C577 Revealing the face (1/2)

When she raised her eyes, her gaze met Princess An Guo's for a moment. Princess An Guo gave her a slight nod before following Ji mama out.

Xiao Zhenhai narrowed his eyes. When his gaze landed on Lian Ruyue, a deep coldness appeared in the corner of his eyes.

Within Rongyuan Palace.

Princess An looked at Lan Jing, the palace maid kneeling on the ground, and asked, ”This princess will ask you again, were you the one who set the fire?”

Lan Jing saw that the princess knew that the princess was dying miserably, so she tried to push Princess Thirteen's words to her head in an attempt to get away. When she saw that the princess of An Kingdom was about to die, she bit her answer and said,

”To return to the princess of An Kingdom, it is as Zhi Li said, Princess Eleven has never punished a servant, and I do not hold a grudge against Princess Eleven, nor do I hold a grudge against her.

Even if Princess Eleven had really punished this servant and this master had punished this servant, this servant would have taken it and never had any thoughts of revenge.

If one were to talk about punishments, Princess Thirteen would have to really punish this servant several times. This servant didn't want to kill Princess Thirteen, but rather served her wholeheartedly.

Lan Jing said as she rolled up her sleeves. She saw that her wrist had a burn mark. It was red in color and had a blister on it. From afar, the burn mark was the shape of a butterfly.

”This is because this servant originally didn't want to set fire to the fire. When Princess Thirteen punished this servant, she burned the butterfly hairpin on her head red on the oil lamp, scalding the mark left behind by this servant.”

”You, you slut, you're slandering me with your mouth! This princess will tear your slut to shreds! When did this princess use a hairpin to burn you? You must have been working with others and injured yourself to wrongly accuse me! You slut …” Feng Yu was unable to hold back. She suddenly stood up, rushed in front of Lan Jing, and slapped her a few times. She really wanted to kill her!

This was the first time that anyone present had seen her like this, and they couldn't help but reveal looks of astonishment in their eyes. Especially Zhou Chengdi, when his Yao'er spat out those filthy words, he suspected that there was something wrong with his eyes and ears, which was far too different from the gentle and lovable appearance he remembered.

”You Yao'er!” When Lian Zhaoyi saw this, he knew that the situation was bad. He hurriedly went forward and covered Feng Yu Yao's mouth.

Princess An Guo signaled her personal palace maid, Huo Xiang, who walked up to Lan Jing and lifted her hand up. She carefully examined the marks on the hand before returning to Princess An's side. She bent down and whispered something into Lan Jing's ear.

Princess An Guo nodded. ”Your majesty, the mark on this palace maid's wrist is very special. The center of the butterfly's wings is hollowed out, and if you look closely, you'll see the character 'birthday'.”

Everyone looked and indeed, a word 'birthday' faintly appeared on the burn wound on this palace maid's wrist.

When Feng Tang Yao heard Princess An's words, his entire body shivered, and his face turned even paler.

”This princess has some impression of a butterfly hairpin with the word 'longevity' …” Princess An's dignified gaze slowly fell upon Feng Ziyao as she spoke. ”The empress dowager once received two butterfly hairpins. At that time, she gave one to me and the other to Thirteen.”
