Chapter 204 Palace Maid
The leading palace maid walked forward with a flattering look on her face. He looked at Liu Shiqi curiously and asked.
"How could a sister of your status come to such a remote courtyard like ours?"
"It's Princess Zanhua. Do you have any instructions for us?"
She glanced at the little palace maid lying on the ground, unable to get up for a long time, with a hint of meaning.
Liu Shiqi narrowed his eyes.
[It seems that Princess Zanhua knows the existence of this little palace maid. Maybe someone had been sent to take care of it before. 】
[Could it be that she is really a woman disguised as a man? Is he Concubine Li’s son? 】
Zhuang Yan, who had been hiding, also looked at the palace maid on the ground with caution.
Seeing him lying motionless on the ground, he wanted to rush over and pick up the child.
He was afraid that the child would die, and die in front of him.
Then how is he going to explain this to Brother Miao?
Liu Shiqi suddenly chuckled, sat down, stared into the palace maid's eyes and said.
"Her Royal Highness did give instructions!"
"She said... people... can't die!"
"otherwise……"
"Everyone here...will be buried with him!"
Seven or eight palace maids trembled with fear and all knelt down.
The leading palace maid quickly kowtowed to Liu Shiqi and explained.
"I know!"
"I just wanted to teach her a lesson. I didn't mean to... take her life!"
The leading palace maid did not doubt what Liu Shiqi said, because she knew it in her heart.
This person really can't die.
If she died, not only would Princess Zanhua take their lives, but even the Emperor would kill them.
Today, they just beat her to death because they were so angry.
Thinking about it now, they all feel a chill down their spines.
Liu Shiqi nodded. Wave to the door.
Zhuang Yan also changed into the clothes of a palace maid from the Gaoli Kingdom.
There was no way, he really didn't have time to find the eunuchs' clothes here. I can only make do with it for now.
Zhuang Yan lowered his head, bent over and walked behind Liu Shiqi.
Because it was dark, he lowered his head again.
The palace maids didn't notice anything unusual.
Liu Shiqi pointed at the palace maid on the ground and said.
"Go and see how he is!"
Zhuang Yan nodded and walked over in small steps. Then quickly check on the little palace maid.
Then he turned around and nodded to Liu Shiqi.
Liu Shiqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
I hope everyone is okay.
She instructed Zhuang Yan again, "Then arrange for him to go down and have a rest!"
Zhuang Yan obediently picked up the little palace maid, entered the inner hall and closed the door.
Several palace maids watched and dared not make a sound.
Afraid that Liu Shiqi would blame them.
Liu Shiqi suddenly looked at them and smiled.
“Alright, alright!”
"I was just joking with you guys!"
"Everyone, get up!"
As Liu Shiqi spoke, she pulled up the leading palace maid and sat her next to her.
Seeing her like this, the others also breathed a sigh of relief and stood up and sat down.
Liu Shiqi poured wine for everyone.
"Sisters, don't worry too much. Her Royal Highness the Princess said that as long as the person is fine, it's fine!"
"You guys have worked so hard taking care of him, that's why Her Highness the Princess ordered me to come here!"
"Reward the sisters!"
Only then did they finally relax.
Liu Shiqi urged people to drink.
After a few drinks, the palace maids became more courageous.
Several palace maids started talking.
Liu Shiqi said, "The sisters are really hard-working!"
"I'm working in a place like this!"
The palace maids immediately began to complain.
"Isn't it? You are so lucky, my sister. You can eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks by the side of Princess Zanhua!"
"There are various benefits..."
"We are unlucky!"
"I have to watch that unpresentable thing during the day!"
"Nothing good ever happens every day!"
"And I still have to worry!"
Liu Shiqi rolled his eyes and said, "Oh, isn't it!"
"However, I have just entered the palace not long ago, I really don't know the identity of this little palace maid..."
"Why do the masters value her so much?"
"Could it be, there is some secret?"
At this time, Liu Shiqi actually wanted to find out some news about Concubine Li's son from these palace maids.
She was afraid that the little palace maid might not be Concubine Li's son. That would be troublesome.
So she needs to make preparations for both scenarios.
Moreover, she felt that these lower-level palace maids must be better informed.
Maybe I can get some information from them.
But I listened to Liu Shiqi's words.
Even though several palace maids had drunk some wine, they all shook their heads and said.
"She is a taboo in the palace. Sister advises you not to ask about her!"
"Even if we were asked, we couldn't tell!"
Liu Shiqi didn't expect that they were still so cautious even after drinking too much.
But she was not in a hurry.
She quietly took out a pill from her bosom and put it into the wine.
Pour wine for several palace maids again.
Drink for a while more.
Liu Shiqi asked the same question.
"What is the identity of that little palace maid just now?"
The leading palace maid said with a dazed look in her eyes.
"She is...Princess Yu'er's illegitimate daughter..."
After saying that, he fell asleep.
Liu Shiqi was stunned.
"daughter?"
Liu Shiqi asked the other palace maids who were not asleep, and they all gave the same answer.
After all the palace maids fell asleep on the table.
Liu Shiqi stood up and walked into the courtyard, to the door of the room that Zhuang Yan had just entered holding the little palace maid.
The room felt quiet at this moment. It's like no one is there.
Liu Shiqi pushed the door open suspiciously.
Then I discovered that Zhuang Yan and the thin palace maid were both standing on the ground, more than one meter apart.
Zhuang Yan's arm was still bleeding. He looked at the little palace maid anxiously.
The little palace maid held a knife in her hand and stared at Zhuang Yan fiercely.
Just like a newborn leopard cub. Very fierce and aggressive.
Liu Shiqi hurried over to check on Zhuang Yan's injuries.
"Brother Zhuang, are you okay?"
Zhuang Yan shook his head, "It's just a little cut, it's no big deal!"
Liu Shiqi examined him and found that it was indeed only a minor wound and there was no poison. Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief.
She gave him some simple medicine and bandaged him.
Then he raised his eyebrows and looked at the little palace maid.
When she saw the little palace maid's face clearly, she was surprised.
"This is so similar to the portrait of Concubine Li!"
"If you say it has nothing to do with Concubine Li, I won't believe it even if you kill me!"
Zhuang Yan nodded and said, "Yes, she does look a lot like Concubine Li!"
"So I'm sure he is the son of Miao Shouqing and Concubine Li!"
"She was just kept as a maid by the dog emperor Gao Liguo! He was probably afraid that when Concubine Li gained power, she would be sent to look for her!"
Liu Shiqi nodded, "Then why did he stab you?"
