Chapter 738 Long Live the Emperor! (8)
The loneliness of the imperial harem is unbearable; the long nights are endless, and anyone would feel lonely.

The purpose of food is simply to relieve stress, have someone to accompany you, and provide some comfort to your soul.

Yu Muhuai: However, I heard some rumors from somewhere that even eunuchs have certain ways to relieve themselves...

Big White: What are you talking about? I'm too innocent to understand. And don't think that using a word like "some" will make people think it has nothing to do with you.

Yu Muhuai: Do you know how to use hands and props?
Big White: I don't understand, I'm so innocent, I don't understand anything.

Yu Muhuai: But in that case, the eunuch would only get psychological comfort, while the woman would…

Baymax: That's enough!!!
When Ping Qinian was 45 years old, he formed a relationship with a palace maid who would change his life forever.

This palace maid was the wet nurse of the former emperor, who was also the elder brother of Emperor Wan Zhixin. Her name was Bao Min.

Although Ping Qinian had a life full of hardships, he was tall and handsome, and Bao Min took a liking to him.

The late emperor treated this wet nurse very well. After hearing her speak highly of Ping Qinian, he promoted the eunuch to his side.

From then on, a new chapter began in Ping Qinian's life.

After that, Ping Qinian's rise was like a rocket launch, his status and power soaring rapidly.

In just eight years, he wielded immense power and controlled the government, becoming the infamous "Nine Thousand Years Old".

After the late emperor passed away, he began to control Wan Zhixin again.

However, because he had been stabbed twice in his early years and almost died several times, Ping Qinian's health was not very good, and he needed to take medicine to regulate his body all year round.

After being harassed by Yu Muhuai and the sophists, Ping Qinian felt a splitting headache and was completely confused.

After the court session, Ping Qinian requested a three-day rest from the emperor, citing physical discomfort.

Yu Muhuai readily agreed.

Seeing Ping Qinian's pale face and bloodless lips, Yu Muhuai showed a concerned expression.

"Admiral Ping, you don't look well. Have you caught a cold recently? Or is it because you've been overworked with state affairs?"

Alas, although it is said that a country cannot be without its ruler for a day, I feel that I cannot be without you for a day, so in fact, the country cannot be without you for a day!
Upon hearing Yu Muhuai speak so frankly, Ping Qinian was somewhat moved.

He stared blankly at Yu Muhuai, muttering, "Your Majesty... what virtue or ability do I possess?"

However, before Ping Yinian could finish speaking, Yu Muhuai smiled and spoke again.

"However, in order for Minister Ping to better serve the country in the future, assist me, and become a pillar of the nation, I have decided to let you go back and rest for seven days!"

"Ping Aiqing, you must not refuse. You must take good care of yourself and rest well. I think so."

Come again, come again.

The dizziness and nausea are back!

Ping Qinian stood with his hands tucked into his sleeves, and he had to frantically pick at them to prevent himself from gagging.

After Yu Muhuai finally finished speaking at length, Ping Qinian was already swaying precariously.

He no longer cared whether it was three days or seven days of rest.
Your Majesty, I beg you, please let me leave immediately!
Let me get out!

After rambling on and on, Yu Muhuai finally put Ping Qinian down and left.

Watching the departing figure, still somewhat stumbling and unsteady, Yu Muhuai chuckled softly and turned to walk towards the Imperial Study.

Everything's been great lately, except I've been talking a lot.

Civil officials who speak out? Haha.

Ping Qinian finally got three days of rest and felt better. The emperor's incessant chatter was no longer in his head, and the buzzing in his ears had stopped. But then something unexpected happened outside.

Ping Qinian had four powerful eunuchs under his command. Because they were too arrogant and abusive, and acted too ruthlessly, they were nicknamed the "Four Fierce Eunuchs".

These four people are Xu Lianyin, Tian Qiyuan, Sun Shangjiu, and Cui Guang.

The "Four Fierce Warriors," led by Xu Lian, committed countless evil deeds and were extremely cruel.

The four of them were notorious for using the most cruel methods of torture to extract confessions on many loyal and righteous people during the reign of the late emperor.

The emperor at that time trusted Ping Qinian very much, and even the time he attended court depended on his mood.

Sometimes, if I felt unwell upon waking up early, I would simply announce that I wouldn't be holding court that day. As a result, the civil and military officials who had gotten up early to come to court could only leave disappointed.

All the memorials submitted that day ended up in Ping Qinian's hands.

Such cases are too numerous to mention.

Later on, the late emperor could even skip court for a whole month at a time.

Such negligence, coupled with Ping Qinian's control of power, made that period arguably one of the darkest times in the history of the Cong Kingdom.

Thinking about it this way, Emperor Wan Zhixin was truly tragic.

What he took over was no longer just a mess; it wasn't even a proper mess, more like a tattered straw mat.

It was still riddled with holes and full of rotten parts, with many woodworms around it trying to get a piece of the straw mat before it was completely destroyed.

Previously, someone had risked their life to petition the late emperor, impeaching Emperor Pingqin for ten major crimes.

Several high-ranking officials who were impeached were arrested, but the late emperor did not care and left it entirely to Ping Qinian to handle.

Ping Qinian snorted coldly and handed everything over to Xu Lianyin and the other three.

The four men imprisoned the ministers, and then used all sorts of terrifying instruments of torture and ruthless methods to force them to confess to embezzlement, bribery, and factionalism.

It seems that simply by smearing these ministers with some blemishes, their previous impeachments would become completely baseless.

However, several ministers remained steadfast and unyielding, preferring death to surrender.

After enduring dozens of days of unimaginably cruel torture, he died a martyr.

The late emperor made no comment on this.

In his previous life, this incident left an indelible impression on Wan Zhixin, so much so that after Ping Qinian's death, he couldn't wait to exonerate the ministers.

Xu Lianyin and the other "Four Fierce Men" were also imprisoned and died under torture.

However, it was precisely because Wan Zhixin in his previous life carried such intense emotions that he went to extremes in his actions, which was counterproductive.

Anyone can easily lose control when their emotions are too intense or their mood is too agitated.

Wan Zhixin, who was in charge, encouraged his court officials to expose each other and report on the eunuch faction in the court.

You can think of the imperial court as a large company, with the emperor as the boss.

Not all the officials in the bureaucracy had a strong sense of national righteousness and patriotism; many were simply there to earn a salary.

It's already good enough to be able to do your job well, after all, there are many people who just slack off and take the money without doing anything.

When a company boss is incompetent, a manager like Ping Qinian will step in and take control of company affairs.
