Ji Xingzhi smiled mysteriously, pretending to be a person who could not reveal the secret, and said in a mysterious way: "This is an item that can ward off evil and avoid disaster, eunuch. Once you put it down, you must not take it down, otherwise, disaster will surely come."
When the eunuch heard this, he believed it and said, "Yes."
After finishing the work, the eunuch repeatedly warned the palace maids not to touch this thing when cleaning, otherwise they would be severely punished. The palace maids and eunuchs obeyed with fear and trepidation.
Seeing the eunuch and the palace maids being so cautious, Ji Xingzhi almost couldn't hold back her laughter.
After breakfast, Ji Xingzhi asked the eunuch to prepare the carriage to leave the palace.
Normally, when Ji Xingzhi left the palace, she was accompanied by the Grand Eunuch and Liu Yang, but Liu Yang... he had been busy taking care of the people brought out from the Jiang family mansion recently, so the Grand Eunuch arranged two other people to be responsible for protecting Ji Xingzhi's safety.
A plain and simple carriage, a brown horse, but the number of people standing beside it has changed from one to two.
Looking at the two tall, sturdy-looking men standing beside the carriage from afar, Ji Xingzhi asked in a low voice, "Are these two also the Imperial Guards?"
The eunuch nodded and said, "Yes. The one on the left is Zhou Zheng, and the one on the right is Wu Fang. They are also outstanding among the Ming Guards."
Ji Xingzhi nodded and looked around, then came to a conclusion: "Eunuch, I discovered something."
The eunuch frowned and asked, "What's the matter?"
Ji Xingzhi said seriously, "Wu Fang and Zhou Zheng are both handsome."
The Grand Eunuch: “…”
Emperor, can we not make a fuss?
——
After leaving the palace, Ji Xingzhi first took the eunuch and others to find Liu Yang. She didn't expect to see such a shocking scene.
In Ji Xingzhi's eyes, and even in the eyes of everyone, Liu Yang is a man of iron will, a little stubborn and taciturn, but absolutely loyal.
But such a person would actually kneel in front of a child just to put shoes on the child.
Liu Yang's vigilance seemed to have relaxed a lot. Normally, he could spot unusual people from a distance, but this time, he unusually did not notice the arrival of Ji Xingzhi and his group.
Perhaps it was also because Ji Xingzhi and the others had no ill intentions.
Through the crack in the door, Ji Xingzhi could clearly see the scene inside: a little child was sitting on the bed with sleepy eyes, rubbing his eyes with his little hands.
Liu Yang knelt on his knees in front of the bed, holding the child's feet in one hand and a shoe in the other. He skillfully put the shoe on the child and said in an almost doting tone, "Don't stay up so late in the future, or you won't have anything to eat."
The tone was slightly reproachful, but more gentle.
Zhou Zheng and Wu Fang's eyes widened in shock, and they looked at each other in bewilderment. Was the person in the room really the cold-faced Lord Liu? Had they seen a ghost? How could Lord Liu be so gentle?
Every Royal Guard knew clearly that Liu Yang, the emperor's personal bodyguard, had no official position but considerable power. Except for the old men who had followed the Grand Emperor in the past, all the other Royal Guards were under the control of Liu Yang.
Especially when it comes to training, Liu Yang is known for being ruthless and cold-blooded.
Even the eldest eunuch was surprised. How come Liu Yang had become a completely different person?
The eunuch was about to reach out and push the door open, but Ji Xingzhi quickly raised his hand, shook his head slightly, glanced into the room, turned around and left.
Seeing this, the eunuch also followed, and Zhou Zheng and Wu Fang followed closely behind.
Liu Yang continued to chat and laugh with the child as if he didn't notice, and was as friendly as the older brother next door.
