After leaving Shangqing Palace,

Yang Dong felt like he was floating all over.

In just a few days, he rose from an ordinary young eunuch to the position of general manager.

This speed of promotion is comparable to riding a rocket.

It seems that Ji Ziyue is in urgent need of confidants. As long as I perform well, I will definitely have a bright future. Maybe the Empress will let me climb onto the dragon couch one day when she is happy...

As he was thinking this, he accidentally plunged into a ball of soft flesh.

Hmm... so soft, with a faint orchid fragrance.

Yang Dong took a step back and then noticed that he had just bumped into the arms of a palace maid.

"Slave Chunlan, please pay your respects to Manager Yang."

The little palace lady turned sideways and saluted, her face as soft as an oval was stained with a thin layer of blush. Although her appearance is not that of a beautiful lady, she can still be called a beautiful lady.

It's only Xiao He who shows off her sharp points, which is really far behind the empress's broad mind.

After Yang Dong commented in his heart, he slowly spoke:

"Chunlan, right? Why are you looking for this office?"

"Tell Mr. Yang that Concubine Xiang invites you to visit Kangning Palace."

Chunlan said timidly.

"Empress Xiangfei?"

Yang Dong's eyebrows moved slightly, and his brain quickly searched for memories about this concubine.

Xiang Fei's real name is Zhao Xiangling, and she entered the palace later than the queen. It is said that she has always been very quiet, likes to read, eats fast, chants Buddha's name, and prays for the emperor. Because of his sincere worship of Buddha and kindness to palace people, he was known as a living Bodhisattva among eunuchs and maids.

I just don’t know if this living Bodhisattva is the same type as the living Bodhisattva on Little Blue Bird?

Yang Dong gathered his thoughts and continued to ask:

"Sister Chunlan, do you know why Concubine Xiang summoned me?"

When a stranger called her "girlfriend", Chunlan's oval face suddenly filled with red mist.

"Yang, Manager Yang. I don't know what's going on with your Majesty. However, your Majesty has been feeling depressed recently. It seems to be because of the flood in Luozhou..."

"That's it."

Yang Dong nodded slightly. As a person who sincerely worshiped Buddha, when he learned that the people of Luozhou were suffering from disaster, he naturally wanted to pray for all living beings.

Then calling yourself there is most likely to pray for blessings.

Thinking of this, Yang Dong no longer struggled. He raised his hand and pinched Chunlan's cheek, which could be broken by a blow, and said:

"Sister Chunlan, lead the way!"



In the main hall of Kangning Palace, there is a bottle of cold-faced Bodhisattva.

The sapphire table in front of the Bodhisattva is crowded with tributes of different sizes, large and small.

Zhao Xiangling was kneeling barefoot on the futon, wearing only a turquoise gauze dress.

"Daughter of the people Zhao Xiangling, I sincerely ask the Bodhisattva to protect the people of Luozhou in peace and safety..."

She prayed quietly and kowtowed.

The clear sunlight passed through the window lattice and outlined an almost perfect curve on her body.

If there was a man present at this moment, his eyes would be wide open.

Such a round and round peach butt is absolutely the best!

But in this deep palace courtyard, who can appreciate it?

At this moment, Chunlan's timid voice came from outside the door.

"Xiang Fei, Mr. Yang is here."

"Let him in."

Zhao Xiangling said lightly, her tone of voice was sweet, like a delicate oriole.

Yang Dong stood outside the door. Just listening to the sound, a picture of a fairy in a painting was sketched in his mind. He stepped into the palace gate, bowed and said solemnly:

"See Xiang Fei."

"Mr. Yang, you don't have to be like this. There aren't that many rules here in this palace."

Zhao Xiangling spoke calmly, with a slight smile on her lips.

Yang Dong then raised his head and looked at the Living Bodhisattva Xiang Fei.

Almond eyes Akihito, red lips and pomegranate teeth, icy skin and jade skin, as smooth as crisp, three thousand blue hairs like a waterfall, and a jade hairpin that charms all living beings.

He was obviously dressed in a dignified and luxurious manner, but there was still a hint of coquettishness in him.

"Do you think I am beautiful, Mr. Yang?"

Xiang Fei suddenly spoke, with a hint of temptation in her delicate voice.

Yang Dong subconsciously wanted to speak, but suddenly felt a cold feeling in his chest. This cold touch instantly woke him up from his confusion.

He lowered his head in a hurry, only to feel a large amount of cold sweat on his back.

What a sweet concubine, I thought she was a kind man and woman, but I didn’t expect that she is also a goblin who eats people without spitting out their bones! Fortunately, Qin Wangyu woke me up in time.

As expected, there is no fuel-efficient lamp in this harem!

Yang Dong complained silently in his heart, but pretended to be submissive on the outside.

"The empress is the lord of the palace, so she is naturally more beautiful than any other, and her elegance is unparalleled."

When Xiang Fei heard this answer, surprise flashed in Xing Fei's eyes. She looked Yang Dong up and down again, half-smiling but not smiling:

"You are young, but your mouth is quite sweet. No wonder His Majesty likes you so much."

"Your Majesty, I'm overly praised. I just don't know why your Majesty called me to Kangning Palace."

Yang Dong lowered his head again, assuming a respectful posture.

"Actually, it's nothing. It's just that I heard that Luozhou was hit by floods and the people were displaced. I couldn't bear it, so I wanted to burn incense and pray for the people."

"I wonder if Mr. Yang can accompany me and offer a stick of incense to the Bodhisattva to show my sincere feelings?"

Hearing this, Yang Dong's heart sank.

You are such a big man in Kangning Palace, with countless eunuchs and maids, why do you let me accompany you to offer incense?

Something is wrong, this witch definitely has no good intentions!

No, I have to find a way to escape from Kangnyeong Palace!

Having made up his mind, Yang Dong immediately spoke:

"My Lady, Xiang Fei, I'm sorry that this is a difficult matter. It's not that I don't want to accompany you to offer incense to the Bodhisattva, but it's because Your Majesty is anxious to summon me."

"Next time, definitely next time!"

When Xiang Fei heard this, the smile on her face did not change. She ignored Yang Dong and waved her hand towards Chunlan who was standing at the door.

"Chunlan, I want to offer incense to the Bodhisattva together with Manager Yang. Please take the others and leave first."

"Yes, concubine!"

After Chunlan bowed sideways, she led a group of maids and maids out of Kangning Palace, and closed the palace door tightly.

At this moment, Yang Dong and Xiang Fei were the only two people left in the entire main hall.

Yang Dong looked at Xiang Fei who was so close, but what flashed in his eyes was not greed, but strong fear!

His heart was beating wildly, and his forehead was instantly covered with beads of sweat.

What does this witch want to do? Why don't you let me go?

In fact, when Chunlan left just now, Yang Dong planned to go out with her.

But just as he was about to stand up, his limbs felt limp and he couldn't move at all.

Xiang Fei looked at Yang Dong, who looked like he was facing a formidable enemy, and her branches trembled with laughter. She was completely different from the dignified and virtuous man just now!

"Don't be afraid, Mr. Yang. You are so handsome that I am reluctant to kill you!"

As she spoke, she stretched out a jade finger and gently rubbed Yang Dong's face.

Yang Dong's expression was tense and his brain was working rapidly.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Fei turned out to be a crazy witch. It was a miscalculation!

But she probably won't take my life. After all, I am the chief steward just appointed by His Majesty. If she kills me, she will inevitably get angry.

In this case, she probably wanted me to do something for her.

Thinking of this, Yang Dong felt at ease. He slowly raised his head, stared at Xiang Fei and asked:

"Xiang Fei, there is no need to be so aggressive. Whatever you want me to do, you can just tell me."
