Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 391 Confrontation
"Your Majesty, don't be angry, be careful not to damage your body." Mammy glanced at the kneeling leader of Kunsha, with a look of hatred for iron and steel, and turned her head to coax Yue Jing'an.

Yue Jingan looked at the kunsha leader who was kneeling down and bowed his head low, and sneered, "Say, why do you want to save the life of Xia Zijin's little hoof? Could it be that you also have a crush on him? How dare you violate the rules of the palace at will? Order?"

The leader of Kunsha quickly bowed his head, "I dare not, but the young master has a deep affection for Princess Mingzhu. If I kill her like this, if the young master finds out in the future, I am afraid that I will have a rift with you, the master, so the subordinates decide on their own." , thinking of saving her life for the time being, and wait until the matter is over..."

"Shut up! When will it be your turn to decide for Bengong?" Yue Jingan stared at Chief Kunsha angrily, "Or, you don't take Bengong's words seriously now Do you want to turn your allegiance to your future master?"

Seeing that she was in a fit of anger, and that she had indeed violated the order on her own initiative this time, Chief Kunsha could only sigh and bowed his head to admit his mistake, "This subordinate knows his mistake, please punish me."

Yue Jingan's chest couldn't stop heaving in anger. Seeing that he no longer defended, the depression in his heart was better, "So, you should step down first, and you don't have to take the position of the leader of Kunsha, I will make other arrangements."

The leader of Kunsha suddenly raised his head, moved his mouth, and finally took out the wooden badge symbolizing his status from his sleeve, handed it to Yue Jing'an's outstretched palm, and stepped back in response.Seeing him leave, Mammy couldn't help pleading, "Your Majesty, he is also thinking of you, Madam, isn't this punishment too heavy? What's more, among Kunsha, he has the most outstanding ability. If it were someone else , I’m afraid I won’t be able to convince the public.”

"Mommy, what I want is loyalty. If you are unfaithful, no matter how capable you are, you are not worthy of this position." Yue Jingan's eyes flickered, and the corners of her lips showed a little tiredness. She rubbed her fingers between her eyebrows and leaned on the chair. .

Mammy was dumb for a moment, pinching her shoulder wholeheartedly, and stopped talking.From the bottom of her heart, she also disapproved of Chief Kunsha's behavior. If he hadn't made up his mind, Xia Zijin would be a corpse now.Therefore, it is normal for Yue Jingan to be angry.

Naturally, Xia Shengqing didn't know about this. He only thought that Yue Jing'an was going to imprison Xia Zijin at the beginning, so that he could force him to obey her orders, but when he found out about it, he wanted to kill Xia Zijin in a fit of anger.

After Xia Zijin got well, she went into the palace to ask to see Emperor Ming. Xiao Xiazi knew that she was coming, so she hurriedly asked someone to invite her in.Not seeing him for a few days, Ming Shengdi's body became weaker and weaker. Fortunately, there was an imperial doctor hanging on his life, so there was no danger to his life for the time being.Xia Zijin paid her respects through the bead curtain, and could not help showing worry when she heard Ming Shengdi coughing from a distance.

Lying on the bed for a few days, Ming Shengdi could barely sit up, looked at the worry on her face, involuntarily flashed a touch of comfort in his cloudy eyes, and said a word to Xiao Xiazi, Xiao Xiazi hurriedly opened the pearl Curtain, please come in Xia Zijin.

Only then did Xia Zijin get up slowly, walked behind Ming Shengdi, sat on the small pad next to him, held the handkerchief, and asked worriedly, "Father, are you alright?"

"The past few days have been better, but you, it's not that you sent someone to find the medicinal materials. Why did you come back so soon?" Ming Shengdi just tried the prescription at the beginning. When Xiao Xiazi said that he went out of the city in person, he was really shocked Startled.What happened later, Xiao Xiazi also reported to him one by one.It's just such a sensitive period, he really has to guard against it.

It is not impossible for Xia Zijin to gain his trust through this.A trace of doubt flashed in Ming Shengdi's eyes, and then quickly faded away.Xia Zijin raised her head and just saw the expression on his face. The fingers holding the handkerchief unconsciously pinched into her palm, "I'm incompetent, and I haven't found the medicinal materials yet, but Chenyan has already gone out of the city to find them for my son. It will be found soon, and by then, Father, you will recover soon after taking the medicine."

Seeing that she never mentioned the fact that he was hijacked and almost lost his life when he went out to search for medicine, Ming Shengdi heaved a sigh of relief, his expression couldn't help showing some appreciation, and he asked her about her recent visits outside, and then let her go out .

Xia Zijin raised the bead curtain, looked at the imperial doctors who were confined outside, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, looked at the black eyes under their eyes, shook his head, and lifted his feet to go out.Although Ming Shengdi's move was a bit ruthless, it was also a helpless move. If not, who knows if these imperial doctors will talk nonsense when they go out.

If there is no way to heal Ming Shengdi, they will die, so they might as well stay here and treat Ming Shengdi wholeheartedly.

Yue Jing'an came over in a sedan chair, and just as she got off the shelf, she saw Xia Zijin coming out from the entrance of the hall, her palms clasped together were subconsciously clenched, and she deliberately stood in front of her, "Princess Mingzhu has seen it before." The emperor has come out?"

"Empress Jin'an." When Xia Zijin saw her, she couldn't help feeling chills in her heart. As a concubine in the harem, but she kept such a large number of killers, it would be fine if Yue Jing'an had a strong mother clan as support. She knew that Yue Jing'an didn't have the backing of her mother's family at all, so as a concubine, how could her Yue Li support such a large number of people.Not to mention, she has been worshiping Buddha in the Buddhist hall for the past few years.

In the palace, it is not easy for an unfavored concubine to protect herself.Thinking about it this way, Yue Jing'an's background really made her creepy. Xia Zijin asked Zhenwen to inquire about her background earlier, but except that she was the daughter of the Dong family, she couldn't find anything else, as if there was a hand abruptly. It's like erasing Yue Jing'an's past.

"I wonder if Princess Mingzhu can tell me how the emperor is?" Yue Jingan couldn't help but smile when she saw her pale complexion, wiped her fingers between her lips, approached her, and spoke with a smile.

Xia Zijin suddenly felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake, swallowed his saliva, took a step back, and reacted, bursts of embarrassment rushed into his heart, "If you want to know, you can go in and ask the father, the father has always I love you so much, I must be willing to let you in to serve me."

Yue Jing'an was caught in her chest by her choking breath, her complexion changed several times, and then she revealed a smile like a steel knife, "You are really eloquent, no wonder the coaxing emperor likes you so much."

"My lord." Xia Zijin thought that Xia Shengqing should be waiting at the gate of the palace right now, and immediately lost the desire to continue entangled with her, and blessed himself, "My husband is still waiting for the princess at the gate of the palace, the princess will go first step."

Yue Jing'an's face turned blue and purple in an instant, and she looked at her back with hatred until her figure disappeared from his sight, then she sneered and got on the sedan chair, not even Ming Shengdi stopped visiting, got up and drove back palace.Left and right she couldn't get in, not bad this time.

Xia Shengqing was waiting at the door, seeing Xia Zijin coming out late, she wanted to go into the palace to look for her, and then saw Xin'er helping her out, so she immediately went up to her, and covered the squirrel velvet embroidered silver silk cloak she brought with her. On her body, he cupped her palm to his mouth and let out a sigh, "It's windy today, you wear so little, be careful to catch the cold again."

Xin'er burst into laughter from the side, "Princess, you see, Lord Qiantose really loves you. You are wearing a lot more clothes than ordinary people. It is almost wrapped into rice dumplings. Lord Qiantose is still worried that you will catch a cold."

Xia Zijin turned her head, glanced at her, took her palm out of Xia Shengqing's hand, stretched out her slender fingers and tapped her forehead, "You're just talkative, don't tell me you have a crush on some young master? I'm envious, It’s just to make fun of the princess. Why don’t you talk to the princess, the princess will betroth you to him tomorrow, so that you can take care of yourself.”

Xin'er's face turned red instantly, and she quickly waved her hands, "Princess, I don't have any servants, I just tell the truth. I don't want you to marry."

Seeing how she couldn't help being teased, Xia Zijin couldn't help but chuckled and shook his head, with a smile on his lips.Only then did Xin'er realize that she was making fun of herself, her face was flushed hot, she lowered her head and dared not look at Xia Zijin.

Only then did Xia Zijin shake her head, and told her to help her into the carriage.After entering the carriage, the chill on his body completely dissipated.Xia Shengqing pulled out the letter from Huang Chenyan from his sleeve and handed it to her.Xia Zijin unfolded the rolled letter, and looked at it saying that he would assist Shen Li in seizing the position of the head of the family so that he could get the medicinal materials. Xia Zijin's eyes flashed, and just as he was about to speak, the carriage stopped.

She had no choice but to swallow the words in her mouth and think about it quickly.When they arrived at the mansion, Xia Zijin ordered Xin'er to bring a pen and paper, and wrote a letter to Huang Chenyan.

Xia Zijin had already seen Shen Li's family background clearly in the letter before. If it was true as Huang Chenyan said in the letter, it would be better for the Patriarch of the Shen family to abdicate earlier.Shen Yue will definitely thank her for her kindness in the future. At that time, if she raises her own conditions, the feasibility will be higher.

In view of these two points, Xia Zijin directly supported Huang Chenyan in the letter to help Shen Yue.

After receiving Xia Zijin's reply, Huang Chenyan felt relieved.She had lived in the Shen family for a few days, and even though the Patriarch of the Shen family tried his best to cover it up, she could still see the absurdity of his rotten bones.Such a person is actually able to assume the position of Patriarch, she really doesn't know whether it is the old blindness of the Shen family or the sorrow of the Shen family.

That night, Huang Chenyan went to Shen Li's room.Shen Yue had just dealt with the maidservants forced in by those clan elders, when she heard the knock on the door outside, she thought that the maidservant had come back again, and opened the door impatiently, just as she was about to taunt, she saw Huang Chenyan standing in front of her. At the door, the sleepiness in her heart disappeared instantly, she looked around, and hurriedly called her into the room, "It's so late, why are you here?"

"Could it be, you want to..." Before she could answer, Shen Yue narrowed his eyes and laughed.

Huang Chenyan slapped him on the head, "If you dare to think wildly, I will cut off your head. Didn't you say to steal the key to the warehouse earlier? Now you can do it."
