Chapter 194 Meeting with the Chief Eunuch
As Zhao Feng said, after they had eaten and drunk their fill, there was still more than half of the jar left.
If they ate every meal, it would probably take two or three days.
And although the stewed spinal cord tasted good, it was still a bit greasy if you ate too much.
If you consider the combination of food, it might take longer to finish.
"It really is a large amount that satisfies you."
Li Xuan burped, and his whole body was warm. He was very satisfied with today's task reward.
Of course, the main reason for satisfaction was that Princess Ankang had a good meal.
Princess Ankang ate several bowls, and her face was flushed with warmth, and she felt drowsy and sleepy.
She didn't sleep well last night, and she hadn't eaten all day since she got up today.
After eating so well, she was inevitably a little tired, and she was carried back to bed by Yu'er and fell asleep.
In any case, Princess Ankang didn't look as sad and upset as she was yesterday.
Li Xuan also hoped that Princess Ankang could accept the disaster that happened in Beiliang as soon as possible.
If there is a chance in the future, he also wants to take Princess Ankang into the place covered by the cold wave to see what the hometown of Concubine Xiao is like now.
After Yu'er sent Princess Ankang back to the house to sleep, she cleaned up the table.
There is still a lot of stewed spinal cord that Zhao Feng sent, which needs to be kept in the kitchen.
Now that there is no shortage of supplies in Jingyang Palace, there is also a small "freezer" in the kitchen.
It is really a freezer in the physical sense. A small cabinet is filled with neat ice cubes to maintain a low temperature environment.
Every day, there will be a special person to replenish them with new ice cubes to ensure the low temperature of the freezer.
Putting the eaten food in the freezer can keep it fresh for several days, so there will be no waste.
But in fact, the three little ones don't usually use this freezer.
Because on weekdays, the leftover food they eat will be taken away by the eunuchs who deliver the meals, which saves Yu'er a lot of work.
Only on special occasions, when they don't eat at mealtime, will the food be received in the kitchen at Yu'er's signal.
For example, today, Princess Ankang had no appetite and missed breakfast and lunch, so the food was stored in the kitchen.
But if you don't eat today, someone will take it away tomorrow.
In short, the quality of life in Jingyang Palace is no longer what it used to be. Even Yu'er, as a palace maid, enjoys superior treatment. She is no longer on the same level as the little palace maid who had to get up early every day to help others to earn money.
"Ah Xuan, are you in the mood to watch a show after eating and drinking?"
Yu'er cleaned the table, and Li Xuan lay on the table to bask in the sun.
Yu'er was used to it. When she cleaned the table, she pushed Li Xuan, wiped the table under him, and put it back for him after wiping it. She didn't mean to be impatient at all.
Hearing that there was a show to watch, Li Xuan immediately cheered up.
He returned the things he borrowed yesterday to Wei Chengji's room.
It was obvious that Zhao Feng had bad intentions.
I don't know what hatred he and Wei Chengji had when they were young, but he just grabbed one person and pulled him hard.
To be honest, Wei Chengji is not an ordinary sheep. He has been pulled so many times but still stands firm. He is really something.
Anyway, staying here is also a way to digest food. Li Xuan might as well go with Zhao Feng to see what kind of show he is going to put on.
"Meow!"
Li Xuan agreed, got up and left with Zhao Feng.
After leaving Jingyang Palace, Li Xuan was held in Zhao Feng's arms and came to Yanqu Hall.
At first, Li Xuan wanted to stand on Zhao Feng's head, which was so cool.
Unfortunately, Zhao Feng disagreed and pulled Li Xuan down.
Zhao Feng let go of Li Xuan when they came to Yanqu Hall.
"Ah Xuan, find a comfortable place to watch the show."
"By the way, Wei Chengji's whip method is unique. Let's see how much you can learn today."
Zhao Feng said so, and left with the flowery eunuch accompanying him.
Li Xuan jumped onto the courtyard wall, a little unsure of Zhao Feng's intention.
"Are we going to take action?"
Li Xuan clearly remembered that Shang Zongguan had told him that it would be more beneficial for him if Wei Chengji was alive.
Zhao Feng had agreed to it at the time, could it be that he regretted it later?
"Will this old guy not act on his own?"
Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Zhao Feng had always been obedient to his godfather.
And Shang Zongguan was also very helpful, and basically gave the most reasonable suggestions.
Li Xuan had never seen Zhao Feng not accept Shang Zongguan's suggestions, or disobey orders.
"Will it be real?"
Li Xuan was skeptical and hurried to find a good place to watch the show in Yanqu Hall.
He found that Zhao Feng did not enter Yanqu Hall directly, but strolled around nearby, waiting for something.
Li Xuan didn't care about Zhao Feng and went straight to find today's protagonist, Wei Chengji.
He looked around Yanqu Hall and found that Yanqu Hall was surprisingly lively today.
Wei Chengji was leading three eunuchs in special flowery clothes to visit the Yanqu Hall.
The flowery clothes on these three eunuchs were similar to Wei Chengji's, and they all tended to be a specific color.
Wei Chengji's flowery clothes tended to be light yellow, and the other three also had their own merits.
These three people were: Gao Wang in rouge flowery clothes, Guo Sheng in indigo flowery clothes, and Duan Gui in stone green flowery clothes.
They were also powerful eunuchs in the palace.
They seemed younger than Zhao Feng and Wei Chengji, so they were probably not of the same generation.
But these three people also held important power in the palace. Although they could not compete with Zhao Feng's Ministry of Internal Affairs alone, they were a force that could not be ignored when they joined hands.
Even Zhao Feng was overwhelmed by their opportunity before, and he had not yet completely drawn a line with them and had a conclusion today.
Wei Chengji took them around the Yanqu Hall in a pretentious manner, and then took the three people to his room.
Obviously, they went to find a place where it was convenient to talk.
Li Xuan watched the four eunuchs gathered together from a distance on the courtyard wall.
"Zhao Feng is having a big time."
Li Xuan was about to laugh.
Not surprisingly, these three eunuchs were the three who had been visited by Li Xuan before.
"Three of you, please."
Wei Chengji opened the door and invited the three people.
"Haha, then I'm sorry to bother you."
The three eunuchs walked into Wei Chengji's room with a smile, looking friendly.
Then Wei Chengji winked at his eunuchs, signaling them to keep an eye on the door and not allow anyone to approach.
The eunuchs immediately guarded the doors and windows and did not allow anyone to approach.
As for the three eunuchs, they all stayed outside the Yanqu Hall to wait, which was also a kind of trust and respect.
"At this level, you can't stop me."
Li Xuan found an angle that no one could see, and jumped onto the roof with a light jump.
Then he hung himself upside down from the roof with his tail, and saw the scene inside through the gap of a door and window.
"Hey, I hid the objects so well, can they find them?"
"Or did Zhao Feng prepare it in advance?"
Li Xuan suddenly thought of this question.
He hid the borrowed objects very deeply beforehand, after all, he couldn't let Wei Chengji find them in advance, otherwise he would fail.
But in this case, how could they "accidentally" find those things?
Li Xuan watched the situation and saw what good show Zhao Feng had prepared.
"I wonder what the purpose of Eunuch Wei inviting the three of us here today?"
Gao Wang, who had just sat down and was wearing a rouge-colored flowered dress, asked.
He was very short, like a child, and couldn't even fill a chair. His fair skin made him look very young, and there were not many wrinkles on his face, but the gloom in his eyes revealed his actual age.
Li Xuan didn't expect that there was such a strange person among the eunuchs.
"How dare you ask me?"
"How long has Zhao Bugao been around me? If you don't find a way to solve it, I won't be able to cooperate with you in the future."
Wei Chengji spread his hands and said indifferently.
Today, he wanted to make things clear with these three people. Either help him quickly solve the problem of Zhao Bugao who was planted around him, so that he could breathe a sigh of relief.
Or make it clear that he was busy recently and could not help.
This would also excuse his inaction in the future.
If there was a choice, Wei Chengji naturally didn't want to be Zhao Feng's undercover.
But he could only pinch his nose and admit it when someone was holding his pigtail.
But there are also some rules for being an undercover.
It's best to have no merits and no faults.
In this way, no matter which side he goes to in the future, Wei Chengji will have room for maneuver.
It's not a bad thing to have a choice between two sides.
But in terms of his personal feelings, he absolutely doesn't want to be tied to Zhao Feng.
Since he was young, Wei Chengji didn't know how many times he had been fooled by Zhao Feng.
Many times, Wei Chengji worked hard, but Zhao Feng took away the fruits of victory.
With such personal grudges, how could Wei Chengji be willing to be an undercover agent for Zhao Feng.
"Eunuch Wei——"
Guo Sheng, who was wearing an indigo flowery dress, said with a long tail tone and a soft tone.
But he himself was tall and thin with a handsome appearance.
Although he was old, it can be seen that he should have had a good appearance when he was young.
"In this matter, we old friends naturally want to help you."
"Just..."
"Just what?"
Wei Chengji asked impatiently.
Guo Sheng loved to keep people in suspense and always spoke halfway.
"But for this opportunity, we still need you, Eunuch Wei, to help us create more."
"Zhao Bugao is Zhao Feng's adopted son, and now he is working under you. Isn't it possible to find this opportunity as you wish?"
"Please make arrangements. If we work harder, we will definitely be able to cut off one of his arms."
Guo Sheng spoke softly, but he was more ruthless than anyone else.
He said this, and his palm moved downwards, planning how to get rid of Zhao Bugao.
After hearing this, Wei Chengji fell into deep thought and hesitated to answer.
All the people present were old foxes, and no one understood each other's thoughts.
Although they all wanted to get rid of Zhao Feng, no one wanted to be the one in the spotlight, and they all just wanted to help in secret.
After all, if Zhao Feng was angered, being targeted would be a consequence that no one wanted to accept.
These eunuchs said it nicely, that is, to help each other.
But when something really happened, not stepping forward to step on it was considered a sign of loyalty.
They had seen how Wei Chengji was targeted by Zhao Feng before, and naturally did not want to have such an experience themselves.
So they went with the flow and let Wei Chengji be the first to come forward.
They believed that Wei Chengji was not made of mud.
How could they swallow this anger after being bullied by Zhao Feng?
And unlike others, Wei Chengji's retreat is not as wide as theirs.
Now after several confrontations, although there are wins and losses.
But in general, they are responsible for "wins" and Wei Chengji is responsible for "losses".
Zhao Feng is responsible for "wins and losses" alone.
The three of them had expected that Wei Chengji would not be able to hold on and would ask them for help.
Therefore, they all put on airs today and prepared to fight for the best conditions.
Since Wei Chengji has been targeted, it is better to let him continue to be the leader.
One of Wei Chengji and Zhao Feng must die.
In this way, there is no need to worry about Wei Chengji not fighting hard.
Unfortunately, what they don't know is that Wei Chengji has already changed sides.
Wei Chengji, Gao Wang and Guo Sheng are arguing with each other, each fighting for their own interests.
Only Duan Gui, who is wearing a stone green flowered dress, is silent.
Duan Gui's body shape was also very distinctive. He was as fat as a ball. He squeezed on a chair and did not participate in the discussion. He just looked around and examined Wei Chengji's room with a serious expression.
