When Xiao Linzi saw the banknote in his hand, his eyes almost popped out of his head. He had never seen such a large denomination of banknote in his life. It would take him ten years of living in the palace without food or drink to earn it.
The money I got.
Xiao Linzi's sister Shuangyue was also very surprised, but she was obviously calmer than Xiao Linzi. She first crawled out of the hole, dusted herself off, then grabbed the banknote, and then looked at her with a puzzled look on her face.
Xiao Linzi said: "Go to the edge and see if anyone passes by. Leave this matter to me."
Zhu Gui could see that Xiao Linzi still trusted his sister very much. He immediately followed Shuangyue's words after hearing them.
Shuangyue looked at Zhu Gui warily and said, "Who are you? The little eunuch in the palace will not just take out so much money."
Zhu Gui seemed to have been prepared for this. He smiled and said: "I am a servant of the eunuch in charge, and this amount of money is not a small amount for me. If my friend was not very important to me, I would
I don’t want to spend so much money either.”
"This matter is very simple for you, and you don't have to worry about money anymore. This is a win-win situation for us. Of course, if you don't want to, forget it, I can find someone else."
Zhu Gui said that she was going to take back the banknote. Shuangyue showed a struggling and hesitant look on her face, but when Zhu Gui's hand was about to touch the banknote, she withdrew her hand.
"What? Do you want to steal money? I just need to shout now to attract the guards, and no one will have a hard time then." Zhu Gui knew in his heart that the other party had been fooled, but on the surface he still wanted to show off.
Shuangyue said quickly: "Eunuch Gui, don't get me wrong, we have taken over this job, Xiao Linzi, come here, we are going back again."
Xiao Linzi heard the words and ran over quickly. Shuangyue stuffed the banknote into Xiao Linzi's arms, then patted it hard a few times and said: "If something happens, you run away first, don't worry about me, go back and take care of yourself."
Take care of your parents."
Xiao Linzi immediately said: "Sister, what are you talking about? How can I abandon you? Besides, I am a eunuch and can no longer carry on the family lineage. The Lin family still needs you to continue the incense."
Zhu Gui couldn't help but feel his scalp numb when he saw the two people looking like they were parting with each other. He quickly interrupted: "It's almost done. Nothing has happened yet. Can you save your tears first?"
The two of them wiped away their tears, said "oh" and started to crawl back.
Soon the three of them climbed through the hole and entered the harem.
The location they were in was behind a few laurel trees, and from here they could see the flying dogs and chickens outside.
Not all the young eunuchs and maids were willing to be buried with them, but their resistance was in vain. There were already many corpses lying in the yard.
Moreover, there were many young eunuchs who wanted to replace those who had been buried, so the entire harem was in great chaos.
Shuangyue and Xiao Linzi were obviously the group of people who were lucky enough to escape, but they also looked very panicked at this time.
Shuangyue whispered to Zhu Gui: "Eunuch Gui, where is your friend? If he has been caught or died, it is none of our business."
Zhu Gui frowned and nodded, but did not speak.
As the late emperor's beloved concubine, Concubine Guo Hui would naturally not fall into the same fate as these palace maids and eunuchs.
However, Zhu Gui could also imagine that the palace where Concubine Guo Hui was located would probably be heavily guarded.
How on earth do you get in?
Zhu Gui saw the team of eunuchs who were following the rules and walking into the palace behind the guards.
Yes, he once again thought of the trick of fishing in troubled waters.
So soon, Zhu Gui seized the opportunity and knocked out the two little eunuchs who were walking at the end of the team, and then he and Xiao Linzi blended in.
As for Shuangyue, Zhu Gui asked him to wait in the cave. If there was any danger, she could decide whether to stay or go.
Based on the sibling relationship between Shuangyue and Xiao Linzi, Shuangyue may not leave, but this is no longer important to Zhu Gui.
These new little eunuchs all have number plates on them to distinguish them from the eunuchs in the palace.
Along the way, Zhu Gui witnessed the chaos in the harem when status changed. This is the least written, but very dark side in history books.
Even though Zhu Gui had been on the battlefield several times, this scene still left him feeling frightened.
And this kind of thing has happened countless times in history.
Zhu Gui's emotion gradually turned into numbness.
It wasn't until he passed by Guo Huifei's palace that he called Xiao Linzi to leave the group.
It's just that there are guards guarding the entrance to the palace, and it doesn't seem as chaotic inside as it is outside.
Zhu Gui wanted to go in, but was stopped by two guards at the door.
"Stop, do you have a token?" One of the guards stopped Zhu Gui.
Zhu Gui raised his eyebrows and then revealed something from his sleeves.
Before the guard could see what it was, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. When he lowered his head, he saw that a large amount of blood had stained his armor.
Before he had time to figure out what happened, he saw that another companion had fallen.
Zhu Gui withdrew the pistol with the silencer expressionlessly, then pressed the two guards against the wall, while using their weapons and armor to support their bodies.
Viewed from a distance, nothing unusual about the two guards could be detected.
The small forest behind him was so frightened that he almost peed.
"Gui, Eunuch Gui, what happened to them?" Xiao Linzi asked, covering his mouth.
"They are asleep, come in with me." Zhu Gui said calmly.
"You didn't say before that your friend was in the imperial concubine's palace?" Xiao Linzi said through gritted teeth, but now, does he still have a way out?
Zhu Gui ignored his complaints and walked directly into the palace.
The large areas of white silk and satin in the palace make it look like a funeral shed.
During this period, only a few palace maids, also wearing white mourning clothes, were busy.
When they saw Zhu Gui, a trace of surprise flashed in their eyes, but they did not step forward to stop him.
In their view, since the guard at the door has given permission, there is no problem.
In this way, Zhu Gui arrived at Guo Huifei's bedroom unimpeded.
I saw Guo Huifei in a white robe sitting on the bed folding clothes. She had no makeup on her face, her expression was dull, and her movements were very slow, just like a puppet.
Zhu Gui couldn't help feeling a little stinging in his heart. He hurriedly walked over, took Guo Huifei's arm and said, "Mom, are you okay?"
When Guo Huifei heard Zhu Gui's voice, her body was shocked. Then she turned around and looked at Zhu Gui, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Guier, why are you here? Mom, aren't you dreaming?"
