Mo Shu looked at Mo Qing and said softly, "Fortunately, I brought the witness from that day."
It was one of the Death Soldiers.
Mo Qing looked down, her expression slightly changed.
She certainly knew these people, and most of them even grew up alongside her.
Although she was in the open, they were in the shadows.
In her mother’s words, these people were Death Soldiers, as lowly as shadows.
They were born to die in her place.
From birth, they were instilled with the idea of sacrificing their lives for her at any ti. Such lackeys, once they perceive any threat to their master, would inevitably choose to die on their own.
But now, those shadows she couldn’t even see normally were captured by Mo Shu.
And they might even betray her...
Mo Qing was montarily unable to accept such a discrepancy, glaring at those below, her eyes filled with warning.
The leading Death Soldier, upon eting Mo Qing’s gaze, felt extrely conflicted.
Nobody knew what they had gone through these past few months.
They had initially resolved to die.
But unexpectedly, Mo Shu found their weakness, sothing even they hadn’t realized.
These people were destined to live in darkness from the start.
No family, no friends, no emotions.
Each one of them had an independent personality, but they were also individual human beings...
Like many others, they yearned for freedom, yearned for... living like normal people.
At first, Princess Mo imprisoned them in the woodshed.
About half a month later, they were thrown into the civilian living area.
There were households with smoke curling from the chimneys.
There were old people, children, and couples, all forming healthy families and normal human lives.
Completely different from their own naless, solitary existence.
Initially, they felt no emotion, even finding it botherso, but over ti, they began to envy it.
Princess Mo said that if they revealed everything they knew, they would be set free.
Additionally, they would receive a large sum of money and be helped to settle down in a good place.
So who still insisted on loyalty to the Second Princess had already taken their own lives. The ones left were those wanting to return to a normal life.
Mo Shu walked to one of the Death Soldiers and said, "Tell us, who was involved in the events of that day?"
That person was the highest-ranking among the Death Soldiers.
Facing Mo Qing’s unfriendly gaze, he ultimately chose to betray, saying, "That day, the Second Princess sent her maidservant Qing i, and after finding a civilian family, she had them locate a fertility redy."
Mo Qing’s face turned pale.
Qing i, who had been kneeling by Mo Qing’s side all along, was trembling like a sieve.
Qing i was a maid with a timid nature, and rely being ntioned was enough to overwhelm her.
Moreover, as soon as the Death Soldier’s words fell, many who recognized Qing i turned their gaze toward her.
Qing i’s hands were shaking, almost to the point of tears.
Mo Qing, in her urgency, nearly slapped her, while the Empress also closed her eyes heavily.
Mo Shu chuckled lightly, "Qing i? Is she in the hall?"
"Yes," the Death Soldier looked in Mo Qing’s direction, pointing at the little maid who was trembling like a leaf, "that’s her."
