Chapter Seven, Summoned by the Empress Dowager.

Impudent!

The curtain falls on a play where the monarch and his subjects cherish each other. Although Bai Muqiu was somewhat moved, he did not pour out his heart and soul. After dealing with the young emperor, he dragged his tired little body back to the duty room in the inner courtyard.

The Regent Kanar... He said... The person behind the curtain hesitated.

"Since that's the case, please lead the way!" Bai Muqiu gritted his teeth and reluctantly bowed, answering.

You can look if you want, you little eunuch, it's not like there's anything harmful anyway. The beauty behind the curtain gently lifts a corner, her autumn-like eyes blink a few times, with a light smile she puts down the curtain. "You really are a handsome little eunuch. I heard you know martial arts? You've seriously injured Wei Gonggong."

Bai Muqiu bowed and stepped back. As the night breeze blew, he suddenly became clear-headed. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the Empress Dowager seemed to have a flirtatious relationship with him. Could it be that the Empress Dowager actually believed she had a younger brother?

This phrase is quite fresh. Lift your head up and let this old man have a good look at what a eunuch who dares to incite the emperor looks like. Lazy and weak, the voice came from behind the rolled-up curtain.

This barefaced remark, even the most foolish person can probably understand its meaning. After saying this, Bai Muqiu quickly lowered her head and stood still, surrounded by dead silence, not even the sound of breathing could be heard.

A series of rhetorical questions came coldly through the pearl curtain, shocking Bai Muqiu into a cold sweat. It's not that he didn't expect the Empress Dowager's move, but he didn't expect it to be known so quickly.

Bai Muqiu considered himself to be a person in his thirties who had been through a lot. He couldn't help but feel a bit overwhelmed. After all, this woman was in her thirties, in the prime of her life. Every frown and smile carried a mature charm that the young palace maids couldn't compare to.

The Ciming Palace? Bai Mu took a cold breath in her heart. That was the Empress Dowager's bedroom. What was she being called over for at this time? Of course, it wasn't because she was afraid of any illicit affairs. After all, she was a eunuch and no one would speak of any palace secrets.

White Muqiu nodded and said, "It's only natural for servants to do so."

``You are indeed a clever little eunuch. What you said has really touched my heart.'' A soft and boneless hand quietly appeared on Bai Muqiu's back, slid down along the neck, gently brushed past. Bai Muqiu felt every pore on his body dilate, the tingling sensation was almost heavenly.

The empress dowager's approach is unclear. Bai Muqiu followed behind two palace maids with some unease all the way to the Ciming Palace, entering through a side door and arriving outside a chamber. After the two palace maids knocked on the door three times, they bowed and stepped back.

White Muqiu quickly continued, "Does the Empress Dowager know if there is any precedent for a Empress Dowager being demoted to Empress in our Wu Dynasty and even in the previous dynasties?"

Bai Muqiu once again bowed, carefully repeating the words he had said to Zhao Ji before, but this time adding the Empress herself. "If we allow Zhao Wu to covet the throne, not only will Your Majesty's life be in danger, but the Empress may also have concerns for her own life. Just imagine, who would be willing to let a brother-in-law ride on their head and become the Empress? To put it crudely, why should someone inexplicably gain a mother on their head?"

The voice behind the curtain suddenly shouted loudly, "What does a eunuch like you understand?"

Seizing the opportunity, I quickly got up from the ground and ran towards the door. Turning around, I assumed a defensive posture, only to see two older palace maids chasing after me. So I scolded them, saying, "We have no acquaintance with each other, why do you want to harm me for no reason?"

Yes!

Ugh! My master has summoned you. Whoever wants to harm your eunuch life. A solemn-faced palace maid on the left rubbed the spot that was just touched, and said angrily, "The master just wanted us maidservants to test it out, to see if it's true. Since it is, please come with us to the Ciming Palace."

As he passed by carelessly, a palace maid with a long face suddenly reached out and twisted his buttocks. Bai Muqiu was startled. Obviously, his delicate appearance had aroused the interest of these perverted palace maids who had been deprived of nourishment for years. Especially the two maids who served the empress dowagers, not only were they arrogant, but they also knew martial arts. It was only natural for them to bully him.

It turns out that not only eunuchs are perverted, but also palace maids who have been suffering from prolonged drought can become perverted.

Alright, I will let you finish speaking. If you can't come up with a valid argument, be prepared to meet your end in a chaotic graveyard.

Thinking of this, Bai Muqiu thought of Zhao Ji's face and decided to help him. Even if he couldn't persuade the Empress Dowager, at least he could keep her neutral. With this in mind, he arched his hand and said, "If the Empress Dowager doesn't believe it, she can call the palace maid to check it out. The servant is young and naturally has some temper. When she saw Wei Gonggong hurt the servant's subordinate, she naturally had to intervene, otherwise how could she win the trust of the people?"

As soon as he pushed open the door, Bai Muqiu felt two gusts of wind rushing towards him. In a moment of urgency, he rolled on the ground and caught a glimpse of the hem of two palace maidens' skirts. After realizing who had attacked him, he quickly pointed his fingers like a towering pine reaching for the clouds and struck each of their thick thighs with a finger. The two palace maidens cried out in pain.

Bai Muqiu only felt uncomfortable all over, but slowly straightened up and lifted the little face. This time, behind the pearl curtain, he vaguely saw a side profile lying down, and in the gap, a light gauze seemed to wrap around a mature body, creating a hazy and alluring beauty.

When he calmed down, the owner of the voice returned to behind the curtain and said, "Support my son well, and naturally you, this servant, will not be left without benefits. Step back now. Today's matter must not be known by any third party."

This Wei Fulai should be someone from the Empress Dowager's side. No wonder she is so confident. But why doesn't the Empress Dowager care about her own son? Could it be that she also has no confidence in him? Bai Muqiu felt a bit confused about the people in the palace. This woman is so cunning. Could it be that she has some ulterior motive against Zhao Wu? Or did Zhao Wu sweet-talk her and promise her to become the Empress in the future?

After a moment, a lazy voice came from inside.

At this moment, the bead curtain rattled and a pair of fair and delicate toes appeared in the lowered line of sight. A mature woman's charm lingered under Bai Muqiu's nose.

Come in.

Bai Muqiu continued with a stiff scalp, "Whether you understand or not, please listen to the words of this servant until the end, Your Majesty. It is not too late to kill or punish afterwards."

Dear Empress Dowager, there is indeed such a matter, however...

Bai Muqiu looked around and found that there were no palace maids or guards present. With a forced courage, he cautiously pushed open the door and imitated the tone of the Qing palace drama, saying, "May the Empress Dowager be blessed. I wonder what instructions you have for Xiaoningzi."

Looking up a bit more, there was a very thin gauze floating, and inside it, a mature body with jade-like warmth was occasionally visible, with a plump and graceful waist, arousing people's imagination. Bai Muqiu dared not look up again and lowered his head to the ground.

The conversation was interrupted before it finished by the woman behind the curtain, "No, but the court official informed me that your cultivation of pure yang inner strength is impure. Do you know your crime?"

If it weren't for the lack of manpower in the palace, I would really want to bring you over and wait by my side every night. A breath as fragrant as orchids suddenly woke Bai Muqiu up, who repeatedly apologized.

The palace maid with a long mole on her eyebrow on the right side snorted coldly, raised her eyebrows, turned around, and headed towards the mansion gate. The palace maid with a long face said, "Sir, please follow me. Please forgive any previous offenses."

Well... that's the reason. Since you dared to have someone investigate, it shows that you have no guilt in your heart. Moreover, if I really wanted to see it, I wouldn't be in this bedroom. The empress dowager's lazy voice suddenly turned cold and she continued, "Since the past has already been revealed, let me ask you, how did you incite the emperor? As for the matter of inviting the regent prince and spreading the news of buying eunuchs and palace maids, do you really think that I, as the master of this harem, am unaware of it?"

However, since I have come to know, it is a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation. I say, "It is good for the Empress Dowager to be aware that I am helping Your Majesty. Your Majesty is her own son, and the Empress Dowager should know that the throne is now covered in dust and the power is slipping away. This is not a good sign."
