It was as if his hands had been scorched by fire, and he threw the letter paper to the other end of the desk. He stared blankly for a while, not knowing why he had such a weird feeling.

He murmured in his heart that his confidant was right, this Qingyao was indeed very strange, this letter was different from the past.

There was no one in the study room, but he still pretended to make a fist and coughed lightly, with an unusually noble and reserved expression, and Fu reached out to the letter paper again and began to read it carefully.

There was nothing special to pay attention to later. When Zhang Qingyao said that he had been transferred to work in Zhaochun Palace, he seemed to be satisfied, and he could even see a hint of complacency when he looked closely.

Zhang Qingyao fell in love with him.

In the past, he didn't have any thoughts about this fact, he just thought that emotion is a rein with a good hand to control the chess pieces, which is just convenient, but today perhaps because of seeing different words and sentences, he suddenly felt that this fact became extremely pleasing to the eye Wake up feeling good.

But the good mood didn't last until he finished reading the envelope.

"There are old and young? Do you need some silver to buy things to keep warm at home?"

Meng Lichang let out a soft snort, feeling that Zhang Qingyao was much smarter than before, adding this sentence, it seemed like a regular wife was begging for good things to supplement her mother's family.Where did this little eyeliner have the guts to ask him for money?And that "under the small"?

"Dark Seven." He called out his shadow guard.

"Subordinates are here."

"Go and find out who else is in Qingyao's family, especially the children."

An Qi paused, and reminded: "My lord, you checked Zhang Qingyao's details when you were using him before."

"Do you disagree with what the king said?"

"The subordinates have gone too far, so let's go and investigate."

Watching the shadow guard leave, Meng Lichang wanted to burn the letter paper he had finished reading, but his heart moved, and he accidentally put it in a book he often read.

In case An Qi really finds out something, this is the incriminating evidence against Zhang Qingyao!So it's better to keep it first.

……

In a blink of an eye, Cheng Cheng also stayed in the palace for half a month, and went to Zhaochun Palace every day to sweep the floor, but only saw Concubine Zhao on the first day.

The palace lady saw him every day, but she didn't know what was wrong, and she made a detour when she saw him, which made him very depressed and doubted life for a while.

"Can't eunuchs have spring? I think this is a kind of discrimination."

"Maybe they prefer someone who can bring them sexual | happiness." 1404 sighed, "And you don't seem to have this condition."

"...It's okay, I'll go out of the palace someday to have a look. If it doesn't work, I'll spend a lot of money to redeem an oiran, or try my luck to see if I can meet a girl who sells her body to bury her father." Cheng Cheng comforted himself, "The road to marrying a wife There is more than one way."

"Zhang Qingyao, the imperial concubine is calling you to come in." A clear voice sounded from behind, Cheng Cheng looked over and found that it was the court lady Xiaolu, looking at him with a sullen face.

Cheng Cheng was taken aback. He put down the broom, wiped his hands, and smiled at Xiaolu: "Sister, I'll go in right away."

Xiaolu blushed, she really couldn't stop Zhang Qingyao from laughing, but when she thought of him being hopelessly promiscuous, she couldn't help but glared at him again.

Cheng Cheng looked at her strange look calmly.After so many days, he was used to the girls in the palace looking at him like this.

Walking quickly into Zhaochun Palace, Concubine Zhao was dressing herself in front of the bronze mirror, Cheng Cheng lowered his head and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty."

Concubine Zhao didn't speak, and waited until she found a satisfactory golden hairpin from the jewelry box and put it on her head before she called Cheng Cheng up and asked him how long he had been here to sweep the floor.

Cheng Cheng respectfully replied, "It's been half a month."

Concubine Zhao asked him again: "How long have you been in the palace?"

"Two and a half months."

"It's not that long."

Cheng Sheng still lowered his head.Although Concubine Zhao is not very old, she should not be underestimated in terms of extroverted emotions, scheming, etc., and she should not be underestimated.

Concubine Zhao stood up and walked in front of Cheng Cheng. From his perspective, she could only see a pair of exquisite women's shoes embroidered with gold thread.A pair of shiny jade hands stretched out to lift his chin, and Concubine Zhao's delicate face met Cheng Cheng's eyes.

"This face is amazing no matter how many times you look at it." Concubine Zhao looked at him carefully, her eyes seemed to be fascinated.Cheng Cheng didn't know what she meant, so he lowered his gaze after a glance, trying not to touch her gaze.

Concubine Zhao let go of her hand, and said softly: "I remember, last time you said that I am the most beautiful woman you have ever seen."

Cheng Sheng paused, and said cautiously: "Now the imperial concubine is also the most beautiful woman in the eyes of the servants, and it has always been the same in the past and in the future."

"Past? Present? Future?" The smile on Concubine Zhao's face faded quite a bit. The face was completely indifferent, and a pair of phoenix eyes looked at Cheng Cheng, and there seemed to be resentment in it.

"Men in this world have only one way of speaking. They all pretend to be affectionate and single-minded, but their behavior is dissolute and ruthless."

Cheng Cheng knelt down and didn't speak.What he said just now obviously reminded the imperial concubine of some sad past, and now he was worried, thinking that he might be finished.

Unexpectedly, Concubine Zhao turned the conversation around and asked him if he knew why the maids in court didn't talk to him recently.

Mentioning this, Cheng Cheng felt sorrow and grievance welling up in his heart. He said: "I don't know what I did wrong to make all my sisters angry. I can correct my mistakes, but they don't say anything to this slave at all. This wrong slave is going to do it again." Where should I find it?"

He didn't bow his head when he said this, Concubine Zhao could clearly see his aggrieved pouting in the bronze mirror.

"You can ask Lu Cui about this matter." Concubine Zhao's eyes softened for a moment, and at the same time she ordered, "From tomorrow onwards, you will come in to serve and live in the left ear room."

Cheng Sheng answered obediently.After he left Zhaochun Palace, he went to find Xiaolu, who stared at him while explaining, Cheng Sheng felt like a dog after listening to him with a knife in his eye.

This is a typical case of stealing chickens and losing money, and seeing Lu Cui like that, he doesn't seem to be able to get rid of it. Cheng Cheng guessed that the road in the palace might be broken.He has to learn his lesson, leave the palace when he finds the right opportunity, and implement the plan BCD. Anyway, his wife must marry, so he doesn't believe it. Is it really so difficult to marry a wife?

When he got back to his residence, he started to pack his things.When it comes to tidying up, the most important things are the letter papers wrapped in cowhide. The original owner only has two pieces of clothes, one of which is still on his body, so there is really nothing to take.

Seeing that it was still early, he went to Zhang Lanji first, told him that he was going to serve Concubine Zhao, and then asked Zhang Lanji to leave the palace.

Cheng Cheng wiped his tears and knelt down and said: "The apprentice has been here for three months, and I really can't bear the homesickness. I just want to go home and take another look, and hope that Master will take pity on me."

Zhang Lanji quickly got down from the couch, helped him up and said, "The body, hair and skin are taken care of by my parents, even if they are far away, they can't help but feel sorry for me. They just treat me casually on weekdays. Why are you kneeling today? Get up quickly."

Cheng Cheng continued to sob: "Then leave the palace?"

"Of course it depends on you."

Cheng Cheng covered his face with the slightly wide sleeves of the eunuch uniform, thinking that this Lanji was too kind to the original owner, there must be something hidden in it, but he was only here to marry his wife and do some tasks, so some things should not be too much Good question, don't get involved in right and wrong if you can live in peace and stability.

Zhang Lanji looked at Cheng Cheng whose eyes were flushed and said with emotion: "You are very filial. If Jiang..., your mother would be so happy to know your filial piety."

Cheng Cheng pretended not to hear his slip of the tongue, and said with a wry smile: "I'm not filial here, but coming to the palace is the biggest disobedience." After finishing speaking, he was like a frightened rabbit, covering his lips in fear. mouth, looked carefully at Zhang Lanji, and saw that he was still kind, so he let go and said, "The apprentice said something wrong, you should slap your mouth."

"It's okay, just pay attention in the future." Zhang Lanji also had a ray of sadness on his face, "In this case, after the Dragon Boat Festival banquet is over, I will give you three days off to go out of the palace and have a good talk with your mother."

He took down a box from the black wooden wardrobe, and took out a pearl necklace from it. The pearls on it were all the size of a thumb, round and smooth, and still purple.Cheng Cheng knew it was a rare item at a glance.

"You keep it, pawn it after leaving the palace, and take it home to buy a few properties."

Cheng Cheng stood blankly holding the pearl necklace stuffed into his hand, and it took him a long time to realize, he quickly put it on Zhang Lanji's desk and said: "Since ancient times, apprentices have always respected their masters, and besides, I will not be rewarded for nothing, I..."

"It's not for you." Zhang Lanji interrupted Cheng Cheng's refusal, "This is for your parents. They have suffered for half their lives, and it's time for some sweetness."

Zhang Lanji used the original owner's parents to pressure Cheng Cheng, so he couldn't speak, and only looked at the pearl necklace in embarrassment.

"Their family is a good person." He said this in a low voice, Cheng Cheng couldn't hear clearly, but when he wanted to ask, he was kicked out, with the pearl necklace still hanging around his neck.

The man was shining under the sun, so he quickly took off the necklace and put it in his arms, he still understood the principle of not revealing his wealth.

Taking a deep look at the closed door, Cheng Cheng bowed to Zhang Lanji's room before leaving.

After he left, Zhang Lanji opened the door again.Outside, the sun is shining, the breeze is blowing, and the flowers are blooming.

Zhang Lanji looked at Cheng Cheng's back, vaguely overlapped that magnificent back with him, and said softly to the sky: "I met him, don't worry, he doesn't look like you at all, But the eyes were printed from the same mold."

"It's not good at all. He actually became an eunuch...Maybe there is God's will in the dark. Whether he becomes an eunuch, whether he is humiliated or ridiculed in the future, he can still live."

"I'll take care of him for you."
