Although Qin Deren behaves very cowardly on weekdays, he is the leader of the Royal Forest Army after all, so there is no doubt about his skill.
Lin Xu narrowed his eyes and avoided Qin Deren's attack.
He dodged while looking for the right moment to take action.
Qin Deren missed with one move and struck with another.
"Uh-huh!"
At this moment, Qin Deren suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.
When he looked down, he found that Lin Xu had penetrated his chest with a sword.
"Pfft!"
Lin Xu pulled out his sword, and blood suddenly spurted out. Qin Deren's eyes widened and he fell to the ground.
"How...how could you...be so powerful?"
Qin Deren's lips trembled and he stretched out his trembling right hand to grab something. Unfortunately, he couldn't grab anything and could only watch the scene in front of him fly away quickly.
Seeing Qin Deren's expression of silence, Lin Xu raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
"This idiot still wants to assassinate His Majesty. What a wishful thinking."
After shaking his head, he picked up the banknotes on the ground and put them in his arms before leaving.
After returning home overnight, he told Zhao Yan the good news. Not to mention how happy Zhao Yan was when he heard it.
"There's no clue left, right?"
Zhao Yan asked worriedly.
"Your Majesty, don't worry. Unless they see me killing Qin Deren with their own eyes, they will never dare to gossip."
As Lin Xu spoke, he took out a few banknotes from his arms and handed them to Zhao Yan, saying: "These are all found by my slaves from Qin Deren. I dare not keep them all for myself, so I will give them all to Your Majesty."
"Hahaha, just keep these things for yourself. Do I still lack these things?"
Zhao Yan said with a hearty smile, of course he knew what Lin Xu meant by doing this.
"Your Majesty, I overheard them saying that they wanted to attack Your Majesty. There seems to be a very powerful person behind this."
"Yes." Zhao Yan nodded with satisfaction, then pondered for a while and said: "I have known about this for a long time, that's why I sent you to kill Qin Deren. I just want to give them a warning, and at the same time let them know. Qin Gong understands."
There was a sinister look in Zhao Yan's eyes: "If he continues to be obsessed with it, I will definitely not be able to spare him!"
Lin Xu nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Then when does Your Majesty plan to deal with Qin Gong?"
"Since he wants to rebel, there is no way I can let him get what he wants."
Zhao Yan said lightly, and then fell into silence.
After a long time, Zhao Yan raised his head, looked at Lin Xu and said, "Just stay in the palace for the next two days and don't go out again. After a while, you can go out and help with some things."
"I obey the order," Lin Xu said solemnly, cupping his fists and cupping his hands.
When Lin Xugang was about to leave, Zhao Yan stopped him.
"etc."
Lin Xu stopped and turned around to look at Zhao Yan.
"I have thought about it. I have been busy with political affairs recently and have neglected a lot of things in the court. Why don't I make you the Chamberlain and Assistant Manager of the Sixth Palace?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lin Xu quickly knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
Zhao Yan nodded: "Okay, go down and get ready. You will officially take office in three days."
"yes."
Lin Xu answered and then retreated.
As soon as he left the palace where the emperor lived, a young eunuch came up to him and whispered in his ear for a long time.
After listening, Lin Xu smiled contemptuously and said, "Okay, I understand, let's go meet that old guy now."
Lin Xu also didn't expect that the little eunuch who was taking care of him would be bullied by an old eunuch when he turned around.
How can such a thing be tolerated?
He immediately went up to seek justice without saying a word.
At this time, the old eunuch had no idea and was still standing in the duty room facing the other eunuchs Yasan and Si.
"Our family has made it clear to you that you still have to have a good attitude in this harem. If you make our family unhappy one day, do you believe that our family will cause trouble for you?"
"Father, what do you mean by this? We are all honest people."
"That's right, please don't accuse us wrongly."
The eunuchs were arguing nonstop. They were all new eunuchs and they didn't understand the rules of the harem yet.
The old eunuch snorted coldly and said: "You bastards, please stop pretending to be in front of me. Don't fool me by thinking that I am old."
"Father-in-law, the slaves really didn't lie to you. You just wronged us." The eunuchs said aggrievedly.
"Haha, have I wronged you?"
The old eunuch sneered and said, "Okay, okay, all of you will kneel here for our family tonight. We will wait here for that little bastard to come back in person."
As the old eunuch spoke, he picked up a chair and sat down to rest.
The eunuchs took one look at the old eunuch and did not dare to say anything anymore. They could only kneel down obediently.
Lin Xu came after a while. Anyway, he has made a lot of achievements now. In three days, he will become the Chamberlain. The official position in his hands is not comparable to those of the eunuchs.
"Hey, isn't this Eunuch Liu? What brought you here?"
Lin Xu pretended to be surprised and said, his tone full of ridicule.
"Hey, how come you, little bastard, have the guts to come back?" Old Eunuch Liu said with a cold snort.
Old eunuch Liu's eyes flickered when he saw Lin Xu, as if he thought of something.
"What's wrong, why did the father-in-law say that?" Lin Xu said, looking at Old Eunuch Liu pretending to be confused.
When Old Eunuch Liu saw this, his eyes rolled around a few times, and he chuckled and said, "Boy, did you let the little eunuch pinch your waist and legs yesterday?"
Lin Xu nodded, he was here specifically to serve him, why did he say such a thing.
"Yes, father-in-law, do you have any objections?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Old Eunuch Liu slapped Lin Xu directly in the face.
But he forgot that Lin Xu was good at martial arts, and he also had the Nine Yang Magic Skill.
So in the next second, Old Eunuch Liu flew out on the spot.
This quadruple nine-yang magic skill is no joke.
Lin Xu pretended to run over and helped the old eunuch up.
"Father, what are you doing? Why do you want to fly back?"
Lin Xu's voice was full of panic, as if he had been greatly frightened.
After Old Eunuch Liu was helped up by Lin Xu, his whole face suddenly became distorted, and he howled in pain.
"How dare you hurt me, little beast!"
Lin Xu looked frightened: "No, father-in-law, I didn't hit you. You obviously flew out by yourself, how could I touch you?"
"I……"
Old eunuch Liu was choked by Lin Xu and became speechless, but he still glared at Lin Xu.
Lin Xu shrugged his shoulders and said: "Father, there are so many people watching the scene. I really didn't do anything, my slave. It was you who flew out by yourself."
