Qi Wensu also wrote about what happened yesterday, but the content of his article was completely different from Tiger Head's. This kid raised a few questions after writing about the incident, with the first one being: 'How could someone come up with such a scam and have the guts to carry it out?'
He had checked the laws of Great Qi. The most severe punishment for ordinary civilians who deceived nobles was to be exiled 1,000 miles away. Once convicted, just the fine could make the culprit go bankrupt.
Why were they willing to take such a huge risk to cheat?
Were they aware of the consequences should they be exposed?
If even ordinary civilians were like this, what about the slaves, whose fate laid in the hands of their master? How bold must they be to dare to lie to their master?
More importantly, someone actually fell for such a simple scam.
Of course, Dong Mao wasn't entirely responsible because Steward Ji had ulterior motives and wanted to scheme against Rong Xuan.
