The Prince Ning has fallen, Grand Tutor Zhuang has been beheaded, and the entire Zhuang family has been exiled.
Zhuang Yuheng was first expelled from the family by Grand Tutor Zhuang, then achieved merit afterward. Although he could have stayed in the Capital City, he chose to be exiled without hesitation.
When the Zhuang family was at the height of its power, he abandoned all glory and left the family.
When the Zhuang family fell into the mud, he again forsook a bright future and returned to the Zhuang family.
Thinking of him, the Empress Dowager felt both heartache and regret.
She harbored emotions in her heart, but others dared not ask or mention them; only Gu Jiao could make her speak.
The Empress Dowager sighed deeply, "He's now a teacher in a small private school at the border pass. During the day, he teaches, and at night, he helps people write letters and copy documents, earning a meager amount of silver to supplement the family income."
