Those five maids and servants who had taken bribes from King Liang's Mansion, upon seeing Chun Yan's fate, were already trembling uncontrollably, only bowing their heads incessantly to beg for mercy.
Mrs. Dong, infuriated by Chun Yan to the point of chest pain, gritted her teeth and said, "Steward Hao, handle this according to the rules. Do not go easy on them..."
Steward Hao immediately stepped forward, efficiently dealing with these five money-grabbing individuals by breaking their legs and having their entire families taken and sold.
With the year-end approaching, the Princely Heir's wife, Mrs. Dong, due to the unclear entanglement between the household staff of the Duke of Zhen's residence and King Liang's Mansion, reorganized the mansion thoroughly. Those deserving punishment were punished, and those to be sold were sold. Even a few stewards were implicated and unjustly affected.
