Chapter 367 Means
Jinse's voice was really low and weak.

But even so, the two women in the house heard it. The cross-faced woman and the hanging-eyed woman looked at each other, and the latter immediately approached Jinse with a sullen face.

"It seems that the girl has not suffered enough, and the old slave is offended!"

He said he was offended, but his hand movements were not polite at all. He held an embroidery needle, picked up one of Jinse's fingers, and thrust it in with a brush.

Jinse shivered in pain.

But he couldn't scream, he just bit his lip and remained a ninja.

Seeing her like this, the Diaoyan woman was obviously not satisfied, so she pulled out the needle again and pointed it at Jinse's other finger.

Just as the old lady was about to take action, the closed door was knocked twice from the outside.

The old-eyed old woman paused, then looked back at the cross-faced old woman. The cross-faced old woman thought about it, walked behind the door, and asked in a low voice, "Who?"

"It's me, grandma, open the door."

Hearing the familiar voice, the cross-faced woman reached out and opened the door. When she looked up, she saw Shuixiu from Feng Zhaogong standing at the door.

The cross-faced woman suddenly smiled flatteringly: "Why is the girl suddenly in trouble? If you need anything, just ask the people below to pass the message!".

"Of course I have something to do when I come here!"

Shui Xiu said, and glanced inside the room. The light inside was not very bright, and she couldn't see clearly. She only took a few vague glances.

Naturally, she didn't want to come to a place like this, but she didn't feel comfortable asking the people below to deliver the message, so she had to go there by herself.

Not wanting to stay too long, Shui Xiu spoke very directly.

She asked coldly: "The ladies have been interrogating me for so long, but she has already confessed?"

As soon as she said this, the cross-faced old woman suddenly turned bitter and said angrily: "This girl has a hard bone... Minions...".

Does this mean that the other party has not surrendered yet?
Shui Xiu frowned and looked at the cross-faced old lady unhappily: "It seems that the old lady is too considerate and doesn't put in a lot of effort. How can I reply to the master when the old ladies do things like this?"

The cross-faced woman hurriedly bowed her hands and bowed: "I know my mistake, girl, please don't be angry, we will pry her mouth open. Master, I hope the girl can give you a nice word."

Those who did these things were the lowest-ranking palace servants, and Shui Xiu was too lazy to argue with them.

"No matter what, we must complete the tasks assigned by the master as soon as possible. This time, a lot of effort will be wasted. If the chain slips up here, you will understand the consequences!"

As soon as he said this, both the cross-faced woman and the hanging-eyed woman turned pale.

He quickly promised: "Understand, understand, we won't dare to delay things.".

With such an attitude, Shui Xiu felt satisfied and looked inside again.

"That's all, don't delay things, hurry up!".

Shui Xiu said a word and turned around to leave.

She really didn't want to stay in this place for a moment longer, and looking at the state of the person inside, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to last much longer.

The cross-faced woman and the hanging-eyed woman respectfully sent Shuixiu away, then immediately fell down with a smile on their face, and slammed the door with a bang...

The sound was so loud that Shui Xiu, who had already left, heard the lingering sound.

She ignored him and just walked back to Fengzhao Palace with a calm expression. On the way, she was able to go to the imperial dining room and get two of Empress Li's favorite snacks.

Halfway through, she met the little palace maid who came out of Fengzhao Palace to look for her.

When the little palace maid saw Shui Xiu, a smile suddenly appeared on her anxious face: "Sister Shui Xiu, the empress is looking for trouble and wants you to come back soon!".

Shui Xiu nodded: "I know!".He handed the food box to the little palace maid.

After returning to Fengzhao Palace, Shui Xiu took the food box from the little palace maid's hand and took it into the palace gate.

In the main hall, Queen Li was leaning on the back seat, resting her temples with her elbows, and her slightly furrowed brows showed that she was not in a good mood at the moment.

Shui Xiu looked up after entering the door and walked in gently.

"My servant stopped by the dining room and there happened to be the golden silk cakes that the queen likes to eat, so I brought them back. The ones just came out of the pot are still hot. Would you like some, the queen?"

As Shui Xiu spoke, he opened the food box and took out a plate of chrysanthemum-shaped golden silk cakes and a plate of peony-shaped yam cakes.

Queen Li opened her eyes and took a look.

This morning, Eunuch Yang and the imperial concubine were so angry that Queen Li really didn't eat much in the morning.

Now that I saw what I usually like to eat, I finally had a little appetite, so I nodded: "Since you brought it, let's try it!".

Shui Xiu smiled, placed two plates of snacks on the small coffee table next to her, took the hot handkerchief sent by the little palace maid, and handed it to Queen Li.

Queen Li wiped her hands, reached for a piece of golden silk cake and started eating it.

After eating a piece of pastry, Queen Li's expression softened slightly. She picked up another piece and asked casually: "Did you go there to see it early in the morning? How is it? Is everything done there?"

Shui Xiu was silent for a while.

Empress Li took away the pastry she was about to put in her mouth. She frowned and looked at Shui Xiu.

"Why, it's been so long and you still haven't been able to open your mouth?"

Shui Xiu nodded silently. Seeing that Queen Li looked bad, she hurriedly said: "The servants have already given instructions, let them hurry up...".

Queen Li threw half of the pastry in her hand back into the plate.

The rest of Shui Xiu's words were swallowed back in her throat. She paused and then said: "They didn't do anything half-heartedly. I just saw that they used a lot of methods."

only……

It's just that the other party is a tough nut, and they tried their best, but they didn't take it off for a while.

But Queen Li didn't care about the process. She only cared about whether she could get the results she wanted.

She frowned and said, "The Emperor Zhao Palace has received the news. The emperor sent Eunuch Yang here early in the morning."

Shui Xiu was stunned. She came back in a hurry to see Queen Li, and she didn't have time to ask these things.

She asked doubtfully: "Well, how come Di Zhao Palace got the news so quickly?"

Eunuch Yang came early in the morning. The emperor had just left the court, right?In other words, the emperor got the news from Hui Di Zhao Palace?
It stands to reason that this is not the case.

Shui Xiu knew that Jinse had some status in Dizhao Palace, but she couldn't believe that if she didn't go on duty early in the morning, someone from Dizhao Palace would immediately check if something happened to her, right?
Maybe they are just lazy and are late?

But Eunuch Yang came to Fengzhao Palace early in the morning, which means that the other party clearly knew that something happened to Jinse, and it was related to the harem.

Empress Li was very unhappy and asked coldly: "The people who went to do things yesterday didn't do things smoothly?"

Shui Xiu thought for a moment and shook his head: "I asked Grandma Hai to take the people there in person. Grandma Hai rarely does anything inappropriate when doing things, and she has been beaten everywhere afterwards, so it should not be noticed by others. ".

Queen Li was silent.

Shui Xiu glanced at Empress Li, hesitated, and asked: "Mother, Eunuch Yang is here, but has he come directly to Fengzhao Palace to ask for someone?".
