Cao Jin had been secretly observing Zhao Zheng's expression.
Cao Jin heaved a sigh of relief when he saw a smile on Zhao Zheng's face.
The fatuous ruler was still the same fatuous ruler!
He was still a lecher!
Since the fatuous ruler was happy, Cao Jin felt that he could let go of the fact that he did not go to the execution ground.
"Emperor, this woman is Mr. Li's adopted daughter. She has always admired Emperor and hopes that Emperor can take her into the harem. It's cold in winter, so it's good that Emperor has someone to warm his feet!”
Cao Jin said with a flattering smile.
"Good!"
Zhao Zheng also smiled, looking very happy."Minister Li is very thoughtful. Since she is Minister Li's daughter, I will grant Wan 'er the title of Second Grade Beauty and let her stay in the Imperial Fragrance Garden.”
In this novel world, the concubines in the harem were also divided into levels.
The first grade is the queen and the imperial concubine.
The other concubines were from the first grade.
For example, Zhaorong was one level lower than the concubines, from the second grade.
Usually, only First Rank concubines could live in their own palaces.
Imperial Fragrance Garden was a small courtyard, but it was not a low-grade one.
According to the normal rules, a new woman entering the palace had to start from a beautiful woman and go through the ranks of a lady, a servant, a noble, and a talented person before she could reach Zhaorong.
Zhao Zheng had conferred Shangguan Wan 'er the title of Zhaorong as soon as he came up, seeming to attach great importance to her.
Cao Jin was happy to see the Emperor happy.
"Aren't you going to thank me?"
"ChenQie kowtows and thanks the Emperor!"
"Yes." Zhao Zheng nodded and said,"Li Zhaorong, leave first. Men, bring Li Zhaorong to the Imperial Fragrance Garden."”
After Shangguan Wan 'er left, Zhao Zheng looked at Cao Jin.
"Cao Jin."
"This old servant is here!" Cao Jin quickly agreed.
"You have contributed to the beauty. Originally, I should reward you well.”
Without waiting for Cao Jin to be happy, Zhao Zheng said indifferently,"However, you were disloyal to me and even dared to disobey my orders. You really have guts!”
Towards the end, Zhao Zheng's tone was very strict.
Hearing this, Cao Jin was stunned.
He had thought that this matter had already been resolved, but he did not expect that the fatuous ruler would still not let him off.
Ever since he had known the fatuous ruler, he had never seen the fatuous ruler so angry at him and say such harsh words.
Moreover, from what Zhao Zheng said, he was planning to cripple him?
" Emperor, I've been wronged, Emperor…This old servant knows my mistake, please give this old servant another chance…"
"I don't need half-hearted dog slaves!”
Zhao Zheng said coldly. Then, he threw the cup in his hand at Cao Jin.
Cao Jin did not dodge.
With his strength, he could definitely dodge it.
However, he did not dodge on purpose to avenge Zhao Zheng.
Besides, it was just a cup. With his current martial arts, it could not hurt him at all.
呯!
The cup smashed into Cao Jin's forehead and shattered.
Just as Cao Jin was about to defend himself, something unexpected happened.
Suddenly.
Four to five people rushed in from the doors and windows of the royal study and surrounded Cao Jin.
Each of them was holding a weapon in their hands.
The leader was Gu Dayou.
"Cao Jin, as a servant of the Emperor, you actually dare to be disloyal to the Emperor. You've simply eaten the guts of a bear or a leopard. Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of the Emperor.”
Cao Jin was stunned for a moment. He looked at the golden machete in Gu Dayou's hand and instantly understood what was going on.
The fatuous ruler was determined to kill him today!
Otherwise, he wouldn't have let Gu Dayou ambush them here.
"Emperor, this old servant has served you for so many years. Even if I don't have any merit, I have worked hard! Do you really want to kill this old servant?"
Cao Jin looked at Zhao Zheng, who was standing still, and made a final struggle.
"Seeing that you are also an old man by my side, if you cripple your own martial arts, I can spare your life and let you guard the Imperial Tombs.”
Zhao Zheng, this guy, was really bad. He was incomparably thick and black.
It was clearly impossible for him to let Cao Jin off, yet he still dug a hole like this.
If Cao Jin crippled his own martial arts, he would definitely die without knowing how.
Hearing Zhao Zheng's words, how could Cao Jin, who had a pitifully low level of loyalty, fall for it?
"Emperor, please forgive this old servant for being disrespectful…"
As soon as Cao Jin finished speaking, he actually chose to strike first. Like a ghost, he took a step forward and rushed towards Zhao Zheng.
It was so fast that even Gu Dayou couldn't stop it in time.
" How dare you!!"
Gu Dayou was shocked.
He did not expect Cao Jin to be so bold as to attack the Emperor!
However, Zhao Zheng was not afraid at all. He continued to sit on the dragon throne unhurriedly. He had the bearing of a king who would not change his expression even if Mount Tai collapsed in front of him.
Seeing this, Cao Jin felt uneasy.
As expected.
In the next moment.
A figure rushed out from the screen behind Zhao Zheng. He was faster than Cao Jin and arrived before Zhao Zheng. At the same time, he struck out with his palm.
When Cao Jin saw who it was, his expression changed. He couldn't dodge in time, so he hurriedly followed up with a palm strike.
呯!
There was a loud bang.
The two experts from the imperial court exchanged a palm strike and actually emitted a strong gale.
Zhao Zheng seemed to feel the entire royal study shaking.
The person who suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Zheng was naturally the number one expert in the palace, Zhao Zheng's number one lackey, Feng Zhong, Steward Feng!
When Cao Jin attacked just now, Zhao Zheng did not dodge or panic. It was precisely because Feng Zhong was there that he had the confidence.
————————————————————————————
He had something to do during the day.
