The Little Monk Comes Down the Mountain to Spill the Tea, Exposing All of the Capital's Secrets

[Adorable little darling adored by all + gossip and public humiliation + everyone can hear her thoughts + light political intrigue]

Outside the Duke of Dingguo's residence, Second Uncle wore a false smile as he reached to pick up his little niece, Jiang Nuonuo, who had just been brought back from a dilapidated Daoist temple. He meant to use the little girl to earn merit and claim a share of the family fortune.

[Gossip alert! Second Uncle steals money from the family coffers every day to keep his mistress in Peach Blossom Lane. But the child in her belly turns out to be the stable hand who cleans the toilets every day!]

Her sweet little voice exploded in the minds of dozens of people throughout the duke's residence! Second Uncle collapsed in terror, and the boiling tea in his hand scalded right through his boots. The duke drew his horse-slaying saber in one swift motion, while the heir immediately sealed off the estate and ordered a search and an audit!

From that day on, Xiao Chengyuan, the suspicious tyrant regent, became utterly obsessed with this “human lie detector.” Every day, he carried Jiang Nuonuo to the mansions of powerful nobles and had them brutally searched.

If the little darling so much as glanced at someone, that person's entire clan was as good as wiped out! Then one day, her gossip-loving gaze landed on the imperial throne. [Oh my heavens, so the old emperor actually...] The entire court instantly dropped to its knees along the palace walls. Little Ancestor, please, just keep quiet!
