Jiang Sixian's expression suddenly changed.
It turns out that Jiang Shuman was deliberately bluffing her earlier.
Jiang Shuman coldly watched her go from shock and anger to guilt and panic. She used her inner strength to destroy the rag doll in an instant, scattering tattered cloth and straw all over the ground.
"Even though my aunt and mother had some disagreements, they were still family. I never expected my aunt to be so ruthless as to join forces with outsiders to kill our whole family."
Jiang Sixian's scheme was exposed, and she stopped pretending.
"Family? Who treated me like family when I was driven out of the capital? If my father and brothers hadn't died in battle, how could the Duke's title have fallen to Jiang Zhixu? He inherited the family business by stepping on my father and brothers' corpses, yet he wants to wipe me out. The Jiang family owes me, and all of you owe me." She gritted her teeth, sneering repeatedly, "This thing was dug up at the Princess's residence. You dared not hand it over to the Emperor because he is suspicious, and you couldn't explain yourself—"

Jiang Sixian was filled with fear. "No, Your Majesty, I'm innocent! They framed me..."
The Empress finally couldn't stand it any longer and said coldly, "Princess Qingping, His Majesty and I heard everything you just said clearly. What excuse do you have? Eighteen years ago, you tried to kill me, and now you dare to curse His Majesty with witchcraft and sorcery, and even try to sow discord between His Majesty and the Princess. Your heart is truly despicable!"
Jiang Sixian then noticed her, and an uncontrollable look of resentment appeared in her eyes.
"You bitch, it's all your fault—"
Emperor Hongde suddenly stepped forward and slapped her to the ground.
