I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 93: Enduring the bold one

Outside the door, Moxiang glanced at Dong Wu who was still kneeling, and knelt down to greet Xiao Jingfan: "Your Majesty, may you be well."

"Flat body."

Dongwu followed Moxiang and stood up.

Xiao Jingfan glanced at her.

There was no emotion in this glance, but Dong Wu felt as if a mountain was pressing down on her. She was so scared that her legs went weak and she felt that all her little thoughts were seen through by the emperor.

That's right, she came out to pay her respects just now because she wanted to take a gamble.

If she could please His Majesty, she could be transferred to the tea room to serve tea without asking anyone for permission.

Even if you don't serve tea, you can still do some work like grinding ink or folding paper.

She originally expected Shen Chongyi to help her, but Shen Chongyi was suddenly demoted to Concubine Shen. Now she can't even take care of herself, so how can she take care of her?
She has been working as a handyman in Wenhua Palace for three years. She thinks she is good-looking and nimble. Why is it that Chu Liuzheng and Yuzhui can come from behind and stay in the leisurely tea room, and even get some rewards from time to time, while she can only do the hard work of sweeping and cleaning?
She is not reconciled.

She doesn't want to wait any longer!

Seeing Xiao Jingfan was about to leave, Dong Wu bit her tongue and said, "Your servant Dong Wu, I have learned some tea-making skills from Miss Liu Zheng, and I would like to be transferred to the tea room to serve Your Majesty. Please have mercy on me, Your Majesty."

As she spoke, she knelt down again and kowtowed towards Xiao Jingfan's back.

Xiao Jingfan didn't even stop, he stepped over the threshold and went into the house.

Dong Wu looked up, his eyes filled with unconcealable resentment.

She didn't dare to blame the emperor, so she blamed everything on Chu Liuzheng who didn't come out of the room.

Shameless vixen! She has seduced His Majesty to come here several times. When she spreads the news to the harem, this vixen will suffer! !

She supported herself on the ground and was about to stand up, but unexpectedly two young eunuchs suddenly came forward and held her down.

Zhou Yuande said in a shrill voice: "Disobeying the emperor's throne is a capital crime. Your Majesty is lenient and will not bother with you. You will be punished to go to the laundry department to reflect on your mistakes."

Dong Wu was stunned for a moment, then began to struggle violently, shouting out his injustice and begging His Majesty for forgiveness inside the house.

But after shouting twice, his mouth was blocked.

Two young eunuchs grabbed her arms tightly and dragged her to the laundry department.

Dong Wu glared with anger and fear, and his legs rubbed against the ground as he struggled, leaving two long black marks on the ground covered with thin snow.

Seeing this, Moxiang pursed her lips and sighed softly.

Zhou Yuande glanced at her and said, "Miss, you are kind-hearted, but please allow me to say a few words. Some people are not worthy of your kindness."

How could Dong Wu's little thoughts escape his eyes?

Dong Wu has been in the palace for seven years and is considered an old hand in the palace. How could he not understand the palace rules?
His Majesty clearly did not allow it to be announced, so he should have just come out and paid his respects. But he was so stupid as to make a sound. He is truly hopeless.

She even brought Miss Liu Zheng into the conversation, clearly wanting His Majesty to be lenient with her for Miss Liu Zheng's sake. But she didn't think about it. In recent years, apart from Concubine Wen and the newly-appointed Cai Baolin, who had taken the initiative to approach His Majesty had a good ending?
It’s good enough to be alive now.

"Thank you, father-in-law, for the suggestion."

If Zhou Yuande can see it clearly, how can Moxiang not see it?
She sighed, not because of the winter fog, but because of Chu Liuzheng.

Now, Your Majesty cares about Liu Zheng and comes to visit him from time to time. I don't know how many people have resented Liu Zheng. Now that Your Majesty is protecting me, it's fine. But what if Your Majesty takes back this favor one day?
Emperors are all heartless people. Moxiang doesn’t even dare to imagine what kind of situation Chu Liuzheng will face when that time really comes.

She couldn't stop feeling worried and melancholy in her heart.

Inside the house, Chu Liuzheng was completely unaware of Moxiang's worries.

As soon as Xiao Jingfan came in, she was ready to meet the emperor, but for some reason she closed her eyes.

Xiao Jingfan didn't even send anyone to wake her up. He just leisurely sat down on the small stool where Moxiang had originally sat, stretched out his hand and leisurely warmed himself by the fire.

Chu Liuzheng pricked up his ears to listen.

[Why doesn't the tyrant let anyone wake me up? 】

[Should I wake up on my own initiative now? Would that be too fake? ]

[Open your eyes? Don't open your eyes? ]

Chu Liuzheng was so upset that he wanted to tear the petals off. Xiao Jingfan glanced at the motionless bed, curled his lips slightly, and continued to warm himself leisurely by the fire.

【I'd better take a peek secretly. 】

Chu Liuzheng was uneasy because of the quiet room and the quiet tyrant. He couldn't help but quietly open his eyes a little, slightly turned his head and looked towards the bed.

Through the gauze curtain, you can see a man in black clothes sitting beside the bed.

[Fuck! The tyrant is the only one in the room! ]

[No, I am also a person.]

[There are only two of us!!]

Chu Liuzheng was so scared that he closed his eyes again.

[God bless the tyrant and let him go quickly! ]

Xiao Jingfan raised his eyebrows and glanced at the bed.

Didn't she curse happily just now? Now she is afraid. He wants to see how long this woman is going to pretend to sleep.

Xiao Jingfan changed his posture and warmed himself by the fire.

It was quiet outside.

The house was equally silent.

Chu Liuzheng was so nervous...that he almost fell asleep.

[Hey, why doesn't the tyrant leave? Wenhua Hall doesn't lack this little charcoal. ]

[Could it be that the tyrant suddenly regretted giving me these silver charcoals, and was too embarrassed to ask me for money, so he planned to use them all himself? ]

Xiao Jingfan: "..."

I'm not as stingy as you!

[Although it's a bit outrageous, it's not impossible. Last time, the tyrant made Zhu Meiren dance for half a night and didn't want to burn charcoal, so she got sick from the cold.]

Xiao Jingfan: I just forgot!
[Tsk tsk, the tyrant is so concerned about charcoal fire, is it possible that the charcoal purchased by the palace this year is not enough? ]

Chu Liuzheng used his divergent thinking to make bold guesses, then opened the system to carefully verify the information.

[Hmm... there is enough charcoal. But the tyrant was once again made the victim. Luo, the chief steward in charge of purchasing in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, falsely reported the price of charcoal, which was twice as high. All the extra money went into his pockets and those of his accomplices.]

[It is better to work for a tyrant to make money. Just by making a profit from the price difference of buying charcoal, you will be rich enough.]

Xiao Jingfan opened the little death notebook in his heart and wrote down "General Manager Luo of the Ministry of Internal Affairs".

Chu Liuzheng was still sighing.

[It is true that the bold will die of overeating and the timid will die of starvation. Isn’t it because I am too timid to be greedy that I am so poor now? If I were a little bolder and had lower moral standards, I would have saved enough money for my retirement in several lifetimes. Why would I have to work so hard?]

Xiao Jingfan: "..."

You're quite sorry.

[Why doesn't the tyrant leave? Is it comfortable for a tall person to sit on a small stool? ]

Xiao Jingfan: I feel uncomfortable.

But the rebellious emperor sometimes just doesn't want to do what a certain woman wants.

Chu Liuzheng felt an itch on her back while lying there, and she wanted to rub it, but she was worried that her movements would be too big and Xiao Jingfan would notice her, and accuse her of "pretending to sleep and deceiving the king."

[If you don’t leave now, I will… continue eating melons! ]

Trying hard to ignore the itch on his back, Chu Liuzheng opened the system and found the half melon he had just eaten.

[Let me take a look. What happens next in the secret passage is... After the pursuers left, Princess Mingxia believed the story that the real princess and her childhood sweetheart eloped, and took the four of them to a villa in the suburbs to hide from the public.]

[Hmm? This statement is full of mistakes and omissions. With your intelligence, isn't it too quick for you to believe it? ]
