Finally, the woman in a red long-sleeved dress sitting nearby could no longer endure it. With a face full of sorrow and indignation, she rushed toward the Eldest Prince and knelt down urgently, pleading for her children:
"Eldest Prince, it's because my young ones are ignorant and reckless. I beg the Prince to forgive the siblings. As a humble woman, I bow to you, pleading for mercy for them both."
Having said this, she kowtowed on the Kangwu Stone once, again and again, creating a "thump, thump" sound.
The Kangwu Stone on the ground was rough, unlike the smooth floor.
After just a few bows, blood started to slightly seep from her forehead!
The woman did not cease her actions and continued to kowtow.
Ah Zhi remained silent, recalling a rainy night with banana trees drizzling in the Tingling Garden last year when she had knelt to the Little Traitor in the same manner. So much time had passed since then.
