Zhuo Xi’er gritted her teeth in anger. He was just a eunuch, what’s wrong with him? When she becomes the empress one day, she must let the dead eunuch know how powerful she is.
But right now, she didn’t dare to fight against this dead eunuch.
This dead eunuch follows the emperor in awe, who knows if he will say something unpleasant behind her back, causing the emperor to dislike her?
Zhuo Xi’er took a deep breath, swallowed the unpleasantness in her belly, forced a smile on her face, and said, “Eunuch Fu likes to joke, who doesn’t know that you are a big man by the emperor’s side, how can you don’t know the emperor’s affairs?”
Eunuch Fu just smiled without saying a word and walked forward without answering anymore.
Zhuo Xi’er was bored, she shut her mouth, followed Eunuch Fu obediently, went to the side hall to clean her face, re-combed her hair, and took off some dazzling gemstone hair accessories. Then went back to the imperial study with Eunuch Fu.
Zhuo Xi’er walked a few steps slowly and said to the palace maid who was following her: “Am I ugly now?”
The palace maid’s half-drooped head immediately shook like a rattle, “Young lady is naturally beautiful, how can she be ugly.”
It would be better without those rashes. The palace maid muttered in her heart but did not dare to say it.
She knows the young lady’s temperament best. Even if she knows she was telling the truth, as long as she was unhappy when she hears it, she will still be punished.
Eunuch Fu has a good ear and eyesight. Although he and Zhuo Xier were separated by more than ten steps, the voices of the two still clearly penetrated his ears.
He shook his head lightly, sighed deeply in his heart, said nothing, quickened his pace, and brought Zhuo Xi’er back to the imperial study.
At this time, the door of the imperial study room was closed, and the eunuch guarding the door saw him coming back, hurried forward to meet him, and whispered to Eunuch Fu: “Eunuch Fu, the emperor is tired and has already fallen asleep, and ordered no one to disturb him.”
Eunuch Fu nodded. The emperor had just suffered from heartache. Every time he suffered from heartache, he would become weak, and it was normal for him to rest.
“What’s the matter?” Zhuo Xi’er stepped forward and frowned when she saw that the door was closed, thinking that some vixen in the palace would take advantage of her absence to get in first!
Eunuch Fu said: “The emperor is tired and has already fallen asleep. Miss Zhuo should go back today, and it will not be too late to visit the emperor another day.”
Zhuo Xi’er was so angry, she came and went to wash her face, but what?
As a result, he closed the door and didn’t see her, what did he mean?
Looking at the door of the imperial study, she wanted to kick the door open and rushed in to ask what he meant.
After thinking about it, she finally didn’t dare to do it. After all, this was the palace, and he, after all, was the emperor.
Unwilling, Zhuo Xi’er turned around and left. As soon as she walked out of the courtyard of the imperial study, she said to the palace maid beside her, “Go back to the manor, I have something important to discuss with my father.”
She didn’t believe it. With her father’s current power in the court, would it be difficult for the emperor to grant her a posthumous position?
She didn’t mention it before, it was not because she didn’t want to, but now she thinks about it.
She wanted to stay by his side justifiably and wanted to see him every day, not like now, even seeing him once was as tricky as the sky.
That night, Zhuo Xi’er returned to Weiyuan Houfu, had a long secret conversation with her father, and then quietly returned to the palace.
Although Chu Yan could not see these, someone would send a message to him.
After listening to the remarks from the secret guards, Chu Yan threw the replay in his hand back on the table, with a cold smile on his face, “I want to see, what exactly is this Master Weiyuan planning to do.”
