Harem Daily Life

"How could this happen? How could this happen? I... I was just worried that Ye'er would be harmed by Shufei, so I found these two people. Now, I... what should I do?" Defei was trembling all over, and Haitang beside her was also pale.

Now that things have come to this, we must immediately notify the Marquis!

Haitang thought about it, then slowly stood up and quietly left, pretending to go find someone, but actually she wanted to pass on the news from the palace today.

It is said that as soon as Chen Shui and A Zheng were ordered to be detained by Concubine De, they began to think about escaping.

The two of them walked in the palace wearing their eunuch's clothes with their heads down. When they reached a remote rockery, Ah Zheng grabbed Chen Shui and whispered, "I think we should go back. If we run away secretly, what will happen to our whole family?"

Chen Shui grabbed his collar, veins popping out on his face. "Are you stupid? If we go back now, do you know what's waiting for us? Concubine De wants to castrate both of us! Without our life force, how can we be men for the rest of our lives?"

"But...but it's better than implicate my family!" Ah Zheng was trembling all over. He wanted to be a man, but he didn't want his family to die.

A complex look flashed across Chen Shui's eyes, but he immediately returned to his indifference: "You only have an old mother in her sixties in your family, and I only have a paralyzed father and a mentally retarded brother in my family. To save them, you should die or live by yourself. Think about it carefully! Anyway, I want to be a man!"

After saying that, Chen Shui shook off his hand and looked outside, trying to find a place to hide temporarily, and then think of a way to escape from the palace when it was dark and windy at night.

Ah Zheng wiped his face, wiping away the sweat and tears. "So what do you think we should do now? Will we still have time to escape and take our families far away?"

Chen Shui looked at him and saw that he still had the illusion of protecting his family. He secretly hated him for being indecisive, but considering that they were in the same boat, he said, "Let's find a place to hide first, and we'll go out at night."

Not far away was the direction of Mingcui Pavilion. Seeing that the courtyard here was not big and relatively remote with few people passing by, the two men pulled their clothes, lowered their heads, walked out of the rockery, and headed towards Mingcui Pavilion.

Hearing the knock on the door, a young eunuch opened the door suspiciously: "What are you doing?"

Chen Shui and Ah Zheng looked at each other, and Chen Shui smiled and said, "Sir, we are from the laundry department. We came out to deliver clothes but got lost. May I ask whose master's residence is this?"

The young eunuch looked at the two people and saw that it was getting dark outside. He was alert to the two people who appeared out of nowhere and said, "Go west to the laundry department. Go quickly and don't disturb Lady Lu's rest."

After saying that, he wanted to close the door, but when Chen Shui heard that it was just a talented person, he took action to deal with the eunuch in a few moves, grabbed A Zheng and went into Mingcui Pavilion, closing the door.

Poor young eunuch was silenced before he could figure out what was going on.

"Are you crazy? How dare you kill people in this palace at this time?" Ah Zheng scolded Chen Shui in a low voice.

Chen Shui seemed to be furious: "Shut up, haven't you heard of this Lu Cairen? People in Yongxing Palace are saying that the Lu sisters are not favored. The emperor doesn't like Lu Cairen even though she gave birth to a princess. She is the safest place now. No one will come looking for her."

After saying that, Chen Shui dragged his father-in-law's body and looked for a place to hide it.

What Chen Shui said was right. No one would come to Mingcui Pavilion for thousands of years. Even the people from Licai were too lazy to come. Even if a few people were killed in the yard at this time, no noise would be made.

Chen Shui gradually gained courage. After dealing with the father-in-law, he looked at the backyard and started to make plans.

Ah Zheng had not expected that everything would go so smoothly. The two of them stayed by the gatehouse in the front yard and ate the food left by their father-in-law, and no one came to ask them a question.

"Hey, you stay here. I'll go see how many people are there in the back. There must be few people around this unfavored talent, so we might as well get rid of them all. What do you think the emperor's concubine looks like? Will she be as pretty as Concubine De?" Chen Shui patted A Zheng and kept his eyes on the backyard.

Ah Zheng said angrily: "I advise you not to do stupid things again. Let's just stay here and sneak away in the middle of the night."

Chen Shui didn't care: "I haven't touched a woman for so long, even if I die, I want to be happy for once." After saying that, he stood up. Ah Zheng grabbed him and said, "Are you really going to die?"

Chen Shui seemed to ignore him: "I don't know if I can survive until tomorrow. Let go, I'll be back soon."

A Zheng didn't dare to make too much noise. He could only watch Chen Shui straighten his eunuch clothes and go to the backyard.

Lu Cairen was very proud of herself for having stabbed Concubine De today. However, she did not expect that before going to bed, a strange eunuch suddenly appeared in her bedroom.

Chen Shui had not expected that the emperor's concubine would be so young and beautiful. Unlike Concubine De, who had a graceful and elegant appearance, the talent in front of him was a little thin, but she was beautiful and had a kind of elegant beauty. He swallowed his saliva, pulled out the dagger he was carrying and pressed it against Lu Cairen's neck: "Don't make a sound, or I'll kill you!"

Lu Cairen's eyes rolled around and she asked hurriedly, "Who are you and why are you here?" Although she tried her best to remain calm, her trembling voice still revealed her inner uneasiness.

"Humph, since you are going to die, I am not afraid to tell you, so that you can die knowing full well. I am the guard beside the eldest prince as mentioned in the rumors."

After hearing this, Lu Cairen was so frightened that he almost fainted. He begged for mercy: "Please forgive me, I just said it casually, I didn't mean to hurt you, I didn't mean it!"

Chen Shui's eyes darkened when he heard this: "Okay, so it was you who spread the identities of my two brothers! Tell me, how did you know that?"

Chen Shui didn't expect that he would find the culprit of this incident by accident.

Lu Cairen's face turned even paler, and he secretly hated himself for being so stupid as to self-destruct!

"I, I didn't mean it. I just, I just heard it by chance. I heard Concubine Tao... Yes, it was Concubine Tao who revealed it." In a flash, Lu Cairen directly pushed the blame onto Tao Yanyan.

But Chen Shui was not easy to fool. He moved the dagger closer and said, "Don't fool me. I heard that Concubine Tao just gave birth to a child and never left the house. She has never even seen us. How could she know our identities?"

Lu Cairen was extremely anxious and made up a story: "The Imperial Concubine Tao is deeply favored by His Majesty. Maybe His Majesty already knew about the two of you and talked to the Imperial Concubine Tao privately."

Chen Shui was confused by him, but now was not the time to discuss where the news came from. He glanced at Lu Cairen, swallowed, and pounced on him.

Cui'er, who was guarding outside, had been killed by Chen Shui with a knife. The others had gone to bed and would not come over, but Chen Shui was so bold that he didn't care.
