The guards had been stunned by the scene before they regained their senses after hearing this. They quickly rushed forward and grabbed hold of Madam

Dan.

Unfortunately, Noble Consort Xian and her confidants were no longer breathing. Without exception, they had all been poisoned to death.

The guards were in a panic and quickly called for the imperial physician.

Gu Lingyue watched everything that was happening in front of her in silence. The corners of her lips curled up into a victorious smile. When no one was paying attention, she quietly turned around and left.

The news quickly spread throughout the palace.

Gu Qingxue and the others had just entered the palace and had yet to meet the emperor when they heard this grievous news.

Gu Qingxue walked to the imperial study with a grave expression. She knew very well that they would not be able to successfully overthrow Prince Heng with this matter.

As expected, by the time she and Rong Zhan arrived at the Imperial study, Rong Xiaotian’s men had already found the confession letter that Gu Lingyue had prepared for her from Madam Dan’s body. They expressed that everything had nothing to do with Prince Heng and that it was Noble Consort Xian who had been forcing her to help coordinate with the outside and harm many concubines in the palace.

Rong Xiaotian was furious. As the emperor, how could he tolerate someone toying with him like this? He immediately passed down the order to execute

Madam Dan, fined Prince Heng three years of his salary, and executed Imperial Physician Qin’s entire family.

The truth of the matter shocked everyone. Since Rong Xiaotian had already decided on the outcome, Gu Qingxue and the others could not continue to associate Prince Heng with this matter. Otherwise, it would be a deliberate attempt to link the matter to Prince Heng and would easily anger Rong Xiaotian.

Rong Xiaotian did not forget to compensate the Gu family either. Not only did he clear Gu Ye’s name, but he also gave Madam Qi the honor of being a first-rank wife. He then gave Gu Qingxue a large amount of gold and silver. He also announced this matter to the world, completely clearing Gu Ye and the entire Gu family’s name.

Gu Qingxue was very dissatisfied with this, but she had no other choice. She could only accept her fate and return to the residence with Rong Zhan after thanking him.

In the carriage, Rong Zhan saw the dissatisfaction on Gu Qingxue’s face and advised her softly, “I’ve been dealing with Prince Heng for many years. He’s never been easy to deal with, and it’s within my expectations that I wasn’t able to deal with him this time.”

Gu Qingxue turned to look at Rong Zhan and finally heaved a sigh of relief. “Prince Heng’s family and business are huge, and it’s not easy to deal with him. However, what I didn’t expect was Gu Lingyue. She’s obviously very different from before. If she wants to turn around and deal with the Gu family, with Prince Heng backing her up, it’s not a good thing for the Gu family…”

For Madam Qi, she had to protect the Gu family.

Based on Gu Lingyue’s personality, she definitely would not let Gu Qingxue off so easily. Gu Qingxue had already decided to fight Prince Heng to death.

However, the other party was a prince and she was only a female doctor. It was not an easy thing to fight against a prince.

Looking at Gu Qingxue, Rong Zhan said with an indifferent expression, “Gu Lingyue has Prince Heng behind her, and you have this prince behind you. You think that I am not Prince Heng’s match?”

Gu Qingxue looked at Rong Zhan in surprise, a complicated look rising in her eyes. She cleared her throat and lowered her head. “That’s not what I meant. Your Royal Highness, the Gu family’s matter has nothing to do with Your Royal Highness. Your Royal Highness, you don’t need to trouble yourself..”
