A moment later, Ning Chen looked at his " masterpiece " and laughed foolishly. He was indeed a genius.
Under the dim light, the woman in front of him disappeared and was replaced by an authentic eunuch with unkempt hair and dirty face.
The woman didn't know how to appreciate it and was expressionless. Ning Chen stood there and watched for a while, but the woman didn't praise him. He was a little angry. Forget it. He was a big man. He wouldn't argue with a small woman.
Ning Chen dragged the old eunuch under the bed and laid down on it. He stared at the woman and said worriedly,""When the Imperial Army soldiers come, you have to slash down with your saber. You have to hit them accurately!”
The woman understood and nodded gently. She took the knife for cleaning and quietly walked to Ning Chen's side. She calmly took off his pants.
"What's going on? Why aren't you lighting up?"
Not long after, several soldiers of the Imperial Army walked in with sonorous footsteps. The leader was dressed in bright green armor. He swept his gaze across the room and asked sternly,
"Swoosh!"
Before she could finish her sentence, the knife in the woman's hand fell, splashing blood all over the woman's face. The bright red blood flowed down the woman's cheek, making her dirty face even more blurry.
"The strong wind blew out the candles. It's not a big deal. This kind of thing has been done many times. It's fine even without a light."
the woman said in a hoarse voice. The shining saber in her hand was dyed red with blood. The dim light and the strange atmosphere made the Imperial Army soldiers at the door feel a chill in their pants.
Seeing the young man's pants covered in blood, the Imperial Army soldiers felt a chill in their hearts. The clean room was a filthy and unlucky place. If it wasn't for an order, no one would be willing to come here.
"Let's go check the other places."
Seeing that there was nothing wrong, the leader waved his hand and led the Imperial Army behind him away from this troublesome place.
Ning Chen, who could not hold on any longer, sat up. He sucked in a breath of cold air in pain and gritted his teeth.
"Woman, you did it on purpose."
He was only half an inch away from saying goodbye to the man just now. Moreover, the cut was so deep. Even if he was not eunuch, he would have bled to death.
"Yeah."
The woman nodded her head honestly. Ning Chen was so angry that he almost fainted. How could she bully someone like this?
" What do we do next?" the woman asked.
She knew that this was only the beginning. The Imperial Palace would definitely be under martial law for a long time. If she could not escape, she would be discovered sooner or later.
" Oh right, I haven't asked you what you've done. So many people are trying to catch you." Ning Chen was very curious. The moment he woke up, he saw such a spectacular scene of the Imperial Army going on a rampage. God really took care of him.
"The assassination of the Xia Emperor has failed."
The woman was very calm, and so was Ning Chen. After a moment, he exclaimed," What?"
Seeing the woman's sharp gaze, Ning Chen smiled awkwardly." I've lost my composure."
She leaned back unconsciously. This woman was a ruthless person. She mustn't go crazy and kill herself.
"You haven't answered yet. What should we do next?"
the woman asked again.
"Wait!"
This time, Ning Chen was very obedient and quickly told him the plan." Soon, a eunuch will come over to carry the person. This place has just been checked, and there shouldn't be any Imperial Army soldiers coming tonight. You stay here first. Remember, don't try to escape."
The woman stared at Ning Chen for a long time and nodded slightly, indicating that she would listen to his opinion.
Sure enough, not long after, two young eunuchs came over and carried Ning Chen away without a word.
The woman quietly watched Ning Chen leave. Her bright eyes looked so beautiful under the light that even her bloodstained face could not hide it.
Not long after, in a spacious room, two young eunuchs carried Ning Chen to the bed. The rows of beds next to him were filled with newbies who had just been castrated. Some of them had fainted and had not woken up yet, while others were crying secretly. No one knew if it was because of pain or something else.
The medicine to stop bleeding and treat injuries was in the room. Everyone had one. This was only a temporary residence. Tomorrow, someone would arrange for them to return. Those who were lucky could have a good future with noble people like concubines and princes. If they were unlucky, they could only be arranged to do some chores in places like the laundry workshop.
After he was temporarily safe, Ning Chen calmed down and thought about what he should do in the future. He couldn't stay in the palace forever. There were many people here and many eyes. If he wasn't careful, he would be discovered to be a fake eunuch. At that time, he would definitely be chopped into pieces by the old emperor.
That woman's methods were as troublesome as her face. She was a ruthless person who even dared to assassinate the emperor. He really couldn't afford to offend her. Now, the first thing he had to consider was how to send this great aunt away. Otherwise, if she was in a bad mood and really killed him, he wouldn't have a place to cry even if he wanted to.
He didn't know if it was because he had lost too much blood from the woman's slash or if he was really too tired, but Ning Chen fell asleep heartlessly as he thought about it. Only his low crying sound complemented the sound of the rain outside the house, and it didn't stop throughout the night.
——
Happy times were always very short. Just when Ning Chen was sleeping soundly, the sky unknowingly brightened. The early morning sun was not beautiful because it meant that his eunuch career had officially begun.
After the rainy night, the sky was very clear. Ning Chen limped out of the house, holding on to the wall. He walked around twice and breathed in the fresh air outside. He was in a good mood and was about to express his admiration for the beauty in his heart. However, he was choked by a duck's voice. He felt uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly.
"Whose little brat is this? Don't block my path!"
Dressed in a sapphire blue robe embroidered with cranes, holding a horsetail whisk in his hand, wearing a peacock hat with a gemstone on top, his skin was extremely fair. Coupled with that neither feminine nor masculine face, he looked like a crippled Dongfang Bubai. Ning Chen suppressed the churning feeling in his stomach and took a step back to avoid it. However, he accidentally touched his wound and grimaced in pain.
"This lowly one greets Father-in-law. Father-in-law, be blessed and safe!"
"Hmm?"
Zhao Jin stopped in his tracks and looked at the young man in front of him curiously. He asked,
"Ten Thousand Fortune Golden Peace? What a strange greeting. Who did you learn it from?”
"I'm finished!"
Ning Chen knew that he had said something wrong when he heard that. However, he had just arrived here, so he didn't know how to greet him. Now that things had come to this, he could only make up a story.
"Greetings, Eunuch. This one was shocked by Eunuch's imposing manner and forgot the rules of my hometown to express my respect to the elders. This one has lost my composure. I hope Eunuch can forgive this one for being insensible."
Ning Chen was disgusted by what he said, especially when he saw that the old eunuch had smeared something on his body. The smell was strange and made his vessels churn. He wanted to slap this old man to death.
"Smart little guy, come with us from now on."
Only then did Zhao Jin size up the former and nod his head in satisfaction. He was a good material. If he trained her well, she should be able to help him a lot.
"Follow you, my ass!"
Ning Chen cursed in his heart, but he still had a smile on his face." Thank you for your kindness, Eunuch. I'm new to the palace and I don't understand many things. I'm very happy that you didn't abandon me."
"En, not bad. In the future, you can call me Eunuch Zhao. What's your name?"
"Ning Chen!"
" En, I'll call you Little Ning Zi from now on," Zhao Jin nodded and said with satisfaction.
"Damn you!"
Upon hearing this form of address, Ning Chen couldn't help but blurt out these four words. This time, he really couldn't hold it in anymore.
"Hmm? What did you say?"
Zhao Jin frowned slightly. He did not understand what his grandpa meant, but there seemed to be a trace of dissatisfaction in this kid's tone, which made him unhappy.
" No, it's nothing. Eunuch Zhao gave me a name. I'm too happy." Ning Chen smiled brightly like a blooming flower. Little Ning, your whole family is Little Ning.
" I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving first. Little Ning, there are many rules in the palace. You have to learn them carefully." After saying that, Zhao Jin swept the horsetail whisk in his hand and turned to leave.
"Whoosh!"
Ning Chen let out a long breath as he watched Eunuch Zhao leave. He reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead. In this world, the hardest thing to deal with was not women, but people who were neither male nor female.
" Which slave is blocking the way?" However, at this moment, a stern reprimand sounded in his ear again, scaring Ning Chen.
"Damn, come back!"
Ning Chen was furious." I'm standing in this damn place. How am I blocking your way?" He was about to fly into a rage on the spot, but when he saw the canopy embroidered with phoenix patterns, his anger was immediately doused with a basin of cold water.
"Oh my god, who is this?"
Four beautiful palace maids stood in front of her and behind her. A beautiful woman walked over. Her hair was combed into a bun, and her eyes were filled with spring. Her skin was as smooth as jade, and she was 70% beautiful and 30% charming. It was difficult for people to look away.
Ning Chen didn't know this woman, but he had never seen a pig run before. Such honor guards could be counted on one's fingers in the palace. Moreover, this woman was not to be trifled with. He would run away sooner or later. It was better to keep a low profile.
Ning Chen took a step back, then another step back. He bowed and lowered his head. He muttered," I'm just a passerby, you can't see me."
When the young eunuch in the lead saw Ning Chen make way, he snorted lightly and did not say anything more. As a slave, he did not dare to be too arrogant in front of his master.
"Wait a minute!"
After Wan Yunshang took two steps, she suddenly stopped. She glanced at Ning Chen and said,"
"Why not?"
At this time, the four palace maids and the young eunuch finally realized that this unfamiliar guy had not knelt down since the beginning. If Imperial Concubine Wan had not spoken, they would not have reacted.
"This lowly one is new to the palace and doesn't know the palace's rules. I hope Your Highness can forgive me." Knowing that he couldn't muddle through, Ning Chen sighed softly in his heart and said respectfully.
"You know now?"
"I know."
"Then why don't you kneel!"
"A newly purified body cannot be controlled, Your Majesty is wise."
Wan Yunshang refused to let go, and Ning Chen also refused to kneel. After a moment of stalemate, Wan Yunshang's lips curled up, and her pair of terrifying eyes carefully sized up the youth in front of her.
"Oh? I see, then forget it."
"Thank you, Empress!"
Ning Chen heaved a sigh of relief. He lowered his head slightly to hide the arrogance in his eyes. His tone was as respectful as ever.
