Chapter 4 - Overestimating Strength

"Let's go!" Chen Xi heaved a sigh of relief and said.

Feng Ji extended his hand and made a 'please' gesture.

"Chen Xi! Chen Xi... " Duanmu Yan glanced sideways, and called towards the door of the room.

Following the creaking sound of the door, several young maids and eunuchs hurriedly rushed to the front of the bed.

"Emperor! What orders do you have? "

Duanmu Yan looked around, but did not see Chen Xi's figure. She pouted: Where did Chen Xi go?

"Reporting to Emperor, Aunt Chen Xi has been taken away!"

Duanmu Yan was startled: "Where did you bring him?"

"The torture chamber!"

Duanmu Yan stood up, her round face bulging like a crystal bun: "Who is so bold as to bring my Chen Xi into the torture chamber?"

Everyone trembled, "Reporting to the Emperor, this is the order of the Prince Regent!"

"Prince Regent?" Duanmu Yan tilted her head and first thought of his handsome face, then she thought of his evil deeds: "That scoundrel with a pretty face and a smelly face?"

"…" Everyone looked at each other. For a moment, they didn't know whether to answer him or not.

If the answer 'yes' was given, wouldn't that mean that they were also indirectly cursing the Prince Regent? If it were to reach the ears of the Prince Regent one day, they would have to move their heads together.

"I'm asking you guys a question!" Before waiting for a reply, Duanmu Yan urged him.

"…" Everyone's heart was instantly twisted into braids. They lowered their heads and pretended to be in a daze.

Duanmu Yan angrily slapped the bed, she was fuming, but she did not have the majesty of an emperor, instead, he was acting like a spoiled little girl: "We are the Emperor, if you do not obediently answer us, we will get our people to spank you guys!"

Everyone looked at each other. After a moment, they bit the bullet and said, "Yes!"

"Scoundrel!" It's fine if you dare to bully us, but you actually dare to bully our Chen Xi. Duanmu Yan said that wind is rain, she lifted the blanket and got off the bed.

Everyone panicked: "Emperor! You're the one who gave birth to the little prince, your body is weak, you shouldn't go out! "

"Then all of you go and help us teach that bad guy who captured Chen Xi a lesson!" Duanmu Yan replied without hesitation.

Everyone subconsciously retreated, and collectively pretended to be dead.

Duanmu Yan snorted, with an expression that said she knew you would do such a thing.

He walked towards the outside.

The crowd felt bitter and did not dare to say anything more. They hurriedly followed him.

A servant girl who had good eyes quickly took a cloak and covered Duanmu Yan with it: "Emperor! It's cold outside, don't you dare freeze! "

— —

Duanmu Yan walked out of the dungeon, and coincidentally saw Gong Shengrui and Feng Ji walking out from the dungeon.

"Scoundrel!" Who allowed you to capture my Chen Xi without permission? "

Gong Shengrui's sharp eyes swept across the servants and eunuchs behind Duanmu Yan who did not dare to even breathe loudly. "Emperor has just given birth to a little prince, yet you guys actually allowed her to walk freely in this world of ice and snow.

Everyone was terrified and kneeled on the ground.

"This servant deserves to die!"

"This servant deserves to die!"

Gong Shengrui was indifferent to their words: "Pull them down, everyone fight a total of ten boards!"

"Yes sir!"

"Let's see who dares!" Duanmu Yan was like an eagle protecting small chickens as she stood in front of everyone. Her eyes that were full of anger glared at Gong Shengrui through the guards, "It's my fault that I want to come out myself, it's not their fault. Why are you beating them up?"

"Just based on that, they are confused along with their master!" Gong Shengrui ran over to the guard, and like an eagle grabbing a chick, he picked Duanmu Yan up and ordered, "Take him away already!"
