I was chased by my sickly junior brother who had two lives

Sima Feier continued to argue: "My hurting Gao Yan does not mean that I have made a mistake in Daliang. I have never done anything wrong to Daliang!"

Wei Lang was furious and sternly rebuked, "Sima Fei'er, you severely injured Gao Yan and abused him in such a cruel way, which directly led to the destruction of Shouchun City and the death of Chen Jue's father. You have committed such a heinous crime, and you still don't repent?"

Sima Feier was not afraid at all and shouted loudly: "You are just talking nonsense, you have to show us the evidence!"

Wei Lang snorted coldly, took out a confession with a stern look, and said sternly: "This is your confession of going to Shouchun City to collect feces and urine, and teaching the local women to make gold water. During the Battle of Shouchun, you did not listen to the general's command, and led a team of soldiers to raid the enemy's rear without authorization, causing our army's formation to be in chaos and the enemy seized the flaw. Isn't this your fault?"

Sima Feier still argued: "The battlefield is in chaos, how could they know where a weak woman like me who doesn't know martial arts is? How could I cause chaos in my army's formation?"

Although she seemed calm at this moment, she was actually in a panic inside, constantly thinking about how to deal with this increasingly unfavorable situation.

Wei Lang took out another confession and said, "This is the testimony of the soldiers who were present at the time. How can you deny it?"

Sima Fei'er's eyes dodged, and she quickly calculated in her mind: "The situation was complicated at the time, and everyone was busy with their own affairs, so it is inevitable that their memory is wrong."

Wei Lang pressed on, "Unjust? Then why did you escape alone before the city was captured?"

At this time, Chen Jue also stood up, pointed at Sima Fei'er and said angrily: "Sima Fei'er, in order to survive, you actually let the old and young in Shouchun City serve as a cushion for your flesh!"

Sima Fei'er argued, "No, it never happened! The situation was critical at the time and everyone escaped on their own. How can you put the blame on me alone?"

Chen Jue shouted angrily, "I was in Shouchun City at the time, responsible for guarding Gao Yan. It was because the people of Qing attacked the city desperately, and you were afraid of death, so you fled the city with a large group of women under the pretext of taking away the wives and daughters of your fellow villagers."

Chen Jue slammed the table heavily and said angrily: "I didn't expect that these women would be insulted in public. You escaped being abused because you were covered in feces. My father just couldn't bear to see so many women being abused and tortured by the Qing Kingdom, so he rushed out of the city, triggering a chain reaction. This is all your fault!"

Sima Feier continued to argue: "This was Chen Changhui's own idea, not my own decision. The situation got out of control and it had nothing to do with me."

Chen Jue snorted coldly, took out another stack of confessions, and pressed on, "Look, these are the confessions of generals whose wives and daughters were raped to death. These generals hate you!"

Chen Jue raised his voice so high that the whole hall could hear it. "It was because my sister helped the generals of Shouchun City win the battle this time that they had the opportunity to come to the capital. They had no chance to come to the capital to find you before, let alone report you. At this point, you still want to deny it?"

Sima Feier was stubborn and shouted angrily, "How could I be at fault? The tragic experiences of those women were clearly caused by the people of Qing. Why do you want to put the blame on me?"

She took a breath, shedding tears of grievance. "In that chaotic and dangerous situation, where life and death were unpredictable, I was lucky enough to be able to save my own life. Could they expect me to save everyone? That's simply impossible!"

Sima Fei'er was filled with fear and anxiety at this time, but she still pretended to be calm and tried to cover up her guilt with anger.

She then retorted with indignation, "Besides, these generals all hold official positions. If they really wanted to file a complaint and seek redress, they could have directly presented it to the emperor in Shouchun. Why would they have to wait three years to gather in Kyoto and go to the Dali Temple to file a complaint?

She trembled her lips and shed tears in grievance. "Such a long time has passed, and now you are thinking of digging up the past. Isn't there some hidden conspiracy here? It's obvious that someone is deliberately trying to frame me! Maybe after Chen Jia arrived in Shouchun City, he instigated these generals to frame me with ulterior motives, so that I would be ruined!"

Her voice trembled slightly, but she continued to affirm herself, telling herself not to be defeated.

Chen Jia immediately refuted it sternly. He looked at Sima Feier with a firm gaze, and his tone was serious but powerful.

"Sima Fei'er, stop talking nonsense! The generals are not as unruly as you, Sima Fei'er! They are all people who know the truth and follow the rules. Shouchun City has been fighting hard for three whole years. The generals have devoted themselves to fighting for the country. At that time of war and life and death, how could they have the time to tangle with you, Sima Fei'er?"

Every word Chen Jia said hit Sima Fei'er like a sledgehammer, leaving her with nowhere to escape.

"Now that the battle of Shouchun has finally come to an end and the situation has stabilized, they naturally have some free time to settle this old score. They are all righteous people, and they won't confuse right and wrong like you do!"

Chen Jia pointed out incisively, "The reason why these generals didn't go to Yang Xiu's mansion to cause trouble for you was because you received a national award at that time. If they went to Yang Xiu's mansion to cause trouble, they would be ignorant."

Chen Jia pressed forward step by step, not giving Sima Feier any chance to breathe.

"So, they chose to follow the formal procedures and report you, Sima Fei'er, legally, compliantly, and reasonably, so that you will pay the price for your crimes!"

Sima Fei'er's psychological defenses were not broken. Instead, she widened her eyes, put her hands on her hips, and asked Chen Jia back in a menacing manner.

"The people who raped the general's wife and daughter were from Qing, not me. A murderer must pay with his life, especially when it's a hostile country like Qing. This further proves that my abuse of Gao Yan and his group of inhuman beasts was correct."

After hearing this, Chen Jia pointed at Sima Fei'er and loudly rebuked him, "If you hadn't abused Gao Yan, how could Gao Yan's brother, Qing's Crown Prince Gao Yang, have issued a death order to attack Shouchun? And how could Shouchun have changed hands several times between Daliang and Daqing in the past three years, paying such a heavy price?"

Sima Fei'er still insisted, stiffened her neck, crossed her arms in front of her chest, and raised her voice to emphasize.

"War comes with a price, and this is not something a civilian like me can decide. The source of all this is the war, not me!"

"Your actions have made the situation worse. So many innocent lives have been lost because of you, but you have no sense of guilt."

Sima Feier clenched her fists and shouted excitedly: "I am worthy of Daliang and have never let Daliang down! The people of Daqing were the ones who hurt the generals' wives and daughters. These generals of Daliang couldn't even protect their own wives and daughters. This is a manifestation of their incompetence! Their wives and daughters abandoned the city at that time. This is the price they should pay for their actions!"

Chen Jia took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart and said, "You are really good at quibbling!"

Outside the window, the wind was howling, making the windows creak, as if it was also angry about this heated argument.
