Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 17 The King's Heart (2)
"Hmph, you were so strong just now, why did you turn into a little white rabbit? You girl." Mingong felt a little funny, and couldn't help covering his mouth.

"Your Majesty, you don't want to play tricks. If your Majesty refuses to release the adoptive father, the servants will stay here." Bao Si said angrily.

"Hahaha, since you said that, then I'm going to play tricks on you. Let's see how long you can hold on. Xinyue accepts the order and supervises Princess Baoguo to continue kneeling. She will not go back to her bedroom until tomorrow morning!" Ming Gong said with a handsome look. Scan Xinyue.

"Your Majesty, the slaves are not convinced." Bao Si pursed her lips.

"What? Want to be coquettish? But, you said that you are not Baogui's own daughter. Since you are not the real princess of Baoguo, why should the widow pay you?" Minggong smiled slyly.

"But your majesty, even if the slaves are not the daughters of the adoptive father, the slaves still have dignity. Uncle Bao loves the people and works diligently for the villagers every day. These Sis are all in his eyes. Ah Si can represent Baoguo It's from the hearts of the elders." Bao Si hurriedly replied.

"Well, but the widow is the emperor, so he can do whatever he wants, if the widow wants to renege on his debt and not let go of your adoptive father, do you dare to have any objections?" Ming Gong said with a smile.

"Then, are all the people in the palace unreasonable? What happened today, the slave girl's good sister, A Xi, was almost punished for just complaining. In the end, the slave girl who was killed was made to kneel here for a whole day! Your Majesty, if you keep going back on your word, that servant will really die!" Bao Si said angrily.

"Well, you little princess! If I say something to you, you will reply. I really think that I won't get angry. Xinyue, immediately take Princess Baoguo to Huayue Palace and think about it behind closed doors!" Ming Gong pretended to be angry, and threw his hands behind his back, flicking his sleeves. and go.

"Oh, princess, why are you doing this? Your majesty just exempted you from punishment because he loves you very much, but you just annoyed him. What should we do next?" Xinyue carefully helped her up. Bao Si complained.

"Sister Xinyue, am I just not convinced? As soon as I entered the palace, I was bullied and suffered with Axi. Besides, I came to Beijing to save Uncle Bao. If I didn't defend Uncle Bao just now, I'm afraid I won't have a chance." Bao Si pouted.

"Oh, it was finally a false alarm. The princess was too cold just now, but when she got angry just now, her little face turned red again." Axi smiled.

Let me also explain that Emperor Gong, since dismissing Baosi's master and servant, has been at a loss all the way, because the complicated government affairs of the previous dynasty have almost made him physically and mentally exhausted, but the quarrel with Baosi just now made him feel inexplicably Feeling the long-lost joy and childishness, he raised his head and knocked on the early plum Qiongzhi wrapped in crystal clear ice and snow with a little pleasure. The bursts of fragrance made him feel green, as if the plum blossom had turned into A stubborn face.

"Your Majesty, the tribute girl just now has made you angry. Please tell me, how should I punish her?" the cautious Xiao Dezi asked in a low voice, holding Fuchen in his cage.

"Xiao Dezi, immediately convey the will of the widow, release Baohou Baogui from the prison, and let him go home." Ming Gong couldn't help feeling relieved in his heart, and ordered Xiao Dezi loudly.

"Your Majesty! You?" Xiao Dezi was speechless in fright. "Slave dog, what are you talking about, hurry up and go!" Minggong said happily.

Huayue Palace is said to be a beautiful palace built by King Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty for his beloved concubine according to the terrain and Fengshui. Although the palace is not big, it has mountains and water, and flowers are gorgeous, especially the wintersweet blooming in severe cold. Si felt relaxed and happy.

"Sister Xinyue, what does Long Live Lord mean? Why is our princess sent to such an exquisite palace, and this crime will not be treated so preferentially?" Axi teased the little thrush bird on the pearl tassel, and opened her eyes. asked with two big childish eyes.

Xinyue snickered and pulled Axi closer, and said softly, "Silly girl, I see, your princess got a blessing in disguise this time!"

"Huh? Sister, what is a blessing in disguise?" Axi stared blankly at Xinyue who was smiling like a flower, and couldn't help pretending to be dumb.

Chaoyang Palace, the twinkling palace lanterns are like the gorgeous night sky, dotted with stars.Ming Gong lay on the dragon couch, put down the ink brush, spread his hands and yawned.

"Long live, it's the end of time, are you going to the Chuxiu Palace of Master Jin?" the maid on duty reminded Ming Gong in a charming voice.

"Well, you were sent by Imperial Concubine Jin, what are you master doing now?" Ming Gong asked with a smile.

"Back to Lord Long Live, Master Jin is summoning Princess Baoguo in Huayue Palace." The maid replied softly.

"What?" The court lady's answer exploded on Ming Gong's head like a thunderbolt. "She is an imperial concubine, what is she doing with Princess Baoguo?" Ming Gong asked.

"This, Your Majesty, I don't know about this servant." The maid timidly knelt down and said.

"You stay here now, don't leave without the widow's order!" Mingong ordered sharply.

The gate of Chaoyang Palace was opened, and Ming Gong realized that something was wrong with Huayue Palace, so he hurriedly boarded the dragon chariot and rushed to Huayue Palace with Xiao Dezi and half of the guards.

"Who spared Princess Baoguo from kneeling on the jade steps today?" Concubine Jin's stern question came from Huayue Palace.

"It's the king's decree!" Xinyue argued kindly.

"Counterfeit! Princess Baoguo, as a tribute daughter, has committed a crime of disrespect by arbitrarily staying in the Li Palace built by the late emperor. Immediately put them in jail!" Imperial Concubine Jin ordered in an arrogant tone.

"Master Jin, this is indeed the king's intention!" Xinyue replied softly with a smile on her face.

"Presumptuous! This palace said that your coquettish edicts are coquettish imperial edicts!" Imperial Concubine Jin couldn't listen to any excuses at all.

"But, empress, this servant has the king's jade card!" Xinyue saw that it was not her head, and hurriedly took out the jade card from her skirt.

Imperial Concubine Jin just glanced contemptuously, and said coldly: "I said you stole it, you must not refute it! Otherwise, I can use any family law!"

"Mother, since Xinyue entered the palace, she has always been obedient to you. You should trust your servant." Xinyue knelt down and said in a tone.

"Xinyue, don't think that this palace dares to kill you! Come on, Xinyue violated the palace rules first, and hit [-] back flowers first!" Concubine Jin did not let go at all, but sternly slammed down on the eunuch behind her. Order.

"Your Majesty! The slaves are wronged!" Xinyue was pushed to the ground by several strong eunuchs, and the ruthless whips raged on Xinyue's palace clothes in an instant. Soon, the scene was full of blood and flesh.

"Stop! You villains!" Bao Si shouted desperately, being blocked by A Xi.
