Phoenix that can't smile

Chapter 16 The King's Heart (1)
"Reporting to the king is the order of Master Jin, and the servants dare not disobey it." Xinyue replied tactfully and sharply.

"Is it her?" Emperor Minggong frowned slightly, and ordered in a calm tone: "Xinyue, no matter what, let this girl get up."

"Thank you Long Live Lord for your kindness!" Xinyue was very grateful, and kowtowed several times to Ming Gong on Baosi's behalf.

"Princess, hold on, the king has already pardoned us! Wake up, wake up!" Ah Xi, weeping with joy, ignored the snow and ice on his jacket, and hugged Bao Si who was dying.

"What? Princess? Girl Xinyue, this girl kneeling on the ground is Bao Gui's daughter?" Ming Gong just turned around with his hands behind his back, and stopped walking when he heard the word "Princess" from A Xi. .
"Could it be? She is Baogui's daughter, a court lady of Baoguo? I really can't bear to see her precious daughter forced to go to Beijing to suffer, but I do this to teach Baogui a lesson. Who is not used to it?" Bad sons and daughters?" Suddenly a smirk appeared on the corner of Minggong's mouth, and he turned to ask Xinyue, "Xinyue, is this girl kneeling on the ground the princess of Baoguo's tribute?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, Miss Baosi is indeed a tribute daughter of Baoguo. She was going to enter the palace at Chenshi, but she was punished here because she bumped into Master Jin's phoenix chariot." Xinyue happily replied.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is the princess of Baoguo, and her health is too bad. Just kneeling in the ice and snow, half of her life is dead. Hahaha, the princess of Baoguo is really spoiled!" Ming Gong looked at Baosi's face. With his pale face and furrowed brows, he suddenly felt joking. He shook his gorgeous sky-blue arrow sleeves, and with his hands behind his back, he walked slowly in front of Bao Si like a jade mountain, and joked in a mocking tone.

"Your Majesty, a scholar can be killed, but not humiliated! You have read a lot of poetry and books, I'm afraid you are familiar with this sentence." Unexpectedly, Bao Si, who was almost unconscious, suddenly became excited and argued with her small fists.

"Bold! The one in front of you is the Lord Long Live! How dare you speak to the Lord Long Live in such a tone, do you want to rebel?" As soon as Bao Si finished speaking, Xiao Dezi who was standing respectfully behind Ming Gong scolded him loudly.

Ming Gong stopped Xiao Dezi with a wave of his hand, and said with a crooked smile, "What a savage princess, you have such a stubborn temper, no wonder you annoyed Concubine Jin today, no wonder your father violated the king's law!"

Bao Si endured the grievances for a day, and at this time, she didn't know where the resentment came from, so she said in vain: "What the king said is wrong, the foster father of this servant is a good man! The rumors that he violated the king's law were all fabricated by someone wanton. Personal attack, since your majesty is the son of heaven, you should be aware of the details and return my father's innocence, how can you not distinguish between right and wrong?"

"What? Aren't you Bao Gui's biological daughter?" Ming Gong's heart suddenly sank, and his face turned ugly. "Oh no, the princess is talking nonsense, what should I do?" Axi faltered in fright, and kept winking at Bao Si.

Bao Si coldly stepped forward and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, I'm telling the truth. In fact, the servants are willing to become the Lord Hou because they received the grace of the Lord Bao to save their father, and to repay the Lord Hou." His goddaughter, who went to Beijing to rescue her adoptive father."

"Is that so? You can be regarded as a filial daughter, but with your temper and status, you will definitely suffer in the palace in the future. How can the widow agree to let your adoptive father go?" Ming Gong said with a leisurely smile.

"My lord, please, my adoptive father is indeed a good lord. If I lose him, the people of Baoguo will suffer! My lord is a good man, I will not bear the suffering of my own subjects!" Bao Si turned and begged .
