When Ren Yaoqi heard the voice, he quickly turned around and looked over.
Then she saw Xiao Jingxi walking towards them quickly. When he met her gaze, Xiao Jingxi smiled at her. Although it was a smile that was so faint that it couldn't be any fainter, it somehow made Ren Yaoqi feel relieved.
The two young eunuchs turned around and saw Xiao Jingxi. They recognized the Second Young Master Xiao and stopped subconsciously.
Eunuch Lu was so angry that he didn't even notice who was coming. He just waved his hand and said, "Wait until I catch this little bitch!"
Xiao Jingxi walked between Eunuch Lu and Ren Yaoqi. He seemed oblivious to Eunuch Lu's disheveled appearance, nor to the strange atmosphere. He smiled faintly and said, "Eunuch Lu, you're not planning on going to announce the decree like this, are you? Second Uncle, take Eunuch Lu downstairs to wash up and change clothes before going to Chengde Hall."
Eunuch Lu then saw the person who was speaking, Xiao Jingxi. He naturally recognized the Second Young Master Xiao and was somewhat wary of Xiao Jingxi. However, he was about to say something when Xiao Jingxi interrupted him in a gentle voice, "The incense table is ready. If you don't hurry up, the three incense sticks will be gone. If the imperial edict hasn't arrived by then, it would be disrespectful to His Majesty."
Generally speaking, there are many rules for reading the imperial edict. After the first eunuch appears, the person who receives the edict must prepare an incense table and light incense, and then wait for the eunuch who arrives later to read the eunuch's edict. The eunuch must finish reading the edict before the incense burns out, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the emperor.
Eunuch Lu looked down at himself. His outer shirt was soiled, so he couldn't go to read the imperial edict like that. He could only wash up and change his clothes first. If he wasted any time here, he might miss the time for the edict to be read.
So he stood up with the help of his disciple's hand and tried to move his foot. Fortunately, he had only twisted a meridian and it hurt a little, but no real bone injury.
He slowly resumed his demeanor as the chief eunuch beside the empress dowager and bowed to Xiao Jingxi: "Second Young Master Xiao, I'm sorry, sorry."
Xiao Jingxi smiled and nodded. He said to Xiao Heng, "Second Uncle, please accompany Eunuch Lu to wash up."
Xiao Heng agreed: "Please come this way, sir." Xiao Heng didn't want the matter to get out of hand at this moment. After all, he was the host and he was present at the scene. If the news got out, it would be embarrassing for him.
Xiao Jingyue winked at Xiao Jingxi and said, "The father-in-law just thought Fifth Miss Ren was pretty. He wanted to go up and take a closer look, and that caused some misunderstandings."
Xiao Jingyue was secretly laughing at Eunuch Lu in his heart. He was obviously a eunuch, but yet he was so lustful.
Unfortunately, Xiao Jingxi and he had nothing in common.
Eunuch Lu suddenly felt a chill on his neck. A chilling shiver crept up his spine. He subconsciously touched his neck, but felt nothing. Thinking he had caught a cold from sleeping in the inn last night, he ignored it.
Before being helped away, Eunuch Lu stared at Rong and the others with malice, especially when he was staring at Ren Yaohua, there was a clear meaning in his eyes that "this matter is not over yet".
Anyway, the relationship has been torn apart. Ren Yaohua was not afraid of him and glared back coldly.
