Fast forward to two and a half years old: The villain boss is obsessed with raising cubs

The teacup shattered, porcelain pieces flying everywhere.

As the target in Dongfang Jing Palace, the envoy was hit on the head by the teacup. The flying porcelain pieces cut his skin, leaving streaks of blood. Tea flowed down the envoy's head, and he looked very embarrassed.

Everyone was stunned.

“Mother?!” The emperor’s voice was a little out of tune. He grabbed Dongfang Jing’s hand, who was about to continue smashing, and said in a low voice with gritted teeth: “Mother, this is the envoy of Nanzhao.”

When two countries are at war, they don't kill envoys. What's more, Nanzhao has already surrendered. How could my mother hit the envoy of Nanzhao in front of so many people?

"Let go!" Dongfang Jing coldly shook off the emperor's hand.

The emperor staggered back to his seat, looking extremely embarrassed.

The emperor was humiliated by the empress dowager in front of so many people. He was a proud and arrogant man, so it was inevitable that he felt resentful.

Didn't you promise me that you would return all power to me? Why are you humiliating me in front of so many court officials and ladies? Are you really willing to give up your power, mother?

Dongfang Jing saw the resentment in the emperor's eyes, but he didn't care. The strong never cared about the thoughts of the weak.

Did he really think that he had worked so hard for so many years, controlling the court officials and turning the entire Daqing court into his own one-man show, just to wait for him to grow up and rule the country himself?

What she wants to do is to be the most noble and supreme person in the world.

The messenger covered his face in pain, his expression distorted.

"Empress Dowager, do you want Daqing and Nanzhao to have another dispute?"

He questioned Dongfang Jing angrily.

Dongfang Jing walked down the platform step by step with a sullen face and stood in front of the envoy. He said nothing, but he had an innate majesty that made people tremble.

Faced with such pressure, the envoy's attitude gradually weakened from the initial questioning, but in the end he could not stand the pressure and began to change his words:

"Empress Dowager, Nanzhao is absolutely loyal to Daqing. She is just a princess. If the Empress Dowager is unwilling, Nanzhao will have no objection at all."

Dongfang Jing narrowed his eyes, dissatisfied with the messenger's contempt for Miaomiao.

Although Nanman was full of miasma, it had a warm and pleasant climate, which was suitable for developing agriculture. Dongfang Jing had long been eyeing this place. So even if the waiter changed his mind, Dongfang Jing did not change his mind, but turned to look at the ministers who participated in the palace banquet.

"It's just a barbarian land, so what's the harm in fighting? When the King of Zhennan was here, Daqing didn't lose. When the King of Zhennan is gone, Daqing won't lose either."

"Who do you think is suitable to go?"

"I ask for a fight. I will not return to Daqing until I defeat Nanzhao."

Almost as soon as Dongfang Jing finished speaking, a younger general in military uniform volunteered.

This is a stranger, someone Dongfang Jing had specially trained to be sent to the southwest to quell the rebellion. He had originally planned to send him there after a while, but unexpectedly the timing was right now. Dongfang Jing thought it was a good idea to send him there to see how effective the training was.

Dongfang Jing was very satisfied, and immediately issued an oral order: "Shan, from now on, you will lead the army to the south."

"Thank you, Her Majesty." The young general saluted with his hands clasped together.

In just a few words, the attitude towards Nanzhao was determined.

No, you guys did it so fast? Didn't you even discuss it for two days?

The messenger's pupils trembled. He just wanted to test Daqing's attitude towards Nanzhao. If Daqing agreed to send the princess to Nanzhao, it would prove that Daqing could not afford a second war. Then Nanzhao would not need to be too afraid of Daqing.

If they disagree, although Daqing would be offended, it would not start a war between the two countries over a three-year-old child, especially an orphan who has no parents and no one to rely on.

It can be said that Nanzhao’s move was indeed disgusting.

But Dongfang Jing does not play by the rules. How could he know that Dongfang Jing is such a man of his word, and has long had his eyes on Nanzhao. Regardless of whether Nanzhao surrenders or not, Dongfang Jing will send people to crush Nanzhao.

Now he is using Miaomiao as an excuse, which is like dancing on Dongfang Jing's weak spot. If he doesn't hit him, who else can he hit?

The envoy looked left and right, trying to find someone to stop the Queen Mother. However, these ministers who were chatting happily just now were now looking at each other with their eyes and noses, not moving a muscle, and had no intention of opposing at all.

When it comes to the control of the court by the emperors of Daqing generations, none of them is as good as Dongfang Jing.

No one in the court could stop Dongfang Jing from doing something, unless Dongfang Jing himself changed his mind.

Seeing the envoy's pale face, Dongfang Jing was in a good mood. He smiled slightly on his majestic yet bright face and called the palace maid over:

"The messenger seems tired. Come, take the messenger to rest."

The messenger's soul hadn't returned yet, and he was taken away by the palace maid.

When he came to his senses and wanted to return to Nanzhao to inform the authorities, he found that he had already been under house arrest.

If you want to report the news, maybe in your next life.

Dongfang Jing is not a good person, and he never wants to be honorable. It will be impossible to let the envoy go back sooner or later, at least not before the war starts.

If you can catch Nanzhao off guard, why should you give the opponent time to react? This is not an exam, you need to be fair.

When two countries go to war, it's a life-and-death battle.

After the palace banquet, the ministers went crazy when they returned home. Everyone in the capital knew about the Empress Dowager's favorite little princess, Princess Yong'an. One minister even hit the envoy's head for Princess Yong'an, spilling blood all over the floor.

Now all the people in the capital knew about this, and they spread the word about how much the empress dowager doted on the little princess. Even the princesses and princes in the palace were not as favored as the little princess.

However, as the heroine of the incident, Miaomiao was completely unaware of these rumors because she was busy picking lotus pods.

"This way, this way!"

The cub's sweet voice commanded the palace maids and eunuchs.

The little girl, wearing a pink mini-palace dress, was lying on the boat, giving commands with her chubby little hands full of energy.

On the small boat, the palace maids and eunuchs worked hard to help Miaomiao pick a basket of lotus seeds.

"Thank you~"

Miaomiao used a lotus leaf to shade herself from the sun and spoke sweetly to the palace maids and eunuchs, her eyes wide open, her little face chubby, and her serious look so cute that people wanted to pick more lotus pods for her, letting her pick as many as she wanted.

"These should be enough."

Miaomiao looked at the lotus pods on the boat and talked to herself.

Grandma seemed to be in a bad mood recently, so Miaomiao secretly ran to see the imperial physician. The physician said a lot, but the little fool’s brain was not big enough. He only remembered that the physician said lotus seeds can clear away heat and detoxify. So, the little kid ran to pick lotus pods in a hurry.

A basket of lotus pods is enough for a month.

"It's definitely enough. The Queen Mother must be very happy to know that you care so much about her."

Liu Zhu praised Miaomiao generously.
