Xiao Chengyi squinted his eyes, glanced at Shen Wanyue coldly, and said in a cold tone: "Let me ask you, who did it?"
Shen Wanyue shivered with fright. She suddenly knelt on the ground and said, "Please show mercy, Your Majesty. Don't blame Hongyu. She did this all for me."
Hongyu, who was standing not far away, was stunned for a moment, with a surprised look on his face.
Shen Wanyue burst into tears, and then continued: "Hongyu didn't know why, but she thought that the third princess had seduced the prince, so she got angry and started to teach her a lesson. It's all because of my lax governance. If the prince wants to punish me, then punish me."
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyes and glanced at Hongyu who was standing not far away. He saw an expression of disbelief on her face, and she stood there blankly without any rebuttal.
Almost at the first glance, he could see that Shen Wanyue was using Hongyu to blame her, and he became furious. He thought that his fiancée was just being petty, but he didn't expect to have such a vicious temper.
He didn't dare to admit what he had done, but instead blamed it on the maids around him.
It's simply unbearable.
But before he got angry, Mu Yun'an spoke first: "So, the hidden weapon just now was placed by the maid next to you?"
Shen Wanyue frowned and turned around to scold Hong Yu: "Why don't you kneel down and apologize to the third princess?"
Hongyu felt desolate in her heart. She never thought that the master to whom she was loyal and loyal would one day push her out and take the blame for her.
In fact, even if she didn't do this, she would still stand up.
However, it shouldn't be done this way.
Thinking of the past, their young lady treated her like a family member and never treated her like a servant. But now, because of her amnesia, her temperament has changed drastically and she will never be the same again.
Her heart ached.
Hongyu closed her eyes, then resigned to her fate and knelt on the ground, lowered her head and said: "It's your fault. If the third princess is to blame, just blame me."
Mu Yun'an looked at Hong Yu, feeling heartbroken.
She knew that the uninformed Hongyu was guarding her loyalty and endured the pain before admitting the crime, but it was not worth it. Shen Wanyue was not worthy of her being the scapegoat.
Mu Yun'an's eyes narrowed, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes: "How can I blame you? My sister just said it was because she was not strict in governing.
He casually said that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Since she must be punished, she must be punished." After saying that, she looked at Shen Wanyue who was kneeling on the ground and asked: "Sister An, am I right?"
Shen Wanyue was stunned, but she understood what Mu Yun'an meant. Did the three princesses want to use the topic to punish her? But she had already said her words. If she regretted it, wouldn't it be a slap in her face?
She simply gave up and said, "Yes, Sister Jiang is right. It's all my sister's fault. If you want to punish me, just punish me."
Mu Yun'an was waiting for her words. She walked over and picked up the throwing knife that fell on the ground: "Since Sister An said so, I won't be polite.
I was frightened by the flying knife just now, so I’ll punish Sister An to have a taste of the flying knife."
She played with the flying knife in her hand, then looked back at Xiao Chengyi and asked, "Brother Yi, do you agree?"
Xiao Chengyi raised his eyebrows and said in a calm voice: "This is your matter, you can solve it yourself."
Mu Yun'an smiled: "Then it's settled." She curled her lips and said to Liancheng behind her: "Go and tie her to the tree over there."
Liancheng nodded, stepped forward and pulled Shen Wanyue up.
Shen Wanyue's face changed drastically when she saw this, she looked at Mu Yun'an and asked, "Sister Jiang, what are you going to do?"
