The eunuch named Xiaodouzi next to Hongli is about twelve or thirteen years old this year. It is said that the appearance is white and delicate, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as beautiful. At the age of eight, he entered the palace because of his family's poverty, and when he first entered the palace, he was often excluded and bullied because of his appearance.

For such a child who is trying to survive in the cracks, when all self-esteem and bottom lines are out of reach, as long as he can live comfortably, it has become his only goal and motivation. In order to protect himself, he must learn a variety of survival skills, including figuring out people's hearts and pandering to him. As he grew older, he learned how to use everything he had to get a better situation, and at the age of ten he was able to become a deacon in the Qianqing Palace, becoming a rough eunuch in the Qianqing Palace.

After all, the Qianqing Palace was the closest place to the emperor, even if he was just a rough little eunuch who did miscellaneous cleaning at that time, and lived a fearful life under the emperor's nose every day. But compared to the kind of life he had before, I don't know how much better. However, the good times did not last long, and not long after Emperor Kangxi died, Yinzhen succeeded him. With the arrival of the new emperor, the Qianqing Palace also attracted a new round of blood, and these servants and maids who served in the Qianqing Palace during the Kangxi period were waiting to be served in the palace where other queens or concubines were settled again.

Yinzhen didn't have many wives and concubines when he was in the palace, and those of us from the palace to the palace each brought their servants and maids who had been used for many years. Even if you want to choose some rough servants and maids, you should pay more attention to those who are a little older and look honest and do things properly, such as Xiaodouzi, who is not old and too beautiful, and looks weak and unruly, naturally he will not like it too much, and he will naturally have nowhere to go.

There has never been a shortage of snobbery in the deep palace, and it is common to hug when you are in power, and fall into the well when you lose power.

Being replaced from the Qianqing Palace was originally just an ordinary personnel transfer, but here it can be regarded as not being treated by the emperor. Whether it is the court or the harem, if you are not treated by the emperor and cannot find a more stable backer, then you can imagine what the situation can be. So Xiaodouzi, who didn't want to go back to the previous life, used the money saved in his hand to make the steward and eunuch enter the elder brother's office.

At first, Xiaodouzi was just a rough eunuch in the elder brother's office, but one day he was met by Hongli, and somehow he fell into Hongli's eyes and was transferred to Hongli's side to serve. Because the two are the same age, Hongli usually has no playmates of the same age, and this little bean is very good at figuring out Hongli's mind and trying his best to please him, and serving is also very proper, so the two are getting closer and closer, Hongli also attaches great importance to him, and usually thinks about leaving him with any delicious and fun things.

"And ...... And also...... There are still some things ......" Xu Fuduo began to hesitate as he spoke, and seeing my gloomy face, he hesitated for a long time before whispering: "The people around the fourth elder brother said that the fourth elder brother and this little bean are afraid that there is some unclear relationship, and this matter cannot be talked about, and the slave didn't dare to mention it because of this reason before." ”

"Bastard, can you hide such a big thing?" I didn't know whether to be shocked or angry when I heard this.

My shock stemmed from the shock of suddenly hearing that there was such an inside story, but my anger was not because of rejection of the incident, but because I didn't report Xu Fuduo's knowledge.

In fact, in his previous life, there were rumors in the market and unofficial information showed that this Qianlong Lord may have a habit of eating both men and women, especially later when he had an unclear relationship with the big corrupt official He Shen. What's more, I don't think that Broken Sleeve Longyang is, after all, there is no way to explain such a thing as feelings. If I had known about this earlier, maybe I wouldn't have interfered too much. However, now this matter is no longer a simple matter of emotional orientation, but a major event related to one's own interests, and even if this matter is known by Yinzhen, whether Hongli can become a candidate for the prince is a question worth considering.

For the sake of himself and Hongday, as well as for the Qian family and Hongli, Xiaodouzi is afraid that he will not be able to stay.

"How sure is this matter?Does Concubine Xi know?" I asked in a deep voice to let my somewhat oxygen-deprived brain think normally.

Xu Fuduo responded in fear: "The slave has secretly checked, and there are seven or eight points of certainty, Concubine Xi doesn't know, and the slave didn't dare to tell the master before, in fact, this kind of thing is in and out of the palace." When the slave first heard about it, he thought that it was just the fourth elder brother who had reached this age, so he was greedy for a while, and said that the fourth elder brother and the fifth elder brother were about to reach the age of opening the mansion and building teeth next year, and after a while, they would inevitably arrange people to teach these things to the elder brothers, and they could also arrange some sensible servants to serve them, and they would no longer be too concerned about Xiaodouzi at that time. Unexpectedly, the little bean has become more and more disagreeable recently, and he actually messed up right and wrong. ”

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, there are many things you didn't expect, and I'll go and get the punishment by myself. The amount of information was too large for me to deal with Xu Fuduo's mistakes for a while, and I thought carefully about what he just said.

Xiaodouzi, Qianqing Palace, Brother's Office, Hongli, Rumors, Stirring Up Right and Wrong...... These keywords kept running through my head.

Qianqing Palace...... It's the Qianqing Palace again, and it seems that many things have been related to the Qianqing Palace recently. What is the relationship between that person and Xiaodouzi? How does he know how I got along with the Qian family when I was in the Qiandi? And how did he know that Yinzhen had a good relationship with those people in the Eight Masters Party when he was young? And did Xiaodouzi enter the elder brother to approach Hongli with a purpose in the first place? If Xiaodouzi is just cannon fodder, then what is the real purpose of this person behind the scenes?

This series of connections makes all the spearheads point directly at the Qianqing Palace, which makes me even more sure that person must be hidden among the servants and maids of the Qianqing Palace, and use the humble identity of the servants and maids to hide themselves, so that people can not be traced.

"It seems that it's time to arrange someone to serve the two children, I will do it after discussing this matter with Concubine Xi, as for that little bean...... a cold glint flashed in my eyes.

"It's very simple to get rid of a person in the palace, and the slave will arrange it immediately, please rest assured. Xu Fuduo knew that he had done a few things that made me unhappy these days, and he was worried that he would settle accounts after the fall when I had my hands free, so he took the initiative to ask to do this kind of dirty work.

Listening to Xu Fuduo's words, my eyes darkened slightly, this is indeed what I thought - Xiaodouzi can't be kept, and it's only a disaster to stay. But when these words came out of Xu Fuduo's mouth and then came into his ears, somehow something in his heart was stabbed fiercely.

I subconsciously looked at my hands. In my previous life, I was a doctor, and my hands were used to heal and save people, and I never thought that I would use them to kill people one day, even if the operation would be stained with blood, but I had a clean conscience. However, in this life, these hands had to be used to kill, even if they had never been stained with blood themselves, but they were no longer clean, and those lives that died because of me even included my own child who had to be sacrificed before he was born. What would he do if he had been around at this time? He wouldn't wait until the current situation to tell me about it, he wouldn't let me bear a vicious name, he would nip all the hidden dangers in the bud, he would have dealt with people and things that might be bad for me at the beginning, he would let those people leave this world quietly, so that I would not feel guilty when I learned the news. However, he is no longer with me, and I have to carry everything on my own.

"When Ming Hongli goes to the study, bring Xiaodouzi over to show me. "I finally made an unexpected decision, not caring about softness, just peace of mind.
