Chapter 269 There’s Something Wrong with This Eunuch (25)
For the next period of time, Xu Zijie began to raid her bedroom at night, but once it was daytime, he would turn back into the iron-faced and impartial steward.
This made her wonder if Xu Zijie was suffering from some serious mental illness.
Because Xu Zijie rejected a series of requests from Lihua, Lihua started to become a little nervous since then.
Li Hu began to become impatient with Li Hua's initial love for him.
Rather than watching her become so crazy all day long, he would have agreed when Cheng Qian proposed that day.
Now Cheng Qian began to focus all his attention on Sang Tian who was still in the palace.
After another night of Xu Zijie's personal education, Sang Tian was so tired that she didn't even want to lift her head.
Just at this time, Li Hu suddenly came to see her.
As soon as Li Hu came in and saw Sang Tian lying comfortably on the fine chaise longue, he immediately put on the look of a loving father.
Because he recognized this couch. It was the imperial concubine's couch that a vassal state had just presented to him as tribute not long ago. The couch was made of thousand-year-old immortal pine wood.
There is always a faint fragrance on the couch, which has a refreshing effect.
When he wanted to take a look before, he was stopped by the eunuchs in the palace.
Now it seems that the emperor is very fond of his useless concubine.
Sang Tian lay on the couch like a cat and didn't even look at him.
Even so, Li Hu was not angry but said in a gentle voice: "Yuan'er, your father has something to ask of you."
At this moment, Li Hu no longer had any of his previous airs.
When he said this, Sang Tian felt a sense of comfort rising in her body.
She knew that this was the resentment of the original owner, and when she heard Li Hu being so humble, the resentment in her body dissipated a lot.
Sang Tian raised her eyes and the palace maid standing beside her immediately stepped forward and stretched out her hand to help her up.
Sang Tian stood up and walked slowly to Li Hu, her eyes reflecting Li Hu's hideous face. "Father, it's a bit awkward to say that. We are a family, so just tell me what's wrong."
Upon hearing this, an unconcealable smile instantly appeared on Li Hu's face, and the beard on his lips trembled uncontrollably.
He tried to reach out and touch Sang Tian's face, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Sang Tian dodged it without a trace.
Li Hu withdrew his hand awkwardly and then took out a piece of paper from his sleeve.
Sang Tian took it and opened it. On the note was written some actions that Xu Zijie had done that were harmful to the emperor.
He didn't dare to hand it over in person, for fear of being discovered by Xu Zijie.
Li Hu observed the surroundings and made sure that no one was around before leaning over to Sang Tian's ear and whispering, "I had someone check this in secret. You must make sure His Majesty sees it."
Sang Tian smiled and agreed without noticing that there was a paper-cut figure pasted on the window.
Li Hu specifically reminded him again before leaving.
Sang Tian gave him a reassuring look, and Li Hu left with peace of mind.
Li Hu had just left when Ti Hua came.
Li Hua, who hadn't been seen for a few days, looked a lot older, and his whole aura revealed a sense of lethargy.
She ignored the palace maid's obstruction and strode in, sat opposite Sang Tian and stared at her.
Compared to Li Hu's beating around the bush, Li Hua was much more straightforward. She came straight to the point and said, "I already know whether you and Xu Zijie are secretly together."
Sang Tian smiled coquettishly and used a handkerchief to cover the corners of her lips that were raised. "What are you talking about, Sister Di? Manager Xu is an eunuch. It would be bad if His Majesty heard this."
