Reborn Empress vs. Devil Crown Prince - C7
“Resolve it? Hehe, a misunderstanding? Little Thirteen, you still don’t know too much about the matters of the palace. Happy, happy, happy, happy … ”
“Tai Zige, how did you…?”
Xuan Yushuo said somewhat hesitantly. He looked up at the Crown Prince who didn’t seem to care about anything at all. He wanted to speak up to persuade him, but the Crown Prince had already left like a butterfly with his clothes fluttering in the wind.
Ningshuang had been attending to Pu Yangdi’s side all this time. It was only until late at night did she leisurely stand up when she saw the ashen complexion of the person with the decaying face finally fall back into slumber.
“Esteemed empress, it’s late at night. Where are you planning to go?” The smile that Duo Hai was wearing right now was enough to squeeze all of his eyes away from his face.
Ningshuang gestured with his hand to indicate for it to be forbidden, and then, she slowly exited the great hall. She turned around and gently closed the door.
“Eunuch Duo Hai, the emperor has already woken up, but now he still needs to rest, you need to take care of him more!”
“Oh, Empress, don’t worry. Duo Hai will definitely serve the Emperor well!”
Ningshuang slightly nodded, but Duo Hai immediately smiled and said: “Empress, this servant went to pick some palace maids for the esteemed wangfei at noon, I don’t know if it suits the esteemed wangfei’s intentions …”
Hearing that, Ningshuang, who had originally planned to turn around and leave, suddenly stopped. She turned around to look at Duo Hai, and then revealed a profound smile. I will really have to trouble you. Since you’ve already come looking for me, let me take a look! ”
Duo Hai nodded, and led Ningshuang to a side hall. She reached out and clapped her hands, and a dozen or so palace maids and five or six servants walked in one after another.
Ningshuang looked around and suddenly realized that there were two girls standing in the middle of the crowd. Unconsciously, she felt excited.
He pointed at one of the beautiful women and said while sneering: “If you come out, I’ll ask you. What’s your name?”
The woman seemed to be overwhelmed by the favor as she lowered her head and wriggled her fingers as she slowly walked out. “This servant, Lan Xuan, greets the Empress!”
“Mm, not bad, not bad, your looks are not bad, and people are also obedient. I ask you, are you willing to leave you by my side?”
Surprise and joy filled Lan Xuan’s face as he said in a fluster, “This servant is willing, this servant is willing to serve the Empress!”
There were no more than a few expressions on Ningshuang’s face. She only raised her eyebrows, and said to Duo Hai: “Lan Xuan, I’ll stay behind; then … That guy over there, what’s your name? ”
The moment the timid girl hiding in the corner heard Ningshuang’s question, her shoulder subconsciously twitched and she said in a trembling voice, “This servant, this servant, Lan Xin …”
“Cymbidium, good name, you … “Come to my side!”
Hearing that, Duo Hai was also startled, he raised his head and looked uncertainly at Ningshuang, only to see that her face had a gentle expression.
Looking at her shoulders that were shaking uneasily, Ningshuang did not get angry at all. She only chuckled and said: “Get up! From now on, you will follow closely by my side and serve me. This big palace maid from Weiyang Palace, you have to shoulder this responsibility! ”
“What?” Lan Xin was stunned, even the pleasantly surprised Lan Xuan was stunned on the spot. Didn’t the Empress like her just now? How did she get that little bitch to become a palace maid in the blink of an eye?
Seeing that Lan Xin was still in shock, Ningshuang just looked at her with a tolerant smile; on the other hand, Duo Hai bellowed with a rough voice that was somewhat impatient: “What are you waiting for? Hurry up and kowtow to thank the Emperor? ”
“Ah?” “Servant, servant …” This servant thanks the empress for her appreciation! ”
“Alright, get up! Duo Hai, I will choose two of these to be my personal bodyguards, the rest is up to you! “Remember, I hate people who talk too much …”
This single sentence intimidated everyone present, causing those who were originally a bit complacent to instantly fall silent.
Duo Hai immediately bowed, and said with a fawning expression: “Empress, this servant understands. “Serving the esteemed empress is like serving the emperor. If I can find out who dares to neglect the empress, then I’ll wait for the emperor to eat the board!”
Everyone bent over and bowed, and then Ningshuang unintentionally yawned and said softly: “Duo Hai, I am truly tired today, why not …. I will bring them back to the Weiyang Palace first, and tomorrow morning, I will come and serve the Emperor! ”
“Yes, yes. This servant respectfully sends the empress off!” Duo Hai acted like a good grandson as he escorted Ningshuang out of the Chunyu Palace.
Just as he returned to Weiyang Palace, Ningshuang said softly: “Go make the bed!”
Lan Xin walked to the bedside while trembling, and carefully made a bed for Ningshuang. Lan Xuan, who had been standing behind Ningshuang, felt a little angry in her heart, and pretended to whisper: “Lan Xin, let me help you!”
Ningshuang tidied up her pitch black hair, but could vaguely see the movements of the two people behind him in the mirror.
When the usually timid Lan Xin heard Lan Xuan’s words, she slightly moved her body away from the space, but Lan Xuan did not step forward quickly. Instead, she poured herself a cup of hot tea and quietly replied, “Empress, this servant will pour you a cup of tea.”
When she saw Lan Xuan move to Lan Xin’s side while holding the teacup, she suddenly threw the hot tea in her hand out. Following that, Lan Xin let out a scream, but she actually kneeled down instead:
“Your Highness, please spare my life, this servant …” This servant didn’t do it on purpose! Great Asgard Mistress Lan Xin, you, why did you hit me? ”
“S-servant ….” This servant doesn’t dare, this servant didn’t do it on purpose! ” With a plop, Lan Xin kneeled on the ground and kowtowed non-stop.
He put down the comb in his hand, and slowly turned around. Looking at the two palace maids who were kneeling on the ground, his eyes did not even move as he directly said, “Lan Xin, slap Lan Xuan!”
“Yes, servant …” However, the words he said afterwards made him stunned for a long while, unable to react.
What? Not slapping himself? but to slap Lan Xuan in the face? This … why?
Seeing Lan Xin’s hesitant expression, Ningshuang’s expression gradually darkened. She said in a low voice: “Lan Xin, as my big palace maid, could it be that you’re not even going to listen to my words?”
“This servant doesn’t dare, this servant doesn’t dare!” After a few more kowtows, Ningshuang could no longer bear to watch any longer, and coldly said: “Go slap his face!”
“Hey …” At this moment, Lan Xin was trembling as she raised her head. Seeing the ferocious yet fearful face of Lan Xuan, in the end, she gritted her teeth and closed her eyes to give her a slap.
“Lan Xin… Did you not eat at night? If the slap is meant to end like this, then learn from me! ” After saying this, a crisp, cold sound like that of a falling jade rang in his ears.
Lan Xin looked at Lan Xuan who had been sent flying with a slap, his entire body trembling uncontrollably.
Lan Xuan was obviously frightened to death as he covered his face and trembled as he looked at the girl in front of his. His cold and mocking voice rang beside his ears: “Lan Xuan, do you know why I slapped you?”
“Your servant, your servant …” Wrong! ”
“What’s wrong?” Ningshuang slowly took out her kernels s and wiped off the bamboo shoot like white jade fingers one by one. It was as if she was extremely disgusted with the hit she gave Lan Xuan.
“Your servant …” “Your servant …” He trembled, not daring to continue his sentence. Did he need her to say it out loud, that she was deliberately using the cup to knock against Lan Xin?
Ningshuang looked at her large watery eyes, then turned and looked at Lan Xin, then slowly sat down again. Throwing the kernels on the table, she said softly: “I told you before, I like obedient people, what did you do? Do you need me to explain? ”
After Lan Xuan heard this, he fell to the ground and kowtowed non-stop. “Empress, this servant was wrong. This servant will never dare to do it again!”
“In the future?” Do you still want to have a future? ”
“No, no, no, this servant doesn’t dare anymore, this servant doesn’t dare!” With every word he spoke, he felt the teeth in his back loosen. Lan Xuan was slightly scared to death at this moment.
Only then did Ningshuang turn around and look at Lan Xin who was kneeling at the side. She said softly: “Lan Xin, get up.
“… “Here!” Lan Xin pulled at the corner of her skirt and her body continuously shook as she stood up. Even when she was pouring tea for Ningshuang, the flowing water was still trembling.
Reaching out to receive the teacup, Ningshuang raised her eyebrows and said: “Lan Xin, hit my shoulder with the fist!”
“Here!” Lan Xin’s heart trembled uneasily at that moment. If she wasn’t satisfied with her service, then wouldn’t it mean that she would have to frequent it often in the future …
“Lan Xin! Remember, in this palace, other than me, you’re the biggest. Some of the servants have bad rules, so when I don’t see you, you have to help supervise.
“… “Here, esteemed empress!” Lan Xin’s hand trembled as she struck Ningshuang on the shoulder, but she didn’t know whether or not her actions would make the Empress angry.
“And you … Lan Xuan, do you admit your wrongs? “Although I am of humble birth, I am now the leader of the six palaces. Naturally, those of us in the palace have to understand the rules. Otherwise, if someone from the other palaces were to randomly chew on my tongue, would you want to humiliate me?”
“Empress, your servant … “I know I was wrong.”
“Mn, tonight, I have not ordered you to move, and Lan Xin did not ask you to serve tea, yet you dare to publicly offer me tea? “Just who gave you the guts to do this?”
