After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

The princess glanced at Prince Rui with a melancholy look.

Once again, she understood clearly the position of Chen's mother and son in his heart, and she felt extremely disappointed. As his first wife, she had never received such care from him. Now, seeing him acting like this for a concubine, it was really ridiculous!

"Jiang Liu!" Prince Rui suddenly called out, and quickly came in, pretending to be a guard.

Everyone looked around.

"Your Highness." Jiang Liu bowed.

"Go and check, who made this voodoo doll? Who is the mastermind behind it?" At present, the only person who can be confirmed is Concubine Ye, and it is still unknown whether the other people in the backyard are involved.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Concubine Ye was completely panicked only now. How could she not understand from the look in the prince's eyes just now that he already knew that she was the mastermind, and now he sent people to investigate only because he suspected that there were other people involved. She was finished.

Moqin and Qingyue's faces were extremely pale.

Qiao Rongjin was still kneeling on the ground. She knew that the reason why Prince Rui did this was definitely because Concubine Ye had offended his weak spot, the mother and son of the Chen family. This was not just a matter involving her. For the sake of the mother and son of the Chen family, Prince Rui would probably not let Concubine Ye go.

The reason why he asked people to investigate now was naturally because he suspected that there was something fishy going on between him and someone else. After all, no matter whether Qingyue had betrayed him or not, she was indeed the head maid of Haitang Courtyard. She had followed him before and had just said a lot of specious words. Also, she had a criminal record before, so it was normal for him not to believe her.

Next, the group waited in Qiao Rongjin's yard.

Qiao Rongjin was already injured, and no one asked her to get up. It was really uncomfortable to kneel, so she got up by herself. Anyway, no one cared about her little actions at this time.

After a while, Qiao Rongjin saw the guard come in and whispered something in the prince's ear.

Then, Prince Rui glanced at everyone present, scaring them so much that they tried to reduce their presence. Concubine Ye was trembling all over. After a while, he finally said, "Let someone in."

Hearing the sound, everyone straightened up instantly and looked outside the door, including Qiao Rongjin.

Then a nanny and a maid were escorted into the house by a guard.

After Concubine Ye saw clearly the two people being escorted here, she staggered back a step, her face became even paler and her eyes were filled with despair.

This is her wet nurse! And the maid Mo Hua who has served her since she was a child!

As soon as they came in, the two began to beg for mercy, "Please spare my life, my lord! Please spare my life! It was the servant who was bewitched. It was the servant who wanted to avenge Qiao on behalf of the master. The master was completely unaware of this!"

"It's all my own decision, it's none of my business!"

"Tell me, how do you plan to take revenge on the Qiao family?" Prince Rui looked at the two men with a cold face as they took all the blame on themselves in order to save Concubine Ye.

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Concubine Ye. They didn't expect that she had such a loyal servant.

All the concubines who had entered the palace earlier knew about the grudge between Concubine Ye and Qiao.

Thinking back to when Concubine Ye had just entered the mansion and was still a lady, she accidentally offended Mrs. Qiao. She was slapped by Mrs. Qiao when she was pregnant and didn't know it, causing her to lose her balance and fall, leading to miscarriage. It was normal for Concubine Ye to bear a grudge until now, and what the two servants said now was actually valid.

Then, the two of them told the whole story one by one.

Prince Rui glanced coldly at Concubine Ye. Humph! She actually has two loyal servants who are willing to take the blame and die for her.

There was no one else involved in this matter, and Prince Rui looked a little better.

However, there was no trace of Qiao's hand in this. She was really wronged. He glanced at Qiao in surprise. After all, Qiao had always admired him. Ever since she knew that he was interested in Chen's mother and son, she had been finding fault with them like a madman. He knew this best. It seemed that he had reflected a lot during this period of house arrest.

Concubine Ye was already in tears at this moment. She didn't expect that at this critical moment, the wet nurse and Mo Hua did not give her away, but instead took all the blame on themselves.

She couldn't lose all of this. How would her daughter live without her in this cannibalistic backyard? She couldn't imagine it, so the best outcome was for the nanny and Mo Hua to take the blame. But they were her nanny and Mo Hua, who had grown up with her!

"Now that the truth is clear, these two servants who framed their master and used witchcraft should be dragged out and beaten to death. The palace cannot tolerate such vicious people." Prince Rui looked at the two men below, whose bodies were as thin as sieves, with extremely cold eyes and spoke in a cold voice.

"Yes." After saying that, the guard reached out and dragged the two men out.

"Stop! Stop! Prince! Prince! Please spare the lives of the wet nurse and Mo Hua. It's all my fault. Please punish me!" Concubine Ye rushed forward and knelt down in front of Prince Rui. The arrogance on her charming face was gone. It was filled with panic and tears. She couldn't lose her wet nurse and Mo Hua!

"Drag her away." Prince Rui glanced coldly at Concubine Ye, warning her not to be ungrateful. Killing only two of her servants was already giving her face, otherwise she, the culprit, would not even be qualified to stay in the palace.

If he hadn't thought about the fact that her father and brother were now more powerful, he would have killed her today.

Concubine Ye's heart sank when she saw this. Fear spread in her heart. She fell to the ground powerlessly and could only watch in despair as the wet nurse and Mo Hua were dragged away mercilessly.

Then the next sentence from King Rui made her completely despair.

"Concubine Ye failed to discipline her servants, causing them to frame the master in the backyard and even dared to use dirty tricks like witchcraft. She is no longer worthy of the position of concubine and is demoted to a concubine. Lin'er will be raised by the princess for the time being."

Hearing this, everyone was extremely surprised. She even lost her position as a concubine. She was afraid that she would never be able to reach such a high position again.

Qiao Rongjin was also very surprised. She thought that she would be confined at most, but she didn't expect that her position would be directly reduced. This male protagonist is really cruel! You know, it is so difficult to rise to this position. Now she has fallen into the dust. This is more painful than killing Concubine Ye. If it weren't for Concubine Ye's family, I'm afraid she would be sentenced to death.

I have to say, Qiao Rongjin's truth is revealed.

"No! Prince, I was wrong! I was really wrong. Lin'er is my life! Please don't let her leave me!" Concubine Ye said as she walked up to Prince Rui and grabbed his trouser leg. Tears fell like crazy, she really knew she was wrong.

Prince Rui's face was cold and impatient, and he asked Wang Fuyang to pull the man away.

Concubine Ye looked at the man she loved so much and finally lost her heart. She said she would sentence her wet nurse to death and he would not even give her Lin'er. How ironic!

Immediately, Concubine Ye couldn't bear the blow and fainted.

Prince Rui ordered coldly, "Carry the person to Ningxiangju and ask the court doctor to take a look." Ningxiangju is Concubine Ye's current residence.

Seeing Concubine Ye and the people around her end up like this, Qiao Rongjin felt very uneasy.

As expected, the backyard of the palace is a den of dragons and tigers, and anyone's random words can determine your life or death.

Qiao Rongjin reminded himself again that for the sake of his life, he must not offend the male protagonist. Saving his life is the most important thing. This is too scary!

After dealing with this matter, Prince Rui finally remembered Qiao Rongjin who had been wrongly accused for a long time. He turned around and found that Qiao was looking at him. Looking at those slightly frightened eyes, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Then he frowned slightly and said coldly, "Qiao was frightened today. The house arrest will be lifted today. I hope you have really changed for the better."

After that, everyone looked at Qiao. They didn't expect that she would be the winner today.

The two-year house arrest was lifted today, what a blessing.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Rongjin was happy. It was good that the house arrest was lifted, otherwise many things would be inconvenient. Before she could say anything, Prince Rui spoke again.

“Princess, I leave the rest of the matters to you. Kill those who need to be killed.” After he finished speaking, Prince Rui left with his men without even looking at anyone.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Qiao Rongjin followed everyone and bowed to greet and see Prince Rui off.

Then only the princess and a group of people who came to watch the fun were left in the room.

Looking at Moqin and Qingyue on the ground, the princess' eyes flashed with disgust, "Qiao, this Qingyue is a maid in your courtyard, what are you going to do with her?"
