Chapter 235: 235: It will be alright

No one spoke up when the princess asked this question. They were terrified to say something wrong and get caught by the princess.

But the more they kept quiet, the angrier Princess Yunjin got.

Even if the gatherers could not see that anger, they could feel it boiling under Princess Yunjin's mask.

'W-We will all die at this rate. I need to speak up and tell the princess what happened!'

One of the brave servants decided to take a risk and raise her head.

"P-Princess! I-I saw your guard. C-Concubine Hwasa gave her something to drink and dragged her out of the palace. I-I wanted to stop her, but I did not have enough authority! I beg you to spare me."

Everyone looked at the speaker as if she were a fool. And the speaker felt like a fool as well.

There had been no reason for her to speak her mind and admit what she did openly. But there was no other choice to make here.
