The tyrant family read my heart and doted on me.

·

When Emperor Zhaoning and Jiujiu parted, he heard Jiujiu's thoughts, so now he returned to the imperial study and stopped moving forward when he reached the lake beside the imperial garden.

He looked at the calm lake and thought about Jiujiu's words quietly.

The brat said that the fall of the Western Chu Kingdom in ten years was a big deal. He would rather believe it than not. He could listen to it and tell the truth.

But the brat also said that his leg would break later.

This sounds really weird.

Can the brat really know what will happen in the future?

He was unbelievable and a little unbelievable.

Fu'an also came back and saw Emperor Zhaoning walking to the lake but not yet on the bridge in the middle of the lake. He remembered Jiujiu's words.

As the emperor's personal attendant, he must be careful in everything, especially when it comes to personal accidents. He would rather be on guard than not on guard.

"Your Majesty, let's have a cup of tea before moving forward, shall we?"

Fu'an was worried that nothing bad had happened, so he did not directly tell Emperor Zhaoning about Jiujiu. Instead, he quietly found a reason to stop Emperor Zhaoning from moving forward.

If it really happened, he would mention it again.

Emperor Zhaoning naturally saw Fu'an's intention, and he figured that the brat must have reminded Fu'an, and Fu'an stopped him.

He thought that brat was so vindictive that he didn't want to remind him of anything that threatened his safety.

Still somewhat conscientious.

Not in vain.

Emperor Zhaoning smiled.

Fu'an saw it in his eyes and was surprised in his heart. He grew up with the emperor. The emperor didn't like to laugh and seldom smiled. He only smiled when he met Princess Weiwei.

"Your Majesty, you are actually smiling? Are you happy?"

Emperor Zhaoning did not answer, but said: "Tea, I will have a cup of tea before moving forward."

He wanted to see if the bridge in the middle of the lake would collapse.

Aunt Liu, the head of the imperial study who came to see Emperor Zhaoning, said: "But Your Majesty, over there in the imperial study, the Imperial Preceptor and several ministers are waiting to see you. They all say there is something urgent."

Emperor Zhaoning did not respond. Tea was served and he was eating tea by himself. After finishing one cup, he just stood up when a loud rumble came from the bridge in the middle of the lake not far away.

The bridge collapsed suddenly, and the collapse was very serious. Many pieces of wood fell into the lake, and the entire bridge was destroyed.

Emperor Zhaoning couldn't imagine what the consequences would be if he stepped forward just now?

I guess it was just like what the brat was thinking, even if he didn't die, he would still have his leg broken. Then the next thing he would do was lie in bed, unable to do anything, and the watching people from neighboring countries would laugh at him.

When he gets angry, his health will get worse and worse.

As for the Western Chu Kingdom, without his governance, the dragons would lose their heads, like a piece of loose sand, which would fall apart sooner or later.

It seems that brat is not talking nonsense. He really has a special ability to predict the future.

He, Western Chu, was really in danger of losing his country.

Emperor Zhaoning was frightened when he thought of this. He didn't dare to think about how the people of Western Chu would abuse him if he really died in his hands. Humiliate him? Hate him? Blame him? How will future generations evaluate him?

Fu'an also said with lingering fear: "Fortunately it has not passed, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"Thanks to the Eighteenth Prince for reminding me!"

Emperor Zhaoning was silent for a long time, and said to the aunt in charge beside him: "Aunt Liu, send all those people away for me, leaving only the imperial master. I will go there immediately."

Seeing Emperor Zhaoning walking back and Fu'an following him, Aunt Liu hurriedly asked: "Your Majesty? Where are you going?"

Cold palace.

Concubine Li was frightened when she learned that Jiujiu climbed out of the dog hole behind the cold palace, slipped around outside, and saw Emperor Zhaoning and the terrifying Concubine Jiang.

He hurriedly came to the little carrot head and cried, "Jiujiu, let mother take a good look at you. Are you okay?"

Concubine Li was so frightened that she burst into tears and murmured: "I think back then, your brother, the Thirteenth Prince, also slipped out and got into trouble and was imprisoned. He is still here today. Being locked up, never having a chance to see the light of day again.”

"Mom will never see him again in this life. Jiujiu, mom only has you. You can't let anything happen to you!"

Concubine Li hugged Jiujiu and cried for a long time.

Jiujiu stretched out her chubby little hand and awkwardly wiped the tears from Concubine Li's face: "Mother, if you don't cry, don't cry. When Jiujiu grows up, I will help you live a good life."

As for the elder brother, he was wronged and there will be a good opportunity to rescue him later.

She will see the right moment and rescue her brother.

Now is the time and there is no way to save it.

You have to wait for someone to return to the palace.

"Okay Jiujiu, as long as you are safe and sound, my mother will be very happy. She doesn't care about good or bad times."

"Mother."

Jiujiu threw herself into Concubine Li's arms.

[My mother is really kind-hearted and gentle, and she never blames Jiujiu. 】

[It’s a pity that cheap dad is blind. 】

From the moment Jiujiu was born, Concubine Li could always hear Jiujiu's various thoughts, so this was no surprise. She just shook her head fondly: "You kid." She acted like an adult for her. Feeling aggrieved?

"Your Majesty, the Emperor is here!" Concubine Li's little girl Qiu Shuang came to report hurriedly.

After Concubine Li heard this, she felt like she was facing a formidable enemy.

Because the last time Emperor Zhaoning came to see her was three years ago, she was pregnant at that time and looked forward to the emperor coming to see her every day. Unfortunately, the emperor had many things to do and did not come often. It was because of the groundless charge of collaborating with the enemy and treason.

She did not commit treason.

I really don’t understand why such a big crime was pinned on her head?

Because of this, she has always been afraid of seeing the emperor.

At this moment, Emperor Zhaoning suddenly came. Concubine Li's legs were weak, and the blood on her face quickly faded at a speed visible to the naked eye, "Jiujiu? Why don't we hide it first? You can... see my father." We should be unhappy."

"Mom, don't be afraid, it's okay." Jiujiu understood why Emperor Zhaoning came, "There's no need to hide, Emperor Father may be here to take us out."

"You kid, what are you wishing for?" Concubine Li sighed.

"real."

Concubine Li shook her head: "Stop dreaming, we will probably be trapped here for the rest of our lives."

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Zhaoning arrived. He and a group of people behind him poured into Concubine Li and Jiujiu's simple room, which was full of darkness.

Concubine Li protected Jiujiu behind her, and then saluted with a trembling body: "Concubine, Shen, see you, Your Majesty, Long Live Your Majesty."

Emperor Zhaoning looked at the woman in front of him. Even though she was wearing a plain shirt, she was still so beautiful, like hibiscus growing out of clear water. The passage of time had not damaged her beauty, but instead gave her a unique charm.

She is not like those women in the harem who wear red, green and glittering gold all day long.

Emperor Zhaoning looked at it with a special feeling in his heart.

He stretched out his hand to help Concubine Li get up.

Concubine Li was so flattered that she did not dare to put her hand into Emperor Zhaoning's.

Emperor Zhaoning took the initiative to hold Concubine Li's hand, helped Concubine Li up, and gave Jiujiu a special look behind Concubine Li.
