"Damn slave! Three drinks as a penalty. Who made us laugh so hard that our stomachs hurt!" Liu Ruyun couldn't help but said, grabbing Xiao Chen's ears and forcing him to drink three glasses of wine.
"This slave deserves to be punished..." Li Wanjiang wiped away his tears from laughter and pointed at Duanmu Nanqiao, "My beloved, please tell me something too."
"Sister can't do it, and I can't do it either. I'd better ask Xiao Chen to do it for me." Duanmu Nanqiao stood up and poured a glass of wine for Xiao Chen himself, "Excuse me."
"It doesn't make sense. Your Majesty, Queen, and other ladies, you are unclear about rewards and punishments. If the joke is not funny, you will be fined with alcohol, but if the joke is funny, you will be punished?" Xiao Chen had a bitter look on his face and was extremely helpless.
"Stop talking nonsense and talk quickly!" Liu Ruyun said with a smile.
"Ouch!" Xiao Chen thought for a moment, "This is a matter of the previous dynasty. The eunuch who was the chief eunuch of the previous dynasty was named Liu Haishan. He was originally a powerful general in the Han army and was very brave. A good fighter, he was seriously injured in a fierce battle, and his lower body was cut off with a knife..."
"The previous emperor took pity on him, so he transferred him to his side and made him the chief eunuch of the Chief of Ceremonies. It can be said that he was deeply gracious."
"He didn't care much about it himself. After all, it was worth it to trade that job for a palm eunuch. It's just that he couldn't have sex. But his wife was very sad. She cried every night and complained about him endlessly... …”
"He explained to his wife earnestly that although he had suffered an accident, he had become such a high-ranking official after all. You are already a third-level wife, so what's there to be sad about? But his wife still kept crying and said that she didn't care about it. As a high-ranking official, I just hope he has a penis..."
"He couldn't help but get angry, slapped the case, and cursed loudly, you are really a woman! If you want to say that, can I, the eunuch of the ceremonial department, even Not as good as an egg?"
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter again. Everyone knew that Gong Shouli didn't have a penis. Xiao Chen was a very hateful guy. He was just criticizing Huai and making fun of Gong Shouli!
It's just a matter of saying clearly that Gong Shouli is worse than an egg.
The angry Gong Shouli ignored Xiao Chen's disrespect and rolled up his arms and sleeves to confront Xiao Chen!
"Shou Li, isn't this just a joke? Why are you so angry? I'm going to favor you and let you tell Xiao Chen a story." Li Wanjiang said with a smile.
But Gong Shouli didn't have the ability of Xiao Chen. He couldn't speak out even though his face was red, so he had to stamp his feet fiercely, "This slave is not as vulgar as his kid!"
"Let me tell you something, my concubine." Liu Ruyun said with a smile.
As my eyes wandered, I saw that Xiao Chen was the only one wearing a scarf among the crowd, and I had a story in my mind.
"There was a monk urinating on the roadside and shaking off after peeing. At this time, a student wearing a scarf passed by..." Liu Ruyun said and glanced at Xiao Chen.
Everyone also looked at Xiao Chen. When they saw the scarf on his head, they all smiled knowingly and said to themselves that this time it is your turn to be unlucky.
"The student wearing a scarf has a humorous personality and likes to joke. He would tease other monks and say, 'What are you two, master and disciple, talking about in secret here?'"
Everyone couldn't help laughing when they heard this, thinking that these words really sounded like Xiao Chen's tone.
But Liu Ruyun continued, "The monk turned his head and glanced at the student, still shaking his work, and replied calmly, 'The poor monk wanted to fold his square scarf to wear it to see how big his head was.' "
Hahaha! Everyone laughed again after hearing this.
Murong Danqiu's face turned red when she smiled, and she even said that Liu Ruyun's hoofs were really damned!
Is this what you, a noble concubine, should say?
"Oh, I don't even remember how long it has been since I smiled so happily." Li Wanjiang smiled so comfortably that his face was filled with joy.
"It's my concubine's turn to say something, but your Majesty, you have to forgive me first." Not to be outdone, Concubine Liang also took the initiative to make everyone laugh.
"Not guilty." Li Wanjiang was very happy.
"My concubine is talking about something from the previous dynasty. There was an official who was very afraid of his wife and was always beaten. He was angry but dared not speak out. One day when the lion roared in the east of the river, his wife became so powerful that she even smashed his The gauze hat is broken!"
"He was really angry. He ran directly to the palace to complain to the emperor, and said: 'Your Majesty, my wife Luo Zao had an argument yesterday and broke my black gauze hat. I ask the emperor to issue an order to punish her! '"
"When the emperor heard about it, he was silent for a long time before he slowly said: 'My dear, you have to be patient. My dear, you don't know something. The queen is also a little tired. She had a disagreement with me last night and my life was ruined. The crown was smashed to pieces... My dear, your gauze hat is nothing more than an egg bag compared to my Pingtian crown!"
"Hahaha!" Li Wanjiang laughed so hard that his whole body trembled, and he pointed at Concubine Liang and said, "My beloved concubine, you can just make fun of me, but why are you bringing the queen with you?"
Murong Danqiu was angry and funny, and said angrily, "Give me the little hooves like Zuizui and let her talk nonsense!"
That night, the monarch and his ministers were having a great time, but Gong Shouli was the only one standing in the corner, pouting, looking unhappy.
On the way back from the car, I naturally had to say something bad about Xiao Chen, "This little bastard Xiao Chen is so rude in front of the emperor and the queen. It shows how he behaves in private. I think he is a monster in the eyes of the slaves. If we don’t get rid of it, sooner or later the harem will be in chaos!”
"How can he, a eunuch, mess up the harem? Besides, this is a trivial matter..." Li Wanjiang's reason for wanting to kill Xiao Chen was not that simple.
Chen Wenqi, the Secretary of the Ministry of Users, said that Xiao Chen was a man of great power and deep intelligence, but he was by no means as simple as he seemed on the surface.
Although he is smart and capable, he cannot understand the emperor's thoughts. This is fine, but he is afraid that he knows the emperor's thoughts but deliberately forces the emperor to do things.
It would be fine if he was just an ordinary little eunuch, but now his power in the palace is getting stronger and stronger, and he has even become vaguely superior to the ceremonial eunuch and the Jin Yiwei!
This is inappropriate.
The palace only needs someone as foolish and loyal as Gong Shouli, but it doesn't need someone as shrewd as Xiao Chen.
Otherwise, if he has any different intentions, something unspeakable may happen...
It must be guarded against.
Let him go abroad? It's not impossible, but people like him are actually not easy to control.
It is said that with a little trick, he can conquer the city and the country... Have you seen what happened in Siam and Burma, right?
What if he makes a few more big 'contributions' outside? What should we do with him?
Not only did Chen Wenqi mean this, but several other close ministers also expressed similar intentions. Although they did not say it explicitly, they meant that it was best to get rid of him, and that would be the end of it.
This is exactly what Li Wanjiang wants.
Now we just need to find a correct way to get rid of Xiao Chen.
It's definitely not possible to kill him openly, and assassination is even more inappropriate. Then he can only let him die on his own, and die clearly.
But when the matter came to an end, Li Wanjiang actually hesitated slightly.
Although this kid deserves to die, he is really smart, capable, clever, lovable, and considerate.
It would be a pity to kill him.
