"Mo'er, why do you think I am punishing you today?"

"This slave doesn't know."

Mo'er panicked and knelt down again, while Qiao Shi's eyes narrowed.

"Get up, don't kneel down unless I ask you to do so."

"yes."

Mo'er panicked and became submissive.

After a moment of silence, Qiao Shi sighed.

"Li'er Mo'er, there are not many people around me that I can use. You are the first to follow me, so you naturally know my temperament. As long as you are absolutely loyal to me, I will never treat you badly. Although Cui'er is my personal maid, , but if you do something wrong, you will be punished. What I want is people who obey me, not people who make their own decisions."

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

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

——

An hour later, Cui'er was still kneeling outside. Qiao Shi hadn't had lunch, so Concubine Zhi told her to come over.

Qiao Shi curled his lips.

Cui'er was a maid brought in from outside the palace. Although a copy was prepared with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the deed of betrayal was in the hands of the master.

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

Xiao Xiazi was more reliable in doing things. Qiao Shi called Xiao Xiazi over and whispered a few times, then tied a thick layer of cotton on his knees.

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

When they arrived at the gate of Concubine Zhi's palace, Concubine Zhi's personal maid sent word that Concubine Zhi was taking a nap and would have to wait for a while.

The sun was shining brightly in front of the palace gate, and there was no place to hide. Qiao Shi asked Li'er to open her umbrella and stand in front of the palace gate, waiting.

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

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

Qiao Shi was blessed, but Concubine Zhi did not let Qiao Shi get up. When he looked again, Concubine Zhi was resting her hands on the chair and closing her eyes, as if she was sleeping.

"My dear concubine, my dear concubine, you have a lot of things going on these days. Please do not disturb your concubine."

Qiao Shi said nothing and still maintained Fu Shen's movements.

Concubine Zhi has been in the palace for nearly ten years. Her favor continues to grow and she has given birth to a prince and princess. It is not easy to deal with her.

——

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

Xiao Xiazi was so frightened that half of her soul was lost, and she hurriedly knelt down to say goodbye.

Eunuch Su next to the emperor immediately exploded and shouted loudly.

"Which palace slave are you from? You are so reckless that you dare to rush into the emperor! Someone, please pull down this ignorant slave."

Eunuch Su waved his hand, but Xiao Xiazi nervously hid the package in his hand.

Naturally, this little gesture was not hidden from Eunuch Su's eyes. He quickly asked someone to bring the package over. When he opened it, there were more than a dozen candies wrapped in oil paper.

"Your Majesty, have mercy on me. Concubine Ying was hurriedly called away by the imperial concubine before she had lunch. She even forgot to bring the candy cakes, so my servant hurriedly sent the candy cakes away."

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

"What's the purpose of this candy heart cake?"

"Reporting to the Emperor, Concubine Ying has had stomach problems since she was a child. She must eat three meals a day on time, and she must eat a few candies after meals. Otherwise, her hands and feet will become weak and she will not have any strength. I am afraid of Concubine Ying. The empress offended the imperial concubine, so she forgot to look at the road in a hurry and asked the emperor to forgive her..."

Xiao Xiazi put her head on the ground, feeling frightened in her heart.

The emperor didn't pursue it too much.

"Get up."

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

Qiao Shi had been maintaining his posture in the palace for about a quarter of an hour. His hands and feet were getting weaker and weaker, and he was breaking out in cold sweats. The feeling of panic filled his heart, and his desire to eat was extremely strong at this moment. strong.

"The Emperor has arrived——"

At this moment, the eunuch outside shouted, and Concubine Zhi slowly opened her eyes. When she saw Qiao Shi still in the body in front of her, she quickly got up.

"Look at me, I don't know what happened recently. I'm too tired. My sister has been wronged for nothing. Why don't you guys wake me up?"

Concubine Zhi seemed to blame the 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 are Zhi'er and Yingbin talking about, whether they feel wronged or not."

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

"Greetings to the Emperor."

"Everyone get up."

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

After sitting on the main seat with Concubine Zhi, the emperor noticed Qiao Shi and frowned immediately when he saw Qiao Shi's pale face.

"Yingbin, what's wrong with you?"

"emperor……"

As soon as Qiao Shi shouted two words, his vision suddenly went dark, and he fell to the ground. Fortunately, Li'er was quick to catch Qiao Shi, but she couldn't hold up all the weight of Qiao Shi, and slowly fell to the ground. .

"Come here, Doctor Xuan!"

Concubine Zhi hurriedly called for the imperial doctor, but Qiao Shi shook her head weakly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, I'm fine. I just need to eat a few candies."

When it came to the sugar-filled cakes, the emperor then remembered that the little eunuch outside was not just sending sugar-filled cakes, so he immediately asked Eunuch Su to bring the people in.

After getting the candy cake in Xiao Xiazi's hand, Qiao Shi almost wolfed down the candy cake.

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

It is true that the original owner suffered from hunger disease. He had injured his roots when he was a child. As long as he did not eat on time, his hands and feet would become weak and his body would become weak. This was also found in the hospital's examination.

"… Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I did not do this intentionally, and the imperial concubine did not know that I did not have lunch."

"You, just tell me when you're hungry. If you don't know, you'd think I'm some kind of man-eating tiger."

Concubine Zhi smiled with a touch of indulgence and helplessness on her face, her beaded head swaying as she spoke.

Just the flash of coldness in her eyes was not as simple as what she said on the surface.

Next, Concubine Zhi was about to ask someone to serve the meal, but Qiao Shi shook her head.

"Your Majesty the Imperial Concubine, even if the Imperial Concubine the Imperial Concubine does not summon the concubines today, the concubines still want to come over and apologize to the Imperial Concubine the Imperial Concubine."

"Oh? Please excuse me?"

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 she really didn't want Qiao Shi to say it. Just when Concubine Zhi wanted to divert the matter, the emperor spoke.

"I wonder what concubine Ying is guilty of. Let me tell you and I can give you some advice."

The emperor smiled and seemed not to take this matter seriously.

Qiao Shi had no doubt about it and looked at Concubine Zhi cautiously before speaking in a low voice.

"Reporting to your Majesty, today my concubine's palace maid Cui'er made a mistake. I made her kneel in the yard, so I went to the imperial concubine to apologize."

Hearing this, Concubine Zhi's heart skipped a beat, and she wanted to say something, but before she could, the emperor became curious again.

"The person you punished, why did you come to Concubine Zhi to plead guilty?"
