Wu Jinmai's POV
The moment that three of the five servants secretly and quickly meet Noble Consort Fu's eyes, I know she sent those men to negotiate with these servants.
Good thing I learned some lessons from watching our ancient-themed television series. I keep in mind to keep my eyes on people to see their true intention.
I acted like I believed their sentence, but deep inside, I was brewing an interesting plan against that bitch. I heard my husband's voice. I stepped out and saw Shangguan Zu Jin looking at the servants.
"Your Majesty, what is going on here?" he asks. I step out and smirk.
"Well, these servants had poisoned Royal Concubine Qin and tried to drag my investigation as far as possible," I replied.
He notices how mad and frustrated I am. "I may suggest not to make the Empress angrier. You all know what she can do. I wonder if your whole clan will even accept you in the afterlife," Shangguan Zu Jin says and turns around to face the servants.
