Eunuch Jin was already in a bad mood, but now he saw two carriages driving straight in one after another without slowing down after entering the palace gate, which made him even more annoyed!
"Stop it for us!"
Eunuch Jin said angrily, "Who is so bold as to drive a car in the palace? Do you want to enter Kunci Palace and sit there?"
"Ouch! It's Master Jin!"
Eunuch Hai in the car saw someone blocking the road through the gap in the curtains from a distance. He wanted to scold him, but when he took a closer look, he saw that it was the top leader of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his immediate boss, Mr. Jin, and he couldn't help but look panicked. , quickly ordered the groom to stop, and pulled Liang Xiao out of the car to salute.
The Dongcheng Soldiers and Horses Division prison car behind him also stopped. The two jailers in charge got out of the car and stood aside, somewhat at a loss.
"My Lord Jin, why are you here!"
Eunuch Hai changed his previous arrogant attitude, bent down with great humility, and said with a flattering smile, "My servant told you about Kunci Palace a long time ago. You need to borrow it for one night. Have you not forgotten it?"
As he spoke, he quickly stretched out his hand, and dozens of large-denomination banknotes skillfully slipped into Eunuch Jin's sleeves with a very smooth movement.
Liang Xiao didn't want to speak. With his status, he didn't need to look at Eunuch Jin's face.
But considering that the other party was both a celebrity around His Majesty and Uncle Hai's direct leader, and that he really wanted something from the other party this time, he reluctantly nodded and said hello.
"It's you, Xiao Haizi, why have you forgotten all the rules in the palace? You dare to enter the palace gate and drive a car, but you don't want your head anymore?"
Eunuch Jin pretended not to see Liang Xiao, and first gave Eunuch Hai a few words. Then he shook his long sleeves and felt the weight of the banknote. His eyebrows softened slightly and he added lightly, "Thank you for meeting our family." , if that guy Cao Xianxian sees it, he won’t have the kindness to talk to you, and no matter how much money he gives, it will be in vain.”
Eunuch Hai immediately followed suit, "Isn't that right? I know that you need to take care of the affairs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, otherwise everything will be in chaos... But I am really anxious today. I just want to get to Kunci Palace as soon as possible, but I don’t want to break the rules of the palace, so please forgive me, Mr. Jin.”
After speaking, he lowered his voice again, leaned into Eunuch Jin's ear and said, "Master Jin, I accidentally harvested three half-foot golden Buddhas a few days ago. It is said that they are all important Buddhist tools that can be used to exorcise evil spirits." It's very effective and has great collection value... It's a pity that I'm not a Buddhist, so the things in my hands are really a waste of resources. How about I send someone to deliver it to your house later?"
"It's rare that you still remember that our family believes in Buddhism. Yes, since we have this filial piety, our family can't disappoint you, so we reluctantly accepted it."
Eunuch Jin finally smiled, but soon turned serious again, "However, this will not happen again, let alone let Cao Xianxian know that he hates worshiping Buddha the most, and always says it is a crooked way."
"Slave understands!"
Eunuch Hai nodded sensibly, and then pointed to the prison car behind him, "Then, is this servant going to do some business first?"
Eunuch Jin nodded, "If you have nothing to do, let's go with you... We are worried that you won't be used to the three hundred sets of torture instruments in Kunci Palace."
"It's rare that you are so interested! This slave can just learn a few more tricks from behind!"
Eunuch Hai became excited and said that Mr. Jin was a master of lynching, and he could control the situation extremely well. He would often use all three hundred torture instruments and still ensure that the person being tortured would not die.
Let the other party endure endless pain while always maintaining the peak of fear and despair.
This is the highest level of punishment!
You can feast your eyes on it later!
Eunuch Hai immediately waved to the two guards beside the prison car, "Bring this person down! Watch him carefully and don't let him disturb Mr. Jin."
Liang Xiao couldn't wait any longer. He rushed over quickly, scolded the jailers, and wanted to take Xu Xingmu into Kunci Palace with his own hands... What a piece of shit! Three hundred sets of torture can't cure your mouth?
Eunuch Jin glanced at Liang Xiao, his eyebrows that were even more beautiful than a woman's were slightly raised, and he said, "Xiao Haizi, it seems that the person detained today has a big problem with Wu Linghou's son. Why? , which rich man accidentally stole his woman? But you must take your time and find out the details of the other party before sending him to Kunci Palace. If you offend someone you shouldn't offend, our family will not give you a clean slate. butt."
"Don't worry, I've already asked him clearly. Those people who shouldn't be offended are not the same as this person. He's just a wild boy who came from a remote country."
Eunuch Hai smiled and said, "Kill him and there won't be any disturbance in Tai'an City."
"That's good."
Eunuch Jin began to roll up his sleeves, "Do you think we should bleed first or dig out the eyes first? In our opinion, it is better to dig out the eyes first. When a person cannot see anything, he will be helpless in the darkness of nothingness. If he feels a sense of security, his mood will naturally become very irritable, and if he is tortured again, it will make him struggle more violently... Haha, punishment, the more the prisoner struggles, the more excited we are!"
Eunuch Hai applauded, "It has to be you, Master Jin. You are indeed a professional. You will take the lead later and let the slaves open their eyes."
At this time, Liang Xiao had already brought the person over, almost pushing him forward, cursing and throwing some punches in between.
Eunuch Hai snorted coldly, and glared at Xu Xingmu who was close to him. Seeing that Xu Xingmu was about to die, he smiled even more openly. When he was puzzled, he became furious, "Master Jin, it's this kid! Look, what's going on here?" You dare to be crazy in front of me! According to my opinion, three hundred sets of torture instruments are not enough, at least..."
Halfway through his words, he stopped abruptly.
Eunuch Hai frowned because he found that Eunuch Jin suddenly stopped rolling up his sleeves.
The expression on his face changed from full of anticipation and excitement to intense uneasiness and shock.
what happened?
"Master Jin, what's wrong with you?"
Eunuch Hai hadn't realized the seriousness of the matter yet. Seeing the impatience in Liang Xiao's expression, he quickly urged and asked, "How about we bring the people in first?"
Eunuch Jin did not respond. Instead, he slowly turned his head and stared at him with an idiotic look. After half a breath, he asked, "Do you know who he is?"
Eunuch Hai was stared at so hard that he felt a little bad.
But he still forced a smile and said, "Master Jin, don't scare this slave. Isn't it the seed you left outside before entering the palace?"
"If you can say this, our family thinks you are quite talented."
Eunuch Jin put down his sleeves, stepped forward and pushed away the astonished Liang Xiao, pointed at Xu Xingmu and introduced, "I tell you, his name is Xu Xingmu! Xiao Haizi, you must have heard Cao Xianxian talk about it a lot these days. Is this the name?”
While speaking, he exerted force with one hand, and the shackles on Xu Xingmu's neck and feet were ripped off.
"Eunuch Jin, I haven't seen you for a few days, but you still look like you!"
Xu Xingmu's long-suppressed mood was finally released. He cupped his hands and stood up appropriately, "I made you laugh when I just entered the capital. Feng Lin is ashamed!"
Eunuch Jin smiled and said, "It's our family that feels ashamed. We almost had you tortured on the territory of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. If this spreads out, will the important officials in the court scold our family to death?"
As soon as these words were said, the two of them looked at each other and smiled, chatting like long-time friends.
When Liang Xiao saw this scene, his face turned livid and his teeth clenched. The two guards from the Military and Horse Division were even more frightened and their legs were already swaying.
…
"Xu Xingmu!"
Eunuch Hai was shocked, "That poetic genius who is rumored to be rare to see in a hundred years?"
On that day, downstairs during the pilgrimage, a unique poem from a small county in Taoyuan thousands of miles away moved the capital.
The mysterious poetic genius also used this wonderful poem to become famous all over the world overnight.
As a celebrity in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, Eunuch Hai has his own way of controlling the trends inside and outside the court.
He knew very well that after asking the poem that day, Master Sword Master had established the inheritance of swordsmanship and regarded Xu Xingmu as the next Lord of the North.
His Majesty also issued a decree soon, granting him high-ranking officials generous salaries and half-life glory.
The six ministers of the Great Xia Dynasty gathered in Taoyuan County, and the Master Longhushan and the Pope also rushed to the scene. Even Eunuch Cao, who had the most say in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, could not bear the loneliness and sent a group of young eunuchs to go far away. The purpose of traveling thousands of miles is naturally to win Xu Xingmu under his command.
And such a poetic genius who is favored by countless big bosses is now being detained by himself in a prison car and is about to be sent to Kunci Palace to undergo three hundred kinds of torture!
this......
Not to mention what the other big shots in the court would think, if Eunuch Cao from the Ministry of Internal Affairs knew about this, I'm afraid he wouldn't let himself see the sun tomorrow!
Eunuch Hai felt deep despair, his mouth opened wide, his face full of fear and confusion.
Sudden! He glared at Liang Xiao and asked in a trembling voice, "You! Why didn't you tell our family earlier that he is Xu Xingmu?"
Liang Xiao frowned, "Uncle Hai, what you said makes no sense. I didn't tell you. It's obviously because you don't want to hear it... Besides, what if he is Xu Xingmu? A man who can write poems Isn’t the corrupt scholar also a corrupt scholar? Why are you all so afraid of him?"
"What do you know?"
Eunuch Hai was about to reprimand Eunuch Jin, but Eunuch Jin raised his right hand without any warning, raised it high in the air, gathered momentum for a moment, and then fell down at an extremely fast speed, giving Eunuch Hai a cruel slap.
This slap was quite polite. It brought together 20% of Eunuch Jin's boyish skills, and slapped Eunuch Hai directly until he fell asleep.
"Here, drag him into Kunci Palace. We will ask Eunuch Cao to come over and talk to him slowly in the evening."
Eunuch Jin gave an order, and the accompanying young eunuch immediately lifted Eunuch Hai and threw him into Kunci Palace. Three hundred instruments of torture were scattered everywhere, all staring at him in the darkness.
Liang Xiao took half a step back with a cold face, "Uncle Hai, you dare to hit me. Do you really think you don't take the Marquis Mansion seriously?"
"No matter how long Wu Linghou's hands are, he shouldn't be able to reach our house of internal affairs, right?"
Eunuch Jin said, "Little Marquis, please listen to our family's advice. Young people should not be too arrogant. If something happens to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, even the Marquis will not be able to protect you."
Liang Xiao glared at Eunuch Jin, "Are you threatening me?"
"Not a threat, but advice!"
Eunuch Jin wanted to preach, and a green light flashed outside the courtyard gate. Lin Qing dragged Wang Zhihuan and the two ministers here.
"Fenglin!"
"Xu Xiaoyou!"
The three bosses looked grave and moved forward quickly. They pulled Xu Xingmu and looked him up and down. They saw that although he was in a mess and there were scars on his face, fortunately, he had a long aura and a calm expression, so he seemed to be fine.
"It's all my fault that I came a little late!"
Jiang Bowang, the Minister of Personnel, held Xu Xingmu's hand and kept it from letting go, "Xu Xiaoyou, you are new to the capital and are not familiar with the place. You must not run around again! You will go to my house to stay later. There will be all the officials." The Ministry is supporting you, but I don’t believe anyone else dares to cause trouble for you!”
Speaking of this, he glanced at Liang Xiao casually, with a look of contempt deep in his pupils.
He has always been disdainful of such low-life dandies.
Why did Wu Linghou, who had a great reputation all his life, give birth to such a scum son?
"It's better to stay at my house!"
Xu Meng, Minister of the Ministry of War, grabbed Xu Xingmu's other hand and suddenly sighed, "I must bear the responsibility for Xu Xiaoyou being detained by the Ministry of War. Please give me a chance to make amends and atone for my sins!"
The two ministers were tugging at each other, secretly competing with each other, and their attitudes were a little too enthusiastic.
Wang Zhihuan smiled coldly, took out the imperial edict from his arms, and said calmly, "Could it be that you two adults want to poach me?"
As soon as the old bachelor took action and suppressed by the imperial decree, the two ministers had no choice but to let go of their hands despite their reluctance.
"I'm sorry, my lords."
Xu Xingmu lowered his head humbly, "Thank you for your love!"
"It doesn't matter!"
Jiang Boyang patted Xu Xingmu on the shoulder, "All officials in the imperial court have the opportunity to be transferred every year. If you are not satisfied with your stay in the Hanlin Academy, just tell me that this is what the Ministry of Personnel is responsible for!"
"No need to worry, Lord Shangshu!"
Wang Zhihuan pulled Xu Xingmu over and sneered, "Since the establishment of the Hanlin Academy, only those who have been dismissed from office have never been heard of. I have never heard of anyone taking the initiative to leave. If you really want to work with Feng Lin, why don't you sack your post as Minister and come to me?" The Hanlin Academy is ready."
"Haha, Mr. Wang just loves to joke."
Jiang Boyang chuckled, seemingly calm and gentle, but his eyes rolled back... a shameless old thief! I'll let you be proud for a while, I will snatch you away sooner or later!
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Eunuch Jin hurried over to smooth things over.
This is his territory, and everyone has to give him face.
The group of people chatted and laughed quickly, completely ignoring Liang Xiao.
The furious young Marquis couldn't understand what the charm of this damn piece of shit was. How could he have so many important officials of the imperial court stand up for him!
Even Jin Xiaohua, a gelded dog, stood by him!
At this moment, the situation at the scene was very clear... Eunuch Hai could not protect himself. Xu Xingmu had someone to support him. Although Liang Xiao was the young marquis, he was isolated and helpless at the moment. It was impossible to cause trouble for Xu Xingmu.
He could only take a step forward and go back to shake people up and regain the situation.
When necessary, he would even ask his father to take action himself.
Regardless of whether you are Jiang Bowang or Jin Xiaohua, when Wu Linghou is in front of you, you have to stand back a little!
Thinking of this, Liang Xiao snorted and was about to leave, but Xu Xingmu, who was busy socializing, suddenly shouted, "What? You want to run away? I haven't seen the three hundred tortures in Kunci Palace yet!"
