FSC [QT] Chapter 101.3

One of the young eunuchs snatched ‘Yan Yu’s’ things and kicked him, so ‘Yan Yu’ broke his ten fingers and had one of his legs broken.

There was also a young eunuch who was cleaning an uninhabited palace three years ago. He accidentally broke a vase, but he framed ‘Yan Yu’. That time, he was beaten with fifty boards, his back was torn, and his buttocks were almost broken.

…

The last eunuch was ‘Yan Yu’’s leading eunuch. Those people could easily frame ‘Yan Yu’ just because the leading eunuch didn’t like him. He was happy to see any frame-up against him and never explored the truth.

How these people treated ‘Yan Yu’ at the beginning, now ‘Yan Yu’ repaid them double the amount.

At this moment, ‘Yan Yu’ profoundly interpreted what it meant to never forgive others once you gained power.

Yan Zhongying was happy to see such an adopted son who was ruthless and determined to avenge his revenge. The reason why ‘Yan Yu’ could do this easily was because it was also his instruction.

At this moment, Yan Zhongying was really happy to hear ‘Yan Yu’ say that these were just interests, and it was far from revenge. Such a villain who would avenge every grievance was the puppet he wanted to support.

‘Yan Yu’ could be stronger so that he could let him do some things with confidence.

“What a pity.”

Yan Zhongying signaled ‘Yan Yu’ to bend down, while he sat up slightly with the support of the eunuch on the side.

With the effect of Changshou Powder, he pinched ‘Yan Yu’s’ thin chin. Feeling the delicate and warm touch on his fingertips, Yan Zhongying was reluctant to take his hand back for a while.

It was such a pity that such an agreeable face had such an agreeable temperament.

The concubine could still be found if he searched carefully, but it was not easy to find a successor who suited his taste. Yan Zhongying knew that if he wanted ‘Yan Yu’s’ trust, he couldn’t do anything that would make him rebound.

Thinking of this, Yan Zhongying could only sigh and withdraw his hand.

“His Majesty is about to open the furnace to test the elixir again. Calculating the time, it’s almost time. Yu’er will follow the Godfather to see the world later. By the way, Godfather will also introduce you to His Majesty.”

Emperor Qian’s thoughts were all on the matter of immortality, but he could not let go of the imperial power. He was deeply afraid that delegating power to a few princes would foster the ambitions of his sons.

Therefore, all the memorials were now annotated by Yan Zhongying, the Chief Eunuch.

Because in the eyes of Emperor Qian, Yan Zhongying, who had no roots and no direct blood relationship outside the palace, would not achieve great things even if he had ambitions.

Besides, Yan Zhongying performed well in front of Emperor Qian. Not only did he like Changshou Powder just like him, but he also supported his behavior of refining elixirs and seeking Taoism.

In addition, every time something big happened in court, Yan Zhongying would not act on his own, but he would report to Emperor Qian with a memorial.

So, Emperor Qian trusted this trusted eunuch very much.

“Thank you, Godfather.”

Yu Yan’s attitude was respectful, and he showed an expression of suppressed ecstasy.

Such emotions fell in Yan Zhongying’s eyes, which made him even more relieved.

***

“Greetings to the Fifth Prince and Seventh Prince.”

Before entering the Taoist Palace where Emperor Qian was refining the alchemy, Yan Zhongying and Yu Yan bumped into the Seventh Prince Li Chengyu and the Fifth Prince Li Chenghe who had just wanted to meet Emperor Qian but were rejected.

Even though several princes looked down on Yan Zhongying, Yan Zhongying’s attitude toward the princes was always respectful and humble.

It was precisely because of this that Emperor Qian always felt that his sons were unreasonable and troublesome. Another reason was that they couldn’t stand Yan Zhongying and slandered him in front of him as he coveted the throne under his buttocks.

He was increasingly dissatisfied with his sons and was deeply afraid of them.

“Hmph!”

Li Chengyu was the only son of the highest-ranking imperial concubine in the harem, and he was also the youngest prince in the palace. He had been spoiled since he was a child.

When he saw Yan Zhongying, a eunuch, he snorted and left with a flick of his sleeves.

Although the Fifth Prince Li Chenghe was also a prince, he was born to a palace maid. He was a transparent prince who was disliked by his adoptive mother, the Noble Concubine, and Emperor Qian.

At this moment, he could only return a salute to Yan Zhongying, then followed the footsteps of the Seventh Prince, and left.

Yu Yan’s eyes met his. Then, both of them casually avoided each other’s eyes and passed by.

After the two princes left, Yan Zhongying straightened his back, which was originally bent when he saluted the princes, and glanced coldly at the arrogant Seventh Prince’s back.

Sooner or later, one day…

Yan Zhongying’s eyes turned to the plaque of the Taoist Palace, once again put on a humble and flattering face, and walked toward the palace with a smile.
