Chapter 17
The environment in Xiao Xiangning’s harem is like this.
The older you are, the more qualified you are.
Although Chen Luo is only 28 years old this year, he has experienced three dynasties: Emperor Tianqi, Emperor Meiji, and Emperor Tianshu.
A perfect eunuch for three dynasties.
In addition, he is also a first-class master.
Therefore, no matter how indifferent he usually is, his status in the harem gradually increases over time.
In recent years, many new people have been added to the harem.
These newcomers also know that there is a general manager of the library in the harem, Eunuch Chen, a first-class eunuch.
I even heard the legend of how Eunuch Chen grew from a young eunuch with no talent for martial arts to a martial arts master step by step.
Therefore.
After these little eunuchs came in, they would basically run to the library to take a secret look at the legendary Eunuch Chen.
They are not afraid either.
Because this Eunuch Chen is much friendlier than the one in the legend.
Occasionally, when Eunuch Chen found him, he would just raise his head, smile, and continue reading his book.
Sometimes you can see him doing that very strange boxing technique.
Chen Luo was helpless.
He didn't understand what the problem was...
Why was he so low-key yet his reputation in the harem was getting bigger and bigger?
This goes against my original intention!
Zhao Chong told Chen Luo that it was because he was too friendly and uncontested that his reputation in the harem was so great.
As for the newcomers going to the library, it was because Chen Luo never stopped them, so they felt that Chen Luo didn't care, so they became more and more presumptuous.
"Your character can be said to be unique in the harem.
Everyone is competing and thinking about how to climb up.
But you are the only one who wants to give all the opportunities that fall to you Get rid of it, don't say anything else, just say that you are now a first-class master.
If you are willing, a eunuch in charge is indispensable, right?
As a result, now you are just a library manager, with no one around you who can give orders. There are none, which makes me feel a pity when I think about it!"
Zhao Chong has been doing well over the years.
He has become a general manager of the imperial kitchen.
And because of him, Chen Luo has inexplicably gained weight in the past few years.
The system also displays some reminders from time to time.
[You had a dinner that was not very healthy. Although it seemed rich, including fish, meat, wine, and chicken legs, it was not good!
Your health is affected!
PS: A reasonable and healthy diet is the secret to longevity, although it seems to be of no use to you...]
Of course,
Chen Luo never listens to this kind of advice.
"Everyone has their own pursuits. What you pursue is fame and wealth, and yellow and white things. But for me, these are not what I want, so it is not a pity if I don't get them." Chen Luo said with a smile
.
"Then what do you want?"
Zhao Chong asked.
Chen Luo didn't answer.
They would not understand what he asked for.
Zhao Chong didn't ask any more questions, but gave Chen Luo a suggestion. After returning, he put up a sign outside the Sutra Pavilion to prohibit unrelated people from approaching, so that those young eunuchs would not wander around.
Chen Luo thought for a moment, and it seemed to make sense.
Try it when you get back.
"By the way, why has there been no news from Wu Hai recently? Are you okay?"
"Fortunately, he has had some opportunities recently...I heard that he is going to be promoted to the deputy manager of the Jingsi Room. Although he is a deputy, it is a blessing in disguise. A little more."
Chen Luo nodded.
The assistant attendant is a sixth-grade eunuch.
It is really an opportunity to reach this point.
You must know that Wu Hai used to be just a young eunuch under Min Zhaoyi, but now he can reach this position step by step, which shows that it is not easy.
Chen Luo was still happy for him.
He left the imperial dining room and took a handful of melon seeds with him.
The wind is light and the clouds are light today.
The weather is calm and sunny.
If you have nothing to do, why not eat melon seeds and listen to music?
I heard that recently a group of dancers came to the palace, all with graceful figures and smooth skin.
Most of the time I'm in the Royal Garden.
Chen Luo felt the need to criticize them.
The entire harem is full of extravagance.
It's just that Chen Luo was disappointed.
The imperial garden was empty, and there was no dancing girl or anything.
Not even a palace maid or eunuch was seen.
Um?
I did see a little girl. He looks six or seven years old.
There are two balls in the head.
Wearing a blue palace suit.
Not to mention her appearance, she's really cute.
She was sitting by the lake, staring at the lake, looking like she wanted to catch a fish.
"I've never seen this little girl before. When did the harem have this little girl?"
Chen Luo thought.
Smacked his head.
He knew who it was.
The only daughter of Emperor Tianshu and the darling of the harem: Princess Xiang Ning.
Chen Luo met her once in the back garden two years ago. At that time, Emperor Tianshu was not yet the empress.
This child is being held by her side.
They haven't seen each other for only two years. How old is Princess Xiang Ning?
It's getting cuter and cuter.
If he punched her, she would cry for a long time, right?
Chen Luo thought about it, looked at it again, and was stunned for a moment.
Where are people?
Oh, I saw it...
in the lake!
Chen Luo finally realized that he was drowning!
He moved forward, flying across the lake, and caught Princess Xiang Ning. Then he returned to the shore,
placed Princess Xiang Ning on the ground, and pressed her belly a few times.
The lake water kept flowing out of her mouth, and when she took a breath, she couldn't help crying anymore.
This cry finally attracted the attention of the eunuchs and maids.
Even members of the patrolling martial arts bureau came over.
When I heard that Princess Xiang Ning fell into the lake and was rescued by Chen Luo, she was a member of the Shangwu Bureau, a eunuch, and a palace maid.
All of their faces turned pale.
There was despair in his eyes.
Chen Luo saw all this and sighed slightly in his heart.
Finally chose not to see them.
This is the harem.
He is just a little eunuch.
What can be done?
...
On the day Chen Luo returned to the Sutra Pavilion,
Feng Hansheng and Gu Benchun came in a panic and brought a message: "Princess Xiang Ning fell into the water. Your Majesty was furious. All the maids and eunuchs on duty in the Royal Garden that day were all Even the members of the patrolling martial arts bureau did not escape after being killed by the stick..."
Chen Luo didn't say anything after hearing this.
Just nodded.
I have been used to seeing life and death in the past few years.
The fluctuation in my heart was not as big as imagined.
It's just...
Chen Luo thought of the desperate looks in the eyes of the eunuchs and maids today.
he thinks.
If I begged for Princess Xiangning at that time, would there be a chance to save this group of people?
With this thought, Chen Luo shook it off.
Things were not as simple as he thought.
The moment Xiang Ning fell into the water, the fate of this group of eunuchs and maids was already doomed...
No one could change it,
at least not with his current ability.
"By the way, there is news that your majesty knows that you saved Princess Xiang Ning, manager, and he said that he will reward you!"
Gu Benchun said.
Chen Luo nodded.
Give me a reward...then give me a reward.
As an eunuch who can live forever, it is really difficult to find anything that can interest him.
What Chen Luo didn't expect was.
This time, the food was quite rich.
Even the little eunuch myself was moved!
