Chapter 126: Hungry Doom

After turning around many times, when Qin Fei was almost already dizzy, the guards who followed him finally spoke: "Governor Qin, when you arrive at the Inner Palace, it is inconvenient to enter the lowly position, and then the eunuch on duty will lead the way." ”

Qin Fei fixed his eyes and saw that the four brocade-clothed eunuchs at the gate of the inner palace were standing quietly, and the guards stepped forward to explain a few words, and the chief eunuch looked Qin Fei up and down a few times, and said in a sharp voice: "Governor Qin Zhen, you come in with me first." ”

When Qin Fei passed by those eunuchs, he always felt that there was something wrong with their eyes. Some of the eunuchs had fear in their eyes, while others had angry eyes...... The big eunuch who was leading the way in front couldn't help but flicker a little when he looked at Qin Fei's eyes, and he didn't dare to face it with fear.

After thinking about it, Qin Fei already understood that from the Great Wei to the Chu State, it has been passed down for thousands of years, and the most majestic person in the eunuch industry is Nian Gonggong. But the battle prisoner among the eunuchs was castrated by himself for the second time. This incident severely shocked the eunuchs of the inner palace who were usually a little domineering.

Because they have served nobles in the palace for a long time, some popular eunuchs can say a word in front of His Majesty or the Queen Mother, which is even more effective than the speech of the ministers of the court. Although there is a strict order in the imperial court that eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the court, they do not need to come openly, they only need to casually mention someone's name in front of His Majesty, which is already a great benefit. So, after a long period of habitual cultivation, these eunuchs with the highest grade of no more than four grades are very arrogant, and many third-grade officials from other provinces have to speak in a low voice to the eunuchs, for fear that if they are not careful, their future will be ruined.

Qin Fei is different, a person who even dares to castrate his father-in-law again, which eunuch thinks that his descendants have grown again? The chief eunuch led Qin Fei to a secluded corridor, and then spoke: "Governor Qin Zhen, Your Majesty said before that he wants to review the chapter, and it may be until midnight, and he ordered no one to disturb him. Our family only has one head, and we will never dare to report to Governor Qin at this moment. Please wait patiently here, if Your Majesty finishes reading the chapter, the eunuchs who are waiting inside will naturally ask Your Majesty if you still want to summon the Governor ......"

Qin Fei frowned, the shelf for being the emperor is really not ordinarily big, if you want to call someone to come, you can call someone to come, when you call it, the fan is blazing, but if the person really comes, I don't know how many hours I have to wait at the door, but I only ate a few bites of snacks, and now my stomach is vaguely hungry......

"Thank you, father-in-law!" Qin Fei saluted: "Then Qin Fei is waiting here." ”

The eunuch snorted, turned around and wanted to leave, but stopped again, and added: "Governor Qin, there are many forbidden places in the palace, and you must not walk around without permission, otherwise you will lose your head." Besides, many concubines and princesses in the inner palace live here, if the governor of Qin Zhen walks around, it disturbs the nobles, and His Majesty blames it, and no one can afford to carry the black cauldron. ”

"Got it, father-in-law go slowly!"

Time passed little by little, the crescent moon was in the sky, and the shadows of the trees were swaying. From time to time, there were eunuchs passing by, looking at Qin Fei standing on the corridor in surprise, and then walked by without looking back.

No one knew how long it had passed, and Qin Fei's stomach had already begun to growl. Looking up and down at the gorgeous cornices and blue tiles, Qin Fei's heart began to come alive...... Anyway, Your Majesty doesn't know when you want to approve it, and besides, it's hard to say if you want to see yourself after the review is over, and besides, Your Majesty wants to find someone, big and small eunuchs, three military lives, just a palace, tear your throat and shout a few times, are you afraid that you won't hear it?

Once he had found a good reason for himself, Qin Fei couldn't stand any longer, and took a big stride to find something to eat.

There were similar courtyard buildings everywhere, Qin Fei looked at this hall and that palace, and after thinking about it for a long time, he was still embarrassed to enter. What if the concubine or princess inside saw a man running in frantically to find something to eat, wouldn't she immediately exclaim, and then the big internal guards of the brigade came to dismantle themselves?

Finally catching a passing eunuch, Qin Fei asked sharply, "Father-in-law, do you know where to eat?" ”

"The Imperial Dining Room!" The little eunuch looked at Qin Fei in surprise: "From here to the north, walk two intersections, turn left, and there will be a courtyard, where is the imperial dining room." ”

It turned out that the imperial dining room was in front of him, Qin Fei moved his index finger, let go of the little eunuch, and walked towards the imperial dining room. When I walked to the courtyard, there was a plaque with three big words written on it: 'Imperial Dining Room'. There was a burst of incense inside, Qin Fei peeked into the courtyard, but felt that the eunuchs in the imperial dining room were all fatter than others, so he couldn't help but sigh secretly and walked in cheekily.

A eunuch with a food box walked out, saw Qin Fei head-on, and asked in surprise, "Are you an officer of the Prosecutor's Office?" Why did you come to the Imperial Dining Room? ”

Qin Fei saluted and said: "I am under the summons of Your Majesty, but Your Majesty wants to review the chapter until late at night, and when you are hungry, you will come to the imperial dining room to find something to cushion first, so as not to be dizzy from hunger, and when you see Your Majesty, you don't know how to deal with it." ”

The eunuch nodded and said with a smile: "Then you can be regarded as the right person." Although our family is not very old, thanks to the emperor's grace, we have rewarded the position of eunuch, the deputy head of the imperial dining room. Our family saw that you were young and talented, and you were wearing the uniform of the Governor of Tongzhi Town in the Prosecutor's Office, if you guessed correctly, it must be the recently famous Governor of Qin Fei. ”

Seeing Qin Fei agreeing with a smile, he put the food box in his hand on the ground, walked into the imperial dining room with Qin Fei, and ordered loudly: "Make a few side dishes for Qin Zhendu, and cook a pot of rice with the best white rice from Duanzhou." Everyone has to sell some strength, Qin Zhendu is now a prosperous time, today His Majesty summoned, if you please Your Majesty, after the future soars, you can still remember that we disabled people have a meal today, which is our creation. ”

Qin Fei saw that this eunuch spoke decently, secretly flattered others, and was not so explicit, which made people sound very comfortable, and he was extremely enthusiastic about people, no wonder he became the deputy chief eunuch at a young age. You must know that there are a total of eight chief eunuchs and sixteen deputy chief eunuchs in the palace. He was only in his twenties, and he was already among the top twenty-four among thousands of eunuchs, so how could he not be outstanding?

As soon as the eunuchs saw that it was the deputy chief eunuch who ordered it, and it was Qin Fei, who made the eunuchs frightened, they immediately picked up the guy and wanted to cook for Qin Fei.

The eunuch whispered to Qin Fei: "Our family insulted the ancestors, and the name of the year was not used, and the palace called our little first son, and if you can afford our family, you will call the first father-in-law." ”

"Father-in-law Chu, thank you very much!" Qin Fei smiled.

"It's good for Governor Qin to call Xiao Chuzi." The first father-in-law lifted the food box with a smile: "Our family can't accompany us more, this is the jade soup that the queen has to drink every night, and if you don't send it, it will be cold." If our family has the opportunity to leave the palace, we will still want to invite Governor Qin Zhen to have dinner at that time. ”

Qin Fei saw that he was very interested in making friends, and secretly thought that it was better to have more friends in the palace than many enemies, and immediately said: "Where did the first father-in-law come from, when the father-in-law leaves the palace, Qin Fei should make proper arrangements and set up a banquet for the father-in-law." ”

"Well said, well said!" The first father-in-law walked away.

Qin Fei was waiting for his dinner in the imperial dining room, those eunuchs didn't dare to fry a green vegetable tofu casually, they all had the color, flavor and flavor, and they didn't know Qin Fei's taste, local characteristics, sweet and sour...... In one go, he actually got two pots, four pots and eight plates for Qin Fei alone......

By the time the fragrant rice was brought to Qin Fei, more than half an hour had passed.

Watching Qin Fei gobble up, the eunuch who was waiting beside him asked softly, "Is Governor Qin still satisfied with eating?" ”

"Good...... Of course it'......" Qin Fei feasted and said vaguely.

"There is also a case soup with enough ingredients." The eunuch smiled: "Some materials are not something that can be eaten casually!" ”

How could Qin Fei not understand what he meant, some dishes were extremely difficult to find, so they couldn't be eaten by the emperor. Otherwise, the emperor is happy, and he has to eat two ends in three days, where can he find so many materials in the imperial dining room? provoked Long Yan to be furious, and one by one the eunuchs had to hang themselves...... For the emperor, you can only eat watermelon in summer and oranges in winter......

However, these rare materials are paid tribute in various places, although there are not many of them, but it is not a problem to make a meal occasionally in the imperial dining room. Today, he was caught up by Qin Fei, and he ate a meal that the emperor might not be able to eat.

The eunuch with the soup tiptoed over from Qin Fei's side and carefully placed the soup on the table. I don't know if he was too nervous, or if he wanted to embarrass the 'public enemy of the eunuch' Qin Fei, when the soup was placed on the table, it suddenly slipped and splashed all over the basin.

The distance is so close, Qin Fei is busy eating and drinking, not to mention that the other party is not coming up with a knife, so he doesn't have much defense at all, although he reacts very quickly and moves lightly, but his official uniform has been wet with soup.

The little eunuch was so frightened that he immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "Governor Qin Zhen spares his life......"

The old eunuch who was waiting next to him was furious, kicked him to the ground, and scolded sharply: "Are you blind? Qin Zhendu wants to face the saint, how can he face the king when his clothes are dirty? It is a serious crime to be untidy in front of the emperor, and it is a serious crime that is punishable by heavy punishment. ”

Seeing the pitiful appearance of the little eunuch, Qin Fei couldn't bear it, stretched out his hand to pull him up, and said softly: "It's okay, didn't Your Majesty say that the review will be at least until midnight?" There is still time, you can get a bucket of water, and I will wash the clothes and take them to the drying basket to dry. ”

"How can you let Qin Zhendu wash it by himself!" The eunuch said in a loud voice: "Go, find a clean dress and come out, and change it for Governor Qin." You are quick with your hands and feet, wash and dry your clothes, and delay the face of the Governor of Qin Town, even if the Governor of Qin Town has a large number, the first father-in-law will take your life when he comes back! ”

The little eunuch raised his eyes with tears in his eyes: "We only have eunuch clothes......
