1560 She Would Not Miss Out On Any Chance Of Basking In Another’s Power

Yaoyao instantly understood when she heard the maid-in-waiting’s words.

It seemed like the maid-in-waiting had already guessed that Yaoyao might be a guest brought here by Beitang You, yet, she still dared to treat Yaoyao this way.

She looked at the maid-in-waiting thoughtfully and saw a vicious streak flash quickly in the maid-in-waiting’s eyes.

Yaoyao was taken aback. If she really fell into the maid-in-waiting’s hands, she would not be taught just a simple lesson.

This maid-in-waiting clearly wanted her life.

However, why was that? Yaoyao did not know her and this was the first time they had met.

The palace guards knew this woman was the maid-in-waiting in charge of the Emperor’s bedroom, which was why they did not hesitate with her orders.

“Yes.”

The palace guards quickly jumped onto the rooftop as they tried to capture Yaoyao.

Yaoyao may not be skilled in martial arts, but she was very good at Light Body Skill.

When the palace guards flew up to the rooftop, she flittered away like an agile little bird.

The palace guards returned empty-handed.

Anger filled the maid-in-waiting. She was about to give another order to have Yaoyao captured when she spotted Beitang You hurriedly coming toward them with more men from the corner of her eye.

A chill ran through her as she quickly knelt to greet him.

“Greetings to Your Majesty!”

The others followed suit and knelt.

Beitang You had heard from the palace maid serving Yaoyao say that Yaoyao was missing, and he was searching everywhere for her. When he saw a crowd standing there along with palace guards, he was immediately upset. “What’s going on? What are all of you doing here?”

“There is an assassin, Your Majesty…” The palace guard had just replied when the assassin he was talking about came rushing down toward Beitang You from the rooftop. The expression on his face changed as he immediately went forward to protect His Majesty. “There’s an assassin. Be careful, Your Majesty!”

Beitang You’s expression relaxed when he saw Yaoyao flying toward him. “Where were you, Yaoyao?”

Yaoyao landed right in front of him and replied innocently, “Running for my life, of course.”

“Hmph. Why don’t you ask your loyal palace maids?” Yaoyao’s gaze swept past the palace maids standing at the side as she purposely said this in an unhappy tone.

Even though the palace maids meant nothing to her, she would not miss out on any chance of basking in another’s power.

All the palace maids turned pale when they heard her words.

What could be more obvious than this?

The familiar way Yaoyao was speaking to the Emperor alone was enough to prove that there was more to her than meets the eye.

They had been working in the Palace for a long time and had never seen the Emperor treat anyone in such a friendly manner.

Beitang You was taken aback. He suddenly understood what had happened when he remembered the palace guard’s words. His handsome face turned grim and he said sternly, “Who has offended Princess Yaoyao?”

The word ‘princess’ was enough to shock everyone into silence. Every person there kept their heads low and did not dare say a word.

When Beitang You saw them staying silent, he sniggered. “When did the servants in the Palace begin to act in such an inappropriate manner?” With that, he gave the order. “Take away all those servants who did not act according to the rules and flog them to death!”

Everyone was shocked to hear the phrase ‘flog them to death’.

The palace maids began begging for mercy. “We were blind not to have recognized the princess and offended her. Please show mercy, Your Majesty!”

Some palace maids were so scared, they had begun crying.

The maid-in-waiting knelt to the ground with a ghastly pale look on her face as she looked at Beitang You in disbelief.

Even though His Majesty did not like any maids coming in close contact with him when serving him, she had still serviced the Serenity Palace for a long time. Did His Majesty feel nothing for her?

Was he really able to execute his maid-in-waiting because of some random princess?

She was angry and filled with hatred as she glared viciously at Yaoyao.

It was that troublemaker’s fault for His Majesty being in such a big temper. She was nothing but trouble!

The maid-in-waiting regretted not getting rid of this harlot earlier.
