Chu Yu sat down again.
A young man called out, and the people automatically cleared the way. Then they saw a carriage stop, from which a woman dressed in white with a veil descended first, followed by her helping a white-haired elderly lady down with great care and caution.
Under the old lady's wide sleeves, there were arms but no hands, and a face but no eyes - her eyeballs had clearly been gouged out.
Watching this, Yun Jinnian was suddenly transported back to her days in the cold palace, where she had been dismembered and silenced, living a fate worse than death.
Her whole being felt as if it had plunged into an icy cellar, the cold biting to the bone.
Next to Chu Yu, Magistrate Liao's face had already undergone a drastic change.
The woman in white slowly walked forward, supporting the old lady, and knelt down in front of Chu Yu.
