"Father..."
"What? Do you still have any objections? Do you have to find a fake eunuch in my harem before you give up? Or do you also want to control my harem?" Xia Jiuyuan interrupted Xia Xingbang with wide eyes. .
Xia Xingbang knelt on the ground and shouted, "I don't dare!"
"If you have nothing to do, just retreat from the court." Xia Jiuyuan seemed a little tired and said.
After leaving the court, Lu Qian did not stay much.
After returning to the Ancestral Temple, he told Tong Yao that no one who came to see him would see him.
He needs to figure this out.
This thing is too strange.
Gao Weixin had no reason to help him.
But he just did it?
Lu Qian was now afraid that this was the emperor's order.
If this is really the case, then this emperor is too terrible.
Just when Lu Qian was puzzled, there was a knock on the door.
Lu Qian said a little irritably, "Didn't I say that no one should disturb me?"
The door of the house was pushed open with a response, and a familiar voice came from outside the door.
"Eunuch Lu, you really have a bad temper."
The person at the door was Eunuch Gao, Gao Weixin.
Lu Qian quickly stood up and said, "Master Manager, why are you here?"
Gao Weixin didn't answer. After entering the room, he looked around Lu Qian's room.
Lu Qian stepped forward and said, "Thank you, Mr. Manager, for your noble hand today. I will definitely remember your life-saving grace."
Upon seeing this, Gao Weixin turned to look at Lu Qian and sneered, "Do you think I'm helping you?"
Lu Qian looked at Gao Weixin in confusion.
Gao Weixin sat down minding his own business.
He poured him a cup of tea from the teapot on the table without ceremony.
After taking a sip, he tasted it carefully and asked
"The reason why you have the courage not to leave is because you are completely sure that even if His Majesty knows the identity of your fake eunuch, you can still save your life?"
Lu Qian nodded without denying it.
Gao Weixin couldn't help but show a hint of appreciation for Lu Qian's honesty.
"So, I'm not helping you! I'm helping His Majesty. If I guess correctly, the master behind Liu Shangshu and the eldest prince is you."
Lu Qian did not deny it.
Gao Weixin continued, "You must have guessed it. Your Majesty wants to use this opportunity to suppress the Huo family. Therefore, from some perspective, I need to help His Majesty and make the Huo family suffer." . And the prerequisite for all this is that you must be a true eunuch!"
After Lu Qian heard this, he suddenly felt enlightened.
Everything went pretty much as he thought.
"Aren't you afraid that His Majesty will blame you if he finds out?"
Gao Weixin smiled and replied, "You still don't understand His Majesty. If His Majesty knows that you are a fake eunuch! No matter what you do, you are so important to Daxia! You will only die."
"I have seen your ability, whether it is a salt refinery or the issuance of national debt. Your existence now has more advantages than disadvantages! Daxia needs you now, so I help you! Of course, my help is not without conditions. "
Lu Qian felt relieved after seeing Gao Weixin say this.
He is not afraid of Gao Weixin's conditions, but he is afraid of Gao Weixin's unconditional help.
"Eunuch Gao, you said..." Lu Qian said with a smile.
Gao Weixin was a little surprised by Lu Qian's attitude, but he still said, "That is to secretly help the eighteenth prince and help him win the crown prince's position."
"Eighteenth Prince? Is he the prince who begged for me today?" Lu Qian said to Gao Weixin in surprise.
"Eunuch Lu is indeed a smart man!" Gao Weixin said.
"Okay, I promise you!" Lu Qian agreed without saying a word.
Gao Weixin asked Lu Qian in surprise, "Don't you want to know why?"
Lu Qian smiled bitterly and said, "My lord, my hands and eyes are all in the palace! You should know... I don't actually have any ambitions. The people who helped Jingyang Palace in the first place were just because they wanted to find a backer... From then on... Judging from what happened today, this backer is not reliable. And the steward is obviously a better backer, so it makes no difference to me who I choose to be the crown prince!"
Gao Weixin did not deny it, and said sternly, "It's comfortable to talk to smart people! You still want to support the eldest prince on the surface, but I want it secretly, do you understand?"
Although Lu Qian was curious about the relationship between Gao Weixin and the eighteenth prince.
However, he knew very well that sometimes knowing too much was not a good thing.
Seeing Lu Qian's readily agreed, Gao Weixin continued, "I'll tell you the truth! If you do no harm to His Majesty or to Daxia, no matter what you do in the harem, I can naturally protect you and keep you here." There is no danger in the harem! If you dare to harm Daxia or His Majesty, I will eradicate you as soon as possible!"
After listening to Gao Weixin's domineering speech, Lu Qian felt secretly happy because he had a reliable backer.
He quickly said, "Eunuch Gao, don't worry, I just want to be a eunuch quietly."
"So much the better!"
Gao Weixin said as he stood up and prepared to leave.
Seeing that he was about to leave, Lu Qian asked curiously, "Master Manager, can I ask you something?"
"You want to ask me how to persuade Hoku? Like you, he has a fatal handle in my hand." Gao Weixin said mysteriously.
Follow him to the gate of Taimiao Temple
Gao Weixin suddenly thought of something and asked Lu Qian. "By the way, how did you escape my inspection?"
Lu Qian looked embarrassed and said, "If I said that I have lost my memory...I can't remember the past, would you believe it?"
Gao Weixin nodded and left without saying anything.
Lu Qian couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
I thought Eunuch Gao would know something, but from his expression, he didn't seem to know.
The person who brought him into the palace in the first place was quite a strange person.
After seeing Gao Weixin off, he couldn't be happier.
What he just said was very clear, as long as it does not harm Daxia and the emperor. He can do whatever he wants in the harem...
"Sir, what makes you so happy?" Tong Yao stepped forward and asked after seeing Lu Qian coming back with a smile on his face.
Lu Qian looked at Tong Yao's red face and that devilish figure, and immediately became interested.
The past two days have made him extremely nervous.
"Of course it's a good thing! Come... Sir, I have a gift for you." Lu Qian said as he took out a prepared wooden box.
This was something he had prepared before, and it contained the latest bra he had designed before. It was also delayed due to the successive events in the past few days.
He just wanted Tong Yao to wear this bra to take a bath with him. Wouldn't it be a great thing in the world?
"Sir...what is this?"
"Have you heard of bras?" Lu Qian said.
After hearing this, Tong Yao said with surprise and expectation, "Is it the confidant bra that is popular in Kyoto and can only be worn by the female relatives of dignitaries?"
The best emperor master
