"Now that you are with Teng, and also managing the affairs of the backyard, who else should I please, if not you, for me to get by?"
"That reason is indeed acceptable." Li Hongyuan said indifferently, "However, you provided the osmanthus honey, so you can't escape from being implicated. How daring of you, Ms. Zhao, to plot against the princess consort and her child."
Zhao Shu rushed to kneel and beg for mercy: "I really didn't know, I am wronged, it must be that old woman who framed me, please, Your Highness, stand up for me!"
It's a pity that her pleas for mercy were worthless in Li Hongyuan's eyes.
He coldly ordered the housekeeper: "Strip her of her palace maid status, give her thirty strokes, and send her to the main cell of the Ministry of Justice."
"No——"
Ms. Zhao let out a sharp cry, her eyes rolled back and she fainted.
She knew she was completely finished.
The moment she fainted, a doubt sprouted in her heart.
