Chapter 1202: Duifang Palace
“Why?” She was puzzled! His elder brother usually gambled and was lustful. Apart from these, he doesn’t know how to do other things!
Eunuch Fu said again: “Xiao Guiren, do you know what the punishment for the crime of treason is?”
Xiao Xiuyu replied dumbly: “Beheading?”
Eunuch Fu shook his head. Xiao Xiuyu said again: “Punishing the nine clans?”
Only then did Eunuch Fu nod his head with a meaningful expression on his face.
And only then did Xiao Xiuyu come to her senses. Her face turned pale as snow: “You mean, you mean my brother committed the crime of treason?”
Seeing Eunuch Fu nodding, Xiao Xiuyu immediately exclaimed in shock: “Impossible, how is this possible? My elder brother wouldn’t do such a thing.”
Chu Yan snorted coldly: “Drag her out.”
He didn’t want to hear this kind of voice for a moment, it was too noisy.
Eunuch Fu raised his hand, and immediately a guard stepped forward and forcibly dragged Xiao Xiuyu out.
Xiao Xiuyu’s shouting voice gradually disappeared into his ears.
Bai Zhi asked: “She doesn’t look like she knows the inside story. Is she going to be punished?”
Chu Yan shook his head: “I hate the crime of continuous punishment the most, but it won’t be so easy to let it go. After all, you have to pay some price. As for her brother and father, if you dare to do it, you must dare to face the consequences.”

Duifang Palace
After hearing the palace maid’s reply, Zhuo Xi’er stood up happily, and asked: “Really?”
The palace maid nodded: “This servant saw it with her own eyes. Xiao Guiren was dragged out of the imperial study room. This servant inquired about it. It was the order from the emperor himself. Miss, the emperor has returned.”
Zhuo Xi’er got up immediately, raised her legs, and was about to go out. But before reaching the door, she turned back again, and looked left and right in the mirror: “Xiao Lian, do my clothes look good today? ”
The palace maid hurriedly nodded: “Miss looks good. She looks good in anything she wears.” Xiao Lian thought to herself, everyone said that the emperor was ambushed outside and hurt his eyes, and now he was blind. No matter how she dresses up well, what’s the sense?
But she only dared to think not to say it, after all, a lady was a lady, and a servant was a servant.
Zhuo Xi’er changed her clothes again, wiped off the powder on her face, and took off a few accessories from her head, then she nodded in satisfaction: “The emperor likes simplicity and elegance, so I can’t go wrong with my appearance.”
Today, she also especially changed the gorgeous peach-red gauze skirt into a light pink dark pattern silk skirt, and she wore a tender blue three-fold girdle around her waist. Her waist was so full that she couldn’t grasp it, but she looked extraordinarily tall and upright.
With her appearance and figure, how many young masters and talents who have seen her, stared at her? Ever since she reached her rightful age, the threshold of the Zhuo Family Mansion has been passed through by matchmakers.
So she has always been very confident that the emperor always treats her differently from others.
Zhuo Xi’er took her palace maid to the imperial study, but on the way, she met two beautifully dressed concubines.
“Hey – isn’t this Liang Guiren and Ying Guiren?”
Women in the harem were very good at distinguishing between ranks, at least for now.
All the women who are stuffed into the harem were of the same rank, Guiren (nobility).
Without exception.
Everyone knows in their hearts that if they want to be an exception, they must be favored by the emperor. Even if they were only favored by the emperor once, the rank would be different.
Unfortunately, no one has had such an opportunity yet.
When Liang Guiren and Ying Guiren saw Zhuo Xi’er, their eyes turned red as if they had met an enemy, “I don’t know who it is, so she is the young lady of the Zhuo family.” Liang Guiren greeted her politely, but her eyes were vicious. She looked her from head to foot, while gritting her teeth so hard.
