"It must be tough to live among the commoners," Jian Guozhi said as he picked the teacup from the table. He brought it near his mouth when he heard Nianzu.
"Living among the commoners was fun. I get to see their lives. However, living as the commoner among the noble class is tough. You never know what a nobleman will do to you. There will be no one to hear you, to stand for you," asserted Nianzu.
"What about the justice system? The civil servants are appointed because of that reason only," Jian Guozhi asked him.
"It is only on papers, Brother Jian. A nobleman will win no matter what. I have experienced this myself. When my wife was harassed by the Village Headman of the noble class, no one came to the front. I felt helpless. Even the Royal Inspector listened to the Village Headman. For a commoner it is always a losing game," affirmed Nianzu and sipped the tea.
Jian Guozhi drank the tea and put the teacup down.
