It turned out to be her.
It’s her!
Xiao Yan's voice was slightly hoarse: "How did the Song family treat her so harshly?"
Jinyun hesitated, seeing his master's stern expression as he lowered his head and spoke, "After Miss Song was seriously injured, the Song family imprisoned her under the pretext of medical treatment. At first, Princess Cheng was making a fuss, and since Song Jinxiu and Lu Zhinian were both responsible for Miss Song's injuries, they were afraid of Princess Cheng's reprimand and also afraid of Rong Taifu's old friends interfering, so they didn't dare to neglect Miss Song too much."
"But as time passed, Miss Song's injury was forgotten. Princess Cheng suddenly became pregnant and fell ill, making it difficult for her to be cared for. The Song family then began to openly criticize Miss Song. They stole the things left by Master Rong, favored Song Shulan, allowed him to hang out with Lu Zhinian, and secretly bullied Miss Song."
"Ms. Song's medicine was replaced, and her wounds kept festering. After being repeatedly beaten and scolded by the Song family, she was framed by Song Shulan and hated by them. Even doctors stopped treating her. Her face became pale, and her legs rotted. Later, Princess Cheng suddenly passed away, and Miss Song was sent to the woodshed..."
As Jinyun spoke, he felt that the Song family had lost their conscience. What he heard from the servants of the Song family was far more vicious than what he said. After all, Miss Song was of the Song family's blood and the only daughter of the second branch, but the Song family treated her worse than the lowest servant.
It was common for her to be short on food and drink, and she was often tortured and scolded. She was obviously a pampered girl, but everything was taken away from her. She became a stepping stone for the concubine, and when she died, only a pile of bones was left, and her whole body was rotten and smelly.
There was a moment of silence in Heli Hall. Xiao Yan's breathing became heavier. He gently wiped the tablet with his fingertips, and his eyes were full of frost.
"Keep checking."
Xiao Haitang is of Rong family bloodline and the legitimate daughter of the Song family. Even if there are some grudges between them, the Song family should never be so cruel to her.
Song Jinxiu was a fool who was deceived by a concubine's daughter. Song Hong and the old lady of the Song family could not be so foolish as to do such a thing for a concubine's daughter, unless there was some reason that overshadowed this blood relationship.
"Interrogate Song Hong and the old lady of the Song family, and thoroughly investigate the cause of death of the second wife of the Song family."
"And King Cheng, torture him and interrogate him. Let me pry his mouth open!"
Jinyun lowered his head: "But over there in the palace..."
Xiao Yan said coldly, "Prince Cheng is plotting treason, and the Song family is implicated in an old case at the Eastern Palace. Emperor An will not tolerate them if they take in the daughter of the traitor."
Jinyun thought of the concubine's identity and Emperor An's fear of the events of the Eastern Palace. He quickly replied, "I understand."
…
The Song family has never been a tough family. Moreover, Xiao Yan personally ordered the action, and all the servants of the Song family were captured, their bones broken and their flesh peeled off. Not to mention Song Tangning's affairs, even everything in the past was confessed.
The death of Madam Rong, the "taming" of Song Tangning, and the events leading up to Grand Tutor Rong's death, their connections with the Lu family and the Queen, and the events of the Eastern Palace that were brought to light...
When Jinyun timidly handed the confession to Xiao Yan, he saw his face gradually turn colder as he flipped through the papers in his hand, and murderous aura permeated his whole body.
Canglang whispered, "Master, what should we do with the Song family?"
Xiao Yan said coldly, "Treat them the same way they treated Tang Ning. Find a few good coffins for the Song family and take good care of them!"
Canglang shuddered: "Yes, Lord Governor."
The Song family members were openly executed for treason, but secretly they were locked in coffins and tortured to death for more than a month before they died. With the death of the Song family members, the fact that Prince Cheng and Queen Lu had an affair and exchanged children, disrupted the royal bloodline, and murdered Prince Cheng's wife was also exposed, and chaos in the capital was completely brought to an end.
