Chapter 10: The Eunuch

"Jade, the country's heavy weapon, so given the name 'and the family', because of the meritorious dedication of the treasure, especially chased Bian and for Jing Hou, buried under Jing Mountain...... His son Bian Xi, loyal and courageous, filial piety to the world, special worship for Yuyin, in charge of Chu jade mining, jade making, sacrifices and many other state affairs! ”

With the young and handsome eunuch next to the king of Chu, after reading the royal edict, in the court of Chu State, above the main hall, the king set up a banquet, and the ministers were attached, and there was a scene of singing and dancing......

Everyone was lost in the song and swallow dance, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, with a voice "Congratulations to my king, happy to be the treasure of the world" and the family', from now on my Dachu will dominate the world, and the country will be prosperous for all generations......" flattery, the sound of whiskers and horses, instantly filled the entire hall!

At this time, Lord Yuyin Bian Xi, who was sitting in the corner, was alone in the face of his father Bian He's recent death, sad! During the feast, he borrowed wine to drown his sorrows and poured himself a drink, because he remembered the happy scene of the family when he was a child!

At this moment, he is dissolute, unruly, and indulgent! He tasted the wine and food, looked at the Chu girl in front of him, dancing with strings, and fluttering clothes...... Unconsciously, he was already intoxicated with the Chu Yun of later generations, and as for the things in the hall, he seemed to look like "it's none of his business"!

As the saying goes, "The drunkard's intention is not in the wine, but only in the mountains and rivers?" Thinking of his family, thinking of the sore spot, he took advantage of the strength of the wine, half-drunk and half-awake, to do a getaway......

At this time, a young man suddenly flashed in the crowd, came to Bian Xi's table, and saw that the man was neither humble nor arrogant to lift a pot of fine wine and pour it into the cup......

Then he said: "Lord Yuyin, the younger one is Min Sui, a temple person, have you seen Lord Bian?" ”

The man was dressed in a gray green coat and wore a white cylindrical hat with a knotted rope tied under his chin.

There was an egret sewn on the front and back of the shirt, a pair of black internal attendant boots, and a slight arch of the body, standing in front of Bian Xi with a smile and a glass of freshly poured wine in his hand...... quietly watched Bian Xi and admired his unruly and unruly appearance!

The clothes of the eunuchs are gray, blue, red, brown, camel five colors, spring is blue-gray, summer is tea camel, autumn and winter are blue-gray, birthday wear red-purple, taboo blue purple.

The eunuchs who received the rank of official wore a variety of hats: the second rank was a red hat, the third rank was blue, the fourth rank was dark blue, the fifth rank was white, the sixth rank was gray, the seventh rank was gold, and the eighth rank was gold embroidered with longevity characters.

In addition, the birds with sewn on the front and back of the shirt also indicate the rank of the eunuch, that is, the second rank is the crane, the third rank is the phoenix, the fourth rank is the peacock, the fifth rank is the heron, the sixth rank is the warbler, and the seventh and eighth ranks are quails.

The eunuchs were dressed in purple satin robes, with dragons or bats with coiled tails tattooed on their chests and chests. The other eunuchs wore blue or purple cloth clothes and had no crotch.

It can be seen that the person who came, although he was a eunuch, also lived in the fifth grade according to his rank, which was about the same as Bian Xi's grade...... It's just that because he is a eunuch in the inner court, he has a look of humility!

"Min Sui? Bian Sui? Who are you? ”

Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar face in front of him, Bian Xi suddenly woke up and suddenly realized......

So in a panic, he hurriedly threw away the wine glass and exclaimed: "Could it be that you are your brother Bian Sui?"

Oh my God? Eighteen years have passed, how did you end up here?

My father and I are looking for you so hard?

Not long after my father and I returned from the Mochizuki Cave to collect treasure, it didn't take long for you to be forcibly conscripted into the army and sent to the front line to fight the nations, and you have not been heard from since?

The whole family thought you had died in the war......

The father turned white overnight, and the mother even cried and blinded her eyes, and the grandmother died early......

Immediately afterwards, when my father was slandered, he was convicted, tortured, and had his left foot cut off......

Forced to make a living, I had to follow my father on crutches to go into the mountains to pick jade again, but I didn't think that my family suffered from bandits again, my mother died of illness, and my little sister was nowhere to be found?

After that happened, I supported my father and searched all over the north and south of the river, barren mountains and mountains, but in the end I still found nothing?

It is guessed that she may have been eaten by tigers, leopards and wolves, or she may have been captured and sold by robbers, in short, life and death are unpredictable...... Heartbreaking!

Later, when his father saw that there was no hope of finding Azhu, he decisively turned around and returned to his hometown, which was already a family member, and he was ready to offer the treasure for the second time, but his right foot was cut off again, so he became what he is now......

As for the final outcome, do you know the end?

I don't need to say ...... anymore."

"Lord Yuyin...... I'm afraid you've mistaken someone?

Under the surname Min Mingsui, it is called "Min Sui", not the elder brother "Bian Sui" as the adults say......

What's more, I have been an orphan since I was a child, with no relatives and no support, and it is only in order to survive that I am forced to clean myself with tears...... I have been in the palace for more than ten years, and it is my only duty to serve the king, as for other aspects, I am already a useless waste, and I really dare not climb Lord Yuyin!

In this way, I'll tell you a story to Lord Yuyin, right? I don't know if you're interested......"

"Oh? Lord Min, please tell me ......"

Although Bian Xi said that after learning his identity, he looked puzzled? But the suggestion that this person was going to tell a story just now instantly became very interested?

"Chu has three kings......

One is said to be absurd and nonsense;

Second, it is said that the "Warrior King's Expedition" is not in constant war;

Third, it is said that "King Wen is good at planning" singing and dancing!

Bian He offers treasures......

A dedication, King Li cut off his left foot;

In the second offering, King Wu cut off his right foot;

Three dedications, King Wen felt his sincerity, mourned his loyalty, cut the stone and examined the jade, and finally got the treasure......

One thought of life and death, the four walls of the family are too absurd, the old grave does not see bitter tears, how many people laugh and how many people are sad? Alas, thinking about the past...... Shadow with you! ”

The eunuch named "Min Sui" sighed and continued slowly......
