Kneeling down, Zhao Rui raised her hand and grabbed the maid's hair, pulling her face up to meet hers.

"The East Palace is only this big, and there are only a few dozen palace maids."

"Since you've come in disguised as a maid, someone must have seen you. I'll call all the maids here to identify each other; surely one of them will recognize you."

"As long as we find the person who helped you enter the East Palace, then we can follow the clues to uncover the mastermind behind this."

"Do you agree"

Listening to Zhao Rui's words, the palace maid's face showed a look of panic.

But she still stubbornly retorted, “So what I just spent some money to buy someone's help and got this outfit. Even if someone has seen me, they wouldn't know who I am.”

"Yes, you make a lot of sense."

Zhao Rui not only didn't refute, but also gave a compliment, then released the palace maid's hair and stood up to order the eunuchs: "Take off her shoes and socks, and pick off each of her fingernails for me."

Turning her head, Zhao Rui looked at the palace maid with a gentle expression and said: "You must absolutely not confess. If you do, I'll have much less fun."

Zhao Rui's words made the maid, whose ten fingers were already numb with pain, feel a stabbing sensation again.

Recalling the unbearable pain, the maidservant shuddered.

Especially Zhao Rui's gentle tone and stunningly beautiful face, which was as enchanting as a female ghost, created a huge contrast. The combination of astonishment and terror left the palace maids with only fear in their hearts.

Deep down, the fear of Zhao Rui overwhelmed her physical pain. At this moment, she no longer wanted to be tortured.

The palace maid screamed with her eyes closed, "I confess, I confess to everything!"

"Tell me whatever you want to know. I'll tell you everything. Just please, kill me quickly and give me an end to this!"

Zhao Rui looked coldly at the palace maid, her eyes seeming to disdain that the palace maid had lost so quickly.

"Have someone record everything she says, word for word."

"Who instigated her, and how did she get into the East Palace Everything about the assassination must be written clearly."

"Having said that, Zhao Rui chuckled softly and added, “If she’s even a little dishonest, there’s no need to waste words. I'll simply trim his fingernails one by one, then come back to you. I'll naturally have a way to deal with him.” "

After speaking, Zhao Rui turned and left, leaving the maidservants who were frightened speechless to stammer their accounts to the guards who had come to record everything.

Zhao Rui just stepped outside the door, she could no longer hold back and her face turned pale. She leaned against the railing and vomited twice.

"My lady, what's wrong"

Seeing Zhao Rui slumped over the railing, retching, her several close-knit handmaidens were frightened and rushed forward to ask.

"It's nothing." Zhao Rui shook her head.

He said weakly, "I'm just a little unsettled by the bloodshed just now."

Several maidservants also looked shaken and said, “Turns out even Your Majesty is afraid. We thought that only we, who have never seen such a bloody scene, would be afraid. But just now, Your Majesty didn't show any fear at all.”

"If even you can see that I'm afraid, then how could that palace maid have confessed"

She shook her head and said, "I'm just putting on a brave face, trying to scare her."are any internal changes, discover them in time. If you can't handle it, let Sanbao take care of it. He will report to this palace."Song Yingxing, satisfied with the outcome, bowed politely and then t...
