Watching Fang Chen leave, the palace maid Hongxiu said with excitement: "I heard from the eunuch of the Internal Affairs Supervisory Department just now that Eunuch Fang came to Lingqing Palace specially today."
"He is now your majesty's favorite person. If he can say a few kind words for you, your majesty may give you a reward!"
Ye Xue'e smiled bitterly and touched Hong Xiu's little head: "Silly girl, it doesn't matter whether you get a reward or not. It's good to be alive in this harem."
"Empress, what's wrong with you?" Hongxiu asked hurriedly, sensing that something was wrong with her master.
Ye Xue'e sighed in her heart: "It's okay, let's arrange it. Yesterday, His Majesty said he would come here again tonight."
Hongxiu was very happy for Ye Xue'e when she heard that, and hurriedly took people to do some business.
Fang Chen was walking on the road and saw a group of eunuchs clearing the way from a distance.
After hanging around for a few days, he also knew that this was the emperor's guard of honor. Generally, wherever the emperor wanted to stay, the eunuchs would go to announce the arrangements in advance, so he quickly stepped aside.
Feng Gao, who was in the honor guard, saw him and walked out of the team: "Eunuch Fang."
"Brother Feng." Fang Chen raised his head.
Feng Gao laughed and said, "What is Brother Fang doing here?"
"I just came out of Lingqing Palace and am about to return to the Internal Affairs Prison. Brother, where are you going to do this battle?" Fang Chen asked with a smile.
Feng Gao: "Your Majesty will stay at Lingqing Palace tonight, and our family has brought people to arrange it in advance."
"It's Lingqing Palace again. Your Majesty is so in love with Ye Guiren recently?" Fang Chen said subconsciously.
When Feng Gao heard this, he quickly covered his mouth: "Brother, you can't say this nonsense."
"I made a mistake." Fang Chen said.
Feng Gao rolled his eyes, young people are reckless.
He said: "It's not what you think, brother."
Feng Gao Gao said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, you went to Lingqing Palace to hide from people."
"Who are you hiding from?" Fang Chen was curious.
"Who else could it be? The Queen. Yesterday and the day before yesterday, the Queen sent people to the Imperial Study Room to invite His Majesty twice. I don't know what His Majesty thinks."
Fang Chen suddenly realized: "So that's it."
Because Lu Caihuang pressed too hard, Her Majesty the Empress had no choice but to pull Ye Xue'e out to block her, so the Empress was concerned about her.
Feng Gao: "What did you say? Why is that so?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Then I won't disturb you, brother."
It was already evening when Fang Chen said goodbye to Feng Gao and returned to the Internal Affairs Prison.
After dinner, and after arranging the eunuchs' evening work, Fang Chen moved a wicker chair to the courtyard.
It was midsummer now, and the weather was extremely hot. He was enjoying the cool air while meditating.
I couldn't help but feel a little confused, but now I understand.
Lu Caihuang wanted to kill Ye Xue'e entirely because of Her Majesty the Empress. There was no point in telling Her Majesty the Empress about this matter.
Being beaten by Lu Caihuang, a master of martial arts, Ye Xue'e couldn't even think about dying.
It wasn't that Madonna Fang Chen wanted to save Ye Xue'e's life, on the contrary, an evil thought arose in his heart.
You are going to die anyway, so why not do it yourself and let Lu Caihuang help you practice.
But this was too inhumane, so Fang Chen suppressed his evil thoughts.
At this moment, a timid cry came out: "Is Eunuch Fang here?"
Fang Chen turned around: "What's the matter?"
She is a good-looking palace maid. After all, she is a woman in the palace. How can she be bad?
The other party stood cautiously at the door of the Internal Affairs Prison, raising his head and not daring to approach.
After receiving Fang Chen's response, the palace maid hurriedly said: "I am the palace maid of Tianhua Palace, and I have come to invite Eunuch Fang on the orders of the empress."
Fang Chen didn't think much, stood up and said: "Lead the way."
Along the way, the palace maid held a lantern and looked at Fang Chen, her heart pounding. It was exactly what the others said.
She was young and didn't know much about things in the harem.
As Fang Chen walked, he was a little puzzled that the flower beds and bushes on both sides looked a little desolate, as if no one had taken care of them for a long time.
He couldn't help but ask: "Where are we?"
The palace maid's heart skipped a beat and she said hurriedly: "My father-in-law, please don't worry. The Tianhua Palace is just ahead. Your Majesty has been neglecting you over the years, so I don't have many servants."
"That's it." Fang Chen hummed.
I sighed in my heart, life in this palace is not easy, as long as the emperor is unhappy.
Then you will have to remain a widow for the rest of your life.
When they came to a palace, it was pitch dark inside. Fang Chen was stunned: "Is this Tianhua Palace?"
"Yes, father-in-law, please go in, my wife is waiting for you."
"Why don't you light the lamp?"
Fang Chen asked, and the palace maid replied: "There is no way, Tianhua Palace is not taken seriously, and we don't get much money every month. We have no choice but to turn off the lights as soon as it gets dark."
"This is too much."
Fang Chen walked into the palace as he spoke, and bowed down to salute: "The Chief of the Internal Affairs Bureau pays homage to the Empress."
At this moment, his body froze, and someone hugged him tightly from behind, speaking in a coquettish tone.
"Father-in-law."
Fang Chen was startled when he heard the voice of a palace maid and said hurriedly: "You, you, you, what are you doing! Where is the empress!"
"There's no such thing as a queen. Tianhua Palace has been abandoned for many years. The queen here couldn't bear His Majesty's neglect and committed suicide by throwing herself into a well."
The palace maid behind him, with a charming voice, hugged him tightly: "My father-in-law, please take pity on the green man."
Fang Chen was speechless. He immediately understood what the palace maid behind him meant. Are the women in this palace so courageous?
"You, you, you! Don't mess around."
However, the palace maid named Green Yuan hugged him and refused to let go. She even boldly put her hand directly into his clothes.
"There is a phoenix couch in the dormitory inside. Father-in-law, can we go there? You can rest assured that Green Yuan will serve you comfortably."
From what I heard, it seemed like this was not the first time for this girl.
If it was a real eunuch, Fang Chen might just pick her up. After all, this palace maid does have a good appearance.
But the problem is that he is a fake eunuch. How can he still reveal his secret?
He quickly refused, but before he could speak, he was pushed down by the green mandarin behind him.
Immediately afterwards, the entire mouth was blocked, and through the moonlight outside the door, one could even see the green mandarin's skin that could be broken by a blow.
This girl actually took off her coat when he entered.
At this moment, Fang Chen's eyes widened, and Green Yuan looked at him with horror on his face.
She touched something on Fang Chen's body that shouldn't be there, and the air suddenly froze!
The woman's eyes changed continuously, from the original fear to a kind of strangeness. She raised her head and put it next to Fang Chen's ear.
"It turns out that my father-in-law is not the real father-in-law."
"you!"
A fierce light suddenly appeared in Fang Chen's eyes. Before he could speak, he raised his hand and sneered: "Eunuch Fang, you don't want His Majesty to know about this, right?"
Is this palace maid from Japan?
Fang Chen's momentum was completely gone. Although the surroundings were dark, Green Mandarin also knew that Fang Chen would definitely not dare to be arrogant at this moment.
With a dangerous smile, he leaned over and gently bit Fang Chen's earlobe.
