Empress Cao was dazed by the afternoon sun and was in a state of sleepiness. She enjoyed this time very much. As the head of the harem, she had a lot of trivial matters, and such leisure was rare.
"Your Majesty...the young prince fell...from the swing..."
The palace maid was crying, but she still had to say it. She knew that she was afraid that she would die. If the young prince... I'm afraid it's not if, but if something really happened, then something would happen to her too, and it would be a big problem.
How could this be the case? How could this be the case?
Queen Cao has lost her manners...
This time... this time... this is not a disease, this is negligence, this is my own negligence! I shouldn't agree to Xi'er's request, and I shouldn't let him go and have fun like this!
How can I redeem myself? How can I be worthy of the Song Dynasty? Xi'er, please don't get into trouble!
…
Fortunately, the rope and swing base that Zhao Xi threw away had already flown far away when Zhao Xi made an air control move.
When Zhao Xi landed, he was alone. The moment he felt his feet touch the ground, the essentials of action to avoid damage quickly took shape in his mind...
The moment Zhao Xi landed, he leaned forward, held his head in his hands, and placed his head as close to his knees as possible and between his legs.
A child's body is much more flexible than an adult. Zhao Xi never thought that he could actually perform such standard movements at this time.
Gao Taotao ran ahead, followed by a large group of palace maids and eunuchs...
"Sanlang...wuwuwu...brother Xi..."
While running, I fell down, then got up and continued running and crying.
The little girl has been having fun playing with Xilang these days. She knows it hurts to fall out like this, and it hurts when she falls.
So, she had already cried first... The Xilang she saw at this time was a meat ball rolling forward.
"Ah...your lord..."
Even the maids and eunuchs are dead. They all know that this crime is too serious and death is certain. It just depends on how they die.
The thought of suffering less death encouraged them to run forward with Madam Tao behind.
Zhao Xi's movements were in place, and he was balled up into a ball, which effectively resolved the forward momentum thrown out.
But he still overestimated a two or three-year-old child's ability to withstand body rotation. Just before he was about to stop, Zhao Xi fainted.
When Zhao Xi opened his eyes, he found that there were people around him, and he was being held by the queen. The doctor was about to pull out his eyelids...
"Mother, I'm fine."
Looking at Empress Cao's makeup, which was stained with tears, and her front that was wet with tears, Zhao Xi suddenly felt sad... Alas, he was in trouble. With the current Song Dynasty, he really couldn't make any mistakes.
"Xi'er..."
Huh? Dad is here too?
Zhao Xi turned his head... There were so many people, and they were all wearing court uniforms.
"Dad, the baby doesn't feel hurt, it's fine."
Zhao Xi struggled to get out of the Queen's arms, but Queen Cao hugged her tightly, and she just squatted on the ground without any image.
"Xi'er, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
"Dad, the baby is fine...Mom, the baby can go to the ground."
Zhao Xi struggled again, and the stall queen also recovered. Being able to hear Zhao Xi speak so clearly brought her back to her senses.
"Your Majesty, the prince is indeed fine."
The imperial doctor saw that Zhao Xi was not like a seriously injured person, so he checked the young prince's fontanel and limbs and found that there were no injuries.
Zhao Xi got off the ground and bowed politely to his father, the queen and several others in official uniforms... He had been taught all the etiquette.
Zhao Zhen felt relieved at this time...
Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Fu Bi and others looked at Zhao Xi in surprise. What shocked them at this time was not that the child was not injured, but perhaps that the person who reported the news had exaggerated. What shocked them was that a two or three-year-old child
The child, after being frightened, could still give gifts so calmly.
"Tell me! What's going on?"
Zhao Zhen wanted to kill everyone present without any explanation, but he couldn't do this in front of his father-in-law.
The royal family has no family affairs, this is what the princes think.
"Back to Your Majesty, when the prince was playing on the swing, the rope of the swing broke..."
"The rope is broken?"
Zhao Zhen was not stupid, he seemed to have thought of something for a moment.
"Everyone present is punished with the rod!"
Death penalty can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. If we don't deal with it, I'm afraid these servants won't care about it in the future.
"Dad, the child has something to say."
Zhao Xi knew very well that this was not the fault of these servants at all. He probably knew his father too, but he had to deal with such an accident... It was hard for anyone to speak at this time, so he had to speak for himself.
.
Indeed, when Fan Zhongyan and others saw Zhao Zhen's treatment, they also thought it was inappropriate, but in this situation, they could not speak. Prince E was too important to the emperor and to the Song Dynasty, and there was indeed a need to deal with it.
My merciful Majesty, such a punishment is not severe.
"Xi'er..."
"Father, mother-in-law, gentlemen, this matter is not a servant's fault. The rope was broken. It was the fault of the rope and not anyone's fault. Therefore, I sincerely ask my father to forgive them."
It became quiet all of a sudden. There was no sound in the entire scene. Even the palace maids and eunuchs who were crying and waiting for death stopped.
The queen had just stood up. Her body was so weak that she still needed help from her servants. But upon hearing Zhao Xi's words, she stood up straight and stared blankly at the child.
The main reason why Empress Cao indulged Zhao Xi in playing so much was because this child always made people worry-free and was smarter than ordinary people.
She never told the officials, thinking of waiting... But today, Xi'er showed virtue, which represented the merit of her teaching.
I really couldn't help but be shocked.
When Zhao Zhen heard Zhao Xi's words, he first glanced at Zhao Xi in surprise, then looked up at the sunset with tears in his eyes.
The sunset is very beautiful, and the shape seems like a golden dragon soaring... The sky has eyes!
"Your Majesty, why do you think so?"
Fan Zhongyan didn't even bother to ask the emperor for instructions, and asked Zhao Xi a little hastily.
"That's how it is. The queen said children can't lie."
It's really hard to pretend to be a child.
Zhao Xi's originally prepared statement was: seek truth from facts, but I really don't know if there is such a word at this time.
You can be a monster, but you can't act too monstery. If you create words out of thin air, and then create words that are so apt and vivid, then you are going too far.
Going too far will not convince people, it will only make people suspicious.
So the moment Zhao Xi left the door, he directly told the queen about it. As for whether the queen said it, is it important?
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the Queen is virtuous, and the Prince is smart, they are indeed a blessing to our Song Dynasty!"
"Congratulations, Your Majesty... Congratulations, Your Majesty..."
Under the leadership of Fan Zhongyan and others, there was a huge uproar, and the scene directly turned into compliments and celebrations.
It's just a matter of unifying the world for eternity.
Isn't it said that scholar-bureaucrats have character? Look at this situation... They are all old foxes. They just talked about an ancient temple and they acted like a Chinese chat room. That's awesome!
In this situation, let alone amnesty for the whole world, it is always inappropriate to deal with the servants.
I dare to think that this fall will bring out a big celebration. Go ahead! This far-fetched ability seems to have been around since ancient times.
