Chapter 867: Chapter 867 To the Cold Palace to Perform Hard Labor_1

Honestly, many eunuchs and palace maids who saw him in the palace didn’t feel sympathy, but instead felt a sense of relief, as they had been bullied by Eunuch Su, not just for a day or two.

Upon hearing this, the emperor cast his gaze towards Eunuch Su.

"You offended the female physician from the National Teacher’s residence?"

As he spoke, his gaze became sharp. He had previously instructed Eunuch Su multiple times to bring the female physician into the palace without causing any trouble.

Because he had heard from the National Teacher before that although the female physician’s medical skills were exquisite, her temper was explosive, intolerant of any unpleasant words. If angered, she would administer poison direct, causing excruciating pain.

Hence, he was also cautious, which was why he had specially reminded Eunuch Su.

Yet, unexpectedly, Eunuch Su treated his words as if they were wind passing by his ear, and still managed to offend the female physician.

"Ah, ah, aah."

Eunuch Su tried to express something with his mouth while shaking his head vigorously.

Where had he offended the female physician? He had only looked at the girl a few extra times because she had a good figure. Moreover, he was thinking of the emperor’s welfare.

That female physician was adept at using poison. If he did not keep his guard up and she intended to harm the emperor, what then?

"Shut your mouth!"

The emperor, listening to his voice, which sounded like a quacking duck, gave a stern shout.

"You still dare to claim injustice before Us? If you hadn’t offended the female physician, would the National Teacher have someone send you back?"

The National Teacher Suyang’s temperament, didn’t he understand it? If Eunuch Su had merely said something to slightly upset the female physician, he would definitely have been the mediator, defusing the situation.

But now, Suyang unceremoniously returned him, which clearly showed Eunuch Su truly infuriated the female physician.

Or perhaps, Eunuch Su had managed to offend not just the female physician, but even Suyang himself!

"Drag him out and send him to labor in the Cold Palace, never to step out again!" he immediately ordered someone to drag Eunuch Su away.

Poor Eunuch Su was being sent to toil in the Cold Palace, and he didn’t even know precisely why he ended up in such a state. Was it just because he had looked at Lin Caisang a few times more?

But what of it?

"Summon someone."

After clearing the Imperial Study, the emperor then called someone in from outside.

"Your servant is here."

A young eunuch hurried into the Imperial Study from outside.

He was one of the several young eunuchs brought out by Eunuch Su. Of course, it wasn’t his turn to be on duty today; he had just swapped shifts to be on duty. Hearing the emperor’s voice, he ran faster than ever.

"Gui, go to the National Teacher’s residence and find out when the National Teacher can bring the person into the palace," the emperor instructed.

"To report to Your Majesty, your servant has already dispatched someone to inquire, and there should be news coming soon," Gui said promptly.

Fortunately, he was quick-witted, having immediately ordered someone to inquire at the National Teacher’s residence upon seeing Eunuch Su being dragged in by two guards.

"Hmm, well done."

The emperor nodded in satisfaction.

"From now on, you shall take your master’s place and serve by Our side."

"Your servant thanks Your Majesty for your grace."

Gui immediately knelt down before the emperor and kowtowed thrice.

With the emperor’s words, "little" in his name could now be removed. From now on, he would be Eunuch Gui, the emperor’s most capable eunuch, without equal.
