"Father-in-law, why are you so pessimistic? As long as you are willing to cooperate with us, I guarantee that you will live a happy life for the rest of your life."

"Cooperate with you?" Xiao Shunzi deliberately emphasized the word "you".

"Things have come to this point today. I think even if you talk your mouth off, Concubine Shu will not believe you are innocent." The midwife looked like a villain who had succeeded: "To tell you the truth, I am actually Concubine Zhuang's man."

"What?" Xiao Shunzi's pupils shrank rapidly: "How is this possible?"

"What's impossible about this?" The midwife clicked her tongue.

"But aren't Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Shu good sisters?" Xiao Shunzi was stunned.

"Good sisters?" The midwife laughed and shook her head. "Father-in-law is still too young. I have served in the palace for decades and have never seen any good sisters. Even if they are sisters, they will still frame them in order to win favor."

"Ha!" Xiao Shunzi sneered: "It's like you and I have no grudges, but you are framing me?"

The midwife smiled awkwardly: "Father-in-law, you can't blame me. I am just like you, just following your master's orders."

Pooh!

Same as you?

The master and servant are in cahoots with each other, neither of them is a good person.

"Yes! Don't blame you, blame me! It's my fate." Xiao Shunzi gritted his teeth and spoke word by word.

"Eunuch Xiao Shunzi, please stop talking like that." Seeing that persuasion didn't work, the midwife began to play the victim: "I have been in the palace for more than 30 years and have suffered all kinds of grievances. Now that I am old, I just want to make some money and live a free life outside the palace for a few days."

"Even if you want to leave the palace, you can't frame Concubine Shu like this!" Xiao Shunzi said angrily.

"How can you not see clearly, eunuch? I have never seen a concubine who is confined to the cold palace. Don't think that Concubine Shu gave birth to a child. Who knows whether the child will live to grow up? In this palace, if you are not favored, you will die. I am just helping her to get rid of it earlier."

Xiao Shunzi:......

Should he thank her on behalf of Concubine Shu?

"You are really kind-hearted. You are locked up here and can't get out, but you still want to help Concubine Shu to be free." Xiao Shunzi sneered: "Mammy, you should stop deceiving yourself here. If Concubine Zhuang wanted to save you, she would have come to beg for mercy a long time ago. She is just hiding now."

"Madam Zhuangpin didn't hide." The midwife said excitedly, "Someone came to tell us yesterday that if you are willing to cooperate with us, just imitate the cat's meow three times at three o'clock in the morning, two long and one short, and someone will come to pick you up tomorrow."

"Do you have any insider help?" Xiao Shunzi asked immediately.

The midwife was startled: "It is better for the father-in-law not to know some things. When the Concubine Zhuang overthrows the Concubine Shu, we will be released naturally."

"What if I don't want to?" Xiao Shunzi said.

"No!" The midwife's face darkened. "Do you think Concubine Shu will let you go? If you dare to spread what I just said to you, Concubine Zhuang will not let your sister go!"

"You guys..." Xiao Shunzi's fingertips trembled with anger: "How shameless!"

He really wanted to kneel down before their shameless actions.

However, he also admired Concubine Shu's foresight.

He was one step ahead of them and went to protect his sister.

Xiao Shunzi believed in Concubine Shu even more from the bottom of his heart.

"Father-in-law, please think it through carefully," asked the midwife.

"Do I have any choice?" Xiao Shunzi gritted his teeth.
