Chapter 586: Use of the Inner Palace Experts
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Grand Palace of Wanning City was a huge structure that had only been completed after the passage of three dynasties. It was said that there were hundreds of palaces, thousands of buildings, and countless rooms here. The most muddle-headed Emperor of the dynasties had more than 4,000 concubines and tens of thousands of palace servants at one point. All of them lived in this huge palace, and yet, many of the halls were actually unoccupied.
There was also a rumor that there was once an assassin organization that used a Herculean effort to infiltrate the palace to assassinate the Emperor. However, because there were too many residences for the Emperor and the palace was too big, the group of assassins searched inside for ten days and ten nights but could not find the Emperor. In the end, because they were so hungry that their limbs went weak, they were discovered by the sweeping servants and captured.
Meatbail had told All Yu this rumor, but Ah Yu had reservations about it. The main reason was that All Yu did not believe that anyone could be so stupid. It was fine if one person was stupid, but if a group of people were stupid together, how idiotic must they be?
However, from this, it could be seen how big the palace was.
“Big Brother All You, 1 heard that the imperial garden in the palace is super big and especially beautiful. There are many expensive flowers and plants inside. 1 want to take a look. Is that okay?” Ah Yu shook Qin Huai’s arm and behaved like a little girl acting cute.
Qin Huai looked at Eunuch Chang De.
When Eunuch Chang De heard that they were going to the Imperial Garden, he heaved a sigh of relief. If they were going to other places, he had to consider if that place could be entered. But if they were only going to the Imperial Garden, it was naturally possible.
“Please follow me.” Eunuch Chang De led the way. The group walked straight for more than an hour before they saw the words Imperial Garden.
“The Imperial Garden is really far. If I want to come and look at the flowers, 1 have to walk so far.” Ah Yu shook her head and said regretfully, “Looks like it’s not good to have a big house. Everything takes time and delays things too much.”
Qin Huai continued, “Yes, it’s better to be smaller.”
Eunuch Chang De:”…”
You make it sound like the two of you can live here.
Many people wanted to come in but couldn’t. However, these two ignorant children were still commenting about the things they didn’t like. It could be seen that they were really too young and did not understand the value of the palace.
After walking for more than an hour, All Yu actually felt that she was fine and was not tired. However, her goal for this trip was to find someone, not to really enjoy the scenery here.
She pretended to hammer her waist and bent down to rub her legs. “Big Brother All You, I’m tired from walking. Let’s rest here, okay?”
“Okay.”
Ah Yu added, “Grandpa Eunuch, we’re a little thirsty. Can you help us find some water?”
Eunuch Chang De:”…” What kind of address was Grandpa Eunuch?!
However, why did it feel a little sweet? It must be because he was old. A child’s innocent address could actually cause his emotions to fluctuate.
Eunuch Chang De asked the palace maid that followed them to look for water. While she was gone, Ah Yu said that she was hungry, so he could only arrange for another palace maid to look for food.
In the end, only Eunuch Chang De was left.
“Grandpa Eunuch, I feel a little cold. What do you think? I wonder if there’s a cloak somewhere that I can wear.”
If Eunuch Chang De still could not react, he would really be stupid.
This little girl actually wanted to send everyone around her away. What was she trying to do?
Ah Yu blinked and looked at Eunuch Chang De with an innocent gaze. “Grandpa Eunuch, are you really not cold?”
A cold wind suddenly blew over from somewhere. Eunuch Chang suddenly felt goosebumps on his arms.
There was no need to think to know that it was definitely an inner Qi expert hiding somewhere. He was deliberately reminding him to follow the little girl’s words.
Eunuch Chang De immediately smiled and said, “I do feel a little cold. I’ll go find some cloaks then. Wait here and don’t go anywhere else, understand?”
“I know. We’re not going anywhere. We’re just in the imperial garden,” Ah Yu replied obediently.
After Eunuch Chang De left, All Yu and Qin Huai looked at each other. Ah Yu mouthed “one, two, three”.
When they shouted “three”, a handful of beans shot out from their hands and headed in two different directions.
Whoosh—
The beans disappeared into thin air. There was no sound of the beans falling to the ground.
Ah Yu clapped her hands. “Come out. We all saw you!”
The experts hiding in those two places could only appear.
Ah Yu immediately became happy. “1 knew it. There will definitely be experts hiding in the inner palace. The stories were indeed not lying to me.”
The two Inner Palace experts:”?”
Are you playing with us?
“His Majesty agreed to let us look around, but walking is too tiring, and the carriage is too slow. Moreover, we’re not familiar with His Majesty, so it’s a little embarrassing to use his carriage. Also, Teacher Chi Jia was stopped outside the Qinchen Palace, so we want to ask you for help.” All Yu pressed her palms together and made a pleading gesture. “Your lightness technique must be very good. Please bring us to the northwest corner. It’s about three miles away. Don’t worry, we won’t let you travel for nothing.”
She opened her hands and two very exquisite jade stones fell to the ground.
“Is this ok?”
The two Inner Palace experts:”…”
This was the first time in so many years that they were being treated as human carriages..
