Chapter 597: Master Could Not Satisfy The Empress

Empress Dowager Xiaojing gave the matter deep thought before sitting down again. "Could you have been mistaken? Perhaps that wasn't Madam Ling you saw earlier?"

"It's impossible for me to have been mistaken! I heard the voices of Madam Ling and Lu Liangwei when they were conversing at the medicinal shop with my own ears, I am certain of it," Liu Fu replied with full certainty.

Empress Dowager Xiaojing went silent. Quite some time passed before her eyes narrowed as she gave an order. "Then find a way to make her die again."

"Yes, Your Imperial Highness," Liu Fu answered and left the room.

Empress Dowager Xiaojing glared at Matron Chen, then she slammed her hand onto the handle of the chair. She snarled with rage, "You almost made a mess of things!"

Matron Chen knelt in shock as she said in a trembling voice, "I did not do a good job of this. Please hand out my punishment, Your Imperial Highness."
