Eunuch Gao quickly smiled and nodded.

Shen Miao suddenly said, “Since he made a mistake, he naturally deserves to be punished.”

Everyone looked at her in surprise. The young eunuch trembled and looked at Shen Miao with a trace of hatred. Shen Miao ignored him and left with Luo Xueyan. Before she left, she said indifferently, “If you don’t know the rules, you have to be taught. The palace is different from the outside world. Today is different from the past.”

Shen Miao and the others gradually disappeared into the distance. Eunuch Gao said to the two guards, “What are you waiting for? Let’s go.”

Lizi’s face was filled with disbelief, and his face was filled with fear. He did not know what he had done wrong. In the small garden, Shen Miao’s personal maid, Jingzhe, gave him a silver ingot. She said to him that Eldest Miss Shen was not feeling well and did not want to drink the wine prepared by the palace banquet. She needed a cup of lotus tea and asked him to make an exception during the banquet later. Lizi was happy to do that and felt that if he pleased Eldest Miss Shen, he might get a chance to climb up the ladder.

However, Lizi did not expect Shen Qing to be pregnant. The lotus tea became the trigger of the entire series of events. After investigation, they found it was Lizi who did it.

No matter how many times Lizi explained, no one believed him. It was not hard to imagine what would happen to him in the torture room.

Shen Miao walked quietly. She knew better than anyone what was waiting for Lizi. The palace was a place where it was easy to distort the truth. When Fu Xiuyi just ascended the throne, Lizi was a dog that Eunuch Gao could order around at will. She took pity on him and was willing to use him in the palace. Later, when Lizi became Eunuch Li, she went from the empress to the deposed empress. This eunuch she helped stepped on her when she was down and told her, “Today is different from the past.”

Now, she returned this sentence to him. This life was different from the past. Now, she was the daughter of a high and mighty official, and he was just a speck of dust. She did not even need to kill him with her own hands.

She and Luo Xueyan walked in front, but they did not know that behind the winding corridor, someone looked at her back and sighed. “Does this Miss Shen have a grudge against that young eunuch? Why would she kill someone for no reason?”

Beside him, Xie Jingxing sneered at him. “When did you become so merciful?”

“A doctor should have the heart of a parent.” Gao Yang suddenly thought of something. His expression became solemn as he said, “Miss Shen is not simple. Just now, in the hall, she looked at me for a long time. Could it be that… she discovered my identity?”

“Impossible.”

“Then the way she looks at me is really scary.” Gao Yang rubbed his chin and thought for a moment before saying, “Could it be that she likes me?”

Xie Jingxing stared at him expressionlessly and said, “Get lost.”

“You’re really boring.” Gao Yang shook his head. “Although something big is imminent, you have to relax. Don’t pull a long face all day long”

Xie Jingxing looked into the distance and said, “Yu Shu is here.”

“What?” Gao Yang was shocked. “When?”
