The back room is busy.

Because there were too many people who died last night, although most of the corpses of the rebels were cleaned up by the Praetorian Guards, there were still many eunuchs and palace maids who died in the military accident.

They have been carrying corpses everywhere since dawn.

When Su Chen came to the back room, he only saw that the courtyard was almost full, and he could smell the pungent smell of blood from a distance, and the direction of the crematorium was even more smoky, exuding the smell of burning.

In order to facilitate disposal, many corpses were burned directly.

On weekdays, the back room collects money to do errands and collects corpses for others, and can get some oil and water, so the corpses will be sent out of the palace for burial in accordance with the rules.

Even if it's just a roll of straw mats, at least it's in the ground.

But this time it was different, there were too many deaths, and there was basically no oil and water to speak of.

Naturally, the people below cannot be time-consuming and laborious, and can only deal with it conveniently.

Su Chen came to the back room and found a steward on duty to explain his intentions.

When the man heard this, he frowned, and said impatiently: "There are too many people who died today, where can you take care of it, you can send the corpses over yourself and burn them together." ”

Let Gonggong Li and those eunuchs and palace maids who don't know who it are are burned to ashes, and it is difficult to distinguish each other?

Su Chen shook his head.

He couldn't do anything like that.

So he took out a money bag from his bosom, looked at it with some reluctance, and then handed it over.

This is all the belongings he left behind in the past three years of frugality.

"My husband was a decent person when he was alive, but now that he is gone, no one cares, but at least please leave him a full corpse ......"

Hearing his sincere words, the steward eunuch checked the money bag in his hand, the weight is not small, with the position of the other party, it may not be easy to accumulate this money.

There was a hint of admiration in his eyes.

is willing to spend all his savings for an old eunuch who has no power and no power, and has died, and he can be regarded as a person who values love and righteousness.

There are not many words of love and righteousness in the world, but in this deep palace, it is still precious.

"For the sake of your sincerity......"

After thinking for a moment, the steward put down the money bag, and then said: "Leave the name of the deceased and the position of the palace, and I will send someone to collect the body and send it out of the palace for ......burial as usual."

"Thank you!"

Su Chen thanked him, and then reported the name of Gonggong Li.

When the steward saw the word Kwai Yuan, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then said, "It turned out to be Gonggong Li, is his old man no longer there?" ”

"The steward knows Gonggong Li?"

"Hehe, three years ago, I was working as an errand ...... in Kwai Yuan"

Hearing this, Su Chen remembered that Xiao Chezi had said that Xiao Anzi, who was on an errand before him, stayed in Kwai Yuan for a while, but then he couldn't stand the coldness and made money, so he was transferred to the back room with rich oil and water.

Unexpectedly, now it has become a small steward.

Since they are acquaintances, it is much more convenient to do things.

After Xiao Anzi learned that it was for Gonggong Li's body, he was obviously much more positive: "When I first arrived in Kwai Yuan, Gonggong Li took care of me, but now that he is gone, I also want to do my part." I personally went to collect the body of my father-in-law, and then found a feng shui treasure for him and buried him well! ”

"Thank you! If you can, tell me the place of the burial afterwards. If he has the opportunity, he can also go and worship one or two in the future. ”

Xiao Anzi nodded when he heard this.

praised: "Brother is really a person of affection, rest assured, I will definitely handle this matter......"

……

Xiao Anzi also believed in his word.

Soon, he personally took these two little eunuchs to Kwai Yuan with Su Chen.

"Gonggong Li is a hero, I can't imagine it, but in the end he will go so lonely."

Xiao Anzi sighed, looked around the room for a while, and then came to the old eunuch's corpse, and found that his appearance had been sorted out, and he couldn't help but be stunned.

"It seems that my brother is really a caring person, and it saves us a lot of trouble."

He smiled.

Immediately, without further delay, the body was carried away.

Su Chen looked at their departing backs, and always felt a little weird, but he couldn't say what was wrong.

I didn't take it to heart.

The eldest princess is gone, and Gonggong Li is dead.

Kwai Garden, which was already deserted, became even more deserted.

Compared to the hectic and chaotic court outside the courtyard, this seems to be a different world.

Su Chen looked at the snow in the yard, and his heart drifted.

"It's okay, in the future, I will be the only one in this Kwai Garden, a separate courtyard, far away from the hustle and bustle, and I can calm down and practice."

"Only by enduring loneliness can we keep immortality!"

Thinking about it like this, I suddenly feel a lot more relaxed.

When you calm down, go back to your room.

began to continue to practice Tiangang Tongzi Gong.

Breathe and breathe, mobilize the energy of Yuan Yang in the body, cooperate with internal force, slowly penetrate deep into the muscles, and try to temper and boil the bones of the body......

This cultivation didn't last long.

Su Chen heard the copper bell ringing outside the hospital, and when noon arrived, the room still delivered the meal on time.

But.

What he didn't expect was that the person who delivered the meal had changed again.

There were too many people who died last night, there were rebels, there were thieves who took advantage of the chaos, and there were some innocent unlucky people.

Obviously, the tall and thin little eunuch before was one of them.

But what surprised Su Chen a little was that the person who delivered the meal this time was actually an acquaintance.

"Su Chen, I haven't seen you for three years, are you doing well in Kwai Yuan?"

The little eunuch smiled and took the initiative to say hello.

Su Chen looked him up and down for a long time, and then he recalled that when the Department of Internal Affairs was assigned, there was a little eunuch who was unwell and had difficulty walking, and he had helped him.

Speaking of which, it is indeed an acquaintance, but it can only be said to be a nodding acquaintance.

So Su Chen was not particularly impressed.

In addition, after not seeing each other for three years, the other party has changed a lot, not only has he grown a lot taller, but his original simple face has also gained a little more vicissitudes.

Obviously, in the past three years, he has not had a very good life, and now he can get mixed into the house on an errand, and I don't know what kind of price he has paid.

"It's you......"

After some conversation and reminiscence, Su Chen knew the name of the little eunuch.

His name is Lin Fan.

A name that doesn't sound ordinary.

Now in the palace, everyone calls him Xiaolinzi.

"When I was assigned before, everyone thought that you had the most no future in this Kwai Yuan, but now it seems that you are the most leisurely in this place."

Xiao Linzi said with some envy.

He was assigned to the most hard-working Huanyi Bureau before, suffered a lot, and even almost died, but then he was forced to have no choice, bowed to reality, and recognized a godfather.

Only then did I have the opportunity to jump out of the abyss and go to a relatively comfortable utility warehouse helper.

It wasn't until last night that the palace was in turmoil, many people died, and there was a shortage of manpower in the house, so he used silver to make up for this shortage.

Don't look at the status of the house, but it is very oily.

Purchase materials and eat kickbacks, and you can freely enter and exit the major palaces, exchange information and intelligence, and hear a lot of useful news.

If you are lucky, meet some big people, and even be valued by nobles, you will also have the opportunity to rise to prominence.

Although the relationship is not deep, Su Chen can feel from his words that this Xiaolinzi is a very ambitious person.

If you are lucky enough to keep climbing up, maybe you can really become a character in the future.

For such a person, Su Chen will not be easily offended, but he will not get too close to him.

Power and glory, soaring prosperity, these things are useful to him, but they have little meaning, compared to the risks brought by these things, he still prefers stability.

"It's your stuff, take it."

After briefly reminiscing about the old days, Xiao Linzi handed over a food box that was obviously larger, Lu Shen opened it and saw that in addition to the Zuogui wine that Gonggong Li had arranged a long time ago, there were also three hot dishes, although they were all vegetarian, but they were obviously much better than the food of ordinary waiters.

"It's ......"

Su Chen was a little puzzled, he didn't have any money to eat now.

When Xiao Linzi heard this, he smiled and said, "If you hadn't helped me back then, maybe I would have died." Now the brothers have some relationship in the room, and they will have three dishes a day in the future, and they will be full. However, now during the state funeral, I can only eat vegetarian first......"

After speaking, he waved his hand, and he didn't allow Su Chen to refuse, so he pushed the small cart and left, and continued to deliver food to other palaces.

looked at Lin Fan's departing back.

Su Chen nodded slightly, this person's nature is not bad, at least he knows how to report Entu, and he is also very patterned in doing things.

I'm afraid there will be something to be achieved in the future.

However, these have nothing to do with Su Chen.

"Hey, three dishes, good, you can have a good drink later."
