In just a few minutes, she thought it over and over again, and finally gritted her teeth and prepared to take a gamble. She turned around and knelt down in front of Mo Yan.

"Your Highness, I am guilty."

Mo Yan took a look and found it interesting, so she dismissed everyone else and kept only Steward Li.

"Speak."

Mo Yan sat down and then looked at Aunt Xue indifferently.

Aunt Xue had only one thought in her mind: Sure enough, Her Highness the Princess knew, otherwise she wouldn't have tested her.

She hoped she had made the right move.

"Your Highness, I was originally the daughter of a disgraced official."

If you're going to be honest, you should tell everyone everything; otherwise, how can anyone believe you?

Of course, she didn't know exactly how much the princess had found out at that moment.

"continue."

Mo Yan took the snacks and slowly savored them in the pavilion.

I took a bite, and it tasted pretty good.

“My father had an accident at the time. I was supposed to become the lowest-ranking palace maid, but I was sold out and was rescued by the young master.”

Later, the concubine was settled in the young master's villa.

I have never dared to have any wild ideas.

This tea is something I truly wanted to offer to Your Highness, but I just discovered that there's something wrong with it; it contains something that shouldn't be there.

"Your Highness, I am now the young master's concubine and the second young lady's mother. The two most important people to me are here, and everything I say is true."

After she finished speaking, Aunt Xue kept kowtowing.

To put it simply, her confession seems to have said everything, yet it also seems to have said nothing at all.

It's just that she and Han Wen are now one. For her daughter's sake and for Han Wen's sake, she wouldn't do anything to betray the Princess's Mansion.

In other words, she was only expressing her sincerity, but it was a very perfunctory expression of it.

"If you're going to be honest, you need to be sincere. Otherwise, you might as well say nothing at all. I'll give you another chance."

Who sent you? Remember to tell the truth, or this princess won't be so polite.

"Speaking of your foolish daughter, what kind of family will she be able to marry into?"

These words made Aunt Xue's face turn pale; she was worried that her daughter would be married off poorly.

In fact, Mo Yan felt that her daughter was not good enough for the young masters of the aristocratic families in the capital.

What use is a woman who only knows romance and can't manage the household? Would marrying her just cause you trouble?

"Your Highness! That's your granddaughter."

Aunt Xue panicked, she was really panicked now, that was her daughter, how could she not be worried.

"I don't even want my ungrateful son anymore, do you think I would care about a granddaughter?"

You either tell the truth, or I, the princess, will pluck out your and your daughter's fingernails one by one and use them as fertilizer, how about that?

Or this princess could find a few suitable husbands for your good daughter; after all, that's all she thinks about.

Aunt Xue plopped down on the ground, too terrified to look up.

She never expected that such a kind-looking princess could say such terrifying things.

The princess is using her daughter to threaten her.

"Your Highness, I am a person sent by the Emperor. The Emperor said that he hopes I will take a good look at what kind of person the Crown Prince really is."

Those tea leaves were also given to the concubine by the Emperor…

After she finished speaking, she kept kowtowing, kowtowing repeatedly, until blood came out.

Mo Yan took a sip of tea but didn't react.

After a long while, she finally looked at Aunt Xue and said, "Is this your honesty? It seems you think this princess is too gentle."

Do you think that this princess won't do anything to you?

Aunt Xue kept shaking her head, her forehead already covered in blood.
