My father is Emperor Wu of Han, how can I be different from him?

Chapter 109 Be Careful or I'll Dig Out Your Eyes
Jin Midi acted decisively and left as soon as he said he would. After a slight creaking sound, his figure disappeared.

As soon as he left, several figures entered the courtyard. In the same closed room, a muffled voice rang out: "Greetings, Jia Ling!"

There is no way of knowing what was said in the house afterwards.

When it gets dark.

The inconspicuous house was empty, and the participants dispersed in all directions of Chang'an City.

One of them deliberately walked around in a long circle, turning left and right, and finally walked back to the vicinity of West Market. He then rushed into the lobby of a restaurant, panting.

"Hoo! Shopkeeper, I have finished my family affairs!"

"Okay, come on, help me. We have a lot of customers right now, so I'll pay you half a day's wages today."

"okay!"

The waiter who had taken a day off was overjoyed and hurried to the kitchen to help. There was only one restaurant with such a hot business near the West Market, [Chunfenglou]...

As summer approaches, it gets dark later.

All the shops in Chang'an city are rushing to take advantage of the last bit of light, trying to make as much money as possible, and business is often best just before curfew.

The first month of summer is gradually passing, and the summer heat is arriving as expected.

Chang'an has four distinct seasons, which makes it convenient for enjoying the snow and flowers. Unfortunately, it is really cold in winter and really hot in summer.

It's hot……

"Oh! Madam, you must take care of yourself. You can't use this ice mirror too much, or you may hurt your body!" The eunuch shuddered as soon as he entered Changning Palace.

People all over the world criticize eunuchs for being sinister and gloomy, and most of what they say is true. Just look at this situation: where the eunuchs feel the place is cold, Li Ji feels it is hot.

Next to the couch.

Two palace maids held round fans and fanned the air slowly. Li Ji's gauze skirt was draped over her silk dress, and through her silk clothes, her fair skin was faintly visible...

When the eunuch saw this scene, he immediately lowered his head and stared at the ground, still smiling, as if he was flattering the ground:
"Your Majesty has been busy with government affairs these days and has no time to come to Changning Palace. I am worried that Madam will be worried, so I asked this servant to go there."

"I have given you some fine silk as a reward, as well as some rare items offered by the King of Zhao. Your Majesty thinks it is a happy occasion, so I sent them to you..."

"Ah."

Li Ji made a sound from her nose and interrupted, "Put it aside. I'll take a look."

What is a bad temper?
This is!
The eunuch heard the displeasure and hurriedly smiled apologetically, still facing the floor, "Well, His Majesty loves the lady the most, and he is really busy with government affairs."

At this moment, if Li Ji gave the old eunuch some benefits, Li Ji's little temper and resentment would be perfectly conveyed to the emperor's ears.

Then, wouldn’t it be more likely that the emperor would visit Changning Palace?

just.

The old eunuch was hinting at something, but Li Ji didn't understand because of the hot weather or her slow mind, or she understood but pretended to be confused, and said:
"What do you mean?"

Well, that’s boring!

The eunuch was disappointed, but his professional ethics made him keep smiling. Li Ji also kept talking:

"I heard that Your Majesty went to the Pepper Palace a few days ago. You are so busy with government affairs that you can only go to the Queen's place. Why don't you have time to come to me?"

She was still playing her little trick of resentment, but the eunuch who didn't get the "meaning" no longer wanted to play with her.

"You have a grudge in your boudoir, go and tell His Majesty yourself!" The old eunuch secretly said in his heart: "You think you can compare with the Queen?"

"Can you compare to the Queen's handwriting?"

She complained in her heart, but smiled bitterly: "Alas, how dare we, as servants, interfere in these matters? Your Majesty has delivered the reward, and I will take my leave."

Done.

The old eunuch hunched his body and moved out step by step.

"Hmph." Li Ji's cold snort sounded in the hall, "Old man, you are so slippery..."

outside the temple.

As soon as he left the hall, the eunuch felt relaxed all over, not because he was away from the "boring" Li Ji, but simply because the temperature had risen.

Of course.

Li Ji's "what does it mean" still made the old eunuch a little unhappy, but he didn't show it at all. When he walked outside Changning Palace, he was always friendly to everyone he met.

until.

As he was about to leave the ceremonial gate, the eunuch suddenly heard a scolding voice from the corner, "Who told you to come and go freely in Li Ji's bedroom? Do you have any manners?"

"I……"

"What do you mean by 'you'? If I see you enter the bedroom again, I'll dig out your eyes!"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

The eunuch walked while listening, without stopping, but just glanced at the source of the sound out of the corner of his eye.

After leaving the Changning Palace and walking onto the palace road, the eunuch asked in a shrill voice: "The two just now, one is a female official of the Changning Palace, and the other is..."

The eunuchs who can follow the eunuch commander must have good eyesight even if they don't have any other skills. Not only the old eunuchs took a look at him before, but the young eunuchs also took a look.

"Reply to godfather."

A Zhonghuangmen stepped forward and whispered, "It's the eunuch who sweeps the courtyard of Changning Palace."

"Oh." The eunuch nodded and continued walking towards Chengming Palace.

But walking.

He suddenly remembered the vague scene in the hall earlier, frowned slightly, and asked again: "Is he castrated?"

"This……"

Zhong Huangmen looked embarrassed, "My son doesn't know whether he has been castrated or not."

Upon hearing this, the eunuch's face darkened and he glanced sideways. The middle eunuch shuddered and said hurriedly, "Son, go check it out right away!"

The eunuchs in the palace were all registered, their faces were remembered, and their corresponding positions were known. One only needed to flip through the files to find out...

and so.

When the eunuch Ling walked slowly to the front of Chengming Palace, he had already learned the information he wanted to know.

Then, the old eunuch's heart suddenly felt as cold as a lump of ice on this hot summer day!

To die!

His Majesty asked him to keep an eye on every little movement in the harem. Now that something has gone terribly wrong, isn't it going to cost our lives?!

"what happened?"

In Chengming Palace, the emperor didn't raise his head. He just heard the other party's footsteps and realized something was wrong. "Why are you hesitating? What's wrong with you saying it?"

"Is Li Ji being irritable, or does she have a complaint?"

It has to be said that Liu Che knew his little woman very well, and he also knew the eunuch who had been with him for more than ten years.

"Uh……"

The eunuch hesitated for only a moment, and Liu Che raised his head from the imperial desk and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why, is she dissatisfied with something else?"

“Your Majesty, neither is that true.”

Seeing that the old eunuch was still hesitating, Liu Che's casual demeanor turned into a dignified one, "If you have something to say, just say it!"

"Eh."

The eunuch did not dare to hesitate any longer. He knelt on the ground with a plop, sweat on his forehead, and recounted the previous events without any exaggeration.

"I checked and found that the eunuch who was reprimanded was not castrated!"

The voice just fell.

The eunuch shuddered again. The master understood the servant, and the servant also understood the master. Just as he finished speaking, the breathing of the superior suddenly became heavier!

There was no one else in the hall at that moment, so the sudden chill in the emperor's heart was all focused on the eunuch.

Liu Che said in a grim tone, full of murderous intent: "You mean, someone is causing trouble in the palace!?"
