Fu Niangniang
No, she had to go back immediately and pass the message back quickly... The girl turned around abruptly, shouted softly "Go!", and strode towards the closed palace gate.
The maid behind was stunned for a moment, then immediately followed after realizing what was happening, sighing, "I've already said this before. It's not that I don't care or want to be perfunctory. I've always done things..."
"Boom boom boom, boom boom boom—"
Suddenly, a large number of running footsteps were heard outside the hall, coming from far away at a very fast speed.
"Who's in there? Who's in there?!!"
The roar suddenly exploded outside the wall.
The pupils of the two people in the hall shrank.
"What should we do?" The maid was suddenly panicked. She didn't even bother to cover herself with a handkerchief and reached out to grab the girl's arm. "Why is there someone coming? What should we do..."
The girl turned her head anxiously back and forth, her eyes searching for something in the dim light.
Suddenly, her eyes fell on the hollow window frame at the side and rear.
"Don't rush into this hasty act!" The maid suddenly understood and tightened her grip on her arm. "If you go out now, they'll catch you!"
The girl's face was full of anxiety. She ignored her and just turned her head frantically, searching in the hall.
"Bang!!!"
The heavy door was suddenly smashed open.
The cold wind howled, the scene in front of me became bright, and the darkness around me suddenly faded away rapidly.
Lamps of flame, each one an extremely bright orange-red, were held in the hands of countless figures, gathering in front.
Inside the hall, the two of them froze in place for an instant.
“Who are you?!”
A man in front roared, "A spy from the Yuan Kingdom!!"
“Swish--”
A large group of people rushed into the hall, holding swords and knives, and surrounded the two people in the hall in an instant.
The maid looked at the panicked girl next to her, gritted her teeth, threw away her handkerchief, and bent her knees.
"thump!"
The girl instantly knelt on the ground.
The palace maid next to her suddenly widened her eyes and knelt on the ground with a plop.
"My lord, I am innocent. Please spare my life!" The girl burst into tears instantly and kowtowed several times.
"I am not a spy, I am not a spy—"
The girl cried, crawling forward with her hands and feet, stretching out her arms, and frantically trying to grab the feet of the guard in front of her, "I am innocent, I just..."
“Clatter—”
"Ding, ding, ding, ding."
As she moved, large pieces of gold and silver jewelry fell out of her sleeves and hit the ground with a series of crisp sounds.
The eyes of the palace maid next to her suddenly widened even more.
The girl who was crying loudly looked down and her hands stretched forward turned instantly.
She screamed and subconsciously bent down, with her arms forming a circle, hugging the large object on the ground.
After a pause, she seemed to suddenly remember something, her body shook violently, and she hurriedly pushed the objects on the ground away with her hands.
The girl suddenly cried and screamed: "Not a slave, not a slave——"
The maidservant beside her understood instantly, burst into tears, and kowtowed to the crowd in front of her:
"Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life. This servant has been possessed by a ghost. This servant will never dare to take anything again, never dare to take anything again—"
"Please spare my life, sir, please spare my life..."
The two men knelt on the ground, trembling, and kowtowed rapidly and heavily one after another, until their heads were broken and bleeding.
"Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life. I will never dare to take anything again, I will never dare to do that again next time..."
The two cried heartbreakingly.
While crying and kowtowing, they kept pushing the gold and silver objects on the ground outwards and into the darkness.
He looked as if he was trying to distance himself from these stolen goods.
In front, the leading guard looked at them coldly and shouted, "Capture them!"
Not moved at all.
All around, swords and sabers were approaching rapidly.
The girl suddenly screamed, as if she was terrified. She didn't even bother to kowtow, but ran around like a madman with her head in her hands, quickly approaching the guards in front.
The maiden lagged behind, screaming in terror one after another, and she ran around frantically, dodging the swords and knives that were coming at her.
"My Lord—!" the girl screamed shrilly. "Even if your servants are dishonest, they still have to wait for the Queen's will. The harem is not under your control. You cannot kill us at will!"
The maid echoed the scream:
"The Queen, the Queen will not let you go. The Queen is still waiting for us! We want to see the Queen. We are the Queen's people in life and her ghosts in death. We want to see the Queen—"
"This is His Majesty's palace, the harem where the ladies live. How dare you act recklessly and kill people at will in the palace!!!"
The sound of breaking air suddenly stopped, and countless cold swords hung above the two men's heads, vibrating and making buzzing sounds.
Under the swords, the two hugged each other, terrified and crying.
The maidservant whimpered, "I was possessed by a devil and set my sights on the valuables here. Your Majesty will punish me and scold me, but I dare not complain at all.
"But there is one thing I cannot do. I cannot be falsely accused and slandered as a spy and die. I cannot let Her Majesty suffer injustice!"
Swords were sheathed, but the guards still surrounded them, standing there, motionless.
In front, the leading guard suddenly sneered.
A person walked over quietly, raised his hand and presented something.
The two people who fell to the ground opened their red, swollen and tearful eyes and looked at each other, their hearts skipping a beat.
——It was the wet handkerchief that I had just dropped.
The leading guard glanced at the dusty wet handkerchief beside him, but did not reach out to take it. Instead, he turned to look at the two people in front of him and said in a condescending and cold voice:
"It seems like this was premeditated. You...
“How can I prove my innocence?”
The swords of death are in their hands, so what they ask is—
How do you prove your innocence?
Let's see how you try your best to prevent this bloody sword from falling.
The palace maid's pupils trembled violently, and her hand slowly grasped the arm of the girl next to her, her ten fingers holding tightly, making a "clacking" sound.
Tears welled up in her red and swollen eyes. She was at a loss and stammered, unable to speak.
Beside her, the young girl ignored the pain in her arm and kowtowed several times, crying pleadingly to the people in front of her:
"I have become greedy and have turned my attention to these items in the palace, but I am really not a spy—"
She suddenly screamed shrilly, threw herself forward, and then fell to the ground helplessly, as if she had been frightened mad, crying and screaming:
"I want to see the Queen, I want to see the Queen!!!"
The maid raised her hand and slapped herself several times, kowtowed, and shrilly said: "This slave will never dare to steal again, this slave will never dare to steal again - Madam, spare my life -"
"Good job, you guys!!!"
An angry female voice suddenly rang out from the distance.
A gorgeously dressed woman suddenly pushed aside the heavy shadows and rushed into the encirclement. She raised her hand in anger and slapped each of them, saying angrily:
"I was wondering why things kept disappearing from my palace. Turns out it was you two sluts who stole them!"
She was so angry that she was shaking all over. She reached out and grabbed their hair, "Go! I'm going to chop off both of your claws today!!"
The two people huddled together as if they dared not argue, raised their hands to cover their swollen cheeks and cried.
They staggered and were dragged away by the woman. They could only cry and sob: "I was wrong, I was wrong. I will never dare to do it again..."
brush--
A dark crowd of figures blocked their way.
Seeing this, the well-dressed woman became even more angry and shrilly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you stop me?!"
The screams at close range made the guards frown.
Then, he lowered his head and explained in a gentle voice, "Madam Fu, these two people have trespassed into the forbidden area and their behavior is suspicious. We need to interrogate them thoroughly..."
"Didn't they say they were here to steal?!"
Fu Niangniang was furious. She raised her finger and pointed at him, shouting, "Isn't it my place to deal with the people in this palace?! Who do you think you are? How dare you stop me from dealing with these two slaves?!"
"No, it's..." The guard's face turned grim as he stepped back to avoid the nails that were about to poke his eyes. "They trespassed into the forbidden area. During the war between Lin and Yuan, the people who came to the forbidden area were most likely..."
"They only dare to steal things in this forbidden area!" Empress Fu said "Pooh" viciously, pointed her finger at him and followed him forward.
"You usually sneak around this palace and only take small things, but now you've come straight in and taken away a whole bunch of stuff?!"
As she spoke, Empress Fu was so angry that her eyes almost spitted fire. She turned around and slapped the two people behind her, grabbed their hair, and strode forward.
The guards hurriedly led their men to surround her, and were forced to retreat step by step by her. They did not dare to stop them forcefully. "Madam Fu, please don't do this. These two people are truly suspicious. Please don't interfere with my interrogation..."
"How did I hinder you? Did I also hinder you by punishing the people in this palace?!"
Empress Fu was furious and started yelling like crazy, "You want to punish me, right?! Right?! I won't listen to you, I only listen to His Majesty. Let His Majesty come, let His Majesty come and punish me!!"
"No, I dare not..." The guard suddenly panicked and tried to explain in a scrambled manner.
Empress Fu shouted angrily, "I only obey Your Majesty," stretched out her hand and pushed them away, then dragged the two people behind her and strode out.
Ignoring the people chasing after her, Empress Fu shouted, "I don't obey your orders, I only obey His Majesty." Without even looking back, she walked away angrily.
At the back, the guards had no choice but to stop.
The leading guard's face turned blue and red constantly.
Crazy woman!
It's impossible to communicate with this kind of unreasonable lunatic!
"Sir, should we report to His Majesty?" someone nearby asked cautiously in a low voice.
The leading guard glared at him, suppressing his anger and saying unhappily, "What are you reporting? If you don't consider your own worth, will His Majesty pay any attention to you or Empress Fu?!"
The person next to him immediately lowered his head and kept silent.
"Everyone, behave yourself. Don't let yourself get into trouble!" The leading guard glared at the people behind him fiercely and waved his hand, "Go!"
…………
"Bang!"
The palace gates were slammed shut.
The bruised girl breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the equally bruised maid next to her, and sighed, "Fortunately, you managed to get help in time."
The maid was startled, and also looked at her, saying blankly: "No, it's not you...? I didn't expect that Lady Fu was also one of ours..."
Said.
ah?
The two looked at each other, and suddenly felt an ominous premonition in their hearts.
For a long time, they twisted their necks stiffly, paused, and looked at the woman in front of them.
