Zhao Diao said: "Your Royal Highness, you also know this little blessing, he is Niangniang's personal eunuch, and he has followed Niangniang since he entered the palace since he was a child, and he is deeply loved." But last night Xiaofuzi broke a piece of porcelain, this object is Niangniang's favorite, the treasure of the heart, so Niangniang was angry and let people beat him, and let him roll far away, you see that there are injuries on this head, and there are also bruises and purple on the body. ”

Zhao Diao turned Liu Ji around and lifted his clothes to let Sima Shu see the injuries on his body, Sima Shu and Jiang Tong glanced at it, there were indeed scars on it, only to hear him say again: "After the beating, Xiaofuzi didn't dare to see Niangniang again, come to me to find a way to live, alas, this child is only over twenty, I have to find a way to live, so I went to Niangniang to intercede and beg him to spare Xiaofuzi." Niangniang had just lost her anger at that time, and under my persuasion, she promised not to punish Xiaofuzi again, but from then on he was no longer allowed to return to the Furong Palace. I thought that there was no shortage of manpower for the emperor, so I wanted to arrange him in the East Palace of His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness is kind-hearted, and I beg you to take in Xiaofuzi. ”

Sima Shu thought to himself what kind of medicine was sold in Jia Nanfeng's gourd, Xiao Fuzi was obviously her personal eunuch, could it be that he wanted to install eyeliner in me?

Sima Shu glanced at Jiang Tong, and Jiang Tong also thought that Jia Nanfeng did it on purpose, and shook his head at Sima Shu.

Sima Shu was just about to shirk, Liu Ji saw the clue, and knelt on the ground to kowtow to the prince and said: "Ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to take him in, as long as he can stay in the East Palace, even if I am asked to do anything, I am willing, no matter how dirty and tired I am, I am willing, the Furong Palace can't go back, if you don't take it in, the slave will only die, Your Highness ............" Liu Ji kept kowtowing, he knew that the prince was kind-hearted, so he begged him hard.

Seeing this, Sima Shu really felt pity, and said in his heart, whether Jia Nanfeng planted his eyeliner or not, seeing that the little Fuzi in front of him was really pitiful, let's take it first.

Sima Shu said: "Xiaofu, you get up, this palace will accept you for the time being." ”

Liu Ji happily kowtowed a few more times and got up and said: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your success, in the future, the minions will listen to your call, even if they go down the sword mountain and the sea of fire, the minions will not give up!" ”

Jiang Tong looked at Liu Ji's clever words, and thought to himself that it was not good for the prince to accept this kind of person.

Zhao Diao saw that the prince accepted Liu Ji and said, "Thank you, Your Highness, I still have something to do, so I will retire first." ”

Sima Shu said: "Please." ”

Before leaving, Zhao Diao said to Liu Ji: "Xiaofuzi, you have to do a good job, if His Royal Highness doesn't want you anymore, you won't have anywhere to go." ”

Liu Ji listened to the promise.

As soon as Zhao Diao left, Liu Ji praised Sima Shu's benevolence and righteousness, and scolded Jia Nanfeng for being ruthless and unrighteous, because he drove him out because he missed for a while, and lifted Sima Shu to the sky.

Sima Shu didn't like to listen to this kind of tone, so he stopped him and said, "Okay, Xiaofuzi, you and Jiang Xima go to the head of the East Palace and ask him to find you an errand." ”

When Liu Ji heard this, he said, "Your Highness, the slave wants to follow you and serve you." ”

Sima Shu said: "There are four eunuchs by my side, Xiao Chunzi is not far from me, there is no shortage of manpower around me, you can do something else first." He waved his hand.

Liu Ji saw that he had to follow Jiang Tong to find the manager, and when he saw the manager, Jiang Tong pulled the manager aside and asked him to arrange rough work for Liu Ji, which meant to try whether he was acting in a bitter trick, and the manager arranged for Liu Ji to pick up dung every day.

Why did Liu Ji come to the East Palace? That's how hard they want to play.

Liu Ji's strategy is like this: first play a bitter trick to enter the East Palace alone, slowly gain Sima Shu's trust, and become his personal eunuch. After the prince's marriage changed, he instigated him to have fun in time, behaved willfully, learned to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble, dragged down his fighting spirit, and became a piece of mud that could not support the wall, and then Jia Nanfeng would be able to abolish his position as the prince under the excuse that the prince was unbearable!

Jia Nanfeng first found an excuse to beat him in public, and then found his relatives and confidant Zhao Diao to let him cooperate with Liu Ji to act, and promised Zhao Diao that he would give him the title of general if he did this work, and let him go to work if there was an official vacancy in the field.

Zhao Diao used to be the commander of Chang'an County, because he was a relative of Jia Nanfeng, and was later called into the palace to be the eunuch of the Great Changqiu Administration. Zhao Diao was very happy to hear Jia Nanfeng's promise, thinking that he would be able to soar if he did a little thing, he led Liu Ji to the East Palace and asked Sima Shu to accept Liu Ji, and immediately asked Jia Nanfeng to find a reward after completing the task, Jia Nanfeng gave him a title, and planned to arrange him to Yizhou to do a history of assassination, Zhao Diao picked up a big bargain.

Jiang Tong told Zu Ti about his worries, and Zu Ti also felt that it must be the eyeliner of the Jia Nan Feng faction.

"I'm also so worried, so I asked the manager to arrange for him to pick up dung, see what this eunuch does, if he is eyeliner, he will definitely leave with a dirty stack, anyway, what tiring work is also his, see how long he can last." Jiang Tong Road.

Zu Ti said: "Brother Jiang is scheming. ”

Sima Shu said: "Okay, let's do this first, observe for a while, and then say, if it is really sent by the queen, no matter how careful he is, he will definitely show his feet." ”

Since Liu Ji entered the East Palace, he has been cautious everywhere, for fear of accidentally revealing his feet, he is a fake eunuch, and he must be careful everywhere, so that the prince's people can see all his intentions.

Liu Ji understood that it was difficult to gain the trust of the prince when he came to the East Palace, so he did whatever the chief manager arranged for him to do, and he did the dirty work on his shoulders without complaining.

In fact, all this was also expected by Liu Ji, so he had already made arrangements before he came. He told Jia Nanfeng that if he wanted to play a bitter trick, he would play it to the end, find someone to pretend to be an assassin and enter the East Palace to pretend to assassinate Sima Shu, and then he would protect the prince with his body and take a sword, so that he could completely gain the trust of the prince, and then accept himself as a personal eunuch, so that the plan could be implemented.

Jia Nanfeng very much agreed with his plan, and Liu Ji said that he went out to find a person from Guiyitang to pretend to be an assassin, and he knew someone who could be used.

Jia Nanfeng relieved Liu Ji to find someone to make an appointment, Liu Ji went to the mansion in the east of the city to tell Jin Zhanhong about the matter, and made an appointment, Jin Zhanhong told Liu Yao, Liu Yao arranged for Liu Yin to enter the East Palace to assassinate him on the agreed day.

After making all the arrangements, Liu Ji entered the East Palace, and they agreed to carry out the assassination half a month after entering the palace.

On this day, it was the appointed day, Liu Ji finished picking up the feces early, and did some sprinkling cleaning, the manager was very satisfied, and asked him to go around again, and clean up the unclean places, Liu Ji was very happy, and took a broom next to the study in the East Palace while pretending to sweep while waiting for Liu Yin.

The study was a place that Liu Ji and Liu Yin had agreed on a long time ago, because Jia Nanfeng knew the prince's habits and knew that he would read books in the study every day, so they decided to do it there.

In the blink of an eye, Liu Yin rushed into the northwest corner of the East Palace, it was a relatively remote place, he didn't know where the study was when he entered it, which made him anxious, so he had to look around.

But fortunately, when he came in, he changed into a eunuch costume, and as for his appearance, of course, Jin Zhanhong made another appearance for him, and he is now a eunuch.

Liu Yin walked forward for a while, came to a house, and saw a little eunuch holding a large bundle of books very hard, and muttered as he walked: "The chief manager is really eccentric, so many books let me send them to the study alone, alas, I am tired to death." ”

As soon as Liu Yin heard the study in the back, he immediately walked to his side and stopped him: "This brother, how can you carry such a heavy thing alone, I'll help you." ”
