Chapter 304 Rescue
"Your Majesty, please save me. I know eunuchs like us are like pigs and dogs in the eyes of the nobles. If the nobles beat us to death, it is like killing a dog, but I don't want to die. Your Majesty is willing to save me, and my little life will be yours from now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do." Zhang Qingfeng still begged Wang Gongfei, wiping his tears.

When he spoke, his body trembled a little, trembling, looking extremely frightened.

Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, Concubine Wang Gong was thoughtful.

After a moment, he said to Zhang Qingfeng: "I know what to do. This eunuch wanted to do evil to me, and I beat him to death. Let's arrange the scene. You go and call someone over to collect the body."

Hearing Concubine Gong's words, Zhang Qingfeng stopped crying immediately, he knew that his goal had been achieved.

He just spoke, overtly and covertly signaling to Concubine Gong that for palace nobles like them, killing a eunuch is no different from killing a dog.

In other words, as long as Concubine Gong takes the matter to herself, Zhang Qingfeng can survive.

Concubine Gong quickly understood what Zhang Qingfeng meant, and directly took on the matter.

If the person was beaten to death by Zhang Qingfeng, then he would definitely be killed in battle, but if it was Concubine Gong who beat him to death, it would be just a slave. If he dies, he will die. Concubine Gong will not be blamed for the death of a eunuch.

"Thank you, ma'am, thank you for saving my life. From now on, the boy's life will belong to my majesty. I will do whatever my majesty asks me to do." Zhang Qingfeng hurriedly kowtowed to Concubine Gong to express his loyalty.

Although it's acting, you have to play a full set of acting, you have to act like it, and you have to act like the real thing.

In order to complete the task, Zhang Qingfeng also worked hard.

Having received Concubine Gong's promise, Zhang Qingfeng immediately ran towards the side door of Jingyang Palace.

While running, he also shouted for help.

Soon, several Dongchang eunuchs guarding the side gate of Jingyang Palace heard Zhang Qingfeng's shout.

Because men are not allowed in the palace at night, the eunuchs of Dongchang are the ones who protect the harem and patrol at night.

The imperial guards will be on duty in the palace during the day, but they will leave the palace and patrol outside the palace at night.

Therefore, the only thing Zhang Qingfeng can find now is the eunuch of Dongchang.

"What's going on? What are you yelling for?"

Soon, several Dongchang eunuchs came over, and then opened the side door of Jingyang Palace alone.

"Sir, what's wrong, someone broke into Concubine Gong's room. Concubine Gong is calling for help." Zhang Qingfeng said in a panic.

"What? Where? Take us there quickly." A eunuch from Dongchang hurriedly said to Zhang Qingfeng.

"My lords, come with me." Zhang Qingfeng said to the eunuchs of the East Factory.

Under Zhang Qingfeng's leadership, several Dongchang eunuchs soon came to Jingyang Palace, and then rushed into Concubine Gong's bedroom.

At this time Concubine Gong's room was lit with candlelight, illuminating the room very brightly, but at this moment she was in a state of "absence".

In front of Concubine Gong's bed, an old eunuch had fallen to the ground "I don't know whether he is alive or dead."

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" Several Dongchang eunuchs quickly came to Concubine Gong.

Upon hearing the Dongchang eunuch's question, Concubine Gong remained distracted and did not answer the eunuch's words.

Another eunuch then bent down to check the condition of the old eunuch on the ground.

"He's dead." After the inspection, the Dongchang eunuch said to his companions.

"Concubine Gong! Concubine Gong!" Several Dongchang eunuchs wanted to wake up Concubine Gong who was in a daze.

"Ah! Don't come here, don't come here." Concubine Gong seemed to have been greatly frightened, and kept hiding inside the bed.

"Your Majesty must have been frightened," said a Dongchang eunuch.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Qingfeng secretly praised Concubine Gong's acting skills. If he didn't know the whole story, he would really be deceived by Concubine Gong's acting skills.

At this time, Zhang Qingfeng was finally relieved, it seemed that Concubine Gong really wanted to save him.

If you don't want to save him, just stand up and correct Zhang Qingfeng.

The next thing was simple, and then, a eunuch from Dongchang hurriedly reported the matter to his superiors.

Not long afterward, Concubine Gong recovered from her absent-minded state, and said the matter "as it was".

It turned out that when Concubine Gong was preparing to go to bed, Old Eunuch Liu broke in and planned to do evil to Concubine Gong.

However, he was an old eunuch after all, so he was no match for Concubine Gong when he was old, and was strangled to death by Concubine Gong in the end.

What Concubine Gong said was well-founded, and the eunuchs of Dongchang soon believed her words.

No one would doubt that the old eunuch was killed by Zhang Qingfeng, because Zhang Qingfeng was just a child.

In fact, if his body hadn't been modified by the system, he might not be able to kill Old Eunuch Liu.

This incident quickly alarmed the higher authorities. Within a few hours, not only the Wanli Emperor came, but even the empress and empress dowager were alarmed.

Zhang Qingfeng also saw so many top dignitaries of Ming Dynasty appearing at the same time for the first time.

When Concubine Gong saw the emperor, empress dowager and others coming, she cried and told the story again.

Regarding what happened in Jingyang Palace, Emperor Wanli's attitude was very indifferent. He didn't have any feelings for Concubine Gong. On the contrary, because of Concubine Gong's son, he couldn't make his beloved son Zhu Changxun the crown prince.

Therefore, the Emperor Wanli at this time hated Concubine Gong very much, otherwise he would not have imprisoned her in Jingyang Palace.

He had to come only because what happened today was so bad.

Regarding this matter, he thought it was good that Concubine Gong was fine, and as for the eunuch, he died as soon as he died.

Compared with Emperor Wanli's attitude, the Empress Dowager was furious about this incident. She directly asked the emperor why Jingyang Palace didn't even have a senior eunuch and maid on duty, only a young eunuch aged twelve or thirteen.

If Concubine Gong hadn't strangled the old eunuch to death, Concubine Gong would probably be the one who died tonight.

Forced to do so, Wanli had no choice but to order that all the eunuchs and maids who were on duty in Jingyang Palace should be given [-] blows as a warning to others.

Zhang Qingfeng was not included in the punishment because of the meritorious service of the Savior.

Later, Emperor Wanli also ordered a team of Dongchang eunuchs to be dispatched to protect Jingyang Palace.

It can be said that Zhang Qingfeng escaped the death penalty this time because of Gong's help, but Concubine Gong also relied on this to get out of some difficulties.

People who can survive in the palace are definitely not good people, the difference is only the level of IQ and EQ.

Concubine Zheng, for example, is a representative of high emotional intelligence, as evidenced by the fact that Emperor Wanli, who was able to coax her, doted on her alone for decades.

After this incident, at least some of the court ladies and eunuchs in Jingyang Palace no longer dared to underestimate Concubine Gong. After all, Concubine Gong was the one who killed old eunuch Liu with her own hands.

After this incident, Zhang Qingfeng also became the personal eunuch beside Concubine Gong, and he only had to take care of Concubine Gong every day.

There is no need for him to do things like cleaning the toilet before.

"Thank you for your life-saving grace, the little one will definitely repay your mother like a cow and a horse in the future."

In Jingyang Palace, Zhang Qingfeng said to Concubine Gong with a grateful face.

At the beginning, Zhang Qingfeng never thought that Concubine Gong would really agree to save him, and he was prepared to lose his soul energy.

For a high-ranking nobleman in the palace, the life of a young eunuch is about the same as that of a dog.

If you save him, you will probably cause trouble for yourself, and it is normal for a person not to save him.

"Get up, don't say these words in the future, as long as you keep them in your heart." Concubine Gong said to Zhang Qingfeng.

Although she said so, it could be seen that she was very satisfied with Zhang Qingfeng's attitude.

Zhang Qingfeng's allegiance gave her a trustworthy subordinate in Jingyang Palace.

After she was imprisoned in Jingyang Palace by Wa, she was fine at first, but then the eunuchs and maids in Jingyang Palace paid less and less attention to her.

What she wanted the eunuchs and maids to do, the eunuchs and maids would pretend they didn't hear.

The reason why these eunuchs and maids treated her like this was because of Concubine Zheng's gesture. Compared with Concubine Gong, the eunuchs and maids were more afraid of offending Concubine Zheng.

She, who suffered from the warmth and coldness of human feelings, wanted to curry favor with her after a young eunuch came to Jingyang Palace, and the way she treated her respectfully brought her a bit of warmth at first.

But later, after seeing a group of big eunuchs almost killing the little eunuch because of this incident, she felt a little guilty towards the little eunuch.

This is why she would help after the little eunuch killed Eunuch Liu.

If it was someone else, she wouldn't help at all.
