Chapter 5: The Chamber
After teasing Yu'er, Li Xuan went out to get down to business.
There is still some time before Jingyang Palace has breakfast, and it is just time to finish the things that were not done yesterday.
While Yu'er helped Princess Ankang wash, Li Xuan secretly brought out the bones under the bed.
I don't dare to keep this thing at home, and I won't be able to get into the hands of others in the future.
Li Xuan has a cautious personality and has always been meticulous in his work.
In his previous life, he was unemployed because he was too meticulous and discovered some secrets of the leadership.
But Li Xuan has never regretted this matter.
Right is right, wrong is wrong.
He was still young, and the world was still black and white in his eyes.
And there is a price to pay for this......
The past is unbearable.
Li Xuan skimmed away his memories and concentrated on what was in front of him.
He took the leftover bones from last night, ran to someone's yard far away, found a big tree under it, dug a pit and buried it.
If someone finds out about stealing food in the palace, if there is no one to rely on, whether it is a person or a cat, it will be difficult to escape death.
Therefore, Li Xuan cannot be cautious.
On weekdays, he only goes to inspect the imperial dining room once every three days.
It's just the time to send the remaining imperial food in the palace to the restaurant outside.
From the completion of the preparation to the emperor's eating, and then the reward to the cronies and eunuchs, the amount of the imperial meal is strictly monitored.
It wasn't until the final delivery out of the restaurant that there was a little slack.
Because after these imperial meals are sent outside the palace, they are no longer real imperial meals, and there is no need to strictly control them.
In this regard, the palace also maintained a tacit understanding from top to bottom, turning a blind eye.
Always have to leak some benefits between your fingers, so that you can better handle these minions under your hands.
If it is tight, it is not beautiful.
The emperor does not give his leftover imperial food every day, and many times the emperor finishes eating and puts it in the imperial dining room, waiting to be sent out of the palace.
After all, if there were such a thing as a reward every day, it would not be so rare.
Therefore, most of the time, most of the leftovers in the imperial dining room are sent out of the palace every three days, and only a small part of them will be secretly intercepted by some nobles and eunuchs during this period.
These people are also like this when they encounter rare delicacies that they like to eat, otherwise they are not willing to eat other people's leftovers.
Even if this is the emperor's leftovers, even if it is a great honor.
Inside the palace, outside the palace.
A majestic imperial city separated from each other also made many things very different.
……
After Li Xuan "destroyed the corpse and destroyed the traces", he walked around the palace.
He's just a cat, he doesn't have to wake up early, he doesn't have to go to work, and he doesn't have performance.
I only need to eat and sleep every day, and occasionally tease Ankang and be happy.
Being a cat is indeed easier than being a human.
He followed the memories of last night, searched all the way, and it didn't take long to find the place.
[Prison Guard].
This is where Li Xuan bumped into the little eunuch last night.
"The Chamberlain? It seems that the little eunuch has just entered the palace. ”
Last night, Li Xuan went directly to the courtyard of the little eunuch, and he didn't see where the courtyard belonged yet.
The chamber is responsible for training eunuchs and palace maids who have just entered the palace, and is also responsible for evaluating their work, and those who fail to pass will be severely punished.
The function is similar to that of a training center, which is equivalent to a novice village for eunuchs and palace maids.
"Yesterday's yard was ......"
Li Xuan searched all the way, and finally found the courtyard where he secretly learned martial arts last night.
The conditions here are relatively poor, and a dozen or so eunuchs who have just entered the palace live in one room.
Generally speaking, this is the condition for just entering the palace.
In the small courtyard, many eunuchs were busy going in and out without touching the ground with their heels, but they just didn't see the little eunuch last night.
I think I should have gone to the training early in the morning, and I guess I didn't have a chance to come back during the whole day.
But Li Xuan has now recognized the way, and he is not worried about not finding his "master".
"I have long heard that there are many masters among the eunuchs in Ouchi, and it seems that this is true."
"I just don't know if the little eunuch brought Yi into the palace last night, or was appreciated as soon as he came in."
Speaking of which, last night was the first time Li Xuan met someone practicing in this inner palace.
Otherwise, his "talent" would have been developed a long time ago.
Those Ouchi guards patrol all day long, which one has the leisure to practice in the palace.
As for the eunuch practice, I haven't seen it anymore.
Because when Li Xuan left Jingyang Palace, he would always deliberately avoid other people, especially the eunuchs in the palace.
The palace is hierarchical and full of intrigue.
Behind that obedient servile face, no one can guarantee whether they have a normal psychology.
At least, Li Xuan saw the stumps and broken arms of small animals in some remote corners from time to time.
Mostly sparrows, sometimes cats and dogs.
If he encounters a psychopathic eunuch with superb martial arts, Li Xuan will be arrested and cooked, and he will not be reasonable.
But last night's little eunuch was different.
Just entered the palace, and the psychology is not too perverted.
And he can also do martial arts, but his cultivation is not high.
It is suitable to be Li Xuan's first master, safe and assured.
After confirming where the master lived, Li Xuan wagked his tail and went home.
Jingyang Palace is about to have dinner, so I have to go back quickly.
Although porridge can no longer fill Li Xuan's stomach, eating with his family is the most important thing.
In the huge deep palace compound, Li Xuan can still have a home, and he has already gone through a lot of shit luck.
Naturally, you should cherish it!
……
In the following days, Li Xuan went to the prison every night to learn martial arts, and practiced diligently every day.
The little eunuch in the prison was also diligent, starting his practice on time at midnight every day, and only giving up after practicing for an hour, rain or shine.
During the day, he had to receive training from the prison and at night, and the little eunuch had to be really tough.
This also made it convenient for Li Xuan to learn every day, and he can now perfectly practice this set of tiger shape ten styles.
And he found that practicing only once a day has the best effect, and he can increase his progress by about 5% once.
No matter how much you practice, your progress will not only slow down, but it will also empty your body and make you tired.
If you don't take food tonic in time, I'm afraid it will hurt the root, so after Li Xuan tried it once, he didn't dare to practice more.
In this way, Li Xuan also set his own daily charter.
Every night, I first went to the imperial dining room to inspect it, just pick up high-energy meat and eat some secretly, and then went to the prison by the way, and waited for the little eunuchs to practice together.
After practicing once, he carefully observed the movements of the little eunuch, checked and filled in the gaps for himself, and then returned to Jingyang Palace to sleep after he finished his work, without knowing it.
During the day, he accompanied Ankang to bask in the sun to make up for sleep, and the days were not unpleasant.
On this day, Li Xuan lay in Ankang's arms and basked in the sun together, checking the progress beautifully.
[Tiger Ten Style: 86%]
"After three or four more days of practice, this exercise will be completed at the end of the practice, and I don't know what will happen when the time comes?"
Li Xuan thought expectantly.
In recent days, as the progress of Tiger Ten Styles has been improving, he can clearly feel that his body is getting stronger and stronger.
Although the size has not changed from before, the strength and speed contained in the small body have long been different.
Of course, Li Xuan's food volume has also risen with the tide, and now he is uncomfortable if he doesn't eat some meat a day, just like not eating.
Fortunately, he had the whole imperial dining room behind him to support him, otherwise even if he was willing to catch mice, I am afraid it would not be enough.
The growing strength made Li Xuan's self-confidence swell.
He is now a little eager to touch the cat bully to see which one is stronger and which is weaker.
And just when Li Xuanchang was thinking about the plot of "Don't bully the kitten to be poor", there was a noise outside the gate of Jingyang Palace.
It sounded like it was Yu'er, and it seemed to be arguing.
"That's it! How is it enough? ”
Yu'er's tone was indignant, with a faint cry of grievance.
