Chapter 150 (1/2)
An Chengli glanced at An Zhe. ””You're not even giving me a cup of tea?””
When the tea was ready, he poured a cup for himself and leaned back with the cup in his hand.
He seemed to be very relaxed here, but in the palace, his back was always bent.
Humans were different from humans. An Zhe had seen Li Changlu bending his waist at all times, and he had also seen An Chengli bending his waist at all times.
There was a huge difference between these two people.
Li Changlu bent his body, purely bowing and kowtowing.
As for An Chengli, he bent his body as if he was on guard at all times.
””The tea is so rotten.””
””You're so rich, why don't you buy some good tea?””
An Xuan said, ””The more expensive the tea, the less tasty it will be. I like the stronger one.””
An Chengli smiled and shook his head. ””I won't enjoy my life even if I have money. I'll send someone to bring you a packet of new tea when I get back to the palace.””
””Every year, the people of the Gao Clan will buy good tea from the Da Xi and send it to the Heavenly Temple and the Embroidery Palace. Each time I get exposed to the light, I can get a few bags of it.””
He placed the teacup down, ””Now tell me about Li Changlu, you also know that us people entering the palace has something in common with entering the sect, and that is to get to know a master.””
In a place like the palace, it was much more dangerous than the sects.
It's easy to get things done with a master.
””Li Changlu and I entered the palace in the same year, and we are the same master.””
An Xuan was stunned. Just a moment ago, An Chengli said that Li Changlu was his master, and now he said that the two were the same master. It was obvious that there was some contradiction between them.
An Chengli seemed to be able to see through his doubts, and laughed at himself, ””But Li Changlu knows how to operate. When he follows master, he will make master happy.””
I was different. When I first entered the palace, I was very submissive. I didn't pay attention to words or expressions, nor did I kiss a.s.s. Thus, Master treated me coldly.
””Later, Master angered the empress dowager because of a major matter that he didn't do well.””
””What is it?””
An Zeng asked.
An Chengli smiled. ””You are really curious … When a prince arrived at the Da Xi that year, Big Yan naturally didn't dare to treat him slowly.””
During a banquet, my master accidentally spilled a gla.s.s of wine on the Prince's clothes.
””At that time, the empress dowager trusted my master. In the brocade palace, my master was the best.””
””However, no matter what happens, everyone has to see the occasion. That cup of tea ended my master's future and also ended his life.””
He felt that this wasn't a big deal. At that time, he bent down to wipe it off for His Highness Duke of Qin, but in the end, the prince said … that it was fine if the wine wasn't dirty.
You're dirty. Get out of here. ””
An Chengli shook his head. ””My master has always been spoiled by the empress dowager, so he was about to leave in a huff.””
As a result of this, the Empress sent for him to be beaten forty times in public.
Forty tablets, my master was originally arrogant because he was favored by others, so he was not very popular in the brocade palace.
Which of the torturing eunuchs had not been bullied by him?
””So, those forty plates, they're pretty much solid.””
””He is also an uncultivable person. After taking forty slabs, he has almost lost half of his life.
After all, those people knew they couldn't really beat him to death, or else the empress dowager wouldn't be able to explain herself.
When Li Changlu and I helped Master back, Master scolded us as we walked.
Li Changlu gave me a look that I did not understand at the time.
Li Changlu glared at me and scolded me for not looking for medicine for my master. ””
””I rushed out to find some medicine. When I came back, Li Changlu was crying while hugging his master's corpse. He was crying his heart out.
””I asked what was going on, he said that Master was humiliated and couldn't think of a way to commit suicide … Hehe, I was also a fool then. I clearly saw the big b.l.o.o.d.y hole on Master's forehead and the handprint on Master's neck, but I actually believed Li Changlu's words.””
””But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that it was Li Changlu who killed my master.
Later, the Empress Mother promoted Li Changlu.
””And Li Changlu knew that I had already understood what had happened that day, so he forced me to acknowledge him as my master. If he didn't, he said he would find a way to kill me.””
An Chengli said politely, ””Although I'm a bit stupid, I know when to lower my head.””
So I accepted Li Changlu as my master. Because of this, the people in the brocade palace mocked and ridiculed me for a whole year. ””
He asked, ””Do you know why they didn't mock me afterwards?””
Anjou shook his head.
An Chengli said, ””Because I became one of the King's people, he promoted me to be an imperial eunuch.””
An Chengli took a sip of tea. The tea was not good, so it was very bitter.
Because of the bitter tea, he felt that his mouth was no longer bitter. ””It just so happened that the Empress Mother needed to be placed beside the King. I knew that this was the only chance I had to break away from Li Changlu's control, so I ran to recommend it.””
I didn't expect the empress dowager to actually agree and let me go to the Heavenly Temple.
””Of course the king knew that I was sent by the empress dowager to keep an eye on him, so he intentionally promoted me, a young eunuch who didn't know anything, to be an imperial eunuch. Of course, he also acted for the empress dowager.””
An Chengli was thirsty, so he finished the tea in one gulp. ””Therefore, no one in the embroidered palace dared to mock me again.””
His posture was elegant, so elegant that even the harshest court official could find no fault with it.
An Zaiyue suddenly realized that a person could change so much.
The imposing aura of a young eunuch could be seen on his body.
An Chengli seemed to sense An Zhe's gaze, but he also misunderstood An Zhe's expression.
””I know you must be thinking why a person sent by the empress dowager like me has become the emperor's confidante … I know you're not stupid, so you only need to think carefully to understand the crux of this matter.””
””Because you don't want to die.””
An Chengli laughed out loud. ””Just say that you're not an idiot. That's right, I don't want to die.””
If I tell this to the fools, they must think, my G.o.d, that you betrayed the Empress and betrayed Li Changlu, they will kill you.
Yes, but that's what people think.
””However, I don't want to live in fear every day, nor do I want to die at Her Majesty's hands without knowing when.””
””What's the only way?””
