Chapter 614 A Silver Lining (Part One)

Yun Shang narrowed her eyes, with astonishingly bright light in her eyes, and asked, "Your master, what did your master see?"

The woman shuddered at her words. Biting her lips, she cried out, "yes, my master! My master saw his majesty and Prince Rui!" Then the woman fell to the ground as if she had lost all her strength after the words. She then said in a low voice, "that day, my master went to her husband's yard to look for him, but he wasn't there. As my master saw many books scattered on the ground in the messy room, she cleaned the room by herself for him. But she accidentally bumped into something on the shelf. With a loud bang, the shelf was moved away. "

The woman's voice kept trembling, as if she was still frightened. "After the bookshelf was moved, there was a dark cave. On that day, I was the only one following my master that day. My master and I were shocked and watched outside for a while before she dragged me with her and walked in. However, we walked for only a short while before we saw an iron gate. Curious as my master was, she peeped through the gate and saw the emperor and Prince Rui sitting inside.

My master was scared and dared not stay any longer. So she and I rushed back into the room. She searched back and forth in the shelf for several times before she finally moved the shelf back. And being afraid of being discovered by her husband, she could only restore the room to what it looked like before with only the help of her memory. "

Yun Shang remained doubtful about the woman's words. After a short silence, she asked her again, "Lady Liu saw the emperor and Prince Rui that day, so she wanted to go to the palace to report the empress as soon as she saw the emperor and his royal highness?"

The woman shook her head, "My master and her husband have been married for so many years. At the beginning, my master was just frightened. At that time, the rumors of the emperor's accident and the disappe

ed a message to me, saying that my master had a sudden illness and died. She, along with the maids who accompanied my master, was not found. I guess that my master must be so anxious that she told his lordship that she knew about the matter of his majesty and Prince Rui, and was killed by the eldest princess and his lordship."

With tears streaming down the woman's face, the woman kowtowed to Yun Shang for several times and begged, "please help me, your highness!"

Yun Shang hurriedly said, "if what you said is true, of course I will help you out. Did you give me that purple jade and Phoenix shaped hairpin? How did you get that hairpin?"

"After my master died, I wanted to avenge my master. This morning when I went out of the mansion for shopping, I came to the Prince Rui's mansion for many times, but the door was closed every time, and there were guards in the mansion, so I couldn't get close. Then I went back to the mansion. When there was no one in his lordship's yard, I went into the yard, pretending to be the maid who had sent presents to him. I saw the hairpin placed in the outer room, so I took it over. I can't go in because there were guards at the inner door. I'm not sure whether his majesty and Prince Rui are still in the mansion or not. " The woman said in a low voice.
