"Good girl, she's no longer a concubine. Half an hour ago, Lady Wen was given death by imperial decree." Yu Jingchen's tone was noticeably colder when he said this.
Dead? In just a few short days, two concubines have already died. She wasn't sure why, but she always felt that she was partly responsible. As for Consort Min, she knew that Consort Min had been banished to the Cold Palace, had her tongue cut out, and received fifty strokes of the cane.
