Chapter 1174

"Xiao Ru, go prepare two sets of eunuch clothes and leave the palace with me." Chen Ning said.

Xiao Ru's eyes opened wide in surprise before her face filled with excitement.

"Alright, young miss, this servant will immediately go. Are you taking this servant out of the palace to play?"

She was as excited as a child. Once she heard leaving the palace, she immediately thought of the bustling streets, the countless delicious foods, and the fun things to do.

Chen Ning smiled as she pinched her round little face.

"I'm taking you out of the palace to do official business, it's not playing around."

"Are we going to Doctor Zhang's palace? This is great, this servant can see Xiao Si again. He ignored me yesterday and I have many things I want to say to him. "Xiao Ru excitedly rushed out.

Chen Ning revealed a bitter smile.

It's Xiao Si again!

This girl's mouth was always thinking about Xiao Si. Could it be that she really liked Xiao Si?

She and Xiao Ru changed into eunuch clothes and took out the palace exit token. They easily left the palace, not attracting any attention or suspicion.

Once they left the palace, she asked the passersby where Li Zhi Xing lived. Then she brought Xiao Ru to the Li palace.

"I'm here on the emperor's orders to see sir Li."

Arriving at the Li palace, Chen Ning raised her head and took out a token. She waved it in front of the Li palace's gatekeeper.

When the gatekeeper saw the yellow token and saw that she and Xiao Ru were eunuchs from the palace, how could he dare neglect them. He quickly smiled and asked them to wait a bit as he quickly went in to report to Li Zhi Xing.

Li Zhi Xing had just been released back to his palace and was currently resting. When he heard that the palace had sent people over and that there was an imperial token, he was shocked and quickly came out to greet them.

When he came to the door, he found that it was two eunuchs wearing normal eunuch clothes and not the faces of the emperor. His heart that was in his throat fell back down, but he still had a smile on his face as he cupped his hands to Chen Ning and Xiao Ru.

"Are the two eunuchs here on the emperor's orders to see this official?"

Chen Ning looked up at him.

Li Zhi Xing was wearing a purple robe and was around forty years old. He had a dignified appearance and a long black beard. He looked like a scholar and did not look like someone who practiced martial arts.

His eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at Chen Ning and Xiao Ru. His heart was a little hesitant.

This slightly taller eunuch looked a little familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where.

Li Zhi Xing naturally knew that this was a royal gift and quickly said, "Two eunuchs, please come in. This official will serve you of tea."

Li Zhixing naturally recognized that this was a gift from the emperor. He hurriedly said, "Please come in, Eunuchs. Let me serve you tea."

He personally led Chen Ning and Xiao Ru to the living room and served them tea. After sitting down, he was not in a rush to ask questions and instead looked at Chen Ning with a faint smile.

With his many years of experience as an official, he could already tell that Chen Ning was the one who had been ordered to pass the message.

As for Xiao Ru, she kept her head down the entire time and followed behind Chen Ning. She looked like a timid little eunuch who had never left the palace. She did not arouse Li Zhixing's suspicions at all.

"Sir Li, how old are you this year?" Chen Ning arrogantly sat down and took a sip of tea before slowly opening her mouth.

Li Zhi Xing was a little surprised. He did not think that Chen Ning's first question would be this.

But he quickly regained his composure and replied, "That's right.
