Chapter 191 I'm sleepy, I'm giving you a pillow
"Isn't it just a kick? I apologized, I gave you tea, and I even bumped into a pillar and was unconscious for two days. How can a grown man be so petty? You won't stop until you take me back and torture me, right?"
Chu Liuzheng cursed in his heart and was about to turn back to find Wei Mingliang to ask for clarification, but Chen Xing came hurriedly.
"Stop!" The follower stretched out his hand to stop him, but unexpectedly Chen Xing pushed him back, causing him to stagger. If he had not hurriedly grabbed the fence, he would have fallen out.
"Your Highness, be well." Chen Xing bowed to Wei Mingliang and reached out to grab Chu Liuzheng's wrist. "Why are you here, sister? It's so hard to find you. His Majesty is calling you."
[Isn't the tyrant listening to the fake princess's revelations? Why are you looking for me? ]
Chu Liuzheng felt strange, but he dared not delay since the emperor had summoned him, so he had to stop and ask Wei Mingliang for clarification before leaving with Chen Xing.
As he passed by his follower, Chen Xing quickly stepped on him and made a face at him.
The follower felt as if his instep was run over by a huge rock. He was in pain and angry, his face flushed red, but he couldn't take action in public.
Wei Mingliang stared at the two women's backs as they walked away and called his followers over.
The attendant trotted over and bowed to receive the order.
Wei Mingliang motioned him to come closer, whispered a few words in his ear, and warned him: "Make sure you get it done, otherwise I will behead you."
"Yes, sir."
On the other side, Chen Xing's speed slowed down after he walked out of the sight of Wei Mingliang and his servant.
Chu Liuzheng was held by her wrist, and when she slowed down, Chu Liuzheng naturally slowed down as well.
She asked doubtfully, "Didn't His Majesty summon you urgently?"
"I lied to him." Chen Xing tilted his head and smiled slyly, "If I didn't say that, how could I have pulled my sister away?"
[Ah, to speak so lightly of the false imperial decree, you are indeed a secret guard!]
Chu Liuzheng thought about the last time when he and Yuzhui falsely conveyed the imperial edict but were immediately caught by the real owner, and he couldn't help but sigh that people are really not comparable.
She warned him, "Forget it this time, but never say that again. If others knew about it, it would cause a huge disaster."
"I know how serious this is. I'm so happy that my sister cares about me so much." Chen Xing held Chu Liuzheng's arm and rubbed his face against her shoulder, looking like a fluffy cat, quite cute.
Chu Liuzheng raised his hand and poked her soft white cheek through the gauze.
Chen Xing smiled and moved his face closer, meaning, just poke it.
Chu Liuzheng was not polite and really raised his hand to poke him again.
[According to the family letter and the system, Xin'er's personality should be somewhat similar to Chenxing's.]
Thinking of the little girl who was coiled on the pillar like a monkey that day, Chu Liuzheng couldn't help but smile, and under Chen Xing's surprised gaze, he poked her cheek for the third time.
Chen Xing blinked, "Sister, are you so happy because of the Second Prince?"
"Huh?" Chu Liuzheng was so shocked that he almost choked on his saliva.
[What does my happiness have to do with that butterfly?]
"It seems not, then it must be because of me." Chen Xing's dimples appeared again. "Sister, the Second Prince is a hooligan. He wanted to bully you last time. Don't talk to him alone in the future. He's obviously not a good person. Don't fall for his tricks."
Chu Liuzheng laughed and teased her: "It's obvious that he's not a good person. Then who looks like a good person?"
"Of course it's Your Majesty." Chen Xing answered without hesitation, "There is no one better than Your Majesty in this world."
Chu Liuzheng: “…”
[Chen Xing's filter for Tyrant is at least eighteen layers, right? I admit that Tyrant is a good boss, but is he a good person... Haha, I won't comment.]
Chen Xing tilted his head and looked at her: "What do you think, sister?"
"I think..." Chu Liuzheng said in a long tone, "I have to tell Siyue what you just said and let her hear it too."
"Sister also thinks that His Majesty is a good person, so he won't be angry with me because of this." Chen Xing wrinkled his nose at Chu Liuzheng, feeling quite fearless.
Chu Liuzheng just said that. Just as he was about to tease her again, Xiao Anzi came over hurriedly and said, "Miss Liuzheng, His Majesty has summoned you. Come with me."
[How did this fake thing become true? ]
"I'll go back to the tea room and wait for my sister." Chen Xing let go of Chu Liuzheng's arm and went back to the tea room.
As Chu Liuzheng and Xiao Anzi walked towards the main hall, he asked, "Eunuch An, do you know why His Majesty summoned me?"
Xiao Anzi shook his head: "Master asked me to come find you, saying that His Majesty has summoned me. I can't really tell you why, but you'll know when you go."
Chu Liuzheng nodded, and when he arrived at the entrance of the main hall, it was closed.
[We're still talking, why did you ask me to come over? ]
She was confused in her heart, but did not show it on her face.
Zhou Yuande was waiting at the door. When he saw her coming, he didn't ask her to come in, but just asked her to wait at the door.
Chu Liuzheng waited patiently.
The wind was strong here, with several gusts of cold wind blowing over. Her nose felt itchy and she sneezed loudly.
[As I recover from this injury, my body becomes weaker and weaker.]
Chu Liuzheng sniffed and looked towards the door.
The door opened from the inside and Princess Goryeo walked out.
She was pale and dazed, and almost tripped over her skirt as she stepped over the threshold.
"Princess, be careful." Zhou Yuande immediately reached out to help her and did not let go until Princess Goryeo stood firmly.
After this incident, Princess Goryeo was no longer distracted. She thanked Zhou Yuande and was led by Xiao Anzi to find Yin Taiyu.
Chu Liuzheng looked at her back, frowning slightly.
[Tsk tsk, what on earth did the tyrant say to the fake princess? He made her so distraught. Did he make some incredibly unbelievable request?]
She was just about to read the content of their conversation when Zhou Yuande urged her, "Go in quickly, young lady."
She had no choice but to give up and go into the palace to meet the emperor first.
"Your Majesty, may you be well."
Xiao Jingfan put down his brush and looked up at her: "Get up."
Chu Liuzheng stood up as he was told, his eyelashes half-closed, staring at the ground politely.
Xiao Jingfan's eyes were calm, and his compelling gaze wandered over Chu Liuzheng with implicit scrutiny.
"I haven't done anything. The only thing I have to do with the tyrant is my wealth... Wait! Could it be that the tyrant is thinking it's too much of a loss to pay out of his own pocket and is planning to withdraw the subsidy?"
Chu Liuzheng's heart beat faster and he felt very nervous.
[No, I haven't even received a single penny!]
Xiao Jingfan: "..."
He tapped the desk with his fingers and said, "Look up and answer."
【Oh~ My family background! 】
Chu Liuzheng was crying in his heart, but he looked up as he was told. According to the rules, he could not look directly into the emperor's eyes, so he only looked at his slightly furrowed brows and high nose bridge.
Xiao Jingfan stared into her watery almond eyes and asked, "What did the Second Prince say to you?"
【Well, that’s why.】
It was a false alarm and Chu Liuzheng breathed a sigh of relief.
She was not surprised why the emperor knew this. After all, the Yangxin Palace was the emperor's territory and he had many spies.
Besides, how can we not send more people to keep an eye on a guy like Wei Mingliang who loves to stir up trouble?
She was just worrying about how to dissuade Wei Mingliang from taking her back to Xixia. Now Xiao Jingfan's question was like a pillow thrown to her when she was sleepy.
"Your Majesty, the Second Prince said he wants to take me back to Xixia." Chu Liuzheng knelt down. "I don't know why, but I don't want to leave my homeland. I beg Your Majesty to grant this request."
