"Tell me, where did the alien poison in Li Xin come from? You came here from the Yu family just over twenty years ago. Don't tell me that she stole the poison you brought from the Yu family just to help you win favor."

The emperor did not stand up, but lowered his head and moved in front of her, tightly grasped Jin Yuyan's chin, and finally swung her hard, and Jin Yuyan fell to the ground.

"Master! Let me go, Your Majesty, let me go. This servant... can prove our master's innocence. Let me go, Your Majesty, please give this servant a chance to prove the master's innocence."

When Li Xin saw that Jin Yuyan was disliked by the emperor, tears flowed like a flood. Her parents died one after another when she was young, and she was finally sold to the imperial palace. It was because of serving Jin Yuyan that she had lived a good life for decades.

Seeing that there was no room for maneuver, a stern look flashed across Li Xin's face.

"Let her go and let her speak. I want to see how she can prove your innocence."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eunuch who was holding Li Xin hostage slowly let go and watched her movements nervously, fearing that she would hurt the nobles present if she stood up. No matter who she hurt, these little minions would have no chance of survival.

Li Xin felt the restraints on her body slowly disappear. She collapsed on the ground, sobbing and saying, "This thing was given to me by Sister Zhenshu. Before she left, Sister Zhenshu gave it to me and told me to take good care of the master. But since that time, the emperor has become estranged from the master..."

"Our master tried every possible way to regain his favor, and finally resorted to the Dongzhu method, but was intercepted by Concubine Mei. This servant couldn't stand it, so...that's why he came up with this method. It's all my fault. Our master is completely unaware of this, Your Majesty! Please have mercy and don't vent your anger on Concubine Jia!"

"I know I have committed grave sins and have no face to live in this world. Master... take care of yourself."

She said all this with a firm expression and chose to take all the blame on herself.

She looked around, then stood up, grabbed the silver needle on the plate used for poisoning, and stabbed herself in the neck.

A flash of bright red splashed in the air, and before anyone could react, Li Xin had already fallen to the ground.

Li Xin actually chose to commit suicide in public.

Jin Yuyan only felt warm liquid splashing on her face, followed by her terrified scream.

"Li Xin!"

Jin Yuyan watched her fall in front of her. She felt like her internal organs were burning, her eyes were bloodshot, and she crawled towards Li Xin screaming.

Blood continued to gush out, and no matter how hard Jin Yuyan tried to cover it, she couldn't stop it.

Li Xin was held in her arms. She twitched slightly, her face pale, tears and blood rolling down her cheeks. Her mouth opened and closed, but she couldn't say anything. She lay quietly in her arms, watching Jin Yuyan. In just a few breaths, she died in her arms.

Feeling the person in her arms gradually grow colder, watching her slowly lose her life force, Jin Yuyan felt fear for the first time. She felt as if all the blood in her body had frozen. She was so cold that she froze in the spot for a long time.

The entire Yikun Palace was in chaos. The emperor's face grew even gloomier. He looked at the palace attendants standing there in a daze and said, "What are you still standing there for? Is this Yikun Palace a place of execution? Hurry up and drag the people away!"

"Don't touch me! Get out of here! You are not allowed to touch her! Let her go! Your Majesty... Your Majesty, I beg you to show mercy! Li Xin is already dead, please spare her body and leave her body intact! I beg you, for the sake of giving birth to a prince for you, please spare me and the people around me!"

After hearing the emperor's words, Jin Yuyan came to her senses and hugged Li Xin, begging for mercy heartbreakingly.

"Is Concubine Jia questioning the Emperor's authority? When Li Xin poisoned Concubine Mei, did she ever consider showing mercy? The child in Concubine Mei's belly never saw the world before she turned into a pool of blood. Murdering the imperial heir is a heinous crime punishable by death for all nine generations of the family. The Emperor showing mercy by not pursuing her family is already a special favor."

Seeing the emperor's moved expression, Yan Wan spoke despite the pungent smell of blood.

Jin Yuyan, don't think you can get away with it so easily.

I won't let you go, never.

"That's enough. Li Xin plotted to murder the heir to the throne. Her crime is unforgivable. Since she has been brought to justice, no further investigation will be conducted. However, Imperial Concubine Jia is lax in her management of her subordinates and is confined to Qixiang Palace. The two princes are being sent to Xiefang Palace for care. Everyone in Qixiang Palace will be punished with twenty strokes of the cane and exiled to the Sizhiku. Two maids will be assigned to take care of her. You should reflect on your mistakes and wait until you have truly learned how to be a good concubine before you can come out again."

After the emperor finished speaking, he glanced at Jin Yuyan and walked away.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! You can't treat me like this! Your Majesty, for the sake of our past friendship, please don't abandon me! Your Majesty..."

She is under house arrest for an unknown period of time, and there is no one around her. It will be difficult for her to regain favor.

Looking at the man who left resolutely, Jin Yuyan was filled with grief and anger. Her eyes rolled back and she fainted.

The Yiku Palace was in chaos at this time, and everyone was busy carrying the person back to the Qixiang Palace.

Ruyi was sitting next to the emperor. She was frightened when she saw Li Xin committing suicide in front of her. She looked at the pool of blood on the ground and felt nauseous in her chest.

She suppressed the urge to vomit and said in a deep voice, "Let's go today. Rong Pei, have someone clean up this place. Concubine Ling, go back and take good care of Concubine Mei. With Li Xin's death, this matter is over. Tell Concubine Mei not to be too sad, she will have children in the future."

"Yes."

Yanwan restrained her expression and agreed obediently.

Jin Yuyan has done so many evil things, but after so many years, she still cannot be touched at all.

Well, her left and right arms are broken, which is enough to make her worry for a while.

Time is long, and she has plenty of time to fight with her.

Yanwan also knew that there was another person behind all her suffering.

The next morning, inside Qixiang Palace.

Jinzhong was majestic and stern, and he personally led people to surround Qixiang Palace.

He came specially to supervise the execution, followed by people from the Ministry of Punishment.

She was a noble concubine, with many servants under her. Besides, she had to beat him in public so that the other palace people would remember what would happen if they didn't obey their master well, right?

Jinzhong stared at the plaque of Qixiang Palace, and the image of Yanwan suffering in pain on that rainy night flashed through his mind. His eyes flashed slightly, and he stepped into Qixiang Palace.

Soon, two benches were placed in front of the Qixiang Palace. All the palace servants knelt and watched the torture. Each person received twenty strokes of the cane. They would watch their companions suffer until it was their turn.

Jinzhong specifically asked Li Yu for permission to come here. He wanted to personally supervise the execution and repay all the bullying that had happened to Yan Wan in Qixiang Palace.
