There was no bad news from the northwest for the time being, and there was nothing happening in the front court. After the emperor finished reviewing the memorials, he turned around and stepped into the harem.

"Su Peisheng, how is the Third Prince?"

"My Lord, Judge Zhang said that the Third Prince has improved and can eat a lot. He just needs to be nursed back to health for a while."

He knew that it was actually the Third Prince who was scolded by his master and cooperated obediently with the imperial physician.

"The Queen has done well. Let's go to the Broken Jade Pavilion and sit down."

Su Peisheng bowed and asked.

"May I ask if the master wishes to travel on a dragon chariot?"

......

The palace maid who was sweeping the floor not far away heard what the master and servant said. After she finished cleaning the area, she turned around and entered Jingren Palace.

"Jianqiu, the emperor..."

"Ouch! My stomach aches. Please call the imperial physician."

There was chaos in Jingren Palace, and the emperor and his entourage had already arrived at Suiyuxuan.

Because Huanbi was still ill, Cui Jinxi asked Liuzhu to tell her not to appear in front of the emperor.

"Liu Zhu, look at Cui Jinxi, she actually dared to do this to me."

"Huanbi, Aunt Jinxi is doing this for your own good. Palace rules say: People with illnesses cannot serve the master. Aunt Jinxi is completely..."

"Okay, Liu Zhu, stop talking and go to the front to serve."

Unable to gain Liuzhu's sympathy, Huanbi angrily covered her head with the quilt.

She even regretted throwing Cui Jinxi's things away in a fit of anger.

Liu Zhu sighed and tucked in the quilt for Huanbi.

She was busy up ahead, so she didn't dare delay too long.

After lunch, the two masters went into the study and it looked like they would not come out in the short term.

Cui Jinxi walked up to Su Peisheng with confidence and asked in a gentle voice.

"Eunuch Su, I have something to ask you. May I ask if you are free?"

"Aunt Jinxi, you're too polite. I'm free. Please lead the way."

Su Peisheng agreed hurriedly, and did not forget to tell Xiao Xiazi to wait for orders at the door.

"Master, you can go without worry. I will help you guard the door."

Xiao Xiazi's cheerful voice made Cui Jinxi look at him twice.

He laughed and joked as he walked out.

"Eunuch Su, your disciple is quite clever."

"Aunt Cui, you are too kind. Lady Wan is lucky to have you."

As for Xiao Xiazi, being too clever is not a good thing when serving in front of the emperor, and she needs to be disciplined.

There are only a few places around the master, and he is not the kind of person who would be unguarded against his disciples.

Although he had some subtle feelings towards Cui Jinxi, and had helped Sui Yuxuan because they were from the same hometown, they were not yet at the point of being open-hearted.

Last time, her fellow villager was beaten with a stick because of her request. Cui Jinxi wanted to care for Su Peisheng several times, but she never found an opportunity.

It’s not that the emperor didn’t come to Sui Yuxuan, but Huanbi saw that she had the favor of the young lady and kept an eye on her all the time.

Cui Jinxi walked behind the rockery and stopped.

"I heard that you were punished by your master last time. Are you feeling better now?"

"Thank you for your concern, it's all right now."

Both of them were smart people, and even in the rockery, they did not mention each other's name.

"I shouldn't have asked you for help, but I'm in real trouble."

"Hey! Don't cry. I just did it for the sake of convenience. That little injury will heal soon."

Su Peisheng was momentarily panicked when he saw the person he liked crying in front of him.

He handed over the handkerchief he had with him.

"Thank you very much. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I felt bad that you were punished because of me, so I embroidered a little item for you. Please accept it."

When Kang Luhai arrived, he saw Cui Jinxi with red eyes reluctantly handing something to the dead eunuch who had his back to him.

No wonder Jinxi asked someone to show her goodwill to him. It turned out that he was being targeted by the old eunuch in flowery clothes.

The flowery robe is a dragon robe, which can only be worn by favored eunuch leaders.

Kang Luhai decided that in order to save Jinxi's face, he could not jump out and stop them.

He skillfully retreated to his hiding place of the past few days, listening to the noises outside with his ears erect.

"I've heard that you have good skills, but seeing is believing."

"If you like it, I'll embroider something else for you next time."

After saying this, Cui Jinxi ran out of the rockery with a red face.

In anger, Kang Luhai broke off a piece of stone, held the stone and crawled out of the cave.

Su Peisheng, with his back to the cave, hung a thin purse around his waist. He was attracted by the fragrance of the handkerchief when the sudden attack made his eyes go black.

A huge force knocked him down, and then a piece of clothing emitting a sour smell blocked his view.

"You damn eunuch, how dare you covet my woman?"

"Today I will show you how many eyes the Horse King has."

Before entering the palace, Kang Luhai was a street thug who fought with others all day long and knew some insidious fighting techniques.

After knocking down the brave eunuch, he took the lead in attacking the castration site.

Then they attacked in two other directions.

Su Peisheng was used to seeing the fights among the people in the harem, and never thought that this scene would happen to him.

It was his own fault to begin with, and now he was caught by Cui Jinxi's "mistress", so he could only blame himself for his bad luck.

He clenched his teeth and dared not even utter a groan.

As long as he doesn't die, he will definitely take revenge.

Su Peisheng swore with red eyes.

After some activities, the elderly Kang Luhai was exhausted and out of breath.

But he did not forget the purpose of coming here. He pressed the old man's face heavily to the ground, leaving half of his eye exposed.

"You bastard, did you see that? This is the Willow Leaf Heart that Jinxi gave me personally. I have another sachet with the word 'An' in it hanging around my waist."

As if afraid that people would not believe him, he took it off and put it in front of people.

When Su Peisheng caught a glimpse of the familiar stitches out of the corner of his eye, he closed his eyes regretfully.

Kang Luhai had shown off enough, so he slapped the dirty guy hard on the back of the head, grabbed his clothes and ran away.

After returning to the Taiji Hall avoiding people, he burned the two purses he had just obtained into ashes while crying.

She threw a piece of pink cloth into the brazier with tears in her eyes.

There were not many eunuchs in the palace who could wear flowery clothes. He guessed that the man was either Jiang Fuhai from Jingren Palace or Zhou Ninghai from Yiku Palace.

These were vindictive people whom he couldn't afford to offend.

He imitated the scholar in the storybook and acted like a real man, but in the end he still had no chance with Cui Jinxi.

In grief, he took out the storybook from under his pillow and put it into the brazier page by page.

He was crying hard when a basin of cold water was poured in his face.

"Kang Luhai, you're hiding in the house burning paper in broad daylight, do you want to die?"

The gray-haired nanny angrily placed the wooden basin on his head.

Qixiang Palace was built of wood. When she first came in, she repeatedly warned people not to light fires in the house, but Kang Luhai turned a deaf ear to her.

"Come here, take Lord Kang, who knowingly committed a crime, into the ear room for a thorough reflection."

She has someone behind her, so she is not afraid of Kang Luhai who betrays his master.

It was precisely because of the nanny's action that Su Peisheng failed to find the person after secretly investigating for many days.
