Chapter 107 As long as Xiaoxiao is happy
The little eunuch next to him was so excited that his eyelids were twitching. This courtyard was where the manager of the Ministry of Purchase, Eunuch Guo, lived. Except for his son, no one else could enter. Why did these two little ancestors dig here?
He stepped forward to persuade them, "Ninth Prince, the ground is dirty. Why don't you take Princess Anle to play somewhere else?"
Gu Huaian looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "Xiaoxiao, do you want to play here?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded, pointed to the palace maids and eunuchs next to her, and made a gesture of digging the soil.
Gu Huaian immediately said, "I understand. You want them to help you dig, right!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Gu Huaian with a smile: [Ninth brother is great! Gu Huaian immediately ordered :
"Get the tools and dig this up!"
Someone had already reported this to Eunuch Guo in secret. He hurried back and scolded the palace maids and eunuchs who served Gu Huaian:
"Are you blind? What kind of place is this? How can you let the master in? Isn't this a loss of status for the master? Don't you know the rules of the palace? Hurry up and take the Ninth Prince and Princess Anle back."
The eunuch said in embarrassment: "Eunuch Guo, it's not that we don't want to take the Ninth Prince and the Princess away, it's just that we can't let them go!"
Eunuch Guo stopped those who were digging and said humbly: "Ninth Prince, your servants will take you back. I took you and the princess to play somewhere else?"
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head like a wagon, gesticulating with her hands, and muttered, "Dig, dig!"
Gu Huaian didn't even raise his eyes, staring at Su Xiaoxiao's actions intently and said, "Xiaoxiao is going to play here, what are you doing standing there, didn't you hear the princess tell you to dig?"
Those little eunuchs were in a very difficult situation, they couldn't afford to offend either the Ninth Prince or Eunuch Guo.
Su Xiaoxiao sat on the ground, speaking viciously, gesticulating with her hands to ask them to dig.
Seeing Xiaoxiao was angry, Gu Huaian also got anxious: "Who is your master after all? Don't you listen to what I say?"
Eunuch Guo said coldly: "Ninth Prince, this is my residence. It is too bullying for you to ask the Queen to dig. I will go to the Queen to ask who allowed you to bring people to dig."
Hearing that he had to go to the Queen, Gu Huaian was a little scared. The Queen would never be soft-handed when she was in charge of him.
He discussed and said: "Xiaoxiao, why don't we go somewhere else to dig, the Yu Garden is easier to dig!"
Su Xiaoxiao angrily picked up the small animal hoe on the ground and started digging: [If you don't dig, I will! 】
Seeing that Su Xiaoxiao was going to do it himself, Gu Huaian didn't care about Eunuch Guo and the Queen. He picked up a hoe and started digging with Su Xiaoxiao.
Eunuch Guo's face changed drastically, and he said angrily: "Ninth Prince, if that's the case, don't blame me for being rude!"
He didn't care about the two little kids.
After that, he asked the two eunuchs beside him to pick up Gu Huaian and Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao, who had always been well-behaved, suddenly burst into tears and kept waving the hoe. The little eunuch was in pain from the beating, but he could do nothing.
Seeing Su Xiaoxiao crying, Gu Huaian was anxious and shouted heartbreakingly: "Let Xiaoxiao go, you scared her. This palace is mine, Xiaoxiao can dig wherever she wants!"
Eunuch Guo gritted his teeth to avoid saying anything disrespectful: "The palace is yours, but this yard belongs to the She family, send them out quickly!"
Su Xiaoxiao kept struggling, and Gu Huaian wanted to save Su Xiaoxiao, so he kept struggling, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
At this moment, a dignified voice sounded: "Let me see who is so arrogant and even set up a yard in the palace."
Hearing the emperor's voice, a large number of people in the yard knelt down, and the two people holding Su Xiaoxiao and Gu Huaian felt even more nervous, holding the two children in a weird posture and kneeling on the ground.
Gu Huaian has learned to be smart now, and shouted anxiously: "Father, they bullied Xiaoxiao, Xiaoxiao was scared and cried!"
The emperor treated Su Xiaoxiao better than any other prince, and he would definitely stand up for Xiaoxiao.
Sure enough, when the emperor heard that Xiaoxiao was wronged, his already dignified face became even more intimidating.
"What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, the Ninth Prince and the Princess are digging in the yard where I live. I was afraid that they would dirty the clothes of the two young masters, so I wanted to invite them to play somewhere else."
Gu Huaian said unwillingly, "You are talking nonsense. If Xiaoxiao doesn't leave, you can have someone throw me and Xiaoxiao out!"
Eunuch Guo defended himself unwillingly, "I am innocent. It's really because the servants' yard is too dirty. I was afraid that the two masters would get sick from the dirty things!"
Su Xiaoxiao didn't want to listen to their noise anymore, so she squeezed out a few tears and stretched out her hand to the emperor with a pouty mouth.
She looked so pitiful.
The emperor's heart ached with distress, and he took Xiaoxiao and comforted her, saying, "Xiaoxiao, don't cry. Uncle Emperor is here, who dares to bully you!"
Su Xiaoxiao cried aggrievedly, pointing to the big locust tree and said, "Wow... Wow..."
The emperor was anxious. Why did this child get more sad the more he coaxed her?
Gu Huaian was now the roundworm in Su Xiaoxiao's arms. He quickly translated, "Father, Xiaoxiao said to dig, dig the soil, dig the soil under the sycamore tree!"
The emperor looked at Su Xiaoxiao in surprise and said, "Xiaoxiao can speak now, do you want to dig the soil?"
Su Xiaoxiao nodded while sobbing.
The emperor was very happy. The first word Su Xiaoxiao said was "In the palace".
He waved his hand and said, "Dig, dig now. As long as Xiaoxiao is happy, dig three feet deep in this yard!"
The eunuchs received the imperial edict and rushed to get hoes and iron shovels. If they didn't have any, they would get wooden sticks. The emperor ordered them to dig.
Eunuch Guo relied on his power to exploit these eunuchs. None of these little eunuchs had not been bullied by him. Now they wanted revenge for their grudges and grievances. They not only dug under the sycamore tree, but also other places.
In a moment, the yard was in a mess.
Suddenly someone said, "Your Majesty, there is something under this tree!"
Eunuch Yang looked at the emperor and asked for permission to check.
He saw an altar under the tree. He instructed the eunuchs to carefully carry out the altar, and inside was a barrel of oil.
The emperor didn't even say anything, but with a sharp look, Eunuch Guo quickly explained: "Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I asked for this oil from the kitchen. I got a folk recipe that said that if you bury the oil for three years, it can cure chronic cold legs."
Eunuch Yang checked the oil and said: "Your Majesty, the color of this oil is not right, it is a bit green." The emperor's
heart skipped a beat. The queen seemed to have said that the source of the oil in the lotus pond could not be found, and the oil was also a bit green.
