Chapter 1017: Chapter 878: Xiao Ning’Er Stirs Up Trouble

The Emperor angrily berated Xiao Ning’Er, while Xiao Ning’Er shouted at Xie Pan’Er.

"Xie Pan’Er, you vixen!

I knew you weren’t a good person, you actually dared to seduce my cousin the Emperor in broad daylight!"

In no time, the Palace Maids of Wanhua Palace gathered around.

Xie Pan’Er was thus subjected to their pointing and whispering. "Hold your tongue for me! If you continue this nonsense, believe it or not, I will have you expelled from the Palace?"

Hearing Xiao Ning’Er’s insults towards Xie Pan’Er, the Emperor’s anger flared uncontrollably, directly threatening Xie Pan’Er!

"Miss Ning’Er, seeing as you are my own cousin, I will overlook your nonsense today, but you must apologize to Pan’Er!"

"Apologize to her?

Why?

She is just a vixen, I saw her seducing you with my own eyes!"

Xiao Ning’Er, in anger, ran to the screen and pushed it down in one swift motion.

Behind the screen appeared Xie Pan’Er, fully dressed, while holding the dirty clothes she had changed out of earlier!

"Miss Xiao Ning’Er, what is the meaning of this?"

"You... why are you dressed?"

Xiao Ning’Er was momentarily befuddled.

"I was dressed the whole time!"

Xie Pan’Er waved the clothes in front of Xiao Ning’Er and said, "I was just about to take these dirty clothes out to be washed, Miss Xiao Ning’Er, do you have a problem with that?"

"Weren’t you undressing in broad daylight to seduce my cousin the Emperor?"

Xie Pan’Er laughed at this, "I, seduce His Majesty the Emperor? Which eye of yours saw me trying to seduce him?"

"I clearly saw it just now!" Xiao Ning’Er seemed a bit anxious and quickly turned to look at the Emperor, "Cousin the Emperor, I clearly saw her undressing behind the screen just now, didn’t I? She was seducing you, right?"

The Emperor’s face darkened further: "Enough! Xiao Ning’Er, you’re simply being unreasonable, lacking proper decorum, I see you’re idle all the time, since that’s the case, I will punish you to transcribe the ’Women’s Rules’ a hundred times! Until you finish, you are not allowed to leave Wanhua Palace!"

The Emperor’s angry decree left everyone startled, especially Xiao Ning’Er, her cousin the Emperor actually scolded her?

Also punished her!

No!

Cousin was never this harsh!

In her memory, no matter what she said to cousin the Emperor, whether he agreed or disagreed, he always responded with a gentle and polite smile.

Just like a true gentleman!

But just now, cousin the Emperor actually scolded her!

"Cousin the Emperor... you... you scolded Ning’Er!

What did Ning’Er do wrong that you have to scold her like this?"

Tears streamed down Xiao Ning’Er’s face as she looked aggrievedly at the Emperor, tears falling in large drops.

Seeing her like this, the Emperor couldn’t help but feel a surge of irritation, he fixedly stared at Xiao Ning’Er and coldly asked.

"Do you really not know where you went wrong?"

Xiao Ning’Er shook her head forcefully, nervously replying, "Ning’Er truly does not know!"

"I ask you again, do you truly not know?"

Xiao Ning’Er continued to shake her head, suddenly becoming hysterical, pointing at Xie Pan’Er and yelling, "Ning’Er truly does not know! It’s clearly her fault, when I came in, I saw her changing clothes inside, cousin the Emperor, a man, was standing right there, and she didn’t avoid suspicion at all! She’s shameless, she’s just a vixen."

"Enough! Xiao Ning’Er, I’ve endured again and again, today I will not let you continue your wild and baseless accusations here!"

The Emperor suddenly erupted in anger, gritting his teeth in rage.

Xiao Ning’Er, seeing the Emperor like this for the first time, was frightened out of her wits, timidly crying out, "Cousin the Emperor!"

The Emperor, still seething, let out a cold snort: "You know that when calling me, you should add ’Emperor’ before ’cousin;’ I am the Emperor, and I will not allow you to slander me! You say that Pan’Er undressed in broad daylight to seduce me; whether or not Pan’Er truly intended such seduction, just the notion of me, as the ruler of a nation, openly watching a girl change clothes, how do you expect me to act as a sovereign, how should I face the people and scholars of the realm?"

Xiao Ning’Er was dumbfounded, the Palace Maids and Eunuchs in Wanhua Palace hastily knelt down, "Your Majesty, please quell your anger!"

Eunuch Lin also hurriedly knelt, secretly tugging at the hem of Xiao Ning’Er’s dress, signaling her to kneel and beg for forgiveness!

It was only then that Xiao Ning’Er realized that she had indeed caused a great trouble this time!
