My eunuch An is a yandere

"Don't kill me, everything can be negotiated. My mother is a princess, and my father is from the direct line of the Huo family in Kyoto. The current emperor is my cousin."

Huo Cheng lay on the ground, trying to move the big foot on his chest. But his shoulder was injured and he had no strength at all. He could only try to impress the other party with his power.

An Jiu increased his strength, making Huo Cheng's face even paler.

"Your Majesty has countless cousins, so what are you, a cousin?"

As soon as Huo Cheng heard An Jiu addressing the emperor, he knew that the person coming was not a commoner.

"who are you?"

"Commander-in-Chief of the Yanwu Guard, Anjiu."

When Huo Cheng left Kyoto, there was no Yanwu Guard. In addition, the Yanwu Guard was established not long ago and had not done anything earth-shattering, so it was not well-known. No one knew about this small border area.

After hearing this, Huo Cheng felt that the other party was cheating.

"What Yanwu Guards? Who sent you?"

"So, Master Huo, please understand. His Majesty wants us to ask you. You were sent here as an inspector, but you haven't written a single memorial in a year, yet you're secretly mining here. What's your intention?"

"Don't try to deceive me with your Majesty. Yan Wuwei has never heard of it."

An Jiu didn't waste any words and took out the gold-rimmed wooden plaque of Yan Wuwei and showed it to Huo Lou carefully.

The wooden plaque is not valuable, but the carvings and patterns show that it was made by the craftsmen of the Imperial Household Department.

"Now Mr. Huo can speak."

Huo Lou was sweating profusely. He thought he was being secretive, but he was discovered unexpectedly. He no longer had the confidence to speak.

"I, I discovered it by accident, not long ago. I knew I should report it to the court, but at the beginning, the production volume was uncertain. I thought I would wait until the production stabilized and there were accurate figures before reporting to His Majesty. Yes, that's it, really."

Huo Cheng was only in his early twenties and had yet to experience the hardships of shouldering the responsibility of the country. The charge of exterminating his entire clan was already plastered on his head, and his heart was in turmoil. He was anxious and anxious, and he wanted to tell everything he knew to gain the emperor's forgiveness and avoid death.

An Jiu looked at the cowardly Huo Lou and felt a little sad. It turned out that Huo Cheng, a noble young man who was beyond the reach of others, was also spineless in the face of death.

He didn't like people who failed at critical moments. After confirming that it was an illegal mine, he took the knife handed to him by Tao Fang and directly cut off Huo Lou's head. The grudge between the two lives was settled.

Tao Fang looked at the corpse, smacked his lips, and couldn't help but admire An Jiu in his heart.

After all, they were royal relatives, childhood friends of the emperor. Although they came under the emperor's orders, there was no guarantee that the emperor would regret it one day. This governor-general didn't hesitate at all and killed them directly, leaving no way out for himself.

How could he have known that Huo Lou would surely die? He just felt even more wary of An Jiu, and warned himself that when working under such a man, he should be less cunning.

Anjiu tore off Huo Lou's robe as a cloth bag, put his head in it, left the body in a mess and packed up his team.

The original plan was to return to Beijing immediately once the assassination attempt was successful, perhaps even in time for the New Year. But now things had changed, and the group rode towards General Fan's camp stationed in the southwest.

The Southwest Camp is not easy to enter, and no one here recognizes the tokens of An Jiu and his group.

Not only did no one recognize the token, no one had even heard of An Jiu's name.

An Jiu threw the cloth bag containing Huo Lou's head to the guard and asked him to show it to General Fan for identification before he was let in.

I won’t go into details about how An Jiu talked with General Fan, and then I returned to the capital.

It was New Year's Day, and there was a night banquet in the palace. Although Bai Liangchuan had no official title, he managed to get a seat thanks to his sister.

Since arriving in Beijing, apart from a quick visit to the palace to express his gratitude to the emperor, this was the first time he had seen Bai Ningwei in many years.

Due to the rules, the two could only look at each other from afar. Bai Ningwei sat in the chief seat of concubines and called a palace maid to bring him a pigeon soup from her table.

Blatant protection can also make some ignorant people behave themselves.

During the banquet, Bai Ningwei left the hall on the pretext of changing clothes. A eunuch also secretly passed a message to Bai Liang, and the two of them talked in a side hall.

"Greetings to the Empress..."

"Don't waste time on empty formalities."

There was no one here, but the palace rules were strict. Bai Liangchuan was a man from outside the palace. According to the rules, without the emperor's consent, Bai Ningwei would never be able to see her brother privately again in her life.

"Is everything okay at home?"

Bai Ningwei still had a good impression of this brother. In her previous life, he had never abused his power to bully others. He had dealt with his wife's family's various disturbances sternly. Although he was easygoing, he was extremely strict when it came to her affairs. His only goal was to prevent his sister from causing trouble. He was a complete sister complex.

It's just that his emotions are implicit, he doesn't say anything but acts. And Bai Ningwei sees everything clearly.

"Father and mother are both fine. I've also heard about the Empress's situation..."

Bai Ningwei took a deep breath. It was New Year's Day and she didn't want to talk about her worries with others, so she changed the subject.

"I've been in Beijing for a while now. Do you have a girl you like? As the Virtuous Consort now, it wouldn't be an insult to her if I granted you a marriage."

Bai Liangchuan's ears turned red, he felt a little embarrassed, and he stammered when he spoke.

"I've only been in the capital for a few days, and I haven't been anywhere else except the bookstore."

This means that you don’t even know the girl, so how can you talk about liking her?

Bai Ningwei tilted her head in confusion.

"Then why are your ears red?"

"Ah? No, no, I'm frozen. It's too cold today."

Bai Liangchuan hurriedly covered his ears with his hands.

This is the state banquet hall, even the side halls are warm enough, how can it be cold?

Bai Ningwei raised an eyebrow but didn't expose him. She didn't have much time to chat with him. Since he said no, then it was no.

"Then when spring comes and flowers bloom, I will choose a noble lady for you."

"do not want!"

Bai Liangchuan refused directly without any hesitation.

"Brother, I have to remind you that after the New Year you will be twenty-two. Young masters your age already have children running around everywhere."

Bai Ningwei didn't support early marriage, but the reality was that if someone wasn't married at this age, it was likely that they had some underlying sexual issues. This would bring shame to the family and make them the laughing stock of their colleagues.

Bai Ningwei didn't care. She was in the palace and had a high position to protect her. No one dared to be rude in front of her.

What she was worried about was that Bai Liangchuan would be ridiculed and targeted.

Bai Liangchuan waved his hands anxiously, not knowing how to explain.

It seemed like he had someone he liked, but he wasn't sure, mainly because he didn't dare to confirm.

But if it is really confirmed, and my sister arranges a marriage for him, wouldn’t that be harming the girl?

"I, I, I don't want to get married yet."

"How do you know you don't want to?"

Bai Ningwei folded her arms across her chest, feeling a little curious.

"I just know."

Someone looked up and down, but didn't dare to look into his sister's eyes.

"You have someone you like."

Bai Ningwei revealed the secret of Bai Liangchuan in one sentence.

"Who is it? Why don't you just tell me?"

………One Sentence Theater…………

Huo Lou: I thought I was the male lead in both my lives. But in my first life, you didn't let me and the female lead have a happy marriage. In my second life, I just got rich, and you made me go bankrupt. Why?
