Chapter 272 You...you're actually a eunuch!
Chapter 272 You...you're actually a eunuch!
Ah!
Tianxiangzi was so frightened that she pulled her hand back!
Her face filled with terror, she swallowed hard and said:
"you…"
Chen Fan shook his head slightly upon seeing this.
Seeing that his scheme had been exposed, he confessed:
"Senior sister, you guessed right, my family is a eunuch..."
"Eunuch..." Tianxiangzi was completely dumbfounded!
She stood there stunned, unsure of what to say.
Recalling how she had just flirted with the eunuch, Tian Xiangzi suddenly felt a little uncomfortable!
No wonder the eunuch said it was for his own good!
So this was the truth!
"Junior brother... no..." Tianxiangzi, realizing what was happening, cried out in disbelief.
"My junior brother... how could he be a eunuch..."
"Senior sister, my family is like a eunuch," Chen Fan said, straightening his back.
"Are you still planning to become my Daoist partner?"
Upon hearing the inquiry.
Tianxiangzi subconsciously took two steps back!
A look of hesitation crossed her face as she whispered:
"I...I don't know how to answer you..."
"I understand..." Chen Fan said, feigning sadness as he turned his back.
"Let's go back... This is a secret between you and me, don't let anyone else know!"
Tianxiangzi remained silent!
Looking at the eunuch who had turned his back to her, she seemed hesitant to speak.
But after much thought, she gritted her teeth and said:
"I'll come to see you in a few days..."
The words had barely left his mouth!
Tianxiangzi rode his sword and soared into the sky!
Watching the departing figure, Chen Fan's lips curled into a smile!
He was not saddened by revealing his identity as a eunuch.
On the contrary, he was quite happy that the woman could leave!
Chen Fan felt quite relieved.
Otherwise, if he continues to lie, he really doesn't know how he'll end up in the end.
It would be better to let this woman give up!
With a thousand thoughts swirling in his mind, Chen Fan smiled and then turned and walked towards the imperial city!
It just so happens that this time is close to the hour of Mao (5-7 AM).
The sky was just beginning to lighten.
Pedestrians were already going in and out of the city gate!
Having lost his cultivation due to being drunk, Chen Fan could only walk into the city.
Passing through the city gate.
He made his way to Chang'an Street.
Look around.
The streets were bustling with people at this time.
There are vendors selling vegetables, people buying vegetables, and vendors selling steamed buns and flatbreads—everything you could want.
Chen Fan, weaving through the crowd, appeared unremarkable.
With a smile on his face, he looked around and soon arrived at the old noodle shop.
Chen Fan randomly picked a spot.
After ordering two ounces of plain noodles, I started eating breakfast.
Perhaps it was because I was too tired last night.
Chen Fan felt that one bowl of noodles wasn't enough, so he asked for another.
He was finally full after eating two bowls of noodles.
嗝…
After letting out a burp, Chen Fan stretched his back.
Then we paid the bill and left!
……
Winter goes and spring comes.
As nature comes back to life, the trees in the Imperial Garden are beginning to take root and sprout!
A gentle breeze carries a faint, earthy fragrance.
Chen Fan, who was lying in the garden of the Imperial Horse Stables basking in the sun, felt happy after smelling it!
Having not left the palace for almost three days, he was starting to feel a bit like going out for a stroll!
While looking at it.
Chen Fan also planned to go and find the horse!
Otherwise, if we let that guy run wild outside, he'll probably really become a wild horse in the future!
"Godfather, have some tea..."
Just then, the little stool came over.
With a smile on his face, he respectfully offered a teacup!
"Thank you for your thoughtfulness..." Chen Fan smiled, his eyes narrowed.
"This is what a son should do," said Xiao Dengzi, massaging Xiao Dengzi's shoulders and back.
"Godfather, the Yongle Emperor has left the palace. Do you want to go and see him?"
Chen Fan shook his head slightly.
I'm convinced that the Yongle Emperor was ambitious and had huge ambitions!
In addition, this man's civil administration and military prowess are comparable to those of the Hongwu Emperor!
Now, with Jianwen strategizing for them!
Chen Fan had no idea what heights the Great Abyss Dynasty would reach in the future!
However, having lived through four dynasties, he had long seen through many things.
As long as he doesn't foolishly get involved in these things, no trouble will come knocking on his door!
"Our family is going out for a couple of days," Chen Fan said, standing up.
"The Imperial Stables are counting on you..."
The little stool nodded slightly.
Watching his godfather's departing figure, his face was full of respect.
After the person left.
The little stool then returned to the kitchen.
He chopped wood every day, and a small mountain had already been piled up in his backyard.
But they still felt there weren't enough small stools.
He arrived here and continued chopping wood...
……
Leave the kitchen.
Chen Fan walked towards the Imperial Horse Stable.
With his hands behind his back, he had a big smile on his face.
When they encountered some palace maids and eunuchs along the way.
Chen Fan, who was quite interested, did not think about avoiding it.
Instead, he pretended to be a fellow traveler, chatting and laughing along the way.
While joking and bantering with these people.
Chen Fan learned quite a bit about what was happening in the palace.
For example, a certain imperial concubine is pregnant again!
Either the Yongle Emperor has been taking medicine frequently lately, and it seems that his health is not good!
Another issue is that the crown prince has not yet been decided, and there has been much speculation both inside and outside the court about who the new candidate will be!
Having been a eunuch for over sixty years, Chen Fan was no longer surprised by these things!
After finding a moment to leave, he made his way to the library!
Look closely.
The library now has many more books.
Chen Fan, who was just worried about having no books to read, smiled.
I couldn't help but pick up a book or two and start reading.
Perhaps I was too engrossed in reading.
As a result, Chen Fan didn't even notice when someone came to the library!
That was a five or six-year-old boy!
He was dressed in fine silk robes, and had a handsome face with red lips and white teeth.
Upon closer inspection, the child has a prominent forehead and a bright forehead, giving him the appearance of someone with great potential!
"Which palace eunuch are you...?"
Hearing the little boy's question.
Chen Fan smiled and closed the book, saying:
"I am the eunuch on duty here, and who are you...?"
"I am...I am Xiao Ju..." Xiao Ju said timidly.
"Who is Xiao Ju? I've never heard of him!" Chen Fan shook his head slightly.
"I am the son of the deposed crown prince..." Xiao's face turned bright red after hearing this!
Abandoned prince!
Chen Fan suddenly realized.
I still remember that the crown prince of the Yongle Emperor acted perversely and actually thought of conspiring with the Jianwen Emperor to rebel!
But what that person never expected was that the uncle and nephew had been secretly colluding, making him a cannon fodder!
Thinking about these things.
Chen Fan gently patted Xiao Ju's head:
"You seem afraid of our family..."
"I...I'm not afraid..." Xiao Ju said through gritted teeth.
"What's so scary about eunuchs..."
Chen Fan smiled but remained silent.
He could tell the child was lying, so he handed him a book and said:
"Read books, reading can make you stronger..."
"Really?" Xiao Ju's eyes lit up.
"I want to become stronger, but I won't read this book; I'll find other books to read..."
Watching the figure running towards the library.
Chen Fan didn't stop him.
After all, everyone has the right to read books and the choice to read different books.
He has no right to stop it!
However, Chen Fan quickly lost his composure!
Xiao Ju ran all the way up to the pavilion.
After searching high and low, he actually found the Plum in the Silver Vase!
You should know that this is Chen Fan's treasured possession!
He usually relies on this book to relieve his fatigue when he is tired or sleepy!
With a dark expression, Chen Fan immediately ran up to the attic and reached out his hand, saying:
"You can't read this book... Give it back to us!"
