Li Chen suddenly pointed to a maid behind Li Yinhu, beckoning her over. Everyone except Li Yinhu himself was clueless about what had happened.
Zhao Qinglan frowned, feeling suspicious.
while Li Yinhu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
He couldn't have imagined that, before the Saintess could even make a move, Li Chen had already spotted the flaw.
At this moment, Li Yinhǔ's whole brain felt numb.
From the crowd behind him, a palace maid walked forward slowly.
"Halt."
Li Chen suddenly said, "Just stand there, don't get too close."
Actually, Li Chen hadn't noticed that the maidservant before him was actually Saintess disguised.
After all, this palace maid had undergone a facial alteration, her appearance was ordinary and she was worlds apart from the holy maiden.
Having just barely escaped death, and having been spared by the hands of a saintess, Li Chen subconsciously felt that this palace maid was off. There was a sense of familiarity about her, as if he had met her before.
But he couldn't possibly have any dealings with a palace maid by Li Yinhǔ's side.
Li Chen, who was naturally suspicious, developed his current words and actions.
The maid stood still, then paused for a moment before slowly kneeling before Li Chen and saying, "Slave greets Your Highness."
The voice was raspy, not exactly unpleasant but certainly not pleasing to the ear.
Everything seems to be normal.
Ke Li chen just felt that something was wrong.
"Common palace maids would be terrified and anxious upon seeing me, but you show no such reaction. Your expression is blank, your eyes vacant... When did you start serving King Zhao And where are you from" Li Chen asked.
That maidservant still paused for a moment before replying, "The servant was too frightened. The servant entered the mansion at the end of last year. Thanks to the Prince's mercy, the servant has been allowed to serve him closely. The servant hails from Nanyang Prefecture."
Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Li Yinhu, saying, "This servant, this palace quite likes him. King Zhao willing to part with him"
Li Yinhu's heart turned cold, and he didn't know what to do. At that moment, Zhao Qinglan beside him said impatiently: "She's just a palace maid. If the Crown Prince likes her, take her away. Why talk so much"
Looking at Zhao Qinglan's frosty expression, Li Chen smiled and said, “Your mother is still the most generous.”
Pointing at the palace maid, Li Chen said, "You, come with me."
The palace maid remained silent.
Li Yinhu had to bite the bullet and say, "Your Highness, this palace maid is my younger brother's possession. If Your Highness likes her, my younger brother can find a few more beautiful and obedient ones to send to the East Palace"
"This palace has many maidservants."
Li Chen said faintly, "But this palace maid is different from the others."
"How can it be, King Zhao, that you are unwilling to part with her"
Li Chen's words instantly plunged Li Yinhu into an extremely difficult dilemma.
He was speechless, beads of sweat forming on his forehead. He felt that while things seemed calm on the surface at the moment, a great danger lurked, and the possibility of everything changing color in an instant was always present.
Li Yinhu remained silent, and Li Chen waited for him to speak.
To be honest, she's just a palace maid. Li Yinhu shouldn't be so stubborn about this.
So the more abnormal Li Yinhu became, the more suspicion grew in Li Chen's heart.
And at this moment, the maidservant kneeling on the ground suddenly looked up.
This sudden outburst was like a galaxy of assassins, instantly engulfing the entire Fengxi Palace.
Li Chen saw the palace maid's eyes as cold as snow on Mount Tianshan, and his heart trembled instantly.
That look, he knows it too well!
Even before the brain could fully process the situation, the body had already reacted instinctively... run!
The Saint has turned traitor!
This was Li Chen's first thought.
But just as Li Chen took a step, the Saintess rose and unleashed two palm strikes.
Within the range of the Saintess' martial arts, whoever she strikes with these two palms shall surely die.astern Palace, or they felt that the Eastern Palace lacked manpower and decided to defect early for a gamble. In any case, these people remained.Even among them, there are definitely some traitors sen...
