Afterward, Yan Fei followed Mu Yunge out of Weiyang Palace, accompanied by five or six eunuchs and maids.
However, Mu Yunge ignored the people behind her and waved to Yan Fei, saying, “Xiao Xi, hurry up.”
Hearing this, Yan Fei quickly walked to her side.
“Hold my hand!” Mu Yunge said.
Upon hearing this, Yan Fei was taken aback, but remembering that he was no longer even considered a boy, he pursed his lips, then stepped forward, bent down, and took Mu Yunge’s hand.
Her little hands were soft and warm. If she weren’t the Emperor’s daughter, Yan Fei thought that he would definitely enjoy playing with her.
Unfortunately, she is the Emperor’s daughter, his enemy.
However, today it was all thanks to her constantly asking him for this and that that he hadn’t given himself away in front of the Emperor.
Thinking of this, Yan Fei pulled her along and walked slowly.
The eunuchs and maids behind them, seeing how much Mu Yunge liked Yan Fei, couldn’t help but exchange different glances.
This lad was really lucky; he skipped so much hardship and toiled the moment he entered the palace, rising directly to become the Ninth Princess’s personal eunuch.
After strolling around outside for a while, Mu Yunge said, “Xiao Xi, I’m sleepy. Carry me back.”
Hearing this, Yan Fei nodded quickly and squatted down.
Seeing this, Mu Yunge immediately pounced on him and wrapped her arms around his neck.
Looking at her chubby little hand placed in front of him, Yan Fei’s eyes darkened slightly, and then he walked steadily toward Weiyang Palace. He had practiced martial arts since childhood, and although he was no longer considered a man, he still had the strength to carry someone.
Seeing this, the other eunuchs and maids quickly stood guard around the two, afraid that Yan Fei would drop Mu Yunge.
When they returned, the Emperor had already left.
Seeing that Mu Yunge had been carried back by Yan Fei, the Empress couldn’t help but laugh, “Didn’t you say you were going for a walk? Why did you have Qi Xi carry you back instead?”
Upon hearing this, Mu Yunge immediately pouted and said, “I’m tired from walking.”
“Alright, get down and wash up, then get ready for bed.”
The Empress stepped forward and helped Mu Yunge down.
Then she said to Yan Fei, “You may leave.”
Just as Yan Fei was about to agree, Mu Yunge said, “No, Mother, I want Xiao Xi to stay with me.”
Hearing this, the Empress nodded helplessly, then looked at Yan Fei: “Since Xiao Jiu’er wants you to stay with her, from now on, you and Chun Xiao will be responsible for Xiao Jiu’er’s daily life.”
Yan Fei immediately responded, “Yes, Your Majesty.”
However, Yan Fei was somewhat puzzled.
Why did this Ninth Princess seem to like clinging to him so much?
But soon, Yan Fei couldn’t help but think that he was overthinking things.
Perhaps the Ninth Princess is still a child at heart, only interested in something new for a short time.
After a while, when she sees other handsome eunuchs and palace maids, she might not like him anymore.
Thinking of this, a sense of crisis instantly welled up in Yan Fei’s heart.
He had to stay by the Ninth Princess’s side!
Only in this way could he get close to the Emperor and find a suitable opportunity!
Afterward, Yan Fei, along with another palace maid named Chun Xiao, took Mu Yunge to a side hall of Weiyang Palace to bathe.
Although he knew that becoming a eunuch would inevitably involve seeing the bodies of women in the palace, Yan Fei never imagined that the first female body he would see would be that of a little girl who hadn’t even grown up yet.
However, there was no change in his expression. He was just secretly mocking himself, thinking: In other people’s eyes, I am now a monster who is neither male nor female. What is there to be wary of?
