Seeing Tian Mi looking at him longingly, Nan Muchen paused and said, “The maids pointed out by Concubine Liang just now each have twenty boards.”
As soon as Nan Muchen finished speaking, the guards immediately came forward and pulled the maids away.
Liu Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened in surprise. She had no idea that Nan Muchen would actually punish those palace maids for Tian Mi.
One of them is Cui Yao, who is highly valued by her.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please forgive me! Cui Yao only offended Sister because she saw Sister dumping the whole bowl of glutinous rice balls on this concubine, it was because of the protector’s eagerness. What’s more, Sister just taught Cui Yao a lesson. You see, Cui Yao’s face is swollen.” Liu Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground and looked at Nan Muchen pitifully.
A pair of talking eyes, filled with crystal tears as if they would fall quietly in the next second. Although her delicate facial features were not as gorgeous and delicate as Tian Mi’s, they were particularly endearing.
Of course, he knew that Cui Yao had been beaten up by Tian Mi until her nose was bruised and her face was swollen. He secretly marveled at Tian Mi’s strength to beat someone like this in just a few breaths.
He asked the palace maids because he did not want to be entangled by Tian Mi, so he simply gave the order.
Now that the order had been issued, it was a big deal. Just reward Concubine De with something later, Nan Muchen thought.
What’s more, it was not like he didn’t see what happened just now.
It was indeed Liu Xiaoxiao who held on to the bowl and Tian Mi suddenly let go and stood up, only to be sprayed all over.
Did Liu Xiaoxiao do this because he wanted him to punish Tian Mi?
Thinking of this, Nan Muchen’s eyes darkened.
He couldn’t figure out why Liu Xiaoxiao targeted Tian Mi like this. She actually let such hot glutinous rice balls be sprinkled on her in order to successfully frame Tian Mi.
He lowered his head and glanced at Tian Mi, who was wiping his tears and runny nose with her sleeve and hiccupping constantly, with a trace of disgust in his eyes.
Tian Mi was so stupid now, what reason did Liu Xiaoxiao have to frame her?
Nan Muchen really felt very strange.
While he was lost in thought, the sound of slapping flesh was heard outside the pavilion, as well as the sound of the beaten palace maid begging for mercy.
Nan Muchen twitched the hand held by Tian Mi, and Tian Mi immediately squeezed him again. She still raised her head and stared at him accusingly.
Nan Muchen was stunned for a moment and then said helplessly: “Here~ I’ve already beaten the person who bullied you just now. You should go back to Mi Hua Palace quickly.”
Tian Mi nodded obediently and took Nan Muchen away.
Nan Muchen stared with a puzzled look on his face: “Why are you dragging me along?”
“Go back! You said so!” Tian Mi tilted her head and glanced at him strangely as she walked.
Nan Muchen chuckled lightly and simply let Tian Mi pull her away.
He wanted to see what trick Tian Mi wanted to play.
Liu Xiaoxiao knelt on the ground, staring blankly at the backs of Nan Muchen and Tian Mi walking away together.
She didn’t expect that the final result would be like this!
She endured the pain of being burned, but in the end, Nan Muchen didn’t even mean to blame Tian Mi at all and was even willing to be dragged away by Tian Mi!
“Ding! The mission failed! Obtained black skin for a month!” The Beloved Concubine System sounded coldly.
In an instant, Liu Xiaoxiao’s skin darkened, from the originally beautiful pearl pink to a wheat color.
It took her originally delicate facial features to more than one level.
The current Liu Xiaoxiao was not even as beautiful as her personal maid, Cui Yao.
