As soon as she finished speaking, the Revenue Department Member struggled to break free. The maids beside her held her hands tightly, and she ran towards the thick pillar in the hall without hesitation and bumped into it!

With a dull thud, the body of the Revenue Department's Deputy Director flew backward like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.

Bright red blood flowed out from her head, soon staining the ground beneath her red. Even so, her face remained firm. She used her precious life as a bargaining chip to accuse Wan Qingyu of his heinous crimes!

The empress knew that the Deputy Minister of Revenue had come this time with the intention of risking his life to give her advice. What she never expected was that the Deputy Minister of Revenue would die so resolutely and bravely.

Before she died, she actually said such a thought-provoking words. Her death undoubtedly put the empress in a raging fire, forcing her not to indulge Wan Qingyu easily.

At this moment, Wan Qingyan quickly ran to the side of the Ministry of Revenue's deputy minister. She first stretched out her hand to test whether the deputy minister was still breathing!

After confirming that he was completely dead, Wan Qingyan feigned anxiety and turned to the Empress, asking loudly, "Queen Mother, what should we do? How should we properly handle such a tragic event?"

After saying that, Wan Qingyan glanced at the gloomy empress inconspicuously, secretly adding fuel to the fire. This time, Wan Qingyu would definitely be in big trouble!

Meanwhile, the empress held her forehead with her hand and sighed softly. Then, expressionlessly, she gave instructions to the maids beside her: "Come here, quickly gather up the body and bury it properly."

As soon as she finished speaking, the empress turned her head and stared at Wan Qingyu who was kneeling on the ground, her eyes full of disappointment and anger.

She said coldly, "Yu'er, even now, you still refuse to admit your mistakes? Well, then go to that prison and reflect on your mistakes!"

Not only that, all your positions will be stripped away. As for those who have had close ties with you in the past, I will also thoroughly investigate them one by one and will not tolerate any treachery! "

The empress released the hand that was pinching Wan Qingyu's chin, and waved her sleeves slightly towards the maids standing beside her, indicating that they should immediately escort Wan Qingyu to the prison.

Wan Qingyu listened quietly to the empress's unquestionable words, then closed her mouth tightly and did not say another word. She knew very well that if she continued to shout about injustice without knowing the situation, she would not be able to change the current situation!

Instead, it will only make the empress feel more annoyed and dissatisfied. By then, it will probably not be just a matter of being thrown into jail. She will most likely receive a more severe punishment!

Wan Qingjiao, who had been watching coldly from the side, could no longer contain his inner joy when he saw Wan Qingyu being ruthlessly taken away by the maids, and a smug smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

For Wan Qingjiao, it was a great pleasure in life to see Wan Qingyu, who had always been at odds with him and incompatible with him, end up in such a miserable state!

Wan Qingjiao raised his chin and looked straight in the direction where Wan Qingyu left with a look full of provocation and contempt. He smiled at the figure with an extremely arrogant and wanton smile, as if announcing to the world: "See, this is the end of going against me!"

The empress sat back on the phoenix chair. She clasped her hands elegantly across her chest and narrowed her eyes slightly. Her sharp and deep gaze was cast straight at the complacent Wan Qingjiao!

When Wan Qingjiao noticed the empress's cold and scrutinizing gaze, the corners of his mouth that had been raised seemed to be frozen in an instant, and he could no longer smile.

The Empress opened her red lips slightly and said coldly, "Jiao'er, do you really have nothing to say to me? You saw Yu'er's fate with your own eyes. I have warned you before, don't do such corrupt and lawless things, otherwise you will bear the consequences.

Now, I ask you again, tell me the truth. If you still act stubborn like Yu'er, don't blame me for disregarding the relationship between mother and daughter!"

When Wan Qingjiao heard the empress's extremely harsh words, her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly calmed down. She knew that she couldn't reveal any flaws at this moment, and her brain began to work rapidly.

After carefully recalling and confirming that she had properly disposed of all evidence that might have left a handle, she took a deep breath, raised her face, looked directly into the empress's majestic eyes without fear, and spoke in an extremely solemn tone.

"Mother Queen, please believe that I am completely different from my third sister. I have never committed any acts of corruption. I have always been an honest and upright person. I beg you to see through this and restore my reputation to a clean slate!"
