Xu Jiaowei ended up poisoning herself with her own needle, but fortunately, it wasn't fatal. After detoxification, she was okay.
However, Chuzheng offended her, and Xu Jiaowei definitely wouldn't let it rest,
Just as Xu Jiaowei was about to reveal that she was the surviving member of the Ji Family, she suddenly received news that people from the palace had surrounded Chu Residence.
The ones who came were the Imperial Guards, surrounding the residence so tightly that not even a fly could escape.
This group of people arrived suddenly, leaving Chuzheng completely unprepared.
"Miss, are they here to arrest you?"
Jin Zhi learned about Chuzheng's background somewhat and thought it was a loss not to have run earlier. Now she might be caught along with her.
"Arrest me?"
Chuzheng repeated those words ambiguously, then walked out indifferently.
Jin Zhi followed her.
Chuzheng turned her head: "Don't follow me." It would be a nuisance if things got violent later.
Jin Zhi: "??? "
