Raiders of the Empress: My Empress is Too Small

Chapter 328 The Weird Maid

"Your Majesty went to investigate. The money in Liu Shan's hand was indeed given by someone. The mysterious man was not like an ordinary person. He was very cautious. His subordinates followed halfway because they were afraid of being alarmed, so they stopped following."

Feng Qing raised his hand slightly, and said, "You have been following Liu Shan in the past few days to find out his background carefully, who are he dealing with?"

"Yes." After Changsheng replied, he left.

The matter of Mingyou's poisoning has not yet been settled, but rumors about the epidemic have started. The palace said that the food that Concubine Zhuang of Jinxiu Palace specially sent to the queen was stained with the disease, which made the queen get the disease inexplicably.

At night, Xiao Shunzi had just finished his errands and was about to go back to sleep, when he met a furtive shadow on the road, Xiao Shunzi held his breath, followed her lightly, and quickly threw her down and captured her.

"Bold thief, sneaky, what are you doing so shamelessly?" Xiao Shunzi pressed her and said loudly.

The woman who was captured on the ground exclaimed, "Grandpa, please forgive me, I'm not a thief, I, I'm just passing by."

"Which palace?" Xiao Shunzi felt that she was behaving strangely, and never let go, "It's the middle of the night, why aren't you sneaking around and carrying a burden?" If she said there was no ghost, Xiao Shunzi would not believe it.

The little palace maid cried, "I'm really just passing by." Seeing her stubbornness, Xiao Shunzi immediately called the guards over, "There's an assassin here, take it down quickly."

After a while, more than a dozen guards surrounded the little maid, and Xiao Shunzi took a closer look at her with a lantern, and was surprised, "Are you from Jinxiu Palace?"

The little palace lady hesitated and didn't speak, she just kept crying, and Xiao Shunzi who was crying was very irritable, "Tie her up first, check her out before releasing her."

The little palace lady would turn her down, and she would not give up along the way, calling out her wrongdoing.Xiao Shunzi took her package and weighed it, it was quite heavy.

Open it, and there are some clothes, gold and silver jewelry, and some broken silver, although it is not big, but there is a bag, at least four or fifty taels.

Now Xiao Shunzi was even more convinced that this court lady was weird. Did she want to escape from the palace with her money and clothes in the middle of the night?Thinking that she is from Jinxiu Palace, I couldn't help but think of the rumors that some court ladies talked about this afternoon.Could this matter really have something to do with Concubine Zhuang?

Not daring to be sloppy, he took the things back to Weiyang Hall immediately.

Under the night light, Feng Qingqian was dressed in a white dress with loose blue silk, her bright eyes moved slightly, looking at the court lady who was prostrate on the ground, dressed in a smoky willow-colored court lady's attire, her thin body trembling.

Savoring the maid's words carefully, her eyes were full of amusement, "You mean, this thing was given to you by Concubine Zhuang?"

The little palace maid trembled like a sieve, she didn't dare to say anything, Xiao Shunzi reprimanded with a cold face, "Respond to your words well, if you dare to hide it, be careful with your skin."

The little maid couldn't speak clearly, Feng Qing bowed her head lightly, and said with a smile, "Why, I'm really so scary, you dare not even say a word." But there was no smile in his eyes, and he continued, "Since The tongue is useless, so cut it off and feed it to the dogs." There was a chill in his voice.

The little maid kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, it was given to the servants by the empress."

"Heh!" A chuckle came out, "I don't know when Concubine Zhuang will have so many valuable things." Fengqing's thousand-year-old voice could not hear any joy or anger, and the little maid became more and more frightened, not knowing how to answer.

"Because, because, the maidservant did something for the empress, so the empress rewarded the maidservant." The little maid summoned up her courage and said, "However, Your Majesty, the slaveservant is also coerced and dare not not harm the queen. If you don't obey, what will happen to the concubine Zhuang?" Can you spare your slaves?"
