Chapter 6 Gossip
Guo Xuanwu was amused in his heart, pretending to be mysterious and whispered: "I'll tell you a big secret. One night, I sneaked into the second manager's bedroom. There was a secret room in his bedroom, and there were some bottles in it.
There were bottles and jars filled with pills, powders, etc., which were really fun. Just when I was having fun, the emperor suddenly came in, and I took a peek through the crack in the door of the secret room. Guess what?
What's wrong?"
Guo Xuanwu deliberately betrayed him.
"My little ancestor, what happened? You should tell me quickly."
When they heard the key point, they suddenly got stuck. Baoluo and Wanxiang were so anxious that they scratched their heads.
Unexpectedly, Guo Xuanwu spread his hands and said seriously: "If you want to hear gossip, you can, just follow the rules!"
The two of them were stunned for a moment, but they really couldn't resist the temptation, so they reluctantly handed over all the carved dragon gold coins that were still warm in their hands.
The default rule among eunuchs: you must buy gossip.
"These are not enough! This is the emperor's exclusive news, and it is very valuable!" Guo Xuanwu's little finger pointed at the pockets where the two of them kept their money.
Baolu Hewanxiang, you look at me, I look at you, they all showed expressions of admiration, thinking: "You know how to sell information to make money at such a young age, how can you pay it off when you grow up? Isn't that a money-greedy master?"
Now you are with the right master!"
For exclusive information, the two of them risked their lives and took out all the money in their pockets, a total of three hundred and twenty taels.
After collecting the money, Guo Xuanwu shook his head and said: "This little money is still not enough, it is only enough to listen to half of the story."
"My little ancestor! Just spare us. That's all. We are penniless now!" the two cried.
"Tch! Don't think I don't know!" Guo Xuanwu pointed at their feet, "Take off your shoes for me!"
The two were completely shocked and took off their shoes with a wry smile. Sure enough, there were five or six silver notes in the soles of each person's shoes.
After draining the two of them, Guo Xuanwu said with satisfaction: "Seeing that you are so sincere, I will tell you!"
The two quickly brought their ears closer, almost touching Guo Xuanwu's face.
"Guess what? After the emperor came in, he angrily said to the second manager, 'You must closely monitor the concubines in the harem. Don't let me become a cuckold!', I think this is 'cuckolding'.
'Old turtle' is definitely not a good word, so you use it to scold the general?"
"and after?"
"Then? Then the emperor left."
…
Bao Luo and Wan Xiang both felt regretful. All their money had been squeezed out. They thought they could get some exclusive information so that they could report it to the chief manager Jiu Qian Sui and earn back their money with profits, but it didn't work.
I thought I heard this news.
But their expressions soon changed. This involved the emperor's privacy, and it also related to whether the concubines in the harem were having an affair. If this was revealed, it would be a serious crime against the Nine Clan, and his head would be chopped off ten times.
not enough.
"Little master, who else have you told this about?" Bao Luo asked in a panic.
"Of course I didn't tell anyone about such a secret thing. If it weren't for the sake of money, you two wouldn't be so lucky!"
"That's good." The two of them wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads in unison.
Next, Baoluo and Wanxiang both knelt down, kowtowed as if pounding garlic, and said in a tearful tone: "My little master! My little ancestor! Please don't tell others what happened just now, we don't have any
You are so noble, if others find out, then... we didn't hear anything, just pretend it didn't happen, okay?"
Guo Xuanwu laughed out loud in his heart, but with an impatient look on his face, he waved his hands and said: "Okay, okay, I know! I really don't understand your world. I just asked you for help."
Grandpa sued grandma and spent money to beg me to tell me, but now I have to pretend that I didn’t say anything. It’s really boring. Let’s all go, I’m going to bed!”
"Thank you, little master! Thank you, little ancestor!" The two of them bowed their bodies and walked backwards out of the room as if they were receiving an amnesty.
Bao Luo and Wan Xiang were working together in the yard. They wanted to earn back the money stolen by Guo Xuanwu. Today, Guo Xuanwu was beaten by the general, and his brave deeds of fighting back without saying a word had to be reported to the chief manager immediately. This
The bounty is naturally indispensable.
After discussing it, the two of them quickly ran to find Guo Bin.
In the evening, Guo Xuanwu secretly pulled Sun Hai into the rockery cave in the imperial garden.
"Ouch! It hurts me to death!"
Guo Xuanwu grinned with a painful expression on his face: "That damned general Wei Xi beat me so hard that I still can't eat!"
"Boss, you are so brave today, you even dare to tease the general!" Sun Hai gave a thumbs up.
"Your Highness, I'll give you something good to try!" Guo Xuanwu handed a piece of black date sweet cake to Sun Hai's eyes.
This black date sweet cake was specially bought by Guo Bin from the famous sweet cake shop "Aftertaste Long".
Sun Hai took a few bites and immediately praised it: "It's so delicious! This is much better than the pastries made in the palace! Where did you get it?"
"I bought this from the old shop 'Huiweichang' outside the palace. The boss is an old man. I heard that he has been making pastries all his life. The house is full of all kinds of delicious pastries! Your Highness, is it delicious?
?There are some more here, all left to you!"
Sun Hai looked envious: "Boss, I really envy you. You are so free and can run outside the palace to play. I can't do it. I am bored to death in this palace every day. Otherwise, I will die like this."
, you can sneak me out secretly one day, let’s go to that ‘Long Aftertaste’, I want to eat up all the pastries in his room!”
"Took the bait!"
Guo Xuanwu chuckled, patted his chest and said, "No problem, this matter will be taken care of by the boss! But you have to listen to me. You can do whatever I want you to do."
Sun Hai is only eight years old, so how can he be so fancy? He is just a foodie, and his mind is filled with pastries.
He glanced at the basket of cakes next to Guo Xuanwu with greedy eyes, then patted his chest and said with a righteous look: "You are the boss! Of course I will listen to you!"
"This is a good brother!" Guo Xuanwu patted Sun Hai on the shoulder, "Here, have another piece!"
There was laughter in the rockery cave...
Early the next morning, in the backyard of the palace, Fengyi Palace, and the Queen Mother's bedroom.
Queen Mother He is nearly seventy years old, but she is still radiant and radiant, without any signs of aging. At this moment, she is sitting on the dragon and phoenix chair at the top of the hall, her eyes are blazing fire, and she is majestic.
His Highness Sun Hai nestled beside her, lying on her lap and crying loudly. Her tears soaked a large part of the Queen Mother's clothes.
At the bottom was Sun Hai's mother, Concubine Wang. She was lying on the ground in a gorgeous dress, crying like a pear blossom with rain in her eyes. She was dying and dying, which made people look like she couldn't bear it.
