C137 (1/2)

In the dead of night in the palace, the entire Phoenix Nest Palace was abnormally brightly lit.

At this time, Li Ruolan was lazily lying on the soft collapse, one hand holding onto that half of her exquisite face, while the corner of her mouth had a thirty to fifty percent smile, making her seem dark and cold.

”Let her out!” The lazy voice came out lightly, with a hint of playfulness in it.

Hearing that, the two guards untied the ropes from the gunny sack, and the woman who was unconscious inside finally revealed her head. Seeing that the girl was still unharmed, Li Ruolan frowned slightly in dissatisfaction.

She had been poisoned and vomited so much blood that she had almost failed to save the prince. However, these people who had hurt her were able to eat and drink in the prison cell safe and sound. Immediately, Li Ruolan slowly opened her mouth: ”Wake him up for me!”

”Your servant obeys!” Pearl trotted out to get a pail of cold water, and without a word poured it over her.

After being stimulated by the cold water, Liu Yue woke up from her stupor and looked around in confusion.

She only knew that she fainted after eating, but why did she wake up here?

Liu Yue looked around, and her gaze finally landed on the woman lying down on the soft bed, and was immediately stunned.

”What a bold palace maid. She actually dared to stare at the Empress without bowing!” Pearl's cold voice came out, and then she slapped Liu Yue's face.

Liu Yue who had not reacted to what was happening covered her face with one hand and looked at her in shock. After a long while, she opened her mouth, and spoke in a voice filled with fear and anger: ”What are you guys trying to do?”

”What are we not doing? Today, we asked you to come here because we wanted to ask you a question.” You just have to tell me who ordered you to do this, and I'll spare your little life. Li Ruolan said softly.

Liu Yue was frightened, but at the same time she replied: ”No one is ordering me!”

”Oh? So you have already admitted that you were the one who poisoned this palace? ” Li Ruolan looked at her with interest.

”Imperial Concubine, this servant was wrongly accused. This servant didn't poison him!” Liu Yue was a straightforward person, if not for what she did, how would she admit to it?

Li Ruolan would not let her go so easily. She let out a cold snort, and with a light brush of her long sleeves, she stood up and slowly walked towards her: ”You're already at this point, yet you still don't admit? ”Damned duckling, you're so stubborn …”

”Empress, her mistress is Aunt Anran …” Zhu Er did not use too much strength, and it was coincidentally loud enough for Liu Yue to hear.

After hearing that, Li Ruolan seemed to have thought of this question, and laughed: ”So that's how it is. That bitch Shi Anran, just doesn't like me getting pampered, and is even angrier that I beat her up earlier, so you got someone to poison her, right?”

Liu Yue quickly shook her head: ”It's not like that! The young mistress didn't poison him at all! This servant doesn't know what's going on. ”

”You don't know? Well, your master always knows, doesn't he? As long as you obediently admit that Shi Anran ordered you to poison someone, I can let you go. ” Actually, this was Li Ruolan's real goal. She had long been unable to get used to Shi Anran's noble and noble appearance.

It didn't matter if Shi Anran ordered it or not, she would push the blame onto Shi Anran this time and pull her into the water.

So she was trying to force him to wrongly accuse the young mistress! A thought silently appeared in Liu Yue's heart, and he forced himself to calm down as he said, ”What this servant has never done before, this servant will definitely not admit it.

Li Ruolan slightly raised her white and tender chin, her red lips slightly parted. ”What a stubborn and lowly maid. Pearl, think of a way to make her speak.”
