章節 1162: 564 Great Righteousness! (One more chapter)

Steward Wei quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Princess Ning An, frozen in place, was not so pleased. Her gaze turned icy, "Steward Wei."

"At your service!" Steward Wei concealed his emotions, promptly transforming into a fawning subordinate, "What are your orders, Princess?"

Princess Ning An commanded indifferently, "Go find the Empress Dowager."

"Yes." Steward Wei complied, and together with the imperial guards searched the Renshou Palace inside and out three times. All the other palace maids were present, except for Empress Dowager Zhuang and Steward Qin.

"Go ask those palace maids," said Princess Ning An.

"I asked, they know nothing," Steward Wei replied.

Princess Ning An looked at him coldly.

Steward Wei blocked the view of the imperial guards and whispered a reminder, "Princess, we can't use torture in Renshou Palace; it draws too much attention. Besides, rectifying the Imperial Harem is the Empress's affair. Overstepping bounds could give others leverage against us."
