He thought that by relegating Lin San to the warehouse to inspect and clean up supplies, he would be out of sight and out of mind. He didn't expect that in just a few days, the guy would make so many little tricks.
The eunuch in charge of the Li Supervisor is Wang Tigan, but he only follows his orders, so Lin San is always under his control. But just this morning, the Empress sent someone to tell the Li Supervisor that she thought the eunuch Lin San was good, eloquent, and quick-footed. , she was missing such a person by her side, and immediately decided to keep him as a servant in Kunning Palace.
No matter how bad the relationship between Zhang Yan and him is, she is still the empress. It is impossible to disobey such an order. In other words, from today on, Lin San is only nominally under the supervision of the Secretary of Ceremony, and his daily work is arranged by Zhang Yan.
Okay, find a new master quietly.
Yes, Xizong is about to die, and Zhang Yan will be a widow from now on. Her life in the palace is getting worse day by day, and Lin San's future ends here. But it's shameless to tell him. I think he is the dignified Admiral of Dongchang, who is known as the nine-thousand-year-old. Wei Zhongxian made a plan for a young eunuch in his early twenties, tsk tsk...
"Not bad, really good. It's only been a few days and it's a big surprise for our family."
Anyone can hear that this is irony.
…
In the afternoon of that day, Lin Yue went to the Shangshan Supervisor to ask for ingredients and prepared to make some more Western desserts for Zhang Yan. He is neither a pastry chef nor a chef, but after living in the film and television world for so long, it is not a problem to make simple Western food, such as bread, cakes, and sandwiches.
The food in the palace is better than outside, but for a modern person, there are still many areas that can be improved.
When he came out of Shangshan Prison with his things, he met seven or eight eunuchs who were deliberately looking for trouble. Seeing that they were quite strong, he thought someone wanted to vent his anger on Wei Zhongxian.
There was nothing to say. Before those people could find an excuse to take action, Lin Yue beat him up. He suffered four fractures and three concussions. After that, he carried the ingredients back to Kunning Palace as if nothing had happened.
A few hours later, a eunuch from the Supervisor of Ceremonies carried the wounded man to Kunning Palace to file a complaint. He encountered a weak and weak nail at Zhang Yan's place, and finally left in despair.
This made many people realize that they still underestimated Eunuch Lin. In just two or three days, the Queen Empress regarded him as a confidant. People wondered how he did it.
How did you do it?
Dealing with ancient women in the same way that men in modern society pursue beautiful girls is not a piece of cake. Not to mention that Eunuch Lin is not ordinary. Not to mention those bug skills, he is also a versatile and capable person. He plays piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Poetry, wine and tea, is there anything he doesn't understand? In terms of conversation and knowledge, not to mention the eunuchs and eunuchs in the palace, even the grand masters in the palace have to kneel when they come.
Zhang Yan could chat with him for five or six hours when she woke up. From being an embroiderer to being an embroiderer, to being an embroiderer in the country, and assisting in government affairs, there was never a time when she couldn't pick up the conversation. In her words, Lin Yue shouldn't be a eunuch in the palace. , With this knowledge, what can I do without food? I have to abuse my body.
Lin Yuexin said, "You think I think about it, but it's not forced by the system."
…
On the eleventh day of the eighth lunar month, Xizong passed away. Lin Yue had a rest that day and was teaching Miao Tong how to make biscuits at home. Someone from the palace called him to come to Kunning Palace quickly.
When he entered the Forbidden City, he found that the palace was already a sea of white.
According to the palace maid, Zhang Yan fainted from crying in the Qianqing Palace, and was then carried back by the eunuchs on duty. She drank half a bowl of porridge for dinner, and finally fell asleep at 3:30 a.m., but she fell asleep not long after. He woke up with a start and couldn't fall asleep again. He kept chanting his name, so the eunuch on duty had no choice but to leave the palace all night in the drizzle and go to the east city to call him.
When I saw Zhang Yan, she was lying on her side on the bed. She looked haggard and her eyes were slightly swollen. She must have been crying.
At the beginning, he sat by the bed and asked about the funeral. After midnight, the maid on duty outside fell asleep due to the influence of [hypnosis], so he simply went to bed, dreaming about something, frowning and twitching. The young lady hugged her and hummed a soft song.
Zhang Yan drowsily called his name several times, and finally fell into a deep sleep. She entered the palace at the age of 15 and spent most of the past seven years in the Chonglou Courtyard. The maids and eunuchs around her were more respectful than close to her. Today the emperor died. How could she survive the thought of living as a widow in the future? Now is a good opportunity to express care and love, not to mention that she is not wary at all. As for whether this is taking advantage of others... is it possible to show her style? To sit back and watch a beautiful and virtuous woman remain a widow for the rest of her life for a foolish king?
The next day, the morning bell rang.
Zhang Yan opened her eyes and saw Lin San waiting by the bed all night, and felt her face feel a little hot.
She had a lot of dreams last night, and they were all nightmares at the beginning, either dreaming about Xizong's face when he died, or dreaming about soaring flames surrounding her, or about Hakka coming with poisoned wine. Lin San's condition improved after she came over. A lot, but she still had a lot of strange dreams. For example, she actually dreamed that she was wrapped by a big snake without clothes. The key was that she was not afraid at all, it felt wonderful. Another example was that she felt very cold, and the chill drove her away. I fell into a warm embrace, and then we were greeted by the crisp chirping of birds and the faint morning light.
What Zhang Yan didn't know was that, aside from the dream about being surrounded by a big snake, what happened after being hugged and slept all night was not an illusion, it actually happened. Because this year's lunar August is much colder than previous lunar Augusts, and yesterday's rain had the smell of autumn all night long, so she covered herself with a blanket, huddled up like a kitten and looked special. It was pitiful, so Eunuch Lin lent her his arms in the spirit of helping others.
"Empress, are you awake?" Lin Yue stretched out his hand and helped her up from the bed.
"Have you been up all night again?"
She knew very well that Lin San should not have been on duty last night. Even if she is a queen, all eunuchs and maids should work hard and give their best, but people's hearts are full of flesh, and she is a virtuous woman. It is naturally impossible to face this situation. Indifferent.
"It is my honor to serve the Queen."
This is flattery, but not flattery, because I hugged her for half the night last night, and even though I didn't do "serious things", I still ate a lot of tofu.
At this moment, there was only the sound of banging outside, and the villain flew into Kunning Palace. As soon as he landed, he shouted there: "I'm starving to death, ah, I'm starving to death."
Xizong passed away, and all the eunuchs and maids in the palace were busy attending to the funeral. How could anyone care about it? How could they not be hungry after not eating all night?
Zhang Yan got up from the bed, and while letting the maids change her clothes, she said: "There are a lot of things going on in the palace these days, and the Qianqing Palace is especially busy. Why don't you take it home and let your wife take care of it for a while? Wait until the emperor is buried before sending him back to the palace."
Lin Yue was not surprised that she made such a decision. After all, General Feitian's favorite cake was "made by his wife."
"I will take good care of you."
"By the way, Concubine Nishinomiya Chun has been suffering from headaches and insomnia. When the emperor was in good spirits the day before yesterday, the concubines went to visit Qianqing Palace. Concubine Chun got the news from somewhere. Knowing that you have a wonderful method to help you sleep, she asked me to borrow it. Just use it. Now that the emperor has passed away, my sisters and I should help each other and tide over the difficulties. You can go to the West Palace tonight, and remember to bring some snacks made by your wife."
"I accept my order." Lin Yuexin said, are you sending your best friend into a tiger's mouth?
After entering the palace, he heard that Queen Zhang Yan, Liang Fei Wang, and Pure Concubine Duan were all beauties who passed eight tests in a row and were finally selected by Zhu Youxiao.
You must know that Zhu Youxiao died at the age of 23. His concubines cannot be too old. From the perspective of modern people, they were all in their prime of youth. Naturally, they were willing to accept such an errand.
Zhang Yan saw that he agreed and said, "It's getting late. You should go home and rest."
"Queen, take care of your body." Lin Yue whispered, "Because it's mine," and led the villain out of Kunning Palace and towards the East City.
…
When he got home, Miao Tong had already gotten up, and with the help of Zhang Ma, he made breakfast and waited for him.
There is no meaty taste, just two plates of green vegetables and a bowl of millet porridge.
During the national mourning period, people in the capital are prohibited from slaughtering and eating meat. For more than half a month, they will have to eat vegetables, steamed buns and dried rice, which is simply a kind of torture for foodies.
When he was on stage, he did not benefit the people and improve their livelihood. After his death, he still caused trouble and tired the people. Lin Yue was also speechless.
He shook his head to get rid of the messy thoughts in his mind, picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of green vegetables. He found that it was hot, and he didn't know how many times it had been taken out of the pot. The key is that Miaotong didn't eat either and kept sitting at the dining table waiting for him.
Because the villain had been here many times and told Miaotong that he would keep it at home for a while, she didn't show too much surprise. She also took the biscuits Lin Yue made yesterday and broke it into pieces and fed it to it.
After breakfast, Lin Yue went to the study. Miao Tong put away the dishes and took them to Zhang Ma to wash. When she came out of the kitchen, she saw Lin Yue coming out of the living room carrying the parrot's legs.
Then he did something she couldn't understand.
What is he going to do? That's the emperor's pet.
