Chapter 166: Discouragement

Zheng Chan regretted it at one end, but Li Decai was so bluffed at the other end that he was almost frightened. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he fainted, he did not escape the fate of being dragged out of the hall to beat the board, and what was even more tragic was that because of the rough hands and feet of the Yellow Gate in the Ciming Palace, he was awakened halfway.

There was a special person in the palace who was responsible for the punishment, and after the Yellow Gate dragged him over, he stood aside, waiting for the board to be finished, so that he could go back to give Empress Dowager Tian his life.

Li Decai's feet were unsteady, and he was paralyzed on the ground, and he looked at the two people waiting to be executed on the left and right, his whole body was in a cold sweat, and he was almost unable to move in panic.

His chest itched.

At this point, there is no way to hide, so we can only see if there is any way to bribe the executioner.

I still remember when I was young, I heard the old Huangmen in the palace talk about the story of making a mistake and being punished, saying that there were two people who convicted a powerful eunuch together and were punished for beating the board, one of them found an opportunity to give a pearl to the executioner, and the other had to go with the flow because he had no long things.

As a result, the same number of boards were taken down, and one was still alive after recovering from his injuries, while the other was beaten to a bloody pulp, and his bones were broken, and then he was lame and released from the palace.

What happens to a disabled eunuch outside the palace?

At that time, the old yellow gate used this example to teach them, telling them to be cautious and not to offend others easily. As a low-level eunuch, he only listened to it as an anecdote, and never thought about what it would mean to him.

To this day, lying on the ground, with two expressionless executioners standing opposite, he suddenly remembered this story.

Seeing the two people on the opposite side walking towards him, Li Decai suddenly had a thrill, thinking that he still had the benefits given by the Sheng lady when he came out of Taihe Building today.

I remember that it was a purse, light and clever, and I don't know what it contained.

At this moment, there was no other choice, Li Decai took advantage of the inattention of the prisoner, took the purse out of his sleeve, and when the executioner's hand came up, he immediately secretly stuffed the purse into the hand of one of them.

The other party's movements froze for a moment, but his expression did not change at all, as if nothing had happened, and he put Li Decai on the execution table with another person.

Li Decai's pants were dropped to his knees, and in order to prevent him from struggling, his hands and feet were buckled up by the iron rings on the torture platform.

The executioner raised the board and began to beat, while the other was counting.

It's not an illusion, the board was raised high and hit hard, with a huge momentum, but it really hit the body, but it didn't hurt as expected.

Li Decai's mouth was strangled by a strip of cloth, and he couldn't scream if he wanted to, so he could only let out a muffled snort.

The twenty boards were quickly finished, and the yellow gate of Ciming Palace dragged him back to recover his life.

Li Decai took advantage of the lack of attention and glanced at the executioner gratefully.

By the time he went to the gate of Ciming Palace and kowtowed to thank him, and returned to Funing Palace, the little emperor was already asleep.

Today he is on duty, without Zhao Xian's approval, as long as he has a breath, he can't leave Funing Palace.

He grinned in pain, but he could only lie on his side on the ground.

In a daze, there was something movement next to him, and when he opened his eyes, it turned out to be a little yellow door who used to love to tie himself up.

The other party smiled flatteringly and secretly stuffed a bottle of medicine.

Li Decai took it, uncorked the bottle, and a spicy smell came to his face.

The little yellow door made an oral gesture and compared two fingers.

Li Decai put the medicine in his arms, nodded, and signaled that he knew.

Xiao Huangmen smiled reluctantly, his disappointed look couldn't be concealed, and he retreated again.

Li Decai doesn't take it seriously.

There are many things in the palace that praise each other and frame each other, not the medicine he found in his own way, where would he dare to touch it. I'd rather miss this important time to take medicine and rub the medicine than joke with my own life.

He couldn't sleep because of the pain in his hips, so he barely squinted for a while, and after a long night, the sundial in the corner pointed to the red sign.

Li Decai endured the pain and got up, walked to the little emperor's bedside, and called softly in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, the time has come, and you will go to court today." ”

Zhao Xian narrowed his eyes, turned over and sat up.

The yellow gate waited for him to freshen up and change his clothes.

After sending the little emperor to the court, after the handover, Li Decai finally returned to his house.

His heart was cold.

Since he has beheaded his descendants and entered the palace, he already does not want his ancestors, his surname, or his face, and the eunuch has no way to retreat, so he can only rely on his master.

In the previous dynasty, the relatives were in charge, and many times they relied on the support of eunuchs to continue the country. Later, because the powerful people in the DPRK and China formed a faction, attacked the eunuchs and brought disaster to the country and the people, they made concerted efforts to suppress the eunuchs, but when the later relatives interfered in politics, there were no people to check and balance, but they really messed up the court.

It can be said that many times the royal family and the eunuchs are in a relationship of mutual support.

Compared with the courtiers in the court, the eunuchs in the palace are easier to figure out the thoughts of the superiors, and they are also closer to the royal family, and because they have no disciples and relatives, they are more fair and objective than the courtiers when they run errands.

Li Decai was transferred to Funing Palace, and he served the little emperor wholeheartedly. He doesn't know much literacy, he doesn't know what it means to be a monarch and a minister, and he doesn't know what it means to be loyal, but he does his best to do errands, thinking about earning a future.

Wang Wenyi is his role model.

I heard that a certain saint was seriously ill, Wang Wenyi took care of her sleeplessly, but the saint was cured, but Wang Wenyi developed a high fever.

When he was on duty, he couldn't leave, but the saint specially approved him to go back to rest, and rewarded him with medicine and vegetables.

What a creation this is!

If one day, he can get a reward from His Majesty, he would really like to go to the soup for him.

However, today he was beaten for the little emperor, and the other party did not have any appeasement, and seemed to have forgotten about it.

How can he calm down!

Could it be that these 20 boards are in vain?

Forget about the board, if you do anything important for the little emperor in the future, you won't even have a person to collect the body......

Li Decai's heart sank.

The next day he was still on an errand.

He gritted his teeth and stood behind the little emperor.

Zhao Xian fidgeted and flipped through the scroll in his hand, and suddenly called out: "Li Decai." ”

When Li Decai heard this, he raised his head in surprise and said yes.

However, it didn't touch his expectations at all, Zhao Xian said in a low voice: "I can't find a chance to leave the palace these days, you have to find a way to send a letter to Sheng Niangzi, and then urge the redemption." ”

He said yes, but his feet were so cold that he almost didn't have the strength to fight.
