C46 (2/2)

It was not a good thing for Zhang Cheng to reveal to His Majesty that he had spies in the Chuxiu Palace just like that, but since the moment the Imperial Consort Candidate entered the palace, he had wholeheartedly paid attention to Wang Rong. If Wang Rong was crippled in front of his imperial concubine, then he would really have wasted all his efforts.

In addition, he thought that he would be able to guess a bit more at the king's thoughts when comparing his service to his own. His Majesty had a different opinion of Wang Rong, so he wanted to make a bet on whether or not they were the same.

Zhang Cheng kneeled down, ”Your Majesty, this servant has made a mistake.”

”Hmm? What have you done wrong? ” Zhu Yijun asked.

”Your Majesty, this servant has a fellow villager who is two years younger than me. When this servant met him in the palace, I was thinking about our childhood friends, so I thought about when I could take care of him.”

”Therefore, after Miss entered the palace, I had him serve Miss at the Chuxiu Palace. Miss is a kind person, and will definitely be a good master in the future.”

”How could I have known that this servant was really reckless in doing things in my hometown. He treated Beauty Wang as a lady's palace maid and eagerly told me, this servant did not have a specific answer and had already informed His Majesty.”

”Your servant has committed a great sin. Your Majesty, please punish her.” Zhang Cheng said as he laid on the ground.

”So you're saying, it was not Wang Rong He's idea for Wang Zhixi to appear in the Cultivating Room?” Zhu Yijun asked.

”Yes.” Zhang Cheng raised his head, ”Miss has her own pride, she doesn't seem like someone who would behave in such a manner.”

”Did you get a clear answer this time?” Zhu Yijun asked.

”If it wasn't for this servant going to Jiaotai Palace yesterday to see how Miss had copied the books, this servant wouldn't know. It turns out this matter isn't related to Miss.” Zhang Cheng said.

”You went to the Jiaotai Palace yesterday?” Zhu Yijun asked.

”It was this servant who went. When this servant went, this lady did not eat nor did she have any tea. The door of the hall was closed, and it was cold and dark inside.” Zhang Cheng said, looking at the expression on His Majesty's face out of the corner of his eyes.

As expected, His Majesty's face darkened. ”I only asked her to copy the books. As for the rest, I didn't want her to be mistreated. How do my subordinates handle this matter?”

”His Majesty had only spoken of punishments, so it would be better for the others to have more troubles than less. They wouldn't consider all aspects.” Zhang Cheng said.

”Alright, alright. Go and pass down the order, and let her copy the remaining parts back to Chuxiu Palace. ” Zhu Yijun waved and said without a care.

A eunuch came in to report, ”Your Majesty, an eunuch from Jiaotai Palace has come to report. He said that Imperial Consort Candidate who had entered yesterday to receive punishment have finished receiving their punishment today.

”Just copy it?” Zhu Yijun asked in surprise.

”Miss must have stayed up late last night.” Zhang Cheng said in panic.

”Last time she stayed up late and went back sick for four or five days, and this time she did it again! Not only does she not care about her body at all, her attitude is as if she's receiving a proper punishment. ” Zhu Yijun shouted in fury. Did she think that I would feel guilty if she tortured me? I still need to give her another pair of hairpins? ”

Finished speaking, she stood up and walked towards the Jiaotai Palace, angrily leaving. Zhang Cheng hurriedly followed behind him.

Wang Rong He was sitting on a praying mat now, his hair was not loose yet, but his face was pale white. Seeing Zhu Yijun come in, she lowered his head, ”My daughter pays her respects to Your Majesty, Your Majesty is extremely fortunate. Your Majesty, I beg your pardon for being so rude in front of my daughter's palace. ”

”This little girl is unable to stand and salute alone.” Wang Rong smiled as if he had lost consciousness, and being unable to move his lower body was nothing.

Zhu Yijun looked at her in anger, ”We told you to kneel down, and there's no one else in this hall. Who would know that you are just sitting down and copying while lying down? The reason why I let you copy a book is to make you reflect on the process of copying. You're in such a hurry to finish copying it, what did you reflect on? You're still unhappy about it, aren't you? ”

”Your Majesty's words are going to kill my daughter. Your Majesty, even if your daughter were to continue punishing her by copying the books, your daughter will still be unable to finish it. ” Wang Rong He looked up at his majesty, ”If Your Majesty finds it hard to quell his anger, then my daughter can only die to atone for her sins.”

”Did I tell you to die?” Zhu Yijun slapped the table and said, ”Right now, you only know how to argue with us.”

Wang Rong couldn't help but laugh. ”Then, Your Majesty, if you ask my daughter again, she will just be a mute and not say a word.”

”Is it the same thing as normal?” Zhu Yijun asked.

Wang Rong lowered her head and did not speak. Zhu Yijun was so angry that his chest hurt. ”Scram, scram back to the storage palace. Zhang Cheng, find an imperial physician to take a look at her.

”Thank you for your grace, your majesty.” Wang Rong He said, ”Could Your Majesty allow palace maid to help support my daughter for a bit?”

Xi Tao had been waiting outside for a long time. Seeing that the emperor had come, and that the king was patting the table and shouting loudly, Xi Tao's heart tightened. Lady, you must not offend the emperor anymore.

Zhang Cheng waved at her from the entrance of the palace, Xi Tao walked in quickly, while Wang Rong and she used her strength to stand up, but in reality, they were not able to stand steadily, and leaned on her body and asked softly. I'm not heavy, do you want to call someone else over? ”

”Good job.” Xi Tao said. Halfway there she carried Wang Rong and walked out. Wang Rong Yun paused for a bit when she passed by, ”Your majesty, my daughter is rude, my daughter recognizes this punishment. The rest. ”My daughter doesn't recognize you.”

”What others?” Zhu Yijun looked at her. Hearing it from her in person was not something she had arranged, so she was in a good mood.

”His Majesty's body is his own. Other than him, who else in the world can control him? Your Majesty is unwilling. It doesn't matter who gets into the dragon bed. If Your Majesty is willing, then who is the person in the dragon bed?

”Before entering the palace, my daughter's body was her own. After entering the palace, my daughter's body was not hers. Your Majesty, if you still feel that your daughter has the ability to arrange other people's bodies, then you have truly overestimated your daughter. ” Wang Rong He said.

Zhu Yijun reached out to touch the pearl hairpin on her head. Whose body is it? ”

Wang Rong didn't want to say anymore, so she lowered her head and let Xi Tao take her and leave.

”Just you wait, get a carriage to take you back. Relying on your palace maid to drag you around, when will you be able to return?” Zhu Yijun said.

”My daughter is a person awaiting trial after committing a crime. She doesn't dare to go against the rules.” Wang Rong said without turning her head.

Zhu Yijun looked at her back, ”You're really stubborn.”
