Wei Xiaobao's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing the fake empress dowager to tremble in fear. Only a few people knew that she had come to the palace to pretend to be the empress dowager. Other than those who had contacted her, only the hierarch and the hierarch wife knew. She knew that ever since the Cult Master married this wife, he had been promoting new people and trusting those youths. People like her from the older generation were getting less and less valued and trusted. Now that Wei Xiaobao knew who he was and that he was from the Divine Dragon Sect, it was highly possible that he was sent by Madam Hong. However, he was probably not here to assist him as Wei Xiaobao had said, but to monitor him. But she was still a little suspicious. Just as she was about to ask, Wei Xiaobao said,"Mao Dongzhu, I'm afraid you haven't given the scripture you obtained to Cult Master yet. Do you want to keep it for yourself?”
Mao Dongzhu heard that Wei Xiaobao knew his name and no longer had any doubts."This subordinate doesn't dare. It's only because the person who came to receive me hasn't arrived yet, so I haven't offered it to Cult Master yet.”
Thinking back to how she had always made Wei Xiaobao kneel when she saw him, the fake empress dowager's heart jumped. If Wei Xiaobao hated her because of this and said bad things about her in front of the sect leader, she would be finished. Thinking of this, the fake empress dowager hurriedly said,""I didn't know that you would come. This subordinate…this subordinate has offended you in the past!”
"Hey!" Wei Xiaobao waved his hand and pretended to be magnanimous." It doesn't matter. You're injured now, so I'll help you into the house first."”Wei Xiaobao walked over to the fake Empress Dowager and helped her up. The two of them entered the house together.
As soon as he entered the room, Mao Dongzhu pushed him away and knelt on the ground.""This subordinate greets lord. Cult Master Hong will enjoy eternal happiness and longevity.”When she heard Wei Xiaobao say this, she followed suit. Wei Xiaobao quickly helped her up and said,"This is absolutely not possible. We are now in the palace. You are the empress dowager and I am just a small eunuch.”
Mao Dongzhu wanted to make excuses, but Wei Xiaobao refused. Wei Xiaobao saw that she was seriously injured and told her to quickly heal herself. Mao Dongzhu took out a bottle of medicine and poured out a pill. After circulating his energy for a while, his breathing had stabilized.
"To tell you the truth, Empress Dowager, I was sent by Madam Hong to keep an eye on you people.”Mao Dongzhu thought to himself that this was indeed the case.
"Before I left, Cult Master instructed me in many ways not to reveal my identity.”
Mao Dongzhu heard him and asked,""Since Sect Master has given the order, I wonder why Sir…"
Wei Xiaobao cursed Mao Dongzhu for being an idiot. How could he survive in the palace if he didn't even understand this? He pretended to be dissatisfied and said,"It's just that a few days ago, I saw that you had already obtained the scripture, but you didn't immediately give it to the Cult Master, so I was a little worried."”
Mao Dongzhu was shocked and quickly said,""This subordinate deserves to die. I just obtained these books and haven't had the time to present them. You also know about this."
"Of course I know this, which is why I didn't report it to Cult Master.”Wei Xiaobao sat on the bed and looked at Mao Dongzhu." And you're the only one I'm telling about my identity. Don't let anyone else know." I also know that you're doing your best for Cult Master. I'll naturally report this to Cult Master. It's just that you're the empress dowager and you're living so comfortably in the palace. I'm just an ordinary little eunuch, but I'm not living as comfortably as you!”
"This subordinate doesn't have the slightest desire to enjoy life. I hope Sir can understand!”Mao Dongzhu was sweating profusely. If the Hierarch knew what Wei Xiaobao had said, he would not be able to live.
" Hehe, you don't have to be afraid." Wei Xiaobao was pleased to see her so scared. "We are all working hard for Cult Master. However, it was also possible to enjoy the royal treatment while doing things. However, if you're the only one enjoying it, that's not too good.”
Mao Dongzhu suddenly realized that this eunuch had told him about his identity as a secret envoy because he wanted him to use his power as the empress dowager to make his life more comfortable. After knowing this, the fake empress dowager naturally wouldn't give up this opportunity to curry favor. She hurriedly said,""Don't worry, my lord. I will give the order to promote you tomorrow. It just so happens that Hai Dafu is dead, so Daren will lower himself to do his duties first. He will make plans when he has the chance in the future.”
Wei Xiaobao dusted himself off and said,"That's good too. However, that little palace maid Rui Chu beside you, I see that she serves people very well.”Shuang 'er had not yet appeared, and Wei Xiaobao wanted to experience the feeling of being served. Seeing Rui Chutian's cute face, he wanted to be a servant girl.
Mao Dongzhu looked troubled." There's no precedent of a maid serving a eunuch in the palace," she said." It seems a little difficult."”But when he saw Wei Xiaobao's face darken, he quickly corrected himself."But don't worry, Milord. I will naturally think of a way.”
"That's good!" Wei Xiaobao stood up and looked out the window at Hai Dafu's corpse. Do you need me to help you solve it?"
Mao Dongzhu quickly replied that there was no need. Wei Xiaobao then left her bedroom and returned to Hai Dafu's residence.
The next day, Wei Xiaobao was sleeping soundly in his room when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. He stood up and asked,"Who is it?"
The voices of a few eunuchs came from outside the door."Congratulations, Eunuch Gui!" Wei Xiaobao knew that they were here to congratulate him on his promotion, so he got dressed and opened the door. He saw four eunuchs standing at the door, but what made him feel strange was that Rui Chu was also following behind.
At the front was a eunuch in his forties. When he saw Wei Xiaobao open the door, he smiled and said,"The Empress Dowager has issued an imperial decree to the Internal Affairs Bureau. Because Eunuch Hai Dafu has died of illness, Eunuch Gui has been ordered to take over the position of the Deputy Chief of the Shangshan Division.”"We just received the news and came to congratulate you," said another eunuch with a smile.”
Wei Xiaobao thought to himself that Mao Dongzhu was quite quick to get everything done so early. He quickly took out some silver notes and distributed them to the eunuchs as a reward for the good news. When he handed them to Rui Chu, she said,"I was ordered by the Empress Dowager to take care of the Empress Dowager's food. When I met these people on the way, they brought me here. From now on, I will be your subordinate."
Wei Xiaobao saw that Rui Chu was not too happy, so he did not insist. The eunuch in his forties said,""Eunuch Gui has been promoted. No matter what, we have to drink some wine to celebrate!”When the other eunuchs heard him say this, they also joined in. In his previous life, Wei Xiaobao had often encountered such situations in university. Whenever a person had something to do, a group of people would go out to drink and congratulate him, so he happily agreed. So they immediately locked the door and went to the Shang Catering Department to eat and drink.
This Shangshan Department was in charge of buying food and dishes in the palace. It was originally a fertile yamen. When they heard that the leader was going to be changed, a group of people had long been waiting at the door to curry favor. As soon as Wei Xiaobao and the others arrived, a group of people immediately came up to fawn over them. After they finished talking, the few of them gathered together to drink and chat. It was also very lively. A eunuch said," Eunuch Hai is a very good person. It's just that he's blind and his health isn't good. Although he manages the affairs of the Shang Catering Division, he rarely comes here a few times a year.”
"That's true. If it wasn't for the fact that the Emperor remembered that he was the former Emperor's favorite subject, he would have been replaced long ago." However, there is no need for the adults to worry about the work of the Shang Catering Division. We servants will naturally do a good job.”
Wei Xiaobao understood what was going on. The eunuchs then began to talk about how hard it was to be a eunuch in the Qingshui Yamen, and how Wei Xiaobao must not be as stubborn as Eunuch Hai. Wei Xiaobao raised his glass and said loudly,"I naturally know the hardships of being a eunuch. In the future, everyone will do what they should do.”
The eunuchs saw that he was so tactful and were very happy. They raised their cups and drank. When they were done eating and drinking, the leading eunuch handed Wei Xiaobao two notes worth a thousand taels of silver. Naturally, Wei Xiaobao accepted them.
Everyone went to work, leaving only him and Rui Chu. Wei Xiaobao looked at Rui Chu pouting and asked,"What's wrong with you?"
"The Empress Dowager asked me to serve you, but you kept drinking and I couldn't help much.”
Wei Xiaobao laughed. So this was what she was worried about? Wei Xiaobao smiled to himself. He thought Rui Chu was unhappy because she was sent by the Empress Dowager to serve him. He thought that Mao Dongzhu was tactful and said,"Hehe, drinking? You can just pour me wine in the future. You don't even know how to do this.”Rui Chu suddenly realized and patted her head.""Yeah, why didn't I think of that?”
Wei Xiaobao was overjoyed. This Rui Chu seemed to be on par with Shuang 'er. He smiled and said,"Why are you called Ruichu?"
Rui Chu scratched her head and looked at the roof. She thought for a long time before saying,""I don't know either. It seems like I've been like this ever since I entered the palace.”Wei Xiaobao looked at her cute actions and liked her even more. Thinking of the twins he had yet to get, Wei Xiaobao said,"How about this, from now on you will be called Dan 'er, Ruichu doesn't sound good.”
Rui Chu also clapped her hands and said,"Dan 'er sounds good and easy to write, so I'll be called Dan' er."”
Seeing that she didn't object, Wei Xiaobao was happy. Even if he didn't have Shuang 'er now, he still had Dan' er. After everything was settled, Rui Chu, no, Dan 'er, moved into a small house not far from Wei Xiaobao's place, so that she could take care of him.
