An Eight-year-old Princess

Chapter 1127 Absurd Reasons

The servant of the Shangqin Bureau answered first, "Your majesty, it's because the maid who lives with

me in the same room suddenly has a stomachache. I reported it to the steward. The steward gave me

a token and asked me to go to the Imperial Hospital to ask to get some medicine."

"It's just that I don't have a good sense of direction, and I seldom walk in the palace. It's ok in daytime,

but it's too dark at night, so I lost my way for a while. I saw the Rose Finch pavilion was on a high

terrain, so I thought I could where the Imperial Hospital was from there, but I was caught and brought

here."

The maid kowtowed to Yun Shang again. "I heard that your majesty is a kind-hearted person. Please

send someone to the imperial hospital to get some medicine for abdominal pain. I saw that the maid in

my room had a serious abdominal pain and was almost delirious with pain. I was worried that

something might happen..."

Yun Shang smiled. That was an interesting reason.

It was too dark at night, so she climbed up to see the direction?

How could see anything clearly at night even if she climbed to a high position?

Yun Shang thought to herself, but she didn't show it on her face. "Really? You are kind-hearted. Don't

worry. I will call the imperial physician to the Shangqin Bureau. "

The maid seemed to be surprised and happy. She hurriedly thanked Yun Shang, "Thank you, your

majesty. Thank you very much."

Yun Shang chuckled and took a meaningful look at the servant. Then she turned to another servant

and asked, "What about you? And why did you climb to the Moon Tower in the middle of the night? "

The maid bit her lip and looked a little embarrassed. Hearing Yun Shang's question, she didn't say

anything for a long time.

Yun Shang raised her eyebrows, "What's wrong? You can't answer me? "

The servant shook his head in a hurry and said hesitantly, "I'm the cleaner in the Imperial Library. When

there is no one in the library, I can also read the books in it secretly. Yesterday, I noticed a book in the

daytime, and some stories in it were very interesting. I liked it very much. So I hid in the library to read

it. But I hadn't finished it when the light was turned off."

"At that time, I was just reading the most wonderful part, I really wanted to know what was going on

later, so I quietly took the book out and wanted to find a place with light to read it. But I was afraid of

being discovered. Seeing that there was no guard and no other people in the Moon Tower, and that

there were several lanterns there, I sneaked up." Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.

The servant paused for a moment and then continued, "In fact, I have done such a thing before. The

steward of the library also found me and scolded me. But after that, the steward found that it was

useless to scold me. I didn't make any big trouble, so he just ignored me."

"Oh?" Yun Shang wondered, "What kind of book makes you so obsessed with?"

The servant lowered her eyes and took out a book from her sleeve.

Qian Liu took the book and presented it to Yun Shang.

Yun Shang took a look and saw the name on the cover of the book.

"What is this book about?"

The servant lowered her eyes and replied, "It's just some stories about ghosts. Before the night break, I

was reading the ninth story. It's about an old man who stayed overnight in a temple in the mountain. At

night, he heard a wind whistling like a ghost crying, and he heard the gate being smashed. He thought

that the monk hadn't closed the door well. However, the wind was getting closer and closer to his room,

and then his room was blown open by the wind. "

"Before he came to his senses, he heard the sound that seemed to be approaching his bedroom. Then

he heard strange footsteps, as if someone had entered the room and were coming towards him step by

step..."

"When I was reading this part, the lights in the library was turned off."

Yun Shang smiled, "It's indeed fascinating."

Then she restrained her smile and said, "But no matter what the reason is, you've broken the rules as

you idled in the palace at night. According to the rules, you'll be flog ten times as a warning to others.

Do you two have any objection? "

The two maids' faces darkened. After a while, they gritted their teeth and said, "No... No. "

Yun Shang nodded, "Take them away and deal with them according to the palace rules."

The guards answered. Yun Shang didn't go to the main hall until she saw the maids were taken down.

Qian Liu followed behind Yun Shang with a puzzled look on her face. "Your majesty, you obviously

suspect that these two servants are spying on the situation of our Weiyang Palace. Perhaps they have

something to do with the person behind the plot. Why did you let them go so easily?"

Yun Shang stopped and looked at the lantern under the eaves indifferently. "Do you think their reasons

convincible?"

"It sounds ridiculous." Qian Liu said without hesitation.

Yun Shang smiled and nodded, "As you said, their words sounded ridiculous. One said that she was

lost, so she climbed up to tell the direction. The other said she was obsessed with reading and went to

read under light. "

"But it sounds ridiculous. If I go to investigate, I still can't find anything. We will only find that her

roommate must have suffered a stomachache and she did report it to the director of the Shangqin

Bureau and was asked to go to the Imperial Hospital for some medicine.

"The steward of the Imperial Library will definitely tell that the maid who was arrested tonight is indeed

a bookworm. She was found and reprimanded for several times while reading under the light."

"Now that the matter has come to this, it is difficult to continue investigating. What else should I

investigate? To find out whom they contacted every day? The real instigator would not contact them

easily. Besides, the two of them are just ordinary servants. I'm afraid that very few people will notice

what they have done, who they have been in touch with, and if there is anything unusual with them. "

After a long silence, Qian Liu frowned and said, "How about we send someone to keep an eye on them

after we let go of them? Or we can force them to confess? "

"That's more unnecessary." Yun Shang chuckled, "As they've been found by me, I'm afraid that these

two will be abandoned."

"As for extorting confessions under harsh torture, you can have a try. But I'm afraid that the two of them

don't know anything at all. I'm afraid that they even have never seen the one who has contacted them.

"

"Your majesty, then..." Qian Liu frowned.

Yun Shang certainly knew what she wanted to ask. She raised her eyebrows and said, "I caught them

and interrogated them myself just to tell the person behind the scene that I attach great importance to

this matter, because there are indeed secrets in Weiyang Palace tonight, and there are secrets that I

want to carefully hide from others. That's all... "
