Qin Lihua was very happy that Zhou Shiming’s body could recover.

She immediately made some nourishing supper from the kitchen and sent it over.

The news of Zhou Shiming’s recovery quickly spread throughout the Imperial Palace, and everyone was pleasantly surprised.

“It’s a pity that Little Eunuch He has to leave temporarily. Otherwise, with a half-step saint cultivator overseeing things, the seven great sects would definitely not dare to invade,” Qin Lihua said with great pity.

Everyone knew very clearly what a half-step saint cultivator meant to the Great Zhou dynasty.

“This is already the best result. The eight great clan kings have all been captured, and the seven great sects have temporarily closed their mountain gates. For the time being, the Imperial Court will not have any worries. Moreover, don’t forget that Ning’er is Little Eunuch He’s disciple!”

Zhou Shiming reminded.

“Hiss!”

Qin Lihua sucked in a breath of cold air. She had almost forgotten about this.

As the disciple of a half-step saint cultivator, her future achievements would definitely not be bad, and she would even have the status of master and disciple.

Presumably, when she encountered difficulties, He Chuan would not just stand by and watch.

“Your Majesty is more thoughtful. I can’t see that far ahead.”

If Princess Changning had failed to acknowledge him as her master because of her objection back then, wouldn’t she regret it to death?

“You don’t have to blame yourself. If I had not come into contact with Eunuch He, I would have made the same decision,” Zhou Shiming consoled.

When he heard that Zhou Shiming was fine, Crown Prince Cheng’an rushed over from the Eastern Palace.

“It’s great that Emperor Father is fine!” Crown Prince Cheng’an shed tears of excitement. He was not ready to be Emperor yet.

It was not that easy to be an Emperor. There were too many things to face.

When the Emperor saw that Zhou Shiming was fine, he felt a weight lift off his heart. A faint sense of disappointment was quickly suppressed.

The news that the Emperor’s condition had suddenly improved spread like wings.

When the officials saw Zhou Shiming personally preside over the morning court, they were also in disbelief.

He did not hide the fact that there were many soldiers. Zhou Shiming had secretly met many civil and military officials, hoping that they could help Crown Prince Cheng’an take care of the country.

A while ago, the Crown Prince had taken over the morning court.

At this moment, Zhou Shiming was full of vigor and vitality. He did not look like he was seriously ill.

Some were happy while others were sad.

A portion of the officials were disappointed when they saw that Zhou Shiming was fine.

This was because the officials of the Crown Prince’s party were destined not to be placed in important positions for the time being.

As for how the Emperor’s health had improved, apart from certain people, no one knew.

Knowing that He Chuan liked peace and quiet, Zhou Shimin purposely suppressed the news.

…

“Bah! What is this? He doesn’t even know the rules of the Martial Arts Palace!”

A few more experienced palace maids in yellow were pushing a thin and weak palace maid in green.

“I’ve only been here for two days and don’t know the rules,” The thin and weak palace maid said with an aggrieved face while holding a comb in her hand.

“Oh, you still dare to play dumb! Don’t you know to give some money?!”

The yellow-clothed palace maid slapped the thin and weak green-clothed palace maid’s nest hair away and stepped on it with force!

“I don’t have money. It’s my meal!” The thin and weak green-clothed palace maid left two lines of tears.

She had just been sold to the palace by her family. She had no money on her and had been eating steamed cornbread all day.

She had thought that she would be better off if she was assigned to the martial arts practice palace, but who knew that it would become even worse?

Every time the meat was snatched away by the experienced palace maids in yellow clothes, she could only drink vegetable soup and nibble on her steamed cornbread.

It was a problem to eat her fill every day, not to mention practicing martial arts.

“In the future, you will clean the latrines in the Imperial Palace. If you don’t clean them properly, don’t even think about eating!”

No matter where they were, there would always be such small groups.

They bullied the weak and feared the strong. They specialized in bullying newbies.

“Eunuch He, the Emperor has issued an order. You can choose whoever you want!”

When the yellow-clothed palace maids saw the steward, the blue-robed old eunuch, come over, they quickly lowered their heads and stood in a row.

At the same time, they were very curious. The eunuchs and stewards here were respectful to a gray-robed eunuch.

It was really a little ridiculous.

The blue-robed old eunuch had a flattering smile on his face.

It was not surprising that the library pavilion had chosen eunuchs. The main point was that the other party had chosen palace maids, which were approved by the Emperor. It was simply out of this world.

Who asked him to be a favored person? Not only did the Emperor look at him differently, even the Crown Prince and Eldest Princess liked to go to the library pavilion.

If nothing unexpected happened, this Young Eunuch He would definitely be a prevalent person in the palace in the future. It was definitely not wrong to build a good relationship with him.

Before he entered the Martial Arts Practice Palace, He Chuan had already heard the movements inside.

He carefully observed the thin and weak palace maid in green and discovered that the palace maid was a young seedling who practiced martial arts.

Moreover, the encounter was very similar to his own.

She was also sold into the palace by his family. She had no power, no backing, no money, and was bullied every day.

Fortunately, he was a reincarnated person and had the system by his side. But this thin and weak palace maid in green did not have it.

Perhaps the same experience had touched his heart, or perhaps he did not want to bury her potential as a cultivator, He Chuan extended his hand and pointed.

“It’s her. Come with me to the library.”

“Hurry up and come over to greet Little Eunuch He! What are you waiting for?” The blue-robed old eunuch hurriedly waved at the thin and weak green-clothed palace maid.

The thin and weak green-clothed palace maid did not know what was going on, but the blue-robed old eunuch was in charge here, so she could not disobey him.

“Greetings, Young Eunuch He!”

“Pack your things and follow me to the Library!” He Chuan said softly with his hands behind his back.

“I have nothing!” The thin and weak palace maid shook her head. She slept on a straw mat at night, and the yellow-robed palace maid snatched away all the bedding.

“Send a set of bedding to the library, and two sets of clothes to change into.” He Chuan turned and left, and the thin and weak palace maid quickly followed.

“Don’t worry, Young Eunuch He. I’ll send it over later.” The blue-robed old eunuch sent He Chuan away with a smile. He turned around and began to reprimand the yellow-robed palace maids.

Perhaps this was the true situation in the palace.

Cold and cruel. Without strength and status, there would never be a day when they could make a name for themselves.

“What’s your name?” He Chuan asked.

“Cai Lian,” The thin and weak palace maid said softly.

She looked at He Chuan curiously. The gray-robed eunuch and the green-robed palace maid were the lowest servants in the palace.

She didn’t know how this gray-robed eunuch was able to make the managing eunuchs lower themselves. Moreover, she heard that the library pavilion only assigned eunuchs and there was no precedent for palace maids to go there.

“Do more work in the library pavilion and speak less. You can read the books on the outer room. You can’t flip through the books in the inner room and you can’t go to the forbidden area at the back of the mountain. Do you understand?” He Chuan suddenly recalled Eunuch Cui from back then, he had taught him the same lesson back then.

“I understand!” Cai Lian quickly said respectfully.

At least He Chuan was pleasant when he spoke, and they got along very well.

He didn’t look overbearing, nor did he scold or beat her up. It was hundreds of times better than in the martial arts palace.

Growl!

Her stomach started to growl at an inappropriate time.

“Your room is the outermost room. The library must be cleaned thoroughly. No matter what you see, you must keep it in your heart. There’s food in the dining hall in front, don’t waste it.” After He Chuan finished his instructions, he stopped caring about her, they would stay together for a long time, so he decided to observe her temperament first.
