Jiang Shuyue was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth for a long time.
...Worry evil!
Half of Lin Miaoshou's body was buried in the ground, and he was sent to the palace to be castrated. Could he have entrusted his life to the clean room? !
"Uncle Lin's life was too bitter. He finally regained his eyesight, but he was castrated before he could marry a wife to continue the family life."
Seeing Jiang Shuyue's pity expression, Nangong Zeyue couldn't help laughing.
"Are you smiling too much?"
"Miss Jiang, you, you may have misunderstood. Uncle Shi entered the palace and became a swordsman who cleans the house. He was not castrated."
Then Nangong Zeyue told how Lin Miaoshou bribed the stewards in the palace, and how he boasted about his excellent cleaning skills.
The palace steward made an exception and allowed him to work as a knifemaker in the clean room.
"Aren't swordsmiths just eunuchs? They all have to go to the Shenxing Department to purify themselves?"
Jiang Shuyue knew a little bit about some things in the palace.
Nangong Zeyue lifted her robe and sat down and said: "The palace is no longer what it used to be. In the past, this matter needed to be approved by the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But now it is different. The emperor indulges in wine and meat all day long, and the queen's thoughts are all about fighting for favor. went."
Nangongze clicked his tongue and shook his head, "The management in the palace is in chaos. The stewards of each palace are busy making money. Chaos abounds. Wanling's energy is about to be exhausted."
Knowing that Lin Miao was fine, Jiang Shuyue asked, "Uncle Lin tried his best to sneak into the palace. What is he going to do?"
If he wants to seek revenge from the Wei family, wouldn't it be more convenient not to enter the palace?
Nangong Zeyue spread her hands, "I don't know either. I heard from my senior brother that his old man comes out of the palace to get medicinal materials every few days. I have left a message for my uncle. He will know to come to us as soon as he leaves the palace."
Jiang Shuyue's eyes lit up, "Uncle Lin's goal is Queen Wan!"
For Xiao Jingzhao, this is a divine assist!
Jiang Shuyue was looking forward to seeing Lin Miaoshou soon and wanted to know what kind of chess he would play in the palace.
Nangong Zeyue chatted with Jiang Shuyue for a while before going back to the house to rest.
Feeling sleepy, Jiang Shuyue yawned, closed the door and window and put away the plan.
At this time, there was a sound of knocking on the window lattice outside the window, "Master, the lights of Zhen Mansion are brightly lit. My subordinates found out that the real master still lives in Guixiang Back Street."
Jiang Shuyue opened a window and saw Gao Mu standing outside the window.
I have to admit that the people trained by Xiao Jingzhao are really good at it.
She asked Gao Mu to inquire tomorrow. Unexpectedly, Gao Mu's execution ability was so amazing that he could find out clearly so quickly.
"Thank you for your hard work. You and Cangyun can rest peacefully and go find Fang Yazi tomorrow."
Gao Mu grinned at Jiang Shuyue, held his hands respectfully and said, "No, my subordinates, it's not hard work."
It was better to follow the girl. The girl was friendly and kind, just like family members. The stern Gao Mu retreated with warmth in his heart.
Jiang Shuyue: "..." A good guard must have chicken legs.
…
In the palace.
Outside the clean room, the shadows of the trees were swaying. A few moths were desperately hitting the chrysanthemum palace lantern under the eaves. Two young eunuchs were standing under the eaves holding lanterns.
At this time, a shrill scream came from the room. The shrill scream was sharp and harsh, as if someone was being torn apart. The despair and whine made people feel chilly.
The scream was like a flash of lightning in the night sky, causing the two young eunuchs under the eaves to tremble.
I remember that they had also experienced this tragic night.
After a while, a groaning sound came from the room.
The tall little eunuch gently nudged the short little eunuch with his elbow and said, "This is done, you go in and take a look."
The short eunuch raised his head and glanced at the corridor beside the palace wall, "The person in charge will definitely not come now. When the knife maker calls us, it won't be too late for us to go in and carry the person."
In the past, there were several people working in the cleansing room. Since the arrival of the knife maker, he has done all the dirty work. Gradually, the other people have learned to be lazy and send those who want to cleanse themselves into the cleansing room. Throw it away and leave.
After the knifemaker finished, he gave the earthen jar containing the eggs to the eunuch on duty for inspection. The eunuch on duty carried the person into the next room. Whether he was alive or dead was none of their business.
The new knifemaker really lived up to his reputation, and the moans in the room gradually weakened.
The door of the clean room was closed, and inside the room, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old was lying on a wooden board.
The lower body was bloody and bloody, and under the dim light, it was hard to tell whether the thing was still there.
Lin Miaoshou glanced at the window warily, then picked up a piece of cotton cloth and wiped his hands.
He leaned over and said in the boy's ear: "Remember to take the medicine every month. Once you leave the palace, you only need to stop taking the medicine for half a year and you will regain your virility as a man."
The young man's eyes were filled with gratitude. He lowered his voice and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "My lord, Xu An will never forget your kindness. If you can use me in the future, please give me your instructions."
"The palace is a cannibalistic place. You have to protect yourself. With your words, it's worth it for me to risk beheading to save you as a man."
Lin Miaoshou said and helped the young man up, turned around and handed the earthen jar to the young man, and warned: "Hold it, the weather will stink tomorrow, no one will pick it out and take a closer look, calm down, don't Reveal your flaws."
This was a little mouse that he finally caught in the garden. He peeled off the skin, removed the head and tail, took out the internal organs, and then used cotton thread to sew it into two meatballs without threads.
The imperial palace of Wanling Kingdom only removes the eggs of children and grandchildren. Only Lin's skillful hands can do this concealed thing.
"Here, we can carry him out."
The two little eunuchs outside heard the shouts in the room, hung their palace lanterns on the wall, and walked towards the room one after another.
The room was filled with the smell of blood. The boy was sweating profusely, and the hem of his clothes was not covered up. The blood stained his entire thigh.
He gingerly raised the earthen pot in his hand.
"Two father-in-laws, please take a look." The voice was weak, as if he was about to die in the next moment.
The tall little eunuch glanced between the young man's legs, and saw that the flesh and blood were bloody and shocking. He nodded slightly to the short little eunuch.
The short eunuch opened the jar and took a quick look at the bloody thing inside.
Holding back his nausea, he nodded towards the tall eunuch.
Seeing the person being carried away, Lin Miaoshou walked outside the house.
Back at his residence, Lin Miaoshou took a shower and changed clothes, then went to the next door with a bottle of wine.
In the next room, several eunuchs were already a little drunk.
"Come here, Craftsman Lin, you have worked hard tonight. These are the food and wine taken from the imperial dining table. Xiao Liuzi specially brought them to honor our family. I have left half a roasted pigeon here for you." He asked Lin Miaoshou. Eunuch Lu, who lived in the same house, raised the wine glass in his hand unsteadily.
Lin Miaoshou changed his usual free and easy attitude, bowed humbly and raised the jug in his hand, "Thank you, Eunuch Lu, for taking care of me. I have a jug of good wine here for you all."
Eunuch Lu didn't forget to ask a more serious question, "That boy is already fifteen years old, is he still doing a clean job?"
