Turning around, Lady Wang saw Lady Northern Feng!
Although Lady Wang didn't like Lady Northern Feng, she couldn't show it because of the latter's status.
Not only could he not show it, but he also had to pretend to be friendly and warm.
"Lady Northern Feng …"
Lady Northern Feng smirked. "Did you just say that my Xiao Wu is dead?"
My Xiao Wu? He was really protective of his own people! Lady Wang cursed inwardly, but she forced a smile. "Lady Northern Feng, that's what we've heard …"
"Who told you? Who told you? What did they say? Write down the names."
Lady Northern Feng smirked. "Imperial College hasn't released any information yet. I'd like to see who's spreading the rumor and causing panic among the public! I have to report this to His Majesty and the empress dowager! "
To … His Majesty and the empress dowager?
Lady Wang panicked!
She had never heard of Feng Wu's death. She had made it up on the spot to scare the Second Madam.
"Lady Northern Feng, this …"
"Write it down!" Lady Northern Feng flared up. Instantly, the air around them turned cold, as if a gust of wind had passed through!
Lady Wang's stomach lurched.
Granny Tao, who was standing next to Lady Northern Feng, smirked. She fetched a brush and some ink, put it in front of Lady Wang, spread out the paper, and handed it to Lady Wang. "Lady Wang, please."
Lady Wang didn't know whether to take the brush or not.
Writing it down would be evidence of her crime. If His Majesty and the empress dowager were to report her to the emperor and the empress dowager, she would be charged with spreading the rumor. That could cost her her life!
Lady Northern Feng was known for her fearlessness and recklessness. There was nothing she wouldn't do.
The more Lady Wang thought about it, the more frightened she became. She broke out in a cold sweat.
She had no choice but to plead with Lady Northern Feng. "Your Ladyship, a maid told me about it."
"Which maid?"
"C- Caiyue."
"Where's Caiyue?!"
Caiyue was already trembling with fear, and she dropped to her knees at Lady Northern Feng's intimidating tone.
"Granny Tao, take her to the room next door and record everything she says." Lady Northern Feng smirked.
Very soon, Granny Tao carried Cai Yue away as if she was carrying a little chick.
But now …
Lady Northern Feng glanced at Lady Wang with a half-smile. "Now, Lady Wang, tell me everything you heard from Caiyue." Lady Wang nodded.
It was obvious that he was interrogating First Madam.
Lady Wang flared up. "Lady Northern Feng, are you interrogating me?! My master may be a good-for-nothing, but he's still the minister of the Ministry of Official Personnel. Lady Northern Feng, don't you care about that at all? "
Lady Northern Feng chuckled. "That's why you're still here, Lady Wang, instead of at the Ministry of Punishments!"
"You!" Lady Wang's heart trembled. She had merely spread a rumor. Was it that serious?!
"I'll give you ten breaths of time. If not, I'll hand you over to the Ministry of Justice for interrogation!" Lady Northern Feng smirked. "His Majesty is looking for the person who spread the rumor. Mrs Wang, are you that person?"
Lady Wang's face turned pale with fright …
Right at this moment!
"Pa!"
"Ah!"
"Pa!"
"Ah!"
Whips and screams could be heard coming from inside.
No need to think to know that this was Granny Tao interrogating Cai Yue.
