The whole family of villains listens to my heart, the Regent Prince treats me dearly.

Seeing her reaction, Zhai Rongyu's anger flared even more.

"The herb of 'Divine Thoughts' exacerbates anxiety, and you also told my mother about the rumors outside the mansion, which caused her to overthink during her pregnancy and weaken her body."

"But your venomous heart hasn't stopped yet!"

"On the day of delivery, if you hadn't instructed the midwife to tamper with things, how could my mother have suffered from blood stasis, postpartum shock, and died from postpartum hemorrhage?!"

The woman Hua Ying was holding was the midwife who had delivered Madam Zhai's baby.

With a sudden exertion of force, the midwife cried out, "I'll talk! I'll talk!"

She looked up tremblingly and said to Fourth Madam, "It was that lady, she told me not to completely remove Madam Zhai's placenta..."

She has delivered countless lives, but this one incident has always lingered in her mind.

I have been feeling uneasy ever since.

It has indeed been discovered...

Fourth Aunt was so angry that her face twisted in rage when she saw her accusing her.

The midwife had taken a lot of benefits from her, and secretly used the name of the Minister's Mansion to help her son get a minor official position in the countryside.

He thought that since their interests were so closely intertwined, she would never report him.

The result was unexpected...

Indeed, only the dead are truly reliable!

A fierce glint flashed in her eyes, which quickly turned into a pitiful expression.

"Second Miss, everyone has witnessed your subordinates being tortured into confessing. How can these things be considered evidence?"

"It's kind of you to go to such lengths to gather these people to slander me."

"I have no way to defend myself, but I believe that justice resides in the hearts of the people!"

"I didn't do it, and that's it!"

Seeing her defiant expression, the crowd automatically split into two factions.

Some say that Fourth Aunt doesn't seem to be lying, while others say that Miss Zhai's evidence is indeed credible.

For a moment, the scene was a little chaotic.

Minister Zhai, however, was absolutely certain.

If he weren't a man who doesn't hit women, he would have stabbed this shameless and vicious woman to death long ago!

During her lifetime, the lady actually regarded such a person as a sister.

But it led to his own untimely death...

A deep sorrow welled up in his chest.

Seeing that Fourth Aunt was still trying to deny it, Zhai Rongyu said to the midwife, "Do you have any evidence to prove that she instructed you?"

The midwife immediately nodded.

"The old woman is keeping things here, just in case she turns on me and tries to kill me one day."

As she spoke, she took a letter from her bosom.

Hua Ying took the letter and handed it to Zhai Rongyu.

The midwife said, "This letter was written to our county magistrate by my fourth concubine when she was helping my son get an official position."

“Our place is small. When the county magistrate saw that the seal of the Minister’s Mansion was affixed inside, he thought he could use us to climb the social ladder to the Minister’s Mansion, so he took good care of our family.”

If this matter hadn't been discovered by Miss Zhai, and her son's future hadn't been in someone else's hands, she wouldn't have come to testify.

Zhai Rongyu opened the letter and showed its contents to everyone.

Sure enough, the end was stamped with the seal of the Ministry of Rites!

Zhai Rongyu said, "Fourth Aunt, the handwriting on this is yours if you just compare it with any other handwriting."

"You say you've never harmed Mother, so how come you're familiar with this midwife, and why would you help her do such a thing?!"

Minister Zhai was furious: "You vile woman! How dare you steal my seal! You have no fear!"

"You've ruined the reputation of the Minister's mansion!"

Fortunately, Rong'er discovered this matter; otherwise, if the people in the court had found out, they might have used it to impeach him.

When Fourth Aunt saw the letter, her back was covered in cold sweat.

The crowd suddenly became excited.

"That concubine is really wicked!"

"To frame the mistress in this way is utterly despicable!"

"The Zhai family has both a vixen and a wicked woman; their household is truly in turmoil."

"But this concubine is really bold. She even dared to steal the seal of the Minister's mansion. It seems she has done all sorts of bad things and is no longer afraid."

"Truly, a woman's heart is the most poisonous."

Zhai Sangjie tightened the knot on his hands and shouted sternly at the two bound men, "Speak! Who ordered you to assassinate Doctor Han?!"

Seeing that the evidence was irrefutable and the fourth concubine had no way to refute it, the two had no choice but to confess to her in order to protect themselves.

"It's...it's Fourth Aunt..."

Everyone was in an uproar.

Zhai Rongyu said, "Fourth Aunt, if you have a clear conscience, why did you try to assassinate Doctor Han?"

"Now that we have both witnesses and physical evidence, what else do you have to say?!"

Her face was sharp, and her almond-shaped eyes were blazing with anger.

It was such a waste that my mother died at the hands of such a person!

Fourth Aunt's face suddenly turned pale, and her eyes revealed a fierce glint.

It's all because of this Miss Zhai; otherwise, I would have been the mistress of this Minister's mansion long ago...

How could his past be dredged up and his reputation ruined?!

She's just like her mother—equally unlucky!

Equally annoying!

She stared at Zhai Rongyu's face, which resembled that of Madam Zhai, and suddenly her expression twisted, her usual gentle demeanor vanished, and she viciously lunged at Zhai Rongyu.

"all because of you!"

"You want to destroy me? I'm telling you, you're dreaming!"

"I kill you!"

She reached out, making a gesture as if to strangle Zhai Rongyu.

The fourth concubine suddenly launched an attack, catching everyone off guard.

Zhai Rongyu grabbed her hands and twisted them forcefully to the right!

She didn't pull back.

With a "crack," both of Fourth Aunt's arms were dislocated.

"what!!!!!"

Zhai Rongyu slammed her hard to the ground.

Fourth Aunt fell to the ground, covered in cold sweat, her face deathly pale, and she screamed in pain.

Large drops of sweat and tears rolled down his face.

Her lips trembled, and her body shook.

Zhai Rongyu said coldly, "A life for a life. I will send this evidence to the Dali Temple."

"You have to pay the price for what you've done!"

Fourth Aunt was deeply shocked.

She shook her head and said, "No, no, I'm not going to Dali Temple!"

God knows how much punishment she will suffer!

Fourth Aunt got up and was about to crash into the tip of Zhai Sangjie's knife.

Zhai Rongyu quickly stuck a talisman on her back to freeze her.

"Want to die? It's not that easy!"

She walked over, stood in front of the fourth concubine, and said coldly, "My mother has been caused by you to live in fear and worry, so you should also taste the pain of fear and worry!"

"My mother died from postpartum hemorrhage, so I will bleed you dry!"

Fourth Aunt gradually revealed a look of fear.

But his body was completely immobile.

Zhai Rongyu leaned close to Fourth Aunt's ear and whispered, "Don't worry, Aunt. You will definitely suffer all 183 punishments from the Dali Temple. Nothing will be missed."

"You should also experience what it means to be unable to live or die."

Fourth Aunt's facial muscles twitched incessantly.

But he couldn't utter a single word.

Her eyes were filled with fear.

Zhai Rongyu said to Hua Ying, "Sister Hua Ying, could you please help me take her to Dali Temple?"

"Please ask the warden over there to take good care of my aunt."

Hua Ying accepted the order.

Together with Zhai Sangjie, they escorted the suspects and witnesses to the Dali Temple.

Minister Zhai was filled with remorse: "If I had discovered this woman's treacherous intentions sooner, your mother wouldn't have..."

Just as Zhai Rongyu was about to comfort him, a eunuch suddenly arrived.

"Miss Zhai, the Crown Prince requests your presence at the palace."

Zhai Rongyu frowned.

Why did Jun Yinghuai call her at this time?

The eunuch seemed to see through her thoughts and said, "The Crown Prince has ordered that now that Miss Zhai has returned, it is up to you to personally resolve the chaos in the capital."

A cold glint flashed in Zhai Rongyu's eyes.

She thought of the Three Pure Ones she had met a few days ago, and suddenly had a premonition.

There are some things that really need to be addressed.
