Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 100

The beauty said no, but her hands gently rubbed on his chest.

What a duplicity woman.

"Lu Hao, if you dare to lie to me, I will steal your heart!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu made a heart-digging gesture on his chest.

Lu Hao looked at the stunning beauty in front of him and twitched his index finger. If he wasn't worried that his identity as a fake eunuch would be exposed, he would have executed her on the spot.

"Lingyu, you have to think clearly, I am a eunuch!"

Lu Hao reminded.

"Whether you are a real eunuch or a fake eunuch, I have recognized you!"

Xuanyuan Lingyu responded seriously.

From her tone, she seemed to suspect that she was a fake eunuch, but she didn't seem to have any flaws!

Lu Hao was a little unsure. He was a little worried but also a little hopeful.

At this moment, a sound like smoke came from outside.

"Sir Lu, the Prime Minister and other lords are here!"

"Uh! Prime Minister? Let him wait a moment. I will come out after getting dressed."

Lu Hao responded loudly.

He pointed towards Xuanyuan Lingyu behind the tent and motioned for her to leave from there.

He quickly got up and put on his clothes.

Xuanyuan Lingyu smiled sweetly and quickly obeyed and left from behind.

After Lu Hao put on his Shangguan uniform, he went out to greet him in person, looking very formal and solemn.

"Master Prime Minister, I wonder what kind of wind brought you here?"

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"Master Lu, please pay me my respects as an old minister!"

"Lord Lu, please accept my bow!"

"..."

Yu Qian led a group of officials and kneeled down as he spoke.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister, this is serious, please don't scare me!"

"My lords, if you have something to say, I can't bear such a heavy courtesy from you!"

Lu Hao quickly supported him and signaled to all the adults that there was no need to be polite.

"Master Lu, thank you for saving the emperor, you are our benefactor!"

"Yes, I heard that you carried the emperor on your back to avoid assassins. We admire this friendship and loyalty!"

"Between life and death, Mr. Lu is able to sacrifice his life for righteousness, and I admire him so much!"

"..."

Yu Qian and other adults expressed their gratitude to Lu Hao for saving the emperor.

"Prime Minister, gentlemen, rescuing the emperor is what a slave should do. How dare you bother all the gentlemen to come and visit? I am here to salute you."

Lu Hao bowed.

"Master Lu, we won't say anything more. We learned that you were injured and we sent you some good supplements. We hope you will recover soon!"

After Yu Qian finished speaking, several servants behind him immediately presented the prepared brocade boxes.

The other adults also took out the things they had prepared and handed them to the girl Ruyan Rushuang beside Lu Hao.

"Since it is the good intention of your lords, it would be disrespectful for me to reject it."

Lu Hao readily accepted it.

"Master Lu, please take good care of yourself. I won't disturb your rest and will leave for now."

Yu Qian said, bowed his hands and left with a large group of officials.

In the camp, Sister Ruyan Rushuang's eyes were shining, and she was counting the gifts and supplements that had been sent to her.

Lu Hao came in to take a look, smiled and joked: "Two little money fans, what good things did you find again?"

"Master Lu, those adults are really rich. They gave you red ginseng, Ganoderma lucidum, and Cordyceps..."

Ruyan was very excited.

"There are also emerald jade bracelets, ruby ​​rings, jade Ruyi, agate bracelets..."

Rushuang was also very surprised. "Oh! So many things? It seems that those officials are really rich!"

Lu Hao was a little surprised.

In fact, it is not difficult to understand at all.

This time Lu Hao saved the emperor, he was the emperor's savior, and his career was just around the corner.

If you don’t take this opportunity to fawn over, when will you wait?

"The brocade box has everyone's names on it. Do you want to make a list?"

Ruyan asked.

"Of course. With so many things, I at least need to know who sent them so that I can repay them in the future!"

Lu Hao nodded slightly.

It is human nature to reciprocate courtesy.

Lu Hao had no intention of swallowing the belongings of these officials.

After all, Lu Hao takes money very lightly.

As the prime minister of the dynasty, Yu Qian led all civil and military officials to visit Lu Hao, and he had already set an example.

When the other officials saw this, they could only follow suit and present gifts to Lu Hao.

Even Dugu Shenyong, the Empress Dowager, and the concubines in the harem all sent gifts.

For a moment, Ruyan Rushuang's hand cramped when receiving the gift.

It took the two sisters an afternoon to sort out the gift list.

Lu Hao looked at the list and found that the priceless emerald jade bracelet was actually a gift from the Prime Minister.

The rare ruby ​​ring was given by Xu Liting, the newly appointed Minister of Civil Affairs.

Lu Hao went through it roughly and had a general impression of the gifts given by everyone, so that he could do things in the future.

As for these things, Lu Hao means that most of them will be paid to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and a small amount will be kept as his own reserve fund.

After all, he asked Xia Wei to recruit and train people, which all cost money.

It is said that the emperor sobered up once in the afternoon. Because he needed to rest, the empress dowager ordered that no one was allowed to visit.

After being rescued, Eunuch Hai was lucky enough to save his life. However, the situation was still very dangerous and he had not yet passed the critical period.

Because the emperor was assassinated, this incident touched the nerves of the entire empire, and all departments operated efficiently.

The Empress Dowager ordered that the murderer must be severely punished. No matter who he is, once confirmed, the nine tribes will be destroyed!
Eunuch Yan chased the assassins and killed 63 assassins in total. Only two eighth-level masters managed to escape and were seriously injured.

Of course, some assassins found themselves unable to escape and committed suicide by taking poison.

In other words, there is no one left alive in this matter.

"Eunuch Yan, the Ai family is not asking you to kill many assassins, but they want to know who is the mastermind behind it?"

The Queen Mother asked with a dark face.

"Reporting to the Queen Mother, these people are well-trained. Judging from the calluses on their hands and the scars on their bodies, they should be soldiers of the empire!"

Eunuch Yan answered truthfully.

"Soldiers of the Empire? Can you find out whose subordinates they are?"

The Queen Mother asked again.

"The empire has more than 200 million standing troops and more than 100 million reserve soldiers. It is very difficult to investigate. However, I am afraid there will not be that many people in the empire who dare to plot the assassination of the emperor."

Eunuch Yan responded in a deep voice.

"You mean...the person who planned this incident...has a strong background?"

The Empress Dowager frowned slightly, her eyes shining with wisdom.

"That's for sure. To assassinate the Emperor of the Empire, not many people dare to do such a thing."

Eunuch Yan nodded slightly.

"Then no other clues were found?"

The Queen Mother asked unwillingly.

"The slave is tracking the assassins. Although the martial arts of these assassins are uneven and mixed, and some people deliberately conceal their own martial arts, the slave still sees some clues for the Empress Dowager's reference."

Eunuch Yan responded.

"Speak, speak boldly, the Ai family will make their own decision!"

The Queen Mother urged.
