My eunuch An is a yandere

Chapter 78 Golden Key

Bai Liangchuan forced Chen Xu to become sworn brothers, asking them not to be born on the same day but to die on the same day. This made Chen Xu's brother Chen Tong furious.

According to Chen Xu, judging by his appearance and seniority, he found himself a brother to compete with him for his sister.

It would be impossible for Chen Xu to change his words and say that he actually recognized his adoptive father.

This also meant that she had no legitimate reason to move back home.

Who would stay at their brother's house all the time for no reason? If you really want to stay, that's fine. Chen Xu has two brothers, so he can't favor one over the other. If he stays at Chen's house for two days, he has to stay at Bai's house for two days as well.

Things were developing in a strange direction.

How Chen Tong and Bai Liangchuan snatched his sister back home to live with her became a common daily routine in the bookstore.

Bai Ningwei calmed herself down and threw herself back into the kindergarten, starting with grading and preparing for the Royal Primary School.

Learning from the failure of her previous life, she was determined to implement compulsory education this time.

In early February, Anjiu finally returned with Huo Cheng's head.

In the imperial study, Xiao Duo was very excited when he saw the head of Huo Cheng and a new silver mine added to the map.

"Anjiu, you're great. You did a great job. Tell me, how do you want me to reward you?"

Anjiu knelt on one knee, his eyes fixed on the carpet beneath his feet, and answered neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Your Majesty is far-sighted, and I dare not take credit for it."

"Nothing you want? But I have always been clear about rewards and punishments. I will reward you with a house and a hundred acres of imperial farmland."

The imperial farm is more affordable than gold and silver. It can be seen that Xiao Duo is very satisfied with having a silver mine.

An Jiu received the reward and went to Lingqi Palace at night.

Bai Ningwei was already waiting for him.

The news that Bai Tianan was awarded the imperial farm spread throughout the palace, and everyone expressed their envy.

Knowing that he would come, Bai Ningwei dismissed the palace maids early and sat alone on the throne in the main hall, exuding the aura of a queen dowager.

When An Jiu came in, he saw the person he was thinking about, like the Queen Mother of the West, sitting at the top waiting for him.

This made him excited but also a little flustered. After all, he had stolen many times, but this was the first time he had met her in such a serious manner.

"Greetings to your Majesty."

Bai Ningwei raised her hand before he could properly kneel down.

"come over."

There was a hint of resentment in her words, but she herself didn't even realize it.

The hall was brightly lit and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn. An Jiu walked over honestly for a rare time and spoke with lowered brows and a polite look.

"I've heard about the grievances your majesty has endured in the palace. I was away for quite some time this time, so I couldn't bring you anything nice. I only have the golden key to the Qianfeng Bank."

As he spoke, he took out a golden key from his sleeve, stepped onto the steps in an orderly manner, stood beside the throne, and handed it to Bai Ningwei.

There were only two words "Qianfeng" engraved on the key, as well as a private seal, and the name on the private seal was Bai Ningwei.

"You gave me silver?"

Bai Ningwei was surprised. Qianfeng Money House was one of the oldest and most famous banks in Kyoto. She had never deposited money there, but she had heard of its reputation.

You can't buy a golden key without ten thousand taels of silver.

"There is twenty thousand taels of silver in it. Your Majesty can use it whenever you need it."

As Anjiu spoke, he placed his hands on both sides of the throne, forming an encircling shape to trap the people within his range.

When Bai Ningwei heard that it was twenty thousand taels of silver, she was so shocked by the number that she didn't realize the situation had reversed. She was just high and mighty, but now she had become someone who needed to be looked up to.

"Where did you get so much money?"

"We got it from suppressing bandits."

"Go ahead and lie to the devil."

Bai Ningwei didn't believe any bandit could have so much silver, and she found herself trapped on the throne. She angrily reached out to shake off someone's shackles. Unexpectedly, An Jiuzhen was pushed by her strength and stumbled to the ground, rolling down the steps.

"No, why did you fall down when I pushed you?"

Bai Ningwei no longer maintained her composure and hurriedly stood up to help the person, but An Jiu pulled her into his arms, locked her, and made her lie on top of him.

"My lady, please don't move. I'm injured. Please allow me to rest for a while."

"If you're hurt, let me get up so I don't crush you anymore."

Bai Ningwei gritted her teeth, feeling that her worries just now were unnecessary.

"In order to return early, I killed three horses along the way. When I arrived in the capital, I fell off the horse. It felt like all the bones in my body were broken. My queen, please be kind to me for once."

Not only did Anjiu not let go, he also complained pitifully about his grievances.

After hearing this, Bai Ningwei really didn't dare to struggle. After all, he was being soft-hearted, and the other party's words were so pitiful. Since she didn't know whether it was true or not, she could only use her ultimate move.

Plank!

An Jiu was still secretly rejoicing that pretending to be pitiful was indeed effective, but he felt something was wrong. He looked up and his face was full of black lines.

It turns out that the awake queen is very difficult to deal with.

"I feel like I can get up."

This was said with gnashing of teeth.

Bai Ningwei stood up and clapped her hands, not forgetting to give a kind reminder.

"Take care of your body. After all, your body is your capital."

An Jiu came up to him.

"My Lady, do you think my body is worthless?"

"What I'm saying is that without a healthy body, everything else is meaningless."

"Yes, I don't have a good body, so I am worthless in the eyes of the Queen. Everything I do and think is in vain, right?"

"I didn't mean what you thought I meant."

Bai Ningwei wanted to hold her forehead, not understanding how this conversation had reached the point of affecting Anjiu's pride. That was clearly not what she meant.

The original words were: "The body is the capital of revolution." But revolution isn't a word you can throw around lightly. She had just changed her words, and how did it fit Anjiu's flaws? This was really hard to explain.

"Your Majesty, do you know what I am thinking?"

An Jiu held the person in his arms with one hand and held Bai Ningwei's wrist with the other.

As luck would have it, it was the hand in which she held the golden key.

Looking at the golden key gleaming in the candlelight, Bai Ningwei knew An Jiu had done it on purpose. He was hinting at her that she was not the right person to be a master if she earned money but didn't coax him.

Anjiu is always like this, using everything he can to make himself feel unworthy first, and then seize the loopholes in her words to expose his own scars, just in exchange for a small response from her.

He knew that he would eventually compromise in such an unequal exchange, and he would further test his bottom line.

Faced with such a master at manipulating people's hearts, she suddenly didn't want to play roundabout games with An Jiu anymore.

"Anjiu, I never thought that a person with a disability should be inferior to others. You understand me, otherwise you wouldn't choose me, right?"

"My lady, don't say it."

Hearing Bai Ningwei's calm words, An Jiu felt his blood instantly run cold. He unconsciously let go of her hand and didn't want to listen to her continue.

"I don't know how long your obsession with me will last, but Anjiu, compared to love, I believe in win-win situations more. We can have common interests and long-term cooperation."

Hearing that it was not a rejection, An Jiu breathed a sigh of relief.

He had too many beautiful dreams these days, and he became greedy and wanted more.

Bai Ningwei's decision not to kill him could no longer satisfy his one-sided emotional fantasy, and not refusing became his new bottom line.

Even he didn't know what he would have done if the queen had rejected him just now.

Fortunately, after many twists and turns of thoughts, the two of them seemed to have finally come together on the same page at this moment.
