Song Nan Mo was surprised before his expression changed. After a few seconds, he said, âI forgotâ¦â¦â
Luo Qing Chen said in an understanding voice after hearing this, âThen Iâll keep Sir Songâs jade pendant with me for now. When sir brings the jade pendants for me to choose from, Iâll return it.â
After a while, he looked away a bit and softly said, âAlright.â
Righteous Declaration Palace.
As soon as Luo Qing Chen came in, Xiang Cao stopped her. She looked at her with a domineering look and said, âYouâre being lazy right after entering the Righteous Declaration Palace, do you think this place is a charity!â
Luo Qing Chen coldly narrowed her eyes to look at her, âI was about to report to Concubine Rou and you blocked me. Do you think that you are the master of this Righteous Declaration Palace?â
âYouâ¦â¦â Xiang Cao couldnât fight back. Her face turned red and she pointed at Luo Qing Chenâs face as she said, âDonât slander people, I never said any of that.â
âI donât know if youâve said it or not.â Luo Qing Chen said with a cold smile, âBut your ability to turn right to wrong really is unparalleled.â
âIs Qing Chen back?â As soon as Concubine Rou called her name, Xiang Caoâs expression became even worse.
The maid Su Su quickly came out and said, âQing Chen, the concubine wants to see you.â
âUnderstood.â Luo Qing Chen raised her right hand and used a bit of force to push the hand that Xiang Cao was holding her with, âMove aside.â
Xiang Cao glared at her before stomping her foot, âJust you wait, I will tell the concubine about your laziness.â
She wanted to follow Luo Qing Chen in to see Concubine Rou when she said this, but Su Su actually stopped her.
âSu Su, what are you doing? Do you even want to step over me?â
âNoâ¦â¦â Su Su timidly took a step back before hesitantly saying, âThe concubine said that Qing Chen should go in alone.â
Xiang Cao was shocked as she said in disbelief, âWhat?â
In the Righteous Declaration Palace, she was Concubine Rouâs favourite. No matter how bad her temper was, Concubine Rou had never punished her.
It was because of this that she felt very relaxed doing certain things.
âBig sister Xiang Caoâ¦â¦This is the concubineâs orders.â Su Su said in a low voice, âThis servant doesnât dare go against themâ¦â¦â
âZe, ze, ze.â Luo Qing Chen looked at Xiang Cao who had a face filled with hate and revealed a faint cold smile.
She didnât say another word, but in the battle of gazes, she had already won.
The inner room.
Luo Qing Chen said with a bow, âThis servant greets Concubine Rou.â
âNo need.â Concubine Rou shook her head and said, âJust act like them.â
âYes, concubine.â
Concubine Rou gave a slight nod before looking into her eyes to ask, âYou went to the doctorâs yard with Nan Mo this morning, right?â
âYes, concubine.â Luo Qing Chenâs expression changed slightly as she said, âThere has been some progress with the investigation that the concubine has asked for.â
âThatâs good.â Concubine Rou slightly knitted her brows, âYou and Nan Moâ¦â¦â
âAlthough this servant is already a maid of the Righteous Declaration Palace, naturally it isnât easy for this servant to access the doctor yardâs records.â Luo Qing Chen said in a low voice, âBesides, beating the grass will scare the snakes.â
âYou mean that Feng Zhi was reallyâ¦â¦killedâ¦â¦by someoneâ¦â¦â Concubine Rouâs eyes turned red when she heard this.
Why was she so weak? She couldnât protect her child and even let him be killed by someone in her own palaceâ¦â¦
âIt should be like this.â Luo Qing Chen honestly said, âBut the investigation isnât complete yet and thereâs no evidence pointing to a single person.â
