After the decree was announced, the eunuch threw Die'er's corpse onto the ground.
The palace maids and eunuchs of Youlan Garden, who had been with her day and night, couldn't help but feel afraid as they saw the cold, lifeless body. Attendant Lady Lan was also terrified, her face losing all color.
The eunuch said coldly, "This unruly servant hurt Concubine Xi and was dragged away to be beaten to death. Now I return her to Miss Lan. Miss, take her well."
How should she take her?
"Die'er did not deserve to die..."
Die'er was one of the two maids who had come with Attendant Lady Lan from her hometown, who could dance, and naturally had feelings different from the palace maids distributed by the Imperial Household. As Attendant Lady Lan stammered, the eunuch sneered, "Miss, mind your words! The person was ordered to death by the Emperor. Do you think she didn't deserve to die, suggesting the Emperor's judgment was wrong?"
"Sir, you misunderstood."
