Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 198 Distrust

"Ma'am..."

There was a chill on Yue'er's back, she had difficulty swallowing, and she let out a trembling cry.

He wanted to say something but stopped talking, looking a little confused by Shen Xi's actions.

Shen Xi didn't talk nonsense to her, she crossed her legs, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips, "As long as you obediently do things for me in the future, this antidote will naturally be given to you on time every month."

Yue'er's kneeling legs moved two points towards Shen Xi's direction, her face turned pale, but she still said respectfully, "Your servant will be loyal to my master."

Even without the poison, she has remained faithful.

At least she has never done anything particularly unpleasant, but Shen Xi doesn't believe her.

In other words, you will not trust anyone, no matter how deep your feelings are, in the face of conflicts of interest, cheap ones are worthless.

Even in her world, she didn't think that the harem with intrigues and intrigues would be so simple.

She needs manpower to do things, so naturally she has to be careful.

Even though Rong Jinli already knew about it, judging by his appearance and the fact that he was still useful, he probably wouldn't expose it.

In fact, even if she was found out, she might be fine now.

Shen Xi is still a little confident in this point.

She squatted down and got very close to her, her eyes met, and there was a hint of fear in Yue'er's eyes.

Shen Xi smiled lightly, brushed the hair under the corner of her forehead, and said, "So you still have to tell Bengong, did you see Jingjing last night?"

A flash of consciousness suddenly flashed in Yue'er's mind, as if she understood what Shen Xi meant.

"No...no."

Mixed with a touch of tentative tone.

Shen Xi touched her cheek in satisfaction, and moved closer, "Be more to the point."

Yue'er could almost see that bright and beautiful little face very clearly, and still couldn't see a single blemish at close range.

The thick and long eyelashes were flicked twice, and the almond eyes shone faintly.

Even though she was a decent woman, she couldn't help swallowing her saliva when faced with such a face at close range.

He forgot the fear that Shen Xi had when he asked her to take the medicine just now, and his eyes were full of admiration.

Hearing that her sloppy words fell, she moved her lips a few times, and said firmly, "No."

Shen Xi rolled her eyes with a smile, stepped back a little, stood up, and looked down at her.

"It's fine if you don't have one, go out and watch, and let Taohong come in."

Facing her changing face, Yue'er was really a little frightened.

It even made her a little confused whether she was angry or happy.

Yue'er didn't have much time to think, she opened the door, and exchanged a glance with Tao Hong who was guarding outside.

Nodding each other goodbye, Tao Hong stepped in.

When she came in, Shen Xi was no longer there, and at some point ran to the orchid that had just grown new leaves.

She leaned slightly and saluted, "Master."

Shen Xi responded lightly, fingering the orchid leaves.

"Remember what I asked you to investigate a while ago?"

Tao Hong nodded her head, her eyes drooped, "Remember, Madam asked the servants to find out who Chun Yu had contacted in the palace."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly thought of something, and looked at Shen Xi in surprise.

Jingjing, isn't it one of the people that Chunyu has come into contact with a lot.

Shen Xi glanced at her expression from the corner of her eye, pursed her lips and smiled irresistibly, "I know why I asked you to investigate this matter?"

Tao Hong shook her head sincerely, all she knew was that since the empress had met the young master at that banquet, she had asked her to secretly investigate the people Chun Yu had come into contact with.

What happened, did not tell her in detail.
