Chapter: 109
She put the doll down and went through Astelle’s dress.
Even her dress and underwear, or the child’s clothes were scrutinized, but still, nothing came out.
The maid put the basket down and went to the room Astelle used.
When she entered the room, she opened the luggage bag placed by the bed, and opened the box in it.
She checked the medicine box as well as instructed in advance.
She carefully touched the herbs in the box, and she opened all the vials to smell and taste.
Then she walked around the room and looked here and there.
With little furniture, Astelle had no place to hide.
The maid put her hand under the bed and even behind the dressing table and touched it, but there was nothing.
The old maid eventually rearranged the luggage, picked up the basket, and walked out into the hallway.
There was a knight guarding the door in the corridor.
The maid went to the knight and said quietly, “I looked over everything as ordered, but there were no special medicines. There are no medicines for dangerous illnesses or chronic diseases, they are all common cold medicines and headache medicines. There are some herbs, but……”
The maid frowned on her wrinkled eye for a moment.
She said the medicines in the bottle were nothing special, but the herbs were a little peculiar.
It wasn’t a common herb used in ordinary remedies, and it was a medicinal herb that was hard to find.
But she couldn’t figure out what Astelle was trying to use just by looking at the herbs.
‘Well, it’s not poisonous anyway.’
The old pharmacist disguised as a maid thought so simply.
“There are no poisonous or dangerous kinds of medicinal herbs that hurt people either.”
Suddenly she was ordered to look at the medicines that belonged to someone in the emperor’s party, so she was nervous about what a huge conspiracy was hiding.
She wondered if there was even a traitor who was trying to poison the emperor, but the person was a calm-looking young lady caring for a child.
She was calm, graceful, and seemed to have a very noble status.
She looked kind and friendly, even caring for a child.
No matter how much she looked at, she didn’t seem to be able to hide the suspicious medicines.
“I’ve done my job, so I’ll stop and go back.”
