Chapter 776: Delivering Food (2)

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes at her. "Who are you? Why should I listen to you?" she thought.

Empress Dowager Zhou was so angry that she fell back. She covered her head for a long time before recovering. She said coldly, "Are you really not afraid of death?"

"Of course I'm afraid. Why wouldn't I be? But didn't the emperor say that he would spare my life for five days? Why? Do the emperor's words not count?"

She knew he couldn't go back on his word.

Was she really using the authority of the emperor? This was an eye-opener for everyone.

Moreover, this was a death warrant.

Empress Dowager Zhou took a deep breath. "What do you want in return for releasing the cranes?"

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes and was about to say something when she heard Empress Dowager Zhou say coldly, "Since you know what's good for you, you should know that I won't let you out of the palace."

The emperor had also said that she would be a hostage in the palace.
