Afraid that she wouldn't believe it, Xiao Chen specially took out the coupon from his arms.
"Look, it's stamped with the princess's exclusive seal. Although you and I want to help you, there's nothing we can do."
Yun Yan'er was unconvinced: "Didn't you say something nice for me?"
"Of course I said it, but..." Xiao Chen hesitated, but Yun Yan'er became anxious: "But what!"
"I almost praise you to the sky. You are gentle and beautiful. I have spent almost all my life learning on you. But women are very jealous."
"The more I praised you, the more unconvinced the princess became. She even had a grudge and got a talented person for you."
"My arms can't twist my thighs, so there's nothing I can do about it."
Such calm words almost made Yun Yaner shut herself down on the spot.
Does this mean that if you don't let Xiao Chen say nice things, you will have a chance to gain a higher status?
You really shot yourself in the foot!
Although she was unwilling to do so, Yun Yan'er could only swallow the bad breath and try to calm down her mood.
After all, Xiao Chen was a person valued by the emperor. She wanted to gain a firm foothold in the harem, so she was counting on him to put in a good word for her.
Xiao Chen advised: "Don't be too discouraged. If you want to gain a firm foothold in the harem, it mainly depends on whether His Majesty favors you."
"Don't worry, I will put in a nice word for you if I get the chance. I won't let your sacrifice be in vain."
Yun Yan'er nodded slightly, but she didn't know if it was because of an illusion, but she seemed to hear a bit of sarcasm in her words.
But he still responded with a smile: "Then there is Governor Lao Xiao. Yan'er will leave first."
The moment she turned around, the smile in her eyes instantly disappeared like smoke.
The hazy and clear eyes instantly penetrated into the deep pool, making people a little confused.
I heard that Xiao Chen was strategic and intelligent, and was highly valued by the emperor. How could he be so ignorant and praise her beauty in front of the princess?
Was it an unintentional act or was it intentional?
Is he really that kind of womanizer?
Yun Yan'er couldn't figure it out. If so, Xiao Chen should be more attentive to her and feel more guilty.
But just now, she didn't catch any unnecessary expression in the other party's expression.
It was as if he didn't care at all whether he could take advantage of himself.
Could it be that Ziying's news is wrong and that Xiao Chen is not as greedy and lustful as the rumors say?
However, Ziying is the top spy in the Liangguo intelligence network, so how could such a mistake happen...
She couldn't figure it out, and she had already arrived at the little eunuch's side while her thoughts were racing. "Excuse me, father-in-law, please continue to lead the way. Please take me back to my residence."
Watching their figures gradually disappearing one after another, the fog in Xiao Chen's heart became even thicker.
This woman is quite tolerant. She doesn't have the psychological quality that an ordinary daughter's family can cultivate.
"Huh, no matter who you are, there is no secret that I can't dig out!"
Half an hour later, all the show girls had been placed.
Xiao Chen waved to Wei Zhongxian, and he trotted over, "Sir, what are your orders?"
"Now that the beautiful ladies have officially entered the harem, they must be assigned corresponding maids and eunuchs."
"Send some people to re-register all the maids and eunuchs in the palace, and compile a list for me."
Although Wei Zhongxian is a little narrow-minded and content with having fun, he still works very efficiently.
In just half a day, Wei Zhongxian sent a list several meters long.
"Sir, we have divided them according to gender, age, name, and the tasks they are responsible for. Please take a look."
It is indeed very detailed, and it is clear at a glance who has entered the palace with what identity and how many years.
Xiao Chen nodded with satisfaction, lying on the chair and reading slowly.
But his eyes fell on a more eye-catching number.
"A sixty-year-old eunuch?"
He glanced at the attentive Wei Zhongxian next to him: "Are you sure you're not mistaken? Eunuchs in the palace can get a chance to leave the palace every twenty years."
"How can there be such an old person in Fukuzushi?"
It is not that there are no old eunuchs in the palace, but they all have status and status, and they are the best among the eunuchs.
Some are unwilling to leave the palace, while others have to serve for life and are not allowed to leave the palace.
Kefu Sushi is a place that takes care of shit and urine, and is responsible for collecting night fragrance and pouring it out.
For such a small position with dirty and tiring work, the average young eunuch would work for twenty years, receive a subsidy after meeting the conditions for leaving the palace, and then disappear long ago.
Even if they don't want to leave, their eunuchs and maids with no status will be forcibly sent out of the palace when they reach the age of forty.
A new batch of maids and eunuchs are replaced in the palace every year. If the old ones don't go and the new ones don't come, they are too old to do the work.
Therefore, the existence of this old eunuch in the palace is really strange.
Wei Zhongxian glanced at the fold and quickly responded with a smile: "Sir, the statistics are correct. This is a sixty-year-old old eunuch who is still working at Fu Sushi."
"Speaking of this person, he actually has a rather special status."
According to Wei Zhongxian, this man was originally a homeless man, and he only entered the palace in his fifties.
When the emperor was on patrol before, this old eunuch saved Chen Jin by chance, and he was considered a meritorious person.
He was not very smart, so Chen Jin, out of gratitude, specifically asked Chu Yanwu to allow the old eunuch to work in the palace until he died of old age, and to give him a place to stay.
Unexpectedly, a heartless villain like Chen Jin could actually repay his kindness?
Xiao Chen rubbed his chin thoughtfully, and suddenly stood up like a carp: "Let's go!"
"Since he is the benefactor of success, I naturally want to pay him a visit!"
Wei Zhongxian was at a loss. What could an old eunuch with a bad mind be worth visiting?
Could it be that he wanted to use it to please Chen Jin?
Then why not just pack some generous gifts and send them to Chen Jin!
Although he didn't understand, Wei Zhongxian still followed him to Fu Sushi.
This place usually doesn't have many noble people coming here, and it stinks so bad that there are excrement buckets everywhere.
Wei Zhongxian covered his nose in disgust, but Xiao Chen wandered around, scanning everyone.
The sixty-year-old man should be someone he could recognize at a glance, but Xiao Chen found nothing.
"At this point in time, Fukuzushi doesn't seem to have much to do except cleaning the excrement buckets, right?"
Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, "Why can't I find anyone?"
Wei Zhongxian quickly pursed his lips and reminded him vaguely: "Sir, that happened many years ago, and Chen Jin didn't care about him much."
"At that time, the late emperor was still there, and Chen Jin was just a young eunuch in the East Palace. He showed some affection and righteousness in front of the late emperor and the prince, but things are different now..."
I was afraid that Xiao Chen really wanted to please Chen Jin, so he came to the old eunuch to show his courtesy.
Wei Zhongxian gave another warning: "Sir, it's better not to mention this matter in front of Eunuch Chen. If you flatter me wrongly, the gain will outweigh the loss."
