After stepping into the third level of the divine arts, his comprehension was naturally extraordinary. He remembered everything that Wang Fu taught him that night.
The job of a eunuch was simple. He mainly had to serve the nobles, princes, concubines, and princesses who came to Spring Garden to play. If he served them well, he would even be rewarded.
When no one came to Spring Garden, he had to be in charge of cleaning with the palace maids. He had nothing to do all day because he was brought here by Wang Fu. No one dared to ask him to do anything and treated Su Fang like a lord. Because of this, Su Fang was cultivating almost all the time and absorbing the cold Yin energy.
Herculean Divine Palm
Su Fang had to study his first divine art well. At the same time, he had to raise the Dragon Snake Scroll to the extreme. After all, it was his first time cultivating the Dragon Snake Scroll. It could also be upgraded to a divine art in the future.
"Not good, Shun Yi is about to be beaten to death by the third princess!"
After a period of time, Su Fang had completely adapted to his identity as a eunuch and was constantly mastering the Herculean Divine Art. Suddenly, he heard movements in the two rooms.
Third Princess
Since she was here to assassinate the Emperor, she might be able to meet the true Son of Heaven.
He left the room and came to Spring Garden. As expected, in a corridor beside the lake, a few eunuchs who were not from Spring Garden were slapping a young eunuch. They were slapping him loudly in front of everyone. Fresh blood flowed out from his mouth. They were beating him to death.
In just five minutes, that young eunuch was beaten to death. How could the third princess be in the mood to play with a group of people? She was like a mad dog that everyone feared. The eunuchs and palace maids could not wait to avoid her.
"This third princess is only 29 years old and looks pretty, but she kills people the moment she attacks!"
Human lives were cheap.
At this moment, the palace maids and eunuchs were carrying the eunuch's corpse out of Spring Garden.
"Although the third princess is usually very fierce, she has never killed anyone here before!"
"You guys didn't hear? A friend of mine who works in the third princess' palace secretly told me that the third princess and Lord Heavenly General Zhao Ziba were secretly in contact. When the two of them were having fun, they were discovered by the Emperor!"
"I heard about this too. If you didn't say it, I didn't dare to say it either. Speaking of which, everyone in the princess' palace knew that the two of them were having an affair!"
"That can't be! She is a princess!"
"So what if she is a princess? Lord Zhao Ziba is young and powerful!"
"There are also people who say that the princess is pregnant and is about to be married to Lord Zhao."
To Su Fang's surprise, the group of palace maids and eunuchs began to discuss in private after the Third Princess left.
Just like that, the news of the royal family spread like wildfire.
"Zhao Ziba!"
What puzzled him the most was why it was Zhao Ziba.
He had interacted with Zhao Ziba for more than a year. This person was very scheming, and no one knew that he was the adopted son of the current King of Yue. However, the truth was that he was the adopted son of the current King of Yue. Furthermore, he was a high-ranking official in the Empire, and his future was limitless.
It was too illogical. Zhao Ziba should have kept a low profile and not stirred up trouble, but this time, he had blasphemed the Third Princess.
After a long time, a thought appeared in his mind as he stared at the empty surface of the lake. "Could it be that there is some mystery behind this?"
"What are you all doing? The Emperor and Concubine Xiao are about to go boating at the Spring Garden!"
Suddenly, a group of eunuchs came.
Almost all of them were old eunuchs, and each one of them scolded the palace maids and eunuchs. They also ordered Su Fang and a few other eunuchs and palace maids to row the imperial boat that was parked in the corner over and park it in front of the Lake Pavilion to welcome the arrival of the Emperor and Concubine Xiao.
"Emperor, this is a good opportunity to kill the Emperor!"
Su Fang stood at the side of the big boat and waited with his back bent. He silently muttered in his heart, and suddenly, he felt a surge of heat, a heat that wanted to kill someone.
At this moment, the palace maids and eunuchs were telling each other, "Everyone, be especially careful today. Perhaps the Emperor will strike a Thunder because of the Third Princess. Everyone, don't hit the muzzle of the gun!"
All of them kept quiet out of fear.
"Welcome the Emperor and Concubine Xiao!"
A group of palace maids rushed into the Smooth Spring Garden, and the imperial guards immediately guarded the corridor.
In the air, Su Fang, who had a perfect physical body, could hear the heartbeats of the palace maids and eunuchs. It was obvious how afraid they were of the Emperor.
The boat immediately moved and slightly swayed. A portion of the imperial guards, palace maids, and eunuchs boarded the boat. The palace maids placed flower baskets in every corner, and soon, the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers.
After the Head Eunuch who followed the Emperor gave the order, the boat gradually sailed towards the center of the lake.
At this moment, there were no less than thirty imperial guards, palace maids, and eunuchs on the boat, but it was as quiet as a cold night. Everyone could hear their own breathing.
"Your Majesty, the matter with the Third Princess has already been settled. Moreover, Lord Zhao is also a dignified man. Although he does not have an illustrious family background, and his background cannot be compared to those nobles and princes, this person is hardworking and loyal!"
When a gentle breeze blew past, the voice of a young girl, but very dignified, abruptly broke the silence.
The Emperor's deep voice sounded, "Zhao Ziba is not bad, and this Emperor also thinks highly of him. However, he actually dared to blaspheme the Third Princess behind this Emperor's back. This matter concerns the reputation of the Imperial Family. If the Third Princess was not pregnant with a vile spawn, this Emperor would definitely take Zhao Ziba's head to vent my hatred!"
As the Emperor, he was the overlord of the world, yet someone dared to provoke his dignity!
Everyone present could hear the Emperor's murderous rage.
The woman comforted him, "The matter has already been settled. Why don't we change our perspective and fulfill the wish of the Imperial Family? As the saying goes, it takes two hands to clap. This matter also has something to do with the Third Princess, so please calm down!"
"Why does Concubine Xiao's voice sound so familiar?"
Not far away, Su Fang bowed and waited for orders. He really wanted to take a step forward and use the Ghost King's Claw or the Spirit Snake Blade, as well as the Spirit Concealment Ring to kill the Zhao Emperor.
At this moment, Su Fang stared at Concubine Xiao, who was beside the Emperor. When she spoke again, he had an indescribable feeling. Seeing Concubine Xiao's back and hearing her voice, it was as if he had seen this scene before.
"Your Majesty, the Wise King requests an audience!" Suddenly, a shout came from the shore.
After the Head Eunuch gave the order, the boat gradually approached the shore. The Emperor coldly roared, "Didn't I say that there would be no court matters today?"
An old eunuch on the shore was so frightened that he knelt down, "The Wise King is very anxious. He said that there was a sudden war in some of the border cities!"
"State matters are more important!" Concubine Xiao echoed.
"I have to go now. I will accompany my beloved concubine to tour the garden another day!" The Emperor held his head high and left the Spring Garden under the escort of the imperial bodyguards.
After respectfully sending the Emperor off, Concubine Xiao allowed a portion of the people to disembark. The boat slowly sailed towards the center of the lake. Su Fang quietly stared at Concubine Xiao. She had just stood up and was admiring the lotus flowers on the lake.
"She also looks very familiar!"
Sizing up Concubine Xiao's side profile, Su Fang was even more puzzled. Why did this dignified Imperial Concubine in front of him have a familiar feeling?
When Concubine Xiao turned sideways, he also saw Concubine Xiao's appearance. It would have been better if he didn't look, but once he did, he felt an indescribable heat wave sweep through his body. Drops of blood flowed from his nostrils.
At this moment, in Su Fang's mind and eyes, there was only Concubine Xiao's existence. He stared at Concubine Xiao like a wooden puppet.
When a personal palace maid saw this blasphemy towards the Imperial Concubine, she immediately walked over, "How dare you!"
This caused Concubine Xiao's gaze to fall on Su Fang. Concubine Xiao's beautiful face was startled, then puzzled until her eyebrows furrowed.
The palace maid was furious, "Dog servant, how dare you blaspheme your master! Do you want your eyeballs?!"
"Bring him here!" Concubine Xiao returned to her seat in the center and ordered the eunuchs around her.
The eunuchs swiftly restrained Su Fang. At this moment, Su Fang lowered his head. He really regretted his loss of self-control. He had ruined this important matter.
Concubine Xiao looked at the palace maid beside her, "Take off his hat!"
The palace maid reached out and unceremoniously took away the round hat on Su Fang's head. Su Fang lowered his head as much as possible, but he felt that Concubine Xiao had been watching him.
"You all withdraw first!"
With this order, the palace maids and eunuchs retreated far away. Concubine Xiao looked at Su Fang again. She first drank a cup of water before speaking faintly, "I remember that there was a person who looked very similar to you. She should have died long ago. Why is she still alive?"
"This lowly one …" Su Fang still lowered his head.
Concubine Xiao continued, "I don't know why, but I feel that you look very similar to that person I know. Unfortunately, that person deserved to die. He deserved ten thousand deaths because he saw something he shouldn't have!"
Su Fang played dumb, "This lowly one is just a eunuch!"
"Oh, is that so? Who told me to hate that person so much? I also hate liars. Why don't I just kill you and chop you into mincemeat and use you as fertilizer? I heard that fertilizer made from human flesh makes it even more tender and beautiful after it blooms, just like a fifteen-year-old girl!"
"Thump!"
At this moment, his heart trembled. Su Fang wanted to activate his magic weapon and make the first move. If there was no other way, then his life was more important.
Concubine Xiao suddenly revealed a fairy-like smile, "You tell me, and I won't tell anyone else. How about it?"
Su Fang didn't dare to admit it. Thinking back to when he accidentally met Concubine Xiao at the cold pond, he never imagined that the important person he thought was actually the current Concubine Xiao.
The Emperor's woman!
The main point was that the emperor's concubines had been touched by him and he had seen all of them.
No matter what, he couldn't admit it, "This lowly one doesn't know what Your Ladyship means. Is it because this lowly one looks like Your Ladyship's old friend?"
"Return to the palace!"
Unexpectedly, Concubine Xiao didn't make things difficult for Su Fang anymore. She was just as aloof and refined as before.
When Concubine Xiao left Smooth Spring Garden, Su Fang felt that he had once again brushed shoulders with death. It seemed that Concubine Xiao really wasn't sure if it was him.
But to Su Fang, he was certain that the mysterious woman he met at Mount Ziqi that year who killed her fellow disciples was the current Concubine Xiao.
Su Fang never imagined that he would see Wang Fu come to Smooth Spring Garden before noon the next day, accompanied by a senior eunuch. They were here to take Su Fang to Concubine Xiao's palace as an errand boy.
"I thought I could hide this matter from her. Who knew that this woman was so unpredictable and even made a move behind my back. Now that I've entered Concubine Xiao's palace, won't I be eaten by her until not even my bones are left?" Su Fang followed the eunuchs as they left Smooth Spring Garden. His heart was beating uneasily.
A sheep entering the tiger's den!
Concubine Xiao's palace was located near the center of the imperial palace. It was a grand and imposing palace.
After entering the palace and waiting for a report, Wang Fu took the opportunity to say, "Young Lord, Eldest Young Master ordered you to hide in Concubine Xiao's palace. Concubine Xiao is one of the Emperor's concubines and can often meet the Emperor."
Su Fang secretly agreed, but his mind was thinking, "It seems that Zhao Ziba doesn't know the reason. This plan is ruined. I'll fly out of the palace when I have the chance. Even if I'm chased, I'm not afraid."
"You guys go. This person will be a member of Concubine Xiao's palace in the future. You have to find some honest people and send them to me."
A woman in her early twenties wearing embroidered clothes appeared. She seemed to be an expert. She didn't give the eunuchs any face and led Su Fang into the inner hall in front of everyone.
Su Fang quietly sized up Concubine Xiao's palace. He felt that there were very few people and very few eunuchs. Instead, there were more palace maids. Perhaps it was because this was the imperial concubine's palace.
