Qianhong was surprised for a moment.
Another palace maid hurriedly reminded, “What Wan’nuo? She had changed her name yesterday. She’s Wansi.
“Don’t call her by the wrong name, lest you make Her Majesty and His Highness the Crown Prince unhappy.”
Qianhong was puzzled. “Isn’t she a first-grade palace maid by Her Majesty’s side? How did she anger His Highness?”
The young palace maid shook her head. She was still frightened when mentioning this.
“This servant doesn’t know either. This servant only heard that Wansi went to deliver dinner to His Highness.
“This servant doesn’t know what mistake she made, but His Highness the Crown Prince ordered for her to be flogged to death!”
“She was beaten to death. Everyone around the East Palace heard her agonizing screams last night! ”
“Later on, His Highness despised her for screaming so miserably and got someone to gag her…”
The palace maid at the side was also so frightened that her face turned slightly pale. “His Highness looks like a very gentle person. How could this be?”
A few young palace maids echoed, “That’s right. It’s too scary. His Highness is short of people to serve him now.
“The Palace Affairs Bureau is currently selecting people to send to the East
Palace to serve the crown prince. After the matter on Wansi, I’m scared.”
The few of them trembled in fear. “Wansi has served Her Majesty for almost six years. He killed her just like that…
Qianhong felt that this matter was strange and felt that this crown prince, who had returned from outside, had an unpredictable temper.
However, she quickly interrupted their chatter.
“That’s enough, how can you be nonchalantly discussing about your masters outside? Wansi must have committed a treasonous mistake, that’s why His Highness punished her like this.
“As servants, we naturally go wherever our masters tell us to go.”
She looked at the few young palace maids’ ashen faces, as if they were waiting to die.
Qianhong was kind and couldn’t bear to see them like this.
She comforted them. “Don’t worry. If the Palace Affairs Bureau really wants to transfer you guys over, I’ll also help you plead for leniency with Her Highness
Consort Lu.”
When they heard this, they immediately beamed with joy.
“Really? That’s great. With Consort Lu’s words, we don’t have to go anywhere anymore! Thank you, Sister Qianhong!”
At the same time, in an inn in the Xili Empire’s capital.
The tenth prince, Gu Ziliang, sat in the room, surrounded by the hidden guards he had brought.
There was a topographic map on the table in front of him.
A hidden guard who had scouted the Xili Empire’s imperial city last night pointed at a red marking on the map.
“Your Highness, if we want to infiltrate the capital, we can only break through from here.
“However, recently, the Xili Empire has been on high alert. The guards work hourly shifts and there are patrols everywhere.
“I had only got near the imperial city yesterday and was stopped by a group of imperial guards, let alone being able to enter.”
Gu Ziliang supported his chin with his hand, his ice-blue eyes filled with thought and contemplation.
He knew that his sister had already entered the palace.
Every night, the possibility of his sister encountering danger would increase.
Gu Ziliang closed his eyes slightly.
His mind was filled with fantasies of Gu Nuo’er having no one to rely on. She would curl up in a corner and cry, shouting for her brother to come and save her.
Just thinking about it made Gu Ziliang clench his fists and tighten his jaw.
He was the one who had lost his sister.
He had caused her to suffer!
Gu Ziliang opened his eyes. The ice-blue color of his eyes was like the calm sea before a storm.
“I brought enough incense and poison powder. Even if I have to barge in today, I have to save my sister.
“I can’t just watch her suffer!”
At this moment, Gu Nuo’er had just finished eating a table full of dazzling delicacies.
The child held her stomach and was helped up from the chair by four palace servants while they wiped her mouth.
“Burp-” Gu Nuo’er licked her lips. “I’m so full..”
