That evening, prince Melone gathered his wives in the throne room with some ministers and announced that he was stripping consort Banny off her status and making her a concubine for all the evil she had done in the past.
No one could believe it but they had to accept it, then he named concubine Lotus as his consort who would be living outside the palace.
At first, the ministers didn't want to agree but when consort Banny and concubine Solace's crimes were brought to the table, they had to agree.
Prince Melone didn't just strip consort Banny off her position, he made her and concubine Solace less powerful, cutting off most of their network just so they don't hurt Lotus and their baby.
As for their maternal families, he revealed the skeleton in their cupboards and they were punished duly with some of the family members getting killed.
