My eunuch An is a yandere

When Wang Wenqing entered the warm room, he saw the empress dowager curled up on the couch, her head resting on Governor An's legs, like a well-behaved cat, sleeping soundly.

Anjiu also leaned comfortably to the side, supporting his head with one hand and playing with the empress dowager's hair with the other.

The two of them behaved intimately, and the sunlight shone on them through the carved windows, forming patches of mottled light and shadow, making the two of them look like a painting, so beautiful that it made people jealous.

An Jiu looked up and saw that it was Wang Wenqing who came in. He subconsciously wanted to make some remedial moves, but he suppressed the action again.

There were already rumors about him staying in the palace. When he proposed to watch Bai Ningwei sleep for a while, he had actually already made up his mind to make it public.

Since Wang Wenqing had seen it, he decided not to hide it anymore and see how these people would react.

Wang Wenqing and An Jiu's eyes met, and they were in a dilemma.

He was the emperor's attendant, responsible for recording the emperor's daily life. He originally served by the emperor's side in the palace.

Now that the young emperor is not in power, he took advantage of this trip to the palace to stay by the side of the empress dowager.

An Jiu had been wary of Wang Wenqing ever since he met him. At this moment, he relaxed and waved at Wang Wenqing, asking him to leave.

His Weiwei was resting, so what was there to record? They were just a bunch of idle people who had nothing to do and were looking for trouble.

Wang Wenqing didn't show it on his face, but he was actually gritting his teeth. He could only lower his head and take a few steps back before turning around and leaving.

A eunuch, a rootless man, relying on the favor of the empress dowager, dared to treat him, a young man from an official family, with such disrespect.

But isn’t the Queen Mother too easy to fool? A eunuch can also gain the favor of the master. Why is that? Is it because he is good-looking?

Thinking that he was not bad looking, Wang Wenqing returned to the study and looked around. Unfortunately, this was his office and there was no mirror except for writing brushes, inkstones, paper and inkstone.

The news that An Jiu was favored by the Queen Mother made many people eager to make a move.

It was different from what the ministers and King Jing had originally thought. They just wanted to find some handsome eunuchs to accompany Bai Ningwei so that she would not want to interfere in men's affairs.

Now, there are not only people from poor families but also people from wealthy families who want to get close to Bai Ningwei.

Instead, they hoped that Bai Ningwei would hold great power and be attracted to them, giving them more power.

The second wife of the Marquis of Pingxi stopped her son who was about to go out.

"Tian Qi, stop right there."

Tian Qi paused, his unhappy expression couldn't look good even with his upturned peach blossom eyes.

"Have you taken my words to heart? There will be a banquet at the palace in a couple of days, and you must attend to it with all your heart. You must impress the Empress Dowager."

"Mother! The Queen Mother is six or seven years older than me. How could you bear to let me do this!"

The woman was so angry at her son's words that she covered her eyes and cried.

"I'm doing this for you. Your father isn't the eldest son, so everything in the Tian family will have nothing to do with you in the future. If you don't seize the opportunity, you'll regret it later."

"Besides, the Queen Mother is only six years older than you. She is in the prime of her youth and still very beautiful. If you can really marry her, it will be a loss for you."

"I know, I know."

Tian Qi said this impatiently and left angrily.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the banquet.

The so-called banquet was simply because the atmosphere was less solemn than that of the imperial palace, and the flowers were in full bloom, creating a beautiful scene. Any official of the third rank or above in the capital could bring one or two of their family members and children to visit the palace.

This is one of the regular activities in the palace, and it is also a disguised blind date.

Bai Ningwei only attended the opening ceremony and left with an excuse.

She couldn't relax among this group of people, so she might as well find a quiet place to have afternoon tea and give herself a break.

Bai Weiwei took advantage of the lively weather to leave, but people who were paying attention could still notice her.

"Hezi, do you think I should rest by the lake or in the pavilion?"

Both places are nice, one has a lake view and the other is located high up and has a far view.

Hezi had served Bai Ningwei for several years and was already familiar with her preferences and temperament, pointing to the lake.

"It's a nice day now, Your Majesty. You might as well go to the lake. I'll have someone set up a fishing rod nearby, and I can catch a couple of fish to roast. If Your Majesty can't finish them all, you can give them to us as a reward. That's the blessing we've earned through several lifetimes."

This was a good idea, so Bai Ningwei walked towards the lake.

Soon, the futons, low tables, fruits, snacks and tea were neatly arranged by the lake.

Three fishing rods have also been set up, and there is a barbecue oven next to it.

There was a eunuch in the lake paddling a small boat, driving the fish towards this side.

Bai Ningwei picked up a fishing rod at random. Someone came up to bait the hook. She just had to throw the hook far away and wait for the fish to bite.

The fish in the lake were probably stupid. Bai Ningwei, a half-baked person, just cast her bait and soon a fish took the bait.

When the fish was caught, it turned out to be a big carp weighing two kilograms.

It's obvious that these fish were specially fattened and released into the lake today.

Bai Ningwei decided to quit while she was ahead and had the fish grilled.

She was in a good mood and took off the string of forbidden steps from her waist.

"I'm done playing. Three of you come out and have a fishing competition. Whoever catches the most fish, and the heaviest weight, will get the prize."

Even the most ordinary things on the Queen Mother's body are royal treasures.

Immediately, the young eunuchs were eager to give it a try.

Unexpectedly, Wang Wenqing, who was in charge of recording the empress dowager's daily life, stood up, picked up a fishing rod and bowed.

"I am willing to participate."

"can."

Bai Ningwei hadn't expected Wang Wenqing to participate. After all, apart from him being an official, the rest of the people by the lake were eunuchs and palace maids.

Competing with palace maids is an act of humiliation.

Only two of the three fishing rods were left, and they were immediately occupied by the other two eunuchs.

The game started immediately, with Hezi as the referee.

Blue sky and white clouds, gentle river breeze.

Bai Ningwei ate the grilled fish and felt that freshly caught fish was the best.

It’s a pity that Anjiu is not here now, so I can’t eat it.

I was thinking that one day when we were both not busy, we could invite more people to have a barbecue by the lake to liven things up.

At that time, there won’t be so many palace maids serving by the side. Everyone can do it themselves, skewering or grilling the meat, which will be more interesting to eat.

Just as I was thinking about it, the fishing competition also came to an end.

As expected, Wang Wenqing won, and he won far more than the two eunuchs, which shows that he is a master in private.

Bai Ningwei raised her hand, and Caihe placed the set of forbidden steps in a brocade box and handed it to him.

Looking at the other two eunuchs who didn't win the prize and were staring at the Jade Forbidden Step eagerly, Bai Ningwei announced with a smile.

"You two are fishing well, there will be rewards for first, second and third place."

The runner-up gets a gold ingot and the third place gets a silver ingot.

"Thank you, Queen Mother, for the reward."

Amidst cheers, one of the caught fish was sent to the imperial kitchen, and the rest were roasted on the spot so that the palace maids could also enjoy a feast.

It was rare to see these palace maids relaxing for a moment in the palace. Bai Ningwei quietly stood up and prepared to leave again.

Hezi immediately followed upon seeing this, but before leaving, he looked coldly at Wang Wenqing as he carefully put the brocade box containing the forbidden steps into his arms.
