Chapter 597: The Old Slave Is Not Worthy
The "Clear Dust" plan came to a perfect end. But there were still many things to do afterwards. Emperor Mingde hadn't had a good rest for two days. A group of people walked outside the imperial study, and another group knelt down, and it was endless.
Emperor Mingde rubbed his brows and asked Eunuch Qi, "Is the Prince of Jin still crying outside?"
Eunuch Qi replied, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Jin is crying, crying like... ahem... Does Your Majesty want to summon His Royal Highness Prince Jin in?"
Emperor Mingde asked with a smile, "What do you think crying looks like?"
Eunuch Qi pursed his lips, "No, nothing. This old slave..." He didn't know when he had learned to be a hermaphrodite, "This old slave is not worthy of feeling anything."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Mingde stared at Eunuch Qi for a long while, then pointed to a chair on the side and said, "Youen, sit down."
"I don't dare, old slave."
"I told you to sit down, so just sit down." Emperor Mingde placed the imperial pen in his hand on the pen holder, stood up and sat on the soft chair next to him, pointing to another soft chair.
Eunuch Qi bent over and puffed out his cheeks, "This old slave is not worthy of sitting. This old slave will stand."
Emperor Mingde was silent for a moment, then looked up at him, "Are you still blaming me for not telling you the truth in advance?"
"I dare not," Eunuch Qi paused, and couldn't help but let his eyes moisten, "I don't deserve to know."
Emperor Mingde looked at Eunuch Qi's awkward look and couldn't help rubbing his brows again.
He still remembered that when Eunuch Qi first appeared in his house, he was only ten years old and looked timid.
That’s when he asked, “What’s your name?”
Eunuch Qi replied, "My last name is Qi, and everyone in my family calls me Gouzi."
Emperor Mingde thought that the name Qi Gouzi was not elegant enough, so he thought for a while and said, "From now on, you should be called 'Youen'. Youen means the blessing and gift of God."
After hearing this, Eunuch Qi's eyes were filled with surprise and gratitude. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Thank you, Your Highness, for the name. From now on, Your Highness will be my heaven. I will do my best to live up to Your Highness' high expectations."
Qi Youen served him from the time he was still a prince until he became emperor.
After all, this was the eunuch chosen for him by the Empress Dowager.
Qi Youen was very smooth, trying to please the Empress Dowager and him. Emperor Mingde knew it all, but he didn't blame him.
He said to Eunuch Qi, "It's right for you to protect yourself, but there must be a limit. If I find out that you betray me, I will no longer want you."
Eunuch Qi said, "Master, what I have reported to the Queen Mother are all unimportant matters. If she wants to know, let her know. We can even give her some false information. How great is that."
Over the years, the Empress Dowager had been deceived by Eunuch Qi many times, and Eunuch Qi had also been punished by the Empress Dowager many times.
Until now, Qi Youen has become an irreplaceable person by his side.
Emperor Mingde pulled Eunuch Qi, who was bent over angrily to serve him tea, to sit on a chair and sighed, "Youen, how come you are really angry with me?"
It would have been better if he hadn't asked. When he asked, Eunuch Qi couldn't hold back his tears, and he burst into tears. "I know that the 'Qingchen' plan is related to the foundation of the country. The emperor is worried that I will leak the 'Qingchen' plan to the empress dowager. Because, because I was arranged by the empress dowager to be by your side from the beginning."
How could he dare to sit down? His knees softened, and he slid to the ground and knelt in front of Emperor Mingde. He prostrated himself on the ground and cried bitterly, "But I have always been your servant! From the time you gave me a name, I have been your only master. Your Majesty, the sun and the moon can bear witness to my heart. The heaven and earth can bear witness to it. I wish I could dig my heart out and show it to you..."
Emperor Mingde said in a deep voice, "I know that Youen is the most loyal. Over the years, you have done a lot of errands for me, and I know everything about you."
He reached out and pulled Eunuch Qi up from the ground, and motioned for him to sit down again.
Eunuch Qi cried, made a fuss, and expressed his loyalty. He knew the principle of knowing when to stop when things are going well, so he sat obediently with his head down and listened to the instructions.
In fact, he was not really arrogant because of his favor. He knew how important he was in the emperor's heart, so he used his grievances to act like a spoiled child to get closer to the emperor.
He had a firm grasp on people's hearts. He dared to make such a scene only because his master loved him. If he were another emperor, he would not complain even if he died of grievance.
How could Emperor Mingde not know this?
To put it bluntly, they grew up together. After all the ups and downs over the years, who doesn't know each other's temperament?
Moreover, Emperor Mingde was a man who could dream. He saw with his own eyes that the eunuch Qi in his previous life remained calm after he was poisoned, and he firmly believed that he would not die.
In the end, he really died. Eunuch Qi cried like a baby and stayed by his side for three days and three nights without eating or drinking, muttering to himself, "How could the emperor die? The emperor is the Son of Heaven, how could he die?"
Later, Emperor Rongguang also employed Eunuch Qi, but he often made him angry and often used methods to discipline him. He also disliked his nagging and felt that he was always using the late emperor to put pressure on him, so he found a fault and banished him from the palace.
The eunuch Qi who was banished from the palace was very pitiful. In addition, he was favored in his early years, and many people were jealous of him. Seeing him lose power, who wouldn't step on him?
If Shi Anxia had not taken care of him in time, Eunuch Qi would have died long ago. Later, Eunuch Qi was secretly arranged by Shi Anxia to go to Ganzhou, where he lived incognito and finally lived in peace.
When Emperor Yuqing came to the throne, Shi Anxia ordered people to bring Eunuch Qi back to the palace.
As a result, Eunuch Qi always held Emperor Yuqing to the same standards as Emperor Mingde, and Emperor Yuqing found him annoying and nagging.
In the end, Eunuch Qi had no choice but to follow Empress Dowager Huizheng.
No wonder Shi Anxia was always close to Eunuch Qi after he was reborn. Knowing that he was from Yueshan, he gave him Yueshan tea.
Emperor Mingde patted Eunuch Qi gently with his hand, "You! I trust you! It is precisely because I trust you that I cannot tell you. The Empress Dowager will believe that I am really poisoned after seeing your expression."
Eunuch Qi then smiled and carefully confirmed, "Does the emperor really trust me?"
Emperor Mingde looked at his sly look and couldn't help but laugh, "That's enough! Don't imitate the prince consort's weird ways in the future!"
Eunuch Qi smiled proudly, "This old servant has discovered that speaking in a sarcastic tone really makes me feel good."
Emperor Mingde's brows were filled with indescribable fondness. "You don't want to learn the good things, but learn these! If I'm really gone..."
“Pooh, pooh, pooh, pooh!” Eunuch Qi’s face suddenly changed. “Pooh, pooh, pooh, my God!” He put his hands together and spun them around. “Please don’t be offended, God, please don’t be offended. Please don’t blame my master! If you want to punish me, punish me alone…”
Emperor Mingde was delighted and patted Eunuch Qi on the shoulder, "God is not so stingy. God bless our Northern Wing. Hahahahahaha..."
"Your Majesty...I acknowledge my guilt...Wuuuuuu..." The unpleasant crying voice of Prince Jin could be heard from outside the door again.
Emperor Mingde's expression suddenly became serious. Some people, no matter how unwilling they are, still have to be dealt with.
He stood up and returned to the imperial table, and said in a low voice, "Let him in."
