Hearing her husband repeatedly shove the blame onto her, Jiang Wuyan, whether out of numbness or sheer endurance, did not show a hint of dissatisfaction. Instead, she responded with an air of even greater bewilderment and anxiety.
"No, that’s not it. You told me to give the bracelet to the Princess. Before I handed it to her, I didn't even dare to open the box." She paused, then, as if just realizing she had misspoke, she hurriedly corrected herself. "I... I mistakenly thought you wanted me to give it to her, so I didn't dare to touch it much. I... I can’t see the bracelet, so I don't know if it looks nice, nor do I know if it could hold anything inside..."
Thus, there was no reason to go out of her way to pry it open, nor did she have the means to place anything inside the bracelet on the way to the Eldest Princess's estate. Furthermore, she didn't even know how the bracelet was constructed; how could she possibly know if it could be opened to store items?
