Qin Zhizhi had already confessed, and apart from Madam Qin, the rest of the Qin Family soon confessed to everything too!
Everything was clear now.
After Lord Yang had the Qin Family and Qi Shiyun sign and affix their fingerprints, he adjourned the court.
Lord Yang said to Old Madam Kang:
"Old Madam, the facts are clear now. I must go to the palace at once. This matter still requires His Majesty's decision."
Old Madam Kang nodded.
After exchanging a few words with Song Yaoyao as well, Lord Yang left!
Old Madam Kang and Song Yaoyao boarded a carriage to return to the Marquis's Residence together.
In the carriage, Old Madam Kang kept thinking about Song Yaoyao's inner voice. She had no idea how Princess Jiahe and the one called Guagua knew all those things.

Not only had she saved Yueling and her great-grandson, but she had also exposed the Qin Family's plot. Otherwise, neither grandmother nor granddaughter would even have known how they had died!
Back at the Marquis's Residence, Old Madam Kang went to the Plum Garden.
By then, Kang Yueling had woken up.
She was delighted to see Old Madam Kang and said:
"Grandmother, you're back?"
"Yes.
Yueyue, how are you feeling?"
"The wound hurts a little, but I can bear it."
"That's good.
Princess Jiahe said you should stay here for seven days so she can check your wound whenever necessary.
If there are no problems, we can return home to recuperate after seven days."
"All right.
Grandmother, where's Zhize?
Why haven't I seen him at all?"
At the mention of Qin Zhize, Old Madam Kang's face immediately darkened, and she said:
"Yueyue, focus on recovering first. As for Qin Zhize, I'll tell you
