Xiao Linzi, who had the stone ball removed from his mouth, was still lying on the ground. After a while, his eyes regained consciousness and he became sober. He saw two eunuchs, one old and one young, looking down at him expressionlessly.
Xiao Fanzi!
The first thing he noticed was Yang Fan's face!
He sat up suddenly.
The hatred in my heart is boiling!
It was this bastard who had just tied him up like that! That look, that look made him feel ashamed just thinking about it!
The scariest thing is how he feels!
While he felt extremely ashamed in his heart, he also had a strange enjoyment that he didn't want to admit.
Damn, damn!
how so!
"Asshole! You, this shameless villain!"
Xiao Linzi suppressed some kind of throbbing in his heart, as if he was planning to use this method to cover up the strangeness he just showed, and his lips were trembling violently.
When Yang Fan saw this, his eyes flashed slightly, as if he understood something.
"Ahem."
The corners of his mouth raised, he coughed twice, lowered his eyes and retreated behind Eunuch Li.
It turns out you are such a little Linzi!
That knowing look made Xiao Linzi's pupils shrink sharply.
At this time, he finally noticed Eunuch Li, who had his hands shrunk in his sleeves and looked as old as a Buddha, and his heart trembled.
"Eunuch Li!"
His expression changed.
Being able to sneak into Kunning Palace and become Huang Eunuch's adopted son Gan'er in just one year, he was certainly not an idiot and he immediately realized the problem.
He quickly took a look at his surroundings, and his expression suddenly turned ugly. He was secretly captured by Xiao Fanzi and secretly taken to an unknown woodshed.
It’s not like I’m here to have a nice cup of tea and talk!
"You, what on earth do you want to do!"
He looked guarded and alert.
Eunuch Li slowly moved forward, his skinny figure with a huge shadow, looking at him condescendingly and said: "We have something to ask you."
"I won't say anything!"
Xiao Linzi responded decisively, his cheeks trembling twice.
"Haha, why bother!"
"You are not considered a newcomer anymore. You should have heard about our family's methods back then. We advise you to cooperate honestly and answer our questions obediently. Otherwise, your little body will not be able to withstand our family's methods."
"After all, your life is yours, and your secrets are other people's, right?"
Eunuch Li was originally an old man in the palace.
Back then, when there were infighting within the palace, fighting for the palm, he was considered a man of the hour, both in terms of means and character, he was first-class.
How easy is it to resist him without opening your mouth?
At this moment, his words were like a sharp blade that easily pierced Xiao Linzi's fragile defense.
For a moment, Xiao Linzi's expression began to change.
Naturally, he had heard his adoptive father, Eunuch Huang, talk about Eunuch Li. He was of high seniority and cruel, and he was also a prominent figure in the palace back then.
Instead of standing up in front of the other party, it is better to see what the other party's purpose is.
Xiao Linzi hesitated for a moment and finally spoke: "I wonder what Eunuch Li wants to ask?"
Eunuch Li showed a faint smile, as if he expected that the other party would compromise: "What our family wants to know is very simple, and that is the attitude of the person in Kunning Palace."
"This, how could the young one know..."
"Don't deny it."
Eunuch Li said slowly, "Our family has just chosen Xiao Fanzi and others to enter the Evergreen Palace, and you have set your sights on them. If you say that you just made your own decision, we will not believe it."
Xiao Linzi knew that he couldn't hide it, so he had to confess: "That was my adoptive father, Eunuch Huang's idea. He wanted to use this to suppress the arrogance of Changqing Palace."
Eunuch Huang?
Just him?
Eunuch Li's eyes flashed with impatience, and his voice became cold and fierce.
"Even now, we are still covering up!"
"That old dog named Huang alone is not qualified to suppress the Evergreen Palace!"
"What our family wants to know is why! Why does Eunuch Huang dare to do this! Why is the man in Kunning Palace so hostile to Evergreen Palace!"
Eunuch Li finally put his words out in the open.
Concubine Chen was born into a noble family, and her father was a prince who was in charge of the Longwu Guard. Since she did not have a son, the queen could only win over her, but could not be so hostile.
Eunuch Li thought of the Queen's seemingly intimate but actually heart-wrenching scene at the Kunning Palace banquet tonight, and even he felt a faint chill in his heart.
To make the master of the harem show such an attitude.
There must be something hidden in it.
Xiao Linzi's expression turned gloomy. He naturally knew the secret, but if the matter was revealed, he would definitely not end well if it came to light!
When Yang Fan heard this, he already understood something. He pondered for a moment, looked across the faces of Eunuch Li and Xiao Linzi, and suddenly spoke.
"Xiao Linzi, the attitude of the person in Kunning Palace is not a secret at the moment, but as the saying goes, everything happens for a reason, what we want to know now is that reason!"
"Imagine, even you know something, how many people may know it. Even if you say it, who will know that you said it!"
As soon as these words came out, Xiao Linzi's attitude softened obviously.
Xiao Linzi is a smart person, and smart people are afraid of death. After he figured out the cause and effect, he said: "I can tell the hidden truth, but I want a guarantee from Eunuch Li!"
"What guarantee?"
"Promise you won't kill me!"
Xiao Linzi said seriously.
"Don't worry, as long as you tell the truth, our family will definitely not make things difficult for you, and maybe we will give you some benefits and let you climb higher."
In the eyes of Eunuch Li, the living Xiao Linzi is naturally of higher value.
After all, once Xiao Linzi lets go, it will be equivalent to personally delivering the handle to Eunuch Li.
How can you be free if you give someone a handle? From now on, Xiao Linzi can only choose to be a chess piece in the hands of Eunuch Li, or a chess piece in Kunning Palace.
A smart person will not give up the chess pieces that he can use easily.
Eunuch Li is naturally a smart man.
Xiao Linzi knew this and breathed a sigh of relief: "Does father-in-law know about the Thirteenth Prince?"
"This matter is actually related to the Thirteenth Prince?"
Eunuch Li frowned.
The thirteenth prince, Zhu Zhaolin, was the second son of the empress. He had reached the age where he had grown up and should leave the palace to live in the palace. However, the empress did not want to abandon her youngest son and actually delayed the matter.
Therefore, the Thirteenth Prince still lingers in the palace, often doing ridiculous things, and secretly creating a lot of controversy.
He didn't expect that the Queen's hostility to Concubine Chen was actually related to the Thirteenth Prince!
Now that Xiao Linzi had spoken, he simply pointed out the truth directly: "The Thirteenth Prince was obsessed with Concubine Chen, and even sent people to dress up as Concubine Chen, driving her around every day. This matter was noticed by the Queen, who suspected that Concubine Chen was secretly seducing the Tenth Prince.
The third prince is contrary to human ethics and has ulterior motives!"
boom!
This was like a thunder that hit Eunuch Li and Yang Fan in their minds.
Yang Fan's face turned green.
After hearing such secrets, how can I still live peacefully in the future?
