Chapter 18 Let go of that girl!
After dinner at Changchun Palace, He Ruyi and the other eunuchs chatted and laughed in their cell.
It was already dusk, with the sky gradually darkening and the afterglow of the sunset shining brightly.
Holding the red robe that only the chief eunuch was entitled to wear, Xiao Shisan walked towards the palace gate.
"Thirteenth Brother!"
The pretty Ruyi, lifting her skirt, came to greet us, her fragrance wafting in the air: "Thirteenth Brother, at the dinner table, where did you say you were staying?"
Everyone else calls Xiao Shisan, the Chief Steward!
As she wished, she affectionately called Xiao Shisan "Brother Shisan".
For Xiao Shisan, as long as he doesn't have to call him "father-in-law," it's fine.
Xiao Shisan tucked his clothes under his armpits: "It's Peach Blossom Studio! What do you mean, you don't really want to... sleep with me, do you?"
Ruyi blushed, fiddling with the strands of hair on her chest, and nodded shyly.
"It's not as bad as you make it out to be!"
"I told you, if you bring down Steward Liu, I'll become your lover."
Xiao Shisan: "..."
This girl is so naive!
I am a real man, not a eunuch.
If you sleep with me, I reckon we'll have another baby in ten months.
Xiao Shisan smiled, then suddenly heard Pei Ruohan calling from inside the hall, seemingly calling for Ruyi:
"Hmm? Hurry up, it sounds like the Empress is calling you!"
"Um!"
Ruyi nodded, glanced at me shyly, then swayed her alluring little hips and hurriedly ran towards the main hall.
Xiao Shisan stared at Ruyi's buttocks for a while, then grinned.
This girl is not only pretty, but she also has a nice perky butt. Not bad!
"Your Majesty, you wanted to see me?"
Ruyi arrived in the hall.
Lying on the couch, Empress Pei Ruohan, her face filled with worry, blushed unusually and nodded gently:
"As you wish! Xiao Shisan is trustworthy; there's no need to monitor him anymore..."
"Huh? They're not monitoring us anymore?"
Ruyi asked curiously, "Your Majesty, why is this?"
He's a fake eunuch, and she has leverage over him. Why would she need to monitor him?
Pei Ruohan's cheeks flushed, her beautiful eyes filled with panic, and she quickly looked away: "Don't ask anymore. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just look for Xiao Shisan. He's quite capable."
"oh!"
Ruyi nodded gently and smiled happily. The Empress finally had a good impression of the Thirteenth Brother.
The crescent moon rises.
In the secluded palace alleys, the palace lanterns had already been lit.
Xiao Shisan was in a good mood, humming a little tune as he walked along the palace alley toward his residence, Peach Blossom Studio.
He thought to himself that he had helped the Empress resolve many issues, and his current impression of her must be extremely positive!
The image of Pei Ruohan's long, slender legs and stunningly beautiful face flashed through Xiao Shisan's mind, and just thinking about it made him feel good.
Sooner or later, we must take it down!
Xiao Shisan was feeling quite pleased with himself, his hearing being dozens of times better than that of an ordinary person…
moment!
They heard the delicate voice of a palace maid ahead.
"Manager Zhang, please move aside and stop blocking the way, okay?"
"You're over fifty, how can you be so shameless? I've already said I won't be your mistress, and if you don't move aside... I'll call for help!"
That voice sounds familiar!
Xiao Shisan's eyes widened as he suddenly remembered.
Is it a plain consonant?
The personal maid of Han Meijun, the Palace Attendant of the Palace Punishment Department.
Su Yin left a deep impression on Xiao Shisan, so he immediately remembered her.
Su Yin, that girl, had fair and delicate skin, and a pure and innocent appearance. Her big, watery eyes were like a clear spring in the world.
With her delicate nose and small mouth, she could be described as a pure and innocent beauty.
After recalling Su Yin's memory, Xiao Shisan suddenly looked up.
Under the cover of night, a hundred meters ahead, Su Yin, carrying a tray, was stopped by a red-robed eunuch.
The soprano faces left, and the eunuch faces left.
Suyin faced right, and the eunuch also faced right to block her way.
The eunuchs just wouldn't give way to Suyin!
"So what if I'm over fifty? You call me godfather, and then we sleep together and chat, isn't that even more exciting?"
Hearing the eunuch's words.
Xiao Shisan was greatly surprised.
I rely on!
That looked pretty exciting!
Even I, a pervert, find it perverted!
"Hehehe, Miss Suyin, I am, after all, the chief steward in front of Empress Dowager Dou, aren't I?"
"It's your good fortune to be my partner. As my partner, I'll give you all the best food and drink, gold and silver!"
The steward, surnamed Zhang, persisted relentlessly.
"I...I don't want any of your things," Su Yin cried out anxiously. "Get out of my way!"
Steward Zhang sneered, then, enraged, said, "You wretch! Don't be so ungrateful."
If you don't agree, I'll tell your master, Han Meijun, that you're flirting with handsome young eunuchs, and your master will punish you severely!
"Stop making baseless accusations! I didn't!" Su Yin retorted firmly.
Steward Zhang chuckled: "But your master will definitely believe it. You know, your master is a cold-faced person who believes everything she hears and strictly adheres to the rules; she can't tolerate any nonsense."
Not bad!
Han Meijun, the Palace Attendant, gave Xiao Shisan the same impression... just like a ruthless nun.
However, that eunuch in front... even if you were given a chance, a eunuch without the right tools is useless!
"Let go of that girl!!"
Having heard too many jokes about Xiao Shisan's past life, he almost blurted out "Let me do it" after saying that.
He stepped forward, his face contorted with malice: "Damn it, which palace eunuch is this? How dare he bully a little girl like this? What, is there no law in the palace?"
Swish!
Su Yin and Steward Zhang looked over at the same time.
Xiao Shisan then got a good look at Steward Zhang's face. He had shifty eyes and a face full of pockmarks, and he looked to be over fifty years old.
"Who...who are you?"
Chief Steward Zhang was furious at being interrupted: "Which palace are you from? Dare to state your name?"
Su Yin saw that someone was helping her.
Carrying the tray, she quickly took advantage of a moment when Manager Zhang wasn't paying attention and bypassed him.
He jogged up behind Xiao Shisan:
"Steward Xiao...you, you must help me get rid of him."
Xiao Shisan: "..."
Oh, this silly girl!
If you call me Steward Xiao, then he'll know who I am, won't he?
Xiao Shisan smiled helplessly, then glared at Steward Zhang: "What business is it of yours who I am?!"
"She called you Steward Xiao? Oh—"
Chief Steward Zhang exclaimed, "You must be Xiao Shisan, the newly appointed chief steward of Changchun Palace?"
News travels fast in the palace, and it's no surprise that Chief Steward Zhang knew about it.
But since things have already turned ugly, there's no need to be polite with him now.
Xiao Shisan remained completely unfazed: "Knowing this, why aren't you getting out of here?"
Steward Zhang sneered, "Good lad, you're really fearless. Do you even know who I am? I'm from the side of Empress Dowager Dou in the Cining Palace..."
"roll!"
Xiao Shisan glared angrily: "If you don't get out of here, I'll beat you to death, you old eunuch!"
Manager Zhang, who was over fifty years old, was no match for the young and strong Xiao Shisan. He seemed genuinely afraid that Xiao Shisan would make a move, so he quickly took a few steps back.
"Fine, fine, fine, you just wait!"
"Screw you, don't you dare run away... Stop right there!!" Xiao Shisan said with a roguish air.
He shouted that.
Instead of stopping, the grandson ran away as fast as he could, terrified...
This made Su Yin chuckle.
"Thirteenth Brother, thank you!"
"But I've gotten you into trouble. He's a favorite of Empress Dowager Dou in Cining Palace, and his name is Zhang Dehai."
"He's a very petty person. Once he finds out who you are, he'll definitely retaliate."
Upon hearing this!
Xiao Shisan turned around and saw Su Yin looking up with her big eyes wide with fear as she spoke.
"He knows who I am, didn't you tell him?" Xiao Shisan smiled and glared at the little girl.
Upon hearing this, the little girl's big, watery eyes widened, her little mouth immediately trembled, and she lowered her head to cry.
"It seems so. I...I was so stupid just now!!"
"Hey? Why are you crying!"
Xiao Shisan quickly comforted her, "Don't cry, I didn't mean to blame you. I have the Imperial Noble Consort backing me up, I'm not afraid of him."
This innocent-looking girl is really something... If I punched her, she'd probably cry for a long time.
"Imperial Noble Consort, will she really protect you?"
She looked up, her big eyes glistening with tears: "But Empress Dowager Dou is very strict. According to seniority... Empress Dowager Dou is the Left Chancellor's aunt. Apart from the Imperial Noble Consort, Empress Dowager Dou currently holds the most power in the palace."
indeed!
Xiao Shisan also remembered this.
But things have already come to this, so there's no use being afraid now!
Seeing that she was pretty and pleasing to the eye, Xiao Shisan grinned and said, "It's alright, I'll figure out a way to handle it."
Thinking back to tonight, Eunuch Wei had arranged for him to meet Consort Gongsun Qinghua.
It's getting late.
Then I saw Suyin carrying dinner in her arms.
Xiao Shisan said with a smile, "Suyin, is this dinner you brought to your master? Hurry up and take it, lest your master, Han Shanggong, punish you."
"Yes! Thank you, Steward Xiao."
"If I have the chance, I'll thank you properly then..."
After she finished speaking, she carried the tray and walked forward.
Xiao Shisan stared at her back.
This girl is so adorably silly.
If I could trick her into becoming my wife, that wouldn't be bad!
Xiao Shisan's smile suddenly froze as he suddenly remembered the matter of his uncle Xiao being killed!
Uncle Xiao treated him well, saving the best food and drink for Xiao Shisan to enjoy.
After Uncle Xiao was killed in the palace, Xiao Shisan never even saw his body.
Since Su Yin's master, Han Meijun, is in charge of the Palace Punishment Department and is responsible for punishments, it's possible that her apprentice, Su Yin, knows Uncle Xiao.
"Wait!"
Xiao Shisan called out to her retreating figure, then hurried forward and tentatively asked:
"Miss Suyin, have you ever heard of an old eunuch named Xiao Shizhong?"
"Xiao Shizhong?"
Su Yin frowned slightly, tilted her pretty head and thought for a moment, then her beautiful eyes suddenly lit up:
"Oh, it's him? I know Eunuch Xiao!"
She really knew?
Xiao Shisan, who had initially given up hope, suddenly felt a jolt of excitement and stepped forward, asking with great enthusiasm:
"Miss Suyin, tell me quickly, what do you know about Eunuch Xiao?!"
