Luzhu explained the matter tirelessly.

It turned out that back then, Grand Consort Yu had bribed Luying to help her frame Empress Chi.

At first, Luying didnt agree. Unexpectedly, her biological brother accidentally killed someone and was sent to prison.

It was unknown where Grand Consort Yu got the news from, but she grasped this point and threatened and tempted Luying.

She even told Luying, Empress Chi is the most impartial. If she finds out, she wont save your brother either. However, I can save your brother as long as you agree to cooperate with me.

Luying was caught in a dilemma, but in the end, she agreed to Grand Consort Yus request.

She got Luying to add a herb called Arisaema heterophyllum into the warm soup that Empress Chi gave Gu Yihan every day.

The effect of Arisaema heterophyllum was originally to remove the wind, stop the convulsions, disperse knots, and reduce swelling.

However, if one were to take it for many days in a row and the dosage increased, not only would it not be beneficial to the human body, but it would also be harmful.

Soon, this matter was exposed.

Luying stood up and testified that she had been instructed by Empress Chi to do this.

The late emperor was furious.

Everyone knew that Luzhu and Luying were the former Empresss maidservants from her maiden home!

They all thought that the two of them wouldnt lie.

Therefore, Empress Chi was banished to the cold palace. Gu Yihan was young and hated his biological mother without knowing anything.

Luzhu sat on the ground, recalling the past, her face filled with sadness.

But not long later, Luying suddenly died in her room. Her younger brother naturally died in prison too. Grand Consort Yu didnt fulfill her promise and she made use of Luying.

Gu Nuoer pursed her pink lips and sneered. How can you retreat unscathed when youre scheming with a tiger? Shes really stupid.

The child looked at Luzhu with her black eyes.

What about you? How did you know all of this? Since you knew, why didnt you tell my imperial grandfather?

I Speaking of this, Luzhu broke down and hit her head a few times, crying and shouting, Im sorry for not living up to Her Majestys nurturing.

She closed her eyes, tears already flowing down her face.

I saw Grand Consort Yu giving Arisaema heterophyllum to Luying, but I didnt tell Her Majesty

Gu Nuoer immediately looked up, her gaze sharp.

Why didnt you say anything?! All of you are helping Grand Consort Yu. Who is the one who treats you well? Why didnt you say anything?!

Luzhu endured Gu Nuoers anger.

Tears streamed down her face. Because at that time, with Her Highnesss help, Im in the midst of discussing marriage with the imperial guard, Qi Zhong. I really wanted to marry him and live a stable life.

I was about to leave the palace. If I were to stand up to clarify for Her Majesty, Grand Consort Yu would definitely take revenge on me. The happiness that was just right in front of me will also disappear.

Moreover, at that time, His Majesty doted on Grand Consort Yu so much. Its unknown if he would believe my testimony. I dont have any confidence and dont dare to say it, let alone say it.

As she spoke, Luzhu slapped herself hard.

Im not human. Ive let Her Majesty down. All these years, Ive been hiding Her Majestys memorial tablet in the cabinet and wors.h.i.+ping it. I dont expect her to forgive me in the netherworld, but I hope that she can live a better life in the netherworld.

Luzhu smiled bitterly. Not long after Her Majesty died, I suddenly became blind and couldnt see anymore. My husband also lost his footing and fell off a mountain after I gave birth.

Even my grandson, Jingsheng, couldnt see when he was born. My son and daughter-in-law pa.s.sed away early. I was the one who harmed my family! Its all retribution. I deserve it!

Gu Nuoer stared at her, her big eyes already filled with hateful tears.

The heavens are clear. Evil people reap what they sow..
