"In that case, someone, take Consort Sun to the Imperial Prison!" Lanqin thought that since there was no evidence against Lady Fucha and the medicine was found from Consort Sun, sending her to the Imperial Prison would be the only way to appease the public.

Upon hearing that she was to be sent to the Imperial Prison, Consort Sun lay prostrate on the ground, refusing to get up, and kept crying out, "Your Majesty, I am innocent! It was all Fucha's doing! It was all her doing! Your Majesty... Your Majesty, please believe me!"

Lanqin felt sorry for her when she saw her losing her composure, but as someone in a high position, she had to give an explanation today.

So Lanqin ordered the nannies to take Sun Daying away quickly, muttering something to herself as she left.

"Fucha, you just wait, I'll haunt you even as a ghost..."

As Lady Fucha watched as Consort Sun was dragged away, her heart finally settled. However, the memory of Consort Sun's vow of revenge still lingered in her mind.

As Consort Sun's curses faded into the distance, Lanqin turned to Lady Fucha and said, "Noble Lady Fucha, let's leave this matter here for now. But I hope you understand that there are no secrets that stay hidden forever. If you don't want others to know, then don't do it in the first place. Otherwise, if you slip up one day, you won't be able to escape as easily as you did today." Since things had escalated to this point, Lanqin was no longer afraid to break ties with her.

Empress Fucha said innocently, "Your Majesty's words are etched in my mind."

After giving Fucha a few words of admonishment, Lanqin let her leave.

Everyone withdrew, and Nianxia came out from the side and knelt down at Lanqin's feet. "Your Majesty, Nianxia is sorry. It is Nianxia who is useless. I have been by Fucha's side for so long, but I still failed to catch her in the act."

Lanqin quickly helped Nianxia up, saying, "This is not your fault. Fucha is cunning and suspicious by nature. It has made things difficult for you by having to stay by her side during this time."

"Your Majesty, how can you say that? This is what Nianxia should do." As she spoke, tears streamed down her face. She had indeed suffered a lot of grievances during this time, but hearing the Empress's concern made her feel that it was all worthwhile.

"Alright, Nianxia, ​​stop crying. You don't need to go back to the Fucha clan anymore. You can stay by my side." Lanqin comforted her with a smile, and Nianxia smiled through her tears as she looked at the Empress.

As Fucha left Changchun Palace, she continued to berate Nianxia.

“That wretched Nianxia, ​​after all I did for her, she betrayed me so ungratefully. And that Lanqin, one day I’ll make her end up like me today,” said Lady Fucha.

The two returned to Zhongcui Palace, where Caixiang knelt on the ground and admitted her mistake. "Your Majesty, it's all Caixiang's fault. Caixiang shouldn't have recommended Nianxia to Your Majesty's side, which has harmed Your Majesty." As she spoke, she slapped herself repeatedly.

Lady Fucha glanced at Caixiang on the ground and said, "Forget it, stop hitting her. Luckily, I was careful and kept an eye on her. Otherwise, I would have been in trouble with her today."

Cai Xiang then stopped and stood up to stand beside Lady Fucha. "Thanks to Your Excellency's wisdom, Consort Xi was furious today!"

Empress Fucha felt displeased again, thinking about how she had been so subservient in Changchun Palace that day.

"Caixiang, I'm tired. Help me to rest!" Having caused so much trouble today, Lady Fucha was exhausted, both physically and mentally. Caixiang then helped her wash her face and go to rest.
