Chapter 579

Huo Mingzhu, who has never been involved in the affairs of the previous dynasty, eventually came out of her back palace. She walked alone in the empty palace, only to find that even the eunuchs and maids who used to come and go in the past were rarely seen.

He went straight to the imperial study and knew that Baili Jingqi must still be there. Huo Mingzhu didn't need anyone to lead the way or pass on. Her ears were filled with the sad cry of Baili xiner when she just went out.

"Mother, I want to see my father, too, and Xin'er wants his father."

If the nurse didn't follow her quickly, I'm afraid she would not want to leave her daughter and come to Baili Jingqi alone.

There was a wry smile on her lips. Huo Mingzhu looked up at the imperial study which was getting closer and closer in front of her. She was a little far away. She heard a scream coming from there.

"Spare your life, my Lord."

"I beg the emperor to save me a dog's life. I know I'm wrong."

The shrill scream was mingled with the dull sound of the thick board beating on the skin.

The frightened Huo Mingzhu is familiar with that kind of voice. Has anyone been punished and beaten again?

Step by step, Huo Mingzhu walked towards the outer courtyard of the noisy imperial study. Sure enough, he saw two slaves lying on the ground. The only thing that was being taken off was the profane trousers, but the flesh and blood had been beaten under him.

"Don't beg, shut up and save your dog's life!"

Cao An stood with his back to Huo Mingzhu. He used to look at him whenever he was kind. Now his shoulders are slightly bent, but it makes people feel gloomy. Even his sharp voice is particularly harsh.

Raising her eyes over Cao An's shoulder, Huo Mingzhu looks at the still closed imperial library door. Is he in it?

"The emperor -- the emperor -- the slave is wronged --"

"I beg the emperor to spare my life."

The two little eunuchs, who were beaten and screamed, could not listen to Cao An's advice at this time. They screamed bitterly at the top of their voices, making the eunuchs and bodyguards standing upright.

"Still shouting! Do you want to die? " As soon as Cao An's face changed, he raised his hand and let the guards surround him.

Two people in charge of one, drag the shoulder to drag the shoulder, cover the mouth to cover the mouth, that appearance is obviously did not intend to leave those two little eunuchs life.

Cao An looked at the two eunuchs who had lost their breath. He waved and asked people to deal with them directly. When he turned around, he saw Huo Mingzhu. He didn't know how long he had been standing there.

"The slave, the slave kowtowed to the empress, but she didn't welcome me. Please forgive me."

The sound of kneeling on the bluestone board was stuffy, which made Huo Mingzhu's brow wrinkle for no reason. Especially after Cao An knelt down, the blood spot just covered by his back came into her eyes.

Without paying attention to Cao An or those slaves who knelt down with Cao An, Huo Mingzhu walked slowly. Her destination seemed to be the imperial study with the door still closed!

"Niang Niang, Niang Niang, stay!" Cao An kneels on the ground and stops him. He knocks his head on the ground deeply. He still refuses to let her see Bai Li Jing Qi, just like that night.

Huo Mingzhu didn't say anything, but her cold eyes were staring at the back of Cao An's head. Did he really think he didn't dare to do anything to Cao An?

How presumptuous! Dare to hide her truth to this day!
