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 didn’t 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 won’t 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 Yu’s 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 Empress’s maidservants from her maiden home!
They all thought that the two of them wouldn’t 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 didn’t fulfill her promise and she made use of Luying.”
Gu Nuo’er pursed her pink lips and sneered. “How can you retreat unscathed when you’re scheming with a tiger? She’s 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 didn’t you tell my imperial grandfather?”
“I…” Speaking of this, Luzhu broke down and hit her head a few times, crying and shouting, “I’m sorry for not living up to Her Majesty’s nurturing.”
She closed her eyes, tears already flowing down her face.
“I saw Grand Consort Yu giving Arisaema heterophyllum to Luying, but I didn’t tell Her Majesty…”
Gu Nuo’er immediately looked up, her gaze sharp.
“Why didn’t you say anything?! All of you are helping Grand Consort Yu. Who is the one who treats you well? Why didn’t you say anything?!”
Luzhu endured Gu Nuo’er’s anger.
Tears streamed down her face. “Because at that time, with Her Highness’s help, I’m 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. It’s unknown if he would believe my testimony. I don’t have any confidence and don’t dare to say it, let alone say it.”
As she spoke, Luzhu slapped herself hard.
“I’m not human. I’ve let Her Majesty down. All these years, I’ve been hiding Her Majesty’s memorial tablet in the cabinet and worshiping it. I don’t 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 couldn’t see anymore. My husband also lost his footing and fell off a mountain after I gave birth.
“Even my grandson, Jingsheng, couldn’t see when he was born. My son and daughter-in-law passed away early. I was the one who harmed my family! It’s all retribution. I deserve it!”
Gu Nuo’er stared at her, her big eyes already filled with hateful tears.
“The heavens are clear. Evil people reap what they sow..”
