Su Ziji had no impression of this person. He frowned slightly, and someone immediately replied: "Yes, Mr. Jiang, he has been working in the sewing room."
"Let her come in." Su Ziji said calmly. He had really scared himself just now, fearing that the needle was poisonous or some other witchcraft. But after careful inspection, he found that it was a false alarm. However, he scanned the area and knelt down.
The person who was sitting did not wake up immediately.
After a while, an ordinary-looking maid came in from outside. As soon as she came in, she knelt down on the ground with a frightened sound and kowtowed upward.
"Your Majesty, this servant is Jiang Xiaoyu. I beg Your Majesty to have mercy on me!"
"Are you Jiang Xiaoyu?"
Su Ziji lowered his eyes and stared at the maid.
She is one of those people who looks very ordinary and can easily go unnoticed in a crowd. She doesn't stand out, and based on her demeanor and demeanor, she is probably the kind of person who is diligent and honest.
Seeing her like this, Su Ziji shuddered, fearing that she was a spy.
Spies, in fact, this kind of talent is the most suitable.
Because Dai Wang remained silent for a long time, everyone else had already assumed that Xiaoyu would be severely punished this time.
How noble are dragons and phoenixes?
Forget about everything else, you may not be punished for being sloppy, but actually hurting the king. To put it more seriously, it can even be regarded as a serious crime.
Originally, the king was generous and no one was overly worried. However, hundreds of people were suddenly involved in the siege of the palace. Many of them were respectable and affectionate people. They were all awe-inspiring and did not dare to take any chances.
When King Dai spoke again, he simply said: "There are rules in the palace. If you are careless in doing things, you should be severely punished. I think you can be forgiven, and it is your first offense. You will be punished with thirty bamboo lashes and a fine of three months."
, are you convinced?"
As soon as these words came out, not only the maid Xiaoyu who was kneeling on the ground, but also others subconsciously raised their heads and looked at Su Ziji.
Su Ziji only looked at the maid in front of him lightly.
As soon as Xiaoyu and Su Ziji's eyes met, they immediately lowered their heads: "I am convinced, Your Majesty is kind, I am grateful!"
"Just remember, it's okay to make mistakes in your work, but it's hard to let go of being unfaithful. Go down and receive your punishment."
Su Ziji seemed to be speaking casually, but he gave her a meaningful look.
Xiaoyu trembled at Su Ziji's sight, thinking that she had been exposed, but then she thought that if she had been exposed, she would not be dismissed so lightly.
Besides, not only was she well hidden, but she had also shown herself to be quite loyal before. It was impossible for the King to know why she did what she did this time, so it would not have been exposed.
When I think about it like this, my heart slowly relaxes.
Su Ziji looked at others at this time: "You all should get up too. It is Jiang's fault this time, and you have also neglected your duty. How can you not check Gu Zhi's clothes carefully?"
"Each of them will be punished with twenty bamboo lashes and one month's worth of money as a fine."
"My slave is guilty, thank you for your magnanimity!" In response, two strong women swarmed up, picked up Xiaoyu like an eagle and rushed out. Xiaoyu did not dare to call for help, or even struggled, with a pitiful look on her face.
Su Ziji glanced at her lightly again, then looked away: "Change to another one."
I pricked my hand in my outer robe just now, and there were a few drops of blood on it. It seemed to everyone that it was not appropriate to wear it again today, and someone had already gotten up to get a new robe.
This time they touched it inside and out and found that there was no problem, so the maids put it on for the king more carefully.
Su Ziji had a calm expression. After getting dressed, he got up and entered the study. As soon as he sat down, a flash of white rushed in, chirping in front of him.
Su Ziji pretended not to hear it at first and just lowered his head to read.
The little fox jumped onto the desk with a slight leap, and gently nudged the book in Su Ziji's hand with its nose.
Su Ziji then turned the book upside down on the table and lowered his eyes to look at it.
"What?" Su Ziji asked knowingly.
"Chirp!" The little fox barked twice, jumped on the table twice, and stretched out its paws. Su Ziji immediately understood. This meant that it had made several meritorious deeds before, and he couldn't forget them.
Got this.
This little guy really seizes the opportunity to show his merit.
But Su Ziji didn't find it so annoying.
He chuckled lightly and flicked its forehead with his finger: "Yes, you have merit. This time, I will give you a great merit. I will remember it."
"Chirp!" The little fox sat down on the table this time and looked at him with watery eyes.
"No wonder there was a legend in later generations that King Zhou doted on a vixen. This little fox was his pet, and it looked really cute."
"You don't even have to be in human form, pets are just fine."
Su Ziji secretly thought about this and smiled at it: "I heard that your family originally had the title of Lord Qingqiu. Can I also name you Lord Qingqiu?"
This sounds like a joke at first glance. After all, the only person who can really grant a title to the Qingqiu Fox Clan is the emperor.
Even if Su Ziji does have dragon energy now and is inextricably related to the Dragon Lord, he still can't do this.
But for some reason, even though the acting king had no power to seal the throne, the little fox suddenly felt a subtle change in his body after hearing this, and was shocked.
It felt it carefully and found that half of the rosewood in its body shook and seemed to react.
But if you feel it carefully, the feeling disappears quickly.
Chirp? What's going on?
The little fox was confused and puzzled, and also had some inexplicable expectations. After waiting for a moment, and finding that there was indeed no movement, he could only suppress his thoughts and just raised his head and continued to look at the king in front of him.
At this time, King Dai suddenly raised his hand and looked towards the window.
"Gu's blood... was transported out of the house." Su Ziji said softly.
"Chirp?"
"Blood?" The little fox heard clearly and tilted his head slightly, as if he didn't understand what Su Ziji meant.
Su Ziji touched its head, didn't say anything more, and just closed his eyes.
I have achieved great perfection by practicing [Panlong Heart Technique]. In the past, I was afraid that only Dragon Lord could reach it, but the spiritual energy was not obvious and it didn't seem to have much effect.
But as the world changes, the mystery becomes more and more apparent.
First of all, I clearly feel that the connection between myself and heaven and earth is getting closer and closer.
The various auras in the air seem to have become their own surroundings. Although they are naughty and sometimes run away like a child who is ignorant and need to be "restrained and disciplined", most of the time, when he is comprehending the world, he is surrounded by people.
He can quickly absorb the spiritual energy and use it for himself.
While waiting, Su Ziji also gradually discovered something, that is, the things that were contaminated with his aura could be vaguely felt when he was immersed in the world.
The more he sinks into it, the more obvious the feeling becomes.
Just like now, something with a little bit of my own blood and a little bit of tiny parts is being secretly carried out of the front door.
Because it was hidden and no one thought that someone would take something like this out, no one stopped them.
"Blood and hair?"
Feeling that a little part of himself was gradually disappearing, Su Ziji suddenly opened his eyes.
His eyes were extremely sharp, and when he opened them suddenly, a golden light flashed in them.
