Xiao Rui just casually picked up a piece of cake and put it into his mouth, but he heard a crisp crunch!

Then, Xiao Rui's shrill cry was heard from the Yangxin Palace: "Ah! My teeth!!"

Before Xiao Fuzi had walked far, he heard the emperor's voice and ran into the palace in fear, "What's wrong, emperor! What's wrong, emperor!"

But who would have thought that as soon as he entered the room, he saw Xiao Rui covering his mouth with his hands, and a tooth had fallen out on the ground...

“Your Majesty…Your Majesty…” Xiao Fuzi picked up the tooth from the ground and handed it to Xiao Rui with trembling hands.

Xiao Rui gave him a cold look and said, "Get lost."

Xiao Fuzi was in a dilemma at this moment, and it was not right for her to leave or not leave. While she was hesitating, she heard Xiao Rui say, "Bring Concubine Xu in!"

"Oh! Yes, I understand!" Xiao Fuzi said with his head down and nodding, and hurriedly walked out of the door of the Palace of Tranquil Longevity to call Xu Yinshang.

At the entrance of the Yangxin Palace, Xu Yinshang and his servant, who were at a loss as to what to say, were still standing in front of the door in a daze. At this time, Xiao Fuzi came over in a hurry.

Xiao Fuzi panted and said, "Mrs. Xu! Hurry up, the Emperor is looking for you!"

Xu Yinshang pointed at herself and asked, "Looking for me?"

Xiao Fuzi panted and said, "Ah, yes, I am looking for you, my noble lord!"

After hearing this, Xu Yinchang couldn't help showing joy on her face, and she exchanged a glance with her maid Zi Zi. Zi Zi was also happy for her young mistress, and made a cheering gesture towards Xu Yinchang!

"Got it. I'll be there right away." Xu Yinshang was secretly delighted, feeling that his efforts were not in vain and that the emperor finally appreciated him.

Xu Yinshang walked into the palace with an uncontrollable smile on her face. She had just said in front of Eunuch Fu that she only wanted the emperor to taste her cakes and did not ask the emperor to see her. She was just trying to win the emperor's favor.

Fortunately, I delivered the cakes and did not leave. I just waited at the door of the palace, waiting for the emperor to eat the cakes and then soften his heart and let me in.

"Your Majesty, I'm here. I wonder why Your Majesty summoned me in~" Xu Yinshang said in a coquettish voice.

But she was met with Xiao Rui's cold face. Although she didn't know what happened, Xu Yinshang couldn't help but shiver.

Xiao Rui said with a gloomy face, "Try the cakes you made yourself!"

As he said this, he picked up a piece of cake from the plate and threw it on the ground. He looked as if he was feeding a dog.

When the pastry fell to the ground, it rolled several times, making "dong, dong, dong" sounds, and each sound was extremely heavy.

Xu Yinshang looked at the cake that had fallen to the ground in confusion, not understanding why it made such a loud noise, but because the emperor was still watching, she had to pick it up and eat it...

Xu Yinshang picked up the cake, put it in his mouth, and then found that he couldn't bite it at all! "Your Majesty... I can't bite this..."

Xiao Rui slammed the table and said, "How dare you ask me!"

Then he said to Xiao Fuzi, "Xiao Fuzi, go and ask the imperial physician to see if my tooth can be saved!"

Xiao Fuzi said, "Your Majesty, I have sent someone to invite him. I believe he will be here soon."

Xu Yinshang knelt on the ground, holding the cake, listening to the conversation between the two. What did the emperor mean? Could it be that after eating the cake he made, his teeth broke! ! Wouldn't he be doomed?

"Your Majesty..." Xu Yinshang said guiltily.

"Eat! If you don't finish eating today, don't go back to Yuexian Palace. And eat all these on the plate." Xiao Rui said, and threw all the pastries on the plate to the ground.

Xu Yinshang looked at the plate of cakes and was immediately in a dilemma. She hadn't even taken a single bite of the cake in her hand...

Helplessly, she tried to open her mouth and take a big bite, but she found that she couldn't bite it at all. She bit so hard that her teeth hurt!

Xu Yinshang mustered up her courage and said, "Your Majesty... the cake is too hard, I... I really can't bite it..."

Xiao Rui asked back, "If you can't bite it, then I can?"

After hearing this, Xu Yinshang had no choice but to continue holding the pastry and taking bites to taste it. At this time, the imperial physician also came in.

"Your Majesty, your humble servant pays respects to you!" Imperial Physician Lu leaned forward and said.

Xiao Rui asked, "Get up and come over to see if there is any way to fix my tooth?"

Doctor Lu walked forward to take a look, and after examining it for a while, he said, "This... Your Majesty, yes, it can be filled with other materials, but you can't eat anything too hard here in the future..."

Xiao Rui suppressed his anger and took a deep breath, "Okay, have you brought the materials? Give them to me!"

Seeing that there was still a way to repair the emperor's teeth, Xu Yinshang finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, as soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he was noticed by the emperor.

Xiao Rui found Xu Yinshang still kneeling on the ground, holding a cake in her hand and looking at him. She said in annoyance, "Mrs. Xu, take the "stone" you made and get out to eat it immediately!"

"Yes... yes! I'll take my leave!" Xu Yinshang picked up the pastries on the ground in a panic and left in a hurry.

After Xu Yinshang left the Yangxin Palace, the palace maid Wan was still waiting for her. When she saw her mistress coming out, she hurriedly asked, "How is it, mistress? Why does the imperial physician seem to be here?"

Without saying anything, Xu Yinshang stuffed half of the plate of cakes in her arms to Zi Wan, "Quick, help me share half!"

Zi Wan didn't understand why and took a bite of the cake. Then he wailed in pain, "My lady...a piece of my tooth seems to have fallen off..."

Zi Wan spat out the pastry and a small piece of broken tooth in his mouth and placed them in his hand.

"My dear... look... it hurts!"

"What! Your teeth also..." Xu Yinshang's eyes widened instantly.

"Why did you say that, young lady?" Zi Wan then reacted and said, "Could it be that the emperor also..."

Xu Yinshang nodded. "It's just what you think."

Zi Huan was shocked when he heard this. They had really gotten into trouble this time. They had even broken the emperor's teeth!

Zi Wan murmured, "No wonder I just saw the imperial physician rushing in. I thought something had happened inside! The result was worse than I thought..."

Xu Yinshang reminded Zihuan, "Stop talking and eat quickly. The emperor said that we can't leave until we finish eating!"

Zi Wan said with a stiff face, "Ah, my teeth are broken... I can't eat this..."

Inside the palace

After a lot of trouble, Xiao Rui's teeth were finally repaired.

Imperial Physician Lu warned, "Your Majesty must not eat anything hard recently. It's best to drink some porridge or something like that..."

After hearing this, Xiao Rui couldn't help feeling bitter. The Lantern Festival was about to come, and while others were enjoying big meals of meat and fish, he was only drinking thin porridge. How miserable it was!

"I understand. Please leave." Xiao Rui said

"Yes, I'll take my leave." Doctor Lu said and walked out with the medicine box on his back.

Xiao Rui suddenly thought that if the empress dowager knew about this, she would probably no longer try to match him up with Concubine Xu!
