Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 166 This Little Eunuch is Not Bad (First Update)
Chapter 166: Chapter 166 This Little Eunuch is Not Bad (First Update)
Upon seeing this scene, Lin Yi knew without thinking that the Empress must have arrived.
Otherwise, such a grand display would not be possible.
Just as expected, when he entered the Imperial Study Room, he indeed saw the Empress present.
He saw that the young Emperor was still diligently bending over the jade desk, while the Empress gently massaged his shoulders nearby.
Lin Yi watched this scene with great envy.
This gentle and amiable Empress, when could she massage his shoulders like this, and then have the young Emperor hand him some fruits? Wouldn’t that be a delightful life?
However, before he could speak, his thoughts had already reached the young Emperor’s ears.
Upon hearing this, the young Emperor shot Lin Yi a glance.
This libertine really dares to imagine things. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
Not only does he want the Emperor’s Empress to massage his shoulders, but he also imagines the Emperor serving him like a Palace Maid, feeding him fruits.
He really wondered where this man got such audacity.
The young Emperor, who was reviewing memorials, just glanced at Lin Yi and then spoke:
"Is everything taken care of?"
Hearing the voice of the young Emperor, Lin Yi hurriedly withdrew his thoughts and respectfully bowed to the young Emperor, and also to the Empress beside him.
"This official has seen Your Majesty, and has seen the Empress."
As Lin Yi bowed, the Empress also gently nodded at Lin Yi with a smile.
Her graceful and elegant demeanor revealed the poise of a lady from a distinguished family.
Such a gentle and beautiful person really made Lin Yi want to rush up to take good care of her.
The gentleness of the Empress was unlike other women. Her special aura was truly enchanting to Lin Yi.
And it must be said, among Lin Yi’s group of women, each one had her own distinctive characteristics.
The young Emperor was the most prominent.
She always wore a stern face, which was related to her responsibilities.
After all, with her status here, she couldn’t always be laughing and joking.
This also shaped her proud character.
Then there was Xiao Xiao, who always endured everything and constantly showed a demeanor solely considering others.
Perhaps this was also related to her being a Palace Maid serving others.
She always honored Lin Yi, all the while maintaining the stance of a demure woman.
And this Empress’s speaking tone was simply gentle as water.
Not only did she have the pity-invoking grace of a lady of noble birth, but she also had the dignified and generous demeanor of a Mother of the Country.
Her personality appeared to be the most mature and gentle of them all.
Like now, after hearing the young Emperor’s question to Lin Yi, the Empress immediately stood up and slightly bowed to the young Emperor:
"This concubine will wait in the back."
Clearly, this was because the young Emperor wanted to discuss state affairs with Lin Yi, and as a woman, she should not interfere with politics, so she intentionally displayed such a stance.
At the same time, she prepared to leave the room.
From just this alone, one could see that the Empress was a person who profoundly understood the greater good.
However, just as she had risen to her feet, the young Emperor gestured with his hand:
"There’s no need, Empress. You can stay here. After all, you are the person closest to me, there is nothing that you can’t know."
This speech made Lin Yi couldn’t help but feel a shiver of disgust.
Goodness, if it were a man who said this, he might not feel anything at all, but considering the real identity of the young Emperor...
Thinking of this, Lin Yi, for some reason, pictured a rather bizarre scene in his mind.
Of course, this scene is not to be disclosed to others.
After hearing this, the Empress also obediently stopped, then came back behind the Emperor, and began to massage his shoulders.
Meanwhile, she didn’t forget to wave her hand towards the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs, signaling that they could all leave and wait.
It must be said, the Empress is truly attentive.
Seeing this scene, Lin Yi knew it was his time to speak.
So, he directly addressed the young Emperor, recounting the events of the day.
"Are you saying you are interested in Fourth Imperial Uncle’s shop?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, in my opinion, that shop is most suitable."
Hearing this, the young Emperor nodded without making much of it.
After all, being the Emperor of a nation, a simple mention to the Fourth Imperial Uncle, and the latter would definitely not disrespect him.
"Alright, I will speak to Fourth Imperial Uncle about this tomorrow.
Also, how do you plan to deal with the matter concerning the foreigners?"
It must be said, perhaps because Lin Yi often referred to the foreign envoys as foreigners, the young Emperor also blurted it out.
"I’m already handling this matter. Once the workshop is completely established, I will take them for a tour, and then throw them out to sea."
The young Emperor naturally had great confidence in Lin Yi’s ability to handle affairs, thus he nodded, gave a few more instructions to ensure everything goes smoothly, and then waved to Lin Yi:
"Hehe, it seems there are quite a lot of good things happening recently.
Today, the Empress came, which comforts Me greatly.
Little Lin, instruct the Imperial Kitchen to prepare some delicious dishes for dinner.
Also, bring up My fine wines, for I intend to have a few drinks tonight!"
Hearing this, Lin Yi knew it was time for him to retire, so he bowed deeply to the young Emperor and the Empress, and then withdrew.
After Lin Yi left, the young Emperor couldn’t help but burst into hearty laughter.
This scene greatly pleased the Empress.
She knew well that the Emperor must be extremely pleased recently.
Every matter, not just making the Emperor happy, pleased her as well after hearing about it.
Especially the matters mentioned in the letter she received from her father, which clearly showed the Emperor’s recent rise to power.
And she knew that the Emperor’s achievements were inseparably linked to the small eunuch.
That’s why, when she looked at Lin Yi, her gaze was filled with kindness.
And somehow, every time she saw the small eunuch, her heart felt joyful.
If it weren’t for the fact that he was a close and trusted official of the Emperor, she might have even suggested to the Emperor to transfer him closer to her.
During the dinner, as instructed by the young Emperor, the meal was exceptionally lavish.
And Lin Yi took great care to bring over several jars of fine wine.
Looking at the spirited young Emperor, the Empress truly felt happy for him.
Therefore, when the Emperor suggested they have a few drinks together, the Empress did not refuse.
