Before he could think about it, a gust of fragrant wind blew by. Concubine Wu looked at Lu Yun with a smile. Her peripheral vision passed over his robe, and there was an inexplicable meaning in her eyes.
"Mother, mother..." Lu Yun took a few deep breaths and slowly calmed down.
He found that Concubine Wu didn't seem to want to kill him.
"Raise your head and look at me."
Lu Yun raised his head and saw that under the lights of the inner court, Concubine Wu was wearing a headdress with a snow-white gooseneck. Her figure was swaying with each step, becoming more and more enchanting.
"Wu Fei, may you be blessed." Lu Yun followed the lines from the TV series in his previous life and bowed.
"Happy Jin'an?" Concubine Wu smiled, her body swaying slightly.
In an instant, the peaks and ridges gathered together, and the waves were like angry waves.
"Where did you learn that word?"
broken!
What should we do now?
A flash of lightning flashed in Lu Yun's mind, and he said: "Eunuch Zhang! Eunuch Zhang always teaches me well!"
"Oh? Really?" Concubine Wu smiled and said nothing.
The sound of needle drop could be heard in the inner court.
Time passed slowly, and Lu Yun felt a little embarrassed, wondering what kind of medicine the Empress Wu was selling in her gourd.
"Are you willing to come to my Yuexin Palace to work?" Concubine Wu asked abruptly.
What?!
Lu Yun was shocked.
Yuexin Palace!
That is much better than their prison yard!
They, the lowest-level eunuchs, sleep in Datongbu in the prison yard, eat brown rice, and do the most menial jobs. If they can enter the Yuexin Palace, their treatment will be different immediately!
Moreover, having just witnessed Xiao Zhuozi's death, he understood that if he wanted to live safely in this deep palace and forbidden courtyard, he needed a backer.
Yuexin Palace is your opportunity!
If you don’t take what God has given you, you will suffer the consequences!
Fight!
"If you want to reply to me, I am willing!" Lu Yun immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"good!"
Concubine Wu stretched her perfect body and said slowly: "Today you go back to the prison yard. Tomorrow, I will ask Eunuch Zhang to bring you here."
"Yes, empress." Lu Yun cupped his hands and said.
Concubine Wu nodded with satisfaction and signaled Lu Yun to retreat.
Concubine Wu was the only one left in the inner court.
She looked at the empty hall, and endless sadness suddenly appeared in her eyes.
"Is he... the one you left for me?"
…
Lu Yun didn't know how he got back to the prison yard. Too many things happened tonight, and if he didn't handle them well, he would face a fatal disaster.
"The host's strong will to survive has been detected, and the god-level sign-in system has been activated!" Suddenly, a majestic voice sounded in Lu Yun's mind.
"Who? Who is talking?!" Lu Yun, who was thinking, was suddenly startled.
He glanced around and didn't see even a ghost.
"Is it because I'm too nervous?"
Just when Lu Yun lamented that it was a false alarm, the voice sounded again.
"Current realm: [Mortal Realm]."
"Unlock sign-in location: [Prison Pen Yard]. Do you want to sign in?"
At this time, Lu Yun determined the source of the sound, which came from his own body.
I also have a golden finger?
At this moment, Lu Yun almost wanted to cry.
Five days!
Do you know how I spent these five days?
"Sign in!" He replied directly without thinking.
"Congratulations to the host, you have received a drop of Marrow Cleansing Liquid!"
"When the host reaches the initial level of Qi and Blood Realm, a new check-in location will be unlocked."
As soon as he finished speaking, a body of crystal clear liquid appeared in front of him. The foam stars inside appeared and disappeared, making it dazzling.
"Is this the marrow cleansing liquid?" Lu Yun subconsciously reached forward and touched it.
But unexpectedly, the marrow cleansing liquid penetrated into his body the moment he came into contact with it.
The next moment, Lu Yun felt a sharp stinging sensation, which spread all over his body in an instant, leaving no place without pain.
"It hurts, it hurts..."
His delicate face suddenly became ferocious, and his whole person seemed to be in a mountain of swords and a sea of fire.
Just when he could no longer hold on any longer, Xiao Zhuozi's headless corpse instantly appeared in his mind.
"I will never, never give up like this!"
"Okay...it's not easy. I finally got such an opportunity. I, I must seize it!"
Lu Yun gritted his teeth and said, the veins on his forehead and corners of his eyes popped out, and his eyes seemed to be radiating blazing fire.
The whole body seemed to be cut by countless blades, and the scorching power penetrated into the body, but the pain remained undiminished.
Lu Yun was so painful that he lost consciousness in the end, and could only passively accept the transformation of the Marrow Cleansing Liquid.
He could feel that everything in this body seemed to be being recast.
Blood, flesh, tendons, bones, skin... everything was torn into pieces, and then reorganized from the broken pieces.
The cycle goes back and forth, over and over again.
…
After an unknown amount of time, the outer door of the prison yard was pushed open, and a group of young eunuchs walked in with delicate steps. Their whispers could be vaguely heard.
"The nobles are treated so well. Even the scraps they give us are much better than what we usually eat."
"Oh, who made us just little eunuchs? What if..."
"Be careful! This is a deep palace, so be careful that the walls have ears!"
Squeak!
Suddenly, the door inside opened, and the sudden movement startled the little eunuchs.
"It's you, Xiaoyunzi!"
"Who do I think I am? I'm scared to death!"
"By the way...why did you come back so early?"
When Lu Yun heard this, he smiled and said, "I saw that nothing happened, so I came back alone."
"You kid can't run away very fast!"
These little eunuchs walked in. One of them walked a few steps and suddenly stopped. He turned around and said doubtfully: "Xiao Yunzi, why do I feel that you are different from before?"
"Have it?"
"It seems to be alas!"
The little eunuch who first asked the question walked around Lu Yun, put his hand on his chin, and pretended to say: "The skin is whiter and tenderer, and I seem to have grown taller. What do you think?"
"Same."
"I think so."
Seeing their appearance, Lu Yun couldn't help but smile and said, "What are you all thinking about? You've been tired all night, why don't you go to bed early!"
"makes sense."
"My legs are still sore!"
The group of little eunuchs washed up and went to bed to rest.
Lying on the cold wooden bed, Lu Yun finally calmed down, thinking about everything that had just happened, something called ambition quietly grew in his mind.
There was Zhao Gao in the Qin Dynasty, Li Fuguo in the Tang Dynasty, Wei Zhongxian in the Ming Dynasty, and Li Lianying in the Qing Dynasty. These are all examples of sages in the circle of eunuchs.
Relying on the god-level sign-in system, I might not be able to do this in the future.
"I hope that in the history books of future generations in this life, I can add a sentence, "There is Lu Yun..."
