Chapter 2474 A Furniture Workshop

Ashy had been observing the routine of the Servant girl for days now.

She knew where she usually went and what tasks were assigned to her. The Imperial Kitchens made dishes of various kinds that needed many unique ingredients. Among such there were foods that needed to be grilled or smoked which needed different kinds of woods.

Her being asked to bring wood was rather common and she would refuel the smoker which needed special kinds of fragrant woods that provided special flavors to the food.

Of course, the Imperial Kitchen had their own store of these kinds of woods and were kept within its grounds for easy access.

Ashy had seen the Servant girl go there before too and knew where it was. Thus when she skipped past it, she was rather surprised.

The Servant Girl seemingly left the Imperial Grounds, without informing anyone which was very shocking as the punishment for it was harsh. After all the imperial Grounds was a highly protected place and entry and exit through it needed to be watched at all times.

The location that the servant girl exited from was also not the usual gate, but rather a secret tunnel that was hidden in a Garden Shed. 'She's definitely doing something suspicious.' Ashy knew for sure now. There was no way a servant would be taking such a secret route without it being for some nefarious purpose. She became fully alert and watched every little movement of the Servant girl as well as her surroundings.

Ashy memorized the path that the Servant Girl took as well as the method she used to open the secret tunnel.

In the Garden Shed, she opened a drawer that was attached to a table and pressed a button underneath it made a faint clicking sound. After doing that, the Servant Girl placed her hand on a very specific brick on the floor and imbued her Qi into it.
