Chapter 14 The Empress suspects her identity, and the eunuch from the Imperial Household Department
Her question startled Xiao Shisan, causing his heart to pound and his breath to catch in his throat.
I rely on!
You can't just say things like that, or I might be dead. Maybe this imperial concubine is just teasing me?
Who would dare gamble their life on that?
Before Xiao Shisan could speak...
Murong Yuhe smiled charmingly, lay back down, and closed her eyes to rest.
"If so, then you'd better watch out!"
"This morning, the eunuchs from the Cleansing Department came to our Chuxiu Palace to inspect the eunuchs and performed physical examinations on them... I estimate that it will be your Changchun Palace's turn soon."
Xiao Shisan was startled and considered that he should tell Eunuch Wei, otherwise, if the people in the eunuch's office really found out that he was a real man, then he would be in big trouble.
Xiao Shisan massaged the Imperial Noble Consort's delicate feet, feeling very anxious.
Time passed, little by little!
Xiao Shisan looked up casually and was shocked to see the Imperial Noble Consort's stunningly beautiful face.
She was looking at him with deep affection in her eyes, without him noticing.
His eyes were fixed on the screen without blinking.
"Xiao Shisan, I truly adore your face!"
"And most importantly, I admire your cooking. Tell me, what reward do you desire later?"
She said with a charming smile.
Xiao Shisan remembered that the Empress had fainted and urgently needed to nourish her body. If he could get some meat, the Empress's favor towards him would surely increase!
"Hehe, as long as Your Majesty likes it."
"Your Majesty, if possible, could you please grant this servant some meat? Her Majesty the Empress is in poor health..."
Xiao Shisan smiled.
Murong Yuhe pouted and interrupted with a cold snort: "Hmph, you eunuch, you've just found a new master and you've already forgotten your old one, you heartless bastard!"
That's what she said.
However, the smile in his eyes did not diminish in the slightest.
Xiao Shisan had long since learned to read people's expressions, so he increased the pressure on his hands: "I'm just serving Your Majesty, how could I forget? Please don't be angry, Your Majesty."
puff!
Murong Yuhe smiled, her charm boundless.
"I'm not angry. The fact that you treat the new master like this just shows that you're a good person. Besides, the Empress is caught up in a power struggle and is under house arrest, which is quite pitiful for her right now..."
"How about this? If you can grant me one request and serve me to my satisfaction, I will grant your request... How about it?"
After saying these words, Murong Yuhe's eyes sparkled with spring-like light, and her cheeks unexpectedly flushed red.
"What are your requirements?"
Xiao Shisan was overjoyed: "I'll grant any request Your Majesty gives!"
...
a long time!
Xiao Shisan then left the palace.
Murong Yuhe's face was flushed. She sat up slightly, the phoenix hairpin in her hair trembling. A smile appeared on her beautiful lips.
"I never expected that Thirteen not only has excellent massage skills, but also has an exceptional way of speaking!"
"This truly satisfies me."
talking.
Murong Yuhe shouted instructions to the outside.
"A reward of two hundred taels of silver to Xiao Shisan!"
"Give him some more meat, and also give him my palace token, so that he won't be bullied in the palace."
"Little Wu, go to the Directorate of Ceremonial and get a set of the Chief Steward's red robe for Xiao Shisan!"
"Hehe, thank you, Your Majesty!!" Xiao Shisan walked outside the palace and was overjoyed to hear these words.
Some of the eunuchs looked on with envy.
Xiao Shisan gained a lot from his trip to Chuxiu Palace.
Not only was he holding a red robe that only a steward could wear, but he was also carrying a basket full of ingredients and silver notes in his arms.
Even his waist was adorned with a plaque bestowed by Imperial Noble Consort Murong Yuhe.
This hand of cards is just like the emperor's gold medal!
Seeing a gold medal is like seeing the emperor; the same applies to the cards in one's hand. With this, one can probably walk sideways in this palace, right?
"Hey, Thirteenth Brother!"
"You actually managed to get so much meat?"
"There's pork knuckle, ribs, and fish! My God, so much!"
We entered the hall.
When Ruyi saw the ingredients in the basket, she was incredibly surprised: "Thirteenth Brother, how did you do that...?"
How did you do that?
This could only be a secret between Xiao Shisan and the Imperial Noble Consort!
Xiao Shisan's smug smile froze instantly. He glanced at Pei Ruohan, whose face was exquisitely beautiful, lying on the couch: "Your Majesty, may I use your cup to rinse my mouth first?"
"Um!"
Pei Ruohan nodded slightly and helped herself to sit up. Ruyi quickly went over to support her: "Ruyi just asked you, how did you do that?"
Depend on?
Do I really have to know?
Xiao Shisan avoided eye contact, quickly picked up his cup, and took a few sips of water to rinse his mouth.
Then she said, "I know how to massage, and the Imperial Noble Consort was delighted, so she rewarded me with it. — Ruyi, take the ingredients to the small kitchen and prepare some food to nourish Her Majesty the Empress!"
"Yes, Thirteenth Brother!"
Ruyi walked over happily, picked up the shopping basket, her eyes full of admiration, and looked up at her pretty little face.
"Oh, right, Thirteenth Brother!"
"I'll have to trouble you to go to the Imperial Hospital and ask for some red ginseng and deer antler to replenish Her Majesty's blood and energy... because I went there last time, and they absolutely refused to give it to me."
At this moment, in Ruyi's eyes, Xiao Shisan was extremely capable and had great skills.
"Hehe, no problem, I'll go in a bit!" Xiao Shisan naturally had more to say to Pei Ruohan.
After waiting for her to arrive, she left with her vegetable basket.
Xiao Shisan approached the bedside, his gaze falling upon Pei Ruohan, whose pale yet beautiful face was tilted upwards, her delicate brows slightly furrowed: "What do you want to say?"
Pei Ruohan, the most beautiful woman in the Great Xia Dynasty, is truly stunning; she's absolutely mesmerizing!
Xiao Shisan felt an unbearable itch in his heart.
"Ahem, Your Majesty, why ask a question you already know the answer to?"
talking.
Xiao Shisan chuckled mischievously and sat down in front of her bed.
"Your Majesty, I've said before that you'll secretly be my woman, Xiao Shisan's woman. What's your thought about that?"
"Besides, we've already kissed, so that counts as physical intimacy, right?"
Pei Ruohan: "..."
She gently bit her red lips, lowered her eyes slightly, and softly parted her lips.
"Xiao Shisan, you're absolutely wicked!"
"I am the Empress, how could I possibly grant a request from a eunuch like you?"
"Xiao Shisan, you...you better tell me honestly, are you a fake or not..."
The word "eunuch" was not uttered!
Outside, Ruyi's voice called out hurriedly, "Thirteenth Brother, the people from the mortuary are here to examine you. They want you to come out for a moment."
Swish!
Xiao Shisan was shocked!
I rely on?
He was so engrossed in flirting with the Empress that he completely forgot what he had heard at Chuxiu Palace.
Imperial Noble Consort Murong Yuhe said that the Eunuch Affairs Office has recently started conducting physical examinations on the eunuchs...
Eunuch Wei, really, how could you not handle this kind of thing properly?
If they really find out I'm a fake eunuch, that would be terrible!
"Please ask Steward Xiao to come out here. Don't put us in a difficult position!"
The eunuchs from the eunuch's quarters outside urged, "Otherwise, we'll have to take some men in and escort you out—"
Look at Xiao Shisan's anxious expression.
Pei Ruohan was initially startled, then her face flushed red. After a moment of contemplation, she said, "They're urging us to go out. Aren't you going?"
"Ah? Coming...coming!"
Xiao Shisan was terrified and walked outside.
Simultaneously.
She prayed in her heart that Eunuch Wei would arrive soon.
Otherwise, if someone were to actually see a big lump in your crotch, the consequences would be unimaginable!
We arrived outside the hall.
Then a group of more than a dozen eunuchs came into the palace courtyard.
They had the eunuchs of Changchun Palace line up in the palace courtyard.
The leading eunuch, with triangular eyes, looked in this direction:
"You're Xiao Shisan, the new head eunuch of Changchun Palace, aren't you? Come over here and line up side by side. Pull down your pants so I can examine you one by one!!"
"If anything's wrong with you, you all need to be castrated again!"
Xiao Shisan dared not take a step forward.
If it's discovered, where do I need to have it recut?
They'd be more likely to lose their heads!
Glug!
Xiao Shisan nervously swallowed, his anxiety reaching its peak...
