"How could this be..."

Hui Meiren twisted her handkerchief in her hand, knowing that she couldn't escape a beating today. She looked at Helian Si, who was being held by Yue'er, with resentment in her eyes.

Helian Si shook his little head, looking rather like a little old man disappointed in his son. "Tell me, tell me," he said.

If you're going to glare at someone, at least do it before they can't see you. If you're going to say you're a little darling with a belly bigger than the Prime Minister, then if it were anyone else, wouldn't such a glare definitely result in a few more slaps?

The little girl sighed in a precocious manner, "Oh, Sister Yue'er, please put me down."

Although Yue'er was scared, she knew that the Emperor had backed her up, so they would not dare to make things difficult for the little princess. She obediently put Helian Si down.

The little girl toddled over to a pear wood chair, wriggled her little body, and whimpered as she climbed onto it.

She picked up a smooth, shiny feather duster from the table, blinked her grape-like eyes, and revealed a mischievous grin with her pointed little fangs.

He beckoned to Granny Cai, and when Granny Cai came over, he handed her the feather duster.

Her watery eyes blinked, and her sweet, soft voice rang out, "Grandma, spank my bottom until tears stream down my face!"

The princess's smug and mischievous expression made Granny Cai's face twitch. "This old servant will obey the little princess's orders."

He turned to leave after saying that, but his sleeve was grabbed by a pair of small, short hands. Turning back, he met the little girl's mischievous little expression.

Granny Cai's face twitched again, but Helian Si kept saying that his father had summoned her, so Granny Cai had no choice but to patiently speak.

"Does the little princess have anything else to instruct this old servant?"

The little girl tilted her head, her eyes crinkling with laughter, and said, "Granny, you can't be biased, okay? Otherwise, Sisi will write it all down and tell Father Emperor!"

Look and listen!

What does it mean to have the softest, most innocent face, the sweetest, most gentle voice, and to say the most threatening things?

That's it!

Granny Cai's eyelids twitched violently. "This old servant understands."

Finally, the little girl flashed two sharp little tiger teeth at the pale-faced beauty, her smile incredibly sweet.

"Don't be afraid, you naughty beauty. Although being spanked in public is embarrassing, Sisi will never laugh at you~"

The little girl's voice rose at the end, clearly she was overjoyed. Hoo hoo hoo, the bad girl is going to get a spanking!

Hmph, so you regretted trying to bully Sisi that day, didn't you? You're desperate now, aren't you? Hehehe~!

Hui Meiren's face had turned a deep purple with anger, but despite this, she dared not retaliate because of Helian Nie's infamous reputation.

Looking at Wen Changle with a wronged expression, Wen Changle sighed and considerately waved away the palace servants so that Consort Hui wouldn't lose face.

Hui Meiren: "..." No, sister, that's not what I meant.

Wen Changle: No, little sister, that's what you mean. This is all I can do for you. Rest in peace on your journey.

Soon, the cries of pain from Consort Hui echoed through Ronghua Palace. They were so heart-wrenching, so tragic, like a mournful tale of a hero going forth never to return.

Of course, besides Hui Meiren's heart-wrenching cries of pain, there were also the rhythmic, sweet, and soft cheers of a little girl.

"Go, Granny! Go, Granny! One, two, three, four, one more time, hey ya~!"

This afternoon at Ronghua Palace was destined to be extraordinary.
