The strict family rules of Prince West Mansion and its sound upbringing of family members meant that neither Lubei nor Husan could manage to pry open Zhu Qiming's mouth to make her confess to being the mastermind behind the assassination.

Husan managed to track down some of Zhu Qiming's handwriting from somewhere, then sat down on the spot to forge a confession. He named Prince West, Zhu Qike, as the mastermind. Not only that, the document stated that Prince West Mansion harbored grand treasonous ambitions planned over many years, and had even tried to drag the neighboring Heavenly Sword Sect down with them.
