After the emperor finished talking about his plan for the Zhen family, he began to clear the area. Except for Prince Guo and Zhen Huan, and the guards who controlled them, everyone else was driven out by the emperor.

Beile Shen was as quiet as a mute. When the emperor told him that he could leave, he no longer cared about his dear seventeenth brother and ran away quickly.

Zhen Yurao was afraid that the emperor would do something to her sister, so she wanted to stay and protect her sister.

The emperor did not agree to her request this time. He asked Zhen Yurao to go to Changshou Palace to prepare for the reception tonight. Zhen Yurao knew that she could not push her luck any further, so she walked away looking back every few steps.

An Lingrong actually wanted to stay and watch the show, as she had a hunch that the Emperor would not let Zhen Huan and Prince Guo have an easy time.

Although the emperor drove them out, it didn't matter. In order to watch Zhen Huan's good show, An Lingrong took the initiative to buy a real-time monitoring system that required 100 points to watch once, just to see Zhen Huan's end.

After letting Baoshu place his favorite fruits and snacks, he left. An Lingrong turned on the real-time surveillance to watch what happened next in Jingren Palace.

-------------------------------------

Jingren Palace.

The eunuchs in yellow jackets held down Prince Guo and Zhen Huan as they continued to struggle and beg for mercy.

The emperor first took Lingxi from the wet nurse's hands, and then in front of Zhen Huan and Prince Guo, he covered Lingxi's mouth and nose with his own hands.

"Wow--" The child's sharp cry broke out immediately. But the emperor did not feel distressed at all. Instead, he felt indescribably happy when he saw Prince Guo's incompetent rage and Zhen Huan's continuous kowtowing.

Not long after, the child's crying stopped completely. The emperor threw Lingxi to the ground without mercy, just like throwing away garbage.

Zhen Huan finally broke free from the guards' obstruction. She held the baby Lingxi in her arms, and when she found that she had stopped breathing, she cried heart-wrenchingly.

Prince Guo kept shouting at the emperor: "Brother, if you have any problem, come to me. Please let Hongzhou go! Brother, everything is caused by me. No matter how wrong it is, it is my fault. The child is innocent, brother!"

However, when his royal brother heard his wife's brother's plea for mercy, he not only did not feel the slightest bit of sympathy, but instead picked up a long sword and cut Hongzhou in two.

After witnessing her two children die tragically in front of her in an instant, Zhen Huan went completely crazy.

When An Lingrong saw this scene, she didn't feel soft-hearted or miserable at all. Instead, she felt as refreshed as drinking a glass of boiled water in the hot summer!

This is the reward for Zhen Huan’s plot to kill her own child in her previous life!

After killing these two bastards, the emperor finally vented his anger. He put the sword back into the scabbard of the guard and ordered people to bring Prince Guo back to the palace and temporarily confine him. Zhen Huan was taken back to Shuyuxuan to let her fend for herself.

After An Lingrong saw this scene, the time for real-time monitoring was up. She would not renew the subscription for such an expensive item unless it was necessary.

However, An Lingrong actually still suspected that Zhen Huan was just pretending to be crazy. After all, this was the ruthless person who had aborted her own child in the previous life to frame the Queen. An Lingrong didn't believe that she was really that crazy. After deciding to let Kang Luhai carefully monitor Zhen Huan's every move, An Lingrong thought of Huanbi again.

Zhen Huan's affair was finally settled, but the follow-up events were not over yet.

An Lingrong could never forget the humiliation that Huanbi had inflicted on her in her previous life. When she was favored for the first time and went to present Zhen Huan with the Floating Light Brocade, Huanbi came up to her with a sarcastic tone; when Zhen Huan lost power and she was angry with the Emperor, she blamed An Lingrong for not speaking well of Zhen Huan in front of the Emperor; when Concubine Xi returned to the palace and met Huanbi on the palace road, Huanbi threatened to kill her.

Thinking that Zhen Huan's faction now has Zhen Yurao to take over, the emperor might still have feelings for Zhen Huan, but that might not be the case for Huanbi. An Lingrong, without any scruples, called Baoshu over. She wanted to first let Huanbi experience all the suffering she had endured, and then send her off - tortured and killed!

While An Lingrong was busy playing tricks on others, the emperor was not idle either.

Zhen Huan's words "Yixiu killed Chunyuan" successfully caused all the eunuchs and palace maids around the Queen to be sent to the Ministry of Punishment.

Jianqiu was as loyal to the queen as ever, and even when she was beaten to a pulp, she didn't say anything wrong about the queen. But it was useless for her to just keep her mouth shut, because Jiang Fuhai had already confessed everything he should. So the emperor came to Jingren Palace again to interrogate Yixiu about why she was so cruel.

At this point, Yixiu's words "I can't do it" failed to soften the emperor's heart. When he was about to depose the empress, Zhuxi from Shoukang Palace came over and said that the empress dowager asked the emperor to come over.

The emperor could not accept the fact that the queen had killed Chunyuan for a while. He did not understand why the queen mother wanted to protect Yixiu: "Madam, Wanwan is also your niece!"

How could the Queen Mother not know that Yixiu's methods were vicious, and Chunyuan was also her niece?

However, for the glory of the Ulanara and Uya clans, she still had to bite the bullet and keep Yixiu as the queen.

The emperor was so angry that he wanted to hurt the empress dowager so much. He started by saying, "The empress dowager has made great contributions to my throne and the glory of the Ulanara and Uya families. I am very grateful to you for getting rid of Longkodo, the great threat to me."

"You! Emperor, how did you get the throne? How did you treat your meritorious officials and brothers? The late emperor is watching from heaven." Or what if they are mother and son? The empress dowager obviously knew where the emperor's pain point was.

The emperor refused to give in. The late emperor had already ascended to heaven, but my fourteenth brother, whom the Empress Dowager cared about the most, still had to make a living under my command.

The emperor used the fourteenth prince to stab the empress dowager's heart again. He said that he would never let the fourteenth prince come back in his lifetime, and asked her not to worry.

The Queen Mother kept saying “you you you” for a long time and then died of anger.

The emperor had mixed feelings, but in the end, his feelings for the empress dowager prevailed. Only after the empress dowager's funeral did he tell the empress that "they would never see each other again in this life or the next."

There have been many funerals inside and outside the palace recently.

First, the twins, the Seventh Prince and the Fifth Princess, died of an acute illness, and their biological mother, Concubine Wan, could not bear the blow and went mad; then, the Seventeenth Prince, Prince Guo, broke his leg while riding a horse, and because the wound was infected and not properly treated, he died within a few days.

The Seventeenth Master was gone, and among the three women in his backyard, Concubine An died a few days later because she was too sad; Concubine Meng miscarried Prince Guo's only posthumous child because she was too sad, and it was said that she was later taken back to the family of Duke Pei; and Concubine Ye, the Seventeenth Master, even died by colliding her head with her coffin in his mourning hall.

This was bad enough, but who would have thought that the Queen Mother heard the news of Prince Guo's untimely death and was so sad that she died not long after. The Queen felt guilty for not managing the harem and taking good care of the Queen Mother, so she asked to live in seclusion in Jingren Palace, where she chanted scriptures and prayed for the Queen Mother, and never left Jingren Palace again.

Amid the bombardment of so many explosive news, the death of Huanbi, an insignificant deposed concubine, seems particularly insignificant.
