"But Father, how long do you want us to endure? Mother murdered the Princess Consort. Once she is sent to prison, she will definitely be sentenced to death! We don't want Mother to die, we want to save her! "Nangong Yu said emotionally.
Nangong Wen weighed the pros and cons and said in a deep voice, "I can't save your mother now. If she doesn't die, I will be the one to die. Once I fall, the Nangong family will be finished. Your mother must sacrifice herself for our family. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Don't worry, I won't let Chu Xuanchen off! "
Nangong Yu and his brother were stunned. If the Nangong family fell, they would no longer be young masters. They would have no money, no power, and no women to play with!
They didn't want to live that kind of poor life!
They thought about it and reluctantly closed their mouths.
Only Nangong Rou stared coldly in front of her. Her eyes were filled with hatred and killing intent.
Nangong Wen was afraid that his sons would cause trouble, so he quickly warned them, "Our family has already offended The Emperor of Li. From now on, when you are outside, you must be careful. When you see The Emperor of Li and his wife, you must be polite. Don't offend them again. Don't worry, Prince Xian is about to come out of retirement. He has the Emperor as his backing. When his strength grows, it will be the time of Chu Xuanchen's death! "
He had already decided that he would no longer be neutral. He would join Prince Xian's side.
Nangong Yu and Nangong Ao listened to these warnings. After all, they were cowards.
However, Nangong Rou turned a deaf ear to them. When she saw Yun Ruoyue's slightly swollen belly, she wanted to cut it open with a knife!

In the prison, a faint waning moon shone in.
Madam Liu's hands and feet were chained. She sat on the hay with a dejected expression. Her eyes were filled with unwillingness, resentment, and jealousy.
The entire prison was very dark. The ground was full of water stains. Cockroaches and rats scurried everywhere. The thick smell of blood filled the air. It was depressing, gloomy, and terrifying.
Looking at the gloomy prison, Madam Liu's eyes were full of hatred. She just lost the fight, she didn't do anything wrong!
She only harmed those who deserved it. She was only doing it for herself!
When she thought of the viciousness in Nangong Wen's eyes, she felt a stab of pain in her heart. She had done everything for him, yet he had actually pushed her out to die!
Then why did she fight for half her life? She didn't even receive her husband's heartache.
When she was sent in just now, she heard Magistrate Zhang say that if she dared to poison the Princess Consort, she would be sentenced to death!
Once her crimes were determined, she would be pushed to the execution ground and her crimes would be read out on the spot. She would lose all face and be beheaded on the spot amidst the curses of the people!
At this point, she no longer had any hope of surviving. Instead of being convicted and taken to the execution ground to be humiliated and beheaded, she would rather commit suicide by ingesting poison. This way, at least she would have a complete corpse!
She was the noble Madam Nangong, how could she let those lowly commoners humiliate her?
Thinking of this, she clenched the medicine bottle in her hand tightly.
This was the last bottle of medicine she had hidden on her body — Artemisia on Snow, which had been mixed with disfiguring powder.
She desolately looked at the medicine. She never thought that the medicine used to poison Yun Ruoyue would be used on her.
She never thought that she would die from poison after researching poisons her entire life.
"Hehe." She stared at the medicine and coldly laughed a few times. Her eyes were fierce and her voice was like an evil spirit from hell.
Chu Xuanchen, that pair of cheap people. Even if she turned into a ghost, she wouldn't let them off!
Thinking of this, she raised her head and poured the poison into her mouth. This poison didn't have any taste, but it was bitter and tasted like wax!
Not long after, the poison in her body flared up.
