Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book

Fang Yian obviously didn't expect that I would dare to confront him head-on. His eyes dimmed and he used a little force with his hands to force me to raise my head and look him straight in the eye.

"Why don't you want to go to Hibiscus Palace?"

This guy is really hypocritical. He doesn't like others asking him why, but he likes to dig deep into things.

Is this hard to understand?

I stared into his eyes and answered honestly, "Hibiscus Palace is the concubine's bedroom. If someone is asked to go there at night, it must be when the concubine is sleeping. Anyone can do this kind of thing, there is no need to force me to go!"

"Anyone can do this kind of thing, so why not you? You are already a woman, so there is no need to be shy, right?" His mocking tone was obvious.

If I had my old temper, if I met a boss like this, I would immediately throw a resignation notice in his face.

It is blatant discrimination and targeting. Whoever wants to be served can do so!

But now I can only take a deep breath and suppress my emotions. I promised that person that I would be patient, and I also have to understand how difficult it is for him.

This evil feudal society, the hard-working workers...

"I'll go!" Even if he agreed with gritted teeth, no matter how unwilling he was in his heart, it turned into powerless anger and gradually wilted over time.

I comforted myself that I was much luckier than those teenagers who actually worked as eunuchs in the palace.

This kind of placebo comparison actually doesn't have much effect, it's like scratching an itch through a shoe.

That night, I followed the other three people in the group and accompanied the emperor from the Qianqing Palace to the Furong Palace. The emperor's sedan chair had special bearers, eight strong men, and if it weren't for the palace clothes they were wearing, they would not be able to be seen as eunuchs. I secretly felt lucky that there were enough people serving in front of the emperor, so I didn't need a small body like me to carry the sedan chair.

I just followed the person in front of me without thinking. I felt that this kind of thing didn't need so many people watching. After all, he was the emperor.

When I was about to reach the Hibiscus Palace, I was almost about to sneeze because of the strong fragrance. I quickly lowered my head and pinched my nose to barely hold it in. It was so close that I was scared and broke into a cold sweat. Now I was only about two or three meters away from the emperor on the golden sedan chair. What if the old emperor was startled by my sneeze and wanted to chop off my head in anger? Then I would really die unjustly.

Even after everyone entered the Hibiscus Palace, I was still nervous and didn't notice when the emperor and the imperial concubine entered the inner hall.

How come they assigned people to guard the gate so quickly? I and another young eunuch were assigned to guard the gate in the first half of the night. The other party was very polite. He smiled at me and said softly, "It's not your first time in Hibiscus Palace. Why are you still so nervous?"

In his eyes, Xiao Xiazi would definitely not be nervous about such a thing. I forced a smile and said, "The closer I am to His Majesty, the more nervous I am. There is nothing I can do about it."

"Look at you, you are such a loser. You have been following the chief steward for almost two years, but you haven't improved at all. You used to be smart, but now you are so timid. Being on duty at night is so easy. Usually there are palace maids waiting for you, so there is nothing for us to do..."

I rubbed the tip of my nose and nodded in agreement. I didn't pay any attention to what the other party was talking to me like a senior. I was thinking about what kind of incense was used in the Hibiscus Palace. The smell was too strong. I wanted to sneeze. Could it be that there was some material that I was allergic to? No way, I can't be so unlucky...

After a while, the palace maids serving inside withdrew and everyone was waiting outside, which meant that the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine had started to get down to business.

The embarrassing thing was that the position we were guarding was only separated from the inner hall by a moon-shaped door with a curtain, so there was no soundproofing at all, so of course we could hear everything clearly.

In order not to embarrass myself in front of my “seniors”, I tried hard to pretend that I heard nothing and focused on the tip of my shoes.

Time was so long, listening to all kinds of embarrassing noises coming from inside, I just hated why I had such sharp ears. The emperor usually looked like a dignified and wise ruler, and he was very frugal with words. Who would have thought that he was flirting with the beauty in the imperial concubine's bed, just like those men who visited brothels outside, which was disgusting but also a little funny.

When I heard him doing something to the imperial concubine while calling her "little darling", it inexplicably hit my funny bone and I wanted to laugh so much.

But sound propagation is mutual. Their voices are clearly heard here. If there is any noise here, it should be heard inside. I quickly withdrew my thoughts and started thinking about some sad things. If I laughed out loud now, it would definitely be a bigger sin than sneezing behind the emperor before.

Just as I was silently reciting mathematical formulas to divert my attention, I suddenly heard a cry from the inner hall, "Your Majesty! Oh! Someone come quickly! Someone come quickly!" Along with the concubine's scream, there was also the emperor's labored groaning.

The two eunuchs closest to us now were the two of us. After looking at each other, we immediately rushed inside.

The imperial concubine casually grabbed her outer robe to cover her body, jumped off the couch, and asked the two of us to quickly call the imperial physician. Behind her, the fat emperor was grabbing his neck and breathing hard, as if something was stuck.

I immediately noticed a plate of fruit that had been kicked over on the floor next to the bed, with a bunch of grapes that had a few grapes picked from it.

The eunuch who came with me had already taken the order and ran out to ask for the imperial physician, while I asked the imperial concubine, "Your Majesty, is your throat choked by a grape?"

The imperial concubine frowned and glared at me, probably because she was displeased with the tone of my question. She turned around and glanced at the old man who was stuck in pain, and replied impatiently, "That should be it. What are you asking, a servant? Why don't you go and call for help!"

The emperor must have drunk a lot of wine, his face was a little red, and now the grape was stuck in his throat, so he couldn't breathe, and his face turned purple in a short while. I went straight to the couch, walked around behind him, and patted his shoulder, "Your Majesty, can you still stand up? If you can't stand, just sit up a little."

"What are you doing, you naughty slave?" The imperial concubine screamed at me, clutching the robe covering her body with one hand.

I didn't have time to explain it to her in detail at the moment, so I just used the Heimlich maneuver to strangle the emperor's body from behind. After some operation, I heard a "poof" sound, and the troublesome grape was spit out.

The emperor heaved a long sigh and said, "Finally I feel comfortable."

I glanced at his slightly swollen body, quickly retracted my gaze, and jumped off the bed, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. The situation was urgent just now, and I offended you." Then I bowed to the imperial concubine, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty..."

"You are quite clever, boy. I pardon you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." I lowered my head even lower, with a very respectful attitude.

At this time, someone came trotting in with the imperial physician. As expected, Fang Yian, the chief eunuch, had also arrived.

As there were more people, I quietly slipped to the side, ready to take the opportunity to retreat outside. But I heard the emperor pointed at me in front of so many people, "I'm fine, you don't have to be nervous, but the little eunuch just now was very smart, I seem to remember that he is your... Xiao Anzi's apprentice?"

As he spoke, the emperor looked at Fang Yian standing aside, but everyone else's eyes were all on me as I was backing away and preparing to escape.
