"Did you put the whole dose this time as instructed?" She asked the timid young maid once again.

"Yes… But… Why she… No, I mean why did you and Madame try to poison her royal highness the empress?" She tries to understand their reason.

"You do not need to know the reason. Did anyone see you put the drugs?" She told her with her seniority.
