The Dog Eunuch Is Greedy
Li Shi Min and the others left.
Before he left, he generously gave Gu Hao a carriage.
When Gu Hao arrived at the gate of the Lotus Garden again, the four Golden Guards looked at him differently.
A luxurious carriage stopped in front of the door.
"Top scholar, please get in the car."
In front of the carriage, a middle-aged man with a pale face and no beard smiled and said in a sharp voice.
"Sorry to trouble you."
Gu Hao thanked him.
Then, he boarded the carriage.
As soon as she entered the carriage, she smelled a pleasant fragrance.
It was already dark, and the curtains of the carriage had not been drawn. The carriage should have been completely dark.
Inside the carriage, there was a sparkling light.
On the edge of the carriage, there were pearls and gems that emitted a lustrous glow.
The spacious carriage, the soft and warm couch, and the fruit plates on both sides…
All of this made Gu Hao feel extremely comfortable.
However, when he returned to the antique shop, Gu Hao realized that he was thinking too much.
"This carriage…Didn't His Majesty give it to me?”
Gu Hao looked at the old man driving the carriage and asked suspiciously," You're not thinking of keeping it for yourself, are you?”
The middle-aged man's face stiffened and he said with a fake smile,""Scholar, don't joke around. This is Prince Changle's carriage. His Majesty only asked this old servant to send you home.”
After saying that, he added in his heart,"Besides, if I give you the carriage, how am I going to return to the palace?”
"No, I remember it very clearly. At that time, His Majesty said…do you have an empty carriage? Give him one." Gu Hao frowned and stared at the old man.
The middle-aged man shook his head and said," If you want this carriage, you have to get His Highness Changle's approval. Anyway, the order I received was to send the scholar home."”
As he spoke, he raised the horsewhip.
The carriage left.
Gu Hao cursed in his heart,'Dog eunuch.'
The next morning.
The sky was just beginning to brighten.
Three eunuchs wearing purple brocade robes knocked on the door of the antique shop.
"Scholar, come out quickly. The crystal cup that His Majesty has given you has arrived!”A eunuch in his thirties stood in the middle, knocking on the door of the antique shop while shouting in a sharp voice.
The peddlers and passers-by who had woken up early stopped in their tracks and looked at the three of them with respect and disdain.
They respected their identities and despised their bodies.
Gu Hao opened the door with sleepy eyes.
"Why are you so early?"
When he returned to the antique shop last night, he only fell asleep after thinking about the future.
"Hehe, it's getting late. The top scholar should first examine this crystal cup.”The eunuch in the middle laughed and led the eunuchs on both sides into the antique shop.
Then, a crystal cup appeared on the counter of the antique shop.
Gu Hao sized her up and was a little confused.
The more he looked at it, the more he felt that this crystal cup was very similar to the glass cups of the future.
Upon closer inspection, he realized that it really looked like the transparent glass used to hold orange juice.
"The scholar must be careful. The things that His Majesty rewarded you must not be lost or broken. Otherwise, you will be punished for disrespect.”the leading eunuch warned seriously.
Gu Hao curled his lips.
In his heart, the value of this crystal cup was no different from that of the glass cups in the future.
"Why are there still some impurities in this?”Gu Hao stared at the base of the crystal cup and found a black speck the size of a sesame seed. He didn't care anymore and gave it a level.
Inferior grade.
However…
"Don't worry, I'll definitely treat it as a family heirloom and keep it well.”
Gu Hao promised solemnly.
"It's indeed a family heirloom."
The leading eunuch said enviously.
When the Crown Prince wanted it, His Majesty was unwilling to give it to him.
Now that it was given to the top scholar, it could be seen how much His Majesty admired the top scholar.
Gu Hao laughed. He took out three silver ingots from his pocket and handed them to the three eunuchs.
"This trip has been hard on the three of you." Gu Hao said.
Soon after, he keenly noticed that after the three of them received the silver pieces, disappointment and disgust flashed across their eyes.
Gu Hao: "???"
Was he complaining that he had given too little?
One tael of broken silver per person was equivalent to one copper coin per person.
Was this too little?
Gu Hao recalled the three Golden Guards smiling when he gave them three strings of money yesterday.
"F * ck, that dog eunuch is greedy.”
Gu Hao immediately regretted giving the money.
Under such circumstances, it was better not to give it to him.
"Hehe, since the top scholar has accepted the crystal cup, the three of us will go back.”
After receiving the reward, the leading eunuch said with a fake smile and left with the other two eunuchs.
"Bad luck." As soon as they left the antique shop, the leading eunuch cursed in a low voice.
He had thought that this was a good job, but in the end, he only received a tael of silver as a reward.
"Bad luck."
Gu Hao stared at the backs of the three damn eunuchs and cursed under his breath.
He decided that he would never give the dog eunuch a single cent as a tip in the future!
After putting away the crystal cup in the inner courtyard, Gu Hao changed into the official uniform that was delivered yesterday and shone in front of the bronze mirror for a while.
"Perfect, no wonder that Princess Chang Le would chase after me.”
Gu Hao admired it narcissistically for a while. Then, he heard footsteps coming from the courtyard.
He didn't need to think to know who it was.
Dog friend…Zhang Shenzhi.
"I haven't had breakfast yet."
Gu Hao muttered.
