A five-year-old goddess, raised to become an emperor for all time through a bronze mirror.

Chapter 6 Keep a close eye on them...

"How could you be so mean, Jian Niannian! Your mother is dead, your father doesn't care about you, and you're staying at Tongtong's house now, and you still push her?"

These hurtful words, like sharp knives, poured from Su Xiao's mouth, ruthlessly piercing Niannian's heart.

Niannian pursed her lips tightly, her stubborn little eyes glaring fiercely at Fu Tong: "I pushed her because she bullied me first, and also, give me back my book!"

Su Xiao's lips curled into a smug smile. Holding Nian Nian's book in her hand, she said provocatively:

"What if I don't give it?"

A hint of disappointment and helplessness flashed in Niannian's eyes. She lowered her head and clutched the hem of her clothes tightly with her small hands.

Her grandfather had originally transferred her to this school hoping that Fu Tong would take good care of her. However, Fu Tong's so-called "care" turned into endless bullying and humiliation.

In the past, when faced with such bullying, Niannian always chose to silently endure it, daring not to resist in the slightest.

But at this moment, the words of Ai-gege suddenly came to mind: you can't tolerate being bullied anymore!

So she clenched her little fists, took a deep breath, and angrily raised her head, emphasizing again, "I'll say it again, give me back my book!"

"Smack!" With a crisp sound, Su Xiao mercilessly slammed the book onto Nian Nian's delicate little face, gritting her teeth as she said:

"I'll give it back to you now, but if you dare to bully Tongtong again, hmph, your fate will be very terrible!"

Just then, Fu Tong reached out her small hand and tightly grasped Su Xiao's arm, whispering, "Okay, okay, class is about to start, let's hurry back!"

"Hmm... Tongtong, you absolutely can't be so soft-hearted in the future!" After saying that, Su Xiao glared fiercely at Niannian, then turned away.

However, Nian Nian covered her little nose, which was red from being hit, and shouted in a cute but fierce voice, "Don't go!"

"What do you want to do?" Before Su Xiao could finish speaking, she turned her head and saw Niannian pounce on her like a fierce little tiger.

Niannian used a move called "Crow Takes Flight," instantly pinning Su Xiao beneath her. Her tiny fists rained down on Su Xiao's body, while she kept muttering:

"You dare talk about my mom, you dare talk about my dad! You dare bully me without even asking what happened..."

Seeing this, Fu Tong, who was standing nearby, quickly tried to step forward and pull Nian Nian away.

Unexpectedly, Nian Nian suddenly opened her little mouth and bit Fu Tong hard, making a "woof..." sound.

"Ah!!! Niannian has gone mad, she's turned into a mad dog!" Fu Tong covered her bitten hand and sat on the ground, whimpering.

The others nearby didn't dare to approach, fearing they would be bitten.

Niannian spat a few times in a very cute way, as if she had just bitten something unclean. "Next time you bully me, it won't be as simple as just getting bitten!"

After saying that, she clenched her fist and punched Su Xiao, who was beneath her, again.

Su Xiao also came to her senses at this time and started fighting with Niannian... After the teacher came over and separated the two, both of them had bruises on their faces.

They looked rather disheveled, their hair a mess, and their clothes torn in several places. Because of this, their parents were all called in…

Twenty minutes later, Grandpa Fu rushed over, followed by Wen Wan. He noticed that Niannian's little nose was frighteningly red, and there was a bruise around her right eye.

Then I looked at Su Xiao next to me. She wasn't in much better shape either. With messy hair and dark circles under her eyes, she looked like a walking panda!

"Niannian, does it hurt?" Old Master Fu squatted down and asked with concern.

Before Niannian could speak, Fu Tong complained, "Grandpa, Niannian not only hit people, but she also bit me!" As she spoke, she held her hand up to Grandpa Fu's face.

The bright red teeth marks on her fair wrists were quite noticeable.

!!!

what happened! ?

Grandpa Fu was shocked. He felt that the well-behaved and sensible Niannian had changed. Not only would she bite people, but she would also fight!

In the cold palace of Guangling Kingdom...

Sunlight, dappled and filtered through the cracks in the window frames, spilled into every corner of the dilapidated palace;

The air was thick with the musty smell of decay and dust, so desolate it sent chills down one's spine.

On the bed, Pei Yunjing's figure was as thin as paper, his face was so pale that it was devoid of any color, his eyes were tightly closed, and his lips trembled slightly, like a candle flame flickering in the wind.

Pei Yunjing felt like a leaf being blown by the wind, light and airy, as if a pair of hands were secretly supporting him, making him float in mid-air.

With great effort, I lifted my heavy eyelids, and a blurry figure appeared before my eyes.

As his vision gradually cleared, he finally saw clearly that the person guarding the bedside was none other than his mother, Consort De.

"Mother, what brings you here?" Pei Yunjing opened her chapped lips with difficulty, her voice weak and hoarse, like a leaf falling in the wind.

He tried to sit up, but his body felt limp and weak, as if all his strength had been removed.

Consort De, who was dozing off, suddenly opened her eyes upon hearing Pei Yunjing's voice.

She quickly reached out to feel Pei Yunjing's forehead; thankfully, the burning fever had subsided. She breathed a sigh of relief and said softly:

"Jing'er, your mother is here to take you home. Luckily, we made it in time."

As she spoke, she held Pei Yunjing's hand tightly, pressing her cheek against the back of his hand, her eyes filled with tenderness and affection. Tears involuntarily slid down her cheeks, dripping onto Pei Yunjing's hand, wetting it.

Pei Yunjing's eyes were still filled with confusion. He asked uncertainly, "Mother, did Father send you?"

Consort De nodded, her tone firm: "Yes, Jing'er, it was the Emperor's grace."

Originally, she had no chance to enter the Cold Palace and bring Pei Yunjing out.

Just two days ago, news of her father Bai Zhong's triumphant return from the campaign against Ryukyu reached the palace, and Emperor Pei Chuan was finally relieved and agreed to let Pei Yun Jing leave the Cold Palace.

Upon hearing this news, Consort De was overjoyed and rushed over to bring Pei Yunjing back to her side. Unexpectedly, upon arriving at the Cold Palace, she witnessed an assassin's attack.

Pei Yunjing's body trembled, and his voice was weak: "Mother, I'm so cold..."

He knew in his heart that his father was always strict in his rewards and punishments, and would never easily change his mind unless there was a major event. However, at this moment, he was too weak to delve into the matter and only wanted to fall into a deep sleep.

Consort De was extremely anxious and hurriedly replied, "Jing'er, come back to the palace with your mother." After saying this, she gave a hurried order to the palace maid beside her, and they set off for the palace immediately.

At this moment, Pei Yunjing's gaze fell on the phoenix bronze mirror. He raised his hand with difficulty and pointed at the mirror:

"Mother, I wish to bring this mirror back to the palace..." He didn't know why he had such a strong desire, but the emotion was becoming increasingly difficult to suppress.

Consort De glanced at him sideways, pondered for a moment, and then nodded in agreement: "As you wish, take him back."

Soon after, Consort De and Pei Yunjing embarked on their journey back to the palace. Behind them, six eunuchs laboriously carried the phoenix bronze mirror, slowly leaving the Cold Palace.

In a secluded corner outside the Cold Palace, Consort Wan stared at Consort De's receding figure with icy eyes and deep resentment, wishing she could tear a piece of flesh from her body.

On their way back to the palace, Consort De and her entourage were spotted by Pei Nanxing, who immediately noticed the familiar bronze mirror in the group.

Pei Nanxing was slightly taken aback, then waved to summon a guard: "What is the reason for this?"

The guard bowed and replied, "Your Highness, this is the Sixth Prince, Pei Yunjing, whom Consort De brought back from the Cold Palace."

Pei Nanxing narrowed his eyes, a cold glint flashing within them: "Send men to keep a close watch on them, especially that bronze mirror. Report any unusual activity to me immediately!"

Although the guards didn't understand why the prince was so interested in a mirror, they couldn't disobey his orders and had no choice but to comply.

"Yes, Your Highness." (My head is so itchy, my bangs are about to grow out.)
