"Eunuch Order, Feng Ye, the maidservant of Wangyi Palace, has something to report."

Feng Ye looked at the eunuch Ling Zhao Zhong with his back turned to her, and bowed slightly to salute.

"What's the matter?"

Zhao Zhong was waiting for the news, but he did not expect Maple Leaf to arrive.

"Empress Hu Ji is not feeling well today, so she summoned Imperial Physician Wu from the Imperial Hospital."

"But the maid felt that this consultation was weird, but she couldn't tell what was wrong."

Maple Leaf's eyes showed confusion.

"Exactly word for word, let's listen to it."

Zhao Zhong suddenly became interested, turned around, looked at Fengye and said.

It was His Majesty's intention to install eyeliner in the palace, and he was just running errands.

Feng Ye immediately recounted the conversation between Hu Ji and Wu Taiyi from beginning to end, word for word.

Zhao Zhong was also a little suspicious when he heard it, but he didn't hear anything wrong.

There are some ghost stories in the imperial doctor's treatment of diseases.

The Imperial Physician has another name, that is, the Witch Doctor.

It's just that in the court, the name of witch doctor is not very pleasant. After His Majesty ruled the world, he changed his name to imperial doctor.

Fasting, bathing, and burning incense to worship heaven are also normal, and he didn't find any problems in it.

"Are you being too sensitive?"

Zhao Zhong stroked it word by word, but failed to find any useful clues.

"Eunuch Ling, Empress Hu Ji is indeed very wrong today."

The maid, Feng Ye, still insisted on her own way.

What went wrong, she couldn't tell, anyway, it was a feeling, maybe her tone was wrong?

Can't tell the taste?

That's why the eunuch order failed to find any useful clues?

"you sure?"

"Once it is reported to Your Majesty, if what you say is false, it will be a crime of deceiving the emperor."

Zhao Zhong said in a deep voice.

"I may feel wrong!"

Feng Ye shrank her neck, the crime of bullying the king, but the felony of extermination, how dare she use her feelings to gamble the lives of the whole family?

"Go and get the reward money!"

"Remember, next time you provide information, it must be accurate, and you can't just do things with your feelings."

Zhao Zhong shook his head, not in a good mood.

"Yes, the maid will leave."

"Thank you for the eunuch's order."

Feng Ye felt a little guilty, thanked her quickly, and then left the hall.

After waiting for Maple Leaf to leave, Zhao Zhong felt a little uneasy, why hasn't anyone come to restore his life yet?

Could something be wrong?

Thinking of this, Zhao Zhong's face darkened instantly.

Did I underestimate Zhao Gao?

Chapter 36 Gou Jian, King of Yue

"This subordinate has seen the eunuch Cheng."

The Palace Commander of Ganquan Palace saluted immediately when he saw the visitor.

"Our family was ordered by the eunuch to see Zhao Gao and ask about some important matters."

The eunuch Cheng bluntly stated his intentions, and commanded the palace order to Ganquan Palace.

"Please."

The commander of Ganquan Palace felt a little uneasy, after all, the first rank of the official rank crushed people, not to mention that the eunuch's rank was much higher than his own.

He honestly led the way, until he came to an old hut in Ganquan Palace, and then he smiled and said: "Eunuch Cheng, Zhao Gao is inside."

"Our family went in and asked Zhao Gao. You are guarding outside. If anyone comes close, take it down."

After the eunuch Cheng finished speaking, he strode towards the hut.

"Here."

Several servants immediately stood outside and said respectfully.

Pushing open the door of the hut, Eunuch Cheng turned around and closed the door again.

Looking at Zhao Gao who was sitting on the wooden slum in the corner of the room, Eunuch Cheng walked over quickly, knelt down on one knee and said, "I have made you suffer because my son pays homage to my foster father."

Zhao Gao, who was dazed in a daze, came back to his senses, looked at the person, shook his head and sighed, "You shouldn't have come here."

"Father, the child came here by order of the eunuch."

Eunuch Cheng smiled slightly.

"Is His Majesty going to make a move?"

Zhao Gao's eyes showed a gleam, and he said in a deep voice.

"The adoptive father was joking. If His Majesty wants to do something, it will be the child's turn. It is Zhao Zhong who asked the child to come and humiliate the adoptive father."

Eunuch Cheng shook his head and said.

"As long as His Majesty doesn't do anything, who can make a wave in this deep palace compound? Zhao Zhong only dares to play tricks, and he doesn't dare to act recklessly."

Zhao Gao stood up, walked over, and slowly helped up the eunuch Cheng who was kneeling in front of him.

"Father, the brothers are all under surveillance."

The eunuch Cheng whispered to Zhao Gao.

"If your majesty wants to see it, just show it openly to your majesty, let your majesty take a good look at it, don't hide it."

Zhao Gao immediately understood the eunuch Cheng's intention, and couldn't help but laughed.

"Father, Your Majesty demoted you for no reason, and the brothers outside were filled with righteous indignation, and reported their grievances for the father."

"Now Zhao Zhong is at the height of his power in the palace, suppressing the brothers, it is really deceiving."

"People in the palace are panicking now, for fear of a catastrophe."

"Not long ago, Xiaoliu died, and was killed under Zhangtai by a stick."

When eunuch Cheng said this, his eyes were red, his voice was choked up, and his mood fluctuated greatly.

"Hey! Liu'er is a good boy, our family watched him grow up in the palace."

Zhao Gao's eyes darkened when he heard this, and his expression showed reminiscence.

"Father, the brothers are worried all day long, lest they become the next Xiaoliu."

"Everyone said that instead of sitting and waiting to die, it is better to fight Zhao Zhong to the death."

Eunuch Cheng's face was full of ferocity, and he said fiercely.

"Confused."

"You are not trying to fight Zhao Zhong to the death, you are seeking your own death."

"Zhao Zhong dreamed that you would not obey the rules. Only in this way can he be fair and upright, and call Tie Yingwei into the inner palace to uproot you."

"Zhao Zhong is just a pawn. Your Majesty is the real master of everything."

"Remember, to be a man with your tail between your legs, you must be extremely cautious in your actions, and act before you make a decision."

"Don't talk about bullying you, even if you are all killed, you should greet them with a smile."

"Zhao Zhong now represents His Majesty's will. If you refuse to obey, you will not only be the ones who will die. Your family members outside the palace will all pay the blood price for your stupidity and recklessness."

Zhao Gao saw it very clearly, and warned again and again.

"The meaning of the righteous father is to let us swallow our anger forever, beg for mercy, and try to survive?"

Eunuch Cheng's eyes were bloodshot, with an expression of disbelief.

"Snapped"

Zhao Gao raised his hand and slapped him across the face, angrily angrily said: "You have a chance when you live, and you can only die in vain if you die."

Eunuch Cheng was dizzy from the slap, the corner of his mouth was brimming with blood, he lowered his head, not daring to look into his foster father's eyes.

"The child knows his mistake, and the righteous father calms down."

Eunuch Cheng lowered his head, looking like a child who has done something wrong, and said aggrievedly.

"Our family is doing it for your own good. If you act impulsively, you can only lose your life in vain."

"In the future, if it is not a big event of heaven and earth, you must never come to see our family again."

"Do you still remember what Yifu told you, the story of Goujian, the king of Yue, who endured hardship?"

Zhao Gao stretched out his white and slender fingers, stroking the purple-red finger marks on Eunuch Cheng's face.

He brought his own face closer, stuck out his scarlet tongue, licked the eunuch Cheng's bruised face and said, "Does it still hurt?"

"The child is not in pain, the foster father's painstaking efforts, the child understands, and will definitely tell the brothers."

Eunuch Cheng felt the itching on his face, and an indescribable excitement surged in his heart.

"Ruzi can be taught."

"Has there been any major events in the palace recently?"

Zhao Gao looked calm, walked back to Mutao again, and sat down slowly with the support of Eunuch Cheng.

The eunuch Cheng began to pinch Zhao Gao's shoulders with both hands and said: "Except for Zhao Zhong's suppression of the brothers, nothing major happened in the palace. However, Young Master Hai has been looking for me to inquire about the whereabouts of the adoptive father. But His Majesty has already issued a seal. Password, I don’t dare to chew my tongue.”

"Well, well done."

"Oh! What a good boy, it's a pity that the success fell short."

"Our family has lost power now, and it may be difficult to regain the emperor's grace."

"Trapped here, the information from the outside can only be maintained by you."

"Be careful, don't show any flaws."

Zhao Gao was extremely melancholy at first, and then exhorted with a solemn expression.

"Father, don't worry, the child understands."

The eunuch Cheng squeezed Zhao Gao's shoulders for a while, and knocked his back for a while.

"It's getting late, go back and return to your life early!"

"Don't make Zhao Zhong suspicious. You are a dark chess game that our family has planned and tried so hard to bury beside him."

"Start to fulfill your mission!"

Zhao Gao pushed away Eunuch Cheng's hand, then stood up, looked at him with a smile and said.

"Child dare not."

The eunuch Cheng lowered his head, unable to move forward.

"Pedantic, the slap that foster father just slapped you was also for acting."

"If you make a big deal, why should you stick to the small things?"

"It's just a little flesh pain, foster father won't blame you."

"Hands on"
