Therefore, she had both the motive and the reason to do so!
Gu Jiangli didn't even have time to plead with the emperor to defend himself. The emperor's edict reached the Gu family, and the matriarch of the Gu family hanged herself from the roof beam that very night.
Gu Jiangli, the original owner of the body, was filled with grief and indignation, and went to find her sister to ask her why she had done this.

I just wanted to catch her red-handed.
If caught red-handed, he'll probably be punished.
She quickly got up and began tidying up.
