Volume 1 ◆ The Palace in Chaos 039 The Price of Threatening Her!

  She smiled and was really curious about who she was going to be taken to see.

  Before long, a woman in green clothes was pressed in by two small eunuchs. Her face was delicate and pretty, but not particularly striking. Her hair was slightly disheveled, and her face also had the imprint of a palm, clearly showing that she had been subjected to corporal punishment.

  Her eyes were filled with confusion and terror. The moment she saw Su Jinping, the fear in her heart burst out instantly. She struggled free from the two small eunuchs and ran towards Su Jinping, hugging her legs and crying: "Noble Consort, please spare Miss! Please, spare Miss, Miss doesn't understand anything..."

  Su Jin Qiu frowned in disgust, lifted her leg and kicked her hard: "Get out! Filthy thing, do you dare to touch me?"

  The woman was kicked to the ground with one foot, and her delicate face was covered with tears, anxiously looking at Su Jinping...

  Su Jinping furrowed her brow, wasn't this palace maid the one who had been serving her in the palace on the day she crossed over? Could it be that the owner of this body and this palace maid had an unusual relationship?

  "Sister, you won't even recognize the maid who grew up with you since childhood? Or have you stopped caring about her life and death?" She leisurely took a sip of tea, her beautiful eyes full of confidence.

  But then, Su Jinping merely raised an eyebrow: "Sister is wise, but I really don't remember!" However, the corner of her eye glanced at the palace maid's expression, and she saw that after saying this, the palace maid didn't show any disappointment or disbelief on her face. Instead, she smiled slyly, clearly not wanting to implicate herself. With an imperceptible frown, it seemed that she was a loyal person after all.

  "Cough, cough..." Su Jin Qiu was choked by her words! She raised her eyes with some dark satire and looked at her, "Don't recognize me? I didn't know that after entering the palace, my sister had become heartless!"

  A few big steps, walked up to the palace maid's face, grabbed her hair, and successfully triggered a sharp cry from the palace maid: "Ah!"

  "Don't you recognize her? Sister, look at the scar on her forehead. It was left from seven years ago when she blocked that vase for you to protect your second sister. And this knife wound on her arm, it was from three years ago when you and third sister... 'competed' and she blocked it for you. And..."

  "That's enough!" Su Jinping coldly interrupted her, as the king of assassins, she could naturally see the age of that scar, it seemed that before her arrival, the owner of this body had suffered from countless bullying.

  She glanced at the palace maid, whose eyes were filled with sincerity and kindness. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, but just as she was about to smile, she suddenly opened them again, darted in front of Su Jin's face like the wind, and struck out with her hand at an unbelievably soft angle, finally accurately grasping her neck!

  "Nobody is allowed to make a sound! Let her go!" The icy voice seemed to come from the devil in hell, since this body owed her, she must pay it back!

  "You! You're so bold! Ah......" Just as she was about to scold, she felt the hand on her neck tightening, making it hard for her to breathe. The people below saw that Su Jin's life was in her hands and didn't dare to call for help.

  "Let her go! Don't make me say it a third time!" The words were forceful and decisive, and at this moment, no one doubted that if she said it a third time, Su Jin's neck would be the one to snap!

  And she, in her gamble, gambled that this imperial noble consort believed her own body was more important than that of the palace maid, and would not turn around to threaten her!

  However, she had gambled correctly! Su Jin Qiu coughed and waved her hand: "Release her, release that cheap servant!"

  The little eunuchs immediately released the palace maid and retreated to one side with concern. But that little palace maid, however, had tears in her eyes, looking at Su Jinping with emotion, Miss actually became so fierce for her!

  "Hmph!" With a cold snort, she shook off Su Jin Qiu, and that precious body of hers thudded onto the ground with a "thud".

  Su Jinping's lips curled up with a faint smile, and she snapped a small bone. This was the price of threatening her! Whether it was "Yaoniang" or Su Jinping, neither liked being threatened!

  "Ah!" Su Jinqiu cried out in pain, tears streaming down her face. The people below immediately went to support her, wanting to capture Su Jinping, but were intimidated by the aura she had just displayed and didn't dare get close.

  "Come here and let this palace... that lowly maid to be hacked to pieces..." The rest of the words were drowned out by the icy glint in Su Jin's eyes!

  What kind of eyes are those, as if they have been tempered in the underworld, even more terrifying than the most ominous thunderstorm on a summer day, making people feel terrified from the bottom of their hearts!

  "What does sister want me to be?" The words were spat out coldly, but the corners of her lips still curled up in a smile.

  Su Jin Qiu was frightened and took a few steps back, wishing she could fly out of the room immediately! "Aren't you afraid..."

  "I'm scared! Of course, I'm scared that Sister will order someone to kill me. After all, your status is noble, but does Sister know? I, Su Jinping, am not only a palace maid but also the master of the Ninth Prince. It's so easy for her to kill me! And besides, Sister just said those words, and I remember them all!" This was the real reason she accepted Huangfu Yi. In this ancient, helpless, and ruthless imperial palace, how could she not have an ace up her sleeve?

  "Enough!" Su Jin Qiu was successfully silenced! Indeed, regardless of the Ninth King's matter, just her own words from earlier were enough to put herself in a dead-end situation! So calling the guards to take someone away wouldn't work, she could only resolve it herself. Thinking this, she angrily shouted at the servants in her palace: "You, serve me!"

  "Sister, sister, I advise you to stop making trouble and go back. These few people are not my opponents at all!" As he spoke, he picked up a cup and pinched it lightly.

  "Bang!" It shattered!

  The eunuchs became even more fearful and retreated to the back. The palace maid stood beside Su Jinping with a look of admiration, Miss has become so powerful!

  Su Jin Qiu gritted her teeth and a flash of light flickered in the bottom of her eyes. She smiled and said, "Let's go!"

  After finishing speaking, people supported her and left.

  Su Jinping furrowed her brow, her phoenix eyes narrowing as she gazed coldly at their backs, somewhat unable to fathom the meaning behind that smile. Was it a smile? A sneer? Damnable!

  He quickly turned around and grabbed the palace maid's arm: "Did they feed you something?"

  "Ah?" The palace maid was startled at first, then tilted her head to recall, with a silly and lovely expression. She blinked her eyes, "Miss, I don't remember either... no, wait, I do! They fed me a black pill, but I don't know what it is. Could it be..."

  "It's nothing! You're a bit weak, take a rest! And what's your name?" As expected, she had been poisoned. Thinking back, it was her own fault for her behavior at the banquet that day. She had clearly asked for silver and pretended to be innocent and lovely, but still couldn't escape their eyes.

  The palace maid stared with wide eyes: "Miss, I'm called Shallow Memory! You really don't remember me?"

  "If I say I'm not your miss, what would you do?" She also wants to know if this girl is worth her fighting for.

  "Huh? Isn't that my miss? Then who is it?" Shallow memory stared at her blankly, somewhat unable to understand the meaning of these words.

  "Just assume that I am a wandering soul dwelling in the body of your family's young lady. If so, are you still loyal to me?" A pair of phoenix eyes tightly locked onto Shallow Memory's eyes.

  Miss, what are you talking nonsense about? You're my miss, no matter how you change, you'll always be my miss...

  "Alright, I understand!" Let go of her arm.

  At the same time, Shallow Memory rolled her eyes and fainted...

  ……

  It was night, Su Jin sat quietly in front of the desk, Qian Yi lay on the bed, but she had been tortured and her body couldn't hold up, and because of her identity, she couldn't even ask for a royal doctor for her.

  A cold wind blew, a flying dagger broke through the window, and a slender jade finger stretched out, easily pinching the blade between her fingers. The corner of her mouth curled up, she had been waiting for this flying dart! Opening it to take a look, she sighed, got up and headed towards the Pear Garden...
