"By the decree of His Majesty and the Crown Prince, thoroughly investigate the Eastern Palace. Any palace servant placed here by the Lu clan is to be executed!"
As Jiang Yan's words fell,
all the Golden Guards before the Eastern Palace stared in shock. Clearly, none of them had expected such a massive storm to sweep through the Eastern Palace this time.
Lu Ben, who had not yet left, halted upon hearing this, unspeakable panic welling up in his heart.
He truly realized then
that his daughter had completely lost power.
But he did not dare linger any longer. He swiftly turned and headed for his carriage, leaving in haste.
Watching Lu Ben's carriage depart,
Zhu Yunteng turned his head, a cold smile appearing on his face. "Now that the Lu clan has been dealt with, the next one will be your Lü Family."
"I absolutely do not believe the Lu clan could have done what happened back then alone. Your Lü Family definitely had a hand in it."
Mother Consort's death.
"And the suffering my elder brother endured from smallpox, being kept far from Yingtian for so many years. Who knew how much hardship he suffered?"
"These debts must all be repaid."
Before Elder Brother returns, I must clear away every obstacle in the Eastern Palace. Today's victory filled Zhu Yunteng with fighting spirit and confidence.
The Lu clan
was already completely finished.
Next
would be the Lü Family.
After Jiang Yan gave the order,
the accompanying Imperial Guards swiftly charged into the Eastern Palace and began their purge.
This time,
there would basically be little resistance, nor would it be difficult.
Ever since Zhu Biao had handed the Eastern Palace's internal affairs to the Lu clan, every palace servant admitted into the Eastern Palace had required her approval.
