Chapter 497

The empress of the late imperial concubine sitting on the bed didn't speak, but looked at Xiao Jing calmly. She was somewhat blind and deaf.

Xiao Jing saw that the empress of the imperial concubine didn't speak. That night, the empress of the imperial concubine was also empty in her heart. She changed her previous respect and asked the magpie loudly, "how do you explain this blood coat? Did you hide the assassin? Say!"

Seeing that the late imperial concubine's face was calm and did not speak for her, the magpie immediately cried, "tell imperial concubine Xiao whether you have any slaves. Even if you have a hundred courage, you don't dare to have anything to do with the assassin!"

Xiao Jing's voice increased a little: "then you say, how did this blood coat come from?"

The blood dress was left by her wound when she bumped into Huajing... Magpie didn't know what to say for a moment. She looked at concubine Xiao and stammered: "report back to your mother, the blood... The blood was accidentally soiled by your servant... It's Yuexin..."

Hearing the speech, Xiao Jing couldn't help staring at the magpie's flustered and pale face again. She ordered the two palace maids around her: "take her to check... If she lies, the assassin must have something to do with her!"

When the magpie heard the speech, his whole body was paralyzed and dragged out by the two palace maids around Xiao Jing. "Empress... I really don't know what assassin. I'm really wronged... Empress Xiao, I'm wronged..."

After being pulled down for a while, the magpie came back under pressure.

After hearing the report from the palace maid, Xiao Jing shouted loudly, "dare you deceive the palace? You must have colluded with the assassin and didn't recruit from the truth!"

"Concubine Xiao, I really don't know. I haven't seen an assassin. I'm wronged..."

Seeing that magpie was dead and refused to admit it, Xiao Jing was anxious to catch Huajing. For a moment, she forgot that there was still a late imperial concubine sitting next to her. She shouted to magpie, "then tell me, how did the blood on your clothes come from? It seems that you are with an assassin... It doesn't seem right. You won't confess if you torture you. Come on, wait with a stick!"

As soon as the magpie heard of the three souls of the splint, he frightened two and a half souls and immediately kowtowed and begged: "Princess Xiao, spare your life... I'm wronged... I'm really wronged..."
