Chapter 16.2
Then, she ran towards Old Maidservant Zhao . "Su Xi-er doesn't know what's good for her . Old Maidservant, you can't indulge her anymore!"

Old Maidservant Zhao had a terrible headache with how c . u . mbersome matters were . It is the Empress Dowager on one hand, and Su Xi-er who has an unknown backer on the other . I must make a choice . Being indecisive is no longer an option .

After pondering for a moment, the expression in Old Maidservant Zhao's eyes turned ruthless . "Su Xi-er, there were numerous chamber pots sent here this morning . They are in the small woodhouse at the northwest corner of the Palace Side Quarters . Go clean them up!"

When Hong Li heard the words 'northwest corner' and 'small woodhouse', her expression changed . Su Xi-er could sense the fear in her eyes .

The chamber pots aren't piled up there at all . I have never heard any palace maid mention that place before, and I have also never met any palace maid who has gone there before .

Despite that, the very mention of this place caused Hong Li to reveal a terrified expression . Could it be that there is some unspeakable secret hidden there?

"There's a woodhouse at the northwest corner of the Palace Side Quarters?" Su Xi-er raised her head to look at Old Maidservant Zhao and asked .

Old Maidservant Zhao's expression changed slightly as she flung her sleeves . "Of course there is . You just have to go and scrub all the chamber pots until they become immaculate . "

"In the past, I have always been was . h . i . +ng at night . Although the time has now changed to day, I'll definitely go since they are your instructions, Old Maidservant . " Su Xi-er hung the fragrance sachet at her waist before turning around and heading towards the northwest corner .

As Old Maidservant Zhao looked at the fragrance sachet at Su Xi-er's waist, her expression was a little complicated . Why is there safflower mixed inside? It's definitely the Empress Dowager's intentions for He Ying to send this . Don't tell me . . .

"Old Maidservant Zhao, Su Xi-er can't tell what's good for her . A few strikes of the plank is enough . Why is there a need to…" When Hong Li saw the coldness in Old Maidservant Zhao's eyes, she immediately zipped her mouth .

"She brought it upon herself . " Old Maidservant Zhao's voice was calm, her eyes directed at Hong Li in a warning look .

Hong Li trembled . Could it be that she has already seen through the collaborative relations . h . i . +p between Su Xi-er and me?

If she has seen through it . . . should I gamble that Su Xi-er will escape this calamity?


"Monitor Su Xi-er . " Old Maidservant Zhao turned to leave .

Hong Li pursed her lips tightly . I don't want to get close to that woodhouse at the northwest corner at all . Any palace maid that has a connection to that place will die .

Since she dispatched me to monitor Su Xi-er, she must have started to become suspicious of me!

Su Xi-er walked all the way in the direction of the northwest corner . The palace maids who saw her thought that she had gone mad for her to be walking towards the northwest corner without rhyme or reason . When they saw that the direction she was walking towards was the abandoned woodhouse, everyone's eyes involuntarily widened, giving her incredulous, terrified and multifarious looks in their eyes .


Su Xi-er paid no attention to them, instead being ever more curious about what kind of place the woodhouse was .

How exactly is that place like? What is hidden there that makes these people so afraid?

The further down the remote path she headed, the more unkempt the foliage became . Some of the plants were already taller than humans .

When she walked even further ahead, she realised that she had already reached the end of the path . Where is the woodhouse?

Could it be that the woodhouse is within the cl . u . s . ter of plants? With such a theory, she walked into the cl . u . s . ter of plants .

An old-fas . h . i . +oned wooden cabin entered her eyes . The sides of the wooden cabin were overgrown with weeds and there were even cobwebs hanging from its doors .

Su Xi-er walked towards the wooden cabin, pus . h . i . +ng aside the cobwebs and opening the door before she stepped in .

A dusty old-fas . h . i . +oned smell a . s . sailed her nostrils . Everything in the woodhouse was covered with dust .

There weren't many things in there . There was a shelf for placing wooden basins, a set of damaged wooden desk and stools, a rusty oil lamp as well as a cupboard in the corner .

From its appearance, it looked like a wooden cabin that had been abandoned for a long time . Apart from that, there was nothing else much that was noteworthy . However, she definitely didn't believe that this was an ordinary woodhouse . She inspected every nook and cranny, but unfortunately, her comprehensive search was doomed to yield nothing besides more dust .

That was until she came to the cupboard in the corner and discovered that there was something below the right corner of the cupboard .

This thing is . . .
