After the first fool

Chapter 69
Mo Xiaoran had just finished eating the sumptuous lunch she had brought, when she saw a group of imperial guards walking towards this direction neatly behind the prison head.

The big lock was removed, and the commander of the imperial guard walked in respectfully, cupped his fists and said, "Empress Empress, the emperor has issued an order, you can go out now."

"Ah, I'm quite reluctant to stay here." Mo Xiaoran rubbed her swollen belly, patted the dust off her body and stood up, looking at the commander with a blank face, her lips curled into a wicked smile: "And You're joking, let's go."

The corner of the commander's mouth twitched, feeling that the queen's personality was really weird, he shook his head, followed her, and escorted her out of the dungeon.

Mo Xiaoran walked in front of the imperial guards, her eyes swept across the cells on the left and right sides, and suddenly, when she saw a figure, her steps stopped.

"Empress?" The commander of the imperial guards looked at Mo Xiaoran who suddenly stopped walking.

"Open the door and let her out." Mo Xiaoran suppressed her anger, looked coldly at the cell boss at the side.

"This..." The cell leader hesitated, "Your Majesty, without the emperor's order, the servants dare not release the criminals in the sky prison without permission."

"I want you to let me go!" Mo Xiaoran snorted, and without waiting for the prison chief to reply, she tore off the key from his waist, opened the cell door, and walked to the woman curled up in the corner in three steps. Beside her, her face was full of anger and pity, she knelt down slowly, looking at the messy Xiao Zhu with messy black hair, her heart throbbed in pain.

It's all her fault.

If it wasn't for her, Xiaozhu wouldn't have become like this.

"Xiao Zhu?" She called out in pain, the man's body trembled slightly, he raised his head, his chaotic eyes were in a trance for a moment, and then he slowly recovered: "Little Miss?"

"I'll take you away." Mo Xiaoran directly picked him up by the waist, ignoring Xiaozhu's slight resistance, and was about to leave the prison.

"Queen, this is unreasonable." The commander of the Imperial Guard reminded from the side, the prisoner in the sky prison, without the emperor's imperial decree and oral order, who would dare to release them privately?

"I will take her away today. If the emperor wants to punish her, let him come to Fengqi Palace and ask me for an explanation." Mo Xiaoran didn't care, she would definitely take Xiaozhu away today.

The commander wanted to persuade him again, but when he saw Mo Xiaoran's icy face, he swallowed the words again, that's all, he can't offend the queen or the emperor, so it's better not to go into this muddy water.

Mo Xiaoran hugged Xiaozhu all the way, and walked back to Fengqi Palace from the prison on foot, completely ignoring the complicated sights of the palace people along the way, and kicked the palace door open. Even the place where the teacup fell remained intact.

She personally helped Xiao Zhu onto the soft couch, seeing her pale face, her heart twitched, she grabbed her hand, and asked softly, "Have you been tortured by them?"

Xiaozhu shook her head, not daring to tell Mo Xiaoran about her torture in the Compassionate Ning Palace, the Queen Mother had already beaten her, she must not let the young lady and the Queen Mother confront each other.

"No, this servant is just scared." Xiaozhu said a little out of breath, her voice trembling.

Mo Xiaoran narrowed her eyes, and a cold light flashed in her eyes. She was working as a policeman, and she was more proficient in criminal psychology than anyone else. How could she not see that Xiaozhu was lying?

"Tell me who is it?" Mo Xiaoran asked slowly, holding her trembling little hand tightly.

Eyes filled with soaring anger, Xiao Zhu shook his head with difficulty: "Miss, this servant is really fine, seeing that you are safe, this servant is already very happy."

"Xiaozhu..." Mo Xiaoran's heart ached, she bent down and hugged her tightly, her eyes flickered coldly in places she couldn't see.

She didn't say anything, but she could guess, besides Bai Zixu, who else could there be except the Queen Mother?
Liao Xue didn't have the guts to torture the emperor and the queen dowager in private, and Xiaozhu was so shy, I'm afraid...

Slowly close your eyes, Bai Zixu!Queen Mother!
Our beams are getting bigger!

"Come here." Mo Xiaoran let go of her hand, supported Xiaozhu to lie down, and called out loudly to the outside of the hall.

"Your servant is here, what are your orders?" A Guardsman quickly ran in with a knife in his hand.

"Please ask the imperial physician to come to Fengqi Palace."

"Yes." The imperial guards immediately took orders, dragging the imperial doctor and rushing from the imperial hospital.

Mo Xiaoran prevented the imperial physician from paying his respects and asked him to diagnose and treat Xiao Zhu, but the result was that she was overly frightened and depressed, which led to a lack of energy and blood, and she could recover with proper care.

She decocted the medicine herself, drank it for Xiaozhu, and watched her fall asleep before leaving the bedroom in catwalks, walked to the peach blossom forest outside the palace, looked at the guards guarding the high wall, and said coldly: "The emperor is here where?"

"Go back to your mother, the emperor should be in the imperial study at this time." A guard replied honestly, but he was muttering in his heart. The queen has never asked about the emperor's whereabouts. The emperor is interested?
Mo Xiaoran hummed softly in her nose, turned around, and walked in the direction of the imperial study.

She had to ask Bai Zixu, why did he dare to attack Xiao Zhu!
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty!" Seeing that the imperial guards were not good, they dodged and stood in front of Mo Xiaoran: "Your Majesty, you should stay in the palace to rest for a while after you get out of the dungeon. If you want to see the emperor, this servant can replace you Go ask the emperor to come over."

"Go away, good dogs don't get in the way." Mo Xiaoran said in a rough voice.

Bai Zixu wished to kill her now, why did he come to Fengqi Palace?If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to the mountain!

She slammed the Imperial Guard who was blocking the way, and walked towards the Imperial Study Room without looking back.

"What should I do?" The imperial guard slapped himself angrily, and immediately pushed his companion beside him: "Hurry up and report to the emperor, the queen has gone to the imperial study."

Mo Xiaoran almost endured the resentment in her belly, like a god of killing, her face was ashen, and she walked around half of the palace before she came to the outside of the imperial study. The carved door was wide open, and there were still courtiers discussing with the emperor inside, Bai Mo Li Quan stood by Bai Zixu's side, adding tea and grinding for him.

"The frontier asked the imperial court for money, military expenses, food and grass, a total of 40 silver. Look, these are all memorials sent by the generals stationed on the frontier." Bai Zixu threw the note in his hand to the two in distress. People, "Now that I have just been in charge, the treasury is empty, where can I find 40 taels to send to the border?"

The prime minister read the memorial carefully, got up and said: "Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, although there are occasional wars on the border, the military expenditure is sufficient every year. I have never heard of it. It is necessary to increase the expenditure. Now it is only the southern border. If the decree is for money, if it sets a precedent, I am afraid that the east, west and north will follow suit, absolutely not."

"The south is adjacent to Lan Yu. The Lan Yu Kingdom has been coveting for many years. Every month, they will spare their lives on the border. The military expenditure in the south is huge, and the military ration consumption is at least double that of the other three parties. Now the general guarding the city asks for food. The king thinks it can be approved." Bai Mo retorted, he is a military officer, he naturally knows how important food and military supplies are to the soldiers, the army has not moved, the food and grass go first, this is the basic of the art of war.

Just when the three of them were discussing whether to approve the military expenditure this time, there was a noise outside the imperial study room, Bai Zixu frowned, Li Quan bowed and walked out with a very winking look, wanting to see what was going on. Who is so bold, dare to make noise here.

"Your Majesty, it's the Empress." Li Quan came in from outside the palace, wiping off his cold sweat, and hurriedly reported.

It's her again?
He didn't go to her to settle accounts, how dare she break into the royal study?

"boom!"

Bai Zixu slapped the dragon case hard, and the memorial on the case fell to the ground. He was full of anger, his eyes were dark, and he looked at the noisy direction outside the hall, "This Mo Xiaoran, is she Do you really think I can't do anything with her?"

Just after being released from the sky prison, dare to come and make a fuss in the Imperial Study Room, what's the point?

Bai Mo sat on the lower chair, holding tea, and the lid of the tea was lifted, covering the faint smile on his lips.

According to her personality, if there is no important matter, she might not set foot here at all.

Mo Qing's face was also livid, he finally released Mo Xiaoran in the court together with the civil servants, but she was lucky, not only did she not repent in Fengqi Palace, she actually ran outside the imperial study and yelled?Mo Qing knelt down on the ground from the chair, "The old minister has no way to teach his daughter, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

"Hmph, I think no one can teach her well, shrew! shrew!" He gritted his teeth, furious.

"Brother Huang, please invite Aunt Huang to come in first, maybe she has something urgent." Bai Mo reminded lightly.

Bai Zixu closed his eyes, suppressed the anger in his heart, sat back on the dragon chair, and waved his hands: "Go, bring the queen in."

When Mo Xiaoran walked into the imperial study, seeing Bai Mo and the prime minister were there, she already felt regretful.

She shouldn't have come here so impulsively, damn it!When she saw that Xiao Zhu's body was weak and thought that she had been secretly used Xing, she completely lost her composure, lowered her gaze to look at the complexities in her eyes, walked slowly to the center, and stood quietly.

She wanted to ask for an explanation for Xiaozhu, why did she rush here impulsively?If it was in modern times, she could talk to Bai Zixu directly with her fists, but this is the palace!He is the emperor!
Mo Xiaoran wished she could slap herself, it seemed that her IQ plummeted after she had been pretending to be crazy during this period of time.

"See the emperor." Mo Xiaoran held back the annoyance in her heart, her face was calm, her head was lowered, and she looked obedient.

The corner of Li Quan's mouth twitched violently. Is this the queen who almost fought with the imperial guards outside the imperial study room just now?How did you change from a tiger to a cat in the blink of an eye?

"What's the purpose of your coming here?" Bai Zixu's eyes were cold, looking at Mo Xiaoran who suddenly became well-behaved, he still remembered that this woman was proud and elegant when she was in Fengqi Palace, but what about now?Is it true that after going to the sky prison and being locked up for a few days, he restrained his temper?

Or did she have other plans?
"I'm here to thank the emperor." Mo Xiaoran raised her head, a gentle smile bloomed on her face, like a spring breeze blowing on her face, and every word she uttered was as light as a goose feather.

Bai Zixu raised his eyebrows, "Oh?"

thank?

"Yes, thank you majesty for letting me go and not prosecuting me for the crime of deceiving you," Mo Xiaoran smiled like a flower, her sparkling eyes were clear, "thank you majesty for treating my court lady so courteously. During the past seven days, I have served delicious food and drinks. , when she was released from prison, she was alive and well, and Mo Xiaoran was really grateful."
