She went to the East Palace to be a eunuch, and the prince became her subordinate.

Mo Yunzheng's words were stuck in his throat.

It seemed that he was indeed the one who mentioned taking Ye Xuwan there.

Seeing that Mo Yunzheng looked wrong, Ye Xuwan thought he regretted it.

"Your Highness, you promised me this."

Before Ye Xuwan finished speaking, Mo Yunzheng slapped the chopsticks in his hand on the table.

"I'm exhausted, I need to rest."

"..."

Ye Xuwan looked at the unfinished dishes in her bowl, nodded pitifully, and reluctantly put the food away.

I really don’t know what this man is angry about. Girls are said to be unstable, and men don’t seem to be very emotionally stable.

At the same time, the candlelight was also swaying in Concubine Lin's bedroom. Zique stood beside Concubine Lin and poured tea carefully, looking presentable.

"Thanks to you today."

Concubine Lin said leisurely: "I didn't expect you, a little eunuch, to be so smart."

Zique smiled, his tone full of respect.

"Your Majesty, your words are serious. This is all a slave's responsibility. By helping the master, the slaves can live a better life, right?"

Although this was a bit utilitarian, Concubine Lin couldn't agree with it in her heart, because she didn't think so.

Liu'er pinched Concubine Lin's shoulders behind her, and Concubine Lin waved her hand to signal Zique to come.

Zique took Liu'er's hand with a very skillful technique, and Concubine Lin relaxed a lot after a while.

"I haven't asked you yet how you entered the palace and how you came to be a eunuch here."

Zique chuckled, seeming to be reminiscing about something.

"Zique's family has been doing business for generations, but his father lost his business and the family wandered around. They entered the palace just to talk and eat."

"This slave must be lucky enough to be able to come to the imperial concubine's house."

Concubine Lin was laughed at Zique's words.

"The little mouth is quite sweet."

With that said, Concubine Lin took off a hairpin from her head, turned around and put it into Zique's hand.

This hairpin is the one Zique picked up before. It is made of polished gold and inlaid with various gems and pearls. It looks quite graceful and luxurious.

This is not much different from the two thousand taels that Mo Yunzheng gave him.

"This is what I reward you for."

Zique's eyes lit up when he looked at the hairpin in his palm.

"Your Majesty, this is too valuable, I cannot have it."

"It's not expensive, you deserve it."

After saying that, Concubine Lin smiled at Zique.

"To be honest, I haven't seen such a handsome eunuch like you for a long time. Looking at you, I feel very happy."

Zique listened and laughed secretly in his heart. He knelt down with tears in his eyes.

"Thank you, Imperial Concubine. Zique has been in the palace for a long time and has never met a master who treats Zique as well as the empress. Zique will serve you well!"

As he said that, Zique kowtowed twice.

Concubine Lin snorted lightly and motioned for him to get up.

"I have heard too many beautiful words. I think you are smart, so I keep you by my side."

"But you should have heard of my rules in the palace. There are never betrayers around me. Do you know why?"

Zique's hand holding the hairpin paused and shook his head slightly.

"I don't know."

"Of course you don't know."

Concubine Lin chuckled softly, with a hint of arrogance and ridicule in her tone: "That's because all the traitors around me have been cleared away. No one is left alive. Any trace left alive will be a disaster."

"Zique, if you betray me, you know what will happen."

Although Zique was already on guard, his legs could not help but tremble. If I had known, there was definitely a reason why Concubine Lin became the master of the harem. Her majesty was indeed not much different from that of Mo Yunzheng.

Zique nodded.

"I know that I will go through fire and water for the noble concubine, and I will do whatever it takes to repay the noble concubine for her kindness."

Concubine Lin seemed very satisfied with this answer and nodded.

"I'm hungry. Go to the imperial kitchen and help me get some food."

Today she went to the temple fair to pray for blessings and the food she ate was all vegetarian. Concubine Lin had been pampered since she was a child. How could she possibly be satisfied with this life of eating braised vegetables.

Zique nodded, stepped forward and walked towards the imperial dining room.

Miss Liu'er was already there, and it seemed that she had already received the order from Concubine Lin.

"Zique, you are here. The imperial concubine must have asked you to come."

Zique nodded: "Why is Miss Liu'er here? I can't take it by myself?"

Just as Zique was thinking about why the imperial concubine ate so much at night, Liu'er shook her head.

"No, we have to keep an eye on the imperial concubine's food from the selection of ingredients to the production process. You also know the imperial concubine's status in the harem. It can be said that one person is inferior to ten thousand people. How many people covet the imperial concubine's food? Location."

"It would be bad if someone poisoned the queen."

As he said that, Liu'er frowned, with a little fear.

"I didn't know who poisoned the tea that the imperial concubine had before. The imperial concubine had a rash all over her body, and the emperor didn't come for more than a month."

Zique listened and nodded.

He took a look at the dish in the pot. It was red date and pear soup.

"This looks like it'll be fine in no time."

"Ah."

Liu'er nodded.

"Zique, I see that the imperial concubine regards you very highly, and I thought you might be the one to keep an eye on me from now on. This red date and pear soup is the imperial concubine's favorite food. She basically has to drink a bowl of it every day before she can rest."

"This habit has always been there and has never stopped. You must never forget it."

With that said, Liu'er saw that the heat was almost done, poured out the pear soup and handed it to Zique's hand.

"Go and bring it to the imperial concubine."

Zique looked at the crystal clear pear soup in his hand and nodded.

"Yes."

Ye Xuwan felt that something was wrong recently. She couldn't sleep every day for the past two days, and her whole body was sore.

I feel groggy when I wake up every morning, and those who don't know it think she went to steal food at night.

And she wakes up very late every day. If Xiao Xizi hadn't called her, Ye Xuwan would have slept until midnight.

"Eunuch Xiao Yezi, you've been too lazy these past two days."

Xiao Xizi was mumbling while helping Ye Xuwan pack her things.

"This is because His Highness the Crown Prince feels sorry for you, otherwise you would have been punished by another master."

Ye Xuwan rubbed her head and looked outside the hall unconsciously.

Mo Yunzheng was seen standing at the door, with a handsome eunuch beside him. In an instant, Ye Xuwan's astigmatism eyes focused.

"This is?"

"Ouch. It's Zique."

Xiao Xizi helped Ye Xuwan sweep the floor as she spoke: "I just arrived and said that I had something to say to His Highness."

Ye Xuwan frowned, with a hint of doubt deep in her eyes.

Zique was sent to Concubine Lin, so he naturally had to be very cautious in everything he did.

But is it okay for Zique to come in such a bright light?

Thinking about it, Ye Xuwan walked out. Zique asked Ye Xuwan to come out and raised his eyebrows.

"Eunuch Little Ye Ye, are you awake?"
