Chapter 9 The Desire for Power

The old eunuch fined Zuo Daoqi a month's salary, then ignored him and led his men straight to the small building.

Zuo Dodge followed to see.

At this moment, Aunt Qing no longer spoke softly as she did when talking to Zuo Daoqi. She was lowering her head and admonishing Concubine Wan Gui.

Yes, you are not mistaken.

An old palace maid was scolding the imperial concubine. This was naturally impossible in the palace, but this was the cold palace!

"Wan Linglong, you don't think that everything will be fine if you enter the cold palace, right? You have memorized a small book called "Shou Zhenlu" for ten years, and you still can't answer the questions fluently. You have to know that the cold palace will not last a lifetime.

It’s for idlers! Cut off half of Xuemei Garden’s next expenses!”

Zuo Daoqi had seen the so-called "Record of Keeping Virginity" before. It was in the imperial concubine's room and was as thick as a Xinhua dictionary.

But when he thought that the imperial concubine could not memorize it for ten years, Zuo Daoqi secretly thought that this seemingly wealthy imperial concubine was really stupid!

However, the imperial concubine is his noble person, so he naturally does not want the imperial concubine to be scolded, so he is about to speak.

But I heard the old eunuch say, "Aunt Qing, don't be angry, the imperial concubine knows the rules now, right, imperial concubine?"

There was a joking tone in his voice. It was already an unspoken rule to cooperate with the palace maids and blackmail the concubines in the cold palace.

Concubine Wan Gui's face changed slightly. She naturally knew the greed of these low-level people in the palace, but she had no money. A few days ago, because the previous nun bullied Ji Lingshu, the imperial concubine couldn't bear it and spent money to buy that nanny's life.

!

The money from my parents' house has not been sent yet, so I didn't expect that this inspection would turn out to be the two most greedy guys in front of me.

"You two, please give me a few days' grace. There is no money left in the garden."

As soon as Concubine Wan Gui's pleading words came out, Zuo Daoqi knew that something bad had happened!

How could these two greedy brats in front of them miss such a good opportunity for blackmail?

Sure enough, when the old eunuch heard this, he narrowed his eyes slightly and raised a curved hook at the corner of his mouth, like a falcon about to hunt for prey. "You are talking nonsense. Your Majesty has a noble status. Could it be that she deceived my brother and sister into being illiterate?"

Concubine Wan Gui's expression showed panic, "You...what do you want?"

Aunt Qing said at this time, "Lingshu is your lifeblood, the empress. Of course we won't touch it, but the empress..."

The two people behind her stepped forward, as if they were going to search her body, but their posture was not very similar.

Concubine Wan Gui had never encountered such a posture. She tried her best to resist, and the two young eunuchs behind the old eunuch also stepped forward to help, and actually wanted to remove the concubine's clothes in public.

Zuo Dodge couldn't bear it anymore.

"You are so presumptuous! Are there any kings or saints in your eyes?"

Aunt Qing squinted her eyes and looked at Zuo Daoqi, "Xiaoluzi, I thought you were pretty and I wanted to promote you, but I didn't expect you to go against the envoy for the sake of deposing the concubine. You are really brave!"

The old eunuch smiled and said, "Aunt Qing, I have told you a long time ago that this little way offended Mr. Wang, and you still have to take him back. We have seen this kind of person a lot, and he only has that face.

It's of some value, and grandma likes it. When he dies in a few days, our family will have his face cut off for you and sent over."

The Cold Palace is really too remote. It is said that since the founding of the Jin Dynasty, no emperor has ever been to the Cold Palace. I don’t know how many concubines and princes were forced to death here, and the emperor has never been seen to ask.

These people are already fearless!

Zuo Daoqi stared at the old eunuch, "Father-in-law, do you know my identity?"

The old eunuch chuckled lightly, "Oh? You are a slave, what else do you think you are? Tell us and let our family listen?"

"It seems that my father-in-law really doesn't know what I did in the past. Although I broke the saint's porcelain and entered this cold palace, I was the ninth prince's companion to study. The saint authorized the ninth prince to take me away when he came to Beijing for mourning in three years.

Go, if I want to kill a few people then, I think the Ninth Prince will agree!"

This old eunuch had been in the cold palace for who knows how many years. The news had long been blocked. All he knew was that Zuo Daoqi not only offended the saint, but Wang Bingyi's son Wang Lu personally came to the cold palace to torture Zuo Daoqi.

But I didn't expect Zuo Daoqi to have such a background.

He knew that the Ninth Prince was the youngest son of the emperor, the most favored, and the last to become a vassal.

The old eunuch looked at Zuo Daoqi's face and his expression changed. Wang Lu didn't tell him that Zuo Dalu had this background. If what Zuo Dalu said was true, then he couldn't afford to offend the Ninth Prince.

Aunt Qing interjected at this time, with a smile brewing in the wrinkles on her face, "I didn't expect Eunuch Zuo to have such a relationship with the Ninth Prince. Before I entered the cold palace, I even hugged the Ninth Prince. It was really a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple.

, since Eunuch Zuo is here, let’s go to the next house, Mr. Wang, and Eunuch Zuo will tell the imperial concubine how to do it.”

The old eunuch was cautious and weighed the pros and cons in his mind. He understood that Wang Lu and Zuo Daoqi's affairs were not something he could interfere with, so he borrowed a donkey and went downhill, smiling and saying, "What Aunt Qing said is true, so I will do as you say."



Ji Lingshu never came out of the house. She was soft on the outside but strong on the inside. She had offended the patrolling eunuch before, so Concubine Wan Gui refused to let her out every time.

At this time, seeing the group of people leaving, he walked out from the corridor on the second floor, holding a wooden stick in his hand.

Concubine Wan Gui walked to Zuo Daoqi and took his hand, "Thanks to Xiaoluzi today."

"What did the empress say? I said that every time I see the empress, I think of my mother I have never met. Naturally, I can't bear to see my mother being humiliated in front of me." Although Zuo Daoqi lowered his head, his peripheral vision showed that

Pay attention to the look on this noble concubine's face.

The imperial concubine's face was indeed moved. She had been in this cold palace for so many years, and she had long been accustomed to the warmth and coldness of people. Xiaoluzi valued love and righteousness. The thought in her heart came to her mind again, but she looked up at Ji Ji on the second floor.

Lingshu just held Zuo Daoqi in his arms, "Good boy."

Leaving the warm and soft embrace of the imperial concubine, he watched the imperial concubine twist her hips and go upstairs to find Ji Lingshu.

Zuo Dodge's eyes turned cold again.

Power!

The scene just now made his desire for power grow stronger and stronger. Just now, he was able to scare away the arrogant patrol eunuch in the cold palace.

As long as he has power, all the problems that trouble him and Xuemeiyuan's problems can be easily solved.

Power doesn’t even need to be great…

Zuo Daoqi made a decision in his mind and quickly stood up and walked outside Xuemei Garden.

He is going to try to contact the Eighth Prince and even the Queen Mother!

The Queen Mother has not been deposed, but she just likes to stay in the cold palace to accompany the Eighth Prince. As long as the Queen Mother nods, he can easily gain some power in the cold palace.

He was distracted all the way and walked in a hurry, and unknowingly he reached Ningdan Garden.

Before he passed through the arch, he felt a sharp and sharp energy, and the hairs all over his body stood up, as if there was a peerless ferocious beast in the garden, roaring at him!
