Cripple Zhao panicked and hurriedly scolded He Cuilian for being uncouth.

A woman's virtue was like a mountain, a shackle in the hearts of many women.

He Cuilian bit her lip. After a long while, she retorted, "You are the one without any virtue."

Everyone laughed loudly. Cripple Zhao was so angry that his face was ashen. He scolded the men, "Laugh, you're still laughing. Your wives will try to divorce you when you return home later!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the men's expressions immediately changed. They changed their stand and slandered He Cuilian for being shameless, that she was already anxious to find a man before the divorce.

He Cuilian was a weak woman after all. She was shocked by the men's eloquence, but no woman stood up for He Cuilian because they were afraid of being implicated.

Until Cui Lingyi stood up from the crowd and said angrily, "The virtues of women have long been abolished. Are you questioning the Great Empress?"

.....

In an instant, the men obediently shut up.

He Cuilian looked at Cui Lingyi gratefully. Cui Lingyi comforted her. "Don't be afraid. The marriage law will uphold justice for you!"

He Cuilian mustered her courage again and said firmly, "Lord, I want a divorce!"

If she had some hesitation before, now, Cripple Zhao had completely stripped away that hesitation.

Cripple Zhao was furious. He rushed forward and wanted to hit someone, but he was stopped by the officials on the spot.

Cui Lingyi was the Great Empress's good friend. Her presence here meant that the Great Empress had been secretly paying attention to this case.

Lord Shi immediately felt his scalp tingle and asked Cripple Zhao if he would accept the divorce.

If half of his assets were to be taken away, he would become the greatest joke in history. Of course, Cripple Zhao refused.

If he refused, Lord Shi could only follow the divorce procedure.

First, they had to confirm all the assets of Cripple Zhao and He Cuilian and confirm if Lame Zhao had really made a mistake. Finally, they need to obtain all evidence before making a decision.

It was impossible to finish the case in a day.

The women followed the discussion eagerly, while the men waited uneasily to berate the marriage law.

Finally, seven days later, the case was tried again. Lord Shi confirmed He Cuilian's decision to get a divorce and confirmed all the assets under her name.

Cripple Zhao realized that the apartment he had bought for Su Yue and all the things he had bought had been converted into silver and included in the assets. He said in disbelief, "This is my silver. Don't I have the right to use it?"

Lord Shi said what the women were looking forward to. "All your assets were saved up after marriage. He Cuilian has the right to control the couple's common assets, so these things should be included."

Cripple Zhao was petrified. At the same time, he regretted showing off so openly when he bought something for Su Yue. If he had not been so flamboyant, Lord Shi would definitely not have been able to find out.

The women's eyes lit up. They couldn't wait to go back and snatch things from the vixens.

The men immediately wailed. In the past few days, their wives were about to fly above their heads. If they waited for this case to be settled, how could they live freely in the future?
