"Bian Yiyi!"

Suddenly, a loud roar was heard from the Central Palace. The palace servants who were serving were no longer surprised and even smiled knowingly.

"Aunt Fuguang, save me!" A delicate little girl suddenly rushed into Fuguang's arms. Under her curved willow-leaf eyebrows, she had a pair of bright and clear eyes as bright as stars. Her fair and flawless skin was faintly pink, and her smile at this moment was like a coquettish cat.

Fu Guang picked up Yi Yi who was beside him, and then said in embarrassment, "My queen, please spare the little princess this time!"

At this time, Zhu Qing'an was rolling up his sleeves, revealing his fair and tender arms, and his right hand was holding a long bamboo stick, with an angry look on his fairy-like face.

"No matter who you ask to save you today, it won't work. Look at what you've done!"

Behind Zhu Qing'an, the originally exquisite palace was now in a mess, and an unpleasant odor could be smelled.

"Mother, Yi Yi didn't mean it. I was just developing a poison!" Yi Yi blinked pitiful eyes and begged for mercy.

Zhu Qing'an felt even more headache when he heard this. His daughter was five years old now. Compared to other well-behaved little girls, his daughter was actually a naughty girl.

Since she was a child, she didn't like the girls' games of catching butterflies and embroidering, and Zhu Qing'an never forced her daughter to do so. However, her daughter liked poisons and martial arts.

That's fine, since medicine and poison are inseparable, it's a good opportunity for her godmother to teach her some medical skills.

But this child Yi Yi always manages to make strange poisons. This is not the first time. A few days ago, he killed all the flowers in the imperial garden.

Zhu Qing'an was ready to beat her at that time, but she was a child who was very good at acting coquettishly and trying to please others. It happened that her father, her grandparents had entered the palace a few days ago to protect her.

"I warned you last time, you are still young, what if you hurt yourself while doing these things? If I don't beat you today, you won't learn your lesson. Come here!" Zhu Qing'an scolded.

Poison can hurt others as well as yourself. In Zhu Qing'an's opinion, her daughter is still young, and if she accidentally poisons herself, she will regret it extremely.

"Your Majesty..." Fu Guang wanted to persuade her, but seeing Zhu Qing'an's persistence, she knew that she could not persuade her.

"Little princess..." Fu Guang knelt on the ground holding Yi Yi, feeling very upset. "It is my fault that I failed to take good care of the little princess. Today, I will take the punishment for her!"

As soon as Fu Guang's voice fell, Wangshu, who had just entered the palace, also knelt down. Even the palace inhabitants did the same, saying in unison, "This is all our fault. We are willing to accept the punishment!"

These palace maids all stayed in the palace voluntarily, and Zhu Qing'an, the master of the palace, was very gentle. He not only treated these palace maids well, but also stipulated a series of regulations to make these palace maids live like human beings.

For example, palace servants now have enough time to rest, and when they are sick they can go to the imperial physician to see a doctor and get medicine, all without spending any money.

They have rest time every month. They can choose to leave the palace to reunite with their families, or they can choose to take a nap in the palace.

Zhu Qing'an even promised that as long as the palace ladies wanted to leave the palace, they would be allowed to do so, instead of having to die of old age in the palace for the rest of their lives.

Because of Zhu Qing'an's kindness to them, these palace servants felt warm even in the palace. They respected the Queen even more and served the little princess wholeheartedly.

Zhu Qing'an looked at the scene in front of him, feeling both sad and relieved.

At this moment, Yi Yi, who was hiding in Fu Guang's arms, jumped down. She walked obediently to her mother step by step and knelt directly in front of her mother.

"Mother, it was Yi Yi who was disobedient and hid the poison powder by herself. It has nothing to do with anyone else. If you want to punish someone, just punish Yi Yi alone, don't punish everyone!" Yi Yi pleaded, her eyes turning red with each blink.

Although Yi Yi is young, she knows that everyone has to take responsibility for their own actions. Although the palace maids around her are servants, in Yi Yi's eyes, they are elders who treat her very well, and she does not want to implicate them.

"Hold out your hand!" Zhu Qing'an was very satisfied with her daughter's attitude. If her daughter hid in Fu Guang's arms today and watched everyone being punished because of her and remained indifferent, she would really feel disappointed.

Yi Yi gritted her teeth and stretched out her hands. Her white and tender hands were chubby, just like little buns.

"Empress!" The palace maids exclaimed, each one extremely nervous.

Zhu Qing'an raised the bamboo stick and whipped his daughter's palms directly. With the sound of the whip, she cried out in pain, but she did not retract her hands and kept them raised high.

"Little Princess!" The palace maids couldn't help but tear up when they saw the little princess's white and tender palms turn red in an instant.

Wangshu couldn't bear to watch it any longer and ran out of the palace.

The second blow fell again, and Zhu Qing'an did not relax his strength because of his heartache. A mark appeared on Yi Yi's palm in an instant.

Yi Yi gritted her teeth, but her eyes were already filled with tears.

Zhu Qingan felt a pain in her chest. How could she not feel heartbroken? That was her daughter whom she had carried for ten months, her daughter whom she wished she could hold in the palm of her hand, her daughter whom she would feel so distressed if she got bumped or hurt.

However, Zhu Qing'an also knew that there is no order without rules. Although she doted on her daughter, she could not harm her daughter by doting on her too much.

When Zhu Qing'an raised the bamboo stick in his hand again, his hands were trembling slightly.

At this moment, a figure came into the hall quietly. It was His Majesty Bian Jingsheng, who was invited by Wangshu.

When the palace servants saw His Majesty coming, they all felt that their savior had arrived and waited for His Majesty to stop the Queen.

But Bian Jingsheng just stood there. Although he clenched his fists in pain, he did not say anything to stop him.

The third blow caused his entire body to tremble in pain.

After three hits, Zhu Qing'an threw down the bamboo stick. She naturally saw Bian Jingsheng coming. Not only Zhu Qing'an saw it, but Yi Yi also saw it. However, Yi Yi held back the tears in her eyes and did not say a word to ask her father to save her.

"Do you know you are wrong?" Zhu Qing'an asked with a stern face.

She nodded one by one. The palms of her hands were all red, which looked extremely scary.

Yi Yi slowly approached her mother and rubbed her waist with her head. "Yi Yi knows she was wrong. Yi Yi knows that she was doing this for her own good. She was afraid that Yi Yi would hurt herself. Yi Yi will never do that again! Mother, please don't be angry!"

Looking at such a well-behaved daughter, how could Zhu Qing'an still be angry?

Zhu Qing'an bent down and picked up her daughter, her voice choked with sobs. "Mother is not angry, mother is just afraid that you will get hurt. You like to play with poisons, so wait for your godmother to come and make them by your side, okay?"

Zhu Qing'an never thought that her daughter's liking for these poisons was something rebellious. She was only worried about her daughter's safety.

"Thank you, mother!" They burst into laughter one by one.

At this time, Bian Jingsheng waved his hand, and all the palace servants hurriedly bowed their heads and retreated. Wangshu and Fuguang went to call the imperial physician over.

"Daddy!" Yi Yi saw her daddy and her voice was crisp and a little bit cute.

Bian Jingsheng quickly took his daughter in his arms, looked at her red and swollen hands, and gently asked, "Does it hurt?"

Of course it hurts, the child's skin is tender, but Yi Yi just shook her head at this time "It doesn't hurt, Yi Yi made mother angry, she deserves to be punished!"

"I'm glad you understand, Yi Yi. Your mother is just afraid that you'll get hurt! Come, let daddy blow on it!" Bian Jingsheng held his daughter and blew gently.

At this time, the imperial physician had already arrived. Bian Jingsheng waived the formalities and asked the imperial physician to apply medicine to his daughter immediately.

Zhu Qingan sat next to Bian Jingsheng, looking at his daughter's palm, feeling a little reluctant.

"I thought you would say something to stop him!" Zhu Qing'an asked. After all, Bian Jingsheng's love for his daughter was so great that he was willing to give her all the stars in the sky. Normally, he spoiled his daughter to the point of lawlessness.

"I know that what happened today was Yi Yi's fault, and you are doing this for Yi Yi's own good. How could I stop you?" Bian Jingsheng hugged Yi Yi with a natural expression.

Although Bian Jingsheng dotes on his daughter very much, he also knows the limits of things.

Zhu Qingan's heart softened. Yes, she was still a bit strict with Yi Yi, and every time she taught Yi Yi a lesson, Bian Jingsheng, as a father, never covered up for her.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Bian Jingsheng reached out and held Zhu Qingan's little hand, his tone sincere.

The imperial physician lowered his head, afraid that he would hear something he shouldn't hear.

At this time, Yi Yi was blinking her eyes and looking at her father and mother curiously. In her impression, her father loved her and her mother very much, and she also liked to see her father loving her mother.

Bian Jingsheng has witnessed Zhu Qingan's efforts.

She seemed to be the most noble woman in the world, but Bian Jingsheng knew how much Zhu Qing'an had paid for this identity.

She vigorously promoted women's education, allowing those women trapped in the backyard to gradually have their own space and value. She also managed all the big and small matters in the palace very well, and there was harmony between everyone.

When it comes to taking care of children, Zhu Qing'an does it personally, so Yi Yi was brought up so well and did not become spoiled.

More than once, Bian Jingsheng sighed that he was so lucky to be able to marry such a good woman.

"It's not hard, but you are!" Zhu Qing'an leaned his head on Bian Jingsheng's chest. Compared to himself, Bian Jingsheng was the one who was really hard-working.

There are so many state affairs to deal with every day, and under Bian Jingsheng's governance, the Xuanlong Kingdom has become prosperous, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

Bian Jingsheng reduced taxes, severely punished corrupt officials, reformed the imperial examination system, and supported the soldiers. Therefore, the border defense of Xuanlong Kingdom is now as solid as a rock, and other countries dare not invade.

In the inner world, Bian Jingsheng was a good husband. He pampered and cared for Zhu Qing'an as always, and he had never been surrounded by other women. Even though the ministers had petitioned him countless times about having only one princess, Bian Jingsheng remained steadfast, determined to have only one wife and one child.

Even Zhu Qing'an herself once asked Bian Jingsheng if she wanted to have another child, but Bian Jingsheng refused. He didn't want Zhu Qing'an to suffer the pain of childbirth again.

He is also a wonderful father to his daughter.

He would take time out every day to accompany his daughter. The emperor of a country was willing to sit on the ground with his daughter and play in the mud. He also personally taught his daughter martial arts and accompanied her in horse stance.

He would also be like any other ordinary father in the world, holding his daughter high on his shoulders and carrying her to play freely in the palace.

"My little princess..." Only an anxious voice was heard from outside the palace.

Yi Yi, who was originally sitting in his father's arms, jumped down and ran outside. "It's the Empress Dowager!"

The Queen Mother was being supported by Guan Gongling. When she saw Yi Yi running towards her, she quickly opened her arms with joy on her face.

But Yi Yi slowed down her pace when she ran to the Empress Dowager, bowed, and then hugged the Empress Dowager's waist.

"My dear son, I was punished by your mother. Let the Empress Dowager see it!" the Empress Dowager asked with concern.

At this time, Zhu Qing'an and Bian Jingsheng walked out of the hall and bowed.

"Aunt, you came here in such a hurry, please take care of yourself!" Zhu Qing'an looked helpless.

"I heard that even the imperial physician has come, and I'm worried!" said the empress dowager. She did not interfere in Zhu Qing'an's care of the child, but she felt sorry for him and would be worried if she didn't come to see him.

"Don't worry, Grandmother. Yi Yi is fine! The imperial physician has already applied medicine!" Yi Yi raised his hands, his face full of comfort.

When the empress dowager saw it, she cried out in pain, and even the palace attendant Guan Gong beside her sighed in pain.

Even though the Queen Mother holds great power now and is usually solemn and dignified, to Yi Yi, she is just an ordinary grandmother in the world.

"My dear!" The Queen Mother looked at her niece standing beside her and said, "This child has done something wrong and should be punished, but you have to be gentler next time. This must hurt!"

"Grandmother, please don't blame mother. It's all Yi Yi's fault. Mother is doing this for Yi Yi's own good!" Yi Yi explained quickly.

These words made everyone present feel relieved and sensible.

"The Empress Dowager doesn't blame your mother. It's amazing that we are so sensible. How about this, the Empress Dowager will take you to the hunting ground to hunt in a few days, okay?" the Queen Mother coaxed.

"Really? That's great!" Yi Yi jumped up happily.

Yi Yi likes riding and shooting the most. Although she is young, she has had her own pony early on, and she also has a bow and arrow made for her by General Zhong Yi. It is so majestic.

Zhu Qingan wanted to stop her, after all, her aunt was old and it was not good for her to accompany her daughter in mischief.

Bian Jingsheng, however, held Zhu Qingan's arm and said, "The weather is just right now, we can hold a hunting party. It's really boring for the child to stay in the palace, so I can take you out to relax! When the time comes, I'll be there, it's okay!"

Upon hearing this, Zhu Qing'an couldn't help but feel relieved.

"It just so happens that my second sister and the others are also in Ancheng now, so let's go together!" Zhu Qing'an suggested.

Bian Jingsheng nodded. He let Zhu Qingan make the decisions on these small matters himself.

"Would it be okay if we all had dinner at the Empress Dowager's place?" the Empress Dowager asked.

She nodded one by one. She also liked the Imperial Grandmother very much. Not only did she like the Imperial Grandmother, she also liked many, many people, too many to count.

Watching the Queen Mother taking everyone away one by one, Bian Jingsheng suddenly picked up Zhu Qing'an beside him.

Zhu Qingan blushed and couldn't help but glared at Bian Jingsheng, "What are you doing?"

"It's a good thing that Yi Yi is not here, and I also want to..." As he said this, he had already entered the bedroom.
