Chapter 7 Feng Ming

“Didn’t those who used to deliver food use small cars?”

Su Chen asked puzzledly.

When the tall and thin little eunuch heard this, a look of pity flashed in his eyes: "He is no longer here. He was beaten to death on the spot because he bumped into Concubine Hua. From now on, I will be responsible for delivering meals..."

died?

Su Chen was stunned for a moment.

He had heard a little bit about Concubine Hua. He heard that she was the young daughter of Grand Master Hua, the Prime Minister of the dynasty. She was beautiful and had entered the palace almost a year ago.

Because she was favored by the emperor and supported by her mother-in-law in the court, she was very domineering and had great power in the harem. Not to mention a small eunuch, other concubines and even the queen were very tolerant of her.

Su Chen is also relatively familiar with "Little Car".

This guy is shrewd and has some business acumen, but at heart he is a timid person who would never dare to rashly confront the imperial concubine.

Mostly due to bad luck, I got unlucky and was made a scapegoat.

"In this deep palace, human life is the least valuable. Especially for little people like us, if we don't have enough strength to protect ourselves, we might one day be like ants, trampled to death..."

Su Chen shook his head.

There was a bit of sadness in his expression, as if the rabbit had died and the fox was sad.

He raised his head and glanced at the splendid Qionghua Palace in the distance, then withdrew his gaze and was not in the mood to chat. He took two food boxes, one large and one small, and returned to the yard.

"I'm going to deliver food to the noble man in the building first."

Su Chen put down his share with Eunuch Li, and then opened the door and entered the library.

But he saw a woman in white looking for something in the bookshelf.

The woman was about twenty-eighty-nine years old.

She has delicate features and a cold face. She is wearing a plain white dress with hanging black hair. She is not wearing any gold or silver jewelry, but she gives off a graceful and elegant feeling.

"Why is there a woman in this library?"

Su Chen was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the slightly open door on the second floor and suddenly realized.

This should be the noble man living on the second floor.

Su Chen always thought that the person living above should be an old master, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a cold and charming woman.

"Have you rearranged the books on this bookshelf?"

The woman saw Su Chen coming in and asked.

When Su Chen heard this, he lowered his head slightly and replied: "There are many books in the library. In the past, they were only stored according to general classification, which was very inconvenient to find. So I took the courage and arranged them according to the first letter of the book title, which makes it easier to search..."

"It's indeed a good idea. It makes it much easier to find books."

The woman nodded appreciatively, looked at Su Chen one more time, and said, "I don't have an appetite today, so there's no need to send me food. You can leave first."

"yes……"

Su Chen agreed and exited the library.

…

"Father, who is the man upstairs?"

While eating, Su Chen couldn't hold back after all and asked.

"Have you met her?"

Eunuch Li raised his eyebrows slightly.

After this year of getting along with him, he has come to know Su Chen's character better, he is smart and cautious, and not so curious.

At this time, he suddenly asked, he must have been in contact with that person.

Su Chen didn't hide anything and nodded.

"Ahem, actually it's not a secret that cannot be told. You have been in this palace for a year, and you have probably heard about the Fengming case..."

Eunuch Li poured a sip of wine into his mouth but did not speak clearly.

Su Chen frowned when he heard this: "Could that be the legendary one..."

"It's okay if you know."

Eunuch Li waved his hand to signal him not to continue talking about this topic.

Su Chen immediately remained silent, but was secretly surprised in his heart.

During the year in the palace, he had heard a lot of rumors and gossip from Xiao Chezi. The most impressive one was the Feng Ming case eight years ago.

I heard that it seemed that the eldest princess Chu Feng was planning to rebel and murder the prince, which caused quite a shock in the palace.

In the end, the eldest princess was ordered to be imprisoned by the emperor, and no one knew where she was imprisoned.

Unexpectedly, it was in the Kuiyuan Library.

"This is not a good thing. I heard that although the eldest princess is a female, she is quite talented and has great prestige in the court. She even threatened the prince's status for a time. If she still has the intention of revenge,

I'm afraid it will cause a lot of trouble in the future..."

Su Chen was worried.

He came to the Kuiyuan Library just for some peace and quiet and to grow up quietly. He never had any thoughts of clinging to the powerful.

I don't want to get involved in any power struggles.

I hope that Her Royal Highness, the eldest princess, can be more honest.

but.

This Eunuch Li, who was once the popular head eunuch Ji Yong, was also sent to this remote and deserted Kuiyuan. I am afraid that it has something to do with the Fengming case that year.

"Okay, even if the sky falls, it still can't hit you, the little eunuch."

Seeing his worried expression, Eunuch Li couldn't help but feel a little amused.

This kid is indeed different from ordinary people.

If he were an ordinary little eunuch, he would definitely want to try to get along with her after learning about the identity of the eldest princess. After all, she was also a royal bloodline. Even if she was not in power now, she could still burn the cold stove in advance and maybe live a prosperous life in the future.

But Su Chen had no such idea at all, and seemed to be a little conflicted.

"If this kid is not really indifferent to fame and wealth, then he has grand plans that ordinary people can't imagine."

Eunuch Li judged in his heart.

Then he raised his eyelids slightly, looked at Su Chen and said, "You have been practicing Taizu Changquan for a year, how is your progress?"

Su Chen knew that Eunuch Li was very powerful, so of course he didn't hide it and answered truthfully: "The villain's talent is mediocre. Although I have gained some gains after practicing this year, it is only limited to strengthening my body. I am still far away from the real introduction to martial arts."

…”

"It's pretty good to be able to practice to this level without anyone teaching you."

Eunuch Li shook his head: "However, in addition to talent, martial arts training cannot be accomplished with brute strength alone. You started too late, and your bones have already been finalized. Although your strength has increased a lot during this year of practice, there is no supplemental medicine.

Conditioning, leading to a shortage of essence and blood, is consuming your own potential, and something will happen sooner or later..."

Hearing this, Su Chen looked a little more serious.

Indeed, practicing martial arts is a high-intensity exercise that squeezes the body's potential into explosive power.

The loss of essence and blood in the body requires a large amount of nutrition to replenish it, and it also requires specialized drug conditioning.

Although he has the Tao Seed of Immortality and can have endless longevity, the Tao Seed has not really grown up. The rebirth of the severed limb has already consumed part of the power. It cannot provide him with more energy out of thin air while ensuring longevity.

Essence and blood nutrients.

Although even if you continue to practice like this, there will be no real deficit damage.

But the efficiency is definitely much slower than normal martial arts training.

This year, Su Chen also read a lot of medical books, but he was still far from ready to prepare body-building drugs. Moreover, even if he had a prescription, he didn't have the money to buy those expensive materials.

"My father-in-law is very knowledgeable and right. I wonder if there is any remedy?"

Su Chen humbly asked for advice.

Since the other party opened his mouth, he must have given some advice. He immediately stepped forward, picked up the jug, and poured Eunuch Li a glass of wine.

The latter did not pick up the wine glass.

He just said calmly: "It's boring to drink alone. Come, have a drink with us..."
