Chapter 1005: I Didn’t Do Anything

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The empress was already vexed as she sat in the hall. Hearing the little eunuch’s noisy voice, she was so angry that impatience rose in her eyes. “Insolent b*stard, do you even know how to speak? I’m very good, you dejected thing actually dare to curse me?!”

The young eunuch’s legs gave way and he fell to his knees with a thud. He kept kowtowing in fear, “Empress, something bad has happened. Lady Jingyi has been captured by the prince regent’s men!”

The empress was so frightened that she suddenly stood up from her seat. “Nonsense! Why did they capture Jingyi?!”

The young eunuch was also frightened by the empress’ stern expression. He shrunk his neck and said fearfully, “This servant does not know either. It’s just that Miss Jingyi is your trusted aide, Your Highness. The reason why the Prince Regent took her away is definitely for you..”

The empress was so frightened that her soul was about to fly out of her body. She continued to shout in panic, “What nonsense are you saying? I didn’t do anything, I don’t know anything!”

The young eunuch looked at the empress’ terrified expression and did not believe the empress’ words at all.

If the empress really did not do anything, then why was she so afraid? From the looks of it, she was clearly hiding something.

However, the young eunuch did not gloat. He was also a member of the Fengyi Palace and naturally did not want anything to happen to the empress. “Empress, you have to think of a way.”

“What method can I have…” The empress’ legs gave way and she sat down heavily. She was mentally and physically exhausted, and she felt as if she had aged ten years.

The young eunuch saw that the empress was in a mess and hurriedly reminded her, “Empress, don’t be anxious. See if you want this servant to leave the palace and find the Crown Prince for help…?”

“No, you can’t.” Before the young eunuch could finish speaking, the empress had already stopped him with a stern expression. She said with a cold expression, “At such a critical time, we can’t implicate the crown prince! Go and find out what exactly is going on. If you find out anything, come and report to me immediately! ”

The young eunuch looked up at the empress. Seeing that the empress was very insistent, he could only obediently leave.

The empress sat in her seat and kept taking deep breaths to persuade herself not to panic. “In any case, everything was done by Jingyi. I can remove herself and at that time, it will not implicate my son!”

“The empress’ words are really naive. The eldest palace maid under the empress poisoned the emperor, so others would naturally think that this matter was personally planned by the empress. Even if the empress wants to get rid of yourself, it would be useless.” At this moment, a sinister laugh suddenly sounded in the air. The empress was shocked and looked nervously at the source of the sound.

An old woman wearing a gray hemp robe and a thick hat slowly walked out of the inner hall, holding a walking stick in her hand. Her walking stick hit the ground as she walked.

Even through the gray robe, the empress could see that the old woman’s figure was deformed. Her entire back was arched into the shape of a bowstring, making her appear particularly short and strange.

The empress looked around. There was no one else around. The old woman’s sudden appearance was extremely abrupt. “Who are you? Who let you in?”

“Hehehe, it’s not important who this old woman is. What’s important is that this old woman’s name is Xiangyun, and I was specially sent by His Highness the Crown Prince to serve the empress.” Nanny Xiangyun had already reached out her hand as she spoke, slowly approaching the empress..
