Chapter 117 Inquiring for Information
"Your Highness Prince Jin!" Just when Li Zhi was feeling sad for Wu Zetian, the voice of the eunuch came from outside.
"Didn't I tell you not to disturb me? Do you want to be alone for a while?" Li Zhi said angrily.
"Your Highness Prince Jin! His Highness the Crown Prince has ordered someone to bring some nourishing things to Your Highness. Take a look..." The eunuch's voice came again.
"Leave the things and tell my eldest brother that I am resting! I appreciate his kindness." Li Zhi said, but he felt warm in his heart. Although he lost his sister, he still cared about his father and brother.
"Yes!" The eunuch outside took the order, and then the sound of footsteps was heard, gradually fading away.
"How is it? What did His Royal Highness Prince Jin say?" Wang Quan saw the eunuch of Prince Jin coming and immediately stepped forward to ask.
"His Royal Highness said that he appreciated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince's kindness! He was not feeling well and needed to rest! We accepted the supplements sent by the Crown Prince! Please go back and greet my Highness!" said the eunuch, asking him to accept the things sent by the Crown Prince and then leave.
But Wang Quan held him back and said, "Don't worry, it's me! I haven't seen you for a long time, and I want to chat with you. Don't be in a hurry to leave and talk."
"It's really unfortunate today. I still have to serve Prince Jin. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if Prince Jin can't find me when he wakes up." The eunuch stretched out his hand and moved Wang Quan's hand away.
Wang Quan took the opportunity to get closer, quickly glanced around, and then stuffed some money into the eunuch's hand at lightning speed.
The eunuch immediately put his hands into his wide sleeves, and smiled, his round face wrinkled, and his eyes were half-closed.
"Prince Jin will not wake up soon after resting, so I will chat with you for a while, just for a while!" said the eunuch.
"Don't worry! I won't delay your work! How have you been recently?" Wang Quan said with a smile.
I don't believe that I can't get anything out of him after accepting his kindness. He came to deliver supplements and to gather information.
He came to inquire about the situation of Prince Jin. As a personal eunuch beside the prince, he always has to share the worries of his master!
"I've been living pretty well lately! I'm relaxed and at ease. Prince Jin is a friendly person and treats us servants well! How about you? You're working in the East Palace, not bad, right?" said the eunuch. Seeing that he had gained some weight, he knew that he was living a comfortable life.
"How can you be as relaxed as me? I'm also very busy. I just took the opportunity to take a break while delivering supplements to His Royal Highness Prince Jin." said Wang Quan.
The two chatted for a while, and then Wang Quan turned the topic to Li Zhi and said, "Prince Jin is not feeling well. I heard that it is a recurrence of an old illness, but the headache has come back again!" "
This headache is a fatal disease. We feel pain just by looking at it, let alone Prince Jin himself."
"But, I'm very curious! Since Prince Jin has a recurrence of an old illness, why don't you ask the imperial physician to come and treat him?"
"Haha!" The eunuch laughed and said, "How can Prince Jin have a headache? Why does he need to find an imperial physician?"
The master of his own house knows whether he is sick or not.
"That's not right! Apart from the headache, why have I never heard that Prince Jin has any other old illnesses?" Wang Quan looked puzzled.
"How could the King of Jin have a relapse of his old illness? He just said it casually!" The eunuch said without any doubt.
Wang Quan was puzzled. Why would the King
of Jin pretend to be sick? Wang Quan felt that this was a good opportunity. He would get the answer from the eunuch in front of him. "That can't be! Why would the King of Jin pretend to be sick for no reason?" Wang Quan looked surprised.
"It's hard to say. After all, this is the King of Jin's business. We, as servants, can't guess the master's intentions at will." The eunuch said.
Wang Quan took out some more money from his pocket and quietly stuffed it into the eunuch with a painful look on his face. In order to get information from him, it was worth spending some money.
You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child.
"According to my guess, this matter is related to the Wu Cairen who was sentenced to death by His Majesty." The eunuch whispered.
Wang Quan was even more confused now. How could this be related to Wu Cairen?
"Don't be so fussy, tell me what's going on right now." Wang Quan said anxiously.
"Don't be anxious! Don't be anxious!" The eunuch laughed and said, "You don't know! My Prince Jin and Wu Cairen have a close relationship. Usually! Wu Cairen is always by Prince Jin's side."
"Well, since Wu Cairen was sentenced to death by His Majesty because of the rumors, Prince Jin has been in a low mood and has been hiding away alone to worry."
"Are you telling the truth? Are you not lying to me?" Wang Quan asked.
"Why would I lie to you? Don't you see who I am? I am the eunuch of King Jin. The story between King Jin and Lady Wu is absolutely true. Don't tell it to others casually." The eunuch whispered. "
I understand, I understand! Don't worry! I know what to say and what not to say."
"I won't talk to you anymore! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is waiting for me to report back! Goodbye!" Wang Quan bowed.
He was in a hurry to go back and tell the Crown Prince this secret. He believed that this was a valuable piece of information that would please the Crown Prince.
"Okay! Then I won't see you off. I'll see you back!" The eunuch also bowed, took people to collect the items and went back.
He estimated that King Jin should have recovered by now, and it was just right for him to go back.
Wang Quan took people back to report to Li Chengqian.
After returning to Li Chengqian's palace, Wang Quan couldn't wait to run to Li Chengqian.
"You're back!"
At this time, Li Chengqian was practicing calligraphy on a piece of white paper. Seeing Wang Quan coming back, Li Chengqian casually looked up and glanced at him, then continued to practice his calligraphy.
Li Chengqian's calligraphy was ordinary, compared to Li Er's calligraphy, it was simply a world of difference, incomparable.
"My dear! I have something important to report!" Wang Quan said, he couldn't wait to tell the prince in front of him the news.
"No hurry! It's not too late to talk about it later! Don't ruin my interest, don't let some trivial things ruin my interest in writing." Li Chengqian said.
The prince was not in a hurry, but Wang Quan was!
But the prince had spoken! As a eunuch, he couldn't disturb the prince's interest. If he made the prince unhappy, he would be in trouble.
One was very excited and immersed in writing, while the other was very anxious and didn't dare to disturb Li Chengqian's writing.
This is a typical example of the emperor not being anxious but the eunuch being anxious!
"Huh!" Li Chengqian exhaled a breath of stale air, put down the brush in his hand, took the towel handed over by the palace maid and wiped his hands. Today's calligraphy practice was over.
Wang Quan also breathed a sigh of relief. He finally waited for Li Chengqian to finish practicing calligraphy. It was just in time to report the news from Prince Jin to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian picked up the teacup, opened the lid, blew gently, took a sip of tea, and then said: "Wang Quan, just tell me what you want to say!"
