"Which palace do you belong to?"
Mo Shisheng's gaze fell on the palace servant, and she asked softly. Her voice was devoid of any emotion, yet it carried a subtle sense of pressure, making the palace servant feel as if she could hardly breathe.
The palace maid looked at Mo Shisheng, a question arising in her mind. The child clearly looked no more than three years old, but was that imposing aura something a child under three should possess?
"Your Highness, I am a palace maid from the Luanfeng Palace..."
Mo Shisheng had been staying in Qi Muxiao's palace, so she naturally remembered the faces of the palace servants. This palace servant dared not speak carelessly and had no choice but to tell the truth.
"The Phoenix Palace?"
Hearing the palace servant's words, Mo Shisheng narrowed her eyes slightly, "Luanfeng Palace has always been at odds with Wangyou Palace, why would you help the Imperial Concubine to complain to this princess? Do you want to die?"
Ming Beiya: "..."
Hearing Mo Shisheng's familiar words, the corner of his lips twitched slightly. So this wasn't a privilege reserved for him alone… Was she truly angry, hence saying such things to everyone?
"Your Highness, the Imperial Concubine is a kind person, so... so this servant..."
"Shut your mouth. I don't want to hear your clumsy lies. If you tell the truth quickly, I might consider letting you go."
Mo Shisheng's tone was so cold it was almost devoid of any human warmth, and his gaze was even colder, emanating from his eyes.
"This servant...this servant is telling the truth, please, Your Highness...ah!"
Before the palace maid could finish speaking, she was struck down by a heavy force and fell heavily to the ground. A cracking sound was heard, as if her sternum had broken.
He spat out a mouthful of blood, which instantly stained the silvery-white snow red.
"Princess... I'm telling the truth, please... uh..."
The palace maid coughed up blood, struggling to speak. As she repeated her words, Mo Shisheng suddenly appeared before her, her small, delicate hand gripping the maid's throat tightly. Fear flickered in the maid's eyes. "Princess...!"
"You know, if I wanted you dead, it would only take a word, but I have plenty of ways to make you wish you were dead."
Mo Shisheng's eyes were cold and indifferent. Her delicate and youthful face was as beautiful as an angel, but the words she spoke were icy and chilling.
The palace maid trembled with fear, "I..."
"If you think I can't keep my word, feel free to test my patience."
Before the palace servants could speak, Mo Shisheng continued.
"It's Her Majesty the Empress... She invited the Imperial Concubine to the Luanfeng Palace for a chat today, and then asked me to find a way to bring the Princess to the Luanfeng Palace..."
The palace maid seemed terrified of Mo Shisheng, but when Situ Xue was mentioned, her body trembled uncontrollably. "Princess, everything I said is true... Her Majesty the Empress also said that if I fail to accomplish my task, my entire family will be executed... I have no choice but to obey Her Majesty the Empress's orders..."
"..."
Upon hearing the truth from the palace maid, Mo Shisheng released his grip on her throat.
The palace maid's body went limp, and she collapsed to the ground, breathing heavily, as if she had survived a catastrophe.
Where does she want me to go?
Mo Shisheng glanced sideways at the palace servant and said, "Lead the way."
"Princess, this servant..."
"Too much nonsense? Or do you want to lose your life and, incidentally, kill your entire family?"
Seemingly finding the palace servants noisy, Mo Shisheng coldly said, "Lead the way."
