The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 203 Is There a Female Eunuch?

Ever since she arrived at Yeduju, Princess Chang'an has been rather depressed.

So far, her men have been caged three times.The first time was the day when Li Chengbin entered the cage.

The second time was because she didn't fold the quilt up to standard, she lost her temper and threw the quilt away, but Li Xia got into the cage for her.

The third time happened almost at the same time as the second time.She was angry and wanted to go back to the palace, but this time even she was locked in a cage.

That damn Jia Laosi, the military order didn't include putting her in a cage, but that's what he did.

She also plausibly said that she was going to be a deserter.According to the regulations, her head could be beheaded.

God damn Jia Laosi, dare to say that he wants to cut off Bengong's head?You are tired of life.

When I go back, I will tell my father, who do you think will cut off whose head?
It’s nothing more than locking the cages. Now, the more than 20 cages are full every day, and there are still many people who are waiting to be assigned to lock the cages because they violate discipline and the cages are not enough.

With so many people in cages, it's nothing to be ashamed of.Now, no one jokes.

However, this goddamn Jia Laosi actually said that we are eunuchs.From ancient times to the present, who has heard of female eunuchs?

We are all big girls like flowers and jade, how did we become eunuchs?Now as soon as we go out, those soldiers stare at us like monsters.Some even called us eunuchs in person.

All right, just call.I remember who called it.After I go back, I will arrest you and castrate you one by one. When the time comes, let's see who is the eunuch?

Jia Min is not to blame for calling Princess Chang'an and her promises eunuchs.

Although they are disguised as men, no matter how they pretend, they are not the same as real men.

Whether it is the voice of speaking, body shape, or words and deeds, there are always some feminine characteristics that cannot be concealed.

She, Lichun and other four promises always go in and out together, and live alone in the same room. Although the promises are not allowed to serve her, how can the habits and psychology of many years be changed in a short time?

Therefore, others are very suspicious of them.However, because they heard that they were relatives of the great eunuch Dai Quan, others guessed that they were also eunuchs.

Guessing like this, the weirdness of their words and deeds can be explained.They are indeed too much like eunuchs.

Their true identities are only known to Jia Min and a few other high-level officials.Even a battalion commander like Jia Lian didn't know about it.

So someone asked Jia Min if they were eunuchs.Jia Min had an idea and was inspired. He felt that saying they were eunuchs was the most reasonable explanation so far, so he acquiesced in this guess.

Jia Min's acquiescence, in his own opinion, was not a public statement.But in the eyes of others, it doesn't look like that.Others think that if Jia Min did not explicitly deny it, it would be tantamount to an open admission.

It was passed around, and when it reached the ears of Princess Chang'an, Jia Min said they were eunuchs.

It's all right for the soldiers to confirm their status as eunuchs, but the matter is not over yet.

Next, I became interested in why the eunuch came here to train soldiers.

In the end, a few smart people came to a conclusion.They must have been the bodyguards of some empress or princess in the palace.

Now, when the queue was resting for practice, Fatty talked about this topic with Princess Chang'an again.

Big Fatty is now the acting squad leader of their class. Because of his hard training and serious work, he was designated as the acting squad leader.

He has five brothers in total, and he earns a living by collecting firewood from the mountains at home.Because the family was poor, this time he joined the army with his younger brother Erpang.

When you come here, you can eat enough and earn a share of military pay.It is much more cost-effective than collecting firewood at home.

Although Fatty is tall and thick, but he is more careful, and he is usually good to Chang'an.

"Li An, you are in the palace, can you see the emperor and princess?"

Li An is the alias of Princess Chang'an here.Her four maids were named Li Chun, Li Xia, Li Qiu and Li Dong respectively.

"Yes, I can see you."

Princess Chang'an is still willing to talk to Big Fatty.Every time she heard Dapang talk about things in the mountains, she felt very fresh.

"Then the emperor and the princess, don't they eat white rice and drink broth?"

One of Dapang's great ideals when he was at home was to be able to eat white rice and drink broth every day.

"Well, this, yes."

It's more than capable, there are dozens of dishes in each meal.Speaking out is afraid of scaring you.Seeing that you are not bad, I will not scare you.

"You will go back in the future, can you tell the emperor to ask him to collect less tax? Oh, forget it, let's not talk about it. You are a little eunuch, and it is useless to talk about it. If the emperor is not happy, It doesn't matter if you cut off your head."

It's okay, I can go back and talk about it.The emperor will not chop off my head.If he wanted to chop it off, he would also chop off the head of that damned Jia Laosi.

"Fat squad leader, if you don't want to be a soldier, what do you want to do when you go home?"

"Of course I still chop firewood."

Hmph, you are worthless, I see that you are not bad, and I want to help you.

"Do you have any wish?"

"I have a lot of wishes. In the future, if I want to take care of my parents, I have to marry a wife and have a few children. It would be even better if I could buy a few acres of land. And..."

"Tell me your greatest wish?"

"My biggest wish is to get rich in the future and buy a golden ax."

"What do you buy a golden ax for?"

"Chopping firewood. Li An, tell me, the emperor chops firewood with a golden ax, right?"

Is the father chopping firewood?I do not know how?
Princess Chang'an was thinking wildly when she shouted over there to gather.Company Commander Qin Zhong announced the great news: Tomorrow is a day off.Those who have families in the emperor can go home to visit relatives, and those who have no homes can go to the city to play.One month's military pay in advance.Go get your money now.

Omg, I can finally go home.Goodbye, Notoju.After returning to the palace, I will never come back again.

Goodbye, Fourth Jia.After returning to the palace, the first thing to do is to find your father and tell him to cut off your head.

Huh?No, I took stock with him and cut off his head, who am I going to ask for money from now on?

Fourth Jia, for the sake of money, I've given you an advantage. I'll put your head on your neck for the time being.When I get rich in the future and don't need you, it's not too late to cut it off.

It was finally possible to go home, Princess Chang'an left as soon as she said she wanted to, and she didn't want to stay in this ghostly place for a moment.

Everyone else has gone to collect money, how much money does she still care about?He didn't even want his personal belongings, so as not to cause that Jia Laosi to see and suspect him.

This goddamn Jia Laosi is a vicious bastard.A pair of eyes seemed to be able to see through people's hearts. If he became suspicious, he might not be able to leave.

After getting in the car and reaching the gate, I saw Jia Min there.

"Li An? When I go back this time, will I not come back?"

Jia Min looked at Princess Chang'an and said with a smile.

Huh?How did he know?No, they must be cheating on me.I will not be fooled.

"Officer Min, I'll be back tomorrow night."

Princess Chang'an smiled awkwardly.

The idiot just came back.When the time comes, I won't come back, how dare you go to the palace to arrest me?snort!Even if I borrow your guts, you dare not go.

"If you really don't want to come back, don't come back. Well, let's go."

This is what you said.Do you think I will come back?

When he arrived at the Wumen gate of the Forbidden City, he told Li Chengbin to go home and listen to the order, and then walked towards the palace.

"Do you all remember what to say when you go back?"

"I remember it all."

"Okay, let's go in, don't talk about revealing your secrets."

After entering the palace, Princess Chang'an and the others promised to walk in line habitually as if they were living in the wild.Seeing the eunuchs and maids looking at them strangely, they realized that they were special, so they dispersed.Chang'an walked in the middle, Lichun and others surrounded her, and went straight to her father's bedroom.

"Yo, my little princess is back."

Emperor Yuanheng put down the memorial and stood up.

"Father, you miss me to death."

"How about it, is it going well there?"

"Successful, just the day I went there, I had a fight with someone."

"A fight?"

"Yeah, that military judge was ignorant, so I taught him a lesson. Later, that fourth Jia came out and made a fuss. Li Chengbin saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, so he beat him up. "

"Well, Li Chengbin is my bodyguard, so of course he has some tricks. How are you doing there?"

"Okay, I don't have anything to do all day, just practice walking, stacking quilts and so on. It's very leisurely."

Father, you are not idle at all, you are killing people.That ghostly place is not for people to stay in.This time I can come back alive to see you.It's just luck.

"Even if it's leisure, it's still a military camp after all. There are always rules, so you don't receive any punishment?"

Yuan Heng naturally knew himself as a precious princess, and he really didn't believe it when he said that he would not cause trouble there.

"It's just that bear-like Jia Laosi, when he sees me, his legs are so frightened that his legs go limp. Besides, with the might of the emperor father, how could he dare?"

He is so daring, this goddamn Jia Laosi doesn't even look down on you, Father.He clearly knows who I am, and still puts me in a cage.

It's just that such a shameful thing can't be said.If it gets out, how can you hang around in the palace in the future?

"Hmph, forgive me he didn't dare. He dared to be disrespectful to my little princess and cut off his head carefully."

Yes, beheading is to be beheaded.It's just not the time yet.It's not too late to cut it until you have made enough money.

"Is it really just practicing walking and making quilts?"

"Yeah, I didn't practice anything else at all. His subordinates kept carrying the sedan chair for him, saying that he could train soldiers. How could he train soldiers? If it comes to poetry and business, Jia Laosi is still good at training soldiers. Well, he doesn't understand at all."

Walking down the aisle, can you fight wars by stacking quilts?Only the devil would believe it.

"Father, pass on the meal quickly, I'm hungry."

"Oh, good, pass on the meal, pass on the meal."
