  Chapter 8 Promotion to third-rate

  The gate of the Leng Palace opened, and Director Gu ran into the Leng Palace with seven or eight young eunuchs.

  They looked nervous, as if something serious happened in the palace.

   "My lord, did something happen in the palace?" Wang Li asked cautiously.

  Director Gu said with a straight face: "Don't ask if you shouldn't. Tonight our family will stay in the cold palace for one night, and the palace gates are closed. A stranger is not allowed in!"

  Director Gu, this person came here to take refuge in the cold palace, right... Li Qing thought to himself.

   This night, chaos arose outside the cold palace, but inside the cold palace, it was as peaceful as ever.

   After daybreak, Director Gu took people away in a hurry, Li Qing and others still didn't know what happened last night.

   Waiting for noon, only then did sporadic news reach the cold palace.

  Last night, something shocking happened in the palace.

  Emperor Taikang returned from his filial piety in the Compassionate Ning Palace, and was about to rearrange the appointment of various officials and take over the power of the court, when suddenly an assassin broke into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

   Emperor Taikang was injured and was once captured.

  Afterwards, the Empress Dowager personally led the eunuchs to support him, and rescued Emperor Taikang before the inner court guards arrived.

  Emperor Taikang was seriously injured and unable to govern, so the Empress Dowager was invited to listen behind the curtain.

   Li Qing was dumbfounded when he heard the news.

  Poor Emperor Taikang.

   Anyone with a discerning eye could see the trickiness of this assassination, but no one dared to say it.

  Concubine Qi fainted immediately when she heard the news, and the day when she would be released from the cold palace was nowhere in sight.

  On the fifth day after Emperor Taikang's assassination, an imperial decree came to Lenggong.

   "The emperor has a decree to pardon the crimes of Concubine Chu and Concubine Lin... and allow them to leave the cold palace to serve the left and right."

  An imperial decree made twenty-five concubines out of the limbo, and these concubines will come to take care of the injured Emperor Taikang.

"I wanted to take advantage of the death of the old witch to avenge Concubine Chu's kick. It seems that I have no chance. Emperor Taikang, who is useless, why are you so cowardly? You can't beat grandma, and you can't beat old mother..." Li Qing shook his head and sighed.

  The concubines who leave the palace are all from the line of the empress dowager, and now they are from the line of the queen mother.

   It is never too late for the **** to take revenge.

   On the afternoon of the second day, Li Qing happily went to the Liyuan to watch the maids dance and rehearse.

  This time, there were a few old nuns twisting their waists, but Li Qing was sick of seeing it.

  On the seventh day after Emperor Taikang was assassinated, Director Gu led a group of eunuchs into the cold palace again.

  The eunuchs brought black iron, and added black iron window bars to Dingyou's wing, and even the walls were integrated with iron bars, making Dingyou's wing like a cage.

Director Gu specially ordered: "In the afternoon, Concubine Li will be sent to the cold palace, let Concubine Li live in the Dingyou room, and other concubines are not allowed to communicate with Concubine Li, you Lenggong eunuchs, take turns to deliver meals to Concubine Li, before you get the news from the above, you must We must ensure that Concubine Li will not starve to death."

afternoon.

  The noble concubine Li was covered in blood and was carried into the cold palace, and stayed in Ding You's iron room.

  At the same time, Shangwujian sent a team of martial arts eunuchs to guard outside the gate of Lenggong.

  Lenggong duty room.

   "What's going on with Concubine Li, what's going on now, I don't understand." Eunuch Zhang Baifa asked.

   "I don't understand either." Zhang Yong shook his head.

   "Concubine Li is a person of the sage. Together with Concubine Qi, she forms the right arm. However, Concubine Li is usually relatively low-key, and she is not in the midst of power struggles. I also don't understand how Concubine Li is treated." Li Qing also said.

  Li Qing knows about Concubine Li.

  When he first traveled through time, he was in charge of a concubine named Concubine Ming. She was convicted of murdering the newborn concubine Li Guifei and was thrown into limbo.

  Ming Concubine was insane, and it was often said that she did not harm the imperial concubine, and that Concubine Li never gave birth to an imperial concubine.

  Concubine Ming has committed suicide for many years, and the specifics cannot be tested.

  Concubine Li and Concubine Qi were Taikang Emperor's favorite concubine together, but it was always Concubine Qi who came out to fight, so for many years, no matter how powerful the Empress Dowager was, she did not put Concubine Li into the cold palace.

   "Take a step and look at it. Gu is in charge so that the noble concubine Li will not starve to death, so we will take care of her. If she commits suicide, it will not be bad for us." Wang Li finally said.

  In the evening, Li Qing was the first to deliver meals to Concubine Li.

   Concubine Li was lying on the bed, with thick iron chains wrapped around her limbs, fixed to the beam of the room.

  She was covered with bloodstains, and she had obviously suffered inhuman crimes.

   Even so, Concubine Li still gives people a sense of fear that strangers should not get close to.

   This is a martial arts master, and the strongest person Li Qing has ever seen!

   "Greetings to your mother."

  Li Qing didn't dare to get too close, scooped up a spoonful of thick porridge, and handed it to Concubine Li's mouth.

  Li Guifei closed her eyes and inhaled the thick porridge.

  As long as the other party is willing to eat, Li Qing heaves a sigh of relief.

  …

  The concubine of the ceremony is five years, and the time has entered the seventeenth year of Taikang.

  Emperor Taikang was still seriously injured and hadn't shown any sign of improvement, but the concubine by his side was always there.

   In recent years, Emperor Taikang's sons and daughters have had many girls.

  The queen mother continued to listen to politics behind the curtain.

  The Dagan Dynasty advocated recuperating and recuperating, governing by doing nothing, the world was stable, and the national power was increasing day by day. Although Emperor Taikang did not manage politics, he was known as a wise emperor in the mouths of the people.

  This is a good time.

   Also known as Taikang Prosperity.

  The common people are the most practical, so they don't care about fighting for power or not, they only look at immediate interests.

   Leng Gong.

  Li Qing nestled in the water tank, steam was rising from the top of his head, and his face was glowing red.

for a long time.

  The water in the tank was evaporated, and Li Qing let out a long breath, feeling indescribably refreshed.

  The body is strong and powerful, and some dark diseases are all eliminated.

  Rou Shui Qiduanjin is really a health-preserving method.

   "After five years, I finally broke through the first discipline with a hundred wisps of internal energy, completed Xiao Zhou Tian, ​​and barely became a third-rate master." Li Qing was delighted.

  Although he is at the bottom of the third rate, he is still better than ordinary people.

   It was also thanks to the Roushui Qiduanjin that Daoist Shengyue was invited into the palace by the Empress Dowager to ask questions. I think her sect has a strong heritage.

  In the entire rivers and lakes, Roushui Qiduanjin is definitely a superior skill.

   Some of the most inferior exercises, it is estimated that others have to practice for more than ten years before they can enter the third class.

  Cultivation breakthrough, it is great joy, and it cannot be concealed.

  First report his cultivation level to the Martial Supervisor. It has been eight years since he first reported to practice martial arts, and he entered the third class in eight years. The Martial Supervisor didn't take him seriously at all.

   Then I went for a walk in the Pear Garden. In the past two years, many new maids have been recruited. They are all cute, but unfortunately they are useless.

  During dinner, all the eunuchs in the cold palace showed envy for Li Qing.

   "Being in the third class for five years, I knew that I would also practice martial arts." Zhang Yong secretly regretted it, but it is a pity that he is now in his thirties, and he can't practice anything.

  Lenggong twelve eunuchs, Wang Li was fifty years old, Zhang Yong was thirty-five, Zhang Bai was thirty-four, and Li Qing was twenty-eight.

  Other people are mostly in their thirties, and they are not young anymore.

  During the past ten years, two eunuchs were transferred from the cold palace because they took good care of their concubines, and they were said to have died.

  The two new eunuchs are only in their teens.

   "Heh, practicing martial arts, what do you use to practice." Wang Li was old-fashioned.

  Practicing martial arts is not just practice, you have to have skills, you have to be taught by a master, and you have to have a lot of money.

  As he got older, Wang Li became more and more ill.

  When the **** reaches the age of 50, he can redeem Xiaodandan and apply for leaving the palace. Of course, if he is in good health or has a relationship, he can also die of old age in the palace.

"Based on my physical condition, after two years, I will apply for leaving the palace. It's better to be Xiao Lizi, who knows martial arts. Even at sixty, my body is still strong, and I can stay in the palace safely." Wang Li said sadly .

  Eunuchs in the palace have to undergo a physical examination every year, and only after passing the pass can they continue to stay in the palace.

  Lenggong eunuchs can't save money, can't manage money every year, and can't pass the medical examination, they will leave the palace.

   "You can arrange for a kid from the family to come in, and while we're still here, he can take care of us." Li Qing said.

  Wang Li shook his head: "No, nephews in future generations should pass on the family line. Over the years, I have sent a lot of money back to the clan. The situation in the clan is much better than in previous years."

  Zhang Bai also said: "If there is a choice, who would like to enter the palace as a eunuch? If there is a next life, I would rather plan food in the fields than be a **** without a seed for the rest of my life."
