Chapter 488

Inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Eunuch Xi saw that the emperor was fast asleep, and then he exited cautiously, and told the guards and servants outside the door, "The emperor is fast asleep, no one is allowed to disturb you, please keep an eye on our family."

"Yes, Eunuch Xi."

The servants were ordered to stand in their own positions, and no one dared to slack off.

"Master, why are you sighing so much?" A little eunuch walked over, carefully supported his arm like an old ancestor, and helped him to sit on a chair beside him.

"Your Majesty will have to sleep for a long time. Take a rest, master, and my apprentice will relax your muscles and bones." The little eunuch said, and had already walked behind him, rubbing his shoulders and back skillfully.

Eunuch Xi wanted to refuse, but this apprentice was really comfortable. He closed his eyes enjoying himself, "You child is considered filial. , this position of head eunuch is yours."

The little eunuch looked overjoyed, but shook his head like a rattle, "Where did the master say, the master is blessed with great blessings, and he will live a long life."

"Hush!" Eunuch Xi hurriedly put his index finger on the center of his red lips, "You can say things like Hong Fu Qi Tian?"

Seeing that Tuer lowered his head knowing his mistake, he tapped his head, "You are a servant in the palace, be careful with your mouth, what to say and what not to say, weigh it yourself, be careful that misfortunes come out of your mouth .”

"Master taught me!" The little eunuch lowered his head, and his hands moved more diligently, "I know I was wrong, but the master is a person who follows the emperor, so naturally I will enjoy the blessings with the emperor, and the apprentice didn't say anything." Wrong word."

"You child..." Eunuch Xi rolled his eyes angrily, and almost fainted, "Forget it, you are still young, and I don't blame you if you don't understand Master. Fortunately, you didn't show up when you were serving on weekdays Fault. But don't blame the master for not reminding you. The situation in the palace is complicated and changing rapidly these days. Be careful when doing anything. If something really falls into the hands of others, let alone me, the master I won't lose you!"

The little eunuch nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes, I will be careful, and I will not forget the master's warning, but too many things have happened in the palace recently, so it is the emperor who fell ill. Oh, by the way, master, there was a man just now Ask the apprentice to give this to the master."

After receiving the note handed over by the little eunuch, Eunuch Xi's face changed drastically after reading it, and he hurriedly looked around, and after finding nothing unusual, he pulled the little eunuch into the corner, "Who gave you this thing, who else will see it?" Pass?"

"I don't dare to look at the things that are handed over to the master." The little apprentice looked respectful, "Yes, it was sent by a guard, and it was mysterious. Before I could ask which palace it was, he walked away. Yes, master, is there something wrong?"

"You stay here, I will come back quickly, remember, if the emperor wakes up, he will send someone to find me immediately."

Eunuch Xi dropped his words and hurried away.

The little eunuch touched the back of his head in a daze. Shouting to his back, "It's the master, but hurry up too."

——Behind the rockery in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

There were only these six words on the note, but the handwriting was so arrogant that Eunuch Xi only felt a bad feeling when he saw it.

His heart raised his throat, and he saw a sneaky figure behind the rockery from a distance, and he hurriedly walked over cautiously.

This figure was somewhat familiar, very much like the person who threatened him here that day, he was about to kneel down and salute, but when the person turned around, it was a face he had never seen before.

"You, who are you?"

Since I have never seen it before, I am not so afraid. Eunuch Xi's aura also returned, and his arrogance increased a lot. "Bold, you dare to be so sneaky in the palace. Tell me, why do you need our family?"

The man turned around and didn't look at Eunuch Xi, as if he knew him very well, "Presumptuous! Mr. Xi, don't think that you have done something for the empress. You are superior to others. Everyone belongs to the empress, and no one is superior to anyone else! Pay attention The way you speak."

"Your Majesty?" Eunuch Xi was a little confused, but in an instant he seemed to think of something, his face turned from green to white, and he hurriedly drew a line, "What Your Majesty, our family doesn't know what you are talking about, since you found the wrong one People, then our family will not accompany you!"

"Stop!" The man hurried to catch up.

Eunuch Xi looked back, his face full of arrogance, "Why, you, a little bodyguard, dare to stop our family! Can you bear the burden of delaying our family's return to serve the emperor?"

"It's just a eunuch, there's nothing to be arrogant about. Xi Gonggong, the emperor thinks highly of you, so I respectfully call you Xi Gonggong, but after all, everyone is a person who works for the empress, and everyone has nothing to do with the death of Concubine Yi." What's the difference between you and me?"

The guard sneered.

"What about murdering Concubine Yi, you can eat things but not talk nonsense!" Eunuch Xi's anxious standard duck voice leaked out again, very sharp.

"Yo, I've done everything, now I pretend to be noble and don't admit it? Anyway, that person is dead, and he won't come to you like a ghost. What are you afraid of! Concubine Min Gui asked me to kill Concubine Yi's personal maid, and you Didn’t you also help Concubine Min to kill Concubine Yi? I dare admit it, are you still afraid?” The guard smiled, looked around at Eunuch Xi, and finally shook his head disdainfully, “Tsk tsk, the eunuch is indeed an eunuch, but there are no men The temperament of daring to act, forget it, I will not make things difficult for you."

Being so humiliated by others, Eunuch Xi was so angry that he pointed at his face and scolded, "You, you bastard! Don't think that the people around Concubine Min can humiliate our family like this! I warn you, Concubine Yi was murdered! I didn't do anything about this matter, unlike you, who are so arrogant in killing people!"

"Didn't do anything? Then how did Concubine Yi die? Did she die in the Royal Garden?" The guard glanced at him, "Okay, since you refuse to admit it, then I won't make it difficult for you. Concubine Min originally planned to Let go of the people you care about, now it seems..."

"What the hell are you going to do!" Eunuch Xi became anxious for a moment, seeing the malicious eyes of the guards, he rushed up and grabbed his collar tightly, "I warn you, don't do anything to them!"

"It's fine if you don't do anything, so now you admit that you and I are both Concubine Min's people?" the guard asked.

"I, I..." Eunuch Xi closed his eyes and opened them again, his whole body seemed to be drenched in sweat, and he finally escaped from the struggle, "I just helped them pay Concubine Yi, I didn't kill anyone, Concubine Yi was killed It has nothing to do with me..."

"Xidesheng!"

When a thick and majestic voice came from behind.

Eunuch Xi was taken aback, and hurriedly turned around, only to see the emperor appearing behind him at some point, supported by someone.

The second prince, the second concubine, the sixth prince, and concubine Min Gui who are under escort are all there!

Bang.

He just felt a thunderbolt hit his head.

What did he say just now?

It's over, it's over this time!

"Emperor, Your Majesty?"

Kneeling suddenly on the ground, Eunuch Xi kept kowtowing to the emperor, "Your majesty, please forgive me, I know I was wrong, I begged the emperor to spare my life."

"You still dare to beg my life?"

The emperor who was supported by Qin Ruochen stretched out his trembling hands, and looked at the old eunuch who had been with him for many years in disbelief, "I, I ask myself to entrust everything to you to serve, and I regard you as my most trusted confidant, But you actually murdered my noble concubine!"

Seeing the excited look of the emperor, Eunuch Xi raised his heart to his throat, and then looked at the guards around him, he had already changed into a guard at some time and stood behind Shangguan Shaochen.

He is not a fool, he already knew that all of this was planned by the second prince and others. So the emperor just pretended to be asleep, the guard just now was trying to lure him to confess the evil things he had done!

Just when did he expose it?

Sure enough, a person can't do anything wrong in his life.

"Your Majesty, spare your life! I beg your Majesty to spare the life of this old slave for the sake of serving the Emperor with all your heart and soul for so many years, Your Majesty..."

The chief eunuch murdered the imperial concubine. It's over, his life is probably over.

"Eunuch Xi, tell me the truth, what else did you do to help Concubine Min?" Ling Mu'er asked coldly, "Concubine Min murdered Concubine Yi, she has confessed all the crimes, but without your help, what would her plan be? It will succeed, and Concubine Yi will not die tragically, how dare you beg for mercy?"

Eunuch Xi raised his eyes and wanted to justify something, but in the end he swallowed all of it back into his stomach, and looked at the emperor eagerly, "Long live, you can't blame the old slave for this matter! Yes, the old slave should never have done it!" No, I shouldn't be like others marrying women outside. This old slave was caught by Concubine Min Gui and threatened me to send Concubine Yi away! But this old slave really didn't expect that Concubine Yi would die in Concubine Min's hands! Your Majesty! "

Eunuch Xi kept kowtowing, and within a short while his forehead was already bleeding, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. If this old slave knows that Concubine Yi will die that day, I will definitely not send her away. Please give this old slave a chance. , spare the life of this old slave, Your Majesty!"

"Sure enough, you sent Concubine Yi away!"

After getting a definite answer, Ling Muer's eyes were scarlet, but when he thought of what Qin Yuheng sent someone to pass on, he immediately looked at Qin Ruochen, and said to Xi Desheng, "Eunuch Xi, you just said that Concubine Min Gui caught you This is why she threatens you to do things for her, but Concubine Min is in the harem, how can she know about your marriage in the private sector, if you want to survive, you should tell the truth!"

Seeing Ling Muer's eyes of hatred for Qin Ruochen, Xi Desheng knew that the second prince and concubine had guessed something.

His eyes immediately turned to Qin Ruochen, seeing the threat in his eyes, he smiled helplessly, "Go back to the emperor, back to the second concubine, the old slave is indeed threatened by someone, but this person..."

"Father! As the chief eunuch, but murdered the noble concubine of the harem, the crime should be punished. I also ask my father to hand over this matter to my son!"

Qin Ruochen stood up suddenly, and before the emperor gave an order, he had already walked in front of Xi Desheng, "Eunuch Xi, for the sake of taking care of the emperor with all your heart for so many years, this prince can give you a chance, do you want to be careful?" Now, how exactly did Concubine Min send Concubine Yi away from the Palace of Mental Cultivation? If you tell the truth, this prince can spare your innocent family members, otherwise..."
