Zhou Yong eventually confessed. Murderers pay with their lives, and he was dismissed from office and imprisoned without question. The emperor sentenced him to be executed in the autumn, and all the servants in his household were to be sold. However, considering that his elderly mother was old and had been whipped a few times by Bao Hui, the emperor decided not to pursue the matter further.
The person was dragged away by howling ghosts and howling wolves. Chaoyang was stunned. No, this was not her Zhou Lang. How could her Zhou Lang kill someone? How could he be so ruthless!
Zhang Hui watched as Zhou Yong was dragged away, and... well... he was a little confused. He didn't believe that Chuanwen could predict the future and know everything, but Zhou Yong was exactly as she thought, and everything she said was true!
At this moment, Chuanwen took advantage of the chaos to raise her head to see what the emperor looked like, but in her hurried glance she did not see the emperor in the Golden Palace, but she did see the old man who was also looking at her.

Zhang Hui sneered. What's the use of just saying all this? Everyone knows his resume, and everyone admires and respects him!
【Hey, Grandpa Zhang, you're not up to it...】
Chuanwen continued reading the plot, his thoughtful voice ringing out, which made everyone's eyes light up and their ears perk up. No? The omnipotent Prime Minister Zhang is no good? In what way? Tell us.
Zhang Hui's face flushed red. "Guards! Someone is spreading rumors here!"
[You never seem to focus your energy on your work. Your household affairs are such a mess! Eight out of ten concubines are having affairs, and none of your eight sons are your own. As for your three daughters, oh well, thank goodness, they're all your biological daughters.]
