Eunuch's Declaration of Loyalty

Chapter 94 Qin Shu's Past Life Extra Story 2
He was assigned to an old eunuch, Eunuch Min.That Eunuch Min was the one who poured the pails for the emperor, but not everyone could do any job that could get in touch with the master, even if it was just pouring pails.Eunuch Min had been in the palace for decades, and he put on a three-point smile before speaking, looking very kind, but behind his back he was an old guy who liked to torture people.Because he has no life, he is consciously dirty and humble, and he wants to smile at his masters. After being depressed for a long time, his heart becomes distorted, and he can only get some satisfaction by bullying people who are lower than him.

Eunuch Min has already tortured two young eunuchs to death, the slaves in the palace, the farther they are from their master, the lower their lives will be.For someone like Qin Shu who can't even see his master's face, several people die every day in this huge palace, and who will investigate whether those people died of illness or were tortured to death.There are also people who specially bribe the people who buy the eunuchs, and let them bring in those who are resistant to beating and bullying, and assign them to their own subordinates to vent their anger.

The old eunuch, who had been in the palace for almost his whole life, used endless methods of torture, which were much more terrifying than just beating and scolding. Even if there were scars on people's bodies, they couldn't be seen under the cover of clothes.And many times, he prefers to insult people rather than hurt himself.

Qin Shu has to do a lot of things, including washing the old eunuch's feet, pouring the bath water, pouring the pail, etc. This psychologically twisted old eunuch often steps on Qin Shu's body to wipe it clean after washing his feet, which is because he is in a good mood Sometimes, when he was in a bad mood, he would directly step on Qin Shu's face, causing his face to be covered with footwashing water. Qin Shu couldn't hide, and if he did, he would be beaten like crazy.

The old eunuch didn't know what was going on, and he often went crazy suddenly when he was doing well. Once Qin Shu helped him pour the Gong bucket, but he was kicked down and pissed all over his body.The old eunuch laughed loudly, and instead of letting Qin Shu change it, he asked him to kneel on the ground and wipe the floor with his sleeves in his urine-soaked clothes.

Qin Shu's expression remained unchanged, it was heavy and cold.If he had hoped, then this hope had been destroyed long ago when he realized what kind of filthy place this palace was.If he was still unwilling, then there is nothing left of this unwillingness, which has been worn away in the day after day of torture and insult.From childhood to adulthood, what can support him seems to be nothing but hatred.

These people who bullied him are not dead yet, how could he die first.

A year later, Qin Shu finally used his meager savings to find a way to buy some medicine from a servant in the Tai Hospital, which was said to make him crazy if he took it for a long time.The slaves like poison can't get it, but this crazy drug, taking a small amount once in a while can only calm people's mind, and there are many slaves in the palace who will buy it secretly, so this kind of business is tacitly approved.

The old eunuch was wary of everyone and would not let Qin Shu touch the things he had entered easily.Qin Shu was not in a hurry, he just watched coldly, waiting for that opportunity.He can take this medicine once and then take it a second time. Once or twice can't make him crazy. For many years, he will always wait until the day when the old eunuch goes crazy.

This wait lasted for another two years. Qin Shu had been looking for every opportunity to prescribe medicine to the old eunuch, but he didn't dare to take more, and finally made him unconscious little by little.

That day was the day when the successor empress entered the palace. Qin Shu also heard that the new empress who was about to enter the palace was a young lady from the Liu family of Lord Zhen Guo. Grass-like minions are not alike.Qin Shu didn't pay much attention to the queen who was too far away from him, he just thought that he could finally kill the old eunuch.

Most of the slaves were busy with the new queen's entry into the palace, or were excited about it. Only Qin Shu calmly put down the medicine he bought last time with the soup and sent it to Eunuch Min.Eunuch Min has been a little delirious most of the time, and since the emperor fell ill, he stopped pouring the buckets, and the palace had a new funeral for the former empress, the emperor was seriously ill, and the new empress entered the palace. People noticed that the old eunuch had been bedridden for many days, and now was the most appropriate time.

Qin Shu has always been very cautious, but after all, he has never been able to compare with this old eunuch who has watched the court strife all his life. When he grabbed Eunuch Min's neck, the old eunuch suddenly got angry, opened his eyes suddenly and picked up a piece of paper beside him. The bottle hit Qin Shu's head, and the fragments immediately cut bloodstains on Qin Shu's forehead.

The old eunuch stood up unsteadily from the bed, holding the fragment of the vase, and said with a ferocious smile: "I've been in the palace all my life, but at the end of my life, I was tricked by your little bastard. I only hate that I understand too late. If you die, you have to die with me too!"

Qin Shu took a few steps back, raised his hand to wipe the blood that was about to flow into his eyes.He looked at Eunuch Min who was crazy holding up the vase fragments, and thought calmly, the new queen entered the palace today, and there are guards patrolling everywhere, as long as he is led outside, there will be no good end for his crazy appearance. People saw his crazy appearance, and no one would investigate how a useless lunatic died in the future.So Qin Shu turned around and ran out, and Eunuch Min followed up with a little pretense.

There was no one outside, and the lively music could be heard from a palace in front, making it seem very quiet here.Qin Shu ran all the way to wipe off the blood that kept flowing down, and kept paying attention to the situation of Eunuch Min behind him.

His health was not good, and he fainted after bleeding so much.Qin Shu has been abused all the year round, his face is pale, and his lips are bloodless. The blood on his forehead looks particularly shocking on that face. It looked like tears of blood were shed.

He pinched the bruise on his arm hard to keep himself awake.Then, when I turned around a palace, I saw a group of people approaching.He didn't see who they were, he staggered forward and knelt down by the wall.With this posture, he glanced back, and the crazy Eunuch Min was about to run over.

"What's going on over there, go and have a look."

Qin Shu heard a woman's crisp voice in a trance, and then a series of chaotic footsteps passed by him. Looking again, that Eunuch Min had been caught and pressed to the ground, but the properties of the mad drug had come up. He was still struggling, with a ferocious expression like a mad dog.

"I just encountered this kind of thing when I first entered the palace, really..." The woman seemed a little unhappy, but in the end she just waved her hand and said, "Today is my big day, so let's teach this old lunatic a lesson. "

Qin Shu nestled by the wall, watching Eunuch Min being dragged aside, pressed and beaten, with his mouth covered and unable to make a sound, he felt a strange peace in his heart.

"Little guy, are you okay?" When Liu Qingtang first entered the palace, she still carried the sense of justice of the Liu family. The Liu family had never had such a bullying thing, and she had never seen it before. He approached Qin Shu, who was nestled against the wall and didn't move at all.

And Qin Shu, finally got some strength, knelt there and bowed to her tremblingly without raising his head, and shouted: "The empress is auspicious, if you bump into the empress Fengjia, the servant deserves to die." At this time If he can't guess that this is the new empress, his three years of life in the palace will be in vain.

"You've lost so much blood, are you okay, or I'll call you a doctor to take a look?"

While talking, the man took a handkerchief and pressed it on his forehead.Qin Shu couldn't help shrinking back in shock. He knew that the rich man in front of him was his master, but why would the master care about the life and death of these slaves, and how would he be willing to touch such filthy and worthless people like them.

Qin Shu lowered his eyes and saw her red skirt embroidered with phoenixes, the wide sleeves hanging down on his forehead, and the rings pressing the skirt, but he didn't dare to look up at her face.

She lightly tapped the jade ring in her hand, making a series of pleasant sounds.There was an unknown faint fragrance from the veil covering his forehead, and Qin Shu suddenly felt as if he had been bewitched by something, and stood there without even being able to speak.In fact, it was only a short moment, but in Qin Shu's dull mind, all this seemed to be slowed down.

"Your Majesty, you still have something to do. Look at this?" Among the group of people following Liu Qingtang, someone stood up and reminded him respectfully, without even looking at Qin Shu who was crouching by the wall with blood on his face.Originally, such a little servant, who cares whether he lives or dies, only this empress who just entered the palace, after all, is young, so she is easy to soften her heart.

Liu Qingtang frowned, hearing the meaning of this man's words.He glanced at the thin eunuch who couldn't see his face clearly, and took back the blood-stained handkerchief.The palace is different from the place she used to live in, and she still has a lot to learn, if she really calls an imperial doctor to this mere eunuch, I'm afraid it will not be a good thing for him.

"Yuping, take him to the Imperial Hospital to bandage his wound." He casually ordered a little maid to take someone to bandage him. Liu Qingtang glanced at the old nanny who had spoken before, and saw that she lowered her head and didn't say anything else. Don't care about this anymore, and leave here with a group of people.

Qin Shu, who had kept his head down and made no sound, supported the wall and stood up. He glanced at the figure in the red dress from a distance, and quickly looked away. .

"You're lucky." Yuping seemed to just sigh casually, and didn't want to talk to the little eunuch. She just did what her master told her to do, and took Qin Shu to the imperial hospital.

At that time, Qin Shu didn't say anything when he heard this sentence, because he felt that he had never had good luck.But later, many years later, he suddenly remembered this, and felt that it was indeed the case. Meeting that person on that day was the luckiest thing in his life.

After treating the wound, Qin Shu walked back from the Tai Hospital alone.Eunuch Min was not dead after being beaten several times, but he was not far from death, lying on the ground with only one breath left.Qin Shu walked up to him, looked at him for a long time, and smiled stiffly, "Fortunately, you are not dead."

After finishing speaking, Qin Shu dragged him to the room where he ran out. Qin Shu walked very slowly all the way, and he didn't have much strength.Eunuch Min's lower body was beaten until he couldn't move, and was dragged by Qin Shu and rubbed against the ground, making a rustling sound.

Qin Shu dragged Eunuch Min to the place where he usually used to express respect, grabbed his neck and pulled his upper body up, and when Eunuch Min made a loud noise and wanted to struggle, he pushed his head into it. into the bucket.

Qin Shu's hand was steady, and his expression didn't change at all, as if he... wasn't killing someone.

Eunuch Min's movements gradually became smaller, and finally he stopped moving.The knuckles of Qin Shu's hands turned white, and he did not let go of his head. After waiting for a long time, he only let go after confirming that Eunuch Min was indeed dead.As if he had demonstrated it hundreds of times in his mind, Qin Shu calmly dragged the body out, cleaned up all the traces, and finally called someone to take the body away.

A crazy old eunuch died, what's the matter in the palace, like these, no one died, the straw mat was thrown on any barren hill, and the corpse was cheaper than those crows and maggots.

Later, Qin Shu knocked on the box where Eunuch Min kept his savings, and used the money to manage the entrustment to go to the imperial dining room to be a little eunuch passing on meals.In the imperial dining room, the little eunuch also had to do a lot of things, but Qin Shu felt satisfied without the supervision of the eunuch who intentionally bullied others.He is very dutiful, he never steals and plays tricks, and he doesn't like to gossip, but he is not willing to deal with other people, and he seems to have a natural wariness towards everyone.

Qin Shu overheard some young eunuchs who were also in the imperial dining room talking about him, saying that his expression was gloomy, and he must be thinking about plotting people all day long, which is not a good thing.He was standing on the other side of the wall. Hearing this, he couldn't help but raised his hand and touched his face, with a gloomy expression?He just didn't feel happy about it, so he couldn't pretend to be smiling.Thinking about it carefully, he hadn't shown a sincere smile for many years, and Qin Shu couldn't help wondering if he could still smile now.

He put down his hand and walked away in silence.

Even if there was a hint of being excluded in the imperial dining room, Qin Shu never cared, as if no matter who said anything about him, he couldn't hear him.He is like a gray shadow, wandering in the overlapping palaces.

When those people in the imperial dining room talked about him many years later, what impressed them most was Qin Shu alone, with downcast eyes and a dull face, walking along the long palace wall with a food box.The thin and straight back makes people feel a bit lonely when they look at it.

Qin Shu was only 13 years old at the time, and he had just begun to look like a teenager. After years of training, he had grown into a teenager, but he was already old before he had time to grow up.Settled in a corner of the palace, doing his duty every day, he speaks little and has no relatives or reason.

Why do people live?Probably only when one has truly experienced what it is like to be alive, and when life comes to an end, can one come to this answer.
