Chapter 420: Blocking the Door

Marquess Yue was still immersed in the portrait of the woman, his mind adrift as if his soul had traveled to another world, utterly unaware that his house was in turmoil.

The Marquis Residence in Lingnan had always been held in high esteem for many years, when had there ever been an incident where common folk blocked the door?

The Marchioness, leaning on her large cane and supported by her two daughters-in-law, stood at the entrance. To prevent the crowd from rioting, many guards stood in front of them with weapons at the ready.

"Marchioness, in broad daylight, your Marquis Residence took away Doctor Gao, yet you cannot state her crime. How do you justify this to the people? If you cannot provide a reasonable explanation, we truly won't be leaving," they said.

There was safety in numbers, and they were not afraid of the Marquis Residence.
