“I don’t know the exact number and only know that they are divided into six groups. The capital has two groups, and the rest are all in other places.

“The old madam was the chief helmsman who issued their orders.”

Zhou Ying and Gu Chengrui were a little scared after hearing this. This organization was much larger than they had imagined.

“Can you tell me what the old madam has done to those government officials?” Zhou Ying asked again.

“The old marquis had a younger cousin who grew up together. After they married, he took her in as a noble concubine who gave birth to the family’s eldest son.

“Even after the old madam gave birth to the empress, she still took advantage of the fact that the marquis was not at home to frame his younger cousin for drugging the other concubines and miscarrying a newly formed male fetus.

“At that time, the marquis’ mother was still around, so she punished the noble concubine to kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and nights.

“Later, the old madam harmed the eldest son and framed the concubine, who had just miscarried.

“The two concubines were injured in a big fight and died shortly after.

“I knew this because I had roped in a servant girl on the old madam’s side.

“It was only then that I realized how childish my methods were. It was also this that inspired me and allowed me to walk all the way to where I am now.”

“Is it that easy to rope in someone by her side?”

“Those who are ambitious and jealous are naturally easy to rope in, but the old madam will always be the winner.

“Before that servant girl could climb into the marquis’s bed, she was framed by the old madam and executed for having an affair with an outsider.

“There was also the death of the late Empress.

“But what I know of that is limited. I only overheard the Second Master mentioning that he blames the Empress Dowager for being a busybody, or else the previous Empress and the Zhou family would have disappeared together.

“It was also then that I found out that the old madam had an organization that specialized in collecting intelligence.

“Now that I think about it, the so-called evidence of the Zhou family colluding with the enemy and betraying the country back then was something that the old madam had gotten someone to frame them.”

“Anything else?”

“There’s also Consort Kang’s miscarriage…”

Magu probably did not want to bring any secret into her grave, so she continued to spill everything nonchalantly.

Four hours later, her throat was so dry that she couldn’t speak anymore.

Seeing this, Zhou Ying turned around and left the cave. She packed a bag of food from her interspace and brought it in. In addition to some buns and spiced beef, there was wine and a plate of strawberries. She handed it to Magu and said, “For the sake of your sincerity, have your last meal.”

“Thank you.” Magu nodded.

She grabbed a strawberry and started eating. As for whether it was poisoned or not, she didn’t care.

After all, it was her last meal.

Gu Chengrui kicked the coachman and asked, “Is there anything else you want to say?”

“I, I am different from her. Besides helping her drive you guys in a carriage, I have only helped her transport goods out of the city a few times over the past two years.”

“What goods?”

“I only know that the last two times were corpses. At the beginning, I was too focused on the great reward to notice what the goods were.”

“All of his goods are copses. They are people who died because they did not complete their assigned tasks in the residence, including my younger brother.”

Gu Chengrui looked at the coachman and commented, “You should eat and drink with her.”

The coachman was stunned for a moment and quickly shook his head. He didn’t want to have a last meal.

Gu Chengrui did not try to persuade him further when he saw his rejection.

After Magu had eaten and drunk her fill, Zhou Ying took out two pieces of potassium cyanide and handed them to the two of them.

The coachman looked at the white pill and refused to eat it, no matter what. Gu Chengrui went forward and pinched his cheeks to feed them; he downed it with a glass of wine.

An undertaker who would accept any job with money would be a disaster anyway.

The main issue was that he knew too much..
