Empress is in the harem again

Chapter 256

In the tightly closed room, a suffocating breath spread in the air.

"I have nothing to say, do you want to tell me?"

Shen Xi kowtowed the sunflower seeds that got angry, and raised her legs in an ungraceful manner, her eyes did not look at Qiao Yin, who was kneeling still and dressed in a higher class than Gong'e.

She knelt on the ground, with a respectful expression at first, as if she hadn't done anything out of the ordinary.

Seeing that Shen Xi kept silent, the warm breath in the air seemed to beat her heart like a cool chill.

Looking at the charming girl in front of her, she couldn't figure it out.

When she asked the first sentence, there was panic in Qiaoyin's eyes, which disappeared in a flash.

"Yes, this servant is just going to report to the empress about the storehouse recently, it seems that some things are missing for no reason, and the servant is still investigating who dared to steal the empress's things, it's a leopard's guts."

Qiaoyin's tone suddenly calmed down, and nothing unusual could be heard.

Shen Xi propped his head, tapped his fingers on the glass cup, made a dull sound, and lazily repeated the important words, "Stealing?"

Qiaoyin lowered her head even lower, and replied in an unquestionable tone, "Yes, the servant will definitely find him out."

"Tsk, if you are such a slave who is disloyal to the master and has other ghosts, how would you deal with it?"

Shen Xi smiled softly, a little carelessly, with a sly look in his eyes.

Qiaoyin didn't think about the deep meaning of Shen Xi's words for a while, she just thought that Shen Xi couldn't find a way to deal with it.

She thought about it for a while, and then said honestly, "If I see it, I should be killed with a stick. Once I die, as long as there is one time, there will be a second time. People's greed does not stop."

"So you also know that if you are too greedy, you will lose your life. It seems that you are quite smart."

Qiaoyin seemed to hear a little bit of something else, facing the gaze of the people in the seat, she replied a little awkwardly, "Your Majesty, thank you."

Shen Xi twitched the corners of her lips, fixed her eyes on the courteous and well-mannered maid, and touched her cheek with the tip of her tongue.

A golden light flashed across Shen Xi's lips, and the cold light pursed.

"It's not necessary to praise the prize. After all, there is a saying that cleverness is misunderstood by cleverness. And most importantly, I don't like sticking to death. After all, the time for hiccups is too short. The price of betraying Bengong will be far more uncomfortable than death. .”

"What the lady said is."

A coolness gradually rose from the soles of Qiaoyin's feet. Even though she felt something was wrong, she still didn't have time to think about it, so she could only respond repeatedly.

In the next second, a sentence broke her defense.

Shen Xi asked lightly, "How does the Queen Mother treat you?"

"This servant has never been in contact with the Queen Mother, so I don't know why the Empress would ask such questions?"

Her hand on the ground curled up inadvertently, and her heart vibrated violently in her body.

The lowered eyes were full of shock and panic, and he rationally forced himself to calm down.

Shen Xi pursed her lips and evoked a kind smile, "Really?"

"It's a pity. At this time, I usually have to consciously tell the truth, because if I do it, it won't be easy to eat melon seeds."

Without giving Qiaoyin a chance to answer, Shen Xi continued.

His eyes seemed to ignore the clever voice in front of him, and his words were full of arrogance.

No one would think that such words would be spoken from a voice that is gentle and soft in the eyes of ordinary people.

Qiaoyin's expression gradually became a little restless, which seemed to be caused by too much panic.

"The status of a servant is low, how can I serve the queen mother."
