Chapter 141 Not a eunuch but a princess
This kiss was very lingering, and the water surface was silent, only reflecting the shadow of their kiss.
After the kiss, the prince looked at Shu Xingmi quietly, with a little pity and distress in his eyes, Shu Xingmi is very sensitive to this kind of eyes, he usually hates others looking at him with sympathetic eyes, this kind of His eyes are like soft knives, which can cut people's hearts with a dull pain, and goug out their hearts to pieces.
Whether it is sympathy or ridicule, it is annoying.
This look magnifies his flaws, making his shortcomings invisible, like a stripped naked execution.
Even though he knew that the prince had no malicious intentions, Shu Xingmi still felt uncomfortable inside, as if he had been scratched severely by a thin needle hidden in his clothes.
I no longer want to get pity from others, and I want to be treated with normal eyes.
Please stop looking at me like that.
Shu Xingmi suddenly felt guilty again, obviously the prince had done nothing wrong, yet he was somehow blaming him and sulking, just now he was ecstatic about the prince's kiss, but now his mood fell into a trough, in a mess.
Then, he fell into the deep swamp of inferiority and self-doubt.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Shu Xingmi's embarrassed expression, the crown prince reached out and rubbed Shu Xingmi's wet long hair: "Did I accidentally bite your tongue?"
Shu Xingmi's eyelashes were stained with water, he looked like he was crying, he shook his head: "No."
Don't know what to say.
"You... regret it?"
The prince blinked. Did he feel disgusted by kissing a man and didn't want to be with him anymore?
"No." Shu Xingmi smiled: "How can you be so fickle, I like Your Highness, I just feel that I am not worthy."
The prince flicked Shu Xingmi's forehead lightly: "There is nothing that is worthy or not."
"Your Highness belongs to the royal family, but I am not. Your Highness is healthy, but I am not." Shu Xingmi lowered his head and looked at his face on the water: "The difference between cloud and mud."
"It's not like that," the prince said seriously, "Think about the snowmen I made. They are of different sizes and shapes, but they are all made of ice and snow, just like people are made of flesh and blood. They will all melt and turn into a puddle of snow water, just like after a person dies, they all turn into a pile of ashes, from this point of view, everyone is the same."
"Since they are all the same...why does His Highness look at me with sympathetic eyes?"
"There was a little snowman who was unfortunately sunburned and a part of his body was melted... I just think it's a pity, and I don't mean to despise it, because...it's not the little snowman's fault."
"That's it." Shu Xingmi suddenly felt less depressed than before, as if the sun had shone into his heart: "Little Snowman feels very happy."
He thought, the snowman's world is very simple, but the human world is very complicated.
There is no real equality for everyone in the world. As long as there are people, there are people who are virtuous, stupid, beautiful and ugly, rich and poor, high and low. Death is equal to everyone, but the treatment after death is different. If someone has a grand burial and enshrines it for hundreds of generations, where is "everyone is the same"?
However, even if it is different, even if everyone looks down on themselves, even if they have no confidence in themselves...
Shu Xingmi raised his head and looked into the prince's eyes, there was at least one person in this world who would not underestimate him.
He embraced the prince's neck and kissed it proactively.
The next day, two super-big snowmen appeared in the courtyard of the East Palace, each one as tall as a person. The big snowman was holding a puppy lantern, and the little snowman was holding a piggy lantern, standing side by side.
The prince kept his promise, appointed Shu Xingmi as the chief eunuch of the East Palace, and went to the Inner Palace Bureau to receive a porcelain blue robe and a crown cap inlaid with emerald jade. There was a golden embroidered oriole on the collar, which was more majestic than the original young swallow.
Master, brother and Fulai all came to congratulate, Shu Xingmi confiscated Fulai's gift money, knowing that it was not easy for him.
To Shu Xingmi's shock, Ji Qi, the head of the imperial court, also came. He didn't give any gifts, but just stood quietly under the eaves not far away and looked at Shu Xingmi, as if he had something to say.
After the promotion ceremony was over, Shu Xingmi took the initiative to find Ji Qi, and the two went to Huangyuan for a secret talk.
"Congratulations." Ji Qi looked at Shu Xingmi's new clothes, showing a smile as light as autumn water: "From swallows to orioles, and then up to geese, peacocks, cranes..." He lowered his eyes and blinked: "Position title But sweet shackles."
"Master Xie made a point. In fact... I am very curious about the 'rejuvenation' that your lord said last time." This matter has been lingering in Shu Xingmi's mind for a long time: "I intend to join forces with your lord, and please ask your lord to Let me know one or two."
Ji Qi's smile deepened, as if she knew that he would choose this way a long time ago, her voice was as soft as a woman's: "Don't worry, I have to see if you are sincere, so I can teach you the most important method of rejuvenation for eunuchs , In other words, you have to do a few things for me, and when things are done, I will naturally give them all."
"What's the matter? Just ask my lord, as long as I can do it, I will definitely go through fire and water." Shu Xingmi looked eagerly, leaned forward slightly, and looked very doggy.
Ji Qi was overjoyed, it was best to control this beautiful and brainless little eunuch who is an Israeli servant.
"I heard that you are very close to the prince, and you are the celebrity in front of him." Ji Qi flattered him a little, in order to make him feel more at ease.
"No, it's just that His Highness doesn't despise me."
Shu Xingmi's face was calm, but he was startled in his heart. Could it be that what Ji Qi asked him to do had something to do with the prince?
"You eat and sleep with the prince. There are some things that others can't do, but you can do them with ease," Ji Qi fiddled with the agate wrench in his hand, the blood-red agate stone shone horribly under the winter sun : "You mix the five stone powder into the prince's meal, and let him eat it for two consecutive months. On March [-]st, you poison him with poisoned wine. On the day the prince is buried, I will rejuvenate him." way to tell you."
Ji Qi lowered his arm, and a small bottle of poisonous poison fell out of his sleeve and fell into his palm, and he handed it to Shu Xingmi: "Poisonous poison is colorless and tasteless, you mix it with ordinary wine and coax him to drink it, it's nothing Difficult."
The hope of rejuvenation actually cost the prince's life in exchange.
Shu Xingmi held the cold and smooth bottle, calmed down, and asked with a smile: "Why, does your lord have any enmity with the crown prince?"
"If you say yes, you have it, if you say nothing, you don't have it," Ji Qi didn't answer Shu Xingmi's question directly: "It's just a test to prove your loyalty to me."
"However, since the crown prince is going to be poisoned in the end anyway, why should he be given five stone powder for two months?" Shu Xingmi asked puzzled.
"Haha," Ji Qi smiled like a mischievous child: "Isn't it a pleasure to let him become the kind of person I hate the most? Addiction is something like it's impossible to quit. A few days ago His Majesty the Japanese Emperor ate the five stone powder and it tasted bad, so he begged me to give him two packs again? That face is really ugly, worse than a dog begging for food."
It would be great if there were fingerprint matching and a recording pen in this time and space. If you record all the words of the chief steward of the imperial court, and then extract the fingerprints on the small bottle containing poison, the steward can explode on the spot.
Unfortunately not.
Shu Xingmi sensed Ji Qi's dissatisfaction with the royal family from Ji Qi's tone and words, and wanted to set him up further, so he put on a painful expression and said bitterly: "They really deserve to die, I I will get to know the prince with my own hands, and let the dog emperor taste what it is like for a white-haired man to give a black-haired man."
Ji Qi found a resonance with Shu Xingmi, he looked into Shu Xingmi's eyes, his expression became more indignant, the skin on his face twitched slightly: "I not only want him to experience the pain of bereavement, but also want him to experience the pain of subjugation." If he hadn't taken a fancy to me back then and insisted that I enter the palace to serve him, how could I have lived such a life of inhumanity! He would still humiliate me like that at night... that's all, "Ji Qi closed his eyes and took a deep breath, unwilling to think about it: "All this will end soon. He has always been diligent in governing and loving the people, and attaches great importance to the country and the country. Watching the iron hooves break through his mountains and rivers."
Wait, what happened between the chief executive and the emperor...?
"Falling on me", "serving in the palace", "molest|humiliating at night"... Shu Xingmi felt that the amount of information was a bit large.
... The emperor is forcibly robbing civilian men, this is it.
Moreover, he said that he wanted the emperor to taste the taste of subjugation. Could it be that his ultimate goal is to destroy the country?
Shu Xingmi actually asked his master that his country's military strength is the best among all countries, one of the best, and it should be as stable as Mount Tai.
Shu Xingmi had never thought about the reason for this.
Could it be that Ji Qi was the key person who led to the subjugation of the country?
"I share the same goals with you," Shu Xingmi gave a deep salute, his eyes full of firm and rebellious determination: "I want to be your right-hand man and discuss big plans with you!"
In any case, Shu Xingmi must know Ji Qi's plan to subdue the country. If this person succeeds, Shu Xingmi and the prince will be equivalent to stepping on the guillotine, repeating the tragedy of the original world, and maybe they will have to travel back and start over again. Go through the plot.
Absolutely not, the price is too high.
Among the six lifetimes, the one Shu Xingmi was most unwilling to re-experience was this one. The feeling of being eunuched was too painful and uncomfortable, and he couldn't afford to lose. In the previous five lifetimes, he had never experienced such great psychological pressure.
So Shu Xingmi used his excellent acting skills just to deceive Ji Qi's plan.
Seeing Shu Xingmi's sincere expression, Ji Qi almost agreed, but still maintained his rationality, and helped him up with a smile: "No hurry, I have already made arrangements for this matter, no additional manpower is needed, three months In the meantime, the imperial palace must be reduced to ruins, just like this desolate garden... You only need to help me get rid of the crown prince to avoid future troubles, and I will definitely benefit from you."
