Because Lin Suisui had instructed them previously) Yuan Niang didn’t arrange heavy work for the three girls. She only asked her mentor to arrange some simple cleaning tasks for them.

Therefore, when Lin Suisui asked to see them at this moment, Yuan Niang made arrangements very quickly. As soon as Lin Suisui went upstairs to the private room, Yuan Niang brought the three girls in.

“I asked when they came over. The eldest of the three girls is nine years old, and the youngest is only three and a half years old.” Yuan Niang told Lin Suisui about the three girls as soon as she entered. “They said that their grandmother despised them for being girls, so she hasn’t given them names yet. At home, she only addresses them as oldest child, second child, and third child.”

Lin Suisui reached out and waved at the three little girls. After gesturing for the three of them to come to her side, she took their pulses one by one. As soon as she checked, her expression became solemn.

“Have you guys been to the Snake Temple before?” After Lin Suisui retracted her hand, she asked the eldest girl.

“We’ve been there three times. Grandma brought us there.” The eldest daughter’s voice was soft. Although she sounded a little timid, she explained the matter very clearly. “At first, she asked us to kneel and kowtow. Later on, when we went again, that woman asked us to drink that talisman water. She said that it could help our mother give birth to a boy.”

“That water doesn’t taste good.” The second child, who was beside her eldest daughter, naturally heard her sister’s story. She raised her head slightly and looked at Lin Suisui as she added in a low voice, “It reeked. I felt like vomiting after drinking it.”

“How many times have you drunk it?” Lin Suisui patted the top of the third child’s head and suppressed her anger as she continued to ask the girls with a smile.

“Twice,” the eldest daughter replied straightforwardly. “The second time, the second child didn’t want to drink it anymore. Grandma was even angry and scolded her for most of the day. When we returned home, she didn’t even let her eat dinner.”

“What about your mother? Did she go to the Snake Temple to drink strange things too?” Yuan Niang, who was at the side, also sensed that something was wrong and quickly asked her daughter.

The eldest daughter shook her head and replied softly, “No. The woman in the temple said that my mother isn’t fated with the true god yet. She told her to go home and continue to worship piously.”

“Alright, you’re all good children. During this period of time, come to the medical center every day to work and listen to Yuan Niang’s instructions, okay?”

After Lin Suisui understood the circumstances of the matter, she chose not to mention it for the time being, for fear that she would alert the enemy.

After all, there were three children standing here. If they leaked the news, it wTould be difficult to wipe out the faction behind them.

After the three girls were brought down by Yuan Niang again, Lin Suisui turned to Heka and asked, “Did you see anything?”

Heka lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment before answering calmly, “You’re right. These three children are indeed under the tame head technique.

Someone from the secret camp belonging to the Siamese royal family probably came.

I’m not putting in a good word for the eldest prince. It’s just that the eldest prince’s attention had always been on the northern barbarians, so he didn’t agree with attacking our empire at the same time.

“To be honest, the only person who has always wanted to attack our empire is Her Highness, Princess Corgila.”

“But it doesn’t make sense!” Lin Suisui put down the teacup in her hand. She was still a little dubious about Heka s analysis, so she said, “If the person who planned this is really Princess Corgila, why did she ask her subordinates to use the tame head technique on these children?”

It couldn’t be that she was just bored, right?

“Princess Corgila has never been in good health.” Heka knew the Siam royal family well. Upon hearing Lin Suisui’s question, he quickly continued to explain to her, “All along, she has relied on the secret technique provided by the imperial preceptor to maintain her health.

To put it bluntly, the secret technique was to use the tame head technique to seize the vitality of healthy people in order to restore the princess’ health.

As the princess grew older, the conditions to satisfy the secret technique became more and more stringent.

Now, only young children like them can be used to support her health.”

Heka’s words made Lin Suisui, Bai Guo, and the others, who were standing around, reveal ugly expressions. This was really a plan that killed two birds with one stone!

Firstly, as Heka had said, these children could be used to make secret medicine for Princess Corgila so that she could live a healthy life. Secondly, using the tame head technique on such a large scale to harm children would definitely cause panic and uneasiness in the people over time!

At that time, the people left behind by Princess Corgila can take the opportunity to cause trouble and disrupt the stability at the border…

She had to inform Lu Ze quickly.

T hinking of this, Lin Suisui didn’t delay any longer. She immediately stood up and asked Su Le about Lu Ze s whereabouts. She had to rush over now to tell him about this.

Actually, what Lin Suisui didn’t know was that Lu Ze was also very busy.

Something had happened to Nina, who was imprisoned in the Imperial City government office.

Actually, Pei Qian had always been on guard against Nina. However, even so, she still took advantage of the situation. If not for the fact that the person in charge of delivering the food was vigilant, she would have really taken the opportunity to spread the news.

This matter angered Pei Qian greatly. Not only did he punish the bailiffs who were monitoring Nina, but he also asked Qian He to arrange for the executioner to break the tendons in Nina’s hands and feet.

“I really underestimated this woman!” After Pei Qian sat in front of Lu Ze, he drank two cups of tea in a row. Then, he whispered to Lu Ze about the reason for this incident yesterday. “I originally fed her a drug every night!

However, she pretended to faint last night. The bailiff guarding her was young and actually felt that this woman was pitiful, so he thought that it was fine to just feed her the drug when she woke up!”

“Are you punishing Qian He too?” It was rare for Lu Ze to see Pei Qian so angry, so he didn’t add fuel to the fire. Instead, he refilled Pei Qian’s cup of tea.

“He’s incompetent and deserves punishment!” Pei Qian snorted. He didn’t deny Lu Ze’s guess, but he had his own persistence and opinion about punishing Qian He.

“1 entrusted this matter to him, so he knew better than anyone the importance of this person! In the end, he arranged for such an incompetent bailiff to guard me!

Shouldn’t he be blamed for this dereliction of duty?

I’m just teaching him a lesson so that he can be more reliable in the future.. Your Highness, you don’t have to plead for him!”
