The wish of the Qing Dynasty is fulfilled

It was not until Zhen Huan's voice was hoarse that the two smart maids appeared slowly, their expressions full of impatience.

This behavior made Zhen Huan even more frightened.

She was afraid that she would "confess" too late and it would not be enough to cover up her crime.

"Mammy, I admit it."

Nanny Jingqi opened the cell door with a pout and brought Zhen Huan out again, but she secretly looked at her where she couldn't notice, with a look of stealing joy in her eyes.

Eunuch Su in front of the emperor is really powerful. He ignores Zhen Huan and pretends not to care, which is more effective than scaring her.

The joy they felt at the moment soon turned into solemnity.

what? !

The personal maid that Zhen Huan brought into the palace was actually her half-sister!

It was even more shocking when Huanbi was brought over for a careful interrogation.

Zhen Yuandao secretly kept the daughter of a criminal official, fathered a child with her, and brought the child back to his mansion to serve as a personal servant to his legitimate daughter?

This family is really lacking in virtue!

The father lets one of his daughters serve another, and the elder sister also knows that the maidservant serving her is a concubine's sister.

The most outrageous thing is that Huanbi is also aware of her own status. She does not blame Zhen Yuandao and Zhen Huan. "Father and the young lady treat me very well! The food and supplies are much better than those of other servants!"

Nanny Jingqi was speechless. This old Zhen family was clearly bullying a fool. They treated you better than a servant, so they treated you well? If your mother were alive, even if she had to go out to beg for food, she would still let you be a good daughter, not someone else's slave!

Not to mention that Huanbi was still fantasizing that her mother's tablet could be placed in the Zhen family's ancestral temple.

Nanny Jingqi looked at Huanbi speechlessly.

Fortunately, your mother passed away early, otherwise, not only would her memorial tablet not be placed in the Zhen family, she herself would have to move forward and backward with the Zhen family whether she lived or died, with no choice.

What's more, your mother is the daughter of a criminal!

Who knows if you have evil intentions or even want to take the opportunity to assassinate me? Oh my God, this is too scary!

As if she smelled danger, Huanbi was a little flustered. After all, she was a girl who had never experienced anything like this and didn't know what to do.

Nanny Jingqi wanted to hand in the confession, so she asked someone to take Huanbi back first and wait for further instructions.

However, just when the emperor's anger after learning about this matter had not yet subsided, another piece of news completely enraged him.

Huanbi is dead.

According to the guards, Huanbi was sent back to Zhen Huan after the interrogation. Several people had a conversation during which she became so emotional that she burst into tears.

As a result, when the guards were changing shifts, Huanbi chose to commit suicide by biting her tongue.

By the time the guards realized something was wrong, it was too late. Huanbi had already completely lost her breath.

No one knows what Huanbi was thinking before she committed suicide, or why she came up with and implemented this idea.

Liu Zhu and Zhen's mother, who witnessed the whole process, were pale and almost fainted, and were completely unable to speak. Only Zhen Huan, whose face was covered with tears but was obviously in much better condition than the other two, could speak.

According to Zhen Huan, Huanbi felt that she was a burden to the Zhen family and did not want to make any more mistakes, so she bit her tongue and committed suicide when they were completely defenseless, leaving only the words "The fault is all mine. If I hadn't begged so hard, Dad would not have taken me in."

The emperor thought of Zhen Huan's scheming and became skeptical about Huanbi's so-called last words.

But no one can make the dead speak, and this has become an "unsolved case" that cannot be verified.

But it is a foregone conclusion that the Zhen family secretly kept the descendant of the daughter of a criminal, and sent this girl into the harem after concealing her from the public.

Fat Orange connected all the things together and worked out a complete chain of information:

The eighth and ninth brothers harbored evil intentions and secretly tried to win over the Zhen family, who had a concubine waiting to be selected and a descendant of a criminal. After Zhen Huan was elected, she brought Huanbi into the harem. The elder sister was responsible for sowing discord between him and the ministers, while the younger sister waited for an opportunity to act and plot something ill!

What a great chess game.

Fat Ju tried to shift all the blame onto himself, almost to the point of labeling Zhen Huan as a female monster who brought disaster to the country and the people.

Even if these people are extremely stubborn, the crimes they committed are established facts, so there is no need to wait for them to speak.

Fat Orange wrote with a flourish of his pen and directly added the ending for several people.

Yunsi and Yunlu were stripped of their yellow belts, removed from the family tree, and imprisoned for life. No one was allowed to visit them, and they were also whipped every ten days in private.

The Zhen family secretly harbored the remnants of criminals and concealed their crimes, and they also plotted evil. The three members of the Zhen family were sentenced to immediate execution, and the nine relatives of the Zhen family were exiled to Ningguta. They are never allowed to return to Beijing and are not allowed to serve as officials!

After hearing the verdict, Zhen Yuandao vomited blood on the spot and muttered that he was sorry to the Zhen family and ashamed of his ancestors.

On the last day of their stay in the Ministry of Punishment, Zhen's mother, Zhen Huan and Liu Zhu, who were about to be escorted to the real prison the next day, finally had a sumptuous dinner.

The tempting dishes were right in front of them, but the three of them didn't even start eating.

They knew what this meal represented.

Death is terrifying, and death with a clear deadline increases the fear countless times. In the midst of the calm, Zhen's mother was the first to collapse, and she threw the lunch box in front of her directly in the direction of Zhen Huan.

"What on earth did you do?!"

“Why…why did it turn out like this!?”

"What a sin! If I had known this would happen, I would have just thrown you away after giving birth to you. Why did you have to end up like this?"

The string that had been taut in Zhen Huan's mind was completely broken by her mother's ruthless words at this moment.

"What can I do? I didn't do anything! Huanbi was clearly brought back by my father, and I only found out about it the night before I entered the palace!"

The mother and daughter no longer had their former dignity and elegance, and attacked each other like two women in a secluded village, going crazy.

"...When I sent you to the palace, I didn't expect you to protect your mother's family, but I never imagined that you would end up dragging the entire Zhen family down with you!"

"Now you're blaming me for dragging the Zhen family down. Why didn't you tell me when you knelt before me and called me 'young lady'? I've been down several times since entering the palace, and could only watch others live in luxury. Yet, when I was scrimping and living frugally, you didn't even complain about not having enough food at home!"

"Ever since entering the palace, I've been walking on thin ice. Shen Meizhuang has never cared about our old friendship and stood by me, and I've never been favored. Who knows how hard I've been..."

"...Wow, my poor Yu Rao, she is so young."

The moonlight was bright but cold, shining through the small window and falling on the two disheveled faces.
