Chereads / Don't Run Away, Princess Foodie / Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Confinement and Conspiracy

Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: Confinement and Conspiracy

"What did you say? How could the emperor confine me? Did you, a dog slave, misunderstand the decree?"

Teng Haoze kicked the slave who was kneeling on the ground.

The little eunuch who was kicked did not dare to move a step and could only kneel on the ground to reply.

"How dare the slave lie? I heard from the eunuch accompanying me that this decree was issued by your majesty when he was in Chenghuan Palace."

"And I also heard..."

The little eunuch timidly glanced at the angry Teng Haoze.

"Even the Concubine Shun Zhaoyi was implicated..."

Teng Haoze looked at the trembling eunuch kneeling on the ground in disbelief and roared.

"I made the mistake. What does it have to do with my mother? I'm afraid that the emperor was blinded by that woman."

The little eunuch hurriedly stopped Teng Haoze from speaking.

"Your Majesty, be careful with your words."

Teng Haoze, who was angry, had nowhere to vent his anger, and he took it out on the innocent little eunuch.

After venting his anger, Teng Haoze left.

The young eunuch kneeling on the ground looked at Teng Haoze's back as he left. He hid his cruelty and stood up to limp away.

Until he left the Jingwang Mansion and went straight to an empty alley.

"You're here?"

At the end of the alley stood a gorgeously dressed woman.

Chun Ling felt the footsteps behind her getting closer and closer, and she concluded that this person was him.

"I miss you so much, Ling'er."

Xiao Anzi hugged her from behind in a hurry.

"Hey, don't worry, don't worry."

After Chun Ling broke free from Xiao Anzi's arms, she turned around and looked at Xiao Anzi.

She was scared when she saw it.

"What's wrong with your face? Why were you beaten like this? Who beat you?"

Chun Ling hurriedly took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the red and swollen wound on Xiao Anzi's cheek.

"Who else could it be? It was just that cowardly Teng Haoze who beat him. He didn't dare to vent his anger on others, so he could only take it out on me. Ouch, my knee hurts so badly."

As he spoke, he lifted up his trouser legs to reveal his knees that were bruised and purple.

"Don't move. I brought some ointment with me. I'll apply it to you, and it won't hurt so much after applying it."

Xiao Anzi looked at Chunling, who was squatting on the ground and applying ointment to him, and said with emotion.

"Ling'er, you are the only one in the world who truly loves me."

Chunling gently applied ointment to Xiao Anzi, and did not stop her hands after hearing this.

"In this world, besides my sister, you are the best to me."

After hearing this, Xiao Anzi hurriedly hugged Chunling and said.

"Don't worry, my dear, you are the only one I love most in this life. Believe me, I will make you happy."

Chunling looked at Xiao Anzi who loved her wholeheartedly, and her heart was touched a little.

"Of course I believe you. By the way, how is the task that my sister gave you?"

When he said this, Xiao Anzi's face showed a bit of pride.

"Don't worry, I have completed the task. That fool King Jing, after being provoked by me, said everything. Even when he beat me, he didn't avoid others. I guess that now everything he said and did has been transmitted to your majesty's ears without missing a word."

After listening, Chun Ling smiled and said.

"That's good, I believe you can do it."

Xiao Anzi's hand began to touch down restlessly.

"Hey, don't worry, wait a while. I have to pass a message to my sister first. Be good and listen."

Chun Ling said and gently pushed Xiao Anzi with her hand.

Xiao Anzi took Chun Ling's hand and put it in front of his nose to smell it.

"Okay, everything you say."

In Princess Yongning's mansion, a woman dressed very gorgeously was leaning on the chaise longue with her eyes closed.

The man next to her was sitting next to her and gently massaging her legs.

"Your Highness, Princess, Your Highness."

After Chunxue walked into the palace, she bowed to the two of them.

"Did your sister send a message?"

It was Teng Lin who spoke, and she slowly opened her eyes.

She was not very pretty, but her fox eyes were unique.

"Yes, my servant sister said that Xiao Anzi had completed the task given by Your Highness."

"That's good, tell your sister that Xiao Anzi must be won over. It will be of great help to us in the future."

"Yes. By the way, Your Highness, Qi Cairen sent you a lot of baby clothes for your unborn child. It is said that they were all embroidered by Qi Cairen herself."

"Bring them here."

Teng Lin touched her belly, which was already big and about to give birth.

Li Yuanyi beside her rubbed her waist and said intimately.

"Mother's needlework is one of the best. It's really hard for mother. Tomorrow I will personally go to the palace to pay my respects to mother, so that mother can know your recent situation."

Teng Lin picked up a baby's clothes and stroked it carefully.

"Okay, I feel sad for mother when I talk about her.

Mother has been in the palace for many years. My mother has been serving my father when he was still a prince.

After my father ascended the throne, he was only given a mere talent, and even the bitch who just entered the palace is now a Zhaoyi. My father loves her so much before she gives birth. If she gives birth to a prince..."

Li Yuanyi hurriedly patted the back of the mad Teng Lin to comfort her.

"Lin'er, don't worry, as long as she is..."

Li Yuanyi didn't finish the rest of the words, but Teng Lin already understood.

She knew that now she just needed to wait for the opportunity...
