After the failed attempt to pretend to be dead, the sickly child was favored by the treacherous mini

After coming out of the Golden Palace, Shen Jinmo wandered aimlessly in the Imperial Garden.

The sun disappeared in an instant, and in a twinkling, dark clouds obscured the sun, and the sunset lost the miracle of performing the splendor of the setting sun.

The cold wind was quite fierce, blowing up his official robe that was made by his embroiderer who had made the dragon robe for Xia Hong, as if he wanted to share the emperor's favor with Shen Jinmo.

The bright yellow handkerchief held in his hand was about to fall off, and the blood stains on it proved that it was used not long ago.

The king personally took out his personal handkerchief and wiped the bright red off Shen Jinmo's arm.

The young eunuchs who served Shen Jinmo with his memorials were all sent by Xia Hong, and the one who was trotting up to Shen Jinmo was one of them.

Even though they were still far away, he had already knelt down and held up a memorial: "Greetings, Lord Shen. Young Master Xun has submitted another memorial requesting reinstatement."

In the past, memorials were delivered to him personally by Xun Xiang, but today they were delivered to him by Xia Hong's people. Xun Zhan really didn't treat him as an outsider.

"From now on, all memorials related to Xun Zhan will be returned."

Not daring to look up at Shen Jinmo, the young eunuch prostrated himself and kowtowed: "Yes, I obey your command."

The wind and snow were about to come, and a tiger roar came from his ears, grabbing Shen Jinmo's attention.

It has only been a month since we last saw it, but the tiger in the cage has already lost its childishness, and its eyes, which are calmly surveying the surroundings, conceal the animal strength that can devour a person alive.

Unlike the palace servants who always avoided this place, Shen Jinmo, who was sitting in the pavilion and watching the trapped beast fight for a while, walked straight towards the iron cage.

The light was dim, but Shen Jinmo saw at a glance the dragon boots that had been licked until they faded and were placed in the corner.

Even though he managed to save his life, Eunuch Lin now has to squat beside the iron cage every day and lick the dragon boots for an hour to atone for his sins.

The emperor's belongings were placed in the animal cage. If it wasn't intentional, it must have happened suddenly.

But for Eunuch Lin, who had been stirring up trouble in front of the emperor for more than a decade, how could so many things happen suddenly?

He walked around the iron cage slowly, and his eyes as sharp as an eagle met the eyes of the tiger in the iron cage, suppressing the tiger so much that it retreated step by step and then lay in the corner farthest from Shen Jinmo.

He bent down and entered the thatched hut which was only as high as his shoulders, and looked at the plate of hot pastries on the wooden table in the candlelight.

Now, Eunuch Lin, who is like a rat crossing the street and everyone is shouting at him, cannot get such a plate of sweet cakes.

His eyes moved and fell on the legs that were supposed to be covered with frostbite, but were now wrapped in clean gauze.

Kneeling on the wet blue bricks, the skinny Xiao Linzi kowtowed three times to Shen Jinmo.

"Your servant Xiao Linzi pays respect to Lord Shen."

"These are sent to you by the newly appointed chief eunuch today in order to ask for the life-saving technique?"

The words were cruel, but the advice they contained did not allow Eunuch Lin to play dumb.

The appearance of a new eunuch chief means that Xiao Dezi is dead.

If Shen Jinmo hadn't saved his life, he would have died in that bleak autumn wind.

He curled his lips coldly with an unknown meaning: "It seems that I guessed wrong. There really is someone in this palace who is not afraid of death and dares to send food to you."

He raised his head, which was originally thinking about Shen Jinmo's intention today, took a quick look, and then quickly lowered it again.

Having known Shen Jinmo for so many years, Eunuch Lin has never seen Shen Jinmo take advantage of other people's weaknesses and use threats to achieve his own goals.

As the sword in Xia Hong's hand, he would just kill anyone he disliked. Why would he need to look for the ally?

Now, not only was Eunuch Lin still useful, but Shen Jinmo in front of him was also suffering from the pain of having his bones cut.

And Shen Jinmo's bones can only be that of Xie Nanxing who tried extremely hard to stay alive.

They first met in the palace and separated from the Xie family. Eunuch Lin had seen all the miserable looks of Xie Nanxing, and his eyes suddenly turned red when he thought of Xie Nanxing's ending.

The emperor was incompetent and no one under him was spared from being slaughtered.

He was like this, as were Shen Jinmo and Xie Nanxing, and even Zhong Yuanyuan.

Eunuch Lin, with half of his body buried in the ground, can die, but how can those who have some kindness towards him be dragged down by him?

Yes, Shen Jinmo will implicate others because of his position.

This was the outcome that Shen Jinmo didn't need to say much, as Eunuch Lin had already seen it.

Shen Jinmo has changed. Shen Jinmo, who has no weaknesses and has lost everything, has changed.

"Whatever Lord Shen tells me to do, I will do my best within my ability."

"What skills does Eunuch Lin have to help me?"

After snorting and laughing, he confirmed Eunuch Lin's speculation: "Could it be that you can bring Xie Nanxing back to life?"

After asking the two questions, Shen Jinmo bent down and walked out of the low thatched hut, leaving the palace without looking back.

There is no need to explain anything. Eunuch Lin, who knows Xia Hong's methods, understands better than anyone why Shen Jinmo became a treacherous minister.

The ruler of a country holds real power, and there is no minister in the court who can deceive his ears.

The so-called treacherous ministers carry nothing but the selfish desires of the emperor.

Without Shen Jinmo, there would be endless treacherous ministers and favored officials in this court.

Choosing Shen Jinmo is just a process of taming the beast, which can make oneself happy, but also bring despair to those who have never bent their backs.

As for the current temptation and possession, it was the bargaining chip that Shen Jinmo gained by breaking free from the iron cage and exchanging his life for it.

The moment he stood up and sat back on the stool, a blood-stained bright yellow handkerchief fell on the place where Shen Jinmo had just sat.

He walked out of the cage holding a candle. The dragon boots that had been bitten by a tiger and fell beside the cage caught Eunuch Lin's eye.

My heart trembled. The viciousness in Shen Jinmo's eyes was really terrifying.

It’s not that Shen Jinmo needs an alliance with him, but only Shen Jinmo can go along with what he wants in his heart.

A mere handkerchief could not shake Shen Jinmo in the slightest, and what Eunuch Lin did tomorrow had nothing to do with Shen Jinmo.

The choice is before you, whether to do it or not is entirely up to Eunuch Lin.

After stuffing the handkerchief into his sleeve, Eunuch Lin took out the raw meat that the tiger in the cage would eat tomorrow.

Then they hung it up with a hemp rope, and blood kept dripping onto the blue bricks. A faint light began to emanate from the eyes of the tiger in the cage.

Accompanied by the roars of tigers one after another, Eunuch Lin hugged all his bedding and clothes tightly and had a rare good sleep.

Eunuch Lin was wandering in dreams. He dreamed of that winter night when Shen Jinmo was kneeling in a miserable state under the palace wall.

When I woke up, it was already daybreak.

For the first time in his life, Eunuch Lin felt fortunate. He went there in person that night and personally delivered the news of Xie Nanxing's disappearance to Xia Hong.

It was the kindness he showed when he was in a high position that earned him this chance of survival.

The drained raw meat was wrapped in a bright yellow towel. Eunuch Lin hooked the towel with an iron hook, and every time the tiger in the cage jumped at the smell of meat, he would retract the iron hook.

Only when the tiger is extremely hungry will the bitten scarf drop the meat it wants in front of it.
