When Wei Qi received the message, he strode in.
Eunuch Gao was already sitting in the hall, his face cold.
"I really didn't expect you to actually dare to come and see me! Looks like you really aren't afraid of death." Eunuch Gao's cold eyes swept over Wei Qi, his expression sinister.
"Eunuch Gao, what are you saying? This lowly one feels that there is a misunderstanding between me and Eunuch Gao. This lowly one has come back to give you a gift and also to apologize.”
With that, Wei Qi smiled. With a flip of his hand, a large luminous pearl appeared in front of Eunuch Gao.
As the saying goes, a fist does not hit a smiling face. Moreover, this was a gift from the Empress to Wei Qi.
"Hmm? Apologize?" Eunuch Gao glanced at it and sneered."Why are you apologizing?”
"Eunuch Gao, you can suspect whatever you want, but the matter of Concubine Zhu really has nothing to do with this lowly one. Besides, this lowly one is just a dog slave, how can this lowly one have the ability to topple Concubine Zhu? This lowly one also knows that Eunuch Gao has an extraordinary relationship with Concubine Zhu, but the one who issued the decree is the Empress. How can this lowly one, a mere dog servant, influence the Empress?”
Wei Qi's face was filled with righteous indignation, and he kept complaining for himself.
"Humph! Concubine Zhu has treated me with kindness as heavy as a mountain. This time, you came alone and still dare to complain in front of me. Your courage is really not small!”Eunuch Gao played with a jade thumb ring in his left hand, his voice extremely cold.
"Eunuch Gao, you won't kill me.”Wei Qi shook his head, appearing extremely confident.
"Oh? Why won't I kill you? In my eyes, you're just an ant. You'll disappear whenever I want you to. Your life is up to me.”
Eunuch Gao narrowed his eyes as he spoke. What he said was the truth. Eunuch Gao was the head of the eunuchs in the harem, and it was simply too easy for him to kill someone in the harem.
Wei Qi's gaze turned directly to Eunuch Gao, not showing any intention of avoiding him."It's very simple. Even if Consort Zhu doesn't fall today, sooner or later, Eunuch Gao will make her fall.”
Eunuch Gao's expression changed.
"What do you mean?"
"It's very simple. Eunuch Gao, you are the head eunuch and a first-class official. In the harem, you are second only to one person and above all others.”
"Similarly, Eunuch Gao has always been at odds with the Empress, but the Empress is still the Empress and Eunuch Gao is only a servant. That's why I brought out Consort Zhu so that you can compete with her in the Inner Palace.”
"Unfortunately, whether it is the Empress or Consort Zhu, they are both masters and concubines, while Eunuch Gao is only a servant.”
"If there comes a day when Consort Zhu is no longer under your control, I wonder where you plan to go, Eunuch Gao?”
"Moreover, Consort Zhu is becoming more and more controlled. Eunuch Gao, you probably no longer have as much control as before, right?”
"Presumably, any woman who is loved by thousands of people would not be willing to be manipulated by you, Eunuch Gao.”
"The only choice is to blow your head off.”
"When you fall, she takes over."
After he finished speaking, Wei Qi sat down and looked calm and composed. He looked as if he was not worried at all.
The eunuchs who were standing by his side were all shocked.
Did this Wei Qimo want to die? This story was absurd and bizarre. Wasn't he afraid that Eunuch Gao would get angry and drag him out to beat him to death?
However, to everyone's surprise, the expected anger did not come. Instead, he stared at Wei Qi with a deep fear in his eyes.
Thinking back, when he was as old as Wei Qi, he had just entered the palace and did not know anything. He could only be bullied all day.
And just now, Wei Qi's analysis was like a worm in Eunuch Gao's stomach, almost voicing out his thoughts.
This scheming was no longer like a person who was only eighteen or nineteen years old. He was simply like a middle-aged wily old fox.
The depth of this kid's schemes was simply terrifying.
Eunuch Gao coldly looked at Wei Qi, then suddenly burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, very good. Everyone says that your martial arts are not bad, Seventh Wei. In my opinion, the thing that should be praised the most is your brain.”
Eunuch Gao looked at Wei Qi with admiration."However, this matter won't end so easily. My eighth son, Liu Hairun, has lost his power. You have to give me an explanation for this matter no matter what.”
Without hesitation, Wei Qi knelt on one knee and cupped his fists respectfully.""Greetings, foster father!"
As he spoke, Wei Qi immediately handed over the Night-Luminescent Pearl with both hands.
"Although this luminous pearl was bestowed by the empress and the gift is a little small, it is a child's kind intention.”
"Good, good, good! Wei Qi, I was right about you." Eunuch Gao casually took the silver notes and placed them on the table, the admiration in his eyes deepening.
It was just a luminous pearl, so Eunuch Gao naturally didn't care about it, but it was rare to see such a perceptive young man.
Martial arts could be practiced if one was not good enough, but scheming was something that was very difficult to cultivate.
"Wei Qi, from now on, you are my ninth son! In this palace, no one will make things difficult for you! And from now on, you have to do your best to assist Ming Fei. Do you understand?”
Eunuch Gao waved his hand, appearing high-spirited, his words carrying double meanings.
"Yes, sir! From now on, your son will definitely follow your lead!”Wei Qi took the opportunity to say.
"Haha, good. If there's nothing else, you can go back first. Remember, do your best and don't embarrass me.”
"Yes, sir!"
Wei Qi bowed to Eunuch Gao and turned to leave.
"Old Fulin, what do you think?”
After Wei Qi left, Eunuch Gao waved his hand and dismissed the attendants before speaking indifferently into the room.
"Godfather, I think that Wei Qi is cunning and extremely sinister. You must subdue such a person, but you still need to suppress him from time to time. Otherwise, once he grows up one day, he will definitely become a big problem for Godfather.”
In the originally empty room, a figure suddenly walked out from the shadows. The man spoke in an extremely low voice, his cold voice devoid of any emotion.
"Looks like you also think that Wei Qi is a talent?”Eunuch Gao lightly said as he played with the jade on his finger.
"If used well, he will be a hero of his generation. If not handled properly, he will be a hero of the world.”
Old Fulin bowed to Eunuch Gao and said respectfully.
