Jinwei joins hands in rebirth: villains can also eat at the table

She thought to herself, if Jinzhong wasn't a eunuch, how wonderful it would be! She could give up everything and follow him. As long as he gave the order, she would give up everything.

After all, fate played a trick on him. As a eunuch, he was destined to be trapped in the Forbidden City for the rest of his life.

God is cruel. In her previous life, she fell in love with someone who didn't love her, and in this life, he made her fall in love with a eunuch.

This person is just greedy. Even after getting something, he is still not satisfied and only wants more.

In her previous life, she was against power, and in this life, she was against Jinzhong. She woke up with hatred, destined to live an uneasy life.

But it's also okay. Jinzhong is destined to stay in the Forbidden City for the rest of his life, and I am also imprisoned within the palace walls. Two people who are destined to be trapped in the Forbidden City are also a match.

"What is the Lord thinking about?"

Seeing that she didn't say anything, Jinzhong rubbed her white and tender little hand with his thumb in dissatisfaction.

"You asked me for a reward last time. Today is Mid-Autumn Festival, and I happened to make a plate of mooncakes myself. I have to go back and serve the emperor later, so you can eat some to fill your stomach."

Servants always suffered at their masters' banquets. They had to stand at the front for the entire evening, unable to move around, and their legs became stiff after a long night.

She signaled with her eyes, and Jinzhong opened the food box on the small shelf beside him in confusion.

Inside the box were tiny, exquisite mooncakes, each the size of an egg, yet emitting an alluring aroma. Each mooncake was meticulously printed with a tiny jasmine flower pattern.

Jinzhong was a little bit incredulous: "Did the master make this himself?"

"Why? Don't you believe it?"

"No, I just want to make sure my master is well again. Please don't tire yourself out. I miss you so much."

It was the first time for Jinzhong to eat something cooked by Yanwan, and he couldn't hide the joy on his face at all.

"Have a try."

Yan Wan had made this early in the morning, from kneading the dough to preparing the filling, without any other effort. She was eager for his reaction and quickly urged him to try it.

Jinzhong carefully picked up one under Yanwan's expectation, but he couldn't bear to eat it in one bite, so he could only take a small bite to taste it.

This mooncake is made with jasmine flowers and bean paste, and the jasmine fragrance fills the air. The crust is made with fresh Longjing tea juice and dough. It tastes delicate and sweet, with a floral aroma mixed with bean fragrance, and even a faint hint of milk. It is far superior to the greasy date paste mooncakes issued by the palace.

"Your master is so skillful that even the chefs in the imperial kitchen cannot compare to him."

"If it tastes good, eat more."

"You can use it later on the way. Please have your meal first. I have to hurry back to report to the Emperor after I'm done serving you."

After he finished eating a mooncake, he picked up the soup and fed it to her.

It was a bowl of winter melon and mutton soup, simmered for a long time until it had become incredibly delicate. The winter melon practically melted in the broth, blending seamlessly with the savory mutton, emitting wisps of alluring heat. Gently scooping a spoonful into my mouth, I savored the delicious flavor of the broth melting on my tongue. The sweetness of the winter melon and the tenderness of the mutton blended together to create a unique, unforgettable taste.

Yan Wan drank a few sips and then stopped. She had eaten a mooncake in the afternoon, and since she had just recovered from an illness, her appetite was not very good.

"You still have work to do, so go back first to avoid being punished by the emperor. Don't kneel down every time you come next time. It's not like there's no stool."

"I understand. I will come to see you another day."

Yanwan stared at Jinzhong with her eyes fixed on him, looking like a kitten, so adorable. Jinzhong couldn't help himself and reached out to wipe the soup stains from the corners of her mouth.

"The slave retire."

Before Yanwan could react, Jinzhong took the box and retreated.

Touching her slightly hot cheeks, Yan Wan could only watch him leave reluctantly.

Jinzhong walked out of Yongshou Palace like a fool. Seeing that there was no one around, he coughed lightly, straightened his clothes, and went to the palace banquet with a serious look.

When he was approaching the banquet hall, before he even went in, he grabbed a young eunuch who was following the emperor's procession.

"Eunuch Jinzhong, what can I do for you?"

When the young eunuch saw that the visitor was Jinzhong, the second-in-command of the Yangxin Palace, he nodded and bowed hurriedly.

"Please keep an eye on it, don't damage it, or you'll be in trouble."

Jinzhong carefully handed the small box to him and threw a piece of silver as a reward.

Since Yan Wan's rise to favor, many generous gifts have flowed into Jinzhong's pocket, making him, who was already wealthy, like a wealthy landlord. Among the eunuchs in the palace, apart from Li Yu and several eunuchs in charge of the Imperial Household Department, he is the richest.

Jinbao was simple-minded and not as studious as him, so he was often honored by the maids and eunuchs under his command. Whenever he went to the palaces to deliver gifts, the concubines above him would also take care of him.

He was not short of money and had never thought about Li Yu. Firstly, he was his master, and secondly, he was not interested in that.

When I told Yan Wan that I wanted her to be a stepping stone for the Emperor, I was just trying to coax her.

"Well, just watch over it! I've assigned it to you to look after. I, Xiao Dezi, am not good at anything else, but I'm an expert at looking after things. Eunuch Jinzhong, you can go in without worry."

The young eunuch's eyes widened. This small piece of silver was equivalent to his three months' salary.

"Look at you, you're such a money-grubber."

Jinzhong curled his lips and smiled. In a good mood, he reached out and patted his hat lightly, then turned around and went back to serve the emperor.

At this time, the palace banquet was halfway through. Seeing that the emperor was watching the palace maids dancing, Jinzhong stepped forward cautiously and replied.

"Your Majesty, the gifts have been delivered. Concubine Wei was very happy and asked me to pass on a message, saying that she would come to thank Your Majesty in person when she recovered. She also rewarded Your Majesty with mooncakes made by my servants." Jinzhong hunched his waist and didn't even dare to raise his head.

"Well, is Concubine Wei feeling better now?"

"Much better, but it sounds like he's still coughing and his voice is hoarse. I didn't dare to look at him for long. I replied and left. Maybe he'll be fine in a few days." Jinzhong said secretly.

It's not that he didn't look more closely, he almost stared through the little girl, and yet he touched her little hand and fed her the soup with his own hands! It's really like the brave will die of overeating and the timid will die of starvation. Poor Ah Long's head is covered with green.

"I understand, please go down."

The emperor was bored watching the musicians dancing and casually asked them to leave.

"Whoo."

After replying, Jinzhong returned to his seat in front of the emperor, watching the palace maids dancing, but his mind was again drawn to Yongshou Palace, with the image of the Empress of Yongshou Palace in his mind.

I really hate myself for being just a eunuch without any roots. If Yan Wan hadn't followed the emperor, it would have been really unfair to her.

He wasn't jealous that Yan Wan followed the Emperor. After all, the Emperor was the most noble person in the world and could only give Yan Wan the best. The joy of two people was shared by three people, and since he was in the middle, he could pay more attention to her.

If only I were a real man, even if I was just an insignificant guard in the palace. Even if I couldn’t marry her, at least I could help her more.

There was singing and dancing at the banquet, and no one knew about Xiao Jinzhong's bitter feelings.

Yan Wan hadn't slept with the emperor for half a month, which made the emperor feel itchy.

Among all the concubines in the palace, Concubine Wei was the one who served the emperor the best.

She was pretty and sweet-spoken. Thinking of her gentle and kind demeanor and the injustice she had suffered a few days ago, the emperor wondered whether he should give her a promotion.

Not long after, Yan Wan's illness got better, and the emperor turned over her card as soon as the green card from the Jingshifang came up.
