That day General Xuan immediately launched an investigation into the poisoning of the emperor.

The man and other officers came to the palace cook room and gathered all the servants who served in the kitchen to be questioned.

“What is this... Why are so many officers coming here ?”said one waitress asking the other waiter.

“Ware they are definitely here on noble orders to conduct an investigation on all of us.” replied a waiter in response.

Elsewhere in the laundry room, Fang was seen sitting and contemplating while drying clothes.

“How is it... Why did Consort Wan Rou and Emperor Luoying get food poisoning ? And I didn't do anything. Or maybe it was all planned ? Was I accidentally trapped by May?”the woman muttered, and finally had a thought as to who was behind all this.

Fang then walked quickly to find May and she found the woman in the cleaning room.

“May. But I feel like I've never been in trouble with you. But why did you frame me ?”said Fang approached May who had just finished cleaning a room.

“What are you talking about ? I don't know what you mean ?”may replied with a furrow of her brows.

“You don't pretend to be so stupid. You used to be with me before, but yesterday why were you suddenly so kind to me and petrified me by preparing food for Consort Wan Rou ?”fang said back to explain for the maid to be clear.

“What are you talking about.. I'm just helping you as a friend.”reply May is a little anxious but trying to stay calm.

“May.. apparently you have prepared this plan carefully before. You mixed poison into the food and gave it to me so I could be blamed, didn't you?”said Fang tried to corner May. But unfortunately the waiter did not admit and was good at kink.

General Xuan gathered all the servants into the hall. An officer checked the list of names of all the servants who worked there and found that two of the servants had not been present to fulfill his call.

“Find these two maids, and bring them now here too.”tap an officer to the other officers while handing them both names.

An officer immediately moves a comb to another location to find Fang and May.

“Hey you two come with me!”officers said they found the two maids arguing.

“A-there what master call us ?”may replied that she looked groggy and sweaty.

“You do not know today there is an investigation related to a noble case of poisoning.” replied the officer earlier explained.

Fang and May finally followed the officer into the hall.

There some officers began to interrogate all the servants in the hall until noon.

“You can all get out and get back on duty now. Tomorrow morning we will call you to continue the investigation of this case.”tap an officer standing on the pulpit giving an explanation to all the servants who were there.

Ten minutes later the hall appeared empty. May is seen walking alone to the room where she rests.

“Ouf... how is this... what should I do ? How can I avoid the suspicions of those officers ?”the inner servant thought as he leaned against the wall.

From the outside, Empress Shen Shanyu came to May's place.

“kriek...”permaisuri opened the door of the room where May rested.

“Commissioner Shen ? Greetings empress.”pap the maid when standing up in shock and immediately saluted her.

“May... lest you leak or show them if I told you to do this.”ucap the empress looked at the waiter while touching her face.

“Ba-good empress... but-but what if I get a severe punishment after admitting it ?”the waiter responded.

“Good empress..”answer him by forcing a smile.

Empress Shen walked out of the room quietly and smiled widely.

At night in May's room, the woman sat in the corner of the room. He couldn't sleep even though he was sleepy. His mind floated everywhere and his countenance looked tense.

“Officers will definitely find and catch my wet self, then I have to admit it. Ooh... I'm sweet as what will I get ?”muttered the servant thought of the different types of punishment that would be accepted for the case.

He recalled the smile of his little daughter in the village and made her rise again from fear.

“For my daughter anything I would do.”her mummy is short.

Elsewhere in Fang's room, the female servant was also unable to sleep. He thought about the investigation tomorrow that would definitely be exhausting for him.

“Although it wasn't me but the one who delivered the food back then was me. Haah... I hope the officer trusts my testimony.”he said softly. He searched and collected evidence to prove his innocence.

The next morning the palace attendants called the kitchen servants back to the hall.

Due to the large number of servants who had to be interrogated, the palace attendants immediately began their investigation.

“tap... tap...”one by one the completed waiters are questioned, exit the hall and are allowed to return to work.

Until noon it appeared that an officer was questioning Fang.

“Nona when this incident took place was not the lady who made and delivered the dishes for Consort Wan Rou ?”ask an officer to investigate.

“That day I did want to cook for Consort Wan Rou sir, but I have not had time to cook a servant friend came to see me and be kind to me by giving cooking so for the concubine.”ansaid Fang gave an honest testimony while the royal officer recorded everything he said.

“Then who's that waitress you mean ?”

“She is May sir.” she replied as she pointed towards the waiter.

The palace attendant then called May and conducted an investigation on her.

“May's Miss Is it true that you made and gave the food for Consort Wan Rou to this lady ?”ask the palace attendant.

“True, sir.”Answer May briefly.

“Why did you give food to Consort Wan Rou without anyone asking for ?”the palace officer again.

The waiter looked silent for a long time thinking of finding the right reason.

The palace attendant felt that something was suspicious with the maid. He continued to ask questions to May and made the woman to the corner.

“Does anyone ask or tell a lady to make a Wan Rou Concubine's meal?”ask the palace attendant to investigate.

“No... no sir.”he replied in short while shaking his head and cold sweat began to pour.

“It looks like this waiter is the main suspect of the case. I will do further investigation on him.”batin palace attendant.

He kept May and Fang in the hall, even though all the other servants had already left and asked the two ministries a lot of questions.
