Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 547

Yun Shang was astonished. "Me?" Yun Shang smiled and let out a small sigh, "it's a puzzling charge. I don't know any servant named Huai Ya. Why did I give her the poison? I don't know why I have always had such troubles recently. Am I not lucky enough this year? "

The empress smiled and said gently to her, "Well, it doesn't matter. It's not a complicated matter. I will have that Huai Ya here and confront you." After saying that, the empress turned her eyes to look at Xia Huanyu and Lady Shu, who both looked indifferent. The empress sent her maid out of the palace, and soon she went in with a maid following her. The maid must have been punished, too. She was in a difficult position, with her hair tousled, and her face was wet. It was hard to tell whether her face was wet with sweat or tears. She was thrown into the palace by the guards, but her legs trembled badly and she suddenly knelt on the ground because she couldn't stand.

The empress looked calm and said calmly, "you said Lady Rui gave the drug to you earlier, but now Lady Rui is here. Just tell her when and where Lady Rui gave it to you."

The maid raised her eyes and glanced around the hall. Then she fixed her eyes on Yun Shang. She stared blankly at Yun Shang for a while, and burst into tears all of a sudden. "Your Highness, help me, help me. I've done everything according to your highness' instructions. Your highness, please help me."

What a good show! Yun Shang looked at her painful face and frowned. "Help you? I've never seen you before, but you framed me up. Why should I save you? "

Hearing this, the maid was stunned, and her eyes were filled with disbelief. After a long time, she said, "Your Highness, you can't leave me in the lurch. I've handled everything for you."

"Since you insist that you have done what I asked, I want to ask you a few questions in front of everyone. Would you like to answer me?" Yun Shang stood quietly and her eyes were calm as well.

Hearing this, the maid called Huai Ya nodded her head quickly and said, "go ahead, your highness."

Yun Shang smiled and whispered, "you said the drug was given by me and I have instructed you to do something, but then I'd like to ask you when and where I gave the drug to you and what I've told you."

Hearing these two questions, Huai Ya replied without hesitation, "Your Highness gave the medicine to me under a osmanthus tree beside the imperial garden yesterday at 2 p.m. and asked me to put the medicine on the goblet of his majesty when his majesty came to the Shuya palace. Your highness also asked me to go to the side hall and tell Miss Qing Ming about it, and she will know what to do. After I followed your orders and did all these things, I went to serve outside the hall. But I don't know what happened inside the hall."

Yun Shang nodded her head slightly. Three days ago, in the afternoon. She recalled what she had done at that time that day. It must be on the way from the Xiang Zhu Palace to the Wei Yang Palace. She did have to pass the imperial garden at that time. Presumably, many palace servants could also prove it. It was a good timing. Presumably the person behind this knew her whereabouts like the back of his hand.

"Your Majesty is in the Shuya Palace now. Doesn't his highness need Lady Shu's company? Where was lady Shu last night and what did she do? " Yun Shang looked up at Lady Shu, who was sitting next to her.

Lady Shu straightened her sleeves and looked up. There was a slight grievance on her face. "I didn't know what was wrong with me yesterday. After having the dinner with his majesty, I somehow lost consciousness. This morning when I woke up, I woke up in the inner hall, by the bed."

Yun Shang nodded her head and turned around to look at Liu Wenan, who was standing behind Xia Huanyu. "Lord Liu has been serving the emperor the whole time. Was he out of the hall last night?"

Liu Wenan nodded his head at once. "Yes, I am serving in the compartment."

"Really? Did you hear something unusual? " Yun Shang asked again.

Liu Wenan thought for a while and shook his head, "No, I didn't."

Yun Shang rolled her eyes and thought to herself, 'Liu Wenan doesn't have to lie to me. As for lady Shu...' Yun Shang looked up at Lady Shu. But after a short pause, she looked away.

After a moment's silence, Yun Shang looked at the maid named Huai Ya again. "You said that I gave the medicine to you under the osmanthus tree in the imperial garden, then do you remember that I had my maid with me? If I did, which maid did I bring with me?"

Huai Ya didn't expect that Yun Shang would ask her this question. She was surprised and looked behind Yun Shang. Yun Shang curled her lips into a smirk. There was only one person behind her. That was the empress.
