The next moment —
"Your Highness, Your Highness, bad news! Your Highness, Mammy Li … "
A sharp voice mixed with terror came from outside the hall. Gu Yueyin looked over and saw a panic-stricken young eunuch tumbling and crawling on the ground, his face as white as a sheet of paper from fright.
"Your Highness … Your Highness, Mammy Li … Mammy Li …"
Gu Yueyin clenched her teeth and tried to calm her trembling heart. She pretended to be calm and said, "What happened to Mammy Li?"
"Mammy Li … Mammy Li is dead …"
"What?"
Gu Yueyin widened her eyes and her face was full of disbelief.
Two eunuchs carried Mammy Li's body in from outside.
There were two sharp strangulation marks on Yue Xiu's neck, and there was a deep wound on Mammy Li's neck. Blood diffused from the wound and solidified on her neck. Her torso inside seemed to be completely hollowed out, and it was all supported by her bones and unknown things.
But what scared Gu Yueyin the most was her face, which was studded with nails. There were nine thick nails. Every part of her face, every corner, looked exactly like Gu Yueqin at that time.
Her scalp was numb. She staggered to sit on the phoenix chair and almost fell down.
Fortunately, the maid beside her held her in time.
She looked at the maid with trembling and tearful eyes.
Her vision blurred, and all of a sudden, a face that she couldn't be more familiar with appeared in front of her eyes. It was a terrifying face that was full of rough nails.
"Ah —"
She screamed and pushed the maidservant away. "Get lost! Get out of here! Get out of here! "
"Your Highness, Your Highness, what's wrong with you?"
The maid who was pushed away looked scared and puzzled.
"She's back … she must be back …"
Gu Yueyin murmured in a daze. Her almond-shaped eyes were full of tears.
"I want to see the Emperor. I want to see the Emperor!"
"Your Highness, the Emperor is discussing with the ministers in the Imperial Kitchen …"
"I don't care. I don't care. I want to see the Emperor! Go quickly! Go to the Imperial Study Room, go now! "
After Gu Yueyin finished speaking emotionally, she felt her vision darken and her powerless body fell straight to the ground.
"Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Your Highness, wake up! "
For a moment, the servants of Auspicious Harmony Palace were in chaos.
Many panicked shouts could be heard.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and inform His Majesty in the imperial study! "
"Quickly summon the imperial physician! Summon the imperial physician! "
"If anything happens to Her Majesty, be careful of your heads!"
Huai Yang looked at the scene in front of him coldly. The servants of Xianghe Palace were in a flurry. Without the support of Yue Xiu and Mammy Li, they didn't know what to do.
While no one was paying attention, he quietly retreated.
....
After returning to Phoenix Perch Palace, he told Shen Yueji everything he had seen in Auspicious Harmony Palace, including how Gu Yueyin had fainted from fright.
Double Happiness listened with great interest. In the end, she didn't forget to pour a cup of tea for Shen Yueji. She even poured a cup of tea for Huai Yang, who was kneeling on the ground.
Taking a sip of tea, Shen Yueji looked doubtful. "I didn't expect the death of Yue Xiu and Mammy Li to have such a big impact on sister Empress."
