Zhou Ying saw that the memorial had not been closed, so she immediately went forward to take a look. It was a memorial from the south asking for funds to strengthen the river embankment.
Thinking back to the conversation, she suddenly understood why the Emperor was angry.
She glanced at the memorial, saw Yang Zhicheng’s name, and smiled. Yang Shicheng was not far from death.
Should she push the Emperor to act so Yang Shicheng won’t cause any more trouble?
There was also the First Prince. He was one of the masterminds behind the deaths of her original body and Gu Chengrui’s original body.
Thinking of this, after the Emperor fell asleep, she gave him another dream and told him about Yang Shicheng helping the First Prince commit corruption.
She also told him about the secret chamber in the Yang Residence and the way to enter.
After leaving, Zhou Ying returned the things she took from the secret chamber. She even returned the 100,000 taels of silver in the manor wholly intact.
With this evidence, their doomsday would soon arrive.
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, the Emperor suddenly woke up with a head full of sweat. She was shocked by this and immediately left.
Seeing it was getting late, she collected what she needed in her interspace and planted some corn.
After she was done, she picked up a five-pound watermelon and entered the villa. She sliced the watermelon and called Gu Chengrui down. “You’ve been reading for some time. Eat a piece of watermelon and take a rest.”
“Thanks, it’s great that you thought of that.” Gu Chengrui pulled her to sit down. He first handed her the middle piece before taking another piece and eating it.
Zhou Ying looked at the watermelon in her hand and smiled. She lowered her head and started eating.
After eating, Zhou Ying told him what she had seen and heard tonight and that she had returned Yang Shicheng’s gold and silver.
“Great. It’s revenge for our bodies.” Gu Chengrui laughed after hearing that.
He then asked, “So the Fourth Prince has planted a spy in King Rui’s residence?”
“Isn’t that normal? I’m sure King Rui has spies in the others’ residences too.”
“That’s true. If he didn’t have some tricks up his sleeve, he probably wouldn’t have lived until today. I just wonder what the Fourth Prince’s goal is.”
“From my experience watching royal dramas, the most effective way to provoke two women to fight is to do something regarding their children, especially involving sterilization medicine. It will definitely make the two women fight to the death.”
Gu Chengrui only sighed and said, “To put it bluntly, women and children are just sacrifices in politics.”
After saying that, he stood up and disposed of the melon skin.
After that, they took a shower together and went out of the interspace to go to bed.
When Zhou Ying woke up again, the capital was in an uproar. The Yang Family had been raided, all the family members had been captured, and the servants had been sold.
The First Prince was punished by personally reinforcing the south river embankment using his private coffers.
The Marquis of Ding’an’s younger brother, Sun Wenhao, was also arrested and imprisoned, and Lord Bai from the Ministry of Works was also implicated.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the capital became tense again.
After dinner, Zhou Ying was teaching Gu Wanning martial arts when she realized Gu Wanning was daydreaming. She went up and asked, “Something on your mind?”
“I guess so. I really didn’t expect my father to have embezzled so much money.” Gu Wanning replied thoughtfully.
In her previous life, even though Yag Shicheng also had his corruption exposed, they did not recover much of the stolen money. It seemed that it was all used up by those three women.
The Cui family women lived a much more luxurious life, especially after Yang Wanyu married the First Prince.
Gu Wanning remembered that Yang Wanyu had said that the First Prince doted on her by gifting them all those luxurious goods. Now that she thought about it, those weren’t gifts from the First Prince.
Those were bought after Yang Shicheng finally dared to spend the embezzled money once the First Prince gained power.
At the thought of this, she felt aggrieved for her mother.
Yang Shicheng’s salary had been solely for his personal use for the past several years. Gu Wanning’s mother never spent even a single penny he earned after marrying him.
But her ending was…
