The emperor saw that the fourth prince was holding a small golden sword in his hand, although it was a little larger than the one found in the goose's head, but the style was very similar.

It is not pure gold to say that it is a golden sword, but it is just a layer of gold dust on the outside.

"I took this from the second emperor brother, and he has many more." The fourth prince didn't care, and replied casually: "The second emperor brother has always liked these things. ”

The second prince was born with martial arts, in addition to real knives and guns, he usually likes to collect some small ornaments related to it. This is not only known to the four princes, but also to many people in the palace.

"Bo'er, you go outside and play." Xu Guifei saw that the emperor's expression was different, so she took the four princes out, and said diligently: "This is the soup they just made to relieve the heat, the emperor should take a sip to moisten his throat!" ”

The Emperor took the bowl, took a slight sloppy sip, and set it aside.

"The two Taishi of Shicai Qin Tianjian found a golden sword in the goose head found in the East Palace," the emperor did not hide it from Xu Guifei: "Just now I saw that the little golden sword in Bo'er's hand is very similar to it. ”

"The emperor shouldn't think that incident has something to do with the second prince, right?" Xu Guifei was also surprised when she heard it.

"What do you think?" The emperor asked Xu Guifei rhetorically: "I am in a state of turmoil now. ”

"I don't think the second prince would do such a thing, their brothers have always been in love, don't say that he and the prince were born to the same mother, even the virtuous Bo'er and the prince are also brothers." Xu Guifei explained: "Besides, he has acted openly and uprightly since he was a child, and he must disdain to do such things as hiding his head and showing his tail. ”

Hearing her words, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief, took Xu Guifei's hand and said: "I feel much better after hearing your words, in fact, I don't believe that Jill would do such a thing." But I'm really afraid that there will be fratricide, which is a great misfortune for the community! ”

"The concubine understands the saint's worries, but in my opinion, such a thing will never happen." Xu Guifei softly soothed: "You are the ruler of the world, and the queen is a rare virtuous queen." Whether it is the previous dynasty or the harem, it is as stable as Mount Tai, even if it is a little unsatisfactory now, it is also common, don't you hear that the way of heaven is constant? Some droughts and floods are unavoidable even for a virtuous monarch like Yao Shun. ”

"These days, I am so worried, the ministers of the previous dynasty only know how to slander each other and fight for reason, and the queen only knows that I am trying to govern. Only here can you hear words of comfort. ”

Xu Guifei is different from the queen, she only needs to please the emperor alone, unlike the queen, in order to balance the harem, she has to set an example, but she rarely says these words of sympathy and comfort to the emperor.

After a while, the palace people who passed the meal had already presented the imperial meal, Xu Guifei personally poured wine for the cloth vegetables, and after the emperor had eaten, she served and bathed, and in a blink of an eye it was almost dusk, and the emperor rested directly in her palace.

Therefore, Tianxi Palace was quiet early today, and because there was a personal palace maid to serve, Ding Neijian withdrew.

Although he was the head of the Tianxi Palace, he did not live in this courtyard, and it was not his class tonight, so he went straight back to his residence.

He was accompanied by two clever little eunuchs, who had just entered the palace and were only about ten years old.

These two little eunuchs directly call Ding Neijian Master, which is also the rule in the palace, and all new eunuchs who enter the palace must worship Master.

The eunuchs are destined to have no queen, and many old people die in this palace. Accepting an apprentice is also for his own future plans, with the name of master and apprentice, it is only natural for the apprentice to provide for the master's pension in the future.

Of course, those powerful eunuchs naturally have countless people who want to recognize the master, and those unpowerful old eunuchs are not cared for.

Although Ding Neijian is not the first in this palace, he is also a great eunuch who can be counted, and there are countless little eunuchs who want to recognize him as a master, but he is not very willing to accept apprentices.

However, this time these two little eunuchs were really likable, and they were entrusted by others, so Eunuch Ding accepted the two of them.

After returning to the residence, the two little apprentices served the inner prisoner Ding diligently.

Seeing that it was not too late, Ding Neijian suddenly remembered his master.

So he changed his clothes, ordered the two apprentices not to follow him, and walked slowly to the cold palace by himself.

As soon as night fell, the cold palace was quiet and no different from the cemetery.

The dim candlelight is like a ghost fire, and the whispering is just like the ghost whispering.

Ordinary people must feel creepy about this situation, but Ding Neijian feels extremely comfortable and beautiful.

In front of his master, he was a diligent and capable minion, but when he arrived here, he felt extremely relaxed.

Ding Neijian walked silently, and he always gave people the impression of being light and fluttering. No one in the Tim Xi Palace dared to speak ill of him, because I don't know when he came quietly behind you.

The weedy yard is barren, and the path is only for one person to walk. Eunuch Ding came to Grandpa Yan's room, Grandpa Yan was blind, he didn't need to light the lamp.

The lantern in Ding's hand was lit, and the room was narrow, and one lantern was enough to illuminate.

Gonggong Yan shrank beside the table, trembling like chaff.

Although Ding Neijian walks softly, his hearing becomes extremely sharp for the blind. What's more, for Ding Neijian, Gonggong Yan's facial features are out of order, and he can feel it the same.

It was a fear carved into my bones.

"Master, have you eaten at your old man's house?" Ding Neijian stepped forward and slowly squatted down, looked at Grandpa Yan's dirty and ugly face, and asked with interest, "They didn't treat you harshly, did they?" ”

Gonggong Yan shook his head in a panic, hoping that Ding Neijian could walk away immediately.

But Ding Neijian didn't mean to leave, he reached out and touched the joints on Yan's father-in-law's hands, and asked, "Haven't you had gout these days?" ”

Gonggong Yan shook his head first, and then nodded in a panic.

Ding Neijian's feminine face suddenly became extremely hideous, and he shouted in a depressed and hysterical manner: "Didn't you eat?!" I asked them to send you big fish. The people who are locked up here can't get a bite for a year! You didn't eat it well! ”

After saying that, he stood up and walked around the house like a hound, trying to find the food that was hidden by Grandpa Yan, but he didn't find it.

"Master, I sincerely honor you, you can't help but appreciate it! At the beginning, you didn't look down on me, and taught your big apprentice with your heart. But now? It's not that I ask someone to bring you food and drink every day. The grass on the grave of your great apprentice is three feet high. Ding Neijian smiled a little exaggeratedly: "Now I am better than blue, and I am much more beautiful than you were back then." Do you remember the first thing you said when you saw me? You say I'm too ambitious and ruthless......"

Ding Neijian changed his usual appearance and began to chatter.

Outside the house, Wei Yi squatted quietly in the wild grass, knowing that Ding Neijian had locked his master here, gouged out his tongue, blinded his eyes, and turned him into a living dead who could only listen to himself.

Keding's internal prison needs such a person so that he can talk to his heart's content.
