Seeing that the elder sister was still hesitating, the boy became anxious: "Sister, what are you still hesitating about?"

"Your master didn't want us to live at all. If it weren't for Lord Zhou, my mother and I would have died long ago. And you, you took it all on for her, but what did you get? Such a treacherous person is not worthy of your loyalty!"

"Sister, think about me, think about mother, don't be stubborn anymore, tell me everything, okay?"

The little maid took a deep breath, raised her eyes to look at Zhou Chen on the side, and said in a deep voice: "I want to talk to Master Zhou alone."

Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows, glanced at the young man, and said, "Wait outside. I want to talk to your sister alone."

The young man stood there without moving, looking at Zhou Chen with some vigilance.

Zhou Chen said with a half-smile: "Why, are you afraid that I will torture your sister? Boy, if I wanted to, your sister wouldn't be as lively as she is now."

Besides, what can this young man do?

The boy looked at Zhou Chen, then at his elder sister, and finally obeyed and walked out.

After the young man left, the little palace maid looked at Zhou Chen again, knelt down in front of him with a plop, and said in a deep voice: "Thank you, Lord Zhou, for saving my life. If it weren't for you, my mother and brother would have been killed by others long ago."

Zhou Chen: "You don't have to thank me. It was the young prince who reminded me. Otherwise, by the time I got there, I'm afraid the flowers would have been cold."

The little palace maid was stunned for a moment, then said, "Then we have to thank Master Zhou."

Zhou Chen didn't argue with her about this, he just said: "You asked your brother to go out, what do you want to talk to me alone?"

The little maid pursed her lips and looked up at Zhou Chen: "Master Zhou, if I tell you everything, can you really keep my brother and mother safe as promised?"

Zhou Chen: "Your brother doesn't know who is standing behind me. You have been in the palace for so many years, don't you know?"

The little palace maid stopped talking.

How could she not know.

Everyone in the world knows that His Majesty is standing behind Zhou Chen, and his opinions probably represent His Majesty's opinions.

He said that if he can protect his family, then he will definitely be able to protect his family.

The little palace maid was silent for a moment, and finally, as if she had given up everything, she said to Zhou Chen: "I have another unreasonable request."

Zhou Chen: "You say."

"After this incident, I am afraid I can no longer serve in the palace. I beg Lord Zhou to show mercy and let me leave the palace after this incident is resolved, so that I can live a peaceful life with my family."

The little palace maid looked a little pale, and said softly: "If I were in the palace, no one would let me go."

When Zhou Chen heard this, he also sighed.

If her master survived this incident, she would not let the maid who betrayed her go. If her master died, other masters in the harem would not dare to use this treacherous maid, fearing that she would follow in the footsteps of her former master. In short, this maid had no way to survive in the palace.

Zhou Chen thought about it, and then said: "If you tell the truth, I will give you this guarantee, so that you and your family can leave the palace and live an ordinary life."

When the little palace maid heard this, her eyes instantly turned red, and she knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Thank you, Master Zhou, thank you, Master Zhou, for giving me a way to live."

After that, he looked up at Zhou Chen and said, "I will tell you whatever you want to know, Mr. Zhou."
