The old woman shrank back in fright: "Your Highness."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, didn't you hear me? Father has abandoned me. I am no longer a prince; I am just a commoner." Mu Junyao practically shouted.
"It's because of you all!"
Mu Junyao pointed to the two governesses.
"Don't you know what despicable things you've done?"
"Why did Consort Shu tell you not to continue serving Mu Junxi? Why are you here with me?"
"Don't you guys have any self-awareness?"
"I was ruined by the two of you."
“The Fifth Prince has the protection of his biological mother. Consort Shu has just been released from confinement, and the first thing she thinks of is her own child. She wants to find a reliable nanny for her child.”
"Not like me!"
"I was just a wild child that nobody wanted and nobody cared for."
"The Empress only cares about herself and her wealth and glory. I am just a pawn in her struggle for favor."
Mu Junyao's face was contorted with rage as he pinched the tip of his index finger with his thumb.
"If she were to treat me even the slightest bit with any kindness, she wouldn't let any of you serve me."
“I will not let the Fifth Prince’s unwanted governess serve me.”
"How ridiculous!"
"Even the Emperor favored this Consort Shu and actually agreed to it."
“Your Highness, it’s better if you’re deposed. My title as a prince sounds like a joke. I’m just an unwanted prince, a prince who has been abandoned and will never be valued.”
"Hahaha……"
Mu Junyao burst into wild laughter, as if he had gone mad.
The governess who had been kicked to the ground shook her head desperately: "Your Highness, you have misunderstood Her Majesty the Empress."
"How can you not understand Her Majesty the Empress's good intentions at all?"
Completely forgetting that Wu Jixiang was standing beside her, she said, "Your Highness, how can you not understand the Empress's good intentions at all? Why does the Fifth Prince think we are bad? Why is the Fifth Prince good-for-nothing since childhood, only knowing how to gnaw on chicken legs and eat all sorts of things, and has become so fat?"
"That's all because of us. It's because Her Majesty the Empress instructed us to serve the Fifth Prince like this. As long as we spoil the Fifth Prince, there will be one less person to compete with you for the throne in the future."
"Your Highness, you are confused. Everything the Empress has done is for your sake."
"And the Second Prince and the Third Prince..."
Before the governess could finish speaking, she looked up and saw Wu Jixiang, and hurriedly shut her mouth.
She said nothing more.
Instead, the eldest prince also suddenly fell silent. He slowly turned his head in shock and looked at the governess on the ground.
The governess glanced at Wu Jixiang with a hint of hesitation, then slowly shook her head at him.
Mu Junyao took a step forward, standing directly next to the governess. He squatted down, grabbed her collar with both hands, and shouted, "What did you say? What were you just saying?"
The governess kept her eyes closed, and no matter how frantically he pulled and tugged at her, she dared not utter another word.
Wu Jixiang waved his finger at the people behind him.
Two guards pulled Mu Junyao up from the ground, one on each side.
"Alright, Your Highness, it's almost time. Let this old servant escort you out of the palace..."
