Liang Jiugong, with his keen perception, offered a quiet reminder.

"Your Majesty, her name is Wuya Chenyu, and that guard's name is Wei Chang'an."

Kangxi responded.

"The palace maid Wuya Chenyu is to be executed. The guard Wei Chang'an is to be thrown into a mass grave to be fed to the dogs. All the palace maids and eunuchs in Chengqian Palace who serve Consort Gong closely are to be beaten to death."

The entire Chengqian Palace was immediately filled with cries of weeping.

Consort Gong and Longkodo opened their mouths several times, but when they met Kangxi's cold and ruthless gaze, they swallowed their words and lowered their heads without uttering a word.

Wuya Chenyu laughed wildly three times, broke free from the eunuchs' restraints, and crashed into a pillar. Blood gushed out and brains spilled everywhere.

Midnight

The Empress returned to Chuxiu Palace, a sinister smile appearing on her face in the darkness.

Consort Yu was deeply in love with the Emperor and cared about the royal bloodline. She did not want Consort Gong to do anything that would confuse the Emperor's bloodline.

He himself had fueled Consort Yu's scheme, causing Consort Gong's reputation to be completely ruined.

Even if the Emperor finds out that Consort Gong is innocent after today, so what?

Wei Chang'an and Wu Yachenyu insisted that Consort Gong had an affair, and Consort Gong would never be able to clear her name even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

But Wei Chang'an arranged it himself. So who was the mastermind behind Wu Ya Chenyu's suicide to prove her innocence?

There was also Wei Zhu, a young eunuch from the Qianqing Palace.

Wei Zhu did indeed have feelings for Wuya Chenyu, but as a eunuch, even if he had feelings for her, he could not have sexual relations with her.

And who sent the aphrodisiac spices into Consort Gong's bedchamber?
