Wang Zhaoyi signaled the maids to stop, looked at Xi Qian who was kneeling in front of her and asked, "Who are you?"
"Replying to your Majesty, I am a concubine from Cai Si Yuan." Xi Qian replied respectfully.
"Why should I, a little Cai Nv, ask me to be merciful?"
"My Majesty, the cause of today's incident was not serious at first. Mu Cainu just made a slip of the tongue. Now I have learned a lesson. I hope your Majesty will be kind and spare Mu Cainu. It won't be worth it if someone loses his life."
Wang Zhaoyi walked up to Xi Qian, pinched her chin and said, "What does the fate of a Cai Nu mean? As long as I am willing, what will happen if I kill you too?"
"Mom, please calm down. Although the girls are of low status, they are still princesses of the same country. If this matter arouses the suspicion of the two countries, it is not worth it." Xi Qian endured the pain on her jaw, thinking that the daughter of Jiangmen is indeed very strong.
"Two countries?" Wang Zhaoyi smiled contemptuously, "Are you worthy of being a country in front of me, the Jiang Kingdom? Come and fight with me!"
Seeing this, Xuechun hurriedly stood in front of Xi Qian and said, "My dear, if you want to hit me, just hit me."
"You are really a loyal girl who protects the Lord. Beat them all!" Wang Zhaoyi gave the order, and several palace maids held Xi Qian and Xuechun down tightly.
"Everyone stop it!" A majestic male voice sounded from behind everyone.
Xi Qian was surprised to see that the man who was peeking behind the rockery with her just now actually spoke to Wang Zhaoyi in a commanding tone. Could it be that he was Yu Wen Haoxuan? Xue Chun on the side was so surprised that his jaw dropped.
On the ground.
Wang Zhaoyi, who was originally domineering, suddenly changed into a charming and gentle face, and said softly: "Why is the emperor free to come to the harem today?"
"If I don't come, I'm afraid someone will really die." Yuwen Haoxuan looked at the frightened people on the ground and said with a smile.
"The younger sisters just entered the palace and don't know the rules. I'm just giving them a little punishment."
"A little punishment?" Yuwen Haoxuan looked at Mu Yixuan, whose mouth was full of blood, and questioned Wang Zhaoyi's statement.
"It's because the slaves were a little more ruthless." Wang Zhaoyi explained, turning around and saying to the palace maid who was palming her: "If you don't slap me yourself, who told you to be so ruthless?"
"That's it!" Yu Wen Haoxuan waved his hand to stop the palace maid from punishing herself, and turned to look at Xi Qian who was kneeling aside, "What's your name?"
Although Xi Qian was a little uneasy, she did not lose her etiquette and said, "When I return to the Emperor, my concubine's name will be Xi Qian."
"Xixian? The princess of Ningguo?"
"Yes!" Xi Qian didn't dare to raise her head, her eyes only stared at the blue bricks on the ground.
Yuwen Haoxuan was a little surprised. He vaguely remembered that Emperor Ning Guo was a lustful and cowardly old man. He didn't expect to give birth to such a bold and elegant daughter.
"You are really brave to stand up and help her. You are worthy of praise. I will make you a sixth-grade Baolin!" Yu Wen Haoxuan said with admiration.
"Your Majesty, how can she be promoted to a higher rank before she is a bedchamber? Wouldn't this disrupt the order of the harem?" Wang Zhaoyi hurriedly came out to stop her. The emperor named a person in front of everyone who she wanted to teach her how to stand in the harem in the future.
Power.
"Wang Zhaoyi doesn't think it's appropriate? Then let's get a fifth-grade talent!"
"Your Majesty, the rules must not be messed up!" Wang Baoluo was shocked. It seemed that the Emperor was not going to give her this face.
"A true fourth-grade beauty!" Yuwen Haoxuan said with an increasingly expressionless expression.
Wang Baoluo did not dare to use her own face to compete with the emperor's majesty, otherwise she would really not be able to gain a foothold in the harem.
"Since the emperor has made up his mind, how can I object? As long as you are happy." Wang Baoluo laughed beside him.
"Liu Maolin!" Yuwen Haoxuan shouted, and a eunuch trotted up to him.
"Inform the palaces, the Jin Dynasty conferred Xi Cai's daughter as Xi Beauty, move in???" Yu Wen Haoxuan thought for a moment and said: "Li Zhaoyuan's Wanyun Palace!"
"My slave obeys the order!" After Liu Maolin received the order and left, Xi Qian was still kneeling on the spot, wondering how she became a beauty.
Xuechun gently pulled her sleeves from the side and reminded in a low voice: "Princess, please thank me quickly!" Only then did Xiqian realize that she was so engrossed in her thoughts that she even forgot to thank her.
"Concubine, thank you for your grace." Xi Qian leaned over and knelt on the ground to thank her.
"You all get up. Today's business ends here. If there is a next time, just go back and forth from where you came!" Yu Wen Haoxuan finished his words coldly, scaring everyone so much that they didn't dare to breathe.
"Your Majesty, the ice sculptures in Chunhua Garden have been repaired, why don't you accompany me to take a look!" Wang Baoluo said coquettishly.
"Okay, let's go."
Yuwen Haoxuan and Wang Baoluo turned around and left. Xiqian breathed a sigh of relief and raised her head to look at their backs, but her eyes met Wang Baoluo's malicious eyes.
Xiqian's heart skipped a beat and she quickly lowered her head. The contact at that moment made her feel a little scared.
