Xiaosi was so frightened that he trembled all over and pushed the door open, his feet squelching and his head hanging down.
"Xiaosi, you brat, you look so ugly! Are you sick? Or do you still not want to come over and serve me?"
Mo Chuan had a straight face, not a trace of smile on his face, but Xiaosi knew from his tone that the emperor was in a good mood.
Huh
Isn't the emperor angry with himself? Or does the Emperor not know what he said in the Queen Mother's Palace
Xiao Si opened his eyes in surprise.
Although there was no expression on Mo Chuan's face, there was a faint smile in his eyes. Xiao Si's nervousness immediately relaxed and he couldn't help but let out a long breath.
"Your Majesty, you scared me to death." He patted his chest.
Mo Chuan glanced at him with a half-smile: "The people I sent were on time, right? The queen didn't embarrass you, right?"
"No, no." Xiao Si replied, with confusion on his face.
Mo Chuan smiled slightly and said: "As soon as I heard from the guards that you were taken away by the queen's people, I immediately sent them to convey my will. Fortunately, they went in time and didn't let your kid's butt taste the queen's palace. Stir-fried bamboo shoots and meat.”
Xiao Si stared at Mo Chuan blankly, and suddenly realized that those guards were not disloyal at all, but came back to report the news. When the emperor heard that he was in danger, he immediately sent people to rescue him.
He was extremely moved, ashamed and regretful. His lips were trembling, but he could not speak.
"Your Majesty... this slave is really, really..." There was a big lump in his throat, which made him extremely uncomfortable, and tears rolled down in his eyes.
He wanted to cry loudly, but also wanted to kneel down and kowtow, tell the truth and beg the emperor to forgive him.
But he didn't dare.
How could Mo Chuan know Xiaosi's complicated thoughts? When he raised his eyes, he suddenly found the finger marks on Xiaosi's face, and his expression sank.
"Who hit you?"
Xiao Si quickly shook his head and said, "No, no."
"Nonsense! Do you think I am blind? Can't even see the fingerprints on your face? Say it quickly!" Mo Chuan said sternly.
Xiao Si fell to his knees with a plop and kowtowed to Mo Chuan.
"Your Majesty, it's all the servant's fault. It's all the fault of the servant. Please stop asking any more questions."
Mo Chuan stamped his foot and glared at him with hatred, saying: "You are the person next to me. Anyone who dares to hit you in the face is equivalent to hitting me in the face. Could it be that someone hit me in the face? You But you told me not to ask further questions? "
Xiao Si just kowtows.
"It's Eunuch Kang from the Queen Mother's side, isn't it?" Mo Chuan guessed right.
Except for Eunuch Kang, no one in the Queen Mother Zhou's palace had the guts to hit Xiao Si in the face.
Only Eunuch Kang, relying on the fact that he was an elder close to Queen Mother Zhou, was bolder than anyone else and even dared to slap Xiao Si in the face.
Anger welled up in Mo Chuan's heart.
"Your Majesty, the slave said something wrong and made the Queen Mother angry. The Queen Mother asked Eunuch Kang to slap the slave gently. Eunuch Kang taught the slave how to speak so that he would not make the Emperor angry in the future. The Queen Mother and Eunuch Kang has good intentions." Xiaosi kowtowed.
Mo Chuan couldn't help but said "Huh" and stared at him: "Xiaosi, someone slapped you in the face, but you instead put in a good word and begged for mercy? Did you have something that fell into the hands of Kang? Come on?"
His last word was stern.
Xiaosi's heart was shaken when he heard this, and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
My dear, the emperor is too smart. He just said a word and the emperor guessed it!
