I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 67: The pain in my hands won’t kill me, but social death can really kill me
"Your Majesty is here!"

Xiao Jingfan strode into the main hall of Changchun Palace.

"Your Majesty, may you be well." Queen Zhong and the other concubines stood up to greet him and bowed.

Xiao Jingfan sat down in the main seat, "Everyone, stand up."

The concubines stood up and sat down one after another.

Zhu Hanyu looked at the emperor sitting at the top of the table and nervously tugged at the handkerchief in his hand.

Your Majesty should have seen her, right?
Qiu Sui brought hot tea, and Empress Zhong took it and held it in front of Xiao Jingfan. "Your Majesty, you are here now. Have you heard about the incident in the Imperial Garden?"

"I went to the Wanshou Palace to pay my respects to my mother. I heard her talking about this matter, so I came to take a look." Xiao Jingfan took a sip of the tea, looked at Queen Zhong and asked, "Have you found out?"

Empress Zhong showed a look of compassion and sighed softly, "We only found out that the young eunuch was called Xiao Xuanzi, and he had only been in the palace for two months. He had been serving in the cold palace and died before he fell into the well. But there was a young eunuch who bumped into Concubine Zhu in the imperial garden. Concubine Zhu should talk to Your Majesty about this matter."

Xiao Jingfan turned his head to look, and met a pair of affectionate eyes.

? ?
He frowned, "Since the Queen asked you to speak, then speak."

“Yes.” Zhu Hanyu stood up and bowed before saying, “I came back from Wenhua Palace and heard from my maid Caizhu that the red plum blossoms in the Imperial Garden have bloomed. I have always liked red plum blossoms, so I wanted to go to the Imperial Garden to take a look…”

Zhu Hanyu told the story in detail, describing how he entered the Imperial Garden, how he was bumped into by the young eunuch, and how he discovered the body by chance. It sounded like a story.

Xiao Jingfan: Although it is a bit long-winded, the logic is still clear.

He asked, "Did you see clearly the little eunuch who bumped into you?"

Zhu Hanyu shook her head: "I was almost knocked down by the collision, and I didn't have time to see who it was, only Caizhu saw it."

Hearing this, Xiao Jingfan waved his hand to let her sit down, and looked at the palace maid standing behind her: "Are you Caizhu?"

Caizhu immediately came out and knelt down, "Your servant Caizhu greets Your Majesty, may Your Majesty be well and safe."

Xiao Jingfan stared at her, "Did you see the little eunuch's appearance clearly?"

"Your Majesty, the eunuch lowered his head, so I couldn't see his face clearly. But..." Caizhu raised her hand and touched the back of his ear, "He has a round red birthmark, about the size of a thumb."

Empress Zhong continued, "I have already sent Gao Yongfu to investigate, but there are so many eunuchs in the palace that it will take some time to check them all."

Xiao Jingfan nodded: "In this case, the matter will be handed over to the Queen for a detailed investigation. The thief is arrogant and his behavior is abominable. We must find out the result."

"I accept the decree."

Xiao Jingfan was considerate of her pregnancy and thought for a moment before saying, "You shouldn't worry too much right now. If you can't handle it, let Concubine Shu and Concubine Chun help you out."

"Thank you for your understanding, Your Majesty." Empress Zhong smiled at Consort Shu and Consort Chun, who were sitting below her. "I am pregnant, and I have been feeling a little sleepy and weak lately. You two sisters are smart, so I'd be grateful if you could help me."

Unexpectedly, a big pie suddenly fell from the sky. Shufei was fine, but Chun Zhaoyi was hit so hard that she felt a little dizzy.

Is she going to help the Queen manage the six palaces?
This is a right that even Concubine Rong does not have!

The two stood up and bowed gracefully, "I will do my best to assist your majesty and live up to your trust."

Empress Zhong smiled gently and said, "I feel relieved with your two sisters' words."

Seeing that everything was arranged properly, Xiao Jingfan did not stay any longer and stood up and said, "I have something else to do in the morning, so I am leaving."

The concubines stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."

After leaving Changchun Palace, Zhou Yuande bowed and asked: "Your Majesty, can we go back to Wenhua Palace directly?"

Xiao Jingfan got on the sedan chair, thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Yunyuan."

"only."

Zhou Yuande shouted, "Go to Nongyun Garden!"

*
Nongyun Garden.

Chu Liuzheng was getting anxious.

Urgent.

Caiyue had been away from the Imperial Household Department for a long time and Chu Liuzheng was worried that something had happened to her, but he couldn't find any related gossip after checking the system several times.

If Caiyue didn't come back, she would have to go to the toilet on her own.

Thinking about the hand that hurts even if I don't touch it, if I really use force... Chu Liuzheng knows how painful it will be just by thinking about it. [I really want to go to the toilet! Please, someone come and save the child! I really can't hold it any longer! ]

Chu Liuzheng tried her best to hold it in for a while. Between wetting the bed and hurting her hands, she chose the hurting hands.

After all, no matter how much her hand hurts, it won't kill her. But if she dies socially because of bed-wetting, she really doesn't want to live anymore!
"Hiss—hiss—ah!" Chu Liuzheng screamed as she propped herself up on the bed. Even though she tried her best to support herself with her elbows, it still pulled on the wound, causing her to cry naturally out of pain.

[When my injury is healed, I will definitely develop eight-pack abs so I don’t have to rely on my hands to get out of bed anymore.]

Just as I turned around and was about to get out of bed, the closed door was suddenly pushed open.

Chu Liuzheng looked up and saw it was Moxiang.

【Woo woo woo! Benefactor! 】

【I finally don’t have to pee my pants anymore! 】

Seeing her in tears, Moxiang thought something had happened and asked hurriedly, "What happened?"

"I want to go to the toilet." Chu Liuzheng didn't care about anything else. If she held it in any longer, she would really die.

"Let me help you." Moxiang walked over quickly and helped Chu Liuzheng up.

With his bladder freed, Chu Liuzheng finally felt relieved.

She then remembered to ask, "Why did my sister come back suddenly?"

Now Moxiang should be on duty in Wenhua Hall.

Moxiang: “…”

If I say that it was His Majesty who sent someone to call me back, would you believe it?
She thought Chu Liuzheng was in Nongyun Garden because of his extremely anxious look.

She was so scared that her heart almost jumped out of her chest and her legs went limp.

Forcefully forcing a smile, Moxiang said, "I was worried about you so I came back to see you."

She stared at Chu Liuzheng, as if she wanted to see a flower on Chu Liuzheng's face.

Chu Liuzheng's scalp tingled when she stared at him, "Sister, why are you looking at me like this?"

"Nothing," Moxiang shook her head, "I just feel that I might be wrong."

——It is said that rumors are not credible. Considering what happened today, the rumor that Liu Zheng is favored by His Majesty is quite credible!
Chu Liuzheng felt that this was incomprehensible, but seeing that Moxiang had no intention of saying more, he did not ask any further questions.

At this time, outside Nongyun Garden.

Xiao Jingfan had already ordered the imperial carriage to leave, and he went for a stroll around the Moon Pond first. When he figured that Chu Liuzheng was ready, he walked back and stood at the entrance of Nong Yunyuan.

Everyone was confused.

Xiao Anzi turned his head to look at his master and asked, "Is His Majesty coming in or not?"
Zhou Yuande didn't understand it either, but he felt that his Majesty's homesick look was quite eye-catching.

The urgent order just now was to call Moxiang over in a hurry, but in the end, Moxiang was only allowed to go in and take a look first.

He was becoming increasingly confused by His Majesty's recent actions.

The eunuch was melancholy.

Xiao Jingfan didn't want to stand at the door either, but wasn't he worried that he would run into something embarrassing after going in?

Damn woman, she didn’t even tell me whether it was okay or not. Is he going in now or not?

Fortunately, Moxiang came out in time to report, "Your Majesty, everything is fine with Liu Zheng."

Xiao Jingfan nodded and walked towards Nong Yun Garden.

"Miss Moxiang, please go back to Wenhua Palace first." Zhou Yuande left an instruction and hurriedly followed Xiao Jingfan.

Xiao Anzi and others also hurried to follow.

Looking at the exceptionally tall and slender figure surrounded by the crowd, Moxiang couldn't help but sigh softly.

——Is the emperor’s preference good or bad for Liu Zheng?
