Chapter 52 Good news! Eunuch Chen won't die, but Black Wind will!
Chen Fan examined the golden bowl carefully for a moment.
He then put it back into his arms.
Chen Fan's intuition told him that there was definitely some connection between the spirit stone and the golden bowl.
Or perhaps feeding the Golden Bowl enough spirit stones would unveil its mystery.
Thinking of this, a hint of anticipation appeared in Chen Fan's eyes.
He thought to himself that he had plenty of radishes, and if he were to exchange them all for spirit stones, it would be an astonishing amount.
If Chen Fan could find out the origin of the golden bowl through this, it would be worthwhile.
He smiled, a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, and then vanished in a flash.
A world within a bowl.
In the field, Eunuch Wei was diligently pulling up radishes.
Even though he was a post-natal realm expert, growing radishes on three acres of land wasn't something that could be done quickly.
His back was aching from exhaustion, so he couldn't resist picking up a radish, wiping it, and then taking a crunchy bite.
Eunuch Wei took a bite, and the radish flesh and juice left a lingering, delightful taste in his mouth.
The rich spiritual energy nourished his heart, spleen, and dantian.
"Instead of doing any work, you're just here eating."
Just as Eunuch Wei was enjoying his meal, Chen Fan quietly appeared.
"Don't misunderstand, Eunuch Chen, we're just eating our own portion," Eunuch Wei replied, his face flushed.
"This land has no share for you! It all belongs to our family!" Chen Fan said stingily, like a landlord or tycoon.
"Do you know how many spirit stones our family lost just now because of that bite?"
"How much?" Eunuch Wei asked, somewhat apprehensive.
"Four low-grade spirit stones!" Chen Fan held up four fingers and said.
"Eunuch Wei, how can you be so shameless?"
"Our family...our family..." Eunuch Wei was like someone who had swallowed a bitter pill, unable to express his suffering.
"Alright, this won't happen again!" Chen Fan waved his hand and said.
"From now on, only what our family gives you will truly be yours. You can't touch anything we haven't given you yet, not even a single hair, understand?"
"I understand..." Eunuch Wei said somewhat humbly.
He gave Eunuch Wei a good talking-to.
Chen Fan felt much better.
He glanced at the mountain of white radishes piled up in the yard and a smile appeared on his lips.
To prevent Eunuch Wei from stealing the food, he followed suit with a wave of his hand.
Instantly, the small mountain of radishes in the yard vanished on the spot.
Seeing this, Eunuch Wei felt a pang of bitterness.
He even planned to sneak a few more after the old eunuch left.
It now appears that his plan has failed.
Wei Gonggong finally saw through this stingy and cunning old eunuch.
"We went to the market last night, it's a nice place," Chen Fan added.
"Just as you said, the market is indeed a mixed bag. I even saw powerful figures from eight different countries strolling around here... With so many powerful figures gathered in one place, aren't the forces behind the market afraid of causing trouble?"
Upon hearing the inquiry.
Eunuch Wei shook his head.
Having been to the market several times, he naturally knew what the place was like.
And that was just the surface of the market; the real market was much more powerful!
"No, that won't happen," said Eunuch Wei.
"Eunuch Chen, the market has a very powerful backer. No one dares to act recklessly there. Even the people from the Eight Great Immortal Sects have to follow the rules!"
"We're just curious," Chen Fan said with a squinty smile.
"These radishes sell for four spirit stones each at Baicaotang. Do you think we're losing money?"
"Four spirit stones?" Eunuch Wei asked in surprise.
"Is your father-in-law telling the truth?"
Chen Fan nodded slightly, then repeated what the people from Baicaotang had said.
After hearing this, Eunuch Wei's eyes were filled with disbelief.
Looking at the spirit stones in the ground, he exclaimed as if he were seeing spirit stones:
"Spiritual herbs need time to mature and are more valuable than spirit stones. This radish is full of spiritual energy and is several times stronger than ordinary hundred-year-old ginseng. Baicaotang has a good reputation and should be offering a fair price."
Hearing this, Chen Fan felt relieved.
He also planned to sell radishes at the market, hoping to make a fortune.
Just as he was about to say something, there was a sudden noise outside the bowl.
Without lingering, Chen Fan vanished in an instant!
Standing there dumbfounded, Eunuch Wei was taken aback by what he saw.
He wanted to curse, but then swallowed his words back.
Turning around to look at those big, thick radishes, Eunuch Wei felt his mouth watering.
"No stealing food..."
Just as he was about to steal a bite, the old eunuch's voice came from above.
This made Eunuch Wei grit his teeth, then look up at the misty sky and say:
"Father-in-law, you're overthinking it. How could we possibly steal food?"
……
In the room.
Chen Fan glanced at the movement inside the golden bowl.
Then he withdrew his senses.
He coughed once, sitting upright, and then got up to open the door.
"Godfather, someone from the Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs has arrived..."
Outside the door, Little Stool looked miserable!
The Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs has arrived?
Chen Fan's heart sank.
He hadn't expected the other party to arrive so quickly, so he could only bite the bullet and say:
"Why are you crying... We're going to join the Emperor, it's an honor, you should be smiling, understand?"
"Godfather, Little Stool can't laugh..." Little Stool's face showed a mixture of crying and laughing.
This made Chen Fan laugh instantly.
Looking at the silly boy in front of him, he felt a warmth in his heart.
"We're content with your kindness... All good things must come to an end... Don't cry!"
it is good!
Xiao Dengzi wiped away her tears and helped Chen Fan walk towards the gate of the Imperial Horse Stable.
The two people, one old and one young, cast very long shadows under the midday sun.
Outside the gate of the Imperial Horse Stable.
Three eunuchs from the Directorate of Ceremonial Affairs were waiting here.
The eunuch in the middle, dressed in a blue robe with red trim, quickly greeted Chen Fan with a smile upon seeing him emerge:
"Oh, long time no see! Eunuch Chen looks much healthier!"
"Eunuch Lin...it's you...long time no see." Chen Fan, who was hunched over and squinting, nodded slightly when he saw that it was Eunuch Lin, an acquaintance.
Seeing this, the little stool that was supporting his arm also nodded respectfully.
"Don't be nervous..." Eunuch Lin, perhaps noticing their nervousness, explained:
"We're here to deliver the Regent's decree..."
Regent?
The Eighth Prince, Xiao Quan.
Chen Fan was taken aback, as if he had guessed something.
The old emperor died, and this man became the new emperor of Daeyoshi.
What he is saying now can indeed be called an imperial edict.
"By the grace of Heaven, the Emperor decrees... Eunuch Chen Fan, for his meritorious service in tending horses, is hereby granted a special pardon and shall be buried in the Imperial Mausoleum after his death... So be it!"
After reading the imperial edict, Eunuch Lin clasped his hands in congratulations and said:
"Congratulations, Eunuch Chen! Congratulations, Eunuch Chen! The Regent has spared you from being buried alive with the late Emperor. This is an immense favor!"
"Eunuch Chen Fan kowtows to express his gratitude to the Emperor..." Chen Fan, with a smile on his face, also accepted the imperial decree with both hands to express his thanks.
Upon seeing this, the little stool next to him burst into tears of joy.
"Eunuch Chen," Eunuch Lin spoke again:
"The Imperial Stables have the late emperor's horses. You can hand them over to me now; they are still doomed to die anyway."
"I understand..." Chen Fan gave Xiao Deng a look and said:
"Go and bring Black Wind out."
The little stool nodded slightly, then turned and left.
After the person left.
Eunuch Lin then chuckled and teased:
"Eunuch Chen, you were deeply favored by the late emperor, and now, even before the new emperor has ascended the throne, he has granted you a pardon. In my opinion... you are truly blessed!"
