Chapter 104: Poisoned Her

Hearing everyone talking about it, Nanny Wu showed a bit of fear on her face.

She took two steps back and pushed the snowballs away even harder.

"Get out, you little beast, get out of here now!" Aunt Wu was anxious and growled as she tried to kick the snowball away.

Seeing that no one believed her, Mo Yuyao became more and more afraid.

If the Empress Dowager knew what she had done, she might not protect her anymore.

And there's the Queen Mother and the Emperor, they weren't used to her on a normal day.

After such a commotion, maybe they will keep a closer watch on her and be even more irritated with her from now on.

With a sudden thought, Mo Yuyao pretended to be shocked and looked at Aunt Wu, "Mammy, is it really you?"

"How could you be so cruel as to poison Princess Mingzhu!"

After hearing this, Nanny Wu looked at Mo Yuyao in surprise.

She did all these things at Mo Yuyao's orders.

Even though many of the ideas were hers, they were also Mo Yuyao's request.

"Princess, how can you say that!" Nanny Wu knelt down in front of Mo Yuyao.

"Mammy, you are behaving immorally. You will corrupt your grandchildren by doing this." Mo Yuyao shook her head, with an expression that was difficult to explain.

"No!" Aunt Wu wanted to explain further, but suddenly seemed to think of something.

She turned around and kowtowed to Xiao Tangbao and Qin Yunshuang, "I am possessed by a ghost!"

"I have always heard that Princess Mingzhu is the reincarnation of a goddess, but I never believed it."

"I thought, since she's a goddess, she should be able to tell whether it's poisonous or not. Even if I eat it, my body should be fine, so I gave it a try."

"Princess Mingzhu is indeed as the legend goes. She is extremely intelligent and can even talk to birds and beasts."

After hearing this explanation, Xiaotangbao couldn't help laughing.

[She herself blushes when she says this, and she can even lie so righteously. ]

[As expected, like master, like servant. This Mo Yuyao is also an expert at making excuses and passing the buck.]

[Humph, it’s just that you don’t speak fluently enough, otherwise I would definitely kill these hypocritical master and servant. ]

When the Queen heard what Xiao Tangbao was thinking, her heart sank, but she did not show it on her face.

Mo Yuyao thought she had concealed the truth, and hurriedly continued, "Madam, just admit your mistake. The Queen Mother is very generous and kind, and will forgive you."

The Queen frowned when she heard this, "It's not the right place to be magnanimous and generous like this."

"I think a little nanny wouldn't dare to commit such a crime."

"As for what you just said about being curious about Princess Mingzhu's power and resorting to this desperate measure, that's a bit too much."

"Madame Wu is guilty of a heinous crime. She should be punished with thirty strokes of the cane, and then we will interrogate her thoroughly to find out who is the mastermind behind this."

After the Queen's words, Mo Yuyao's face turned pale.

She never expected that the Queen would speak like this.

"Mother, please...please be lenient with her because Madam Wu is my old maid."

[Still pretending, the children in the palace are really amazing. They are only a few years old, but their acting skills are already good enough to be the leader of the Southern Opera Troupe.]

Little Tangbao looked at Mo Yuyao and shook his head vigorously.

[It’s useless, it’s useless. This little kid has a black heart. He is useless. 】

When the Empress heard the words "Nanqu Band", she was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

But he still maintained a stern look on his face.

"Yuyao, she is someone close to you. Are you aware of this?"

Mo Yuyao's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

After all, she is still young, and after enduring for such a while, she has reached her psychological limit.

Mo Yuyao's voice began to tremble, "Mother, I really don't know."

"You must trust me. Besides, I have no reason to harm Princess Mingzhu."

When the Queen heard this, her brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing that her mood had relaxed a little, Mo Yuyao immediately burst into tears and knelt down at the feet of the Empress.

Normally, whenever she used this method, the Empress would feel sorry for her.

But this time, the Queen Mother just sat there, motionless, and did not help her up to comfort her like she did before.

Seeing this, Mo Yuyao panicked.

Little Tangbao couldn't help but roll his eyes when he saw her behavior.

[That makes sense. You've always disliked me, so now you've found a chance to take revenge on me.]

[Thanks to my sensitive nose, the little cat also has a sensitive nose. If it were someone without such a sensitive nose, they would definitely be poisoned.]

"Don't lie." Little Tangbao stared at Mo Yuyao, "Cat said, it's you."

Hearing this, Mo Yuyao's ears turned red, "Why are you slandering me!"

"This cat is just a beast, what does it understand!"

"Why hasn't anyone come to drag this beast out and beat him to death!" Mo Yuyao turned and looked at the palace maids and eunuchs.

They looked at each other, then at the Empress' expression, and no one dared to move.

Even though they knew that if they didn't listen to Mo Yuyao now, Mo Yuyao would definitely find an opportunity to teach them a lesson in the future.

But now the Empress was present, and they dared not move without the Empress's order.

"Yuyao, if you tell the truth now, I can punish you less severely."

"If I find out that you did it and you don't admit it, I will just pretend that I don't have a daughter like you from now on!"

Little Tangbao listened to the stern words of the Queen Mother, looked at Mo Yuyao whose face turned pale because of these words, put his little hands under the table, and clapped silently.

[Your Majesty, you did a great job. You must be strict when educating your children. To cultivate a habit is like killing a child! ]

"I didn't!" Mo Yuyao was angry and glared at Nanny Wu.

"Tell me, who instructed you to do this? If you can't explain clearly, according to the law, your whole family will be punished!"

Hearing this, Aunt Wu lowered her head heavily.

She knew exactly what Mo Yuyao meant.

Mo Yuyao is using her children and grandchildren as a threat.

Although Mo Yuyao is only a few years old, given her personality, she is capable of doing such a cruel thing.

Thinking of this, Nanny Wu kowtowed deeply to Mo Yuyao, and also kowtowed to the Empress and Xiao Tangbao.

"I was deceived and made a mistake. Please forgive me, Her Majesty, Princess Mingzhu, and Madam Yongyi."

After saying this, Nanny Wu suddenly stood up and rushed directly to the pillar beside her.

Instantly, blood splashed on the spot.

Mo Yuyao was so frightened when she saw this scene. She took a few steps back and hugged the queen's legs tightly.

"Madame Wu, she...she is..."

"Mo Yuyao!" The Queen slammed the table, "How long will you keep making mistakes?"

"Come here, take all the palace guards in Yuyao Palace to the Ministry of Punishment for strict interrogation!"

"I don't believe that I can't find out clearly!"
