उत्तर
The daughter of the moneylender believed that the monarch would not hang her because she had done nothing wrong. She was not responsible for any man's death. She also knew the King was stupid and could be tricked into believing anything. Everyone else had done the same thing before she arrived. And, as she had expected, her prediction came true.
