They wouldn't dare to offend the royal family.
Therefore, everyone had a tacit understanding to leave the third Prince out of this matter!
The final verdict was that Zeng Yiming would be executed at noon the next day!
Although the Zeng family wasn't exterminated, the items they had obtained through underhanded means were all returned to the victims, especially the Lin family.
By the time the Zeng family returned the things that didn't belong to them, they had less than 20% of what they had.
In just a short while, the Zeng family had turned from a big family to a small family. Those who had grudges against the Zeng family, or those who had hit them when they were down, immediately came over to step on them.
In the end, the Zeng family's descendants were taken to repay their debts. The men were sold as slaves, and the women were sold to brothels as prostitutes. Those who were not beautiful were also sold as maidservants!
