Chapter 398: Beaten to Death
"Hahaha, if you are the new emperor, I am the previous emperor!"
Xixi didn't know what was so funny, "The late emperor is dead."
"So, I am not the previous emperor, and you are not the new emperor."
Xixi looked at the little eunuch and felt that she was about to be confused by him.
"Let me tell you, this rabbit was raised by Eunuch Wei and his men as a toy for the new emperor."
Xixi looked at the rabbit that had been gutted and skinned by the eunuch and said, "You killed it."
"Yeah, because I don't think the new emperor would like rabbits."
Xixi asked curiously, "Why?"
She likes it.
"The person who can become the new emperor must be very powerful."
Xixi nodded.
"How could such a powerful person like rabbits? He should like wild animals!"
Xixi thought about it and continued to nod, it made sense.
When the young eunuch saw that Xixi agreed with him so much, he raised his head even higher.
Because he was young, he was often bullied in the palace. If he hadn't been smart, it's hard to say whether he would be alive now.
Finally seeing a young palace maid who listened to him so well, the young eunuch patted his chest and said, "My name is Xiao Dongzi, what's your name?"
"Xixi."
"Xixi?" The young eunuch's eyes lit up, and he looked at Xixi and said, "My name is Xiaodongzi, and your name is Xixi. We are just the east and the west!"
Xixi blinked her eyes but did not explain. She would leave when it was dawn anyway.
"Xixi, from now on you are my sister. I will protect you in the palace!"
Xixi blinked her eyes, "You?"
"Don't underestimate me. I'm already a young eunuch in the imperial kitchen. When I grow up, I'll become a big eunuch like Zhu and Cao!"
"When the time comes, I'll be here, and no one will dare to bully you!"
"Maybe I can even help you get out of the palace!"
Xiao Dongzi knew that many palace maids had thought about being released due to their age, and Xixi should have thought about it too.
"If you become my sister, and I become a eunuch with a lot of money, I will buy you a house in the capital!" Xiao Dongzi said proudly, patting his chest.
Xixi only heard Xiaodongzi say that he could help her leave the palace.
"I want to leave the palace! I want to leave the palace now!"
Xiao Dongzi looked at Xixi who suddenly stood up and said, "Not now. I am... I am just a little eunuch now."
"Be the chief steward!"
"It's not that easy to be a steward! You don't know anything. It's already amazing that I can work in the imperial kitchen now." Xiao Dongzi said sullenly. He didn't want his new sister to look down on him.
Xixi looked at Xiaodongzi, who seemed unhappy, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Well, brother Xiaodongzi is very capable."
Xiao Dongzi is very easy to coax, and he immediately smiles happily when Xixi talks to him.
"I'm telling you, meeting me is a blessing you've accumulated for eight lifetimes. When tomorrow morning comes, I'll find someone to take you back."
"No!" Xixi moved aside and said to Xiaodongzi, "I want to go home. I miss my mother, my brothers and my younger brother."
Xiao Dongzi listened to Xixi's words and looked at her sympathetically and said, "Do you know why your father sold you?"
Xixi shook her head, then after realizing what was happening, she emphasized, "My dad didn't sell me out!"
Xiao Dongzi didn't care. Xixi's words just now explained a lot anyway.
"Believe me, your parents are not good people."
When Xixi heard Xiaodongzi scolding his parents, he was so angry that he pushed Xiaodongzi to the ground and said, "Bad guy, your parents are not good people!"
The little Dongzi who was pushed down was not angry. He patted the grass and ashes on his body and said: "My parents are not good people. If they were good, they would not have sent me to the palace to suffer."
"Isn't it good in the palace?"
Xiao Dongzi curled his lips and said, "Do you think it's good?"
When he was in the village, he could fight back at will if he was bullied, and he would beat up anyone who bullied him.
But after arriving at the palace, not to mention that he was stabbed and then managed to recover from his wounds and survive, anyone in the palace could bully him.
If he fought back, he would be beaten even harder. He didn't want to be bullied, so he had to climb up like other eunuchs.
Xiao Dongzi has set a goal for himself. He will stay in the imperial kitchen for a few years first, and then find an opportunity to show himself in front of the new emperor. It would be the best if the new emperor would like him and keep him by his side.
"Not good." Xixi said dejectedly.
The palace is not nice at all.
"Let me tell you, adults are all bad guys. Do you know why your parents didn't sell your brother and your younger brother, but only sold you?"
Xixi blinked and looked at Xiaodongzi.
"Because you are a girl, and girl dolls are worthless, so..."
"I'm very valuable!" Xixi interrupted Xiaodongzi again.
"Then tell me, why didn't your parents send your brothers to the palace, but only you?"
"My elder and younger brothers are not here."
Xiao Dongzi turned the rabbit over and said, "It's not that they're not here, it's that they can't bear to leave."
Xixi wanted to explain that this was not the case.
"I tell you, only children they don't like will be sent to the palace. They will keep the children they like with them and will not send them to the palace."
Xixi was stunned, and tears suddenly filled her eyes because she felt it made sense.
"Oh, don't cry." Seeing Xixi crying, Xiao Dongzi hurriedly put the rabbit there and came over to comfort her.
"There's no point in crying. Your parents are not around."
"Woo, woo, they really don't want me anymore!" Xixi didn't want to cry either, but what Xiaodongzi said was so right.
Why is it that only she has to enter the palace? Why don’t others have to enter the palace? She doesn’t want to enter the palace either.
Xiao Dongzi was comforting Xixi here, while the imperial guards, eunuchs and palace maids outside were about to turn the entire palace upside down.
Ji Sheng did not sleep all night. The Golden Crow was born, and he was busy for most of the night but could not find a child.
"Let's continue our search. If we still can't find the new emperor by the end of the morning hour, we'll have them executed, starting with the servants in Fengluan Palace."
"yes!"
Ji Sheng never just talks about killing people. After all the people in Fengluan Palace are beaten to death, the next ones will definitely be the imperial guards patrolling the palace.
Now his head was hanging on his belt, and the whole palace was filled with voices calling Xixi.
In the secluded side hall, Xiao Dongzi got up and looked at Xixi who was sleeping beside him. He pinched her little face and said with a smile, "Xixi, get up."
He has really good taste, the sister he found is so beautiful!
Xixi opened her eyes and a hint of confusion flashed across her eyes when she saw Xiaodongzi. Later, she recognized who was in front of her.
She yawned, "I still want to sleep."
"No, we should go on duty!"
Xiao Dongzi pulled Xixi up and said, "You are young, so your aunt may not care about you, but my master is very fierce. He is particularly vicious with his hatchet. If I don't go soon, he will beat me to death."
Xixi's eyes widened, "How fierce!"
"Very fierce!" Xiao Dongzi emphasized.
"But we have no shortage of food in the imperial kitchen. Come on, I'll take you to steal some delicious food!"
