Chapter 30 Punishment
"Master Su asked the younger one to ask the father-in-law if the news that the little emperor summoned Yan Yingyuan back to Beijing is true!"

"Don't worry, you go back and tell Mr. Su that this news is absolutely true. I believe that this secret decree has already reached Yan Yingyuan's hands, and Yan Yingyuan will bring his troops back to Beijing soon!"

A muffled voice came from the corner of the noisy market, but soon disappeared in the noisy market.One person was hiding in the dark corner of the street, with his back to the window, he seemed to be talking to himself, while still looking around.Another voice came from the window.No one would have noticed the conversation in the corner without looking closely.

"Chen An's mouth is very strict. If I hadn't played a trick, I wouldn't have gotten the news out of his mouth!" After a while, I heard a voice coming from the window again, and said softly, "By the way, this There has been a lot of rumors in the palace for a while, and Chen An has obviously become suspicious of the people around him, if there is nothing serious recently, try not to contact me again!"

"Eunuch Tian, ​​it's a critical moment now. The whole palace depends on Eunuch to pass on the news. If Eunuch let go of it at this moment, I'm afraid."

"Stop fooling me with such words, I don't believe that you don't have other eyeliners in the palace, and I don't need to worry about general things in the palace. You and I both know why I took such a big risk for it? I don't want big things If you die before you succeed, no amount of glory and wealth will be able to bear it!"

"Eunuch Tian, ​​if there is no risk, how can there be such a big reward?"

"Huh!" A cold snort came from the window, and then he said lightly, "You have to know that Mr. Su and I are grasshoppers on the same rope. If something happens to one of us, the other will not feel good. You go back. Tell Mr. Su that I will keep an eye on you in the palace, and if there is any big event, I will notify him in time, but please don’t contact me anymore recently!"

"Okay, I'll take your words to Mr. Su!" A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the man on the street corner had a slightly ugly expression on his face.After carefully looking around, he tidied up his clothes and slowly walked out from the corner of the street.

"Hmph!" As soon as this person left, another figure flashed past and quickly walked out from the corner of the street.After sneaking a peek at the man's back and the window not far away, he quickly lowered his head and dodged into the distance.

Inside the palace, it was a bit dull at the moment.When passing by the main hall, everyone was cautious, for fear of making any noise.Everyone knows that since the emperor fell ill, his temper has completely changed from before.The emperor, who used to be gentle to his servants, has become more and more irritable now, and he may be punished if he is not careful.These days, people who are severely punished can stand in a long line.

But at this moment, inside the main hall, it was not as scary as outsiders imagined.Zhao Yuan was sitting leisurely on a chair at the moment, holding a fruit in one hand and munching slowly while reading the imperial memorials and the secret reports handed over by the Jin Yiwei.

"Chen An, come, see what this is?"

"I dare not!" Seeing the secret report that Zhao Yuan handed over suddenly, Chen An broke out in a cold sweat.Having been in the palace for so many years, although Chen An has always been depressed and has not had much contact with the upper class, he still knows the basic rules.That was the secret report handed over by Jin Yiwei, even if he had the courage to read it lightly, even if the emperor asked him to read it, if he really read it without knowing the current affairs, he might lose his head sometime up.

"I told you to read it, you can just read it, what are you talking about!" Throwing the secret report in his hand to Chen An, Zhao Yuan said coldly, "Chen An, open it and have a look!"

"The slave dare not, the slave dare not!"

"I order you to open it and have a look!"

"This is, my slave obeys the order!" Chen An took the secret report from Zhao Yuan's hand respectfully, gritted his teeth, and opened the secret report with a little anxiety.After seeing the content inside, his expression changed instantly.His whole body couldn't help but tremble, his legs softened, and he collapsed to the ground.

"Your Majesty, slave, this slave deserves death, please be merciful, Your Majesty!"

"You really deserve to die, Chen An, you disappoint me so much!" Looking at Chen An who was kneeling on the ground in cold sweat, Zhao Yuan gave him a cold look and said lightly, "If I hadn't been to those around me after I was assassinated, People are conducting investigations, but I still don’t know that your Eunuch Chen has secretly gathered such a large force!"

"Eight adopted sons and thirteen attendants, they are called here and there every day. Eunuch Chen is such a powerful official!"

"Slave, you deserve to die. Slave gathers people to do things for His Majesty conveniently!"

"Still quibbling!" He couldn't help but kicked Chen An, and Zhao Yuan said coldly, "In just a few months, you have put on such a big show, and you said it was for me. Even so. It can be explained, but how can you explain why you accepted tens of thousands of taels in bribes in such a short period of time? Eunuch Chen, you are really good at making money!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, this money, this money is the filial piety of your servants. The servants have never leaked any information about His Majesty. The servants are loyal to Your Majesty and will never betray Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"That's enough, no more sophistry! Come here!" As Zhao Yuan shouted loudly, the guards outside the room immediately opened the door and entered, kneeling on the ground respectfully.

"Drag Chen An to me, give me a hundred sticks, and beat me hard. Also, don't allow him to use his internal strength to resist!"

"This" looked at Zhao Yuan, who had a murderous look on his face, and then at Chen An, who was kneeling on the ground looking miserable. The guard's face changed slightly, and he immediately reacted, and hurriedly replied, "Yes!"

"Pull it off!"

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" After being dragged away by the guards, Chen Anyou couldn't help but yelled loudly until he was dragged outside and beat him fiercely.The court rod was one hundred, and Chen An did not say a word during the whole process, nor did he use his internal strength to resist.

After the court rod was completed, Chen An lay on the ground without responding for a long time. Although his eyes were open, they were dim and dull, as if all the energy and energy in his body had been sucked away.

"Eunuch Chen has been punished for being favored so much. Just now, he was in full glory, but he was knocked down in the blink of an eye. Sigh, life is getting worse and worse for us slaves!"

Seeing Chen An's miserable appearance, the expressions of the servants around him changed.How favored Chen An is, everyone in the entire palace knows.That is the number one celebrity in front of the emperor, who waits on him all day long, and the relationship is solid.Even if it was like this, Chen An would be beaten like this as soon as he turned his back on him, what a tragedy!
"Oh, who's to say it's not!" A sigh came from the servants, and one of them whispered, "If this continues, what will we do in the future!"

"Okay, don't talk anymore, be careful to let people hear you, then we will have to eat and walk around!"

As night fell, everyone fell asleep, only Chen An was lying in the small, damp room with his eyes wide open and speechless.The whole person's eyes were dull, and there was only a look of misery on his face.

Thinking of everything he had experienced before, Chen An was even more sad.A few months ago, he was favored by His Majesty and brought with him. From a person at the bottom, he became a superintendent with real power in the palace.I thought that from then on, I would become prosperous and prosperous, but these days I was indeed trusted, and my whole person became more and more energetic.Who would have thought that such a thing would happen, and things changed in a blink of an eye.

What made him even more indignant was that he was nice to the people around him on weekdays, but who would have thought that all these people were white-eyed wolves.Seeing that I was down and out, no one came.The eighth righteous son and the thirteenth attendant used to show great hospitality to him, but now thinking of this, Chen An felt even more resentful.

"Chen An!"

A voice calling his name suddenly came from beside his ear, but then Chen An shook his head, probably because he heard it wrong.Chen An couldn't help laughing at himself, thinking about how he looks now, who else would come to see him.It's just that Chen An had a faint feeling, how could this voice be so familiar!

"Chen An!"

The familiar voice came again, Chen An shuddered all over, and immediately stood up.After seeing the person coming, the whole person couldn't help getting excited, struggling to get up and kneel down.

"Okay, since you are injured and inconvenient, you don't have to perform this big gift."

"Your Majesty? How could you?"

"Why, is it accidental, do you think I won't use you anymore?"
