THE REVENGE OF FOX CONSORT
CHAPTER 31. A gift from allies
***Emperor Wei's palace***
It was late at night, but Emperor Wei still had no rest. Emperor Wei was sitting on a throne and was receiving a report from Xu Feng, the head of the palace guard.
Invitational guests present at the dinner are allowed to return home after being examined and interrogated carefully by the guards.
Right now Emperor Wei was furious that the bodyguards had yet to find the palace ladyboy who had deliberately spilled wine onto Ying Ying's hanfu as well as the mysterious assassin.
The regulations in the Wei Emperor Palace were extremely strict. Not just anyone can come and meet directly with Emperor Wei or the members of the Kingdom of Wei who live in the palace.
They had to send an invitation to ask permission to meet first. If they have permission, they are allowed to enter the palace.
When they arrived and met whom, it would be recorded by the eunuchs who served as documentation so that Emperor Wei could examine them at any time and know for sure who had met the members of the Wei Kingdom.
While Queen Wen had the right to send out a personal invitation to call someone to meet her at the palace. Of course Queen Wen's personal eunuch would inform her of the invitation from Queen Wen to the palace guards.
In addition to the right to send a personal invitation, Queen Wen has the right to issue the Queen's Decree. The Queen's Decree must not be related to the politics or government of Emperor Wei. Emperor Wei was the only person who could overturn the Queen's Decree.
"How could the murderer be free to roam the palace? Aren't you guys always patrolling to keep the palace safe?" ask Emperor Wei.
"For instance, Emperor Wei! We had checked every part of the palace that could be examined carefully, but could not find the man, while the palace lady-in-waiting had also disappeared. The servant suspected the murderer was hiding inside the back palace and the palace lady had already been killed," Xu Feng replied.
#The back palace is the part of the palace reserved for the empress of the Chinese emperor, concubines, female servants, and eunuchs#people#
#The term "hougong" meaning harem, "Hougong" comes from "hou-kung" which literally means "back palace"#
Emperor Wei also had the same suspicions as Xu Feng. The guards were only allowed to patrol the security within a certain distance of the rear palace.
Emperor Wei was one of the normal men who had the right to enter the back palace. It was to avoid the concubines of Emperor Wei who lived in the back palace, making inappropriate relations with other men, he said, eunuchs were allowed to go in and out of the back palace because they were not normal men anymore.
"Find the body of the palace lady and watch secretly the lady-in-waiting or the eunuch acting suspicious!" emperor Wei's Order.
"Okay, Emperor Wei!" replied Xu Feng.
When Xu Feng walked out of the room, Eunuch Cao brought Physician Huo to meet Emperor Wei.
"Hamba saluted Emperor Wei!" said Physician Huo while kneeling.
"Stand!"
"How is Li Chang Le?" ask Emperor Wei.
"When the servant arrived at the Residence of Prince Wei Bu Yi, Physician Chen was treating Miss Li Chang Le so that the servant treated the wound on the shoulder of the servant Miss Li Chang Le," replied Physician Huo.
"What is the result of the examination of Physician Chen?" ask Emperor Wei.
"Miss Li Chang Le had a high fever and was still unconscious. Physician Chen concocted a medicinal pill for him," Physician Huo replied.
"Goodoo. The medicinal pill of Physician Chen was extremely efficacious. Li Chang Le could definitely recover and recover in a short time," Emperor Wei said.
"You can go home and rest!"
"Thank you Emperor Wei!" replied Physician Huo.
As Physician Huo walked out of the room where Emperor Wei was, Physician Huo passed by Eunuch Ma. Physician Huo knew Eunuch Ma was getting orders from Queen Wen to wait for him.
"Eunuch Ma!"
"Tabib Huo!"
The two of them greeted each other, then continued their journey. However, a small piece of paper from Physician Huo's hand moved into Eunuch Ma's hand in a quick motion unnoticed by those around them.
Physician Huo could not meet Queen Wen without cause, after all it was already late at night so Physician Huo wrote down what Queen Wen wanted to know in that piece of paper.
A thin smile decorated the corner of Queen Wen's lips at a glance after reading a piece of paper from Physician Huo.
"Burn!" queen Wen's Order.
Eunuch Ma took the piece of paper and burned it with fire from a burning candle. After the piece of paper burned to the ground with no rest, Eunuch Ma blew the candle out.
Plaque!
A loud slap echoed inside Queen Wen's room. Currently inside the room there was only Queen Wen and Eunuch Ma alone.
Eunuch Ma knelt before Queen Wen. "Sorry Queen Wen! Servant failed to do the job!" eunuch Ma said as he lowered his head.
Queen Wen tried to restrain her anger from slapping a second slap in the face of Eunuch Ma, the eunuch she loved so much.
"What about that palace ladyboy?" ask Queen Wen.
"Don't worry, Queen Wen. The servant killed him" replied Eunuch Ma.
The only witness who could incriminate Queen Wen is dead, while Tan Xiang and Li Chang Le did not see the face of Eunuch Ma at all so there was no evidence that would show Queen Wen was the mastermind behind the assassination attempt on Li Chang Le.
"I don't want this mistake repeated! Stand up!" queen Wen said.
"Thank you Queen Wen!" answer Eunuch Ma.
Queen Wen felt pity to see Eunuch Ma's cheeks flushed red from her slap. There were even scratches from Queen Wen's fingernails there.
"Hurry and get the ointment!" queen Wen's Order.
Eunuch Ma took the ointment medicine and gave it to Queen Wen. Queen Wen treated the wound on Eunuch Ma's cheek.
"Your handsome face must never leave a scar. I don't like it!" queen Wen said.
Both of Queen Wen's hands held onto Eunuch Ma's face and touched her gently.
"The wound must have healed quickly because Queen Wen treated it" said Kasim Ma.
Eunuch Ma carried Queen Wen and laid her on the bed.
"Hamba will serve Queen Wen with all his heart" Kasim Ma said.
Queen Wen felt her heart pounding and body feeling hot as Eunuch Ma undressed one by one.
Eunuch Ma kissed Queen Wen aggressively. Queen Wen reciprocated by tightly hugging Eunuch Ma's body. Eunuch Ma's kiss and touch made Queen Wen addicted.
Queen Wen had not been in intimate contact with Emperor Wei for a long time, so the ministry of Eunuch Ma made Queen Wen seem to go back to her youth.
Eunuch Ma was not a real eunuch, but rather a normal man and was a gift from Queen Wen's ally to help Queen Wen become the queen consort of the Wei Kingdom.
