Chapter 2127: One sentence affects many lives
But he didn't dare to argue, so he could only lie on the ground and say, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."
“…”
Zhu Feng looked at his daughter. Not to mention that she was a tyrant in the palace, how could a cautious official like Liu Yueze dare to lay a hand on her? Just look at her riding on someone's back, like Wu Song fighting a tiger, and crying that someone had hit her...
Zhu Feng walked over and gently tried to pick her up: "Xinping, get up."
"Father, wuwu..."
Xin Ping cried out of grievance, though not a single tear shed: "He hit me."
"Okay, he's wrong, he's bad, father will help you deal with him."
"Woo woo woo."
After hearing this, she stretched out her hands and was held in Zhu Feng's arms.
Liu Yueze was hit on the lower back by the fleshy princess. He wanted to stand up and salute the emperor immediately, but his face turned pale as he moved.
Zhu Feng looked down at him: "What's wrong?"
"Your humble servant, your humble servant..."
Liu Yueze broke out in a cold sweat.
I have caused Her Royal Highness the Princess to suffer so much. Everyone knows that the Emperor is very obedient to the Princess. Now, I don’t know what punishment I will receive.
Unfortunately, my waist hurts so much that I can't move.
He couldn't even offer a token of apology.
Seeing him like this, Zhu Feng's face was gloomy, but there was also a hint of a smile that he couldn't hide. On the contrary, Xin Ping was stunned and looked at him with wide eyes: "What's wrong with you?"
"My lord, my lord——"
Liu Yueze wanted to say something, but he was in so much pain that he couldn't even speak.
Zhu Feng suppressed a laugh and said, "You guys, take him to the room over there, and call Wu Xueyi over."
Several palace maids hurried there.
They helped Liu Yueze to the room over there and let him lie on the bed for the palace servants to rest. After a while, a tall and strong man came over.
This person is Wu Xueyi.
He used to fight in wars beside Zhu Feng and did not like being an official. After Zhu Feng ascended the throne, he made him a commander under Ying Shao. He had a set of bone-setting techniques inherited from his family, which he often used in the army.
Xinping had never seen him.
I just felt that this person was ferocious and scary.
Zhu Feng whispered a few words to him, and Wu Xueyi immediately followed his instructions and walked into the room, closing the door.
Xinping opened his eyes wide and said in a panic, "Father, what are you doing?"
Zhu Feng glanced at her.
He said, "Didn't you say he hit you? Father will help you punish him."
As soon as the voice fell, a shrill scream came from the room: "Ah——"
Xinping was terrified.
He didn't expect that his father would actually punish him just because he lied.
She nestled in Zhu Feng's arms blankly, listening to screams coming from inside, her eyes widened with fear.
At this time, Wu Xueyi's voice came: "Hold on, the Emperor and the Princess are still here!"
As soon as the words fell, the voice stopped abruptly.
But then there was a very suppressed low cry, like the sound of someone who was in great pain but didn't dare to open his mouth, and could only bite the pillow to endure it.
But Xinping finally couldn't bear it anymore and hurriedly said to Zhu Feng, "Father, please let him go."
Zhu Feng said seriously, "No, Xinping is my most beloved baby. How could I let this bastard off so easily when he dared to hit you?"
"Father..."
Xinping was shocked and frightened, and finally cried, "I lied, father, please don't punish him."
Zhu Feng turned his head and looked at her.
This time, Xinping really cried.
Fear and guilt filled her, tears rolling down her cheeks, making her look both pitiful and adorable. Zhu Feng's expression softened uncontrollably, and he extended his big thumb to wipe away her tears: "Really?"
"Um."
"Then why do you say he hit you?"
"I, I want him to take me out of the palace to find my little sister."
“…”
"Brother only smiles when he is with his little sister. If his little sister is not around, brother won't smile at all."
“…”
"Xinping wants his brother to be happy."
Hearing her say this, any remaining anger I had towards my child for lying disappeared at that moment.
Zhu Feng's heart was already softened. He hugged his daughter and said softly, "My Xinping is such a good sister."
“…”
"But no matter how you want to help your brother, you can't lie."
“…”
"You are a princess. Your words affect the lives of many people. If you lie, others will suffer because of you. Do you understand?"
Xinping nodded vigorously, tears in his eyes: "I understand."
At this time, the matter in the row house was also finished.
Wu Xueyi came out and said to Zhu Feng, "Your Majesty, I'm fine now."
Zhu Feng asked, "How is he?"
"It's just a sprain. I'll be fine after a good rest."
"Okay, go down."
"I will take my leave."
After he left, Zhu Feng carried Xinping into the ward. Liu Yueze was lying on the bed almost dying. Wu Xueyi's grip was very strong. He almost felt like he was going to be broken into two pieces.
But as soon as he saw the emperor and princess come in, he hurriedly stood up again.
"Your humble servant—"
"Okay, lie down."
Zhu Feng said calmly, "Rest for a while, and leave the palace when you're all right."
Liu Yueze said cautiously, "Thank you, Your Majesty. Your Majesty's grace is beyond my ability to repay."
Zhu Feng said, "Nothing to repay you? I have something to tell you."
"What are your Majesty's orders?"
"Let's not talk about this for now. Xinping has something to say."
As he said that, he let Xinping walk over by herself. Xinping stood by the bed, timidly showing a pair of big eyes, and whispered softly: "Are you still in pain?"
Liu Yueze forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. Princess, you jumped down from the wall just now. Are you okay?"
"I'm fine."
Xin Ping said timidly, "I shouldn't have lied to you and made you suffer."
“…”
"sorry."
Liu Yueze said in fear: "How dare I."
Zhu Feng then nodded in satisfaction.
Although he doted on his daughter in every way, he still taught her the basic rules of life.
Such a young child should not be told lies, and she should not be allowed to taste the sweetness of lying.
Now, when she sees others feeling bad because of her lies, it proves that she still feels guilty and is upright in her heart. This is what makes her a good daughter of Zhu Feng.
He stepped forward, patted Xinping on the back, and said, "Okay, go back to Yikun Palace, otherwise your mother will worry about you."
"yes."
Xinping looked at Liu Yueze sweating profusely and reluctantly followed the maids.
After they left, Zhu Feng turned to look at Liu Yueze.
"How is it, can you get up?"
"Your humble servant, your humble servant can do it——"
"Okay,"
Seeing him sweating profusely, Zhu Feng said calmly, "Don't force yourself. Just go home and recuperate for the next few days."
"recuperate?"
Liu Yueze was stunned.
At this time, the emperor should be in need of people, so why is he asking him to recuperate?
