As soon as the possibility of a lighter sentence was mentioned, Lady Chen's heart was moved, and she cried out her innocence, "I saw it! I saw it! Please spare me! Spare me!" Her daughter Wenlee had already married an official in the Crown Prince's Chancellery, and her eldest son was also about to undertake tasks for the Crown Prince. The whole family had moved to Capital Jingcheng, and no matter how capable Qian Wanxiu was, she couldn't possibly confront them in Capital Jingcheng, could she?
As she started to confess, Jiang Benxin waved his hand to stop her.
Tears streamed down Lady Chen's face as she cried incessantly, filled with both fear and hatred in her heart.
"Confess the truth!" Jiang Benxin roared furiously.
