Not convinced? My princess has explosives

The emperor couldn't concentrate on reading the memorials in the imperial study and was curious about what Xiao Shuyao was going to do.

He brought Eunuch Su to the imperial kitchen.

From a distance I saw a group of people gathered here.

When the emperor walked over, everyone knelt down and saluted.

Xiao Shuyao really didn't want to kneel, but everyone else was kneeling, and if she didn't, it would be a disrespect to the Emperor.

When Xiao Shuyao was about to kneel down, Eunuch Su stepped forward and supported Xiao Shuyao.

"Miss Xiao, you don't have to kneel down and kowtow when you see His Majesty in the future."

Xiao Shuyao looked at the emperor in surprise.

The emperor just nodded with a smile.

Xiao Shuyao kept this in mind silently.

This emperor is not bad.

Xiao Shuyao stood aside without any hesitation.

But the emperor did not let anyone get up.

Instead, he asked sinisterly.

What happened here, can anyone tell me?

Chief Steward Zou of the Imperial Kitchen was about to stand up and explain to the Emperor.

As a result, the guards behind the emperor rushed up and pressed Manager Zou to the ground.

There was a loud thud, and Manager Zou's knees felt as if they were about to be shattered.

Manager Zou was in so much pain that he broke out in a cold sweat.

"How dare you! The emperor didn't even ask you to get up, and you dared to get up."

Manager Zou was so frightened that he dared not utter a word and quietly looked up at the Emperor.

The emperor looked at him with eyes no different from those of a dead person.

Manager Zou's heart skipped a beat. It's over. Something bad is going to happen today.

The emperor looked at Xiao Shuyao with a gentle expression and said.

"Girl, tell me what happened."

Xiao Shuyao was not the one to be polite. She mentioned Manager Zou's arrogance and the words of the imperial chefs.

There were also the obscene deeds of the commander of the guards, which were described to the emperor in vivid detail.

He even performed it with dancing.

The emperor felt as if this story was what he had seen himself.

This little girl has this ability.

The emperor had a terribly gloomy expression on his face.

He was afraid that his daughter-in-law would run away, so how dare this crappy guard commander keep thinking about her.

He is looking for death. There is also this person who is the chief steward of the imperial kitchen and the virtuous concubine's man.

I don’t know if this guard commander is one of Concubine Xian’s men, but it’s just right that he has dealt with them all.

"Someone, take these two idiots away and kill them."

"This is the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she is also the one I appointed to manage the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet."

"These dogs know that the person was appointed by me, yet they still dare to bully him like this."

"Isn't this a slap in my face?"

"Drag him away, give him a hundred lashes, and then behead him."

It seems that the emperor is very angry.

But Xiao Shuyao smelled something fishy.

Does the Emperor know or not that the people in the imperial kitchen are the virtuous concubine's men?

This holy heart is really hard to predict.

The emperor saw Xiao Shuyao standing aside with a thoughtful look on his face, and was afraid that the little girl might have noticed something.

What a clever girl she is! That's great!

He can also cook all kinds of delicious food, including things I've never seen before. It's so great.

The news of the emperor's lavish operations in the imperial kitchen soon spread to all the palaces and courtyards.

The most anxious person was Concubine Xian.

Inside the Yonghe Palace, Concubine Xian angrily threw the teacup in her hand to the ground.

"Humph, what does the emperor mean by this? This is a slap in my face."

"My queen, please be careful with your words. Be careful that there are ears on the other side of the wall."

Nanny Jiang, the nanny who came with Concubine Xian and was also her wet nurse, nervously went to the entrance of the palace and looked around.

After making sure that there was no one around, he closed the palace door and returned to Concubine Xian.

At this moment, Concubine Xian was lying on the imperial concubine couch, and her maid Lian'er was kneeling beside the couch massaging her legs.

Behind her there was a maid named Ping'er who was fanning Concubine Xian, and she was enjoying herself so much.

He was completely different from the furious look he had just had.

Nanny Jiang returned to Concubine Xian and said.

"My dear concubine, you have to control your temper."

"It's just a minor person. Once he's dealt with, we can just make another one."

"My lady, the emperor hasn't come to see you for a long time."

"You have to think of a way."

Speaking of this, Concubine Xian was extremely angry.

Lian'er saw that the virtuous concubine was angry, and she panicked and used a little more force.

"Hi~"

Concubine Xian frowned and kicked Lian'er to the ground.

Nanny Jiang gave the other maids a look, and some of them came forward immediately.

Holding Lian'er, Nanny Jiang took out a cloth bag from her bosom, which when unfolded was filled with needles of varying thicknesses.

This is a common method used in the palace. It neither affects the servants' work nor allows others to discover that torture has been used.

Lian'er was so panicked and scared that she wanted to shout for help.

But his mouth was blocked by the table rag.

The cloth used to wipe the table was very rough. Lian'er felt unbearable pain from being pricked by the needle and her mouth corners were also rubbed raw.

The blood stained the rag red.

However, when Concubine Xian saw this scene, she felt much happier.

"Okay, Mammy, let someone take him away."

"Yes."

Nanny Jiang said as she stood beside Concubine Xian.

"My queen, I heard that the emperor punished the servants this time because of the eldest lady of the Xiao family."

"The eldest lady of the Xiao family has been appointed by the Emperor as the manager of this Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet."

"Miss Xiao is in charge of all matters concerning the palace banquet."

The virtuous concubine raised her eyes lazily and said.

"Oh? Miss Xiao? Why does it sound so familiar?"

Nanny Jiang said respectfully.

"My lady, it's Xiao Shuyao, the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who is engaged to His Royal Highness the Third Prince."

"This marriage contract was originally arranged because her mother saved my life."

"We just made this engagement, but who could have thought that the eldest daughter of the Xiao family would be such an ugly loser."

"How can this be worthy of my Hang'er?"

"Now he's causing trouble in the palace again."

"We have to find a way to cancel this engagement for Hang'er."

Nanny Jiang rolled her eyes cunningly.

I have an idea.

"My lady, why don't we~"

Then the two of them kept planning something in a low voice.

But Xiao Shuyao didn't know that someone was targeting her.

Inside Fengluan Palace, the Queen's small and delicate face was pale.

Lying on the couch, drinking the nourishing medicine brought by the maid.

Yu'er, the personal maid, and her wet nurse, Nanny Zhang, looked at the Queen worriedly.

"Okay, why are you two looking at me like that? I'm not going to die anytime soon."

Nanny Zhang hurried to the door.

"Bah bah bah!"

"My lady, please don't say such unlucky words."

"You will get better."

The Queen didn't want everyone to be so depressed, so she asked.

"Is there anything interesting happening today? Tell me about it."

This is Yu'er's unique skill.

In recent years, Fengluan Palace has been like a cold palace.

The queen's only pleasure was to read books and listen to Yu'er telling stories about the harem.

What did I do to win the favor of the master in some palace?

What about the growth of princes and princesses.

Another biggest expectation is waiting for the eldest prince to come to Fengluan Palace to see the queen.

The little princess lived in Fengluan Palace, which helped relieve a lot of the queen's inner depression.

But since His Royal Highness the Grand Prince~

Let’s not talk about this anymore. Yu’er is really good at finding out what’s going on in the palace.

In order to make the Empress happy over the years, he has accumulated extremely extensive network of contacts.
