"Mo'er, why did you say that this palace punished you today?"

"The slave doesn't know."

Mo'er panicked and knelt down again, and Qiao Shi's eyes lit up.

"Get up, don't kneel if this palace doesn't let you kneel."

"Yes."

Mo'er panicked and panicked, and her temperament was submissive.

There was silence for a moment, and then Qiao Shi sighed.

"Li'er Mo'er, there are not many people around me who can be used, you follow me first, naturally know my character, as long as you are absolutely loyal to me, I will never treat you badly, although Cui'er is the personal palace maid of this palace, but if you do something wrong, you will be punished, this palace wants people who obey this palace, not people who make their own decisions."

Qiao Shi's words were not only said to Li'er and Mo'er, but also to Cui'er, who was still kneeling outside.

Qiao Shi still didn't let Cui'er get up, and went to the bedroom to rest alone, but secretly went around the outside to observe quietly.

——

An hour later, Cui'er was still kneeling outside, Qiao Shi had not had lunch, and Concubine Zhi announced her over.

Qiao Shi hooked the corners of his lips.

Cui'er is a palace maid brought in from outside the palace, although she has prepared a copy in the Internal Affairs Office, but the deed of sale is in the hands of the master.

It's just that this Cui'er's deed of sale is not in the hands of the original owner, but still in the hands of Guan Lu.

Xiao Xiazi is more reliable, Qiao Shi called Xiao Xiazi to come over and whispered a few times, and then tied a thick layer of cotton cloth on his knees.

The sun was hot at noon, so Qiao Shi asked Li'er to bring an umbrella and took Li'er to Zhi Guifei.

When she arrived at the gate of Zhi Guifei's palace, Zhi Guifei's personal palace maid passed the word that Zhi Guifei was taking a nap and had to wait for a while.

The sun was very strong in front of the palace gate, and there was no place to hide, so Qiao Shi asked Li'er to open the umbrella and stand in front of the palace gate and wait.

An hour passed, Qiao Shi's forehead was covered with sweat, the palace gate in front of Concubine Zhi was still closed, and Qiao Shi didn't care, but his hands and feet began to weaken gradually.

At this moment, the palace door was opened, and the palace maid welcomed Qiao Shi in, and Concubine Zhi was sitting on the main seat.

Qiao Shi was blessed, but Concubine Zhi didn't let Qiao Shi get up, and when she looked at it again, Concubine Zhi was propped up on the chair with her eyes closed, as if she was sleeping.

"Little concubine Ying, the concubine Niangniang has had a lot of things recently, don't disturb the Niangniang."

Qiao Shi didn't speak, still maintaining the movement of the blessed body.

Concubine Zhi has been in the palace for nearly ten years, her grace has not faded, and she gave birth to a princess, and it is not so easy to deal with her.

——

Xiao Xiazi hurriedly rushed through the imperial garden with a package, but he didn't expect that the emperor happened to be walking here, and he met him all of a sudden.

Xiao Xiazi's frightened soul was half lost, and he hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye.

Father-in-law Su beside the emperor immediately exploded and scolded loudly.

"Which palace are you a slave, so reckless, you dared to collide with the emperor! Someone comes, pull down this slave who doesn't know the height of the sky. ”

Father-in-law Su waved his hand, but Xiao Xiazi nervously hid the package in his hand backwards.

This small action naturally did not hide from Father-in-law Su's eyes, and hurriedly asked someone to take the package, and when he opened it, there were more than a dozen pieces of candy wrapped in oiled paper.

"The emperor spares his life, Concubine Ying was hurriedly called by the concubine before lunch, and she even forgot to bring the sugar cake, so the slave was in a hurry to send the sugar cake."

When Qiao was mentioned, the emperor was stunned, and soon remembered that this was the concubine he had just sealed today, so he asked casually.

"What does this candy cake do?"

"Back to the emperor, Ying Concubine Niangniang has stomach problems since she was a child, and she must eat three meals a day on time, and she must eat a few sugar hearts after meals, otherwise her hands and feet will be weak and there is no strength, and the slave is afraid that Ying Concubine Niangniang will offend the concubine Niangniang, so she forgot to look at the road in a hurry, and asked the emperor to forgive her sins......"

Xiao Xiazi put his head on the ground, and he was scared for a while.

The emperor did not pursue too much.

"Get up."

Then the emperor also walked towards the palace of Concubine Zhi, and Xiao Xiazi followed behind.

Qiao Shi has been in the palace for about a quarter of an hour, his hands and feet are getting weaker and weaker, and cold sweat has broken out on his body, the feeling of panic is full of heart, and the desire to eat is extremely strong at this moment.

"The emperor has arrived—"

At this moment, the eunuch outside shouted, Concubine Zhi slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw Qiao Shi who was still in the blessed body in front of her, she hurriedly got up.

"Look at this palace, I don't know what happened recently, it's too lacking, so my sister has been wronged in vain, you guys, why don't you wake up this palace."

Concubine Zhi seemed to blame the palace maids around her, and she was also full of apologies for Qiao Shi's words.

Before Qiao Shi could speak, a hearty laugh came from outside the door.

"What can Zhi'er and Concubine Ying say, what grievances are not wronged."

As the bright yellow figure stepped in, Qiao Shi hurriedly blessed himself.

"Say hello to the emperor."

"Get up."

The emperor waved his hand casually, and then stepped forward to support Concubine Zhi, Qiao Shi stood aside, his body was shaky, and his face was pale without the slightest blood.

He Zhi Guifei sat on the main seat, and the emperor noticed Qiao Shi, and when he saw Qiao Shi's pale face, he immediately frowned.

"Concubine Ying, what's wrong with you?"

"The Emperor's ......"

Qiao Shi just shouted two words, his eyes suddenly darkened, and the whole person fell to the ground, fortunately, Li'er quickly supported Qiao Shi, but she couldn't support all the weight of Qiao Shi, and slowly fell to the ground.

"Someone, Doctor Xuan!"

Concubine Zhi hurriedly asked people to call the imperial doctor, but Qiao Shi shook her head weakly.

"Thank you concubine Niangniang, the concubine is fine, just eat a few candy cakes."

When it came to the sugar heart cake, the emperor remembered that the little eunuch outside was not just sending sugar heart cake, and immediately asked Father-in-law Su to bring people in.

got the candy cake in Xiao Xiazi's hand, and Qiao Shi almost devoured the candy cake.

After eating, he knelt on the ground embarrassedly and explained slowly.

It's true that the original owner is hungry, and when he was a child, he was injured at all, as long as he didn't eat on time, his hands and feet would be weak and his body would be weak.

“…… also asked the emperor to forgive the sin, the concubine did not mean to do so, and the concubine did not know that the concubine had not had lunch. ”

"You, if you're hungry, just tell the palace, and if you don't know, you still think that the palace is a man-eating tiger."

Concubine Zhi smiled and groaned, with a touch of connivance and helplessness, and Zhucui's head shook as she spoke.

It's just a flash of coldness in her eyes, but it's not as simple as she says on the surface.

Next, Concubine Zhi was about to make a meal, but Qiao Shi shook her head.

"Guifei Niangniang, originally even if the concubine Niangniang didn't summon the concubine today, the concubine also wanted to come over and ask the concubine Niangniang to ask for guilt."

"Oh? Please? ”

A flash of curiosity flashed in the emperor's eyes, and Concubine Zhi frowned slightly, not understanding what Qiao Shi was talking about.

But subconsciously I really didn't want Qiao Shi to say it, and just when Concubine Zhi wanted to turn this matter over, the emperor spoke.

"I don't know what concubine Ying's crime is, let's hear it, I can also give you advice."

The emperor smiled, and didn't seem to take this matter seriously.

Qiao Shi did not doubt it, and glanced at Concubine Zhi cautiously, and then spoke in a low voice.

"Back to the emperor, Cui'er, the palace maid of today's concubine, made a mistake, and the concubine punished her for kneeling in the courtyard, so she went to the concubine Niangniang to ask for the guilt."

Hearing this, Concubine Zhi chuckled in her heart, and opened her mouth to say something, but before she could do so, the emperor became curious again.

"You punished your people, why did you come to Zhi Guifei to ask for this crime?"
