Chen Huai left the study and stood in the corridor of the palace with his hands on his hips, his face looking unspeakable.

Why on earth did he have to stay here and suffer such a humiliation? This emperor was moody and so damn hard to please. Now he was even mocking him for not having any masculine charm.

Well, you think I’m unattractive, right? I’ll show you today…

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the harem.

There were so many beauties, maybe they were chasing butterflies, writing poems, feeding fish, playing the piano, and when they saw me coming, they turned their heads and called me Eunuch Chen sweetly, tsk…

There were all kinds of girls, fat or thin. Just thinking about it, Chen Huai's anger dissipated a lot.

Which one should I look at first?

Chen Huai was hesitating when Cui E, a girl from Ya Lan Palace, came towards him. Cui E came over happily to greet him:

"Congratulations on your seal and promotion to a higher position"

Chen Huai took out some silver from his bosom and stuffed it into Cui'e's hand. Fearing that she would be electrocuted, he could only quickly stroke her soft little hand:

"Thank you girl"

Cui'e thought it was an accidental touch, her face slightly reddened: "Please come in quickly, the virtuous concubine has been talking about you a lot these days."

"Really? Then I must go and pay my respects to the queen first."

Chen Huai laughed, isn't this called charm? Rong Cheng, look, your woman is still thinking about me!

When he followed Cui'e into Yalan Palace and saw her closing the palace door from the outside, and Concubine Xian lying on the chaise longue with a sullen face, stroking her nails, Chen Huai's heart skipped a beat.

Why does he have a bad feeling?

Sure enough, Concubine Xian glanced over coldly with her beautiful eyes:

"Isn't this Chen Dugong, a popular figure in front of the emperor? How come you have time to come to the Yalan Palace? This palace is too small to accommodate such a big Buddha like you."

This is so weird, as if he was caught cheating. Chen Huai doesn't like this tone. A beauty should be understanding and gentle.

The corners of his lips curled up into the best arc for talking about love, and he squatted down:

"Your Majesty, please don't say that. I came to pay my respects to you as soon as I finished my work."

Wei Jiayun's heart skipped a beat when he was hooked by his deep eyes. He quickly avoided his gaze and said coldly:

"Don't think I don't know. You also designed a flower ornament for Zhong Shuyi, and even wrote a poem for it."

"Emerging from the mud without getting stained, washing in the clear water without dying, Mr. Chen, you have great literary talent"

Uh...what's wrong with Zhong Ruolan? Isn't she the most noble person who disdains to associate with others? How come this poem has spread?

Chen Huai's face was a little stiff, and he smiled brightly:

"Haha, the Queen and Shuyi each have their own merits, both are stunningly beautiful."

Wei Jiayun pushed him away with an unhappy look on his face, stood up from the couch, and said in a tone: "Mr. Chen, you really know how to please women."

A sentence that was just made up by someone like Zhong Shuyi could be used to show off, and yet he kept it in his heart. Wei Jiayun felt that he was a little pathetic.

Is it because life in the harem is too lonely that they would actually focus their attention on a smooth-talking eunuch?

After not hearing the person behind her talking for a long time, she turned around in annoyance, but was surprised to find Chen Huai holding a brush and writing something at the table with a focused expression.

She walked over with frowned brows, and just as she was about to speak, she was attracted by the words on the table, which were written in an elegant and graceful manner.

Slowly recite: "She is unrivaled in the world and the most fragrant in the world"

After Chen Huai finished writing the last stroke, he blew away the ink and handed it to her.

Wei Jiayun stared at him in amazement and asked softly, "Is it for me?"

Chen Huai curled his lips and smiled: "Yes, the beauty of the peony, I am not lying"

Xianfei is gorgeous and Shuyi is gentle, both of them are rare beauties, but if Chen Huai were asked to comment on the most beautiful woman in the world, he would have another choice.

They are all rich and beautiful flowers in the world, and that flower blooms in the fairy palace, and there is no other flower as beautiful as it in the world.

Wei Jiayun happily held the poem in his hand, glanced at Chen Huai, and sighed secretly that it was a pity.

With such talent and looks, if he wasn't a eunuch, he would have driven countless women in the capital crazy!

She suppressed the slight movement in her heart and looked up at Chen Huai: "Eunuch Chen, what else can you do? Tell me."

Chen Huai smiled mischievously and blinked: "The slave will say more, Madam, are you sure you want to see it?"

This kind of romantic and dissolute behavior made the usually steady Concubine Xian laugh. She flicked his shoulder with a handkerchief and spoke in an unconsciously coquettish tone:

"I don't care. If you don't come up with one thing today, you won't be able to leave this Yalan Palace."

Chen Huai saw her persistent look and became a little interested:

"Okay, Madam Bo, please smile, and I will draw a picture for you."

Make a painting?

Seeing that the sun was shining, the sky was blue and the clouds were white, and the flowers outside the temple were blooming brightly, Chen Huai suggested going outside to paint.

In this way, he placed the virtuous concubine in the middle of the grass, holding a golden fan and staring at the peony in front of her.

"Hey, are you done? My hands are sore."

Concubine Xian felt a little regretful. She just wanted to kill time, so why did she find such a tiring job?

Chen Huai smiled slightly, lowered his head and painted patiently: "It will be done soon"

At this time, a man suddenly walked in from the palace gate. When Concubine Xian and the palace maids saw him, they hurried to salute him, but were stopped by the man with his hand.

After making a gesture to keep quiet, Rong Cheng slowly walked behind the new seal holder of the Imperial Household Department.

Chen Huai was quite absorbed in the painting. After a long while, he wiped the sweat off his face and looked at the painting in his hand with satisfaction: "It's done."

Looking up, he found that the palace maid and the virtuous concubine opposite were looking behind him in panic. Chen Huai turned his head abruptly and suddenly saw the face that he called the most beautiful face in the fairy palace.

After realizing what was happening, Chen Huai immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you."

The others also followed suit and saluted.

Rong Cheng waved his hand and took the painting from Chen Huai. He used bold colors and agile brushstrokes to fully depict the gorgeous beauty of Concubine Xian. He even painted a peony next to it with a profound meaning, but it was overshadowed by Concubine Xian.

Rong Cheng moved his gaze to Chen Huai's face:

"I didn't know that my eunuch seal holder is better than the court painter. Is Concubine Xian so beautiful in your heart?"

Chen Huai bowed and said, "The virtuous concubine is naturally stunningly beautiful. I am just showing off my ugliness. How can I compare to the painter's superb skills?"

Stunningly beautiful?

These four words sounded strangely harsh to Rong Cheng, and he looked at Concubine Xian with some displeasure.

It happened that at this time, Concubine Xian walked between the two of them. She had long been curious and looked at the painting with an expression of uncontrollable surprise on her face:

“This is such a great painting.”

She had never seen such a painting method before. She dared to say that even the best painters in the capital could not paint such a masterpiece. It was simply a work of art.

Rong Cheng suddenly lifted Concubine Xian's chin and said to her in shock:

"I feel that this painting is not vivid enough and does not depict the charm of my beloved concubine. How about this? I will stay in Yalan Palace tonight and appreciate it carefully."

While saying this, his eyes glanced at Chen Huai.
