" Yes, yes, Sister Zaixue..."

Zai Yan also knew that Zai Xue and Cixi had probably completely broken off in their hearts. Although the two of them did not say it out loud, Zai Yan was certain that neither Zai Xue nor Cixi would hold back in the future. However, he could take this opportunity to prepare a plan so that Cixi would not deal with him. With this thought in mind, Zai Yan quickly pretended to be a cute little boy and ran into Zai Xue's arms.

"Yes, Little Zaiyan, I haven't seen you for a few days and you've lost weight again. Did anyone bully you?" As she spoke, Zai Xue caressed Zai Yan's chubby little face lovingly. Zai Xue thought that Zai Yan definitely wouldn't be able to eat or wear warm clothes at Cixi's place. Therefore, even if Zai Yan didn't lose weight and had gained a few pounds, in her eyes, Zai Yan had still lost weight. He was clearly only a four-year-old child, but he had to suffer so much. Thinking of this, Zai Xue looked at Cixi with a cold killing intent in her eyes.

" Ah, Zaixue, I'm sorry to hear that." Cixi naturally understood Zaixue's dissatisfaction with her, but she wasn't nervous at all. She slowly put down the blue and white porcelain teacup in her hand and raised her finger that was inlaid with all kinds of precious stones. Then, she frowned and said,

" What are you saying, Empress Dowager? His Majesty is still young and grew up with Zai Yan. Naturally, he cares about this kid." Seeing Cixi's increasingly gloomy expression, the Gong Prince felt that something was wrong. Although the conflict between Zai Xue and Cixi was beneficial to her, the gap between Cixi and Zai Xue was too big. Although Zai Xue was the nominal emperor of the Qing Dynasty, the power was now in Cixi's hands. Therefore, the Gong Prince could only put in a good word for her.

"Oh, really?"

The corners of Cixi's mouth curled up slightly. She smiled coldly, shook her head, and stopped talking.

"Little Zai Yan, are you thirsty? " Come and have some tea." Zai Xue did not pay attention to the conversation between Cixi and the Gong Prince. Instead, she gently brought the tea on her table to Zai Yan's side and lowered her head to ask Zai Yan gently,

" Mm, thank you, Sister Zaixue." Zai Yan did not reject Zai Xue's gentleness. He took the teacup from Zai Xue's hands and drank it without tasting the tea. After all, he and Zai Xue had known each other since they were young, and Zai Xue had always doted on this younger brother of his. Drowned. Sometimes, even an adult like Hua Yan could not help but sigh at how sorry he was to the world if he did not want this girl.

" Yes, it's fine. I've watched you grow up since you were young. You've suffered, and I feel bad too." She smiled gently and raised her hand gently to stroke Zai Yan's little head very gently. Because she had a mother like Cixi when she was young, Zai Xue used to not have enough to eat or wear warm clothes in the palace. She was also bullied by others in the palace all day long. It was only after she grew up and inherited the throne that Cixi still held the power of the court. At most, she was just a puppet emperor. All the ministers and princes in the imperial court were staring at her like tigers eyeing their prey. Zai Xue also understood that in the entire Forbidden City, only Zai Yan was truly good to her and cared about her.

Zai Xue still remembered the first day she met Zai Yan. It was Prince Chun's birthday three years ago. At that time, she had just succeeded to the throne. She had to rope in Prince Chun, who held real power. So, Zai Xue went to Prince Chun's residence to congratulate him. During that period, because the banquet was too boring, she secretly avoided the guards and palace maids and came to the back garden of Prince Chun's residence. At that time, the one-year-old little Zai Yan was sitting quietly in the back garden alone. At that moment, Zai Xue felt that this little fellow was just like her, alone. From then on, Zai Xue had doted on Zai Yan to the extreme. Of course, Zai Yan did not know this. The heavens had taken pity on him. At that time, he had been like that purely because that bastard system of his was too much of a scam. Who knew that in Zai Xue's eyes, he would become lonely?

" Little Zai Yan must be hungry now. Someone, bring some pastries for the morning." Zai Xue looked at Zai Yan and smiled. Then, she shouted at the eunuch beside her. Although Zai Xue was only the Emperor of Tongzhi who did not have any real power, she was still the nominal ruler of the Qing Dynasty. Therefore, she still had the right to order the eunuchs in the palace. After thousands of years of feudal monarchism, the status of eunuchs was usually extremely low. Even Li Lianying, who was beside Cixi, did not dare to disobey Zaixue's orders.

Plate after plate of exquisite pastries were brought out from the room. There were many pastries that even Zai Yan did not know the names of. Zai Yan could not help but be secretly shocked when he saw this. As expected of the royal family of the foodie empire, there were so many types of pastries. Meanwhile, Zai Xue, the Gong Prince, and Cixi, who were present, looked at the pastries calmly and did not show any surprise.

" Zai Yan, this is a famous dish in Beijing. It's called Donkey Rolls. It's made from high-quality glutinous rice and mung bean flour. Try it. Hey, you, bring the Donkey Rolls over." Zai Xue hugged Zai Yan with both hands and pointed at a eunuch who was holding a plate of Donkey Rolls with his head lowered. She asked him to bring the pastries to her side.

"Tsk,"

The eunuch who was holding the "rolling donkey" plate lowered his head deeply, as if he was afraid that others would see through his true appearance. His voice was also like a duck's voice that could imitate a eunuch. However, at this moment, whether it was Cixi, Zaixue, or the Gong Prince, they did not see the poor acting skills of this "eunuch". Perhaps in their eyes, a eunuch was just a eunuch. Unless it was someone like Li Lianying, they would not even look at him.

Zai Yan, who was lying quietly in Zai Xue's embrace, frowned unconsciously. This eunuch…seemed to be a problem. Zai Yan used his age and height to lower his head slightly to look at the " eunuch " who seemed to be a problem. Suddenly, Zai Yan realized that this " eunuch " wasn't a eunuch. Under the eunuch's hat, there was a dark-skinned fierce man. It was no wonder that he had to lower his head. Usually, eunuchs who had been castrated would not be able to change the fact that they looked like men after losing their manhood. When the white liquid was no longer secreted, the eunuch's face would usually turn very pale and bloodless, just like a dead person. This was one of the reasons why the people usually called eunuchs "dead eunuchs".

"Not good, this person is here to assassinate you. Sister Zaixue is in danger."

Zai Yan instantly understood what was going on. This person was probably here to assassinate the Emperor of Tongzhi, Zai Xue. Zai Yan looked at his slightly puffed up sleeves. That was probably where this burly "eunuch" hid his dagger.

Zai Yan was secretly anxious, but he did not dare to shout out loud. He was afraid that this burly man would directly fight to the death. If that happened, the situation would probably be even worse. However, Zai Yan was only an ordinary four-year-old child. If Zhang Xun was here, it would be fine. Zai Yan believed that with her skills, this burly man would probably be beaten down before he could get close. However, the problem was that she was not by his side.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, Zai Yan heard a crisp ringing sound in his head.
