Chapter 247: Why did the eunuch come?
Zhongshun put the plates and bowls in the kitchen, turned around and walked back.
Before I had walked far, I heard hurried footsteps coming from behind.
Zhongshun looked back and saw the servant at the door trotting over, "Zhongshun, Zhongshun, quickly go and inform the Marquis that the eunuch Xiaodongzi from the palace is here to deliver the decree!"
"Who?" Zhongshun asked.
"It's eunuch Xiaodongzi from the palace who's here to deliver the imperial edict!" the servant said again.
Little Dongzi grandpa!
Zhongshun knew that the eunuch Xiaodongzi was the apprentice of Eunuch Yu.
He came to deliver...
What kind of decree might the emperor send to their Marquis Qinxing's Mansion?
Zhongshun didn't have time to think too much at this moment.
Zhongshun quickly ran away and ran all the way back to his little house.
Zhongshun pushed the door open and saw Leng Xian covered with a quilt with his eyes closed, as if he was asleep.
At this time, let alone falling asleep, even if he fainted, he must be woken up!
Zhongshun ran to the bedside and called out directly: "My Lord! My Lord!"
Leng Xian was not asleep, he just didn't want to open his eyes, didn't want to pay attention to anyone, and didn't want to pay attention to anything.
He is annoying!
He wished he could fall asleep!
Falling asleep can temporarily escape from all the annoying things in front of you.
Leng Xian closed his eyes and said nothing.
But Zhongshun dared not not to shout!
"My Lord... My Lord... please wake up, someone is coming from the palace!
It's Eunuch Xiao Dongzi who's here to deliver the decree!"
When Leng Xian heard Zhongshun say that eunuch Xiaodongzi had arrived, he opened his eyes suddenly and asked, "Who are you talking about? Eunuch Xiaodongzi?"
"Yes, that's right! It's Eunuch Xiaodongzi!" Zhongshun nodded repeatedly.
"What's the message?" Leng Xian asked hurriedly.
"How would I know? If the person at the door ran in and told me, I... I would come and report to the Marquis!" Zhongshun said.
Leng Xian lifted the quilt, sat up, and was about to get out of bed.
Suddenly thinking of something, Leng Xian lay back on the bed and covered himself with the quilt.
His mind was racing...
In the morning, the chief eunuch, Eunuch Yu, had come and saw that the mansion had been robbed and that he was sick in bed.
At this moment, the Emperor sent Eunuch Xiao Dongzi to deliver his decree. Will it be possible...
Could it be that the emperor gave something as a reward to help the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion, or the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion where the emperor's future daughter-in-law Leng Rongyue lived, which had encountered this disaster, to help the Marquis of Qinxing's Mansion overcome this difficulty?
should be.
Thinking of this, Leng Xian smiled.
He looked at Zhongshun and said, "Quick, go out and greet Eunuch Xiaodongzi. On the way, tell Eunuch Xiaodongzi that I am sick in bed and cannot go out to greet him!"
"Oh, yes! I understand!" Zhongshun took the order, turned around and ran out.
Leng Xian was lying on the bed, thinking about the upcoming imperial edict, feeling both excited and happy.
The emperor’s grace is so great!
It seems that although the emperor doesn't like me, he really looks at his daughter Leng Rongyue differently!
When he learned that the mansion of Marquis Qinxing had been robbed, he was afraid that his future daughter-in-law would be wronged, so he hurriedly sent people to give rewards.
It seems that from now on, I really have to take good care of my eldest daughter!
The relationship between father and daughter should also be maintained well.
It seems that his career and the wealth and glory for the rest of his life will all depend on his eldest daughter!
Leng Xian is dreaming about getting married here, thinking about good things!
On the other side, Zhongshun ran to the gate to greet eunuch Xiaodongzi who came to deliver the imperial edict.
Xiao Dongzi sat in the carriage calmly, waiting, neither anxious nor panicked.
It was not until Zhongshun came out jogging that Xiaodongzi slowly got down from the carriage.
Zhongshun greeted eunuch Xiaodongzi and walked into the marquis's mansion.
Zhongshun thought to himself that Eunuch Yu had come once in the morning and did not bring the emperor's order of punishment.
Eunuch Yu saw everything that happened in the mansion when he arrived.
After returning to the palace, the situation of the Marquis' Mansion will be reported to the Emperor.
The matter of missing the morning court...should...be over now, right?
Now the imperial edict has come from the palace, could it be... a reward?
But...it doesn't look like it?
There was only one eunuch, Eunuch Xiaodongzi, who delivered the imperial eunuch's orders, and there were two young eunuchs following behind him.
Then there was a coach and a driver;
Xiaodongzi, the other two, had nothing in their hands except whisks.
Zhongshun has a bad feeling.
However, he could not see any joy or anger on eunuch Xiaodongzi's face. As a servant, he did not dare to ask more questions. He just accompanied him carefully and led the way.
Xiao Dongzi also put on airs and was too lazy to talk to Zhongshun, who was a commoner.
The four of them walked in silently.
Marquis Qinxing is a marquis after all, and this is a marquis's mansion after all, with plenty of tall buildings and large houses. How come this Zhongshun led me around and ended up in front of such a small house!
What does this mean?
Xiao Dongzi looked at Zhongshun in surprise, "Where... is this place?"
Zhongshun hurriedly bowed and replied: "To answer your question, here... this is my little room."
"Your house?
Why did you bring our family to your house?" said the young master unhappily.
Zhongshun saw that Xiaodongzi looked unhappy, and hurriedly explained: "My Lord, you don't know that the courtyards of the masters and the study of the Marquis... were all robbed... That... was really empty!
There's nothing left inside!
The Marquis… The Marquis is ill again, so… he has to… recuperate in my little… little room… uh….”
After hearing what Zhongshun said, Xiao Dongzi looked at Zhongshun again, and nodded after a long while, "Okay, then lead us in."
"Yes, yes!" Zhongshun took a few quick steps and reached out to push the door open.
Xiao Dongzi flicked his whisk and walked in.
