Qingshou Palace.
Lu Yun knelt in the center of the hall, with the Grand Empress Dowager Sima Manying sitting high in front of him. She was wearing a smooth golden phoenix skirt that concealed her mature and sexy figure.
The peaks of her chest stand proudly, pushing up the tube top to a fuller extent. The round appearance makes people want to put their hands on it, gently pinch it, and let the breasts deform in their hands.
Gu Can stood aside, hunched over, with an expressionless face, and glanced at Lu Yun with a cold gaze.
"You are Xiao Yunzi!"
The cold voice rang in his ears again, and Lu Yun hurriedly leaned over and shouted, "Greetings to the Empress Dowager, I am Xiao Yunzi!"
"Humph! You were so brave yesterday!"
Sima Manying snorted coldly, and the cold air around her condensed.
"I don't know how I angered the Empress Dowager. I deserve to die!"
Lu Yun lowered his body even lower.
"Damn you, of course you deserve to die! Humph! Yesterday you were so arrogant and proud that you looked at me with dog eyes! Why are you like a quail now? Lift up your head." The Empress Dowager sneered and shouted angrily.
"I wouldn't dare!"
Lu Yun knew that the Empress Dowager was using this as an excuse to vent her anger, so he lowered his body even lower, almost lying on the ground.
"Raise your head, or else...Gu Can!"
The Empress Dowager Sima Manying spoke in a cold voice.
"Yes, Queen!"
Gu Can moved, and his cold and gloomy gaze seemed to turn into substance, staring at Lu Yun like a sharp sword.
His entire body was filled with murderous aura, as if he was only waiting for the Empress Dowager's order, and then he would pounce on the person in front of him like a ghost and cut him into pieces.
Lu Yun swallowed his saliva and raised his head tremblingly. At this moment, his forehead was covered with sweat.
"He is quite handsome! If he hadn't entered the palace, he would be a lovable person!" The Empress Dowager glanced at Lu Yun with her phoenix eyes and said lightly.
"Grand Empress Dowager Miao Zan!"
Lu Yun wiped the sweat from his forehead, but his nerves were still tense and he did not relax at all because of the Empress Dowager's words.
"Xiao Yunzi, you, a mere eunuch, actually made the Tatar leader of literature and art spit blood. That's quite remarkable!"
The Empress Dowager seemed to be praising Lu Yun again, but the coldness and spiciness in her tone made Lu Yun's hair stand on end. He hurriedly said, "It was just a fluke. I only know a little bit!"
"Oh, really?"
Grand Empress Dowager Sima Manying chuckled lightly, then lifted the porcelain glass teacup in front of her and took a sip. "You know a bit too much."
The chill emanating from the Grand Empress Dowager made Lu Yun break out in cold sweats, but he didn't know what the Grand Empress Dowager meant, so he could only remain silent.
"Bang!"
The Grand Empress Dowager placed the teacup heavily on the teacup and said in a cold voice, "Tell me, who are you? Or who sent you to the palace?"
"Grand Empress Dowager, please spare me. I am Xiao Yunzi, the eunuch who just entered the palace yesterday!"
Lu Yun shouted and fell to the ground.
"Don't tell the truth, Gu Can! Drag him out and give him a beating!"
The Empress Dowager had no expression on her face. She parted her red lips and uttered a cruel remark: "Beat him until he talks!"
"yes!"
Gu Can clasped his fists in response and walked over with a gloomy expression.
Looking at the old eunuch Gu Can with a deadpan face, Lu Yun swallowed his saliva and shouted hurriedly, "Grand Empress Dowager, please understand. I am indeed a new eunuch in the palace. No one assigned me to the palace. I entered the palace as a eunuch because my family is poor! I hope the Grand Empress Dowager will understand!"
"The Grand Empress Dowager..."
Lu Yun shouted loudly.
The Empress Dowager remained unmoved until Gu Can was about to leave the palace gate while holding Lu Yun, then she spoke softly to stop him, "Gu Can!"
"yes!"
Gu Canzhe came back, let go of Lu Yun, and returned to the original place.
"Thank you, Grand Empress Dowager!"
Lu Yun, who had survived the disaster, had his clothes on his back soaked with sweat and stuck to his back, but he didn't dare to relax at all. He knew that the main event was coming next, and what he had just done was just a show of force from the Empress Dowager.
"Xiao Yunzi, you are very smart and have extraordinary talents. It is talents like you that I value most!"
The Empress Dowager pursed her lips and said, "I need your help. Are you willing to help me?"
"Yes, Xiao Yunzi is willing to do his best to relieve the empress dowager's worries!" For the sake of his own life, Lu Yun said hurriedly.
"The current Emperor is young and inexperienced in governing. I fear he may not know people well and may not trust the words of treacherous ministers. Since you are someone the Emperor values, I hope you can record everything the Emperor says and does and give it to me later!"
really!
Lu Yun's pupils shrank. Ever since he was stopped by Gu Can and took a secluded path to the Qingshou Palace, seemingly trying not to let anyone know, he began to wonder if the Empress Dowager was trying to make him a traitor? To spy on the Emperor?
After hearing what the Empress Dowager said, Lu Yun confirmed it.
Although the emperor acted like a sissy, Lu Yun felt that the emperor appreciated him and did not blame him for being shot twice by him. Lu Yun did not want to be a traitor from the bottom of his heart.
Looking at the expressionless and composed Grand Empress Dowager, and then at the gloomy Gu Can, Lu Yun wanted to struggle: "Grand Empress Dowager, I am just a servant serving the Queen. I have not had much contact with the Emperor in the past. I am afraid that I will disappoint the Grand Empress Dowager's kindness!"
"Why do you want to reject me?"
In an instant, the Empress Dowager's tone turned cold.
"The Empress Dowager is wise. I'm just afraid I'll disappoint her!"
Lu Yun shuddered, but still explained it with courage.
"Gu Can!"
"yes!"
Looking at the gloomy old eunuch who was getting closer, Lu Yun subconsciously stepped back and turned to run, only to find that Gu Can had already come in front of him.
No way? Another martial arts master?
Lu Yun groaned inwardly.
"Let's go!"
Gu Can reached out and grabbed Lu Yun's shoulder bone with his five fingers like an eagle's claws. Lu Yun frowned in pain and shouted, "It hurts...it hurts..."
"The Emperor has arrived!"
At this time, the eunuch's loud shouting came from outside the door.
"It's finally here! Little Guizi didn't let me down! The Emperor didn't let me down!"
Lu Yun felt relieved, but a piercing pain came from his shoulder.
It turned out that when Gu Can heard the sound of the emperor coming again, he did not let go of Lu Yun. Instead, he used more force, and his fingers pierced through Lu Yun's clothes and penetrated into the flesh.
Blood gushed out instantly.
"Let him go!" The empress, who was dressed in gorgeous black clothes, saw this scene, her face changed and she shouted loudly.
Gu Can remained unmoved.
"I told you to let him go!" The empress's face darkened and she said sternly again.
Gu Can still doesn't move!
"Summer Cicada!"
"Swish…!"
Xia Chan, who was one body length behind, was wearing flowing white clothes and had a pretty face but was as cold as frost. She had already unsheathed the sword in her arms and was holding it across Gu Can's neck, her eyes filled with murderous intent.
