The eunuch was almost frightened when he heard this. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed to apologize: "Your Majesty, please forgive me, Your Majesty, please forgive me, your servant...your servant..."

"Get lost. Don't ever appear in front of me again." Shao Qian said in a cold voice.

The messenger Tai Chuan heard this and his face turned pale. He was not allowed to appear in front of His Majesty in the future. This directly destroyed his future. He originally wanted to flatter His Majesty, but he never thought that he would flatter the horse's leg. How could he be so stupid as to want to replace the eunuch who grew up with His Majesty?

Shao Qian called the guards and threw the eunuch out. Then he called Xifu to his side and said, "You can't do this again. You are my little fool. How can you let others bully you?"

"But...but I won't refute." Xifu stammered. He was an honest child, and his lips were as sticky as glue. How could he win over others?

"Just tell me directly, what do you think I should do? Is it your business?" Shao Qian patted Xifu's arm and looked at him encouragingly.

"..." Xifu turned his head twice, then said with a sad face: "Master, I am a eunuch."

Who has ever seen a eunuch calling himself "Master"? I haven't seen it, anyway.

Shao Qian was choked by Xifu's words. Isn't he quite good at talking?

"Then let's talk about our family." Many eunuchs in TV dramas seem to say this? Shao Qian said that he hadn't watched TV for a long time and couldn't remember it clearly.

"Oh." Xifu nodded, not quite understanding.

"From now on, no one can scold you except me. If anyone scolds you, you should fight back. Don't be afraid, I'll support you." Shao Qian stood up and patted Xifu's shoulder in a heroic manner: "I am the emperor, and you will be my chief steward in the future. Don't be weak in momentum."

"Ah." Xifu was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes when he heard Shao Qian's words. He was not excited because his master asked him to be the supervisor, but because his master's words made him feel that he was needed and could share his master's worries. Also, he was trusted by his master.

Shao Qian took Xifu to the Imperial Garden for nearly an hour before leaving. Soon after he left, someone informed the Regent of his actions.

The Regent, who was half lying on the couch, sneered when he heard the secret guard repeating what Shao Qian said. He was just a kid whose hair hadn't even fully grown, and he was actually thinking of backing up others?

"Go down. If Helian Yixuan has any other actions, report immediately." After Helian Jingqi asked everyone to leave, he stood up and walked to the inner room. He walked to the wall, opened the secret door and entered the secret room.

This place was not a place to store any rare treasures or military secrets, but the walls were filled with portraits, portraits without faces.

The people in the portraits are either sitting, lying or looking up, and there are many different poses in the portraits, but it is not difficult to see that the faceless portraits are all of one person. The person in the painting is mostly wearing a neat short shirt, and only a few of them are wearing heavy and gorgeous clothes and standing on a high platform. His black hair is braided into a pigtail and hangs behind him, with a diamond-shaped forehead ornament on his forehead, and his body is wrapped in layers of heavy and gorgeous clothes. The only flaw is probably this empty face.

Helian Jingqi's fingers gently brushed the top of the head of the person in the painting, and slid down along the lines of the paper. But her fingers stopped when they touched the cheek of the person in the painting. Why can't I remember his appearance? He has appeared in my dreams countless times, why can't I remember his appearance?
