I won't die easily...

"You evil woman, what did my son did to you?" cried the imperial concubine but was soon interrupted by concubine Fu who was carrying her son

"Your highnesses, my son is no longer breathing, please check on him doctor," cried concubine Fu as the doctor hurried in Checking the grand prince condition

"Your imperial highnesses, it's the same poison that killed the third prince that killed the young prince," said the doctor sadly

"Poison! How come?" asked concubine Fu

"Do you find anything suspicious? calm down and tell us," said the imperial concubine

"I saw this bottle beside his bed," cried concubine Fu handling the bottle to the imperial doctor who examined it

"Please, where did you get this bottle your grace?" asked the doctor to concubine Fu

"It's from Consort Yang,she gave it to me for the grand prince third year birthday," replied Concubine Fu

"Is this true consort Yang," his imperial highness furiously asked

"I did gave the young prince the jade bottle on his birthday but I didn't put poison in it,please believe me your highness," Mei lien pleaded with tears rolling down her cheek

"You killed my son and also the second prince first child, you're a evil woman," said the imperial concubine angrily as she was about slapped Mei lien for the second time but was stopped by the king

"No your highness, you have to believe me,I know nothing about this," Mei lien pleaded

"Guards!!! take this wicked woman and lock her in the prison dungeon, including her maids," the imperial king ordered

"No your highness,I didn't do anything like that, I'm innocent," but all plead fell on deaf ears as Mei lien was being taken to the prison dungeon

"Your highness," screamed eunuch Li as he ran as far as his leg could take him to Jun's mansion

"What's wrong?" asked Jun who was still sorting out some files

"It's the consort, she killed the third prince and your little prince by poisoning and she's been locked in the palace dungeon," Eunuch Li said with tears

"What!!!!" exclaimed Jun as he made his way to the palace dungeon

Mei lien and her maids were being tortured by the prison guards terribly as they were being asked to confess

"My lady is innocent," cried Jing

"You better confess or you wouldn't be able to walk out of here alive," said one of the palace guard

Just then, Jun arrived asking them to stop the torture at once

"Please save my lady, she's innocent," cried Jing

"Please your highness,she knows nothing about it," said Luli as she winces in pain

Jun got closer to Mei lien who had fainted from the torture she had gone through, he gently touched her face with tears rolling down his eyes

"I'm sorry, I'll discover the truth and save you," said Jun sadly before making his way out of the dungeon

The next day, it's the third prince and little prince burial,the imperial palace was decorated in white with the royal family putting on white

"Sorry for your loss third prince consort," said Princess Hua comforting Mei Zhen

Jun can be seen comforting concubine Fu who was crying uncontrollably

"I must avenge my son," said the imperial concubine while the king hugs her

"I understand your pain,I'll get to the root of this matter," replied the king as he made his way to his chamber

Now at Jun's quarters,he can be seen in deep thoughts trying to figure out the truth

"Do you also believe her highness is responsible for the princes death," asked Haoyu and Gang

"I don't, that's why I'm racking my brain," replied Jun

"The crime of killing royal princes is punishable by death with the person family included," Haoyu said with a serious expression

"I know right! Gang! get the the names of people in the capital who're into jade bottles infact anything jade and poison,investigate everything," said Jun

"Yes your highness," said Gang bowing before making an exit now leaving Jun and Haoyu in the room

"Haoyu! we both have a lot of work to do," said Jun as Haoyu nodded in affirmation

Meanwhile,the Yang family were already in prison including Mei Zhen

"Mei lien! Are you okay child?" asked old madam yang with tears rolling down her cheek as she felt pity for her grand daughter

"My sister would never do this," said Yuze

"She did, it's time you stop believing that slut,she killed my husband," said Mei Zhen who was soon slapped by Mrs Yang

"Will you keep your mouth shut?How dare you accuse your sister with such crime?" Mrs Yang said with tears

"But mother she did,I didn't believe at first until I saw the prove," Mei Zhen said tearfully as she couldn't believe that she could be slapped

"I said you should keep quiet or that your mouth is going to get us killed soon,or you think you'll be free? You also belong to the Yang family,so we all would be killed," said Mrs Yang as Mei Zhen kept shut

"Mother! there's no way we would be able to investigate anything here," said Yuxuan worriedly

"Please,save my young lady, she's innocent," Jing said tearfully as she pleaded with Yuxuan

"I know, she's not only your lady, she's also my sister," replied Yuxuan

"Let me ask you this,your sincerity will help a lot," said Yuxuan as he leaned towards Jing

"How did you get the jade bottle?Where did you buy it from?" asked Yuxuan

Just then,Mei lien who had been unconscious regained consciousness as she called Jing name weakly in which all the Yang family came to her

"My lady you're awake," said Jing happily

"I won't die easily," replied Mei lien as she struggled to sit

"I trust you so much sister, someone is trying to use you as a scapegoat for their own crime," said Yuxuan as he leaned towards Mei lien

"So how did the jade bottle got into the palace in the first place? Who were the people that knows about it?" Yuxuan asked

"I bought the one I gifted the grand prince from a vendor outside the palace,only Jing and Luli know about it," replied Mei lien weakly

"And I also ordered one on the grand prince birthday in which I was told would be delivered soon," said Mei Zhen

"It was mistakenly delivered to my chamber,and thank the gods,Mei Zhen handmaid came to call me and I used that opportunity to take the jade bottle with me to the third prince mansion," said Mei lien

"And why did you call for Mei lien?"asked Yuxuan to Mei Zhen

"To learn embroidery,I know I'm also good at embroidery but I was actually trying to fix our fights," said Mei Zhen

"How come the jade bottle was mistakenly delivered to Mei lien chamber?" I don't seem to understand, could this be a planned work? Definitely this person is trying to get rid of the entire Yang family," Yuxuan thought
