Chapter 2 Who cares about her broken gold bracelet?

The Western Chu Kingdom was destroyed ten years later?

Emperor Zhaoning was deeply shocked by these words.

As an emperor, this is the most taboo thing.

Regardless of whether what Jiujiu said was true or not, Emperor Zhaoning's usually calm heart suddenly became nervous and he started to take it seriously.

He looked at the guards who were dragging Jiujiu away and said, "Wait a minute." He turned to look at Feng Caiwei and asked, "Weiwei, tell me, what did he steal from you?"

If he really stole it, then kill him.

Feng Caiwei was stunned by the question. What on earth did this brat steal from her? She didn't lose anything. She just said it in a hurry.

When she said this before, the emperor's uncle killed the man without saying a word. Why is he asking so many questions now?

Feng Caiwei was puzzled. She put her hands behind her back, took off a gold bracelet, threw it back, and then rubbed her eyes and cried, "Uncle Huang, after she stole the gold bracelet, she saw me asking about it, so where did she throw it? See?"

Feng Caiwei pointed to a place not far behind her.

The gold bracelet that had just been taken off her hand was lying quietly on the grass not far behind her. In the sunlight, it was shining with golden light and could be seen at a glance.

Emperor Zhaoning frowned as he looked at the gold bracelet.

Jiujiu watched Feng Caiwei's performance and sneered in her heart.

[Haha, who cares about her broken gold bracelet? She obviously threw it away herself.]

[Besides, why did she throw it behind me when there were so many other places to throw it? Anyone with a discerning eye would see that something was wrong, unless some people were blind and couldn't see it.]

Emperor Zhaoning: “…”

He felt implicated.

"Weiwei, I love you so much, I give you whatever you want, but what about you? You lie to me, do you think I'm a fool?" Emperor Zhaoning looked very angry, "You threw that bracelet away yourself."

He is not blind in his eyes and his heart is not blind in his heart.

Fear appeared on Feng Caiwei's chubby face, and she frantically explained: "Uncle Huang, Weiwei really didn't!"

"You're still lying." Emperor Zhaoning was angry. "Do you have to ask me to summon the nearby guards for questioning before you tell the truth?"

Feng Caiwei didn't dare to let Emperor Zhaoning summon the guards. She knelt on the ground and admitted her mistake, "Weiwei was wrong."

Emperor Zhaoning said, "Come here, send Feng Caiwei to the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother has left the palace to pray, her people are still here. Let the people around the Queen Mother teach Feng Caiwei. When she is well educated and no longer tells lies, send her back to Concubine Jiang."

The people around the empress dowager were notoriously ruthless and cruel. When it came to educating the princes and grandchildren, they were no different from educating the palace maids; they were extremely strict and would beat and scold them at any time.

What Feng Caiwei feared most were the people around her grandmother.

When she heard Emperor Zhaoning say that she would be sent to the Empress Dowager's palace, she burst into tears, trying to make Emperor Zhaoning soften his heart and change his mind.

But she cried for a long time and her voice broke. The Emperor Zhaoning, who always pitied her and didn't want her to cry and always responded to her every request, seemed not to hear her and let the eunuch take her away.

"Aunt, save Weiwei?"

Feng Caiwei looked at Concubine Jiang for help.

Concubine Jiang was also anxious, because Weiwei was her secret treasure that made her favored. If Weiwei was sent away, the emperor would not visit her in the near future.

"Your Majesty, Weiwei is your most beloved girl. Can you bear to let Weiwei suffer? Please forgive Weiwei this time?"

"Shut up." Emperor Zhaoning looked at Concubine Jiang unhappily. "It's all your fault for not educating Weiwei well. She's only five years old, but she's already full of lies. What will happen to her when she grows up?"

"From today on, you will be confined to the palace and have to reflect on your actions. When you have reflected well, you can come out again. Go away."

Concubine Jiang and Feng Caiwei were both taken away, and everything finally calmed down.

Emperor Zhaoning exhaled a breath and looked at Jiujiu. His eyes were so deep and dark that it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

Jiujiu's heart trembled.

[Why is the Tyrant looking at me so strangely? ]

[Isn’t the truth clear? I didn’t steal anything, and I didn’t arrest anyone.]

[Will he still want to kill me? In the book, I was beaten to death today. I don't want to be beaten to death. It would be too painful. Jiujiu is afraid of pain.]

Emperor Zhaoning was actually looking at Jiujiu's appearance. Just now, this brat said that Weiwei was jealous of his good looks and wanted to scratch his face.

He wanted to take a closer look to see how good-looking he was.

He is indeed very good, with a delicate and cute figure, and is more handsome than the seventeen princes born before him. Especially his eyes, which are so bright and watery, as if they can speak.

I don’t know where he went, his head and body were all covered in dust and dirt.

What a brat.

If she were a little girl, she would definitely be fair and cute.

Emperor Zhaoning sighed with regret.

But he still considered that the boy was very good-looking and was in a good mood, so he asked Fu'an to take him back without making things difficult for him.

Jiujiu thought that the tyrant did not beat her to death and sent someone to send her back, thinking that he was sensible, and she began to mutter to herself.

[If my cheap father had been so wise and brave earlier, and had not been blinded by the evildoers, and had investigated my mother's treason, my mother would not have been imprisoned in the cold palace. ]

[My mother never colluded with the enemy or committed treason.]

[Ever since I was born, she has been telling me that she and her mother's family were wronged, and she doesn't know who hurt her.]

[My mother is so pitiful, but my cheap father doesn’t know that the imperial family is the most ruthless! ]

[But my cheap dad isn't much better. When he walks onto the bridge in the middle of the lake, the bridge will collapse and he will break his leg.]

I remember that the book focused on describing this period, because it was from here that Western Chu began to decline when my stepfather could no longer stand up.

After my cheap father broke his leg, surrounding countries all sent envoys to visit him. They called it a visit, but in fact, they were all there to laugh at the king's joke.

My cheap dad was so angry that he vomited a lot of blood!

I feel depressed every day.

My health deteriorated as a result.

Eventually, he became so poor that he couldn't even get out of bed and couldn't handle trivial matters at court. The eunuchs joined forces with treacherous officials to cause chaos in the government, and the Western Chu State was destroyed.

Jiujiu wanted to give a reminder, but she was only two and a half years old and no one would believe her words. If she tried to stop her stepfather, she would probably be regarded as a lunatic, and her mother might even be implicated.

Forget it, I won’t say anymore.

Anyway, her stepfather has never cared about her and her mother, so why should she care about him?

Love you so much.

Jiujiu shook her head and followed Eunuch Fuan back to the cold palace.

But after walking a few steps, Jiujiu felt uneasy. Seeing that she was about to reach the cold palace, Jiujiu said, "Eunuch, you don't have to see me off. Let's go back?"

"Remember to remind me..." The word "Yi" was on the tip of her tongue, but Jiujiu stopped herself in time.

My mother once said that trouble comes from the mouth.

She must not talk nonsense.

He quickly changed his words: "Remember to remind Father to go to the lake by the Imperial Garden and wait for a cup of tea before crossing the bridge in the middle of the lake."
