Seeing this, the eldest lady suddenly turned her anger towards the maid, and spoke so "sadly", as if the eldest lady herself was the one betrayed by the maid.

Luo Xuening smiled foolishly in her heart. The eldest lady's trick really hasn't changed.

Whenever she encountered a problem, she would push it onto other people.

Being a maid to the First Lady and Luo Xueyao is also very miserable.

Luo Xue Ning looked at the eldest lady coldly, seeing the hot tears in her eyes slowly flowing down her cheeks, and felt a wave of contempt in her heart.

Now, when the eldest lady moved her eyes, she knew that she was going to have bad intentions again.

The maid who was named was stiff all over. She knelt before the prince, covered her face and looked at the lady innocently with her mouth wide open.

"Madam, I didn't do anything. I just followed your instructions."

"Shut up."

The eldest lady shouted angrily, her eyes darkened, and the murderous intent in her eyes flashed away, but it made the maid lower her head timidly immediately. She didn't dare to speak anymore, but just shook her head timidly, her body trembling with fear.

"You little girl, you dare to lie in front of the Empress in the palace. If you don't tell the truth today, I will report it to the Empress and kill your whole family."

The eldest lady lowered her voice, and only the two of them could hear what she said. However, even so, everyone could clearly feel that the eldest lady was threatening the maid.

The people present were not fools. They knew exactly how the crime was committed, but no one would speak about it openly.

Who wants to offend others? Who wants to be the first to uphold justice?

Those who can get to this position are all very smart. Which one of them doesn't know the principle of self-preservation?

As soon as these words came out, the maidservant was so scared that she burst into tears, and as if she had regained strength, she knelt in front of Madam Lai.

"Madam, I know I was wrong. Please save me and my family."

The maidservant cried and reached out to grab the eldest lady's back. Her loud crying made the eldest lady so angry that her face turned pale, and even her pupils turned white.

How could she have deceived herself into finding such a disgusting maid and said what she had just said so brazenly? This was clearly a trap to get herself killed.

Luo Xue Ning looked at the eldest lady's face which turned pale and blue, and she couldn't help laughing.

Who taught this maid to cheat her master so blatantly?

This time, the Lady's secret threat had turned into a public threat in front of the Empress.

If you haven't really committed a crime, why would you threaten others in this way?

The eldest lady was helpless and could only pull her feet out of the maid's hands and sit on the ground in a panic, feeling very embarrassed under the gazes of everyone.

Helplessly, she could only pull away from the maid's hand and said in a low voice: "Don't beg me anymore. If you don't want to be beheaded, you know how to do this."

"You know what to say."

The eldest lady's eyes were stern. She kicked the maid hard and her eyes suddenly became fierce.

The maid was kicked by the lady and fell straight to the ground. Her expression made the lady glare with anger.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

The eldest lady was in a very depressed mood at this moment, not only because their carefully planned plan was abruptly overturned by Luo Xuening, but also because she had lost all face today.

She lost all face in front of so many ladies and noble ladies, even the empress and concubines.

Even today, they will not be punished, but their reputation has been ruined because of what happened today.

Staring at the maid fiercely, the eldest lady didn't care about anything else, not even those ladies who were secretly sneering at her and Luo Xueyao behind their backs.

"Hurry up."

The eldest lady lowered her voice and called out again. Ya Han was stunned and repeated it to the empress and everyone else in a stiff tone, as if she was reciting something.

"Your Majesty, it was me who was responsible for the secret medicine used by the palace. These have nothing to do with my young lady and my wife. Please, Your Majesty, grant me death. I know I was wrong, but you don't admit your guilt."

This is what the eldest lady did when she abandoned the marshal. As long as the maid admitted that she did it, no one else could expose her in person.

She admitted what happened today.

However, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise, they would be so absorbed in preparing for the Qixi Festival banquet, but in the end, the only thing left on people's minds is the secret use of the palace's secret medicine.

The queen's eyes always fell coldly on the eldest lady. Fortunately, the maid finally admitted that she did it.

Although the eldest lady had done something extremely damaging in this matter, Huang Jiu could only handle it with caution. Since they were all members of the Gu family, she could only help the eldest lady and Luo Xueyao to suppress the matter.

As for how the matter would be handled in the end, that was not something she had to think about.

The Queen narrowed her eyes and looked at the eldest lady with displeasure. Forget it, let them go this time.

The queen did not want this matter to become a topic of discussion, so she immediately made a decision: "Come here, drag this maid away and hand her over to the Dali Temple for handling. The eldest daughter of the Luo family was harmed by a villain and is not feeling well. Come here, send the eldest daughter and Mrs. Luo out of the palace."

Luo Xueyao's face turned pale. Why was she being sent back from this Qixi Festival banquet?

She had clearly prepared a lot, but she hadn't seen her cousin yet. She couldn't. She couldn't go back.

If she was sent back by the Empress at the Qixi Festival banquet, how would she be able to stay in the palace in the future? She didn't want that.

Luo Xueyao gritted her teeth and was about to kneel in front of the empress, but was hugged by the eldest lady.

"Yao'er, don't move rashly, just listen to me."

The queen naturally understood what was going on. She was warning both mother and daughter.

If she doesn't behave herself, how can the Queen ever look at Yao'er differently again?

At this time, no matter how reluctant they are, they have to leave with a clear conscience.

The eldest lady hugged Luo Xueyao. Seeing the disappointment on Luo Xueyao's face, a look of helplessness flashed in her eyes.

He held Luo Xueyao's hand, not allowing her to make any rash moves again. Then, he knelt in front of the empress and thanked her profusely.

"Your Majesty, Yao'er and I are indeed under the influence of drugs. We are restless and it is not appropriate for us to stay in the palace any longer. We will disturb everyone. Thank you, Your Majesty. I will take Yao'er home now."

Gritting her teeth and taking a deep breath, the eldest lady glared angrily at the uncooperative Luo Xueyao.

"Walk."

At this moment, the eldest lady could only grit her teeth and utter one word: They had really miscalculated today, and they deserved the fate they had suffered.

"mother?"

Luo Xueyao was reluctant to leave. She hadn't met her cousin yet. What would she do if another woman caught her cousin's eye at the Qixi Festival banquet?

"Walk?"

The eldest lady increased her strength, pulled Luo Xueyao, and dragged her out of the hall.

He lowered his eyes and couldn't help but sigh.

What a bad idea.
