By the next morning, the punishment for Qu Muxi was announced: just like Princess Ankang, she was demoted to a commoner and sent to the Cold Palace.
As for Consort Zhi, she had already been executed by beating on the spot.
The people around Qu Muxi and Consort Zhi were either imprisoned, killed, or exiled.
The two close attendants who acted as Jian Shichu's informants took the fake death poison pills he had given them. Afterward, their "bodies" were transported out of the Royal Palace.
The Jian family arranged for people to meet them and sent them to Empire Country, where they assumed new identities and began new lives.
After breakfast, Jian Shichu and Ye Qingci went to the hospital to visit Meng Suizhou.
