Chapter 157: Arriving in the Capital for the First Time and Attacking the Nobles



"Don't hide anything." Zhu Youxiao reached out and touched Li Chengcheng's face, saying gently, "You must be feeling uncomfortable because of what you're holding back, right?"

Li Chengcheng glanced at the emperor and was touched by his gentle and easygoing attitude. She smiled sheepishly, lifted her skirt and knelt down, bowing her head and begging, "Your Majesty, I dare to ask for mercy. Please don't expel Fan Xiaohui from the palace, okay?"

Who is Fan Xiaohui? When will I drive her out of the palace? Zhu Youxiao was a little confused.

Li Chengcheng lowered his head and continued, "Fan Xiaohui is a very good person. She has never made any mistakes in the palace for many years..."

Looking at the girl begging pitifully, Zhu Youxiao stroked his forehead and figured out what was going on.

Among the people Wang Tigan had just mentioned about sending out of the palace, there must be someone called Fan Xiaohui. And Fan Xiaohui must be a good friend of Li Chengcheng, and the girl came to him for help after hearing the news.

"You get up first." Zhu Youxiao was a little helpless. The maid served him wholeheartedly and worked hard, but he couldn't agree immediately whether Fan Xiaohui could stay.

Historically, when Chongzhen was extremely poor, he asked officials and nobles to donate money, but very few people responded positively.

This made Chongzhen want to confiscate the family property and make money, but just as he started, one of his sons died. Chongzhen thought it was a bad omen, so the confiscation of property was aborted.

In the past, Zhu Youxiao might have thought it was just a coincidence, but if it were him, he would never back down because of it.

But now, both of his women are pregnant and are about to become fathers.

After thinking carefully about the incident of Chongzhen's property being confiscated and his son being killed, he was not sure whether there was a conspiracy, or whether it was the work of officials and nobles who killed Chongzhen's son.

Li Chengcheng slowly stood up and looked at the emperor eagerly.

Zhu Youxiao called a palace maid and asked him to inform Wang Tigan to bring Fan Xiaohui to the Qianqing Palace.

Seeing that things had taken a turn for the better, Li Chengcheng smiled and served tea, massaged shoulders and arms, and was very attentive.

Zhu Youxiao let things take their own course and happily enjoyed the girl's tenderness. He felt that if he succeeded, the girl might hug him and give him a few kisses!
