"Shut up!" the Fourth Master slammed the table.
"Lady Gao, I'll give you one more chance to speak. What exactly happened!"
The Fourth Master's face was extremely ugly as he stared fixedly at Lady Gao.
Lady Gao glanced at Lady Li, ultimately bowing her head: "It was... per Lady Li's (Main Wife's) instructions, she... gave Hua Nu the medicine and ordered this servant to visit Princess Geng every day..."
"You shameless wretch! When did I ever give you medicine? Lady Gao, how dare you frame me!" Lady Li slapped her across the face with a swing of her hand.
With a smack, Princess Gao's face bore the imprint of five fingers.
"Fujin, since Lady Gao has framed Lady Geng, have her confined to a quiet place to reflect and cultivate her character. Execute these two servants. Lady Li is to be confined to her quarters," the Fourth Master said after a moment of silence, gazing at the fuming Lady Li and the pale Lady Gao.
