Chapter 996 The Xiyue Kingdom V

Weisheng Bingqin took them to the Kunning Palace of the empress. On the way, she told them briefly about the empress.

Qingyan observed the surroundings carefully all the way. There was nothing special about the surroundings, so it could only prove that the poison was brought out of their living palaces, or that there were people bought by Lady Xu in their palaces.

When she saw Weisheng Bingqin, Chuanlan said respectfully, "What can I do for you, lady? The empress is sleeping now."

Qingyan said with a smile, "You are lying. The empress is not sleeping. You should tell us what she is doing now."

Chuanlan replied with disdain, "Who are you? Don't you know I'm the favorite maid of the empress? How dare you talk to me like this?" Come on! Slap her!"

Just as a servant was about to slap Qingyan, Qingyan broke Chuanlan's arm and said, "You don't need to know who I am. You just need to know you will suffer after offending me!"

Realizing Qingyan was not nice, Chuanlan could only run to the Kunning Palace with her hands covering her arms. After a while, the empress appeared with a haggard face.

"Oh, you have come. What can I do for you?" The empress looked Weisheng Bingqin and said in a choky voice, "I've been very tired and sleepy these days, so I haven't seen anyone else,"

Weisheng Bingqin turned to look at Qingyan and Sikong Zhaoya.

"Sister, I do have something to tell you." After saying something in the ear of the empress, the empress looked at Qingyan.

"Come in!" Then the empress turned around and left.

Weisheng Bingqin led them into the Kunning Palace.

However, there was a strong and pungent smell in the Kunning Palace. All the curtains were pulled up, as if there was only night and no day in the palace.

"Sister, why do you pull up the curtains?" When Weisheng Bingqin was about to open the curtain, Qingyan stopped her.

"It seems that this Lady Xu really wants to kill all of you. She even poisoned you with the same kind of poison, and some of them are heavy." Qingyan looked at the empress

use at that time, no matter how I wanted to open my eyes, I couldn't make it!"

Looking at the marks on the empress's legs, Qingyan raised her legs to observe them carefully. Qingyan smelled them, but she couldn't figure it out.

"Do you know who bite my legs?"

Qingyan looked at the empress and shook her head. "I don't know. But since I can stay here tonight, I will know. It has sharp teeth, not like an ordinary mouse."

The empress looked at Qingyan and nodded. "I know it's not a mouse, but I really don't know what other animals can leave such marks except mouse. But I can't see it myself."

Qingyan patted the empress and nodded, "You don't need to worry. We'll know what it is tonight. I'll be with you."

Seeing the expression on Qingyan's face, the empress held Qingyan's hand and asked, "Are you really willing to stay here with me? In fact, the maids outside don't want to stay with me at night, because sometimes those things will attack them, so they are afraid and don't want to serve me."

Hearing the empress's words, Qingyan nodded, "It doesn't matter. I will always be with you. Besides, I want to know what kind of animal can leave such marks."

The empress felt tired, and then fell asleep. Qingyan turned around and was about to left. Then she found a very cute rabbit.

When Qingyan saw the rabbit, something occurred to her.
