Chapter 40: When the Grand Eunuch becomes the Consort's man, double happiness arrives!

After explaining everything, Eunuch Wei left.

Xiao Shisan returned to his main room, feeling uneasy. After all, Liu Jin would come to kill him that night.

However, if he were to kill Liu Jin, the reward would be quite substantial, as he would become the head of the Western Depot!

Tonight, we must succeed! We absolutely cannot fail!!

If I succeed, I will become the head of the Western Depot, and then I will be able to do whatever I want in the palace.

After sitting on the couch for a while, Xiao Shisan suddenly saw Qi Xiangjun, dressed in a white dress embroidered with a Tai Chi pattern, walk in.

He stood in his room, looking around.

"Um?"

Xiao Shisan stood up: "Sister Daogu, why didn't you knock before entering my room?"

"Damn, just because you're good-looking and have a good figure, you can do whatever you want?" Xiao Shisan thought to himself, his eyes fixed on her chest peeking out from under her clothes.

"You left the door open again!"

Qi Xiangjun looked over and said, "By the way, I wanted to ask you, do you know our Abbess, Fairy Fuchen?"

Xiao Shisan shook his head: "I don't know her. I was wondering why she asked you to protect me."

Qi Xiangjun, stunningly beautiful and aloof, nodded with a suspicious expression: "Oh!"

Then, she walked out gracefully!

Only a faint fragrance remained in the room.

Xiao Shisan: "..."

All day long, Xiao Shisan took advantage of the free time to sit cross-legged on the couch and study the "Huang Ting Jing". He even learned some palm techniques. Although the power was not strong for the time being, it was better than not learning anything at all.

As the sun set, Xiao Shisan yawned wearily, then leaned back on the couch, covered his face with books, and fell fast asleep.

Time passed, I don't know how much.

In a hazy state!

Suddenly, Qi Xiangjun let out a sharp rebuke.

"Liu Jin, you've finally arrived! Today is your death day!!"

Swish!

Startled awake, Xiao Shisan opened his eyes abruptly, quickly removed the book from his face, and ran outside.

When I arrived at the door, I saw that it was already moonlit night outside.

Meanwhile, Liu Jin, dressed as a eunuch, was engaged in a fierce fight with Eunuch Wei and Qi Xiangjun in the courtyard.

boom!

"puff!"

Eunuch Wei was struck in the chest, coughed up blood, and staggered back, clutching his chest, looking in this direction:

"Xiao Shisan, quickly shoot him with a hidden dart!!"

"good!"

Xiao Shisan raised his arm, intending to shoot Liu Jin.

However, Liu Jin was caught in a whirlwind of activity with Qi Xiangjun, who was clashing in a white dress, and couldn't bring himself to strike.

He was afraid of shooting Qi Xiangjun.

"Hurry up!!"

Eunuch Wei urged him on.

Xiao Shisan said urgently, "Eunuch Wei, I'm afraid I'll shoot the wrong person!"

Snapped!

At this moment, Qi Xiangjun struck Liu Jin's palm with her own, and the two exchanged blows.

Liu Jin's hat was instantly blown off by the strong wind, his face contorted in pain as he glared at Qi Xiangjun, who was palming against him: "Who are you? Why are you protecting Xiao Shisan?"

Qi Xiangjun's beautiful black hair and white dress fluttered wildly under the moonlight, making her look like a fairy.

"Liu Jin, you wrongfully murdered more than twenty members of my Qi family. Today, I will kill you to avenge them!"

Liu Jin sneered upon hearing this.

"The Qi family?"

"So, you're from Minister Qi's family!"

"Hmph, you think you can kill me just because you've learned a few skills? You're dreaming... I'll deal with you first, then I'll kill Xiao Shisan—"

Liu Jin was speaking.

Whoosh whoosh!

Taking advantage of the moment, Xiao Shisan pulled the thin thread on his wrist, and in an instant, a volley of hidden arrows shot out.

Pfft, pfft, pfft!

A barrage of hidden arrows struck Liu Jin.

"you!!"

Liu Jin trembled violently, his old face contorted as he looked at Xiao Shisan: "You wicked thing, you actually..."

Xiao Shisan smiled smugly: "Liu Jin, didn't expect this, did you? We were prepared!"

Before Liu Jin could speak...

boom!

Qi Xiangjun's beautiful eyes flashed with a fierce light, and she turned her other hand into a palm, aiming a blow at Liu Jin's chest.

"ah!!!"

Liu Jin, who was already hit by a hidden weapon, flew backward and crashed heavily to the ground with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"Well…"

Blood trickled from the corner of Liu Jin's mouth as he growled, "Who? Who betrayed me? Who?!"

Xiao Shisan ignored him and instead rushed forward to support Eunuch Wei, who had just vomited blood: "Eunuch Wei, are you alright?"

Seeing Xiao Shisan's worried expression.

At first, Eunuch Wei was quite moved.

Then Xiao Shisan added, "Eunuch Wei, you can't die! You haven't given me the antidote for the Ten-Day Death Powder yet."

Eunuch Wei: "..."

Eunuch Wei waved his hand, then clutched his chest and stepped forward with a sinister smile: "Liu Jin, I'll let you die knowing why. Hmph, your trusted confidants have long been bribed by us and Cao Zhengchun. We know everything about your whereabouts!"

"Because of your arrogance and overbearing attitude, not only Cao Zhengchun, but also the Left Chancellor and Empress Dowager Dou want to get rid of you!!"

"In the battle just now, I found that your skills have improved a lot. Hmph, if it weren't for Xiao Shisan's hidden arrow, Qi Xiangjun and I would really not be your match."

Lying on the ground, with his life hanging by a thread, Liu Jin paused for a moment, then looked up and laughed.

"Hahahaha..."

"I, Liu Jin, have served the court for so many years, and yet I've come to this end?"

"My adopted son, Liu Yuhe, was killed by Xiao Shisan, and I am unable to avenge him!"

"Originally, I had a lot of internal energy, and I planned to pass it on to my adopted son, Liu Yuhe, when I got old and didn't have much time left. But I never expected that Liu Yuhe would pass away before me..."

"After fighting Cao Zhengchun for so many years, I have finally lost!"

Liu Jin was overcome with grief and tears streamed down his face.

Xiao Shisan sneered: "Don't blame me! Who told Liu Yuhe to bully others with his power, and later even went so far as to try to poison the Empress!!"

moment!

Liu Jin, tears streaming down his face, looked in this direction.

Snapped!

He slammed his palm on the ground, suddenly stood up, and rushed towards Xiao Shisan with lightning speed.

It was so fast that there was no chance for anyone to react!

"careful!!"

Both Eunuch Wei and Lady Qi shouted in unison.

In an instant!

Liu Jin, who had leaped to this point, suddenly grasped Xiao Shisan's hands, then placed his palms against Xiao Shisan's palms...

Instantly, Xiao Shisan felt a warm current spread from his palms throughout his body, making him extremely uncomfortable. He couldn't help but shout, "Liu Jin, what do you want to do?!"

"stop!"

Qi Xiangjun over there wanted to come over.

But Eunuch Wei blocked his way, saying, "It's alright, Liu Jin is passing on his skills—"

Transmission of skills?

Xiao Shisan felt burning hot all over. He endured the discomfort and looked at Liu Jin in front of him. He noticed that Liu Jin had his eyes closed, and the wrinkles on his face had become more pronounced. His already gray hair had turned even whiter...

Under the moonlight, Liu Jin's white hair was wildly flying, his face was pale, and he looked quite eerie!

After a while.

Pfft!

Liu Jin slumped to the ground, his voice hoarse: "In that case... I can be considered to have a successor."

Xiao Shisan was startled. His body felt more comfortable than ever before, and his strength seemed to be many times greater than before.

At this moment, Liu Jin spoke listlessly.

"Xiao Shisan, I only have... only a few breaths left."

"I suddenly understand many things."

"You killed me, which is a meritorious deed and you will certainly be rewarded. However, I hope that in the future, you won't be as arrogant as I was... Peace is a blessing!"

"I may be bad, but Cao Zhengchun isn't any better."

"I've given you all the internal energy I've accumulated over fifty years. In the future, will you be able to use my power to kill Cao Zhengchun?"

"Of course, I'm no longer in a position to make demands of you; this is more of a request..."

Xiao Shisan: "..."

More than fifty years of skill?

This is a huge profit!

Before Xiao Shisan could speak, Eunuch Wei nodded at him: "A dying man's words are often good!"

"OK!"

Xiao Shisan agreed, "As long as Cao Zhengchun dares to harm me, I will kill him in the future!"

Liu Jin looked up, his face full of wrinkles, and laughed a few times: "He will definitely do something bad to you, he definitely will... Hahahaha..."

suddenly!

Liu Jin laughed for a while, then stared wide-eyed at Xiao Shisan, scrutinizing him closely: "You...you really look alike..."

Do I really resemble? Who do I resemble?

As Xiao Shisan wondered what was going on, he saw Liu Jin's head droop limply before he could finish speaking, and he fell silent...

Qi Xiangjun stared at Liu Jin's body, gritted her teeth in hatred, clutched her chest, and walked towards the side room where Liu Jin lived, seemingly suffering from internal injuries.

"Respectfully bidding farewell to Governor Liu!!"

Eunuch Wei bowed deeply to Liu Jin.

Then, after gazing at Liu Jin's body for a long time, he sighed and stepped forward to carry Liu Jin on his back.

"Xiao Shisan, hurry to Chuxiu Palace. Before Liu Jin arrived, Steward Wu from Chuxiu Palace came and said you need to go to Chuxiu Palace to see the Imperial Noble Consort—"

Done.

With Liu Jin on his back, Eunuch Wei walked towards the courtyard gate: "Tomorrow, you can expect to become the head of the Western Depot."

Xiao Shisan: "..."

Imperial Noble Consort Murong Yuhe, she already knew I was a man, why is she calling me over so late at night, does she want to become Xiao Shisan's woman completely?

Xiao Shisan's eyes lit up, and he felt very happy. Moreover, tomorrow, he, Xiao Shisan, would be the supervisor of the West Depot.

He's got both a promising career and a beautiful woman—wow, that's a double blessing!
