Yun Susu hung her head, her expression unreadable.
Jin Die gritted her teeth, mustered up the courage to face their gazes, and said, "It's not the Princess's fault. I'm the one who disclosed our whereabouts to the Fire King."
"Jin Die, what nonsense are you talking about?" Yun Susu's face was full of panic.
"Princess, I'm not talking nonsense. It was indeed me who revealed our whereabouts to the Fire King." Jin Die said with a guilty look, meeting Qin Yi's gaze, "It was all me. You can kill or punish me as you please, but please don't trouble the Princess. She knows nothing about it."
Yun Mengyao asked incredulously, "Why did you do this?"
"I have my reasons, and I don't want to explain. I've done wrong and should be punished. You can do whatever you want with me, but please don't make things difficult for the Princess."
Qin Yi sneered, "A loyal servant indeed. If that's the case, is it not too much for me to kill you?"
