step by step

Chapter 308
The surrounding air seemed to be frozen, all the guests were silent, holding their breath, waiting for the next thing.

"Speak clearly. If there is something wrong, I will definitely punish the villain severely. Su'er, help him up quickly, and speak well." Kunyu ordered.

"Thank you princess, thank you princess." The woman thanked her quickly, and she finally gained confidence, "If the servant girl doesn't go to the warehouse to get the medicinal materials, Yueniang will die of illness in the mansion... She has been imprisoned for a long time, and she is about to die. ..."

When speaking of the word Yueniang, Ye Zhaoyan clearly noticed that the figure of the young man in front of him froze for a moment.

"Just invite that Yueniang out."

"Yes." The woman stood up as if she had been pardoned, and was about to walk to the backyard, but was blocked by the servants outside.

"Wait!" Tong Qian, the steward of the Zhuo Palace who had been blocked all the time, stopped the woman. He struggled to break away from the guards and fell out.

"Princess, Yue Niang is the son of Zhuo Wang's family. Now she has committed a crime and is being guarded. She has been insane for the past few days, talking nonsense, and it is inconvenient to come out to the public. The old servant is afraid that she will disturb the princess's peace." Tong Qian respectfully explained.

This is what Princess Zhuo once sent someone to tell him that if Yueniang had anything to do, she had to report to King Zhuo first, and she was not allowed to make her own claims.

Princess Zhuo rarely made such a request to him, of course he remembered.

After Tong Qian said these words, he glanced at Kunyu calmly, and then said to everyone: "Why don't you ask the doctor to treat Yueniang privately, and take care of this matter when the illness is better. I believe there is a princess in the house." , no villain dares to make trouble in secret, so as not to cause trouble."

Hearing these remarks, many people couldn't help feeling resentful, and speculated in their hearts that the people from the Zhuo Palace were trying to suppress the matter.

After all, no one wants to have any accidents at their own banquet. If something goes wrong, these housekeepers and maidservants will not be able to please them.

Just when everyone's minds of watching the excitement gradually calmed down, the woman spoke again, with a trembling voice: "This matter can't be left as it is, princess! You must make the decision for Yueniang! Maybe Yueniang's death will happen after today. Life is gone!"

Kunyu narrowed her eyes slightly, "Do you know the consequences of lying to me?"

The woman trembled in fright: "My servant is telling the truth, I dare not lie to His Highness, and I hope the princess will be the master of Yueniang."

As she spoke, she kowtowed to Kunyu with a plop, and her forehead hit the floor hard with a bang.

This situation caused everyone in the venue to whisper, it seems that there are many dirty things in Zhuo Wang's mansion, but this time it was exposed to the public.

"Go invite Yueniang." Kunyu waved her hand, her attitude was uncompromising, and even Tong Qian who was on the side could only hold back for the time being.

"Yes, princess."

After a while, a woman with disheveled hair was lifted out. Her cheeks were sunken, her eyes were sunken, and she looked like she had been tortured.

Seeing her, all the guests present showed expressions of pity, some even shook their heads, lamenting the crime.

Not only did Yueniang describe it as miserable, she even became disabled and could barely walk.

Ye Zhaoyan glanced at her attire, and knew that this woman was not an ordinary servant in the Zhuo Palace.

Although her face is haggard, her clothes are still neat, and more importantly, her attire is different from any servant girl in the Zhuo Palace.

"Are you the Moon Mother?"

Yueniang heard the words, and slowly raised her head, "Yueniang sees the princess."

"Get up."

"The servant girl deserves to die, she shouldn't bother the princess, please punish her!"

"It's okay, Yueniang, seeing that you are in a dire situation, I can tell you if you have any unspeakable secrets." Princess Kunyu said straight to the point.

After hesitating for a moment, Yueniang raised her head and carefully looked at the people around her. Her eyes were black and blue, but her eyes were frighteningly bright. She glanced quietly through the crowd twice, and only passed a young man from Zhilan Yushu. Then, he flinched slightly.

And the young man was watching the woman's figure all the time, and happened to meet Yueniang's eyes.

It's just that he turned his back to Ye Zhaoyan, so she couldn't know the expression on his face.

But judging from the signs just now, it won't be a good color.

Ye Zhaoyan's eyelids twitched, always feeling that things were out of her control, or out of her expectation.

Sure enough, the next second, Yueniang began to cry loudly, "Your Highness, the servant is guilty, the servant is sorry for the lord, I am sorry for the princess, woo..."

After all, he knelt on the ground with a plop, crying bitterly.

"What's going on!" Kunyu shouted, "Quickly explain everything clearly."

"The servant girl was originally taking care of the young master outside the border, but when the young master was less than one year old, the nanny suddenly became seriously ill. The maid happened to have a son, so the maid took over the job of the nanny and took the baby into the house to take care of him. Who would have thought that when he woke up one day after half a month, the young master had a high fever, and the servants were afraid of being punished for not being able to take care of them, so they kept the matter secret, and quietly took the young master to the clinic."

Yueniang's crying voice was hoarse and rough, which only made people feel depressed, but her tears kept falling, which made people unbearable to criticize.

Ye Zhaoyan frowned, feeling a strange feeling in his heart.

These words sounded reasonable at first glance, but she was keenly aware of a sense of disobedience. This person spoke too cleanly, as if she had already prepared this set of words.

It happened so suddenly, everyone couldn't hold back their curiosity long ago, they just wanted to hear her solve the mystery, and no one studied the weirdness carefully.If it was normal, it would not be so easy.

"But the doctor in the medical center refused to diagnose and treat him. They also said that the young master would not survive, and the servant girl had no choice but to take the young master to the nearest state capital to report the news." Speaking of this, Yueniang paused for a few breaths. , Then he gritted his teeth and lowered his head: "I never expected it, but after half a day's journey, the young master couldn't bear it... The maid's negligence caused the child to lose his life, the maid really couldn't bear it, The servant girl is extremely guilty and wishes to be buried with the young master!"

After saying that, the woman knelt down on the ground, trembling already.

At this time, the guests in the mansion were shocked by their hearts, and stopped discussing one after another.

The young master of the Zhuo Palace died outside the border when he was less than one year old?

Doesn't that mean.
"Pa——" Kunyu slammed the folding fan suddenly, and looked at the woman with a gloomy expression: "Do you know what you are talking about?!"

"The servant girl said everything is true, please learn from the princess!" Yueniang cried.

Kunyu snorted coldly, and reprimanded sharply: "It's so true, since what you said so, you can talk about it, the child has gone early, and who is the young master of Zhuowang's mansion now?"

Yueniang froze for a moment, and glanced at the young man in the crowd, the unbearable expression on her face was very obvious: "He is the son of the maidservant."

When this sentence fell to the ground, there was an uproar on the field!

The nobles present were all amazed, and they were discussing in whispers one by one, but the young man who was hotly discussed in the field did not change his expression except for his complexion slightly condensed.

"This, how is it possible? This is impossible, Yueniang, are you lying to us?" Tong Qian was already in a cold sweat.
