Chapter 411 The little one doesnt want to die(1/2)
Cheng Xi stopped and turned to look at Eunuch Tong.
Eunuch Tong's jaw was very tense, and his mood was very uneasy and tangled.
After looking at his arm being grabbed, Cheng Xi took the initiative and said, "What's wrong? Did you remember something?"
"No," Eunuch Tong shook his head, "I just feel really uneasy.
It's still what we agreed on last time. If, if the master really has any ideas, you must let me know in advance.
I can't run away, so I just want to pack up and leave with dignity."
The trembling tone showed the fear inside.
Cheng Xi was also infected, and her heart pounded.
But now is really not the time to be afraid. Cheng Xi comforted him and said: "You have never dealt with Feng Chang, and there is no trace of you. Feng Chang said he was 'Eunuch Tong', but your family name is not Tong at all."
.The only ones who know your original surname are the master and me. Feng Chang has no idea, so what can the palace find out about you?"
Eunuch Tong comforted himself and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, that's the truth! Even I almost forgot my surname. The man named Cao couldn't find me even if he searched the palace."
Cheng Xi asked again: "I've seen you outside... Su Chang has seen you, right?"
Eunuch Tong frowned and said in a deep voice: "Su Chang worked for Su Yi, where did he go to betray me? No matter how hard Duke Fuguo bit him, he couldn't bite Su Chang."
These few words were spoken loudly, not because he was absolutely sure, but because the weaker his heart was, the louder his voice would inevitably be. He relied on this method to embolden himself.
Even though he was brave, he couldn't really get strong. Eunuch Tong asked tentatively: "Isn't it possible?"
Cheng Xi thought about it seriously and said: "Wang Qi borrowed Su Chang's shop to attack Dao Heng. That was almost a year ago. If there is really news about Fu Guo Gong, Su Chang can still do a good job.
Annual sales? I heard that he made a lot of money in the past two months!"
Only then did Eunuch Tong let out a long sigh of relief, and his heart dropped halfway: "If you say that, I feel relieved."
"Don't scare yourself first," Cheng Xi patted Eunuch Tong on the arm, "You haven't even mentioned your horoscope yet! Anyway, I promised you that once the master has any instructions, I will definitely inform you quietly, no.
It will make you walk in a mess."
Eunuch Tong wiped his face and let Cheng Xi go.
As soon as the people left, he sat down on the pole again and stepped on the grinding wheel.
Having lived to this age, he has seen quite a few dead people. Some of them died tragically and were buried decently. Most of them were not dignified at all. They could just get a mat and they would be fine.
There are very few people who are decent in front of you but still decent after you leave.
However, Wang Qi was doing well when he left.
It is better to change into better clothes and take the initiative to hang yourself from the beam, than to die if you make a fuss.
He also wanted to learn from Wang Qi.
He had made new clothes a year ago, but he purposely never wore them once. He kept them in a cage, hoping to wear them only when needed.
Eunuch Tong looked at the pill again.
He knew many prescriptions, including one that was fatal, and he had secretly prepared some.
Based on his friendship with Cheng Xi, if he didn't struggle or resist, he would walk honestly, and if he left some money for Cheng Xi, Cheng Xi would probably buy a coffin for him.
His lifeblood has also been taken back. When the time comes, he will be buried together, and he will not have to be a disabled person in the next life...
In this room, Eunuch Tong was thinking about arrangements for his death. In the other room, Cheng Xi returned to the front, and the master happened to return home.
Not bothering to look through old books anymore, Cheng Xi followed his master and waited on him to change his clothes and cleanse his face.
Jin Guiren wiped his hands with a handkerchief and glanced at Cheng Xi: "If you have something to say, just tell me, don't hide it."
"Yes," Cheng Xi was extremely worried and said bravely, "Feng Chang opened his mouth about the news sent by Wang Gouzi and mentioned the 'child eunuch'. How much he said specifically is not clear at the moment."
Jin Guiren stopped wiping his hands, remained silent for a moment, and said, "He mentioned the child eunuch?"
Cheng Xi nodded and quietly looked at his master's expression.
The master seemed expressionless, but he couldn't tell what he was thinking about.
Compared to Dao Heng and Wang Qi, Cheng Xi was naturally closer to Eunuch Tong, who was also an eunuch, and he also had a strong fear of lip death and tooth coldness.
Therefore, he boldly said to Jin Guiren: "I don't understand, where did Feng Chang hear about Eunuch Tong? They must have had no contact with him at all. Master, if you tell me if it is him, you will know that there is someone beside you."
Eunuch Tong, you don’t understand anyone else, so you deliberately made up stories in order to take a breather in Eunuch Cao’s hands?”
Jin Guiren threw the veil back into the basin: "When he said one sentence, there would be a second and third sentence."
Cheng Xi lamented silently: "Then what do you mean..."
Jin Guiren said nothing and turned to look at the yard.
One side of this house was originally covered with floor-to-ceiling window panels. With the advent of spring, the window panels were closed and hanging curtains were hung up as usual.
At this time, the curtain was rolled up, connecting the verandah outside, and the greenery of the yard came into view.
Cheng Xi followed Jin Guiren's line of sight and saw shoot tips sprouting from the small patch of bamboo on the ground.
After a while, Jin Gui slowly said, "Please ask Eunuch Tong to come over."
"Master?" Cheng Xi called out in a low voice. Seeing that Jin Guiren had no extra reaction, he could only agree.
When the sunset was about to disappear, Eunuch Tong saw Cheng Xi who had left and returned.
Cheng Xi said: "Master lets you go."
Eunuch Tong tremblingly held the back of the chair: "Is it time?"
"I'm not sure," Cheng Xi said in a low voice, "Since you don't recognize Feng Chang, you can have a good talk with the master."
Eunuch Tong had no idea: "Wang Qi and the others are all dead..."
"It's different," Cheng Xi said hurriedly, "The relationship between you and the master is always different. You have served Master Zhang before."
Both of them were silent.
It's been so long, so long, that for many, many years, no one has mentioned Master Zhang again, and even Master Zhang will not talk about it.
After a long while, Eunuch Tong cried sadly and said, "When I followed Master Zhang, I was less than ten years old. How could I be considered a servant?"
"But the master is worried about it," Cheng Xi added, "otherwise, why would there be a piece of bamboo in front of the window?
Flowers change from season to season, but that patch of green bamboo remains unchanged for many years. Isn’t it the half-year period before Master Zhang left, when all that could be seen were those green bamboos?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Just before I came over, the master was watching again, and I thought he was also thinking about your past achievements."
As the conversation began, old memories slowly came back to me.
Thinking of Master Zhang's frail body, thinking that she would occasionally admit the wrong person when she was seriously ill, thinking that in order to comfort the confused Master Zhang, he would pretend to be the master's voice to "cheat" her...
Eunuch Tong wiped his eyes: "Master Zhang passed away early, which is pitiful. He never lived a good day."
Cheng Xi actually has never met Master Zhang.
When he followed his master, Master Zhang had already passed away, and it was only later when he was working for his master that he finally figured out all the grudges from the past.
"You wait outside," Tong Gongzheng said, "I'm going to change my clothes. Master really wants to leave me alone..."
Cheng Xi didn't dare to agree with him and went out as promised.
The sunset has gone and the sky is getting dark.
Cheng Xi's heart sank a little bit, and he hoped that Eunuch Tong would be well.
If Dao Heng, who has made a lot of contributions in recent years, cannot survive, and neither can Eunuch Tong, who has an old relationship with his master, then Cheng Xi will be the one who makes mistakes one day, will he still survive?
When Father Tong comes out with dignity, the two of them go there together.
Along the way, Mr. Tong explained everything behind his death to Cheng Xi in detail.
Cheng Xi wrote down where his personal money was hidden and where his life was kept. He didn't stop talking until he reached the master's house.
Cheng Xi stayed outside, and Eunuch Tong went in alone.
After walking around the floor cover, he saw his master. Just as Cheng Xi said, he was standing under the connected verandah. The stone lanterns in the yard were lit, reflecting the shadows of green bamboos.
Eunuch Tong stepped forward, knelt down and saluted: "Master."
Jin Guiren turned to look at him and saw that he was wearing new clothes and his hair was combed shiny. He couldn't help but be stunned: "What? Are you in a hurry to go out?"
When Eunuch Tong heard this, his face turned pale and his forehead rested on the ground: "I don't want to go out. I won't try to escape with Dao Heng and cause you trouble."
Only then did Jin Guiren react, and his tense face became even more ugly.
"You want to die?" he said coldly, "I told you you can die?"
Eunuch Tong trembled all over. It was neither an answer nor an answer.
But the master didn't say a word after that, only that cold gaze fell on his back, making the young father-in-law feel like a ray of light on his back.
Thinking of Cheng Xi's words, Eunuch Tong became bolder.
It’s amazing that they all die!
"Master, I don't want to die," Eunuch Tong choked, "Feng Chang told me, although I can't understand why such a flaw happened, but I understand the rules..."
The master will not spare anyone who is caught.
