"Your Majesty, I do not agree with what the Concubine Dowager said."
At this time, Chen Cao couldn't bear it any longer, "If the Concubine Tai didn't deliberately frame the little princess, then how did she know that the zither master brother the little princess was referring to was Master Yu?
"You know, there's more than one musician present."
As soon as Concubine Luo saw her speak, a look of contempt immediately appeared on her well-maintained face.
"Since when has a mere guard like you been able to interrupt the Emperor while he is talking to me?" she sarcastically said.
"I have overstepped the bounds. Please forgive me, Your Majesty." Chen Cao immediately admitted his mistake.
She spoke only to prevent everyone from being misled by Concubine Luo's words.
She didn't care about receiving a word or two of punishment.
"Sister Chen Cao is a guard, so guards can't speak?"
At this time, Little Shuangbao said in confusion, "But Lady Dowager, you just keep talking?"
"Ridiculous! The rule of this palace is that servants cannot interrupt when the master is speaking!" Concubine Luo frowned and scolded.
"Sister Chen Cao didn't interrupt either, because when she was speaking, Daddy and the Queen Dowager had already finished speaking." Xiao Shuangbao said very seriously.
Concubine Luo choked suddenly.
She immediately glared at Xiao Shuangbao fiercely.
Emperor Chengxuan was originally a little annoyed by Concubine Luo's repeated unreasonable harassment.
But at this moment, he was suddenly amused by Xiao Shuangbao's innocent words.
However, if we must involve Zhongli Yu, and say in front of everyone that Southern Yan is an enemy of Eastern Qi, this behavior is indeed inappropriate.
You know, Dongqi and Nanyan are now in a cooperative relationship, at least on the surface.
If Concubine Luo continues to make a fuss about this matter, it will destroy the current peaceful alliance between Dongqi and Southern Yan.
If the Northern Rong knew about this, they would definitely take advantage of the situation.
"Didn't Toffee get enough rest today? Is she constantly overly nervous and suspicious of this and that?"
Emperor Cheng Xuan couldn't bear to listen any longer and finally spoke.
On the one hand, he wanted to consolidate the relationship with the Kingdom of Southern Yan, and on the other hand, he decided to stand up for the little baby.
I only heard him say in a light tone:
"Master Yu came to the palace banquet at my invitation, Shuangbao had no idea about it beforehand.
"As for Chen Cao, I also arranged for her to protect Shuangbao.
"According to what the Concubine said, then it is entirely reasonable to suspect that I was the one who orchestrated this conspiracy, right?"
He said this.
Concubine Luo's expression changed slightly. She didn't expect that Emperor Cheng Xuan would direct the suspicion directly onto herself.
He was determined to protect Zhongli Yu and Xiao Shuangbao!
"Your Majesty, that's not what I meant."
That was all she could say.
"That's good." Emperor Cheng Xuan nodded, and then said, "If the Concubine Dowager is tired, she should go back and rest.
"I have already handed this matter over to the Dali Temple's Shaoqing for investigation.
"Also, I'm saying this for the last time: the harem is not allowed to discuss state affairs!
"Also, I don't think Shuangbao is so young that he would collude with an eight-year-old hostage from another country to plot anything. They are still children and don't have such great abilities.
"Especially Shuangbao. After all the talk, Toffee, didn't you realize that Shuangbao didn't understand the conspiracies you described?"
His words were not without irony.
He just kept saying that Concubine Luo thought too much and even spared no innocent children.
"That's right, Madam Dowager, Shuangbao doesn't understand. Could you please not talk about such complicated things next time?"
Little Shuangbao quickly nodded his head in agreement.
They sang in unison, one big and one small.
Concubine Luo was humiliated.
However, Emperor Chengxuan has given her enough face today.
If she doesn't know when to stop, she will arouse Emperor Cheng Xuan's disgust.
"I'm old, I'm old, I can't control my chatter. I'm just meddling in other people's business today. Never mind. I've had a few drinks, my mind is muddled, and my body isn't feeling well either. I'd better go back and rest early."
As she said this, she immediately stood up and left, holding onto the table.
But this time, Emperor Cheng Xuan did not give Zhou Guisheng a look to ask him to coax others.
"In that case, the Concubine should go back and rest early. I will come to visit you in a few days."
Emperor Chengxuan's attitude of seeing off guests should not be too obvious.
When Concubine Luo stood up, she staggered.
The palace maid accompanying her hurriedly supported her.
She grabbed the palace maid's arm with one hand, and her strength was so strong that she almost squeezed her until she cried out in pain.
The palace maid gritted her teeth, closed her mouth and endured it.
The next moment, Concubine Luo relaxed her grip, left her seat, and walked towards the harem.
However, after taking a few steps, she suddenly turned around and looked in the direction of Xiao Shuangbao with incredible accuracy.
She glanced at Xiao Shuangbao with sharp eyes filled with hostility.
Then, his eyes locked onto the little ball of fur, a gleam of light in his eyes.
It turned out that the Chaos Demon she had been looking for for so long was actually captured by Xiao Shuangbao!
Little Frost Treasure...
Concubine Luo remembered something and was distracted for a moment.
After a moment, she looked at Xiao Shuangbao again, and finally walked away with an unwilling look on her face.
Qin Cheng saw this scene in the dark.
He held his chin, looked in the direction where Concubine Luo disappeared, and remained silent with a thoughtful look on his face.
