Chapter 100 His Majesty Calls the Female Officials into the Palace

The subordinates of Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple rushed to the imperial city to present evidence.

The royal family had already given word of the outing banquet, and they started walking to the capital the next afternoon.

Therefore, the remaining time is for everyone to move freely.

Pei Xingyuan was called into the palace by the emperor that night, so Mi Xiayao did not dare to leave Mi Xiaobao even an inch.

Even when Zhu Xiuxiu came to practice martial arts with her at night, Mi Xiayao asked Song Qiao to hold the child and stand in a cloak where she could see him.

Not for anything else, just for that little sense of security.

Mi Xiayao still believed a little about what Prince Qin Qiao did during the day...

She believed that if she pushed him too hard, she could use the child as a hostage to threaten Pei Xingyuan to tell the so-called...facts.

It was still a bit cold at night. Zhu Xiuxiu stood in front of Mi Xiayao with one hand on her hip and a spear in her hand.

"Sister Mi, raise your arms a little, then tighten your abdomen. Yes, your movements should be neat and don't hesitate."

"My master said that if you hesitate on the battlefield, the cost is unpredictable. It may hit your lifeline somewhere, or it may only be a minor injury, but no matter what, it is not good to be injured."

Zhu Xiuxiu stood aside and muttered a lot of words earnestly, then took advantage of the situation and pointed out the unqualified areas with a spear.

After a set of martial arts movements, Mi Xiayao felt that her arms were not arms and her legs were not legs.

After finally enduring it, Zhu Xiuxiu relaxed and took a rest. She no longer cared about her image and fell directly to the ground.

"Xiuxiu, I won't be able to practice this martial arts for more than a few days. I will definitely be sore tomorrow."

She endured it again and again, but in the end she couldn't help but speak out what was in her heart.

Zhu Xiuxiu is usually innocent, straightforward and a very cute little girl.

But once Zhu Xiuxiu entered the state of martial arts practice, her strict expression made Mi Xiayao almost unable to bear it.

"Sister Mi, there is a saying in our family, you must listen to this.

"The soreness in your body means that you have practiced well. If you can resist the soreness and continue to exercise, one day you will be able to overcome all hardships. Sister Mi, don't you want to work hard and fight to the end?"

The little girl frowned.

Mi Xiayao: "..." She never thought that one day, she would shoot herself in the foot.

"I practice..." She twitched her lips and stood up with some pain.

This kind of pain lasted for half an hour, and finally Zhu Xiuxiu was satisfied.

As the little girl nodded, Mi Xiayao immediately dropped the soft sword in her hand and almost fell to the grass.

Song Qiao stood aside and almost couldn't bear it. She exclaimed and led Mi Xiaobao towards her direction.

"Madam, I will boil some eggs tonight and rub the painful areas for you."

"Hey, that's right. Hot compress will make you feel a little more comfortable." Zhu Xiuxiu nodded with satisfaction.

She helped Mi Xiayao put away the soft sword, and said to her with a soft smile: "Sister Mi will definitely have a good sleep tonight! I will come to see you again tomorrow morning~!"

After saying that, Zhu Xiuxiu kindly helped Song Qiao support Mi Xiayao, who was soft all over.

Three people staggered back to the tent with a child.

After Zhu Xiuxiu left, Mi Xiayao sat up from the bed.

"No, I'm going to escape from this place of right and wrong tonight. If I had known... I wouldn't have let the general teach me. What's the difference between this and taking my life!?"

Mi Xiaobao was lying on the bedside, his big black eyes blinking at Mi Xiayao.

The child seemed to understand his mother's emotions, and waved his short hand again and again, "Mother--mother!"

Mi Xiayao caught his waving little hand and teased the child.

Song Qiao, who was tinkering with hot eggs on the side, said with a smile on his face: "Madam said at the beginning that you should exercise to avoid many dangers in the future. Have you forgotten all this?"

Mi Xiayao was angrily resisting Zhu Xiuxiu's martial arts training methods just a second ago.

The next second he immediately lay down on the bed peacefully and sighed.

Yes...you have to have some martial arts in order to protect yourself.

"But... I have money. If I use so much money to hire a female bodyguard, wouldn't it save me a lot of physical pain?"

"Then Madam, you should at least work harder to make money and hire two female secret guards to take turns guarding you. Only one secret guard doesn't need to rest?"

"..."

Mi Xiayao wailed in her brocade quilt.

Song Qiao prepared hot eggs and gently applied them to the uncomfortable areas of Madam.

The comfortable technique made Mi Xiayao feel a little drowsy. Just as her thoughts were wandering, she was about to meet with Duke Zhou.

Suddenly, the mother-in-law outside the door said that the lady was taking a rest, causing her to open her eyes suddenly.

"The Miscellaneous Family was invited by the palace to pay a visit to the palace, following His Majesty's instructions."

The eunuch's falsetto was so sharp that Mi Xia Yao could hear it clearly from across the tent, let alone the tent next door.

She cheered up and sat up suddenly.

The eunuch seemed to have taken out something to prove his identity, and then he raised his voice and asked inside: "Mr. Mi, are the Za family coming in?"

"Father-in-law, please come in."

Mi Xiayao and Song Qiao glanced at each other hurriedly, and then they tacitly blocked Mi Xiaobao with the quilt.

She sat on the edge of the bed, blocking the head of the child behind her, and looked at the approaching father-in-law with a smile.

"It's late at night, how come my father-in-law is still working so hard to come here?"

"This is not what the Za family wanted to do. Your Majesty, please come to the palace and have a seat."

emperor?

Although Mi Xiayao looked calm, she was thinking about something rapidly in her heart.

She winked at Song Qiao, who received the signal and took a bag of broken silver from the dressing table.

Song Qiao walked to his father-in-law and thrust the bag of silver into his father-in-law's hand.

The eunuch's face looked a little impatient at first, but he quietly weighed it with his hands.

His originally unattractive face finally had some sunshine.

"I don't know... His Majesty summoned me to the palace late at night. What's the important matter?"

"Mr. Mi, don't you know that Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple went to the palace to report the Miao family case yesterday?"

She couldn't be more clear about this matter.

Calling her in so anxiously late at night...

There are only two possibilities, either Pei Xingyuan cannot be protected, the emperor knows that she has an "illegitimate child" and wants to punish her, saying that she is unethical;

Or, the Miao family had a big face and protected Miao Qi, convincing the emperor to come forward and try to smooth over the matter.

"Father-in-law, please wait for a moment. After I finish packing, I will follow my father-in-law into the palace."

The eunuch looked vaguely impatient, but the broken silver in his hand was very heavy.

He urged with some reluctance: "Excuse me, female officer, please hurry up."

Mi Xiayao hurriedly changed into a set of relatively plain clothes. After thinking about it for a while, she put another thought into it and tied two balls of cotton on her knees.
