All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth

"From now on, strict precautions must be taken inside the palace. Any suspicious situations must be reported promptly. We must never let such incidents happen again." Lu Yundi's eyes were as sharp as ice blades, sweeping across everyone present.

Everyone in the mansion said they would obey the order, and the atmosphere became more solemn. At this moment, a maid hurried into the hall, holding an envelope in her hand and handed it to Lu Yundi.

"Madam, this is a letter from Miss Jiang Lili. She requests to see you." The maid said in a low voice.

Lu Yundi took the envelope and opened it. The content inside was roughly Jiang Lili pleading for her, hoping that she could forgive her parents. She held the letter in her hand and was silent for a moment.

"Let her in." Lu Yundi finally spoke.

After a while, Jiang Lili was led into the hall. She was wearing a light blue dress, with a graceful figure and picturesque features. However, her eyes could not hide her worry and fear.

"Madam, please let my parents go. They already know they are wrong and are willing to repent and reform." Jiang Lili knelt in front of Lu Yundi and begged.

Lu Yundi looked at Jiang Lili, and a complex emotion surged in her heart. She had regarded Jiang Lili as her own daughter, but she did not expect that she would also participate in this betrayal.

"Li Li, do you know the price of betrayal and deception? Do you think your plea can change everything?" Lu Yundi said coldly.

"I understand, ma'am. I am willing to be punished on behalf of my parents. I only ask you to give them a chance." Jiang Lili said firmly with tears in her eyes.

Lu Yundi was silent for a moment, struggling fiercely in her heart. She knew that Jiang Lili's request was not false, but sincere. But she also understood that if she let Jiang Lili's parents go easily, the order in the palace would be gone.

"Okay, I'll give you a chance." Lu Yundi finally said, "But you have to promise me that from now on, I will no longer ask about this matter and will no longer have anything to do with your parents."

"I promise you, ma'am." Jiang Lili was overjoyed and nodded in agreement.

Lu Yundi looked at Jiang Lili and couldn't help but feel deeply moved. She knew that the shadow of this betrayal would hang over her heart for a long time, but she also understood that she had to make the right decision for the future of the palace.

In the following days, a series of adjustments were made within the palace. Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian were expelled from the palace, and their property and status were taken away. Jiang Lili was placed in the backyard of the palace, living a secluded life.

However, the peace in the palace did not last long. Just one month later, a mysterious assassin sneaked into the palace and attempted to assassinate Lu Yundi. Fortunately, he was discovered in time and subdued by the palace guards.

After interrogation, the assassin admitted that he was instructed by Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian. It turned out that they had not given up revenge, but were secretly planning a bigger conspiracy.

Inside the palace, people were in a panic, the guards were on high alert as if they were facing a great enemy, and the tense atmosphere was almost frozen. In the meeting room, Lu Yundi's face was as pale as ice, and a barely perceptible ruthless light flashed across his eyes.

"Madam, what should we do?" The loyal maid Ziyuan asked carefully in a soft voice, like a purple orchid swaying in the wind.

Lu Yundi's eyes turned cold, and his tone was as firm as a rock: "Since they dare to provoke me, I must not be lenient. I must root them out and not allow any future troubles."

At this critical moment, Jiang Lili was led into the meeting room by the guards. Witnessing her parents' plight, she was filled with fear and anxiety.

"Li Li, do you know what an unforgivable crime your parents have committed?" Lu Yundi stared at Jiang Li Li with a sharp gaze.

Jiang Lili bowed her head in silence, then bravely raised her head and pleaded, "I know they have committed serious crimes, but I beg Madam to have mercy on them."

Lu Yundi sneered: "Do you think your pleading can change anything? They have violated the bottom line of the palace and must pay the price."

The atmosphere in the meeting room became increasingly solemn. Jiang Lili bit her lips tightly, tears welling up in her eyes.

Suddenly, a guard ran in hurriedly and reported that Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian had been captured and were on standby outside the palace.

Lu Yundi stood up and told Ziyuan, "Take Li Li to meet her parents and let them say goodbye for the last time."

Zi Yuan took the order and slowly walked out of the meeting room with Jiang Lili. Jiang Lili's mood became heavier, and she knew that this farewell might be a farewell forever.

Outside the palace, Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian were tied up, their faces were pale, and their eyes showed despair and regret.

"Mother, father..." Jiang Lili's voice trembled and tears fell like pearls from a broken string.

Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian looked at their daughter, their hearts filled with regret and guilt. They knew that they had brought a heavy burden to their daughter.

"Li Li, I'm sorry to your parents." Ye Wanxue burst into tears and held Jiang Li Li's hand tightly.

Jiang Jilian was heartbroken. He knew that nothing he did now could make up for the harm he had done to his daughter.

Lu Yundi appeared behind Jiang Lili and said in a cold voice: "There is still one thing you can do, that is to confess to the people in the palace and ask for their forgiveness."

Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian knew that this meant they would be humiliated in front of everyone, but they had no way to retreat.

Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian knelt down slowly, and bowed their noble heads in front of everyone in the palace. Ye Wanxue wiped away her tears and tried to keep her voice calm: "Everyone in the palace, my husband and I once lost ourselves in the temptation of power and committed unforgivable crimes. Today, we are willing to confess in front of everyone and ask for your forgiveness."

In the square outside the meeting hall, the palace's servants, guards, and maids crowded around, looking at the once prominent couple with mixed emotions in their hearts. Some sympathized, some were indifferent, and some gloated over their misfortune.

Lu Yundi stood at the door of the meeting room with a cold look. She looked at Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian, but she didn't feel happy at all. She knew that although this punishment taught them a lesson, it also made her heart full of pain. After all, Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian were her confidants, and their betrayal made her feel deeply disappointed.

Jiang Lili stood beside Lu Yundi. She looked at the miserable state of her parents and felt grief in her heart. But she knew that they deserved it. She took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

At this time, an old minister came out. He was a senior counselor in the palace and was known for his fairness and impartiality. He looked at Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian and said in a deep voice: "You two, your crimes are indeed serious, but no one is perfect. Today, you have the courage to admit your mistakes, which is enough to show your repentance. I am willing to plead for you and ask Madam to give you a lighter punishment."

Lu Yundi looked at the old minister, was silent for a moment, and then slowly said: "Since the old minister pleads for you, then I will give you a chance. But you must make compensation and contribute to my palace to atone for your sins."

Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian nodded quickly, knowing that Lu Yundi had given them a way out. They were willing to do anything to atone for their crimes.
