"Quickly, quickly, put those things away!" the head eunuch ordered anxiously in a low voice.

"You idiot, hide the bottle behind the pillar, stuff the playing cards in your clothes, and you, wipe the grease from your mouth!"

"So clumsy! I really don't know how she even got into the palace in the first place!"

"You new eunuchs are the most difficult batch to manage in our household!" The head eunuch grumbled as he straightened his clothes and official hat, tugging at his wrinkled collar.

"Her Majesty the Empress has arrived!" A shrill eunuch's voice rang out.

"Your servants pay their respects to Your Majesty the Empress! May Your Majesty live a thousand years!" The eunuchs, their faces full of fawning smiles, knelt respectfully on the ground and kowtowed to the Empress.

Empress Zhaoyuan walked straight past the group of eunuchs kneeling on the ground. "Stop with the empty talk and go drag those two scoundrels out for me!"

"Yes, Your Majesty the Empress," the head eunuch said in a high-pitched voice, waving his hand.

The biggest event that has happened in the palace recently is the incident of the little princess being thrown into a well. The head eunuch is also a smart man, so he naturally knows how serious the matter is.

The eunuchs and palace maids were sent to the Department of Strict Punishment and were placed under strict guard, with constant attention to prevent them from committing suicide.

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of people dragged the palace maid and eunuch who had murdered the princess out of the prison cell.

"Beat them! Beat them to death!" Empress Zhaoyuan sat on a wooden stool, raised one foot and placed it on the stool, and gave the order.

"Your Majesty, spare me! This servant will never dare to do it again!" The palace maid kowtowed desperately, begging for mercy.

"Oh my god, again?"
