Chapter 9: The Eunuch

Yi Tusheng said without hesitation: "Of course I am willing to go!" He thought he was going to be promoted!

The young eunuch reappeared, wearing a new smile, and respectfully said: "The governor is resting in bed, please allow the two ladies to meet him."

Tian Jilue pondered for a moment and then said, "Approximately two months or so"

Yang Zihui's attire is elegant and understated, her bronze-hued delicate skin glistens, radiating the fervor of youth and an enviable aura of health. Her beautiful eyes are deep and inscrutable, and the thick eyelashes further enhance the mystery of her phoenix-like eyes, which seem to ripple with the most fragrant and exquisite celestial brew.

The two rode to the Eastern Factory, only to be blocked at the door by Wei Zongxian's young eunuch: "The Supervisor is ill"

Your Excellency, I fear that I am not suitable for this position, as I am not a eunuch

The young eunuch also knew that Tian Ji was a trusted confidant of Wei Zongxian, and he said lightly, "Wait!" before turning and walking inside

Thank you, Your Excellency

Wei Zongxian said: "How many people have you come into contact with!" Yi Tusheng replied: "Reporting to the Supervisor, all those I previously came into contact with were killed by the female assassin last time, and now I am only in contact with people from the prison"

A chill rose from Tian Ji's feet, coursing through his spine and reaching the crown of his head, causing him to involuntarily shiver

Tian Ji expressed his displeasure, saying: "The Supervisor was just fine a moment ago." The young eunuch, feigning authority, replied: "Now he is ill"

Wei Zongxian glared at him fiercely and said: "What do you understand? It is precisely because he is a talent that he must be monitored by hetushu.com to keep an eye on the emperor! Rest assured, I will not strip you of your identity; a slight alteration to your appearance will suffice"

In order to avoid being tracked by the Jinyiwei and raising suspicion, Yi Tusheng, although eager to see them at all times, dared not approach and could only wait for the right opportunity

On that day, he was drinking alone in the prison, when Tian Ji came running in again. Yi Tusheng merely lifted his eyelids to glance at him but did not say a word. Instead, Tian Ji laughed and boldly sat down, snatching the wine jug, pouring himself a drink, and smacking his lips, saying: "I know you are upset, but a small tolerance can prevent great chaos. Trust me, the governor is a person of great talent and vision, but he does not take your talents into account."

Yi Tusheng ate a peanut and coldly said, "You have something to discuss with me!" Tian Ji laughed and replied, "It is not me looking for you, but the Supervisor looking for you!"

Tian Jidao: "However, I have a matter of utmost urgency that requires me to meet with the Governor!"

Tian Jidao: "Father-in-law, Yi Tusheng is a talented individual, it would be better not to..."

Yi Tusheng boldly declared, "The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers; seeking divine help still requires offerings of incense and oil money, right? I won't go!" Tian Ji patted his shoulder and said, "Brother Yi, the governor has not forgotten you; hurry and go!"

Tian Ji and Yi Tusheng both dared not to sit

Well, well said. I indeed did not misjudge you, Yi Tusheng. You may rise now. Hetushu.com. Wei Zongxian was greatly pleased

Wei Zongxian sat back down on the bed and coldly said, "To whom are you loyal?"

Although Yitu Sheng could not understand his words, he immediately expressed, "The loyalty of my subordinate can be as clear as the sun and moon"

Yitu Shengxin thought to himself, having achieved such great merit, there should certainly be some rewards; it seems this must be a good thing. Thus, he stood up, clapped his hands, and said: "I will go with you!"

Yi Tusheng thought, what is Wei Zongxian as a prime minister, just a eunuch; if it weren't for the carpenter emperor, he wouldn't even be worth a fart

In summary, both individuals are exceptionally beautiful

Wei Zongxian sneered, "You little pretty boy, you hardly have any facial hair to begin with. I will have someone pluck all the hair from your face and legs, and that will be that"

Yitu Sheng raised her face like a consort awaiting selection, allowing him to admire her

Yi Tusheng coldly laughed and said, "So arrogant!"

Yitu Sheng felt as if he had been granted a great pardon, and he could not help but become curious, asking: "How can it be changed?"

Wei Zongxian, using his orchid fingers, held Yitu Sheng's chin, looking left and right. After a long while, he finally nodded in satisfaction and said: "Very good, it's you. Sharp and capable, and with exceptional skills. However, I wonder how loyal you are"

Tian Jidao: "Brother Yi was indeed born with a very small Adam's apple, which is truly a unique advantage."

Yi Tusheng knelt on one knee and said, "What orders do you have, Duke?"

Yang Zishan exudes grace and elegance, her lustrous black hair cascading like two small waterfalls over her sharply defined shoulders. Her exquisite features almost make one doubt that she is not a goddess carved from jade, and her ample bosom seems ready to burst forth at any moment

Wei Zongxian lamented: "After the incident with Yang Lian, Prince Xin Zhu Youjian and the Empress frequently spoke ill of me in front of the Emperor. I am busy with official duties and cannot keep an eye on everything all day long, so it is necessary to send a loyal, intelligent, and appropriate person to oversee matters. However, after much consideration, I found no suitable candidates, and fortunately, I discovered you!"

The elder daughter, Yang Zishan, is eighteen years old, and the younger daughter, Yang Zihui, is sixteen years old

Yitu Sheng said without a moment's hesitation: "In this life, I shall be loyal only to Your Excellency."

Yitu sheng was so frightened that he shrank back, thinking to himself, if it really comes to it, I will fight back fiercely, break out of the Eastern Factory, and find a place to establish my own territory to end this miserable life. No matter what, I cannot be castrated; it would be better to die!

Yitu Sheng stood up and asked, "What exactly is your command, my lord?"

Upon entering the inner chamber, the curtains on Wei Zongxian's bed were drawn open. Wei Zongxian, dressed in a white undergarment, casually waved his hand and said, "Please, have a seat"

Wei Zongxian slightly nodded and said, "Yi Tusheng, I am now offering you a favorable position. Are you willing to accept it?"

What infuriated Yi Tusheng was that Wei Zongxian, this castrated dog, after eliminating Yang Lian and others, ran off to the Kingdom of Java to announce the matter of promoting him to the position of a thousand households in the Jinyiwei, which made Yi Tusheng curse under his breath all day long

And the book says, "This seat says you are a eunuch, and you are indeed a eunuch"

Wei Zongxian said: "A few days ago, the Emperor's personal eunuch, Master Zhang, unfortunately passed away. We now need someone to take his place, and I have yet to find a suitable candidate. How about sending you?"

What has happened again

Tian Ji inquired: "The Supervisor asked me to find Yi Tusheng, but I am unsure what instructions there are"

Yi Tusheng arranged for the two young ladies of the Yang family to serve as maids for Ji Qian at the Yihong Weicui Pavilion. No one expected that the daughter of the esteemed Left Deputy Censor would end up in a brothel. As a result, the Jinyiwei searched the entire city but could not find any trace of the two women

Yang Lian's two daughters truly embody the elegance of a scholarly family, possessing extraordinary beauty and an air of literary refinement that is far more enchanting than Ji Qian's alluring and reckless charm

Tian Ji smiled wryly and said, "The prime minister's disciple is a seventh-rank official, what can be done!"

Wei Zongxian said: "Once you are by the Emperor's side, you must closely observe every move of the Emperor, as well as that of the Prince of Xin and the Empress. If there is any sign of disturbance, report to me immediately. If I need to see you, you must come at any time without fail"

Yitu Sheng was so frightened that his legs went weak; he feared nothing in heaven or on earth, but was terrified of this.

Wei Zongxian said: "This matter concerns everyone's life and property. Apart from the three of us, no one else is allowed to know. Tian Ji, you must kill all the Jinyiwei who have seen Yi Tusheng; not a single one can be left alive. You must also keep your mouth shut, do you understand?"

Tian Ji shrugged and said: "I don't know, but I will know when I go. Most likely, it will be a good thing"

The two women, of course, were unaware that this operation was orchestrated by the treacherous Yi Tusheng, whom they regarded wholeheartedly as a great hero and savior.

Wei Zongxian invigorated himself and said: "Oh, I am indeed looking for him for a matter!"

Wei Zongxian glanced at Tian Jidao and asked, "How long have you been in the Jinyiwei?"

Wei Zongxian pondered for a moment, then simply stood up, walked in front of Yi Tusheng, and said: "Lift your head!"

Send me to become a eunuch

Yitu Shengxin thought that as long as he did not have to purify himself, he could agree to any conditions. He quickly said, "Rest assured, Governor, I will not disappoint your high expectations!"

Wei Zongxian coldly remarked, "What you said is somewhat incorrect; logically, you should be loyal to the current Emperor!" Yi Tusheng had long prepared his response: "Your Excellency, you are the most loyal person to the Emperor in the world today. Being loyal to you is being loyal to His Majesty. Therefore, I will obey your orders without question. You are my future, my hope; both my hands and feet belong to you."

The two exchanged a glance, both thinking, Wei Zongxian is truly ill

The residences of Yang Lian, Zuo Guangdou, and four others were completely destroyed overnight by the Jinyiwei, resulting in the capture of the six individuals and the deaths of most of their family members. Only Yang Lian's two daughters managed to escape this calamity by the fortunate intervention of Yi Tusheng.
