When Guo Cairen heard Xiao Hanyi say this, she felt warm in her heart and was so moved that she almost cried. Who said Xiao Hanyi was a tyrant?

He is obviously very gentle. She was the wife chosen to enter the palace when the emperor ascended the throne. She was only fourteen years old at that time. It has been eight years this year, and she has only had contact with Xiao Hanyi once.

It was the time when she was favored. Xiao Hanyi's actions were very rough. She was afraid and endured it the whole time. Later, when she became pregnant, she didn't dare to mention it to others. Today was the third time she met Xiao Hanyi.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

She tried hard to steady her heartbeat so that her words would not tremble so much, but she was nervous, scared and moved.

"You seem to be very afraid of me?" Xiao Hanyi saw that she looked cautious.

Why? Although he sometimes kills people, he is very gentle to everyone in the harem. Why would you be afraid of him?

He couldn't figure it out.

"You are a tyrant. Of course my mother is afraid. Do you have any self-awareness? How dare you ask me this?"

Everyone in the palace is giving you face. You really don't know how cruel you are.

Xiao Hanyi's face turned cold. This little kid really dared to say anything.

Guo Cairen retracted his head into his neck, nodded, and then shook his head.

Is she afraid?

Xiao Hanyi's mouth twitched twice and he tried hard to put on a smile. He didn't like such a timid girl. He liked girls like Concubine Heng who were straightforward and spicy.

There was no way. He really needed the child in Guo Cairen's belly right now.

"Sit next to me," Xiao Hanyi pointed to the seat next to him.

Guo Cairen walked over and sat down, took the tea handed to her by the palace maid and drank it herself.

Xiao Hanyi called Eunuch Zhao forward, "Go to the Ministry of Punishment in person and see if they have found anything. Tell them that it doesn't matter what method they use."

Eunuch Zhao bowed and said, "Yes"

After saying this, he left the Weiyang Palace and headed towards the Ministry of Punishment.

Xiao Hanyi called the secret guard in again and whispered a few words in his ear. The secret guard bowed and said, "Yes."

[Hey, why is my tyrant father silent? Why is my mother also silent? Oh, I'm so hungry. My mother didn't eat anything at the banquet just now. I'm starving.]

Xiao Hanyi frowned. How could a fetus be hungry?

"I'm hungry, bring me some food," he ordered.

It’s hard to say, you can eat as much as you want.

After a while, a table full of food was placed in front of Guo Cairen.

Guo Cairen had never eaten so much food before. She felt hungry just by looking at it. She secretly took the shredded chicken on the table and stuffed it into her mouth. Wow, what kind of shredded chicken is this?

So delicious!

She pursed her lips and swallowed. She was indeed hungry.

Guo Cairen secretly looked up at the emperor again. Can she eat it?

Xiao Hanyi noticed Guo Cairen's little tricks and couldn't help laughing. This Guo Cairen was too cute.

He moved the food towards Guo Cairen and said, "Eat, don't be polite."

[You're welcome? My tyrant father, you're the emperor. That's so, so funny. Do national leaders always speak so, so close to the people?]

Daddy, I like you a little bit now.

Xiao Hanyi turned his head. He didn't want Guo Cairen to see the smile on his face.

He picked up a book and started reading, but he was wondering whether the secret guards could find any evidence at Zhao Fulai's residence.

If Zhao Fulai was a spy from another country, he would definitely contact his motherland, and if he did, there would definitely be clues.

Xiao Hanyi's heart grew heavier, and his brows were twisted like a small stone.

Guo Cairen had never eaten such delicious food before and couldn't stop eating it.

Her father was just a small scholar, and her family was barely well-off. After entering the palace, she became a lady of the lowest rank. Now that she was pregnant, she was getting even hungrier, and now she was eating without recognizing any relatives.

The secret guard came back with a letter and a waist badge with the Xiliang logo in his hand. "Master, this was found in Eunuch Zhao's room."

When he presented the thing to Xiao Hanyi, murderous intent suddenly appeared in Xiao Hanyi's eyes. He took it and glanced at it. It was the correspondence between Zhao Fulai and the King of Beiliang.

Guo Cairen was extremely hungry, and the food was so delicious that she ate with relish, completely unaware of the anger emanating from Xiao Hanyi.

Eunuch Zhao came back trotting. As soon as he entered the hall, he felt a very obvious murderous aura. He glanced at Xiao Hanyi's face again and his heart trembled. He had to be very careful on duty today.

"Your Majesty, there is no news from the Ministry of Punishment yet."

He replied respectfully.

[There's definitely no news. These dancers all took poison before they came here, and I'm guessing the poison is about to take effect. They came here with the belief that they will die. They are also a group of warriors.]

Xiao Hanyi's face turned even darker, and a surge of anger rose up. He tried hard to suppress the anger and decided not to deal with Eunuch Zhao for the time being, so as not to alert the enemy.

"Cough cough," Guo Cairen might have eaten too fast and choked, so she coughed twice.

At this time, a palace maid came over with tea. Zhao Fulai hurriedly took it and respectfully presented it to Concubine Guo, saying, "Concubine Guo, please have a cup of tea."

Xiao Hanyi was so devoted to Lady Guo, so he had to serve her well. Zhao Fulai thought, the saying "serving a king is like serving a tiger" is true. He couldn't tell why he was unhappy, but he didn't dare to ask.

Concubine Guo carefully took the tea from Zhao Fulai. Her position was too low. Although she had the title of lady in the palace, her life was far worse than that of the people around the real master. She had never dared to expect Zhao Fulai to serve her before.

"Ah!" Guo Cairen cried out in pain as soon as he took a sip, and spilled the tea.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?"

Xiao Hanyi became even more annoyed. He couldn't even handle such a small matter. He glared at Zhao Fulai fiercely.
