And the two palace maids couldn't have been too far away either.
"There was nothing...."
"Nothing?"
Chen Yuan nodded, from this it could already be deduced that the death of Consort Shu was no simple matter, there must have been a master who sealed the six consciousnesses and five senses of both of them.
"When did you discover Consort Shu's body?"
"It was almost the hour of the pig, by that time her ladyship should have come down, but when she didn't, I plucked up the courage to go up and have a look,
and to my surprise, found nothing. Xiu'er, without thinking, looked down and saw Consort Shu... floating on the surface of the pond." Mentioning this,
panic was still visible in the little palace maid's eyes, showing how overwhelming the shock had been to them at the time.
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes:
"Did Consort Shu also go to enjoy the moon the day before yesterday?"
"She did.... She did."
