Three days later, the case of Shen Yuan accidentally killing Sun Cainan came to an end. Shen Yuan would be executed at the Meridian Gate.
Countless commoners rushed to spread the news, all wanting to see how this young man with a bright future would end up like this. Some people felt sorry for Shen Yuan, and some people scolded Jing Chuchu for being a femme fatale. All of a sudden, the capital became lively.
Shen Yuan had probably never thought that such a day would befall him. He was proud and arrogant and wanted to climb up the ladder. He wanted everyone to see his achievements, but now, he was being pointed at by the "peasants". He probably felt extremely humiliated.
