Eunuchs who traveled through the Qing Dynasty

Liu Deliang smiled and said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, there are quite a few acquaintances of Xiao Liangzi in the Criminal Justice Division, who should be able to help."

Of course Xiao Ran knows that this guy is the one who employs people at the front and not at the back, as long as he is willing to associate with them, they must be of some use.The two rushed to the Xingshen Division in a hurry, and after inquiring, Xueyao had indeed closed the well prison.This Xing Shensi does not treat the prisoners like the prisons outside. There are so many people locked up in one cell. In fact, there will never be so many prisoners in the palace, but once the prison is closed, it will be the crime of beheading.

Liu Deliang entrusted someone to talk and went in. After a while, an eunuch came out, usually a rank eight, and turned out to be a deacon in the palace (from rank eight, the rank is slightly lower than the chief eunuch).The man was more polite when he saw Liu Deliang, and said: "You came to see me so late, what's the matter?"

Liu Deliang said that he was about to pass by.When the man heard that this was actually the famous leader Xiao of Kunning Palace, his expression immediately became respectful, but then he said awkwardly: "This matter is really troublesome. After all, it is the decree issued by the Lord Long Live himself, who dares to disrespect it? Duan is humble and has little power, so I'm afraid he can't help much."

Xiao Ran took out the banknote and stuffed it in, and said: "This is a little bit of meaning. Brother Duan will keep it first, and someone will send the money later. Since there are no outsiders, I will just say it straight: this maid is the most caring lady of the queen's master." Girl, the master naturally wants to protect her. Now I just ask Brother Duan for your convenience, no matter what, let her get rid of the flower pole first, can it be done?"

More than 200 taels of silver is not a small amount.The deacon was called Duan Xingnian. Although he was a eunuch, he was only purified at the age of 17, so he was born tall and big.This person is also straightforward. After thinking for a while, he took the silver ticket and said: "To tell you the truth, this flower pole is a rule set by Lord Yongzheng, so it is absolutely impossible. But we brothers It's the one who eats this bowl of rice, and the subordinates will keep it, so it will definitely keep that girl safe. As for the money, after your Eunuch Xiao called you, Duan is not a person who loves money, so he shouldn't want it. But the subordinates A bunch of people..."

Xiao Ran waved his hand and said: "There's no need to say that, just one word to you, Xiao Ran wants to teach you as a friend. Brother Duan, I have another sentence, out of my mouth, into your ears, I wonder if you want to hear it? "

Duan Xingnian coughed and glanced at Liu Deliang.Liu Deliang is a delicate person, so he didn't need to say it clearly, so he retreated on his own.Seeing that there was no one else, Xiao Ran pondered for a while before saying, "Brother Duan still has family?"

Duan Xingnian hesitated, and said hesitantly: "There is an old lady in my old family, with three younger brothers and one younger sister."

"Brother Duan, how much money can he earn in a year in this Xing Shen Division?"

Taking a closer look at him, Duan Xingnian said, "Brother's official position is too low, and his annual salary is only 27 taels. Adding the daily lottery, there must be 60 taels."

He didn't lie about that.Xing Shensi is very famous, but in fact he is only in charge of eunuchs and maids. Ordinary poor ghosts, even if they deduct money on weekdays, they really can't squeeze out much money.During the holidays, they still have to give gifts to their bosses, the heads of the various palaces, and the general manager. If there are five or sixty taels left, it is considered too much.Xiao Ran took a step closer, and said in a low voice: "Okay, I'll send someone later, and I'll send you a silver note of 60 taels to elder brother."

Duan Xingnian was taken aback, 2000 taels, how much silver is that?I have never seen so much money in my life!Hastily waved his hands and said: "This is absolutely unacceptable..."

Xiao Ran grabbed his hand and said: "I also want to ask my elder brother, if the money is directly used to get that girl out, is it enough?"

These words were like a thunderbolt, which made Duan Xingnian speechless for a long time. 2000 taels, if someone kills someone, he doesn't know how many times he died.But if it is to save someone, and it is a key criminal who violated the emperor's order, the money will be hot to hold.Seeing his hesitation, Xiao Ran simply continued: "Brother, in this palace, there are no friends you can point to. Although I met Brother Duan for the first time, I felt very close in my heart, so I dared to say this. Brother Duan If you don't want to do it, brothers don't force it, just pretend you haven't heard it; if it's too little, as long as you say the number, Xiao Ran will definitely give it to you!"

For eunuchs, child eunuchs are popular, and it is very difficult for people who enter the palace halfway to mix.Duan Xingnian entered the palace at the age of 17, and it took him 16 years to become a deacon. In this life, he really has no great expectations.And these eunuchs are nothing more than poor families, not thinking about themselves, but also thinking about their families.Xiao Ran also grasped this point, so he boldly said this, which also hit his weakness.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't bear the temptation of the money after all. Besides, the person who saved the queen was the one who saved the queen. If the sky fell, the queen would support her!Thinking of this, Duan Xingnian gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! Now that we've come to this point, brother Cheng, you can see that the old Duan will go all out! However, Xing Shensi is no better than other places, let's You still have to think about it.”

Xiao Ran said: "How do you say that?"

Duan Xingnian said: "Prisoners in the Xing Shen Division must be registered in the register, but anyone who enters will be charged with beheading. If they are released like this, there will be more people involved, and half of the Forbidden City will be troubled. Everyone will be involved, and you and I can't afford it."

Xiao Ran knew that his words were not alarmist, but since he agreed, there must be a solution, so he nodded and listened to his next words.

"The only way is to think of a way to bring in a living person from outside the palace and name this girl. It is a felony for this girl to violate the emperor's order. It is estimated that she will be executed in a day or two at most. If she does it sooner, It shouldn't be noticed."

"Okay! This is the trick!" Xiao Ran slapped his thigh, thought for a while, and suddenly said: "There is no need to look for this person from outside. I will pay another 1000 taels, and you help me send someone in this palace ,how?"

Duan Xingnian never expected these words, he couldn't help opening his mouth, and looked Xiao Ran up and down for a long time.Seeing that handsome face with raised eyebrows, cold eyes showing a murderous look, it really makes people feel creepy.Duan Xingnian was quite surprised that this young guy was actually a cruel master.But after thinking about it, if this person hadn't been very skilled, he would never have climbed so fast and became the youngest chief eunuch in the palace!

As soon as I thought about it, I simply said ruthlessly: "If you don't do it, you will never stop. If you do it, you will make a big one! Brother, tell me, who do you want to take care of?"

Xiao Ran sneered, and said: "Who is this person, I will tell you later! Now you should think of a way to let me meet that maid."

It has always been a rule that money is easy to do.Duan Xingnian took the more than 200 taels of silver in his pocket and scattered all the way, and he really brought him to the well supervisor.At this time Xueyao was lying face-in on a pile of messy grass, her hair was fluffy, her clothes were messy, and she lost all her former spirit.Xiao Ran quickly pulled her shoulders, and said softly: "Xueyao, I'm here to see you!"

Xueyao was surprised and delighted when she heard this familiar voice, and when she looked back, it was the little third son who was thinking about it!She couldn't help but threw herself into his arms, and burst into tears.Xiao Ran's heart ached for a while, although this girl could be petty, but she was really good to him from the bottom of her heart.Looking at that pretty face again, how can it not break your heart?Reaching out and gently stroking her hair, she said softly: "Be good, girl, don't cry yet. As long as I'm here, I won't let you suffer any harm!"

After hearing this, Xueyao nodded vigorously.With great difficulty, she stopped her tears, and suddenly pushed him away, and then began to cry.While crying, she said: "Liar! You only remember that dead girl Yu Ting, what am I? You don't care about me, let me die clean!"

Xiao Ran was both angry and funny, thinking that you girl really has a way, and you don't even look at the time when you are jealous.However, hanging out with Yu Ting during this period of time really left her in the cold, so she couldn't help feeling a little guilty, and said with her arms around her shoulders: "If I don't have you in my heart, what are you doing here? Fool, if you really hate me, Then wait for you to go out and slap me a hundred or eighty times in one breath, okay?"

Xueyao chuckled, and said: "You have a big mouth of one hundred and eighty, so it won't turn you into a pig's head?" Her eyes just lit up, then darkened again, she shook her head and said, "Don't lie to me. If you have such a heart, it’s not in vain for me to treat you well. When they arrested me, they said that I violated the emperor’s order and it was a capital crime. But don’t worry, I will never say anything about that wild monk. You gave it to me. Even if you die, as long as you live well, it will be worth it..." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to caress Xiao Ran's cheek, and the tears couldn't stop dripping down.

Hearing this, Xiao Ran felt as if someone was grabbing his hand, and felt unspeakably uncomfortable.But now is not the time to be sad, he wiped Xueyao's tears, and said in a low voice: "Girl, listen carefully: you will definitely not die, and I will definitely rescue you in one to two days at the latest Go! Now you don't need to say anything else, first tell me, which house is the bitch who betrayed you, and what's his name?"

Xue Yao half-believingly said: "That person...is from Shoukang Palace, he is from my hometown, and his name is Caifeng."

Xiao Ran's eyeballs widened in an instant.Damn it's still from the same town!What he hates the most is things that sell friends and seek glory. This kind of bastard will not be able to relieve his hatred even if he eats it alive.Xiao Ran punched the wall hard, gritted his teeth, and said: "Caifeng! Fuck you, you dare to touch my bastard, today I will let you know what will happen if you betray your friend!"

Having said that, after all, making a move in the Ouchi Imperial Palace is like dancing on the tip of a knife. Whether it succeeds or not, everyone's heart is sweating.

→Chapter 017 - Misfortunes and blessings?←

After briefly explaining a few words to Duan Xingnian, he left Xing Shensi.Xiao Ran sent Liu Deliang away.Although this kid is insidious, he can take advantage of it at a moment's notice. He casually drew N large cakes and said a few half-spoken words, which made Liu Deliang's heart itch, wishing he could directly worship Xiao Ran as his master.

Back at Kunning Palace, Baolu happened to take the bank note and came back, out of breath.The lights on the queen's side were still on, obviously not asleep, but Xiao Ran didn't go over to disturb them.He packed up a eunuch's uniform, wrapped it in cloth and tied it around his waist.After finally staying up until the fourth watch, he went out to Shoukang Palace, came to the back of a dragon stele, and whistled softly.From nowhere in the darkness, two figures popped out from nowhere, which startled Xiao Ran.

One was tall and the other was short, the taller one had long arms and broad shoulders, very mighty, with a handkerchief around his neck, with two sparkling eyes exposed, it was Duan Xingnian.The shorter one didn't recognize him, Duan Xingnian explained: "Brother can't do this alone, this is my helper, brother who is in charge, and is famous for his lightness."

Xiao Ran saw that although he was short, he looked capable.He took out the bank note and handed it over, saying: "This is 2000 taels, and there is still [-] taels later, and it will be delivered within today."

Duan Xingnian didn't count them in detail, took the banknotes and put them in his arms, saying: "I trust you." Turning around to make a move, Xiao Ran dragged him back, saying: "There is one more thing: that bitch If I want to live, I will personally serve and serve her!"

In the darkness, he could only see his two eyes faintly glowing blue, and Duan Xingnian also looked a little nervous.After pondering for a moment, he nodded.

When a group of night guards passed by, Duan Xingnian pulled up his handkerchief to cover his face, and said to the short man, "Do it!" The two of them walked across the open space with short bodies, like civet cats, and disappeared into the shadow of the palace wall .After a pause, the two figures turned over the wall one after the other, their movements were extremely neat without making any sound.

After the funeral of Empress Dowager Kangci, there was only one sick old concubine left in the Shoukang Palace, and two princesses, Shouzhuang and Shouxi, who were the eighth and ninth daughters of Emperor Daoguang. I am not married yet.Shoukang Palace is usually quiet, and Xiao Ran believes that it will be the same after tonight.

In fact, the palace is far less peaceful than imagined outside, and dead people happen from time to time.Concubines and concubines in the harem are jealous and vie for favor, intrigues;Occasionally, a eunuch and court lady suddenly disappears, which is very common.At most, it was handed over to the Ministry of Internal Affairs to investigate for ten and a half months, and a piece of paper "disappeared", and a brand new unjust dead ghost was born.

However, Xiao Ran's arms still trembled slightly.His personality is very strange. Whenever such a critical moment comes, his body is obviously tense, but his mind is surprisingly calm.And his nervousness at this time is not entirely because of fear, but more of a kind of excitement, a kind of excitement of revenge!

In his previous life, he belonged to the kind of cautious and cautious person, and he was not very courageous. He even chopped off a chicken with a knife, and the chicken feathers flew all over the sky.I don't know if it's because of his death once, but after his rebirth, even his personality has changed.Now he has only one belief: If people don't attack me, I won't attack others; if people attack me, I will fuck you to death!

After half an hour, the figures on the palace wall flickered, Duan Xingnian and the others turned out, and Xiao Ran hurried up to meet them.The two carried a big cloth bag, nodded slightly at Xiao Ran, sneaked along the wall, and arrived at the Ningxiang Garden behind the palace.

This place is actually a big garden. Once the autumn wind passes and the flowers fade away, naturally few people come here.The three of them untied the cloth bag, and shook out a woman, tied up, with a rag stuffed in her mouth, and she was terrified.Xiao Ran asked Duan Xingnian if he had a knife, Duan Xingnian shook his head, but the short man took out a gleaming dagger.Seeing this appearance, the woman was so frightened that she almost fainted.

Xiao Ran slashed her face lightly with a dagger, and said: "I just want to ask you one thing, if you tell the truth, I won't kill you, understand?"

The woman nodded repeatedly, and suddenly there was an unpleasant smell from her crotch.

"Your name is Caifeng, isn't it?"

As soon as the woman nodded, Xiao Ran pulled the rag from her mouth with his left hand, and quickly pierced the dagger in her mouth with his right hand.This was surprisingly fast, before the woman could react, she felt a burst of indescribable pain, she only let out a muffled groan, and she fainted.

Duan Xingnian didn't expect that Xiao Ran would do it if he said so, and he would do it so ruthlessly, so he hurriedly stopped him and said, "Brother, I can't kill him now!"

Xiao Ran paused and said: "Of course, I just cut her tongue." Pulling out the dagger, blood spurted out, bringing out a black mass, which was still steaming.Duan Xingnian stared at it, and to prevent the woman from bleeding to death, he quickly picked up the cloth and stuffed it into her mouth.

Xiao Ran dragged the dagger on the sole of his shoe, and returned it to the short one.The three of them kept bringing the woman to Xing Shensi, Xiao Ran took out the eunuch uniform and handed it to Duan Xingnian, and waited outside by himself.During this period of Xingnian, he was the deacon of Xing Shensi, and he slipped away money again, all the way unimpeded.After a while, a handsome little eunuch came out, it was Xueyao.

At this time, Xueyao felt like she was in a dream, she could only follow Xiao Ran all the way, and when she arrived at Shenwumen, the palace gate just happened to open.It was still dark, and the gate guard couldn't see Xue Yao's appearance clearly, so they took Xiao Ran's waist card and respectfully let the two of them out.

The two of them arrived at the beauty salon without stopping.This place is too exposed, Xiao Ran didn't dare to arrange Xueyao here, took the money from Xiang Yulai, hired a sedan chair and went to Tianshuijing Hutong area, and then found an inn to settle her down.

After doing all this, the sky has gradually brightened.Hastily rushed back to Kunning Palace, only to find that the queen hadn't slept all night.Seeing Xiao Ran, he quickly drank the other maids and asked, "How is it?"

Xiao Ran deliberately sighed, and said: "I'm afraid this girl will fail! She couldn't spare her after a meal, and now she has breathed in but not vented out! If the master is distressed, it's only right to approve the beheading quickly, then The girl is also relieved!"
