Gu Rong covered her red and swollen cheeks, still pretending to be pitiful, "My queen, I really want to repay you. You have seen how much I have taken care of you these days. How can you believe her just because of the play that Chu Chenyin and Mr. Lu put on?"
Mrs. Fu did think Gu Rong was good before, and even now she still felt sorry for her, but she was really too cruel, and she could not be soft-hearted.
"Take care of me? How do you take care of me? Feed me poison every day?"
Madam Fu said sternly.
Gu Rong's face turned pale in an instant, "Madam, what did you say?"
Madam Fu said sternly, "I have found poison in the soup you gave me every day these days, and today I even found the poison recipe in your room. What else do you have to say now?"
As she spoke, she took out the poison prescription that she had found in the orphanage.
Today, Gu Rong was so intent on eloping with Mr. Lu that she had no intention of coming back here. In a moment of negligence, she left the prescriptions she usually used in the house.
She bit her lower lip, her body trembling slightly, and she couldn't think of any way to deal with it.
Chu Chenyin immediately said, "Come here, arrest her for me and bring her to the Emperor for personal trial."
"Yes!" The guards strode forward and took Gu Rong down.
Gu Rong struggled and cried out, "My Lady, I am truly innocent. I have never thought of harming you. Please forgive me this time!"
Chu Chenyin picked up a smelly rag on the ground and blocked her mouth with it.

It doesn't matter about the backyard, she and Madam Fu can handle it privately, but since it involves the matter of Longyuan Kingdom, she still has to be brought to Lord Fu and Fu Yanting for review.
Madam Fu had someone tie up Gu Rong and keep an eye on her, fearing that she would bite her tongue to commit suicide.
After being taken away, Chu Chenyin bowed to Mr. Lu and said, "Thank you for your hard work these past few days."
Mr. Lu smiled, "Madam, you're welcome. You and the general saved our family of five in the past. This is what I should do."
Mrs. Fu took over the conversation and said, "Thank you, of course. Does Mr. Lu have someone in mind?"
Mr. Lu shook his head quickly, "My family is poor, I'm afraid no woman would be willing to marry me."
Madam Fu said quickly, "You are now our Yunzhou's master. In a few days, I will ask the emperor to give you an official title and a house."
Mr. Lu still refused, "Thank you, Madam Queen. I am used to being alone. It is good enough to be able to teach in the palace now. I don't want to consider marriage for the time being."
