The remaining officials looked somewhat displeased: "This Chu Heng is really shameless, doesn't he want to build good relations with us court ministers?"
"What kind of relations? He's an imperial courtier with real power. We should still concern ourselves with our own affairs. Chu Heng doesn't have any weaknesses to exploit."
"Well, the Madam smells of money, with so much silver that she can't spend it all. Unlike us, being so incorruptible and accepting low prices," an official said begrudgingly.
"Ha, you all lack ability, and even if your shop opened, it wouldn't be as good as theirs. What's there to say?"
"Alas, Magistrate Zhang, tell me, hasn't Madam ever provoked these people? If Lord Chu knew that someone outside was insulting his lady, would he be angry?"
Zhang Zhi, looking like an old scholar: "Naturally, if someone is jealous of our good life and comes to insult my family, I also want to see how 'incorruptible' they really are."
