A foolish ruler injures one thousand enemies but loses eight hundred of his own.
A man ran into Xumeng Palace and was depressed for more than an hour.
He picked up the plane and began to plane the wood. Shavings emerged from his hands and soon piled up into a small mountain. He planes the wood flat, marks the lines with an ink fountain, and then uses a saw to cut off the excess edges.
The tools that the people in the palace couldn't name seemed to come alive in the hands of the tyrant, performing their duties perfectly.
The tyrant forgot everything, picked up the chisel and started carving.
Use an axe to knock the deeper ones, and carve the shallower ones carefully.
After Zhang Fujin brought Tianbao back, he was about to go in to report when little Tianbao ran in.
Zhang Fujin hurried after her, calling out softly, "Princess, little princess! No one is allowed to come in without the emperor's permission. Princess, please go out first!"
Tianbao pouted and looked at him sadly, without slowing down her pace at all.
Zhang Fujin wanted to pull her hand, but couldn't bear to pull it back.
He couldn't bear to make such a cute child unhappy.
The main hall of Xumeng Palace has no other rooms except the main beams. Looking around, various woods are placed on the east side, tool racks are on the south side, and the north side is full of finished wooden furniture of various colors: screens, beds, recliners, bamboo horses, dressing boxes...all of them are exquisite and beautiful.
The emperor was concentrating on carving flowers, and a familiar cold voice seemed to echo in his ears: "Your Majesty has exquisite craftsmanship and is indeed skilled in one skill."
"Just a worthless carpenter."
"What do you mean by unpresentable? This is the emperor's ideal. Everyone needs ideals to avoid being trapped in the cage of a boring life. It is a very fortunate thing to be able to pursue one's own ideals. The emperor is very lucky."
"Do you really think so, my beloved?"
"Of course. Ideals are not divided into high and low. Unique ingenuity requires perseverance, and not everyone has such perseverance. Ideals are pure, so how can they be unacceptable?"
The scene of my heart-to-heart talk with Concubine Dong is still vivid in my mind.
When she said these words, her eyes were sincere, without any flattery.
She was also the only concubine after the Queen who had entered the Sumen Palace.
As early as two years ago, when he saw what she had buried in the ground, the tyrant knew that he had disappointed her terribly, otherwise she would not have buried the things he had made specially for her.
How infuriating! He hasn't figured out what he did wrong in two years, and she actually has someone else in her life?!
"Father~" Along with the babyish voice came the roar of Tianbao's little belly.
Gurgle... Gurgle...
She was almost starving to death. Riding the pony had already drained her of energy, and she had to run around all over again when she came back.
The tyrant shuddered in disbelief, turned his head and looked around. When he saw the sweet little girl in red, he paused. Then, as if still in a dream, he put down the chisel and rubbed his eyes vigorously until they were red.
Tian Bao pouted and walked over to hug him: "Is Father very sad?"
"I'm not sad, I'm not sad. Sweet baby is back obediently. Why should I be sad?" The tyrant emperor laughed and hugged the little guy tightly.
Tian Bao said sullenly: "Father lied to me, and Father is unhappy."
He thought that Xiao Tianbao was also going to mention Concubine Dong, and he couldn't help but frown. He really didn't want to hear anyone speak in Concubine Dong's favor today, of course, even those who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to trample her to death!
"Even if you're not happy, you still have to eat. Being hungry will make you even more unhappy. Tianbao is hungry, and Tianbao is unhappy. Father, can you eat with Tianbao?"
The tyrant emperor had no appetite to begin with, but when he heard that his precious child was hungry, he immediately lost his composure.
He stepped back a foot, brushed off the sawdust on his body, and took her back to Lingxiao Palace.
Soon, a large table of delicacies from land and sea was served.
The first spoonful of food that Tianbao scooped was for the tyrant. It was tender shrimp and egg custard, so fragrant.
The emperor was so moved that tears streamed down his face. He opened his mouth to eat. Seeing that she scooped another spoonful and wanted to eat it herself, he quickly held her little hand and taught her, "Grow up, sweet baby. You must understand the principle of not touching men and women. From now on, you must not feed other men except your husband, and you must not share utensils."
Tian Bao blinked his eyes and asked, "Is it not okay to feed Father, brother, and sister?"
"Well, it's okay with you, Father. Feeding your father proves that your little sweetie is filial. Don't feed those brats. They have hands and mouths and can eat on their own. What I'm saying is, no man other than family members can be fed. Do you understand?"
Tianbao blinked: "I understand!"
That is to say, women other than family members can feed the baby.
So there was nothing wrong with her feeding the fairy sister before!
The cold wind howled outside the palace, and Tian Bao couldn't help but glance outside: "Father, it's cold."
"Tianbao is cold? Heat up the earth dragon..."
Tianbao shook her head: "Tianbao is not cold. The cold palace is very cold. There is no heating, the windows are broken, and the quilts are torn."
The foolish emperor paused, feeling sad: "It's not me who asked her to go, she insisted on going."
"?" Tianbao was stunned. She hadn't fully understood the situation and knew nothing about it.
In any case, the most important thing right now is to please my father.
She curled her lips and said, "Humph! Madam Dong did something wrong, she deserves to be hungry and cold."
"It's hunger and cold." The foolish emperor couldn't help but correct, and then he fell silent again. Listening to the wind, it seemed that it was really cold outside.
He ate the chicken that Tianbao handed over and complained: "Guaiguai also thinks Concubine Dong is so bold?"
Tian Bao guessed that the emperor was asking about a love affair and shook her head: "Empress Dong is brave, but Empress Dong is smart and won't do anything bad. Empress Dong said that everyone should take responsibility first, and then talk about love."
The tyrant emperor showed a confused look: "It is indeed like what she said."
"But Empress Dong made the Emperor unhappy, so she deserves it!" Little Sweetie clenched her fists angrily and glanced outside the palace. "Snow, snow! Frozen Empress Dong to death! Let her learn her lesson! Humph!"
Zhang Fujin was embarrassed and quietly wiped the cold sweat from his palm.
Oh my goodness, when did the little princess learn the emperor's cold-blooded and ruthless ways? Isn't the emperor always very gentle in front of her?
The emperor was also shocked: "Doesn't Tianbao like Concubine Dong very much? How could he bear to let her starve and freeze? It's so cold, I'm afraid she will freeze all night..."
Thinking back to Concubine Dong's face when she left the Snowy Palace, it was as pale as paper. She must have been feeling unwell. If she stayed up all night in the freezing cold, she might... freeze to death?!
The tyrant emperor was a little uneasy.
Tian Bao, however, was like a little devil, and continued in a sinister tone, "Mrs. Dong deserves it. No one else has rumors, but she does. It must be Mrs. Dong's fault!"
"Tianbao heard there's a book written in blood... That's the evidence. A bad woman can write a book in blood even when she's mad. It must be Empress Dong who's even worse. That's why even if the bad woman can't remember Fourth Brother, she can still remember Empress Dong as a bad person!"
"Father, please banish Third Brother to the cold palace as well. Third Brother only looks a little like Father. Who told him to look more like Empress Dong? Third Brother will definitely be a bad boy when he grows up!"
"!!" The tyrant looked at Xiao Tianbao in horror. What happened to his good daughter?
