At this time, Zhu Jingxuan, who had roughly sorted out the rough memories of the old eunuch, couldn't help but sigh lightly again.

From the memory of this old eunuch, Zhu Jingxuan learned that this old eunuch was actually a poor person.

He was originally an ordinary cattle herding baby in the neighboring village of Sun Moon Guoyou, and there were six brothers and sisters in the family, because life was unsustainable, so his parents wanted to choose one of their five brothers to sell to the palace as a eunuch after selling the only female baby to a big family as a maid.

The reason why he was sold to the palace as a eunuch instead of being sold to a large family as a slave was because he could sell more money if he was sold to the palace as a eunuch.

It's just that when choosing a candidate to be sold, his parents made a difficulty.

After all, the five brothers are their own flesh and blood, and no matter who they choose to sell, it is a heart-wrenching thing for parents.

In the end, after some discussion, their parents decided to use a lottery between the fourth and fifth children to determine the final candidate to be sold.

The reason why it is selected from the fourth and fifth is because the eldest is strong and can be used as a labor force in the family to help the family work, and the second is very watery, and can often go down to the river to catch some fish and shrimp or something to sell in the market to subsidize the family, as for the third, as for the third, it will not take a few years, you can also share the pressure for the family.

Therefore, the fourth and fifth children, who are still young and cannot help the family share the pressure, have become the target of their parents' trafficking.

And this old eunuch is the fourth in the family.

Because the fourth of the two is a little older, their parents let the fourth ...... That is, the old eunuch prepares two finger-sized bamboo sticks, one long and one short, and when the lottery is held, those who draw the long lot will be sold to the palace.

The fourth child didn't want to enter the palace as a eunuch, so when the fourth child was preparing the bamboo stick, he made a mark.

It's just that what the fourth child didn't expect was that he had already marked it, but when he confidently drew the short stick, he suddenly found that the length of the remaining bamboo stick in his parents' hands was shorter than the bamboo stick in his hand......

At that moment, the fourth child understood everything!

It turned out that the so-called lottery was foolish from the beginning, and their parents, as early as the beginning, had already made a choice in their hearts.

And he, the fourth child in the family, is the child who was abandoned by their parents!

After all, among the five brothers, the eldest and second can already create income for the family, and the third can work for the family in a few years, as for the fifth...... is the youngest child in the family, and he is also the most popular with his parents, so in the end, he can only sacrifice him, the fourth child!

After that, it was the memory of the fourth child after entering the palace.

……

……

"Water...... Water...... Water ......"

The fourth child let out an unconscious moan, and then seemed to feel his lips moist, and immediately subconsciously swallowed a few mouthfuls.

The decoction enters the throat and flows into the stomach and intestines.

With a wave of warmth dissipating into the internal organs, it flowed to the limbs and hundreds of remains, and soon, the weak body of the fourth child regained some strength slightly.

After barely opening his eyes, the fourth child saw an old man with a white face and beard, quietly looking down at him.

At the same time, the severe pain in the lower body made the fourth child's consciousness, which was still in a fog, directly sober up.

Fourth...... That is, the old eunuch, who had just experienced the betrayal of his family, was sold into the palace in ignorance, and, before he could see the scene in the palace, he was taken into a slightly gloomy little house, and then, when he opened his eyes again, he was no longer a man—although at that time, he did not know what this meant......

"Awake?" The old eunuch who "operated" on the fourth child touched the fourth child's head with a smile, and then said lightly, "Remember, Ming'er, with the others, after breakfast, I will go to Mingyi Hall to read and write." ”

After saying that, the old eunuch didn't care what the fourth child thought in his heart, and directly picked up the medicine box and left here.

After the old eunuch left, the fourth child looked at the situation in the room slightly.

In a very small and low room, in addition to him, there were three bunks, two of which were occupied by people about the same as him, and on the other bunk, the quilt was spread out haphazardly.

……

……

Skillful crown.

T.

Large-sleeved robe.

This is the fourth ...... That is, the first dress of the old eunuch after entering the palace.

Bronze mirror front ...... I've heard about it in my hometown, but I've never seen such a thing, and I'm seriously looking at my figure.

How so...... can only be said to be delicate, as for the figure...... Thin, not tall - after all, it is a child of a peasant family, and it can be said that it is already commendable to grow like this!

"Eh, eh...... What are you looking at? ”

When the fourth child stood in front of the mirror and carefully looked at his figure, suddenly, at this moment, a voice like a male duck's voice suddenly came from beside him.

The fourth child heard the voice, and immediately let go and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

With the fourth child's turn, suddenly, a slightly old waiter came into the eyes of the fourth child.

After thinking about it for a while, the fourth child understood that the one in front of him should be the owner of the messy bunk.

Because the other party is the "old man" who entered the palace, therefore, the fourth child who first entered the palace seemed very respectful, and without saying a word, he bent down very heartily to ask Andao: "Father-in-law, what do you command?" ”

"You can't be called 'father-in-law'!" Seeing that the fourth child was so familiar with current affairs, the waiter's originally slightly unhappy expression suddenly eased greatly, "My name is Xiao Xizi, since we are destined to live in the same room, in the future, you can call me by my name!" ”

"Father-in-law Xi laughed, you are a senior, how dare I trespass?" At this moment, the fourth child's posture is very low.

Seeing that the fourth child was so humble and acquainted, the eunuch named "Xiao Xizi" couldn't help but show a look of approval: "What's your name?" ”

"Hui Xi father-in-law, I don't have a name, but my family likes to call me Xiaosi, you can call me 'Little Sizi'!" The fourth child immediately replied.

"Hmm...... Little fourth son, you can come with me for breakfast later! "My father-in-law is not polite, and directly calls the fourth son as "little fourth".

"Father-in-law, I heard the old man who cleansed me yesterday say that after breakfast, we are going to Mingyi Hall today to read and write?" The fourth child asked with some curiosity about the joy of justice around him.
