Li Chunfeng’s deduction skills are quite powerful!
That evening, the jailer came to release him!
When we were about to arrive at our cell, Li Chunfeng gave me a piece of rag. Judging from the material, it must have been torn from his Taoist robe, he said, "Swallow it! Quick!"
I said: "What is this?"
Li Chunfeng said: "No matter what it is, after swallowing it, your Jiji will automatically disappear for three hours, so you can avoid palace punishment!"
"Are you sure?"
I said, "You won't be able to grow it after eating it, right?"
"Won't!"
Li Chunfeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, how could I harm you! If it's like what you said, the princess won't be able to skin me!"
It made sense to me, and since the jailer was almost here, I ate the food quickly.
As soon as the food was in my stomach, sure enough, I had nothing left!
hey-hey!
It feels a little weird.
Li Chunfeng said: "Remember, find the Tai Chi mirror and drop blood on it!"
As soon as we finished speaking, the jailer opened our cell, followed by an old eunuch.
The old eunuch glanced at me and beckoned: "Boy, come here!" The voice was high-pitched and a bit harsh.
I walked over as told.
The old eunuch touched my face and said, "Well, I look very upright and have a good body, but I'm a little older. I don't know if I can survive it!"
After saying that, he rushed to the two little eunuchs behind him and said: "Take it back and cut it first! As for whether he can survive it, it depends on his own luck!"
At that moment, two young eunuchs took me away.
These two young eunuchs were young, they looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, and they were fair and fair.
One of the little eunuchs looked at me and said, "Hey, you are so lucky!"
I pretended not to know anything and said, "I'm already in jail, so what kind of luck do I have! By the way, are you going to take me to the guillotine now?"
The little eunuch said: "How lucky you are! Originally, people in your kind of cell were bound to be executed, but what a coincidence, His Majesty the Emperor announced a general amnesty for the whole world, and you escaped death!"
"Is there still this matter?"
I asked knowingly: "Why does the emperor want to grant amnesty to the whole world?"
At this time, another young eunuch said: "The Imperial Concubine is suffering from strange illnesses. In order to pray for the Imperial Concubine, Your Majesty pardoned your crimes!"
"That's it..."
I said, "Now that you have forgiven me, where are you taking me now?"
The little eunuch looked mysterious and said with a smile: "I will take you to a good place!"
I said, "Where?"
The little eunuch said: "A place where you can put aside the worries of men and reach the peak of life!"
"The peak of life?"
I said: "Don't brag!"
"Who are you bragging to?"
The little eunuch said: "If you can survive it later, you will be assigned to Huaqing Palace! That is the palace of the imperial concubine. Do you think it is the pinnacle of life?"
Another young eunuch said: "It's useless to tell him this. I think he is not young anymore. I don't know if he can survive it! This kind of honoring the ancestors should be started from childhood. Only brothers like us can do this." right!"
Through the conversation, I learned that the two of them, one named Xiaobanzi and the other Xiaostool, were brothers.
Ten years ago, their father sold the two of them because of too many gambling debts.
After a few transactions, they entered the palace and became eunuchs.
However, judging from their appearance and tone of voice, they seem to be quite satisfied with it now!
After all, the imperial concubine is now the favorite of countless people!
Being able to work in Huaqing Palace is superior to other empresses!
After a while, I came to the cleansing room.
Far away, I heard a scream like a slaughtering pig coming from inside, which made my scalp numb!
After entering, I met the legendary knife maker.
A knife maker is a person who produces eunuchs.
I had some knowledge of this before coming here.
It is said that you can earn six taels of silver with one stroke, which is a huge profit!
However, they do not simply cut a knife, but provide one-stop service from beginning to end. Only when the person who has been knifed can officially go to work can they get the corresponding commission.
"Old Liu, here comes another one!"
The small board and stool led me in and said, "I'm a bit older now. Can you see if I'm confident?"
The knife maker named Lao Liu glanced at me and said, "Looking at my complexion, it shouldn't be a big problem!"
"That's okay!"
As he said that, the small board and stool picked up the rope and tied me to the operating table.
After doing this, Xiaobanzi said: "Lao Liu, the next step is up to you. Let's go out and wait!"
Little Stool patted me on the shoulder and said, "Brother, you must hold on! As long as we survive this, we will be good sisters from now on!"
After the two went out, Lao Liu began to sharpen and disinfect the knife.
Then take off my clothes!
"Huh?"
At that time, Lao Liu was stunned. He raised the knife above his head and did not drop it for a long time. He said to himself: "Why not?"
I quickly said: "No...that's not good! It saves trouble!"
Lao Liu asked: "Have you always been like this?"
"yes!"
I sighed and said, "I was born a freak and was almost abandoned by my parents!"
Lao Liu said: "Then why didn't you say anything just now?"
I said, "I just told them that I'm afraid that I won't be able to become a eunuch, what if they treat me as a freak and kill me!"
"makes sense!"
Lao Liu said: "Then do you want to be an eunuch?"
"Of course I do!"
I nodded desperately.
Lao Liu said: "If you want to be a eunuch, we will pretend that we have castrated you. You must not let it slip!"
"OK!"
I said: "Sixth Brother's kindness will always be engraved in my heart, Xiao Yuanzi!"
"good!"
Lao Liu smiled and said: "In the future, if you are around the imperial concubine, if you get confused, don't forget me, brother!"
"Of course not!"
I said, "Brother Six, do we want to act?"
"Got to act!"
Lao Liu said: "You scream first, then I will bandage it up for you, and you can go out!"
"good!"
Lao Liu and I acted together in a play.
I can enter the harem without any problem.
And he could successfully get six taels of silver.
A win-win deal, just do it!
After the performance, Lao Liu sprinkled some water on me. At first glance, it looked no different from sweat!
After doing this, Lao Liu opened the door and shouted outside: "This is done, take it away!"
After a while, the small board and stool came in again.
The two of them untied the rope, helped me up, and said, "It's okay, sister, I can bear it quite well!"
I pretended to be weak and sighed: "Oh... I can't bear it!"
The two said goodbye to Lao Liu and took me to the inner palace, where the eunuchs lived.
Entering a small dark room, the little board said: "You need to rest for a few days. Someone will bring you food in the next few days! This is the center of the harem, so don't run around by yourself!"
I said, "I have to be able to run even if I want to!"
Xiaobanzi said: "That's what I mean! In short, when doing things here, everything must be done by the rules and with caution! If you do it, you will be a dragon among men! If you smash it, your head will fall to the ground! Do you understand?"
"Understand!"
I said: "Thank you two seniors for your support and care! When I get my salary, I will honor you two as soon as possible!"
"Yes, he is a useful material!"
The two of them left after a few more instructions.
I was left alone in bed.
It's evening now, and people are coming and going everywhere, so it's not convenient to move around.
I thought that after dark, I could go to Huaqing Palace and find the Tai Chi mirror as soon as possible.
In a flash it was dark.
Sure enough, someone came to bring me food.
Maybe it’s because he’s a wounded person, but the food is pretty good!
After eating, someone took away the dishes and chopsticks.
In the meantime, Little Board and Little Stool came to me again and gave me clothes.
Finally the old eunuch also took a look at me.
The old eunuch is called Mr. An, and he is the leader of our area. It is said that he is from the imperial concubine’s hometown, and he has won the imperial concubine’s trust!
When the surroundings calmed down, I put on my eunuch's clothes and went out quietly.
