Chapter 38 Blessed Indeed
Xia Qingtong watched the two eunuchs approach, and his face turned white.
- System? System?
She mentally called the system, but the system would start to play dead again.
Xia Qingtong really only felt that there were 10,000 grass, mud and horses running over her head in her heart.
- System, do you want me to die here?
There was still no response, and the two eunuchs had already stepped forward, holding Xia Qingtong's hand one on the left and one on the right.
"You let me go."
- System, I asked to start the live broadcast, in case I really die like this. So that people know how I died.
The system will play pretending to be dead to the extreme, Xia Qingtong repeatedly called to no avail, and the person has been tied to a wooden shelf in the middle by two eunuchs.
She panicked: "What are you doing here?" I am a member of Jianping Houfu, and my father is that Jianping Hou. You still won't let me go? ”
"Don't say that your father is the Marquis of Jianping, trespassing into the Forbidden Palace, even if you are a princess today, you can't escape."
Xia Qingtong's hands were tied, she couldn't struggle, the more she struggled, the tighter the rope on her hands became.
Soon, it made her wrist hurt. The eunuch was obviously good at this, and with three or two strokes, he tied Xia Qingtong up.
"Alright. You can say what is the purpose of your trespassing in the Forbidden Palace? ”
"I didn't—"
Xia Qingtong refused to admit it, and he was the first older eunuch, but at this time he brought a whip.
"It's a hard bone, I don't know how many times I can afford it."
The whip was four or five feet long, and the black leather whip was extremely strong at first glance. The eunuch took the whip, but instead of directly whipping it on Xia Qingtong, he wet it into the basin on the side.
"You'd better say it quickly." The younger eunuch sneered: "If you whip down like this, you can't afford to take a few beats, girl." ”
Xia Qingtong swallowed her saliva, isn't it true that she will forget her?
- System, your uncle's. At this time, do you really want to watch me die?

Yongle Palace.
Emperor Qingren is only in his early forties this year, and he is in the prime of life. He has always called himself a wise man. I don't care about women.
Therefore, when he entered the door, he just said a flat sentence to the room of concubines kneeling on the ground. After that, I walked to the top seat and sat down.
Today is Concubine Xian's birthday, and she was supposed to be the first.
But when the emperor stepped forward, she stepped back to the side and let the emperor sit at the top.
Emperor Qingren glanced at her, and his eyes were softer than usual: "Concubine Xian doesn't need to be polite, today is your birthday." There are no outsiders here. You can sit down too. ”
"Your Majesty."
Concubine Xian had a smile in her eyes, although she gave birth to four princes, she was only in her thirties this year. It is usually well maintained, and it is the heyday of the time.
She moved slightly, trying to sit down in her place. Emperor Qingren reached out and took her hand.
"Today is the birthday of the concubine, so let's sit here."
After the emperor and concubine took their seats, he raised his hand, and the others followed suit.
Emperor Qingren looked around and found that Nizi from the palace did not come. Not only the concubine, but also the prince and the princess did not come.
Ming Yue was already sitting in her place with Chu Zhaoyi in her place at this time. Emperor Qingren's gaze swept from that direction, his eyes were calm, and there was no trace of emotion in them.
It's just that when Concubine Xian came to pour him wine, she seemed to ask very casually.
"Before I entered the door just now, I heard that the hall was very lively, what were you talking about?"
