Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"My lord, in this way, the recovery of Yanyun is just around the corner!"

"Yes! Just around the corner! Hahaha" Defang was very happy, "Baili, order the dining room to add meat, vegetables and wine to the sergeants in the Fuzhong today, and celebrate the border victory!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Defang walked through the main hall and said, "Baili, order the garden to prepare tea, and then go and ask the empress to come over."

"Yes, my lord." Baili ran to make arrangements, Defang hummed a little song and walked straight to the garden. As soon as she entered the stone gate of the garden, she heard some noise, so she walked over quickly, and was startled when she passed by. A group of maidservants anxiously shouted to stop beating, Defang turned her head, and saw Wei Xian riding on a small servant, punching with a raised fist, next to Weiling and a little girl crying, Defang just wanted to stop drinking , suddenly a person ran over to hug Weixian, but Weixian punched that person in the face, Weixian seemed to be stunned for a moment, Defang was shocked, and ran forward to hug Weixian away." Weixian! What are you doing!"

Seeing that it was Defang, Weixian was a little confused, "Mmm...Father...Wang..."

"What are you doing! How can you beat Brother Cheng!"

"Baby...not..."

"It's nothing!" Defang put down Wei Xian, "Stand on the side!" Then he ran to help the person who was beaten up. He really wasn't an outsider. It was Tian Cheng, the 12-year-old son of Tian Gu who was recognized by Defang as his adopted son. Defang looked at Tian Cheng and saw him covering his eyes, "Cheng'er, what's wrong with your eyes? My lord, take a look."

"Cheng'er is fine, don't worry, my lord." Tian Cheng rubbed his eyes and opened them, but they were a little red. Defang hurriedly shouted to the servants and maids around him, "What are you doing in a daze! Hurry up and help Cheng'er go back to rest, and then invite the national players to go over." !"

Only then did everyone relax, "Yes, yes"

Defang hurriedly hugged Weiling who was crying, "Ling'er, Ling'er is not crying, the father is here, it's all right, be good"

After comforting Weiling, Defang asked Tian Cheng and Weiling to be taken away. Defang looked at the servant who was beaten. At this time, a little girl cried and supported him, "Brother...Brother..."

Defang walked over and knelt down, supporting the servant's back with her arms, "How are you, child?"

The waiter didn't know where it hurt or was afraid, but he was crying. Defang looked at his face and arms, and found that his browbones were swollen, his face was blue, and his arms were red. Touch his face, "Child, does it hurt?"

"Um...um..." The little maid was crying, and the little girl next to her was also crying. Defang looked at her, "Son, are you his sister?"

"Um...yes...brother..."

"Are you... the servants and maidservants in the palace?"

"Hmm..." The little girl nodded

At this time, Baili ran over and saw that Defang was supporting the servant while Weixian was standing aside, Baili quickly knelt down to support Weixian and looked around, "Second Highness, I heard that you have something to do. What's wrong?"

Defang looked at Baili, "Leave him alone! Come here."

Baili looked at Weixian, and the pitiful Weixian also looked at Baili, Baili could only stroke his back, "Second Highness, I'll go first."

Baili walked to Defang, and Defang asked, "Baili, these two children belong to our palace?"

Baili looked at the servant and the girl, "Yes, my lord, they are the newly recruited servant, his name is Li Xiaojiang, and this is her sister Wang Meijia."

"Are they the siblings you mentioned?"

"Yes, my lord."

"This... how old are they?"

"Xiaojiang is 8 years old and her sister is 6 years old"

Defang frowned and looked at Baili, "Baili, the king asked you to find a 14-year-old servant, why did you find such a young child? Who else did you find?"

"Also... no one... and... 9 years old, 10 years old and... 12 years old..."

"You...are you illiterate or hard of hearing?"

"My lord...I...this...actually...there is a reason..."

"Let's talk about this later." Defang looked at Li Xiaojiang, "Son, how are you doing? Does your body still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore..." The waiter shook his head, "Yes...I...was wrong..."

"Wrong? What's going on? Why did Wei Xian, the Second Highness, want to beat you?"

"Because... because..." Li Xiaojiang looked at Weixian, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to say anything. Defang turned his head and said, "Weixian, tell me, why did you beat him?"

Wei Xian pointed at Li Xiaojiang, "Father, he is the one who bullies my sister!"

"What? Bully who?"

"Bullying my sister" Wei Xian pouted a little bit aggrievedly, "My sister has already knocked her hand, so she is crying."

Defang looked at Li Xiaojiang, "Is that so? You? Bullying the little princess?"

"me..."

"My lord..." the little girl Wang Meijia said, "Brother... didn't bully the little princess..."

Defang reached out to wipe her tears with her hand, and supported her shoulder, "Be good, don't be afraid, it's okay, tell the prince, what's going on?"
