Your Majesty, don't be too self-deprecating!

  Baili Xinghong listened to her footsteps fading away, closed the door and returned to the bedroom. A fragrance unique to women wafted into his nostrils, and the bed was also filled with that person's scent. Strangely, he didn't feel disgusted, stood by the bed for a moment, then lay down.

  A good night's sleep.

  "Your Excellency, it's been found! It's been found!" A small guard rushed forward to report.

  "Where is he?" The captain of the guard had already been furious for quite some time! After searching for so long, it was impossible not to be annoyed.

  "It was at Jingren Palace, I went out to pay respects!" The little guard wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied quickly.

  "Hmph!" With a cold snort, he led the servants away.

  Su Jinping also pretended to be in a half-dreaming and half-waking state, with a sorrowful expression on her face, holding the large broom at the door, waiting for them. The captain of the guards saw Su Jinping's painful expression and felt a lot of sympathy in his heart. Alas, it was also true that this late at night wasn't supposed to be time for sleep? But being summoned by the emperor to sweep the floor, this little palace maid didn't have an easy life either! This was what happened when one offended the emperor!

  Thinking about it, he couldn't bear to blame her anymore, so he took her to the imperial study.

  Su Jinping walked behind the captain of the guard with a sullen face, gritting her teeth and silently cursing Huangfu Huachen's ancestors for eighteen generations! She seriously suspected that in her previous life she had wronged that dog emperor, so this life he was always tormenting her!

  It turns out that she might be the heartless Li Jia of history, and Huangfu Huichan is the Du Shiniang who jumped into the lake with resentment! That's why they clashed. Thinking about it this way, I felt inexplicably delighted, it seems she still has a lot of Ah Q spirit!

  From a distance, she saw the brightly lit imperial study, and the flames of anger in her heart grew even more intense! She was so angry that she wanted to rush in and give that dog emperor a good beating! Thinking that she wouldn't wait for an invitation, she grabbed a broom and charged inside with a loud "whoosh"!

  "Halt!" The people below hastened forward wanting to stop her, but she cleverly dodged them and finally appeared calmly in the great hall!

  As soon as she entered the palace, a loud shout came: "Your Majesty, why must I come out to sweep the floor at this late hour?"

  The person with their head lowered, reviewing the memorial, had a faint smile at the corner of their icy lips, and a hint of amusement flashed in their dark purple eyes. They raised their head to look at her disheveled appearance, and spoke in a very unpleasant tone: "When did I ever ask you to sweep the floor, and need your consent for that?"

  He finally understood where his uncomfortable feeling came from, perhaps it was because he couldn't bear to see this woman being so pleased with herself and having a good time with Baili Xiongzhong, wasn't that too easy for her?! So he just wanted to ruin their good thing! Thinking about it, he nodded in agreement in his heart, yes, it should be this reason!

  "Your Majesty, when I was sweeping in the Jingren Palace, there were people who took turns on duty. I swept during the day and others swept at night. But why do I have to sweep both day and night now?" She gritted her teeth in anger, damn it, why did everyone else get to transmigrate as a princess, empress, or noble lady, but she had to be unlucky enough to become a palace maid who offended the emperor and got demoted, and still had to sweep floors at midnight? This was so unfair!

  "Did you sweep the floor yesterday?" asked in a cold tone.

  This question shut Su Jinping up! Yes, yesterday morning was swept by Huangfu Yi, and in the afternoon, Huang Guifei came to find her. It seemed that she really didn't work yesterday! So that arrogant momentum instantly weakened, but: "Your Majesty, with so many people in this palace, you don't care about anyone else, why do you only care about me?" There are many lazy ones, just finding trouble for her alone!

  "I'm concerned about you, shouldn't it be an honor for you?" The icy voice opened with a cold smile, the dark purple eyes tracing a hint of cruelty. You damned woman, do you think only you can use the word "honor"?

  "Your Majesty, this is where you are wrong. As the Emperor of a nation, you should naturally have the heart to care for the world. How can you focus your attention on a small palace maid like me? You will waste so much energy and miss out on many important things! How can you face the people of the world and live up to the expectations of the previous emperor?" Su Jinping even took on the role of a teacher, lecturing the Emperor with a heavy heart.

  The emperor listened to her and immediately burst into a violent cough, the blue veins on his forehead slowly bulging out. It was clear that she had been lazy yesterday and hadn't done any work, yet it became Emperor Huangfu's fault for not being considerate of the people and not living up to the expectations of the previous emperor? What else couldn't this woman drag him into?!

  "Su Jinping, you..." The tone was clearly angry.

  "Never mind, Your Majesty. It's not a big deal, you don't have to be too hard on yourself. Just make amends and improve from now on, I'll take care of you in place of the late emperor!" The delicate face of the woman was full of sincerity.

  As soon as this was said, Huangfu Huaihan's face instantly turned red with anger. Humiliation?! She still wants to replace the emperor and watch him?! The anger in her heart was about to erupt, but she saw that woman carrying a broom and walking out: "Your Majesty, I'm leaving!"

  He was choked with rage, almost spitting out a mouthful of blood! "Su Jinping, you stand still for me!"

  A loud shout burst out.

  With her back to him, the woman had a sly smile on her face, as if she was gloating over her clever plan! She knew she had taken advantage of him, and he wouldn't let it go easily. But that was exactly what she wanted - just kidding! Let her sweep the floor alone? He'd finish his work later and then peacefully go back to sleep? Dream on! No one would be sleeping tonight!

  Thinking of it, she turned her head and looked at him with a blush: "Your Majesty, why do you call my name so deeply? Are you going to thank me? Ah, no need, no need! These are all things that a slave like me should do! You just order the historian to write in the history book that there was once a time when Your Majesty fell into trouble and put your eyes on a small palace maid for many days. Fortunately, Su Jinping was not afraid of death, ventured to remonstrate, and finally scolded you awake! From then on, Your Majesty worked hard to govern the country, loved the country and the people, and finally became a wise ruler!"

  The woman's braid is quite stylish!

  The deputy historian who was meticulously recording the emperor's life on the side couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth, and a black line also appeared on his forehead. This woman seems to be quite suitable for being a historian too!

  The emperor's face turned cold and his eyes blazed with anger as he glared at the shameless woman for a long time, before squeezing out a sentence from between his teeth: "Su Jinping, it's a pity you didn't write a scandalous history!"
