Chapter 227
On the other side, Sheng Wanyu and Su Changmo also opened their eyes early with reversed thoughts, but there was still a feeling of a slight estrangement between the two in their eyes.

"My lady, are you still angry about what happened yesterday?" Su Changmo felt that Sheng Wanyu was still a little bit angry, so he looked at Sheng Wanyu who opened his eyes and asked.

Sheng Wanyu's thoughts were still the same, so she just replied flatly: "Do you think I shouldn't continue to be angry?"

Su Changmo could only smile and said to Sheng Wanyu: "For me, for the sake of the child, the madam should calm down."

It seemed that Sheng Wanyu couldn't resist Su Changmo's tenderness, and she was only angry on purpose. From last night to now, Su Changmo's words had completely wiped out Sheng Wanyu's anger.

However, Sheng Wanyu felt that Su Changmo knew this, but she still felt that perhaps he should be made to think that she was still angry, so that she would tell herself everything in the future.

Sheng Wanyu still replied intentionally indifferently: "The time is a bit short."

These words made Su Changmo feel that Sheng Wanyu's anger would take a long time to dissipate.

Su Changmo smiled, did not continue, helped Sheng Wanyu get off the bed, and finally sat down at the table safely.

After breakfast, Sheng Wanyu was sitting, and Su Changmo said to the guards, "Bring me the chief eunuch."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The guards went down and brought up the chief eunuch who had been severely beaten.

The chief eunuch hasn't come back since he was taken away yesterday. In order to let him know who is in charge of the palace, the chief eunuch has been punished a lot.

With whip marks and scratches all over his body, the chief eunuch, who was rarely beaten, knelt down and begged for mercy: "I beg your majesty, empress, forgive me!"

"Do you still dare to play your tricks in front of me and the queen?"

Su Changmo's voice at this moment, to the kneeling chief eunuch, made him panic as if it could take his life away at any time.

"I don't dare, I won't dare again." The chief eunuch said that he was terrified.

"Then do you want to tell the truth now?" Su Changmo asked the chief eunuch again.

"The slave must be true and sincere." The head eunuch replied anxiously.

Sheng Wanyu looked at the chief eunuch without a trace of affection. Apart from disgust, it seemed that other emotions were impossible to give.

"Yesterday, why did you come to the empress?" Su Changmo asked the chief eunuch, and he always got the same answer.

"The slave came here to intercede for Lan Kong. She cried and told the slave that she had offended the empress, so the slave came to intercede for her."

The chief eunuch really needs to be punished, otherwise I am afraid that asking the same question yesterday would not be so true.This remark fits well with what Lan Kong said.

"What's your relationship with Lan Kong?" Sheng Wanyu asked the chief eunuch.

The chief eunuch had no choice but to reply: "The slave has some friendship with Lan Kong, so he will help."

This point is also somewhat in line with what Lan Kong said, but Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu don't think the specific friendship is the point, so it doesn't seem to matter whether they know it or not.

"Why didn't you speak yesterday?" Sheng Wanyu continued to ask him.

"The slave didn't even have time to open his mouth before he was..." The head eunuch said tremblingly. Yesterday he was still thinking about how to get the following out, but he was dragged out by the guards.

Su Changmo and Sheng Wanyu still looked at each other, and then Su Changmo said: "You are so stupid, you pretend to be smart."

Su Changmo's voice still likes to mercilessly expose other people's self-made cleverness. This feeling may be a normal feeling for Su Changmo.But it often causes a kind of psychological pressure and fear of the other party.

"Yes, the slave thinks he's smart, but the slave is stupid. How can the slave's thoughts beat the emperor's and the empress's thoughts?"

The chief eunuch's speech was smooth, and what he said made people feel comfortable, but what he said and thought was not like that at all.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be overwhelmed with trying to use some flattering words to lead to the following.

"It's quite pleasant to say, why does it feel similar to yesterday's words?"

Sheng Wanyu felt that the chief eunuch's words sounded as good as yesterday, but they still had a purpose.

Hearing Sheng Wanyu's words, the chief eunuch kowtowed vigorously and said, "What I said is true. I ask the emperor and empress to forgive me. I don't dare to pretend to be smart anymore."

Su Changmo looked at the chief eunuch, and asked the reason for calling him: "How much do you know about Lan Kong?"

The chief eunuch replied: "Although Lan Kong has been in the palace for many years, the slave doesn't know much about Lan Kong."

Sheng Wanyu looked into the eyes of the chief eunuch, as if what he said was not false.However, this is not very reasonable. As the eunuch in charge of the palace, the chief eunuch has a higher status than the aunt in charge.

Therefore, he should know everything about the maid, at least not saying that he doesn't know much.

"Tell me everything you know." Sheng Wanyu's voice seemed to be so cold from yesterday to today, without many other feelings, and it seemed to make you feel that Sheng Wanyu had such a cold temperament.

And this language gives people a strong feeling of oppression, as if as long as you speak with a little doubt, you are likely to experience the pain of having nowhere to live.

The chief eunuch couldn't help trembling slightly, he had just experienced a severe torture.The scars on his body are still so clear, but he doesn't want to experience such pain again.

"Returning to the words of the emperor and the empress, I know that Lan Kong entered the palace when she was five or six years old, and she has been serving all the empresses in the palace since she entered the palace. Later, because the new emperor ascended the throne, she wanted to stay in the palace. Seeing him is considered an old man in the palace, so he was assigned to serve in front of the imperial court."

The head eunuch's reply was respectful with some trembling notes and ups and downs, feeling his fear and anxiety.

But what he said seemed relatively useless.Because, the maid's duty is to serve the master, as for where to go, it seems to be as simple as obeying orders.Therefore, words are useless.

"Do you think what you said is useful?"

Su Changmo's voice was even colder than Sheng Wanyu's. Even though there was no killing intent in his brows and eyes, his tone and the corners of his mouth always seemed to make people feel that the murderous intent was not an illusion.

When the chief eunuch heard Su Changmo's words, he felt that his words were probably useless again, and felt the pain coming from his body, and the chief eunuch panicked even more.

In the past, when the first emperor was still in the palace, the chief eunuch was also counted as a capable eunuch in the palace.He had never been subjected to such a severe punishment, but now he was tortured. The chief eunuch didn't know how to describe his fear of the new emperor Su Changmo and empress Sheng Wanyu.

"I know my mistake, I know my mistake, I hope the emperor and empress will give me another chance."

The chief eunuch seemed to be really afraid of the rotation of the criminal law, and he was not as public as he was when he came to Nianwan Palace yesterday.The feeling of bowing his head and begging for mercy seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with his previous actions, but it was too much panic.

"Then tell me, what else do you know?" Su Changmo said to the chief eunuch in a relatively casual voice, but his casualness made the chief eunuch feel that he should not be neglected.Just because he is a monarch and he is just a little eunuch.

"Back to the emperor and empress. After entering the palace, Lan Kong once offended the empress who was favored at that time, and was then assigned to another place to be a rough envoy. But half a year ago, Lan Kong was recalled by this empress again."

It seems that the whereabouts of Lan Kong is always uncertain in the words of the chief eunuch, and the favored concubine at that time is even more strange.At that time, I personally drove away Lan Kong and sent her to a sparsely populated place to sit and work like a coolie, so why did he call Lan Kong back later?

"Then when Lan Kong went to work elsewhere, did anything serious happen?"

Sheng Wanyu asked the chief eunuch, it seemed that if something happened, it would be a direction of thinking.

"Go back to Empress, when Lan Kong was transferred to a remote party, the slave didn't hear anyone report anything."

The chief eunuch's words seemed to cover up the road ahead from the beginning of thinking about the direction, and nothing happened, so why did that empress think so repeatedly.

After half a year, I will think of letting Lan Kong go back to serve.

"Then in the harem at that time, was there anything unusual about that empress?"

Su Changmo asked the chief eunuch, and thought that maybe there was something wrong with that empress.

"Back to the emperor, that empress offended the emperor because of a trivial incident during that time, and then the degree of favor plummeted."

What the chief eunuch said is not bad at all, it seems that there is still a reason for this contradiction.

"After Lan Kong returned to the original palace, has that empress ever been favored again?" Sheng Wanyu asked this point again.

If it is said that after Lan Kong came back, the empress who had been doted on all over again became favored again, that would solve the reason why Lan Kong was recalled to the palace.

However, Su Changmo also thought about whether the answer was the same as what he had guessed.

"Back to the emperor and the empress. After Lan Kong returned to the palace, he was still the same as before. He was not someone who served the empress close by. And the empress never won the favor of the emperor again."

The chief eunuch's words seemed to be a bottomless hole, and there were many roads outside the hole, as if they were many questions in his heart.

It seems that as long as you take the wrong one, everything will become more difficult.

"Lan Kong, so in that palace is a maid doing ordinary work?"

Sheng Wanyu asked the chief eunuch, what she thought was: "Lan Kong, have you never been close to serving the master?"

"Yes, no matter which palaces Lan Kong has been to, he has always done relatively heavy work outside, and has never been a personal maid."

The chief eunuch's affirmation seemed to make things strange. Lan Kong has served many empresses?
