The most romantic little emperor

Dong Meir's delicate body lay weakly on the cold ground. A fleeting hint of cruelty flashed across the depths of her eyes, like a flash of a meteor in the dark night, and was quickly overwhelmed by endless resentment and helplessness, without attracting the slightest notice from others.

Her slender hand gently covered her red face, and two lines of tears quietly slid down, like morning dew sliding along the newly opened petals, revealing unspeakable grievance and weakness.

She struggled, moving on her knees, and slowly crawled to Qin Hao, hugging his legs tightly. Her watery eyes were full of innocence and purity, as if they could wash away all the dust in the world.

She choked with sobs, her voice trembling a little: "Your Majesty, the heaven and earth can bear witness to my heart, and I have not done anything to let you down."

Qin Hao's face became even colder when he heard this. He kicked Dong Meir's seemingly fragile body with a ruthless kick, pushing her away a little. His tone was cold: "At this point, you still dare to quibble?"

"Come here, take out the things. I want to see what else you have to say."

As he finished speaking, a pretty figure appeared before everyone's eyes, like a fragrant orchid blooming in the morning light, instantly attracting everyone's attention.

Dong Meir suddenly looked up, as if she had seen a ghost. A look of disbelief and horror flashed across her eyes. Then, she shouted, "How dare you show up without permission, little bitch! Get out of here right now!"

The figure was none other than Xiaodie, Dong Meir's former personal maid.

At this moment, she was holding a simple and elegant small box in her hands, and she walked quickly to Qin Hao. Her voice was as thin as a thread, but it was clearly heard by everyone: "Your Majesty, the things in the box were originally things that Madam Dong ordered me to destroy."

"I followed your Majesty's orders and had to destroy some of them. The rest are in this box. I beg your Majesty to make the decision."

Dong Mei'er's face turned pale as paper when she heard this. She swayed and fell to the ground helplessly. Her eyes were blazing with fire and she cursed with gnashing teeth: "What a traitorous slave who betrays her master for fame. How dare you betray me and put me in this situation!"

Before she finished her words, she suddenly stood up, raised her jade hand high, pointed directly at Xiaodie in front of her, and wanted to vent her anger with her palm wind.

Seeing this, Qin Hao flashed and firmly grasped Dong Meir's raised hand, then gently spun her and threw her aside.

His eyes flashed with cold light, and his tone was as cold as ice: "Dong Mei'er, do you still have me in your eyes? How dare you try to hurt someone under my nose? Do you really think no one dares to punish you?"

Dong Sisi was extremely anxious when she saw this. She quickly stepped forward and gently comforted Dong Meir, "Meier, don't be impulsive. If there is any misunderstanding or unspeakable secret, you might as well tell His Majesty calmly."

"Your Majesty is wise. As long as you haven't committed any serious mistakes, I will definitely let you off the hook."

Her words were full of concern for her niece and awe of the imperial power, trying to find a little room to ease this sudden storm.

"Your Majesty!" Dong Meir's voice was thin as a thread, mixed with uncontrollable sobs and sobs. Her eyes were sparkling, as if they contained thousands of words, but she didn't know where to start.

Her originally charming and enchanting figure now looked like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind, helpless and exceptionally sad and lovable.

However, beneath this charming appearance, lies unknown lies and deception, just like a rose that looks beautiful but actually has thorns.

Qin Hao's gaze did not linger on her for a moment, as if her sorrow and despair had nothing to do with him. He turned around gently and ordered Xiaodie beside him: "Xiaodie, open the box. I want to see what else she has to say!"

Dong Meir's face changed suddenly when she heard that. She stood up suddenly and tried desperately to put the box in, as if the box contained some shameful secret.

Qin Hao's eyes were sharp, and he saw through her intentions in an instant. His words were as cold as the winter wind, without any warmth: "Dong Mei'er, your fearless struggle is in vain. If you rebel again, I will never show mercy. If you don't believe me, you can give it a try."

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a sword of Damocles hanging over Dong Meir's heart. Her body froze and she stood still on the spot in an instant, her beautiful eyes filled with fear.

Seeing that Dong Meir didn't come over to stop her, Xiaodie quickly unfastened the lock and the box opened.

In an instant, a dazzling light overflowed from the box, illuminating the entire room.

What was displayed before everyone was a stunning phoenix crown, its colors as colorful as the clouds in the early morning light, gorgeous yet solemn.

The Phoenix Coronet was inlaid with hundreds of natural rubies, each of which seemed to contain the secrets of the sea and stars, glittering with fascinating colors. There were countless pearls, emitting dazzling light, brightening the entire room.

The front part is decorated with nine golden dragons holding pearls in their mouths, and below them are eight golden phoenixes inlaid with kingfisher feathers. There is also a golden phoenix at the back, making a total of nine dragons and nine phoenixes. This is the Nine Dragons and Nine Phoenix Crown.

The beauty of the phoenix crown before her eyes transcended the boundaries of the mortal world. Even the crown worn by the extremely noble Empress Dowager Xiaoren in her memory would inevitably appear dull in the face of such splendor. It seemed as if all the beauty and exquisiteness in the world were condensed in this phoenix crown.

This dazzling phoenix crown has been a symbol of the queen's dignity, majesty and status since ancient times. It is also a symbol of imperial power. Beneath its splendor and exquisiteness lies a strict etiquette that cannot be violated.

In this deep palace, every strand of silk and every piece of pearl and jade carries unspeakable weight and rules that no one is allowed to overstep.

And Dong Meir actually dared to order a phoenix crown without permission. This was such a heinous crime that even beheading her would not be an exaggeration.

When Dong Sisi's eyes fell on the phoenix crown, ripples appeared in her heart and a chill quietly invaded her.

She quickly stepped forward, with a harsh and sad tone, and scolded Dong Meier: "Mei'er, how can you be so reckless and ignorant!"

"This phoenix crown is not something you can bear. Making it privately is tantamount to stepping into the forbidden zone and committing a heinous crime. Why don't you quickly apologize to His Majesty and ask for forgiveness!"

After saying that, Dong Sisi turned to look at Qin Hao, her expression full of self-blame and pleading. She opened her red lips slightly, and her tone was soft and earnest: "Your Majesty, Mei'er was young and ignorant, and was confused for a moment, which led to this big mistake."

"As an elder, Auntie, you failed to discipline her. This is a dereliction of duty. I beg Your Majesty to forgive her this time, considering that this is her first offense, and give her a chance to reform."
