"If you can still go out, then there's no problem. If you can't go out, then there's going to be a change in the palace." Wang Zirou suppressed the last few words in her voice to the point where she could barely hear them.
"What's next?" The man's voice that suddenly appeared startled Wang Zirou. After reacting for a moment, she immediately turned her head to the side of the bed, and sure enough, she saw a mighty man sitting by the bed.
Her bright yellow clothes made her stand up immediately. She took two steps forward and obediently kowtowed three times. "Greetings, your majesty. May your majesty live in peace. Long live the Emperor for tens of thousands of years!"
The emperor sized up the little girl. Although she was a bit nervous and clenched her fists tightly, she didn't speak incoherently. Many adults would find it difficult to speak after seeing her for the first time.
Wang Zirou then kowtowed and said, "It's just that this matter is urgent, maidservant must have the guts to do so." Wang Zirou's words made the emperor laugh, it seemed like she had guts.
"Get up and reply." The Emperor raised his hand and only then did Wang Zirou stand up, taking a step back to stand at the side.
"Look at how you scared the little girl! Come here, catalpa, sit here and report back." The empress dowager pointed to the chair Wang Zirou had just sat on.
However, Wang Zirou shook her head. "The empress dowager is a junior of the maidservant, and the maidservant has already crossed the threshold. But what I did right now is just official business with the emperor.
The empress dowager nodded her head. She hadn't thought that this seemingly unremarkable little girl would actually know when to advance and when to retreat. She really couldn't judge a book by its cover. As expected, she was Qingluo's friend.
"Go on. What happened next?" The Emperor, on the other hand, did not continue being courteous with Wang Zirou. He raised his chin, and signaled her to continue.
"Everyone knows that this could be a matter of death, but no one backed down and fought over it. In the end, they could only draw lots and send the two lords out."
Using a lot to decide such a huge matter was simply too much of a farce. But now that Wang Zirou had mentioned it, the three of them felt a chill in their hearts.
"Who are the two lords that were chosen?" When the Emperor asked this, Wang Zirou immediately bowed and replied, "Reporting to the Emperor, it's the Great Desolate Temple's Chiang and the Great Desolator, Lord Liu."
"Did the two of them enter the palace?" The emperor asked again, "The two sirs arrived at the palace without hesitation, but they were stopped by someone else and didn't enter the palace."
When the emperor heard these words, he let out a long breath. It was fortunate that the two sirs were protected. If he were to enter the palace now, the consequences wouldn't even need to be guessed.
"Then why did you come in?" The Emperor pointed at Wang Zirou, and Wang Zirou hurriedly replied, "After the two sirs return, they will discuss this with the other elders, and we won't be able to come up with a proper method for now."
"I don't know the specific situation in the palace, so I can't decide on things rashly. At this moment, the family gathering is already a taboo to end the party, but it's impossible for everyone to treat it as nothing happening."
"If there really is a mistake, then it will be a huge matter. Moreover, they are all pillars of the court. How can they just stand there and not stand up straight?"
"How could there be a perfect egg when the matter is unknown and I don't dare to act rashly? These words were overheard by me who was hiding outside the window, so I volunteered to investigate."
The emperor shook his head. It could be seen how much this family doted on her, that they actually went to listen to her father. But as a girl, her courage was beyond belief.
"Others can't even enter the palace, how did you come in?" The Emperor was very curious as to how this little girl had managed to sneak in. This wasn't something that could be accomplished by boldness.
"My lords have come to the palace. Your majesty, you are allowed to ignore the court and the government, as well as the foreign officials, and reject them. However, I am only here to bring Mother back to the palace."
"Sobbing about how a serious problem had occurred at home, and that I had to see Mother. Besides, I took Father's identity card, so they had no choice but to let me in. Otherwise, it would be too strange outside."
"It's impossible not to let people see what happened in the Minister's house, so I'm standing here now." Wang Zirou said with a face full of pride once again.
The Emperor asked softly, "Your father was willing to let you in? It is possible that you will never be able to get out of here again. Even if you didn't think of it, your father would definitely have thought of it. "
Wang Zirou's expression darkened, but instantly became bright again. "Father said that the country's major event would naturally overtake the family's matter. If our country is in trouble, my family will not lose a single point if we are able to provide two portions of assistance."
"It doesn't matter if we bow to a single life. If we can save the emperor, the empress dowager, and all the citizens of the world, our family would be able to give up its life. Besides, we're not the only ones who would sacrifice it."
"Those adults are also always preparing. If I don't go out after entering, they will definitely take action outside. So, my sacrifice is worth it, that's enough. Even if I just call the police for them, perhaps the result will be different."
Seeing the fearless look on the little girl's face, the Emperor suddenly felt that this little girl was really pretty, as if she had a kind of vigorous life force in her body. Maybe this was the future of Taishang, the Taishang would definitely be full of life and vigor in his hands.
When the empress dowager saw that the emperor had suddenly looked at Wang Zirou with her pretty good eyes, her heart couldn't help but throb. "Girl, come and sit for a while.
Wang Zirou looked at the emperor and saw that he had nodded her head. She then blessed the emperor and sat down next to the empress dowager.
"Don't be so stiff, it's tiring." The empress dowager gently urged, "Un, un!" Although she agreed, she sat up straight and did not change her posture at all.
"I want a glass of water!" Just as Wang Zirou was about to get up, there were two knocks on the door. Wang Zirou immediately looked at the emperor nervously, and the emperor shook his head, signalling her not to panic, then pulled the bed tent along.
"Empress Dowager, it's me, Yan'er." Before Zou Rou could ask who it was, she heard someone speaking from outside the door.
"Really?" Wang Zirou mouthed the question to the empress dowager, who nodded her head. Only then did Wang Zirou stand up and open the door to the inner room.
"Aunt Yan, please come in." With a flash, Ye Kong entered the room with Aunt Yan in his arms.
"Empress Dowager, Miss Wang." Aunt Yan's voice was loud enough for people outside to hear, so she casually closed the door.
"Empress Dowager, the soldiers outside have already come in twice to take a look. It looks like they want to see if there's anything wrong with Miss Wang. If there's nothing wrong, I think it's better to let Miss Wang go to the main hall and have her stay with Lady Wang."
When Wang Zirou heard this, she stood up in a flash. "Then I'll be going out. Wang Zirou was straightforward as she bowed to the empress dowager, stood up and walked out.
"Girl, if someone asks you to go out, you must not go out. If something happens, just call me. I'm here." The empress dowager reminded Wang Zirou.
"It's fine, empress dowager. You don't have to worry about me. I've already made preparations. If someone calls me, I naturally have to go out. Otherwise, wouldn't the matter be exposed?" We still have to give them a surprise hit. " Wang Zirou turned back, with a solemn look on her face.
"You little girl, now is not the time to be brave. Since you entered the Tzu Ning Palace, then you will naturally know their intentions, why do you still have to court death, and not be so brave, this is recklessness, do you know?"
The empress dowager ruthlessly scolded Wang Zirou. Wang Zirou curled her lips and didn't dare to refute her.
"Go out and stay with your mother. Don't do anything else." Her Majesty felt that she had spoken too heavily, and she hastened to exclaim softly.
Wang Zirou was immediately overjoyed. "I understand, empress dowager, thank you!" Then she hopped out, and the Empress looked after her and shook her head.
"She said she's Qingluo's friend, and she's even older than Qingluo by a few months, but why does she look like a little friend? She doesn't look like a big girl at all."
Aunt Yan closed the door again and walked a few steps forward, responding to the empress dowager's words, "She's still young. Moreover, how can ordinary people compare to Princess Yi?
Aunt Yan walked straight to the innermost area and opened a box, taking out the dishes inside. These were all things the emperor reminded his wives to prepare before they entered, saying that they were reserved.
The emperor really did say it out loud. There was no food to be had outside anymore, so with these, the empress dowager and the emperor could at least keep them from starving.
"This little girl is pretty good. She's alive and kicking. She's not inflexible; she's alive." The emperor's voice came out from the tent, causing Aunt Yan, who was taking something, to pause for a moment.
"Besides, when you should be brave, you should be careful. When you should be naive, you should be brave. It is rare to see true feelings like this. The ladies of the house are always the same now."
"Even though she's called a lady from a noble family, everyone knows the same things. They follow the same rules and act the same way. Saying the same words is truly annoying."
Although the emperor's words contained a bit of a complaint, when he thought about it carefully, there was nothing wrong with it. It was not as if noble families raised their young miss in such a way.
"Don't say it, Yue Er's words make sense to me. The reason why I like Qingluo is that she is outside the rules and always gives me some sense of intimacy. Furthermore, she can also give me some surprises from time to time."
