"So, you're saying that the little princess deliberately abandoned you and almost caused you to get into trouble? Is that what you mean?"

At this time, Emperor Cheng Xuan asked in a calm tone.

"Lian Bao, Lian Bao, that's not what I mean."

Lianbao was young but very good at reading people's expressions. She quickly changed the subject and said, "Perhaps the little princess had other things to attend to, so she left Lianbao behind. Please calm down, Your Majesty. Lianbao believes that the little princess definitely didn't abandon Lianbao on purpose..."

However, after all was said and done, she was still firmly convinced that it was Xiao Shuangbao who drove her out of the carriage.

Abandoning a four-year-old child on the street is certainly a bad behavior.

But the problem is, Frostbao would never do that.

Emperor Chengxuan firmly believed in this.

"Really? Then do you know why Shuangbao left you alone? Did she tell you what she was going to do?"

At this time, he pretended to believe Lianbao's words and asked.

"This... the little princess doesn't like Lianbao and has never told Lianbao about it. However, Lianbao accidentally overheard the little princess telling someone that she had met a long-lost relative and was going to go find that relative."

Lian Bao lied here, "Your Majesty, the little princess may miss her family. Maybe she just wants to see them and then come back. Please don't worry."

She knew in her heart that Xiao Shuangbao was locked up by Tang Defan and would never come back.

So they wanted to use such words to mislead Emperor Cheng Xuan, making him think that Xiao Shuangbao had run away with the so-called relatives.

Emperor Chengxuan naturally didn't believe that Xiao Shuangbao would do such a thing.

But he was still a little worried. Could it be that Yun Wuchen was unwilling to give up and came back to secretly take Shuangbao away?

But Xiao Shuangbao is always surrounded by secret guards. If something really happens to her, the secret guards will not remain silent.

Emperor Chengxuan thought about this and fell silent for a while.

When Lianbao saw this, he thought that he believed what he said.

"Your Majesty, the little princess is young after all, and it is understandable that she wants to find her relatives. Just like Lian Bao, she only wants to be with her mother. I also hope that Your Majesty will forgive the little princess for leaving without saying goodbye and not be angry with her."

As Lianbao spoke, he gave his mother a look.

Zhao Yang'er understood what she meant and her face turned red.

"Your Majesty, Lianbao is right. Even if the little princess's behavior of leaving without saying goodbye and abandoning Lianbao in the street is wrong, you should not get angry, lest you hurt yourself..."

As Zhao Yang'er spoke, she cautiously approached Emperor Cheng Xuan, wanting to take this opportunity to get close to him.

However, before her hands could touch Emperor Cheng Xuan's arm, she was kicked away by Emperor Cheng Xuan.

"ah!"

Zhao Yanger screamed!

Lianbao was shocked watching from the side!

"You are so bold and unruly! Shuangbao is a princess of noble birth, how dare you slander her!"

Emperor Cheng Xuan's face was as cold as ice, and he looked coldly at the beautiful woman who was kicked to the ground by him.

"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me! How dare I slander the little princess?"

Zhao Yang'er burst into tears instantly, crying like a pear blossom in the rain, looking delicate and lovely.

However, Emperor Chengxuan looked at her, but his heart was not moved at all.

There are three thousand beauties in the harem. What kind of beauty has he not seen?

What's more, he is not a lustful person.

Someone like Zhao Yang'er couldn't shake him at all.

"Your Majesty, calm down! Mother didn't mean that!"

Lianbao's face was pale, with a hint of fear in her big eyes. She imitated Shuangbao's usual soft and sticky tone and looked at him pitifully, "Your Majesty, mother only wanted to comfort you. Can you please not be angry with her? Please."

She really dreamed of replacing Xiao Shuangbao, becoming Emperor Cheng Xuan's daughter, and being loved by him.

It is obvious that she is no worse than Xiao Shuangbao.

She is very confident in her appearance, cuteness and well-behavedness.

At this moment, Lianbao fantasized that what she said would make Emperor Chengxuan fall in love with her, instantly forget about Xiaoshuangbao, and pamper her like his own daughter, holding her and coaxing her.

But the next moment, she saw a look of sarcasm on Emperor Cheng Xuan's cold and handsome face.

"Who do you think you are to beg for mercy in front of me?"

Emperor Cheng Xuan spoke very harshly, "Do you really think I'm a fool?

"I'm telling you, if Shuangbao doesn't return safely, neither of you will be able to leave the palace alive!"

As soon as he said this.

Zhao Yang'er and Lian Bao's faces turned even paler in an instant!

What does the emperor mean by this?

Why should they, mother and daughter, die if Xiao Shuangbao can’t come back?

"Your Majesty, the little princess has not returned to the palace. This has nothing to do with me and Lian Bao!"

Zhao Yanger said angrily.

"Your Majesty, do you hate Lianbao so much that you wish she were dead? How is Lianbao inferior to the little princess? Is it because she is the daughter of the God of War?"

Lianbao also said unwillingly.

"Now that you mention it, I'm actually a little curious."

Emperor Cheng Xuan walked up to her, his tall figure carrying the oppressive power unique to an emperor, looking down at her condescendingly. "Where do you get all this confidence from? You actually think you can be compared to Shuang Bao? Hmm?"

Lianbao was actually a little scared.

The emperor in front of him was not just a deterrent.

But the more this happened, the more she longed for it.

Being favored by such an emperor means that she is the most noble person in the Kingdom of Dongqi!

"Your Majesty, don't you just like her cute looks and sweet words to please you? Plus, her father once saved your life. You only think highly of her because of the God of War Su Liao!"

At this time, Lian Bao clenched his fists and said in a rather unconvinced tone, "But, as the emperor's subject, Su Liao's duty is to protect the emperor. This is not something that the emperor should be grateful for!

"Your Majesty, there's no need to think too highly of the little princess because of Su Liao!"

When Emperor Chengxuan heard her say this, he immediately laughed.

When Lianbao saw him smile, she felt happy at first, thinking that her words touched his heart. Maybe he thought so too, but he had to be nice to Xiaoshuangbao because of his reputation.

But the next moment, she saw the smile on Cheng Xuan Di Jun's face become as cold and sharp as a knife...

"So, this is how you view Shuangbao."

The corners of Emperor Cheng Xuan's cold mouth curled up slightly, and the contempt in his eyes solidified into reality, like a mountain, instantly pressing Lian Bao to the point where he couldn't breathe.

She still clenched her fists and stood there with a look of defiance on her face.

"I tell you, Shuangbao is the most unique child in the world. I dote on Shuangbao not because she is Su Liao's daughter, nor because she is so talented in fortune-telling and catching ghosts at such a young age.

"I dote on Shuangbao simply because she is Shuangbao. I treat her as my own daughter, connected by blood!

"This alone is unmatched by anything else!"
