Rebirth: Phoenix Riding the Ninth Heaven

Chapter 213 A Chance Encounter with Eunuch Wang Xi

In Li Ruoyue's mind, the memories of her past life unfolded clearly before her like a detailed map. This map not only marked the fate of each person, but also recorded in detail their status and role in the court.

Li Ruoyue is well aware of the strict hierarchy of the palace, where everyone has their own position and responsibilities. However, relying on this special "guidance", she desperately searches for the figure of Eunuch Wang Xi in this huge palace.

Eunuch Wang Xi, this name may be just an ordinary eunuch to others, but to Li Ruoyue, he is a very important person. Because in her past life memory, Eunuch Wang Xi will become a key turning point in her life.

At this moment, Eunuch Wang Xi was like a grain of sand in the vast desert, insignificant. He struggled to survive amidst the complexities of the palace, facing daily drudgery and endless pressure. Yet, despite his insignificance, no one cared about his existence, let alone his life.

The threads of fate, like an invisible net, intertwined them unconsciously, tightly entangling them. And that destined moment, like a huge vortex, drew everyone in.

In the imperial garden, the sun shines brightly, birds sing and flowers bloom, creating a peaceful and harmonious scene. However, beneath this apparent beauty lies an undercurrent.

Several eunuchs, usually bullies, suddenly attacked Eunuch Wang Xi for unknown reasons. Like hungry wolves, they surrounded him and beat and kicked him mercilessly. Terrified, Eunuch Wang Xi tried to resist, but found himself no match for them.

He could only curl up, shielding his head with his hands, and let the fists and kicks rain down on him. Every punch and kick brought piercing pain, and Eunuch Wang Xi's screams echoed in the Imperial Garden, but no one paid attention.

Soon, Eunuch Wang Xi's body was covered with wounds, and blood gushed out from his wounds, staining his tattered eunuch uniform red. His body could no longer withstand such torture, and finally, he fell to the ground, dying.

The perpetrators seemed unsatisfied. They looked at Eunuch Wang Xi lying in a pool of blood with hideous smiles on their faces. Then, they walked away laughing, leaving Eunuch Wang Xi alone and helpless, collapsed in a corner, as if the whole world had abandoned him.

At this critical moment, Li Ruoyue appeared here casually, like a savior who had fallen from the sky. In fact, she had already learned through various channels that Eunuch Wang Xi would encounter a disaster here, so she showed up at this moment. Seeing the miserable appearance of Eunuch Wang Xi, Li Ruoyue felt a pang of pain in her heart, but she suppressed her emotions, walked quickly to Eunuch Wang Xi's side, squatted down, her eyes full of concern and pity, and whispered: "Eunuch, what's wrong with you?

How could you be injured so badly? "Eunuch Wang Xi raised his head slightly, looked at Li Ruoyue with his bloodshot and extremely weak eyes, his cracked lips trembling slightly, and said weakly: "It's... it's Miss Li... they... they bullied me for no reason..." Li Ruoyue frowned, her heart full of indignation, but saving people was the most important thing at this moment.

She quickly took out an exquisite little medicine bottle from her bosom, poured out some ointment with a faint fragrance, and carefully applied it on the shocking wounds of Eunuch Wang Xi. While applying it, she whispered to comfort him, "Eunuch, please bear with it. This medicine can relieve the pain and will heal faster." She performed every movement very gently, as if treating an extremely precious treasure, fearing that any carelessness would aggravate Eunuch Wang Xi's pain.

After applying the ointment, Li Ruoyue helped Eunuch Wang Xi lean against the rockery nearby to make him feel a little more comfortable. Looking at Eunuch Wang Xi's haggard and grateful face, Li Ruoyue said seriously: "Eunuch, remember, I have found a job in the Imperial Hospital.

If you encounter any difficulties or feel unwell in the future, feel free to come to me at the Imperial Hospital. As long as I can help, I will never refuse. "Eunuch Wang Xi's eyes were filled with tears of emotion, his lips trembling, and he tried hard to say words of gratitude, but because he was too weak, he could only hold Li Ruoyue's hand tightly, using that weak strength to convey his inner gratitude. Li Ruoyue gently patted Eunuch Wang Xi's hand and said, "Eunuch, you should have a good rest first and don't talk.

"I'll come to see you often," Li Ruoyue said softly, her voice as gentle as a spring breeze. Her eyes fell on Eunuch Wang Xi, full of concern.

After saying this, Li Ruoyue didn't leave immediately. Instead, she carefully examined Eunuch Wang Xi's injuries again. She gently peeled back the gauze bandage and checked the wound's healing. After confirming that the wound had begun to heal and there were no signs of infection or other abnormalities, Li Ruoyue breathed a sigh of relief and rebandaged Eunuch Wang Xi's wound.

After doing all this, Li Ruoyue stood up with confidence and prepared to leave. However, the moment she turned around, Eunuch Wang Xi's eyes followed her closely, as if he wanted to deeply imprint her figure in his mind.

Watching Li Ruoyue's receding figure, a warm feeling welled up in Eunuch Wang Xi's heart. He secretly vowed that if he had the chance in the future, he would definitely repay Li Ruoyue for saving his life today. He would remember this kindness in his heart and never forget it.

Since then, Li Ruoyue, as she had promised, has been visiting Eunuch Wang Xi frequently. Each time, she brings along some carefully prepared medicine and nourishing foods. These medicines were purchased by Li Ruoyue from the best pharmacies in the capital, and the nourishing foods were cooked by her own hands, filled with her heart.

Under Li Ruoyue's meticulous care, Eunuch Wang Xi's injuries gradually improved. His pale complexion gradually regained color, and his body gradually recovered. His mental state also improved, no longer as listless as before.

After spending time together, Eunuch Wang Xi grew increasingly respectful and grateful for Li Ruoyue. Although he was at the bottom of the palace, he was keenly aware that Li Ruoyue was no ordinary woman. Her eyes revealed a wisdom and determination beyond the ordinary, as if hiding many unknown secrets.

In the complex environment of the palace, Li Ruoyue's every move gradually attracted the attention of some interested parties. A palace maid named Cuiyu, already jealous of Li Ruoyue's high profile at the Imperial Hospital, and seeing her close relationship with Eunuch Wang Xi, became malicious and began to spread rumors throughout the palace, claiming that Li Ruoyue and Eunuch Wang Xi were having an improper relationship.

The rumor spread like a terrifying whirlwind, quickly spreading throughout the palace. Soon, even those who harbored resentment towards Li Ruoyue joined in spreading the rumor, making it even more outrageous. For a time, Li Ruoyue became the talk of the town, with all sorts of unpleasant words hurled at her like sharp arrows.

But Li Ruoyue paid no attention to these rumors. She knew that in the palace, the innocent were always innocent, and rather than expend energy trying to clear things up, she could focus on her own plans. However, upon hearing these rumors, Eunuch Wang Xi felt a surge of guilt and self-blame. He felt that he had implicated Li Ruoyue, causing her to suffer these unwarranted slanders.

To prove Li Ruoyue's innocence, Eunuch Wang Xi decided to step forward. Drawing on his familiarity with the palace and information gathered from other eunuchs, he finally tracked down the source of the rumors: Cui Yu. While Cui Yu was resting alone in a corner of the Imperial Garden, Eunuch Wang Xi quietly approached her.

Cuiyu was startled when she saw Eunuch Wang Xi suddenly appear, but she quickly feigned composure and said, "Oh, isn't this Eunuch Wang? What do you want from me?" Eunuch Wang Xi looked Cuiyu in the eye with a serious expression and said coldly, "Miss Cuiyu, you were the one who spread the rumors about Miss Li in the palace?" Cuiyu was a little flustered, but she still said stubbornly, "What rumors? I don't know what you are talking about." Eunuch Wang Xi snorted coldly and said, "Don't try to quibble! I have already found out that everything is your fault. Why did you frame Miss Li like this?"

Seeing her actions exposed, Cui Yu simply stopped pretending. She swung her sleeves, revealing a ferocious face, and said viciously to Eunuch Wang Xi, "Humph, who the hell is Li Ruoyue! She's just a mere imperial physician, yet she's able to enjoy such a glorious life in this palace? It's truly disgusting!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Wang Xi's anger ignited. His eyes widened, and he retorted angrily, "Miss Li is kind-hearted and a skilled doctor. She only wants to save lives and has never intended to harm anyone. You, on the other hand, are so vicious. Sooner or later, you will suffer retribution!"

However, Cui Yu didn't care at all about Eunuch Wang Xi's accusations. She sneered and said sarcastically, "You are just a dog of Li Ruoyue. What qualifications do you have to speak for her here? If you really have the ability, go tell the emperor! Let's see who the emperor will believe!"

Eunuch Wang Xi knew that a standoff between him and Cuiyu alone would be difficult to convince everyone of the truth. However, he didn't give up. Instead, he secretly decided to find stronger evidence to clear Li Ruoyue's name. He began to collect records of Cuiyu's past misdeeds, hoping to uncover her true identity.
