little fool's child bride

"Mr. Xiao, this is the hangover soup that Lord Rong sent over."

Xiao Xiao opened her eyes dizzily, and what she saw was a nervous little palace lady, who lowered her eyes and dared not look at him.After thinking for a while, he realized that he was given hangover soup, but Xiao Xiao always hated bitter soup, so he waved his hand: "You can put it on the steps, I will drink it later."

"Master Rong asked the servant to watch Mr. Xiao finish his drink." The maid said in a distressed voice.

Xiao Xiao has never been a person who likes to make things difficult for others, so when he heard the maid say this, he took the bowl of hangover soup, wrinkled his nose and started to drink.

"Where's Dr. Rong?"

The palace maid finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Xiao Xiao finished drinking, and she respectfully replied when she heard Xiao Xiao's question: "Master Rong was called to drink by the waiter Bai, that's why I asked my servant to deliver the hangover soup."

Xiao Xiao nodded to express understanding.He blinked a few times, felt that his head was not so dizzy, so he got up and prepared to go back to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.Xiao Xiao is now on the steps below the Hall of Supreme Harmony. The Hall of Supreme Harmony looks like a gigantic beast from a distance, with its big blood-red mouth swallowing all the people and lights here.He turned around and was about to go up, but found that the maid was standing there for some reason, showing no intention of leaving.

"What are you doing standing here?" Xiao Xiao asked strangely, "If you are tired, don't sit here, you will be seen by the guards."

"It's sir who is tired." The maid put the bowl into her lapel, and then gave Xiao Xiao a sly smile, "The servant will not leave, just because I am afraid that Mr. Xiao will fall down..."

Xiao Xiao had a bad heart, but his suddenly befuddled mind made him unable to think.The eyelids were too heavy to support, Xiao Xiao fell forward in a trance, and the maid stepped forward to catch him.

"I don't have any vigilance at all, how come I didn't succeed once?" The maid smacked her lips, hugged Xiao Xiao horizontally, glanced at the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and then flew to the harem with lightness kung fu.

When Xiao Xiao woke up again, she was dragged off the bed.He was in a daze, and before he could tell what happened last night, he heard the emperor's furious roar.The woman weeping weakly, the guards drawing their swords out of their sheaths, and Liu Kaize and Liu Ziming's questioning, Xiao Xiao suddenly became a puppet at the mercy of others, dragged out of the palace by the guards but unable to speak a word.

Xiao Xiao didn't know what happened until she heard that the emperor was going to kill him with a stick.

"The humble minister is wronged!"

It was as if fireworks exploded in Xiao Xiao's mind. He grabbed his hair violently, and then shouted: "I am wronged! I was so drunk last night that a court lady brought me hangover soup and drank it , how would you know it was an ecstasy drug! This minister has fallen into someone else's trick!"

"The witnesses and the material evidence are convincing, and you still dare to argue?" The emperor was so angry that he kicked Xiao Xiao's chest again, "How dare you defile the princess, even death with a stick is not enough to vent my hatred!"

It turned out that the maid last night did not intend to kidnap Xiao Xiao or assassinate Xiao Xiao, but took Xiao Xiao to the Xisan Institute near the Palace of Compassion, where the princess lived.Although the emperor has only two princes, there are quite a few princesses, but none of them were born to Empress Rong and Concubine Lan Gui.The love between emperors and empresses has always been praised by people, but who can really achieve "three thousand weak waters, only take one scoop"?In the face of all kinds of beauties, all the emperor can do is not to give those women titles and not allow them to give birth to princes.

But the princess doesn't care, at least it can be used for marriage in the future.Therefore, the emperor generously named every adult princess a princess, and now there are four princesses with titles.Originally, the imperial daughter was supposed to live with her mother, but it's a pity that these women don't even have titles, so naturally they don't have palaces.All the imperial daughters live in the Xisan Institute near the Compassionate Ning Palace, but three of the four princesses are married, so there is only one little princess left in the Xisan Institute.

"How could I defile the princess!" Xiao Xiao looked at the emperor holding her chest in disbelief, "What can I do when I'm unconscious? Who else can testify? If you have the ability, come and confront me in court!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes, and Liu Ziming saw that he was obviously angry because of Xiao Xiao's indiscriminate distinction, so he quickly knelt down beside Xiao Xiao.

"I also feel that there are many doubts about this matter, so why don't I hand it over to the Dali Temple for a thorough investigation," Liu Ziming thought about the trusted officials of the Dali Temple, "I hope my father will see his past achievements..."

The emperor did not speak, but stared at Liu Ziming with an abnormally cold gaze, which made everyone present tremble with fear.Although Liu Kaize is the prince in name, he has no say in this kind of matter, so he can only worry about them silently in his heart.Fortunately, the emperor nodded after pondering for a while, and asked the guards to send Xiao Xiao to Dali Temple, saying that the minister of Dali Temple must find out the truth within half a month.

"If it's really the murder of a traitor, then that's fine, but if this is the truth, then I will kill you to death."

The emperor ordered Xiao Xiao to be imprisoned in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and then he took Liu Ziming away without even looking at the little princess, as if she was not his daughter at all.The little princess stood in front of the palace gate blankly with her outer shirt in her arms. She looked at the back of her father who had gone away and felt extremely sad, because it was the first time she saw her father.

"That man is right, I really saw my father," the little princess showed a sad smile, and the maid beside her hugged her distressedly, "but my father doesn't seem to remember me at all."

"The princess has me!" The maid stroked the little princess's back lightly, she could almost feel the thinness of the bones, and she couldn't help but secretly scolded the emperor for taking care of children and caring for them, even ordinary folk parents.

The little princess is very sad here, and Xiao Xiao is also suffering at this time, but it is only physically.There is a rule in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice that all new prisoners must be marked with [-] boards no matter what the crime is. One is for the prestige, and the other is for money.The prisons of the Criminal Ministry are divided into four types according to "Heaven, Earth, Xuanhuang". Among them, the Xuanhuang level is the prison of the city and county, while the sky prison and the dungeon are directly under the Ministry of Criminal Justice of the Wangcheng.The dungeon that Xiao Xiao entered was full of civilians imprisoned by the emperor's order, so these jailers were more arrogant than other prisons, because they knew that these people had no possibility of getting out alive.

"People are going to die, wouldn't it be good to live comfortably for a few days?" The prison chief lifted Xiao Xiao's chin with the scabbard, "What's the use of keeping money?"

"I don't have it on me, wait for my friend to come..."

"You are in the death row! What kind of friends are willing to come in to see you!"

The cell boss didn't listen to Xiao Xiao's words, and impatiently gave Xiao Xiao a slap with the scabbard, half of Xiao Xiao's cheeks suddenly became red and swollen.He continued to say viciously: "Since you don't want to give the money, then wait for the board! Let's see if you can survive with your small body!"

Xiao Xiao panicked when she heard that the board was about to hit him, and wanted to plead for mercy again.However, the prison chief didn't listen at all, and with a wave of his hand, the jailer dragged Xiao Xiao down, letting Xiao Xiao cry and scream, and throw peanuts into his mouth leisurely.

"I thought I was a doctor of Guozijian," the prison chief had already learned his identity from the person who escorted Xiao Xiao over. "I'm not a child of those aristocratic families. I really think I can go out? Don't talk about giving money, I'm afraid even I'm too busy to separate myself from you..."

"Two big brothers, be gentle. My friends will definitely thank them when they come!" Xiao Xiao was pushed down on the torture tool, and the cold and greasy touch made Xiao Xiao almost tremble.He looked at the two unsmiling jailers beside him, worried in his heart whether he would be able to carry the twenty boards, and begged for mercy again involuntarily.

However, the two guards didn't say anything, they tied Xiao Xiao's hands and picked up the big bamboo board.One by one, Xiao Xiao felt extremely painful every time, and couldn't help crying out.

pain!

Xiao Xiao's head was occupied by this word, tears or sweat made him unable to open his eyes, only the color of blood was hazy.His mouth was also full of bloody smell, and after the sensation in his butt disappeared, Xiao Xiao was so confused that he wondered whether it was his lips or his tongue that he bit off.

"Okay, let's drag it on." The prison chief held a handful of peanuts in his left hand, and kept picking them up and throwing them into his mouth with his right hand.

The [-]th board was played very quickly, and it was over in less than a cup of tea. Xiao Xiao was dragged into the prison by the jailer like a dead dog.Lying sideways on the dirty and damp thatch, Xiao Xiao seemed to be able to hear something rustling through the straw.Not daring to think about it, Xiao Xiao endured the pain and rolled over to a place without thatch, then stared at the dim candlelight on the corridor wall in a daze.

The Heaven Prison is also called the Shang Prison, not only because all the relatives of the emperor are imprisoned, but also because it is on the ground.But the dungeon, on the contrary, is below ground, so the candlelight is the only source of light.When Xiao Xiao was watching costume dramas, the dungeon had plenty of light, but when he came in, he found that the candlelight could not even be seen clearly in the opposite prison, it was completely dark.

But this unknown darkness is not enough to drive Xiao Xiao crazy, what drives Xiao Xiao crazy is the silence of this dungeon.

Too quiet.

The noise of insects and rats in the thatch seemed to disappear in an instant, and Xiao Xiao couldn't hear any other sounds except for her own movement.One hour, two hours... The dungeon was so quiet that time seemed to have stopped, Xiao Xiao listened to the clamor of stomach churning, the sound of water when you swallowed saliva, and the hissing of lungs caused by every breath. The hissing sound and the low reverberation in the cochlea—and your heart beating louder than the tinnitus, he couldn't help but feel fear and anxiety.Human beings judge whether the surrounding environment is safe by various senses such as vision, hearing, and touch. When a person suddenly cannot sense the outside world with hearing, the fear of the unknown will strike like a mountain.Just like a normal person crossing the road with his eyes closed would find it difficult to move an inch, Xiao Xiao was in such a panic right now, she even forgot the burning pain in her buttocks.
