Chapter 557: Chapter 557 Swear

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

King An saw that all the evidence was focused on Mrs. Shen. He looked at Mrs. Shen and asked, “Mrs. Shen, in the face of their accusations, do you admit it?”

Mrs. Shen nodded and looked like a pig waiting to be slaughtered.

“Who instructed you?”

“No one. Madam is my savior, so I only wanted to protect her from harm.”

“So, you want to take all the blame on yourself.” Yang Wanning gritted her teeth.

“I did it, alone.” Mrs. Shen raised her head and swept her eyes over her indifferently.

Yang Wanning was furious after hearing that. She thought Mrs. Shen would speak up after seeing that Mrs. Cui was on death row.

She didn’t expect Mrs. Shen to protect Mrs. Cui, even if it meant her death. The relationship between this master and servant was deep.

Mrs. Shen was just a widow whom her in-laws chased out. Her maiden family had disappeared because of the disaster, so she had no one related. She did not have anyone who she could be threaten with.

Yang Wanning could only look to King An for help.

King An also had a headache. Looking at Mrs. Shen, he knew she was unafraid of death. Or rather, she did not care about life and death anymore. It was difficult to get such a person to speak.

Yang Wanning saw the difficult position she was in and was at a loss.

Gu Chengrui happened to notice the smug look in Mrs. Cui’s eyes.

However, he couldn’t do anything openly in public. At this moment, Zhou Ying’s voice suddenly sounded in his mind, “Ask her to swear to Mother God; the more deathly her oath, the better.”

Gu Chengrui was stunned by the suggestion. After he returned to his senses, he was thrilled. He had a strong backer, so there was no reason to be afraid of her not confessing.

He looked at Mrs. Shen and spoke up, “We’ll put a rest to this if you swear to Mother God that if you are doing this to protect Mrs. Cui, you will be a slave for ten generations. Swear that your descendants will be slaves for generations. Swear that your family will have no descendants.”

After hearing this, Mrs. Shen looked at him in shock because his suggestion was vicious. This would render her unable to turn over a new leaf forever.

Yang Wanning nodded in agreement and said, “Yes, everyone knows Mother God has manifested her spirit. 1 think she will have her opinion. If you swear, as my cousin said, I will believe you then.”

Everyone’s expression changed immediately when they heard the word ‘Mother God’.

Of course, most people were excited; they all wanted Mrs. Shen to take this oath.

They wanted to see if Mother God would punish these villains or not.

Gu Chengrui noticed that Mrs. Shen was staring intently at him. He glanced at her and said, “Don’t feel wronged. After all, there are lives on your hands. Since you have sinned, you should be prepared to pay your debts.”

“Yes, swear, swear! As long as you swear, we will believe that Mrs. Cui is innocent!”

“That’s right! Hurry up and swear! We can see if Mother God will care about these things.”

“Swear, swear, swear…”

Mrs. Shen looked at the chanting crowd below and did not know what to do.

King An crossed his arms and watched the show from the side. If this matter really succeeded, then it meant there would be a way to deal with even the most stubborn criminals in the future.

Yang Wanning saw Mrs. Shen was finally panicking and pressed on, “Make an oath. If you dare say it, I’ll believe all of this is your doing alone.”

Mrs. Shen gritted her teeth and glanced at Mrs. Cui. Seeing her staring at her nervously, she finally closed her eyes and said, “I, Mrs. Shen, swear that if I protect Cui Fengzhi, I, I, I…

At this point, she couldn’t continue. She was afraid that if Mother God really manifested, she would never have a good life.

Just as everyone was about to urge her, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck down in front of Mrs. Chen, scaring her so much that she screamed and immediately fled backwards..
