"Tell us, who asked you to put it? If you don't tell us, you will have to bear the responsibility. Your life... humph..." Auntie Qing added as she smiled coldly at the little maidservant and narrowed her eyes slightly.
"It's not me... I didn't, it's... My Lady. Please save me. I, I listened to your order. You asked me to hide the robe and the letter under these books. My Lady, please save me. I don't want to die. The letter was written to you by King Chu..." It seemed that the little maidservant was so frightened that she was incoherent, but she revealed more and more information unconsciously.
She had even brought up Feng Yuxuan as a matter of course.
"What? It's King Chu?"
"King Chu's robe and letters?"
"This... this... is not true, isn't it...?" Everyone was shocked. They had thought that Consort Xuan had a love affair with another man when she hadn't gotten married yet. They did not expect this person to be King Ch
"Aunt, I was talking about you. The maidservant said... she said that Consort Xuan's private letters were hidden in the gift sent to you. Did you... discover them?" Yu Siyan cast a glance at Mo Xuetong and mumbled, as if she was afraid. She mentioned the private letters again. Those people were sure that they were private letters."Private letters? What?" Mdm Yu looked confused."They are letters that Consort Xuan wrote to King Chu in private. Aunt, did you find them in the gift box? I heard that you used to ask people to sort out every family's gifts, and some packing boxes would be opened." Yu Siyan was secretly delighted, but she wore a puzzled look on her face. "Aunt, you will definitely prove that Consort Xuan is innocent, won't you?""Siyan, what are you talking about? I don't understand. What do you mean by 'Consort Xuan's letters'? I have never seen them. I have asked people to open the gifts sent by every manor, but I've never seen Her
The other young ladies were really burned, especially Wang Yilan. The burnt area on her leg was the largest, and the injury was also the most terrible. The female physician applied medicine to these ladies' injuries again before leaving."Second Miss Yu, you were sitting right at the end. With no one on one of your sides, Miss Wang was sitting on the other side. Did you hit Second Miss Yu, Miss Wang?" Mo Lan walked forward and asked in Mo Xuetong's place.Wang Yilan also figured out what had happened back then. She glared at Yu Siyan in anger and answered with hatred, "I didn't hit Yu Siyan. It was she who poured all the water on me." She was burned the most. Although medicine was applied to her wound, she still felt bursts of heart-wrenching pain. Thinking of the weird behavior of Yu Siyan, she immediately realized that she had been used."Second Miss Yu, no one hit you, but you poured all the water in your cup onto Miss Wang and even pretende
No one had expected this result. Even Feng Yuzhen and the Empress Dowager did not dare to believe it. It was just a small matter to frame Mo Xuetong, but how could it cause such a big commotion? If he had known this would happen, Feng Yuzhen would not have plotted against Mo Xuetong, nor provoke Feng Yuxuan and Feng Yuran at one time, which caused the matter to be brought to the imperial palace.The crux of the matter was not whether Mo Xuetong was really having an affair with Feng Yuxuan.As long as Feng Yuran believed that Mo Xuetong had an affair with Feng Yuxuan, then no matter how she tried to defend herself and how Feng Yuxuan tried to verify it, Feng Yuran could push the blame onto Feng Yuxuan. After this matter happened, Mo Xuetong would definitely die. Furthermore, she had made Feng Yuran a cuckold.In this case, it was obviously that Feng Yuran would deal with Feng Yuxuan until he defeated him! Moreover, there was the matter about the
Not to mention that the censor would chastise Feng Yuzhen with the pen, the people in the world would not stand by his side. It could be said that Feng Yuzhen was doomed.How could the Empress Dowager be willing to see her own grandson end up like this?"Your Majesty, Zhen'er must have been fooled by someone else. It must not be his intention. It might be his subordinates who did it themselves and he might really not know anything. He has a good relationship with King Chu and the other brothers. How could he do something like that?" The Empress Dowager paused and said anxiously. She did not continue the topic of asking the three judiciaries to deal with the case."Good relationship?" Emperor Zongwen gave a wintry smile and looked the Empress Dowager in the eye. The Empress Dowager had no choice but to look away. "Mother, King Ning really has a good relationship with his brothers. Not only does he treat them well, but he also treats me well. Whe
King Ning, Feng Yuzhen, had not been punished, but Auntie Qing, Mo Yufeng, Yu Feng, and Mdm Chen and her daughter were all punished. However, since the principal culprit King Ning wasn't criminalized, they naturally would not be sentenced to death. Each of them had been beaten 50 times. How could an ordinary person bear the punishment from the palace? Furthermore, the torturers knew that the Emperor was angry and thus worked even harder.Auntie Qing, Mdm Chen and her daughter were weak, and their legs were broken on the spot. Then they died soon after getting home.Not long after Mo Yufeng who had become a bloody pulp was carried home, Mo Huawen asked the doctor to take a look at him. Then, he gave the young man some medicine and silver and asked the manservant to carry him to an inn, find a room and throw him there. Then, Mo Huawen opened the ancestral temple and deleted him from the Mo family tree. From then on, Mo Yufeng had nothing to do with the Mo Man
When it was daybreak, Madam Qu went to pay respects to the Old Madam with her servants. The Old Madam was currently in poor health and did not ask Madam Qu to pay her respects all the time. This was especially so after the incident caused by Yun Ya. The Old Madam had become colder towards Madam Qu. The latter had sensed it and thus usually would not come to her place when there was nothing needed to deal with.It was rare for her to come over to pay her respects to the Old Madam. Before she walked into the room, she heard the Old Madam and Nanny Shen, the personal nanny, talking about something, along with a burst of laughter. Apparently, the Old Madam was in a good mood. Madam Qu heaved a sigh of relief and her eyes flashed slightly. Then, she put on a big smile on her face before entering.A maidservant had already seen her coming and hurried in to report to the Old Madam. Then someone had come to lift the curtain for her.When she entered th
Coming out of the Old Madam's courtyard and returning to her own courtyard, Madam Qu was so angry that she gritted her teeth and almost shattered them. She grasped the things by her hand and threw them to the ground. In a while, all kinds of expensive porcelains were broken all over the ground. The young and old maidservants were so frightened that they trembled. They stood at the door and did not dare to move, afraid that they would annoy their mad mistress and get themselves into trouble.When the things in the room were almost smashed, Madam Qu stopped, panting. She sat in a pile of broken utensils with a gloomy face. After a long time, she stood up and ordered the nanny coming from her parents' home to come in. Then she took out a letter from her arms. It was the letter that she had planned to send out of the manor today. It was the evidence that she had collected after a long time of collating. Originally, she wanted to send it out in person.It seemed
It was the afternoon of the second day when Mo Xuetong woke up from her dazed state and opened her eyes slightly. Seeing the familiar curtain embroidered with flowers and butterflies, she inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief. Sensing her body, she felt that she was okay, and just a little weak."Her Lady has woken up.""Her Lady has woken up!""Come on, bring the medicine to Her Lady and bring some preserves Her Lady had eaten last time to help her have the medicine.""Okay, I'll go and take it now. Go and check on Her Lady's health first!"Mo Xuetong could hear the excited babble of her personal maidservants. Even Mo Lan, who had always been calm, seemed to have lost her composure.Mo Xuetong propped herself up and tried to sit up. She touched her head gently. Someone had already propped her up and placed a soft cushion behind her back. Mo Lan and the others helped her take the medicine and then she regai
