On the other side, in the harem, Zhu Kai and Xu Miaoyun were having a pleasant chat with Zhu Di and his mother.

Suddenly, a little eunuch appeared outside the door, acting a little sneaky.

The eunuch guarding the door of Concubine Yi naturally stopped this guy outside.

"There are quite a few ignorant eunuchs who dare to barge in without even knowing where this place is. You look like you are new here?"

"I am not a new villain. I am here to see the prince."

"There are two princes in the room. Who are you looking for? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? How could the prince know someone like you?"

"I'm looking for His Highness Zhu Kai, and he asked me to come here. If you two miss the important task, don't blame His Highness Zhu Kai for being rude to you.

Go in now and inform them for me. It won't cause any loss to you. Why make things difficult for others? Be kind to others and you will be kind to yourself."

The young eunuch looked thin, but he spoke with full energy and eloquently.

These few words made the two young eunuchs present at a loss as to how to respond. He seemed to be quite knowledgeable.

"This little eunuch's words are unusual. It seems that he might really come to see His Highness Zhu Kai. Should we go in and inform him?"

"We must report it. Just like he said, it won't cause any loss to us. Besides, His Highness Zhu Kai is not like other people. Even if we report it wrongly, he won't blame us."

"Then what are you hesitating about? Go in and report quickly. His Highness Zhu Kai said that there is a skinny eunuch outside looking for him."

"By the way, since you are looking for His Highness Zhu Kai, what is your name? Tell us so that we can inform him."

"My name is not important at all. What's important is the purpose of my coming here. I'm waiting here anyway. If I really lie to you, you can immediately ask the guards to drag me out and beat me to death."

"I didn't realize that a little eunuch like you is so confident. Just because of your courage, I will go in and help you find His Highness Zhu Kai."

Afterwards, the guard at Concubine Yi's door walked straight in and came to the outside of the door. He didn't dare to go in directly, so he knelt outside the door and spoke.

"Your Highness, a skinny eunuch came to the door and said he wanted to see His Highness Zhu Kai.

I really couldn't persuade him, so I came here to report it. I wonder if His Highness Zhu Kai knows him. If he does, I won't embarrass him.

If His Highness Zhu Kai doesn't recognize this ignorant fellow, and he still dares to use the prince's name, then he must be dragged out and beaten to death by the guards."

Xu Miaoyun didn’t know whether what the people outside said was true or false. He looked at Zhu Kai with surprise.

"You don't have to be so confused. The eunuch outside is indeed looking for me. He looks inconspicuous, so he must be the food I asked him to prepare."

"Ingredients?"

"Yes, he is the eunuch in the imperial kitchen. Didn't I just say that? I want to show off my skills tonight and make something you haven't eaten before.

These ingredients are very special, so I picked a skinny little eunuch to prepare them.

I didn't expect this guy, who looks frail, to be so quick to respond. I'll go out and see what's going on. Miaoyun, stay here with the queen and chat for a while."

Concubine Yi thought about what Zhu Kai had just said and looked at Zhu Kai's expression.

At first he was a little suspicious of the identity of this little eunuch, but Xu Miaoyun was also confused. Then after hearing Zhu Kai's explanation, he didn't show any expression. He thought he was just preparing the ingredients normally.

"Your Highness Zhu Kai, it seems that you are really attentive to the Emperor and the Empress. You even prepared these foods yourself. I wonder what you have prepared. Why not let this little eunuch come in and answer your questions?"

"My Lady, you are pregnant now, and some ingredients are really inconvenient to eat. I am afraid that it will stimulate you and cause morning sickness.

Secondly, I was also worried that something else might happen, and some things would not sound pleasant.

Let's keep it secret for now. I'll give you a surprise when I'm done. I'll go out and take a look. I don't want anyone to let it slip in front of the Queen Mother."

Seeing that Zhu Kai didn't want to talk about these things in public, Concubine Yi had no choice but to respect his decision.

"Well, Your Highness Zhu Kai, since you have your own ideas, it is not convenient for me to say too much. You should go out and take a look at this little eunuch. I didn't expect him to be so courageous as to find me."

"Okay, I'll go out and take a look. I estimate that he may not have prepared all the ingredients in such a short time. I may need to select more. Besides, my requirements for these ingredients are extremely strict, and he may not be able to meet them."

After Zhu Kai finished speaking, he left the house directly. When he came outside, he saw the eunuch he had arranged in advance.

"My Lord, he is the one who said he wanted to find you."

"Indeed, it was the King who asked him to come here. You guys stay here first. I will take him to the side to have a chat."

"As ordered!"

Zhu Kai and the little eunuch went straight to the corner next to them.

"Your Majesty, was I a little too ostentatious just now?"

"I can only say that you are a bit of a tiger."

"what?"

"Let's not worry about that for now. Let's talk business. How are things going at the court?"

"Lord Liu Bowen said that the prince and Wang Baobao cannot be together at the same time. He does not agree that the two of you should return to the Mongolian tribe together. He is somewhat suspicious of the prince's motives and is afraid that the prince will be interested in the position of the crown prince and threaten the position of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"I didn't expect these old guys to be able to consider so much. It seems that they are really loyal to Big Brother. I am too talented. This can't be blamed on me. The one who sticks out gets shot."

"The first bird to stick its head out gets shot."

"The more prominent someone is, the more jealous they will be. You don't have to worry about what the emperor said. Did he agree or not? Or did he have any slight expression?"

"I am too far away from the Emperor and cannot see his expression, but the Emperor has not commented, and I still have not expressed my agreement or opposition.

The emperor has always been like this. He doesn't like to say things directly and likes to let people around him guess.

This is all the information I can find out, nothing else.

Oh, by the way, the emperor's attitude towards Liao Yongzhong seems a little strange. The emperor did not punish him, nor did he show any other wrongdoings. "

After the young eunuch finished his report, Zhu Kai smiled but said nothing.

"My father is such a person. As an emperor, he cannot show his joy on his face. Although there is nothing wrong on the surface, I am afraid that his heart has been in turmoil for a long time.

Sometimes it’s normal for things to go on under the surface.”

The young eunuch nodded slightly. "Your Majesty, you did the right thing by arranging me here."

"During the more than one year since I left the palace, there have been many things that have not been answered definitively. If I don't arrange for someone to help me monitor the situation in the palace at all times, I will not be able to make any progress."

"It takes courage for you to stay by my side. The situation in the court is now very clear. Most people have seen the situation clearly and are ready to fight on the side of the crown prince. You are indeed brave enough to go against the wind and stand by my side. You are courageous and loyal."

The young eunuch bent his waist, lowered his head, and smiled faintly.

"I never care about these things. The situation in the court is still quite troublesome. I don't care about fame and fortune. Your Majesty is my lifesaver. I will always remember it in my heart and will never forget it."

When the young eunuch suddenly brought up this matter, Zhu Kai had almost forgotten about it.

"Don't flatter me. When have I ever saved your life? I am not in a hurry to do so. Are you remembering the wrong person and repaying the wrong favor?"

The young eunuch looked at Zhu Kai with a firm gaze.

"Your Majesty, no matter how foolish I am, I will never joke about this matter. How could I remember the wrong person? Your kindness is greater than the sky. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid my life would be..."

Zhu Kai recalled the incident carefully, but he really had no impression of it at all.

"Can you tell me when it happened?"

"Your Majesty is busy, it's normal that you can't remember me, but I must never forget your kindness. If I forget your kindness, wouldn't I be worse than pigs and dogs?"

"Oh, please don't say that. Even if I saved you, it doesn't matter. You can be loyal to me, but you don't have to sacrifice your whole life for it.

You have to understand that everyone is an independent individual with their own life goals. You don't have to take me too seriously. Every life on this planet deserves respect."

"This planet?"

"Oh, it means all creatures living in the world, whether they are chickens, ducks, geese, dogs, cats, the emperor, or servants, all have equal lives. At this time of yours, there may be distinctions of high and low, but the number of lives is the same.

Everyone can only live once, and no one has a second chance to be reborn."

When Zhu Kai said this, he was also a little confused.
Why are we talking about philosophical issues for no reason?

"Forget it. These are all philosophical questions. There is no point in discussing them with you. Why don't you just tell me directly, when did I save you?"

The young eunuch lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly.

"Your Majesty, when I was dying, you asked the imperial physician to come and treat me. If it weren't for you, I would definitely not be alive today."

After the young eunuch finished speaking, Zhu Kai was no longer confused. Perhaps it was something that happened before he traveled through time and space to this body. This possibility could not be ruled out.

In this case, it has nothing to do with me.

Zhu Kai looked at the little eunuch in front of him and now had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

In fact, the little eunuch had indeed recognized the wrong person. Before Zhu Kai traveled through here, it was the real Zhu Kai who saved this little eunuch, so the other party is now grateful.

Zhu Kai felt a little guilty. Isn't this taking advantage of the other person?

If I tell him the truth, there are too many things involved to explain clearly.

Zhu Kai felt that he was shameless and cruel if he kept the secret and let the other party help him do such a dangerous thing without knowing the reason.

"My Lord, what do you think we should do now?"

Zhu Kai came back to his senses when he heard the young eunuch's voice.

"Oh, oh, I remember now. At least I did save you. No wonder you took the initiative to find me and said that you would help me keep an eye on the current situation while I was away from the capital.

Since this is the case and the matter is over, you can serve wherever you want, in front of the emperor or in the palace of one of the empresses in the harem.

I think I should find a place where I can relax. After all, slacking off at work is fun. What do you think? Which worker doesn’t want to slack off at work? "

The young eunuch said with a serious expression.

"Your Highness, no matter what, I can't let this matter go! I still have to think about Your Highness's affairs. Your Highness can arrange for me to go wherever he thinks I can be of use."

Zhu Kai was completely shocked by the guy in front of him...

"Uh... Actually, it's just a life-saving favor. It's really not worth mentioning. You really don't have to do this. Life is precious. You have been doing such dangerous things. Do you really not want to live anymore?"

"A scholar will die for his confidant!"

Zhu Kai thought that this little eunuch was just someone he picked randomly, and he never thought that he would be so loyal.

"Actually, if you don't want to stay in the palace, I can send you away. Would you like to consider it? There is a vast world outside."

"Your Majesty, just tell me, who do you want me to stay in the palace to monitor?"

"It seems that the most suitable career for you should be private detective."

"private detective?"

"It's a profession that specializes in exploring other people's secrets."

"Interesting, isn't that similar to the Jinyiwei?"

"That's about right. You don't want to join the Imperial Guard, do you? The Imperial Guard is not something you can just casually arrange. I see that you look frail and I'm afraid you can't handle anything."

"Your Highness, you misunderstood. I don't want to go to the Jinyiwei. Mao Xiang, the commander-in-chief of the Jinyiwei, is not an easy guy to get along with. He is unyielding.

I have heard about some things about Jinyiwei a long time ago, so it is better to deal with it as soon as possible."

"Mao Xiang only listens to my father now. Even I can't order him around. But I think you have great potential. At least in my opinion, you are a potential stock."

“What is a potential stock?”

"How can I tell you? He is a person with great potential. How does the saying go? Let me think about it. A golden fish cannot stay in a pond. Once it encounters wind and clouds, it will turn into a dragon."

"Your Highness is indeed knowledgeable and talented. I have never heard of such nice words. However, Long is the supreme ruler, and these words cannot be said casually."

"That's right, I can't control my mouth anymore." (End of this chapter)
