Eps. 38 Re-Investigation

Concubine Wan Rou immediately took out the paper faction and opened the green rope that bound her and opened it.

Consort Wan Rou started reading the writing on a piece of paper.

“This is Wu Shuang's true writing, but why did he reply to her in two languages?”concubine Wan Rou muttered as she read it and found an oddity there.

Consort Wan Rou rolled up the prayer she had finished. She seemed to smile little knowing her daughter was still alive and replied to her letter even though she did not know where the princess was at the moment.

“Wu Shuang.. I'm relieved to know you're alive. Hurry back to the palace.”momber Consort Wan Rou returned a small smile.

He rearranged the Bulbul who was still there and stroked his head.

“Bulbul thank you for helping me. Your work is good. Now go back.”ucap Consort Wan Rou stared at the pigeon of the fan.

Bulbul immediately flew out through the open window and within minutes the pigeon was lost in the air somewhere.

“tok... tok... tok...”voice of someone knocking on the door.

Bi Yu entered by bringing ginseng tea to Consort Wan Rou.

“The concubine Wan Rou's tea for the concubine.”the servant handed her ginseng tea and lottus soup.

“Just put it on Bi Yu's desk, later I will take it myself.”return the concubine turned to look at Bi Yu.

The maid then put the soup and ginseng tea on the table as ordered by the concubine.

“Bi Yu I got a reply from Princess Wu Shuang. She was still alive Bi Yu.”ucap Consort Wan Rou with a radiant face while showing a reply letter from her daughter.

Bi Yu looked and read briefly the letter that the cells showed to her in immediately returning it again.

The servant was delighted after reading the reply, although he was less sure if it was a reply from the princess because it was slightly different from the usual writing of Princess Wu Shuang.

“Concubine Wan Rou.. one hour ahead there is a banquet for all the servants of the royal palace.”ucap Bai Yu told her master.

“Concert for the palace servants ? Who held it ?”concubine Wan Rou replied asking.

Bai Yu then told the concubine that Empress Shen Shanyu had suddenly held a banquet for all the royal palace servants.

“Is there anything I can do for Consort Wan Rou at the moment ?”bai Yu asked before leaving the concubine's room.

“No Bai Yu you can go now. If you need anything later I will call you.”reply Concubine Wan Rou.

Since there was no more duty for him and the banquet was about to begin, Bai Yu asked for permission to leave the room to attend the banquet.

While Consort Wan Rou was back in the chair. He still remembered what Bai Yu had just told him.

“Consort Sheng Shanyu...what do you mean to hold a banquet amid the news of Princess Wu Shuang's death?”muttered Consort Wan Rou felt that the actions of the empress were really inappropriate in the midst of the palace atmosphere that was mourning at this time.

“Or perhaps Empress Shen Shanyu deliberately held a banquet to commemorate the day of my daughter's death ?”muttered Consort Wan Rou again trying to pull the current red thread and connect it.

Elsewhere in the hall Tampak Siring is currently gathered all the palace servants, men or women who are attending the invitation of the banquet. A variety of fine dishes are on the table.

“Actually what is the matter of Empress Shen Shanyu holding a banquet of ?”said one maid to the other maid sitting next to her because something like this had never happened before.

“I also don't know in what order this event is held.” replied the maid while whispering.

Shortly afterwards Empress Shen Shanyu walked into the hall with Princess Shen Bailian.

“Servants of Wanzhou royal palace all. Today I purposely gather you here to attend this banquet as my Thank You to all of you who have worked and served the entire palace well besides that as well as a commemoration day the deaths of my parents.”ucap Consort Shen Shanyu explained at length his purpose of holding a banquet at this time.

After giving a few minutes' welcome, Empress Shen Shanyu then ended her speech.

“All right I think welcome this time is enough and please all of you enjoy the dishes.”ucap Empress Shen Shanyu.

“Waah... thank you very much Empress Shen Shanyu.”ucap a servant who is a servant and works for her.

“Thank you for your generosity empress.”ucap the other servants follow her friend thank you.

The servants who were there immediately ate the dishes that were in front of their respective tables. They did not know and did not find out what exactly the main purpose behind the banquet was held this time.

The next day several bodyguards led by General Xuan were outside the palace and prepared to conduct a search and re-investigate of Princess Wu Shuang on orders from Emperor Luoying.

This time General Xuan brought ten of his bodyguards to help him. They were all seated on horses in the courtyard of the palace entrance.

“All right now Follow me to find the whereabouts of Princess Wu Shuang !”general Xuan said giving orders to his bodyguards.

“Good general !”answer the ten guards in unison.

“clop...clop...clop.”.

General Xuan led his guards and came out first then the other bodyguards immediately followed him from behind.

Meanwhile it appeared Emperor Luoying was standing in front of the palace with Empress Shen Shanyu to look at General Xuan.

Empress Shen Shanyu was displeased at the emperor's pampering attitude towards Consort Wan Rou.

“Your Majesty why send the troops back to look for the whereabouts of Princess Wu Shuang ? Will it not be in vain ?”empress Shen said as the two of them made their way back into the palace.

“Concubine Wan Rou looked very devastated and begged me to re-investigate.”, the emperor explained.

Empress Shen Shanyu just kept quiet and felt annoyed at Consort Wan Rou who seemed to always be able to hypnotize the Emperor and obey all his requests.

“Just look by deploying how many people at once. And the result is still and will not change it. Princess Wu Shuang is still dead.” Inner Empress Shen Shanyu.

Elsewhere Consort Wan Rou who also saw General Xuan from a distance unbeknownst to the Emperor and empress Shen was relieved to see the troops sent by the emperor already moving.
