Chapter 137: The Evil Eunuch Gets into Trouble Again
Zhao Xiaogao returned to the harem in disgrace, and what greeted him was the Queen's cold face and indifferent and arrogant look. When Zhao Xiaogao was about to explain, the Queen motioned him to shut up and scolded:
"I'm blind, why did I recruit a loser like you into the palace? Apart from having something in your crotch that other eunuchs don't have, what else do you think you can be proud of?"
Zhao Xiaogao blushed and said, "My dear, listen to me."
"I heard what you said? I saw it all. Look at the mangy look you have on the martial arts field. If you don't blush, I will blush for you. If you don't find a place to die, why are you coming back?"
"Empress, you only know one but not the other," Zhao Xiaogao argued.
"How come I don't know?" Wang Shimei screamed, "Firstly, you were defeated by others, and you knelt on the ground and called you father and mother; secondly, they took away your nine admirals, and the official you got was
No more. Is there a third one? You heartless thief, do you know how easy it is for your father to get such a job for you? With a shy old face, you go around asking for insults. It would be better for you to wipe your ass with the rubble and make it.
It was a one-time transaction."
"I have a secret that I can't tell you, empress!" Zhao Xiaogao wanted to explain the reason for the matter, but the queen wouldn't let him speak, so his neck turned red.
"What do you have to hide?" Wang Shimei asked in surprise, "What do you have to hide?"
Zhao Xiaogao quickly took off his coat, revealing blood-red marks on his arms and back.
"Who beat you like this, that pretty boy in the afternoon?"
Although Queen Wang is a bossy person and says some unpleasant things in her anger, after all, it is a one-night-and-hundred-day relationship between husband and wife, and her sweetheart has been wronged outside. How can she be so acquainted with it and not see it?
"If it's not him, who is he? He didn't even hurt a single hair on my head!" Now that things have happened, Zhao Xiaogao has never forgotten to praise Haikou.
"If not him, who else would be so bold as to dare to touch someone in my palace?" Queen Wang gently stroked Zhao Xiaogao's scars and said heartbrokenly.
"This happened last night." Zhao Xiaogao thought as he spoke.
"Didn't you sleep on my bed last night? Someone would hurt you in your dream?" Wang Shimei asked in surprise.
Zhao Xiaogao said eloquently: "You fell asleep last night, but I couldn't sleep for a long time. I thought it was the last day, so don't make any mistakes and live up to the deep kindness that the old prime minister gave me, like my biological parents. I
Thinking of a trip to the ancestral boxing path, some parts were still a bit raw and needed to be developed, so I thought of practicing martial arts in the garden and thinking about a few important joints. Unexpectedly, before I got to the Royal Garden, I saw Cong Bi.
A dozen masked men rushed out of Xia Palace and surrounded me. I was mainly unprepared, otherwise let alone ten of them, even thirty, fifty, seventy or eighty of them would not be my opponent! These people couldn't help but say,
Three times five divided by two tied me up tightly."
"Didn't you recognize who they were?" Queen Wang asked urgently.
"How can I identify them in the dark? Besides, they are all wearing black cloths and masks." Zhao Xiaogao finally made up this story.
"Did they beat you?" Wang Shimei asked with concern.
"I wasn't beaten when I was beaten, but they hung me on a beam for a whole night." Lying was Zhao Xiaogao's forte.
Wang Shimei then asked: "Didn't you tell them that you are from my palace?"
Zhao Xiaogao replied: "I said it, can I not say it? I said at the beginning that I was the eunuch of the middle palace."
"Why don't you let me go after I told you?" the queen asked.
"This group of people is so arrogant. They keep talking about how my mother is waiting for me, and they even threaten to take off my pants?"
"They didn't embarrass you, did they? I mean they didn't find anything, right?" Queen Wang's heart fluttered. After all, she had shortcomings, so she spoke very tactfully, but the meaning couldn't be more clear.
"That's not true." Zhao Xiaogao concealed a fact.
"That's good." Wang Shimei finally said a stone fell to the ground. She was really worried about her reputation. She thought about it and asked, "Don't you recognize any of them?"
Zhao Xiaogao said with a sad face: "They all have their faces covered, so how can I recognize them, but there is one voice that I am most familiar with."
"who?"
"Pan Youan!"
"I knew immediately that this matter was related to him!" Queen Wang slapped the table and stood up.
"Empress, what are you doing?"
"The bullying has reached the Ai family. It depends on the owner to beat the dog!"
"My dear, do you think I can still fight the battle during the day after being tortured all night? I lost, but I am not convinced. If you give me another chance, that pretty boy is no match for me!" Zhao
Xiao Gao said with added jealousy.
"I've wronged you, Gao'er. This matter can't be settled like this. You wait for me in the palace. I'll go to my father immediately to see if he has any clever tricks. It's best if I can save him. If I can't save him, I can't let Pan You'an get any easier. Anyway,
This matter cannot end like this."
Queen Wang was an impatient person. After saying this, she immediately took the phoenix chariot and left angrily. Zhao Xiaogao finally breathed a sigh of relief: He was almost beaten, frustrated on the battlefield, and still happy in love. This is the greatest blessing among misfortunes. If he were killed today
How can I get back in after being kicked out of the palace?
Then he thought to himself: Where did that pretty boy come from at noon today? Could it be that he fell from the sky? That pretty boy looked so pretty, but it was a pity that he was a boy? How could he be a boy? No.
! He is definitely not a man. I fought with him face to face for half a day. His voice was like a silver bell, his face was like powder, his breath was like orchid, and he was sweating like a drop of fragrance. Although he was highly skilled in martial arts, his movements showed that he was light and thin.
His arms are graceful and graceful, but he doesn’t look like a tall and thick man, so he is obviously a fake. But having said that, even if he is really a woman, who dares to take off his pants to check? This matter must be told to Enxiang, so that he can have some thoughts.
Prepare, don't let others fool you? Thinking about it this way, he did not dare to neglect, ordered someone to prepare a sedan, and drove directly to the Prime Minister's residence.
Prime Minister Wang had just sent his daughter away when the gatekeeper said that Eunuch Zhao, Eunuch Zhao, had something important to tell him.
The two sat down, the maid brought tea, and Wang Shugui comforted him:
"Xiao Gao, today's matter is difficult for you. I never expected that the little eunuch would be one step ahead of us and secretly use poisonous arrows to hurt people behind their backs, causing you to rush into battle in a hurry. It would be strange if you don't lose! I can't blame you for this. I'm here for you.
It’s up to you. Don’t be discouraged, there will be many opportunities for promotion in the future.”
Zhao Xiaogao replied respectfully: "Thank you very much for your kindness. I hate you so much."
"Of course, the Queen and I have just informed each other that this matter cannot be dismissed. When I have a chance to report to the Emperor, I will certainly punish the young eunuch for stabbing someone in the back. The key problem is that we have no evidence at hand.
You didn't catch one of them, that's why it's so difficult."
"Enxiang, I remembered what you said. One of them showed some clues. He seemed to say that they were all eunuchs from the rebel prince's palace." Zhao Xiaogao said cautiously.
"What you said means you didn't say anything," Prime Minister Wang scolded. "There are more than thirty eunuchs in the harem who rebelled against the palace. Isn't it possible to arrest them all and question them? Besides, even though I am the Chief Assistant Gu
Minister of Life, but the harem is beyond my reach. The harem is a forbidden palace and I can't enter. That's why I put you there so that you can respond when necessary. Who would have thought that you were attacked by them before your feathers were fully grown?
As for the next step, let me think of a way."
Zhao Xiaogao repeated his old tune and remembered his brilliant plan again, saying: "En Xiang, the source of all bad things is that old cunning woman. If I sneak into Bixia Palace that night and kill her with one knife, everything will be over."
Have you retired?"
"You can't do it, you can't do it!" Prime Minister Wang shook his hands like windmills and stopped him, "This thing must not be done! That Tong girl is full of tricks and the little eunuch is very cunning. They must be on guard before you get to her.
In front of the building, I will arrest you first. This is absolutely impossible. The Queen has also mentioned this matter to me. I have told her and informed you that you must not take such a dangerous move and miss our chance.
event."
When Zhao Xiaogao heard what Lao Wang said, he realized what was at stake. He broke into a cold sweat and thought to himself: Wasn't he also caught not far from Bixia Palace last night? It looked like he was a slippery fox after all.
If you bump into it accidentally, you won’t know when you will die! After leaning for a moment, Zhao Xiaogao remembered the purpose of his trip and said:
"I have something to repay you for your kindness."
"What's the matter?" Prime Minister Wang stroked his goatee.
"The man I jousted with at noon was not a man."
"How did you know?"
"I can feel it."
"What you are saying is just nonsense!" Prime Minister Wang reprimanded, "How do you know whether he is a boy or a girl? You didn't take off his pants to verify? When these words are spread, you are giving others a thumbs up, saying that you can't beat them.
In turn, they falsely accuse someone of being a prostitute."
"Enxiang, he is indeed a woman, I can use my head as a guarantee!" Zhao Xiaogao said with confidence.
"Is this true?" Wang Shugui's mind was also a little quick and he said, "If he is really a woman and commits the serious crime of deceiving the emperor, he will be sent to heaven."
"Enxiang, when did I tell a lie in front of you? That young man must be a woman. How many women have I been in contact with in my life, and in the end I can't recognize both men and women?" Zhao Xiaogao became anxious after three years of self-destruction.
Then he shook off his old foundation.
"So I have a plan." Wang Shugui pondered for a while and said.
"Can Enxiang tell me something?" Zhao Xiaogao stretched out his ears humbly.
Wang Shugui said: "I will make arrangements right now to place one or two eyes and ears among the servants of this new nine-door admiral. Within three days, the male and female will be distinguished."
"Okay, Enxiang is such a brilliant idea! What a brilliant idea!" Zhao Xiaogao said with a thumbs up.
