"You wretched woman! How dare you commit such debauchery! You have completely tarnished the reputation of the Lin family!" Old Lady Lin seemed to understand the situation as soon as she heard the name, and she picked up her cane, ready to strike.
Madam Shen was caught off guard, and found herself beaten mercilessly with the cane, crying out in pain.
The room quickly plunged into chaos, with Lin Zhengyang stomping his foot, shouting impatiently, "Oh, mother! Please, stop your random meddling!"
He then turned to Madam Shen and said, "You know exactly how your nephew, Shen Yeting, made it onto the list and into Hanlin Academy!"
Today, upon his court dismissal, he was stopped by the Regent King, who also called for Shen Yeting from the Hanlin Academy.
Just two hours ago.
——Ministry of Rites.
