The Duke's mansion
Su Liya was silent all through the journey back to the Duke's mansion. She tried to process the jaw-dropping news that was reported to the Empress. Murdering any member of the Imperial family meant death more so now that it was the Emperor's grandson that was killed. Zhu Feifei was in deep trouble, even her influential father can't save her.
She committed a serious offence, saving her would mean sacrificing not just his position but the lives of everyone in the Zhu family. Zhu Feifei was a goner, even if she somehow kept her life, there is no way she would be allowed to keep her position. For someone like her who values position and wealth as much as she did, losing her position was akin to losing her life.
