He quickly pulled on the reins of the horse and looked at Sihan, thinking that the one Sihan had called to stop was him!
The middle-aged woman looked at Sihan with slight anger. "What do you want?"
Sihan looked coldly at the middle-aged woman. "Nothing, I just want to see your arm."
Bing'er looked at Sihan in surprise. "You suspect that she's from the Liao Family?" It is said that the Daliao people will have a wolf head tattoo on their left arm.
Everyone shifted their gazes onto Sihan and the middle-aged woman. They looked at the middle-aged woman with disbelief.
The middle-aged woman was immediately enraged. She viciously glared at Sihan. If her gaze could kill, Sihan would immediately die under her gaze. Afterwards, she looked at the crowd and pointed at Sihan. "Impudent! How could a woman like me be accepted by any of you men on the street? Look at my arm!"
Sihan smiled faintly. "I didn't say anything about letting us see your arms while you rolled up your sleeves on the street. Why are you so agitated!"
"You." The middle-aged woman immediately became extremely embarrassed. She angrily looked at Sihan and suddenly felt as if she had been played by this woman in men's clothing in front of her.
