An Eye for an Eye

With Concubine Shu's shout, the scene immediately became chaotic.

Yu Niaoniao ignored this.

She took out the handkerchief she carried with her and tied a knot around the dead snake, then handed it to the eunuch beside her.

"Hold it for me."

The young eunuch swallowed hard. "Why must I hold it?"

Such a scary thing should be thrown away!

Yu Niaoniao said matter-of-factly.

"Why throw it away? It's such a waste. Wouldn't it be better to bring it back to cook snake soup?"

The young eunuch did not know how to respond. His face turned red as he forced out a comment.

"You sure know how to live."

He gingerly took the snake's carcass.

It took a while for Noble Consort Shu to calm down.

She knew that she had lost her composure just now and was actually frightened to death by a small snake. How embarrassing would it be if word got out?!
