" I have something to ask you!" the concubine said in a serious tone.
" Yes, concubine! Tell me!" said the maid.
" Why was Ah Lam moved from the Royal Palace?" the concubine asked the maid in a questionable tone.
" I don't know!" the maid answered.
" Do you know where the orders came from?" the concubine asked the maid in a questionable tone.
" The orders came from his majesty, the king" the maid answered.
" The king? One last question, if you please! Where is she staying now?" the concubine asked the maid in a questionable tone.
" The Dark Pavillon!" the maid answered.
" What did you just say? The Dark Pavillon?" Concubine Chu Hua reacted shockingly.
" What's wrong, Concubine Chu Hua? Is everything alright?" the maid asked the concubine in a questionable tone.
