Chapter 28: The Empress is Jealous After Taking Down the Virtuous Consort? The Chief Eunuch of the W
The bedroom was lavishly furnished.
The air was filled with the faint fragrance of Gongsun Qinghua.
Gongsun Qinghua has a noble and slender figure, and an elegant demeanor. Her long legs are fair and delicate under her skirt.
Those white jade high heels accentuated her graceful figure, making her exceptionally charming.
Listen to the approaching footsteps of Xiao Shisan.
Gongsun Qinghua's profile was already flushed crimson, like a magnificent rosy sunset, a breathtaking sight.
"I never imagined that I would lose my virginity to you, the chief eunuch who was accidentally castrated in the eunuch's quarters! How laughable..."
She muttered to herself.
But it also sounds like she's talking to Xiao Shisan!
Xiao Shisan: "..."
Depend on!
What's wrong with me being the chief eunuch?
Am I, Xiao Shisan, not better than that useless emperor? Not only was he placed under house arrest by the Left Chancellor Li Sidao, but he was also a cripple!
Xiao Shisan came up behind her, lifted her long, black hair from behind, and sniffed it; the fragrance was pleasant.
"Hehe, Your Majesty, don't feel wronged yet. You'll see how good I am in a moment!" As he spoke, Xiao Shisan wrapped his arms around her waist, his fragrance filling the air.
Suddenly, I felt a tightness around my waist!
Gongsun Qinghua slowly turned her head, her beautiful eyes filled with sarcasm, and her red lips curled into a mocking smile.
"Hmph, your merits? What's so great about you?"
"That's right, you helped Xiuhe and got wild ginseng for me, but in my eyes, aren't you still of lowly status?"
Xiao Shisan looked at her captivating natural face, and then saw her sarcastic remarks...
"Oh dear!"
Xiao Shisan was furious. He suddenly picked her up and said mockingly, "Does Your Highness look down on people? Don't think that just because Your Highness is a high and mighty concubine, you can just kneel down later. You'll have to kneel down, won't you?"
"Huh? Xiao Shisan...don't be so rude!!"
……
One hour later.
Xiao Shisan walked out of the hall with a pleasant expression.
"Steward Xiao!"
Xiuhe greeted her: "That Han Shanggong came by an hour ago. She said to tell you not to wander around, and that Liu Jin, the supervisor of the Western Depot, might come looking for you at any time."
"I understand, I know."
Xiao Shisan smiled slightly, humming a little tune, and walked towards the palace gate.
Xiuhe was surprised. Why did Steward Xiao seem so refreshed?
She walked into the hall and was surprised to see a white jade tall figure arranged as desired in front of the couch in the inner hall.
Gongsun Qinghua's dark hair was disheveled, her fair feet were on the ground, and her calves trembled under her skirt. Her upper body was lying on the couch, and her profile was as red as blood...
"Oh dear, Your Highness, what's wrong?"
Xiuhe stepped forward and saw Gongsun Qinghua's beautiful eyes half-closed and her delicate nose breathing softly.
Gongsun Qinghua's voice was a little hoarse: "I'm fine, you can go out now and let me rest... while you're at it, prepare a bath for me."
"Oh, yes!"
Xiuhe was about to leave.
"What about him?" Gongsun Qinghua suddenly asked.
Xiuhe stopped and bowed, asking, "Is Your Highness referring to Chief Steward Xiao?"
"Um!"
"Oh, Your Majesty, he just left!"
asshole!
Gongsun Qinghua's beautiful eyes flashed with anger, and she pounded the bed with her jade fist. Damn it, he didn't even say anything gentle before leaving like that.
At least, she, as the Virtuous Consort, was already Xiao Shisan's woman, wasn't she?
"Hehe, Father, you've come out!" Chief Steward Liao smiled obsequiously as he saw Xiao Shisan emerge from the palace courtyard.
Xiao Shisan was in a good mood, chuckled, took out some silver from his pocket, and tossed it to Steward Liao: "It took me an hour to get out, I'm exhausted!"
"Oh, Father, you're too kind!" Seeing the silver, Steward Liao's eyes lit up, and he quickly stuffed the silver into his sleeve. "Father, what were you doing in there? Are you exhausted?"
Look at you rambling on like that!
This is a secret within the palace; would I tell you?
Xiao Shisan chuckled slyly, "Of course it's serving the Empress, how could it not be tiring?"
"Indeed, indeed! Steward Xiao, please take care... From now on, you'll be my father. Remember to come visit often!"
Listening to what Manager Liao said behind him.
Xiao Shisan felt incredibly pleased and said without turning his head, "Don't be so polite, just call me Brother Shisan."
"Yes, yes!"
Manager Liao repeatedly agreed.
Xiao Shisan chuckled to himself. Money really is power! Give this guy some silver and he'll call me "father"!
Moreover, there was a large box of gold and silver jewelry under his bed…
You can't spend it all, you simply can't spend it all!
Just as he was feeling quite pleased with himself...
In the palace alley ahead, there stood Eunuch Wei, dressed in a red robe and holding a whisk.
Eunuch Wei was looking this way with a half-smile.
"Oh, Eunuch Wei?"
"What are you doing here? Were you waiting for me?"
Xiao Shisan stepped forward, his face beaming with smiles.
Eunuch Wei sneered, "Hmph, I found out you were at Jingren Palace, so I've been waiting here for a long time. Consort Xian is backed by a powerful family; you and Consort Xian…"
"nailed it!"
Xiao Shisan interrupted him, then laughed, "Eunuch Wei, you asked me to handle this matter, and I did. The Empress will probably be here soon. Hehe, can you give me the antidote for the Ten-Day Death Powder now?"
Snapped!
Eunuch Wei slapped away Xiao Shisan's outstretched hand.
"No rush for the antidote!"
"We're asking you, did you kill Liu Yuhe?"
Now, let's get down to business.
Xiao Shisan's expression turned serious: "Hiss, is this a minor issue?"
Eunuch Wei frowned.
"I heard that his godfather...that is, Liu Jin of the Western Depot, is leading men to Changchun Palace."
"Go to Changchun Palace immediately. I'll inform Imperial Noble Consort Murong Yuhe to also go to Changchun Palace..."
It seems that Eunuch Wei also has spies!
Otherwise, how could he have known Liu Jin's whereabouts so well?
Xiao Shisan nodded: "I'll go right away!"
That's all!
Xiao Shisan was about to run off when Eunuch Wei grabbed his arm: "Hmm? What is it now, Eunuch Wei?"
"Gongsun Qinghua is backed by a powerful and influential family... If you become involved with her, it will help us bring down the treacherous officials. Remember, if she ever asks you to go to her palace, you must not refuse!"
Who would refuse such a good thing?
"good!"
Xiao Shisan chuckled and nodded, then asked in confusion, "Hiss... Eunuch Wei, why does it have to be me who does it? Why not let someone else do it...?"
"Because... Oh dear, stop asking, hurry up and go!" Old Eunuch Wei glared angrily.
Xiao Shisan shook his head.
Oh shit!
That old eunuch, he's definitely hiding some secret from me!
We arrived at Changchun Palace.
"Thirteenth Brother!"
When Ruyi saw Xiao Shisan, her eyes were red as she greeted him: "Why are you only just getting back?"
"Ruyi, why are your eyes red? Did someone bully you? Tell me who it was, and I'll have them beaten to a pulp!" Xiao Shisan angrily looked around.
Instantly!
The eunuchs in the palace were all startled, as they all knew that Ruyi was under Xiao Shisan's protection.
"Thirteenth Brother, even if we had ten times the courage, we wouldn't dare to bully Miss Ruyi!" They hurriedly waved their hands in fright.
Ruyi let out a soft sigh.
"Thirteenth Brother, no one is bullying me."
"I asked the Empress to bestow me upon you so we could be a couple, but she got angry and hasn't spoken to me since!"
Upon hearing this!
Xiao Shisan: "..."
The Empress had been calling me "husband" affectionately in the palace, and I had even hugged and cuddled her.
You want her to give you to me as a concubine?
Oh my god, is the Empress jealous?
puff!
Xiao Shisan couldn't help but laugh.
"Thirteenth Brother, you're still laughing? We can't be a couple anymore!" Ruyi said aggrievedly.
Thinking that Liu Jin might come to cause trouble, Xiao Shisan quickly put away his smile and said seriously, "It's alright, I'll go and put in a good word for you with the Empress."
"Oh, right, Thirteenth Brother... Lady Han came by and said that if you have time, you should go see her," Ruyi said.
Han Shanggong, Han Meijun?
I even hit her butt with a feather duster before, what does she want from me?
My butt itches again?
Xiao Shisan shook his head and smiled.
They quickly arrived at the main hall and pushed open the door.
Upon entering the main hall, Empress Pei Ruohan was nowhere to be seen.
When we reached the inner hall.
Then they saw Empress Pei Ruohan, dressed in a red palace gown, sitting gracefully in front of her dressing mirror.
Pei Ruohan stared intently at her stunningly beautiful face reflected in the bronze mirror, lost in thought.
"Xiao Shisan!"
"I sent you to execute Liu Yu, why have you only just returned?"
"I heard from the returning eunuch that after you executed Liu Yu, you went to Gongsun Qinghua's place in Jingren Palace?"
"I want to know, why did she seek you out?"
Pei Ruohan possesses a noble temperament and dignified demeanor, and her voice is calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever.
Wearing a red palace dress and white jade high heels, she flicked the hem of her dress with her bare hand, revealing her fair and slender legs.
Then, she stood up, revealing her stunningly beautiful face. Her eyes shone like stars, her nose was delicate and straight, and her lips were full and alluring.
Her beauty is breathtaking, truly divine!
"Your Highness, are you perhaps jealous?"
Seeing her beauty and inhaling her fragrance, Xiao Shisan stepped forward and embraced her slender waist.
"Why are you hugging and cuddling me the moment we meet!" Pei Ruohan's jade-like face was cold and stern. "Besides... who's jealous of you? Don't talk nonsense... let go of me now!"
The Empress, what a contrast!
She clearly had a lot on her mind, but she pretended to be dignified.
Just as Xiao Shisan was about to continue his teasing remarks, he suddenly heard a series of chaotic footsteps and the clanging of weapons in the palace alley.
"Oh no! Liu Yu and his godfather, Liu Jin, are here! They're almost at Changchun Palace!!"
"And there were quite a few people, probably several dozen."
Xiao Shisan frowned.
Swish!
Pei Ruohan's beautiful eyes flashed: "How did you know?"
I just finished speaking!
Then a thin, hoarse voice rang out, shouting angrily, "Who is Xiao Shisan? Come out and see me!!"
