Chapter 104

Inside the Imperial Study.

Xiao Yunzhou was wide-eyed, looking at the skinny Little Eunuch who was kneeling on the ground, begging and apologizing in terror.

"I deserve to die, I deserve to die!"

"It wasn't intentional!"

The Little Eunuch kept knocking his head on the floor, his forehead quickly swelling and turning red, his face pale with fear.

Was this the person with a strength of 99?

Xiao Yunzhou doubted what he had heard.

His daughter couldn't be wrong, the only one who could be wrong was him.

"Fool! You can't even walk properly!" Wei Zheng was about to kick the Little Eunuch. "If you hurt the Little Princess, even your death wouldn't be enough to compensate!"

Xiao Yunzhou saw Wei Zheng was about to kick the Little Eunuch to the ground, his heart pounded heavily.

"Stop!" He put down his teacup abruptly and stood up.

Wei Zheng was taken aback.

The Little Eunuch on the ground was covered in tears and snot from fear.

But Xiao Yunzhou stood up nervously.

He quickly walked around the desk to Wei Zheng, took the blushing and wide-eyed Little Chuchu into his arms.

Only when he held his daughter and smelled her milky scent did Xiao Yunzhou managed to breathe slightly easier. He took two steps back and looked at the still terrified Little Eunuch on the ground.

"Your Majesty, shall I drag him out?" Wei Zheng asked.

"Shut up." Xiao Yunzhou took a deep breath.

Strength 99, even during his peak years of leading troops in wars, the Duke had only reached 93.

Drag this Little Eunuch out?

Who would dare to do it?

Perhaps the imperial guards standing outside the hall wouldn't even be able to do it!

Little Chuchu was now completely awake in Xiao Yunzhou's arms, and suddenly remembered the plot of the novel.

【Eh, I remember now, there was an assassin from the previous dynasty hidden in Jing Country's palace, trying to assassinate the emperor to avenge the previous dynasty, could it be him?】

Xiao Yunzhou was startled, the warmth from the brazier in the Imperial Study could not dispel the chill on his body.

An assassin from the previous dynasty?

The founding emperor of Jing Country, his ancestors, used to be farmers tending crops.

But the previous dynasty was filled with disasters and heavy taxes, more and more people starved to death, and gradually there were uprisings by the destitute.

The founding emperor of Jing Country was one of them. He led tens of thousands of followers to overthrow the previous dynasty, granted amnesty to the world, and renamed the country Jing.

Most of the descendants of the previous dynasty's imperial family died in the fire in the previous imperial palace. There were no records of anyone surviving.

The more Xiao Yunzhou remembered, the more terrified he became.

In recent years, Jing Country has faced crises from neighboring countries and plague, but never had they encountered an assassin from the previous dynasty!
