Duke Xian glared at his two daughters.

Qin Jingshu lowered her head in fear under her father's pressure.

But Niu Niu was not afraid of him at all and stared back with her big innocent eyes.

"Niuniu, be obedient!" Duke Xianguo scolded disobedient children as he did at home.

Even the most unruly Qin Er will become well-behaved under his eyes.

But Niu Niu seemed completely unaware of the oppressive atmosphere in the air.

The little girl just missed Gu Mingda very much in her heart, thinking that if her father were here, he would definitely not force her on these small things.

Qian Rongsheng felt a little distressed when he saw the little girl looking like this, and looked at the emperor beside him as if asking for help.

The emperor was playing with the string of beads in his hand, as if he didn't notice anything was wrong around him.

"Your Majesty is willing to take you on an outing. This is your blessing." Duke Xian said.

Niu Niu curled her lips and still insisted on her opinion: "I don't want to go anywhere."

Duke Xian frowned, worried that the emperor was on the side, and some words he could not say were too unpleasant.

After thinking for a moment, he took Niuniu's wrist and walked to the side room next to him, intending to reprimand the child in private.

But Niuniu was very resistant to him, so Duke Xian had no choice but to increase his strength by three points.

Duke Xian pulled the person across the threshold, but before he could cross it completely, his whole body suddenly fell to the ground uncontrollably, his feet tripped over the threshold, and his head hit the ground hard.

"Master Guo!" Zhuangtou saw this situation and screamed in surprise.

Zhuangzi's other servants were also frightened to death.

Duke Xian was helped to stand up from the ground top-heavy. He reached out and touched his forehead, and immediately felt a bright red wet patch.

"Blood..." Duke Xianguo felt his eyes turning black. He couldn't remember the last time he suffered such a serious injury.

"Find the doctor quickly!" Zhuangtou urged.

Although Duke Xian was worried about his condition, he did not bother to rest. Instead, he immediately looked back at the emperor behind him.

Therefore, he did not miss the flash of schadenfreude in Qian Rongsheng's eyes.

The emperor had a dark face, looked at Duke Xian, and then at Niu Niu. After a long time, he said: "Since Zhuangzi wants to keep guests, there is no need to go out for an outing. Stay and see if there is anything good in Zhuangzi." place.”

Duke Xian didn't know that his injury was related to the outing, but he felt relieved at this moment.

Niu Niu was feeling the pressure from him earlier, and he also felt the pressure from the emperor. The emperor's eyes were always on his back as if they were real, seeming to be driving him to force Niu Niu.

"Go and drive all the peacocks and deer in the village for the two young ladies to enjoy." Duke Xian ordered the village head while enduring his dizziness.

Zhuangtou nodded and was about to give instructions to others. He himself wanted to take the opportunity to serve and please Duke Xian.

Duke Xian could only add helplessly: "Go and make arrangements in person, be sure to take good care of the distinguished guests, and let others take care of me."

Zhuangtou had no choice but to agree.

But at this moment Niu Niu suddenly said: "I want to go home."

Duke Xian felt a headache again. He couldn't understand. Being favored by the emperor was obviously a blessing that no one else could ask for. Why was Niu Niu so resistant?

He would not think about it from Niu Niu's point of view, whether the emperor had done something that frightened Niu Niu. Instead, he blamed his daughter countless times in his heart for not knowing how to appreciate others.

Duke Xian Guo said with an unhappy face: "Why are you going back when you have just arrived? The Gu family will think that I bullied you."

Niu Niu still stared at him with her clear black and white eyes, and said without any hesitation: "If you don't let me go, you are bullying me."

When Duke Xian heard this, he was so angry that he was about to smoke.

Without Mrs. Xian Guo standing by as the bad guy, he faced Niu Niu alone, feeling that all the words that Mrs. Xian Guo had scolded Niu Niu in the past had become true at this moment.

What about "wild children raised by country people", "ignoramus" and "no manners".

Duke Xian thought about what he had asked someone to inquire before, and the results he got were that Niu Niu was a rare well-behaved and sensible child. Looking at Niu Niu's unruly appearance now, he felt that even Qin Er was more sensible than her.

"I am your biological father. Am I still not in control of your affairs? Why did I bully you? Did I beat you or scold you?" Duke Xianguo asked.

"Bullying does not necessarily mean beating or scolding. I feel uncomfortable and scared. This place makes me breathless." Niu Niu said confidently.

The little girl said she was scared, but Duke Xian didn't see a trace of fear on her face. Instead, he was almost pissed off by her.

Duke Xian had no way to deal with her, so he could only use dragging words: "You stay here first, at least until I bandage the wound on your head."

When Niuniu saw the bloody hole on the head of this strange father, she didn't continue to make trouble. However, the little girl held Qin Jingshu's hand firmly, and her whole body was on guard.

"My dear, you are here with me." The emperor suddenly said.

Niuniu stood there with her head lowered and did not move.

Duke Xian couldn't help but get angry again. He kept winking at Niu Niu, but all of them were ignored by the blind man.

Seeing Niu Niu pretending to be stupid, Duke Xian could only urge his adopted daughter on the side: "Jing Shu, please take Niu Niu over quickly, we don't want to keep our distinguished guests waiting for too long."

Qin Jingshu was actually very afraid of the emperor. Although she had only seen him a few times in the palace, one look at him from a distance was enough to scare her.

But even so, Qin Jingshu's feet were like nails to the ground. She didn't dare to look directly into her father's eyes like Niu Niu did. She could only lower her head, her small body trembling constantly, and she looked like she would cover her ears in the next second.

Duke Xian was very angry, but the familiar pressure from the emperor fell on him again.

He endured the dizziness from his head and reached out to pull Niu Niu again, but before he touched her, he felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and he fell to the ground with his five bodies prostrated.

"Duke!" The head of the manor shouted.

Duke Xian couldn't hear it, his head tilted, and he completely lost consciousness.

No one present thought that he was going out to play and improve his relationship with his daughter, but within a quarter of an hour after arriving at the manor, Duke Xian was already half dead.

Even the emperor had never seen such a scene, and his face was blank for a moment.

Niuniu looked at the Duke of Xian lying in front of her, and helplessly said to the village head: "Carry him to the bed."

After being reminded, the village head woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly called a bunch of people to come over and carry the Duke of Xian into the best room of the village.

"The doctor is here!" someone shouted.

The village head hurriedly pulled the doctor to treat the master, and even forgot to arrange for the peacock fawn.

Niuniu took advantage of the chaos and the servants had no time to pay attention. She pulled Qin Jingshu to the stable and found the horse that had injured the Duke of Xian before. The little girl looked up and asked sincerely: "Can you take me back to the capital?"
