Chapter 17 I think this male concubine has some potential.
I didn't expect anything!
[I can't believe it's true!]
What a piece of nonsense literature.
The Sixth Princess is known for her fierce and ruthless nature.
The old emperor: How could that be? His son Da Shun is the most mild-mannered. If he were in the countryside, he would be an easy target for bullying.
Her private life was also very open-minded, resulting in her adopted daughter, the Eighth Princess, bearing a striking resemblance to her.
The old emperor said: "The two sisters seem to be doing well, which means they have a good relationship."
So they use the same things everywhere because they both like them.
The old emperor stroked his beard with satisfaction, perhaps there was some hidden reason behind the foolish thing the Eighth Princess had just done.
This liking also includes men.
The old emperor plucked out one of his own beard hairs.
Normally, this kind of situation would turn the sisters into bitter enemies, but these two sisters have such a good relationship that they understand the importance of sharing good things, which naturally includes meeting a man with exceptionally good health.
The old emperor fiercely plucked out two of his own beard hairs.
Shen Zhiyi looked at the two princesses present with admiration.
The Eighth Princess hasn't found a husband yet, but the Sixth Princess has, and the man is quite good, so the two sisters often spend time together.
The old emperor fiercely plucked out a tuft of his beard.
Ridiculous, really ridiculous.
[This is strange. The two sisters have such a good relationship, so why would the sixth prince secretly expose the eighth princess?]
Shen Zhiyi patted her head in regret.
[Look at me, I'm already the sixth child, how can I not be a little sneaky, hahaha.]
[Ahem, I digress. This sixth princess is quite something; she and the eighth princess both took a fancy to the same male favorite, who happens to be the one kneeling there right now.]
[They're strong and resourceful; both sisters gave it a five-star review.]
Old Emperor: Good review my foot, he's going to give it a huge bad review.
As Shen Zhiyi continued watching, she finally understood why these sisters, who were originally so close they could share a pair of underwear, had become enemies on this day.
Those around Shen Zhiyi who could hear her thoughts were also very curious.
[Hahaha, these two girls really like these male concubines so much, so they've decided that Princesses One, Two, and Three will go to Princess Six, and Princesses Four, Five, and Six will go to Princess Eight, and they'll all be together on the seventh day.]
On the seventh day, the Eighth Princess disappeared with her male favorite. The Sixth Princess, who had been searching all day, grew increasingly angry and, in her rage, grabbed a butcher's knife and searched the entire capital.
After searching all day without finding the Eighth Princess, the Sixth Princess, unable to bear it any longer, went to the old emperor, hoping to find out the Eighth Princess's whereabouts immediately through him.
The old emperor, who had been thoroughly taken advantage of by his own daughter, really didn't want to accept this reason. It was too pathetic. She was doing this for a male concubine who was not worthy of being mentioned in public. She would have been better off as the emperor's son-in-law.
"We agreed on three days each, and we'd be together on the last day. Why did you run off with him?"
The Eighth Princess, her hand trembling, boldly pointed at her Sixth Sister: "You're being unreasonable! What do you mean I ran away with him? You're making baseless accusations!"
"Well, you still don't dare to admit it, Eighth Brother!"
"What's this talk about admitting or denying? I didn't do it, and that's it."
"If you have it, you have it!"
The old emperor propped his head up and said irritably, "Alright, all of you shut up."
So embarrassing.
The two princesses finally quieted down.
[My goodness, they really don't hide anything! But these palace maids and eunuchs wouldn't dare say a word. But don't worry, the old emperor saw it all with his own eyes, and I will record it all in the daily records.]
The old emperor closed his eyes, facing death with equanimity.
[However, the Sixth Princess truly misunderstood the Eighth Princess. This male concubine had taken on a last-minute job during the day and made up an excuse that his eighty-year-old mother had suddenly fallen ill and he needed to go see her. Because he was in a hurry to leave, he only told the Eighth Princess and not the Sixth Princess. Thus, the misunderstanding was born.]
What a load of rubbish.
The old emperor waved to those behind him in an annoyed manner.
A man dressed in some kind of black clothing bowed slightly, and the old emperor gave him some instructions before the man disappeared.
People shouldn't have that damned curiosity.
But I really couldn't help it.
[System, increase the volume.]
The old emperor's eyes widened. "No, you can use this divine artifact like this?"
[Oh, so you went to investigate the background of this male concubine? Hehe, I already read that out. He's just a male concubine of the Prime Minister, nothing special. The only slightly special thing is that besides serving the two princesses, he also has to serve the Second Prince, Prince Duan.]
The old emperor's breath hitched, and his eyes rolled back as he nearly fainted.
[Prince Duan is fond of men. Yesterday, he took a fancy to this male concubine. The concubine offered him too much, so today the concubine found an excuse to go and serve Prince Duan.]
[As expected of royalty, they are truly extraordinary.]
Shen Zhiyi couldn't help but admire him, and then she carefully examined the male concubine. He was indeed handsome, and she even wanted to kiss him.
No wonder the old emperor's children all took a liking to him.
Seeing the old emperor was about to go crazy with anger, the Dragon Scale Guard immediately and sensibly handed over the information about the male concubine that Shen Zhiyi had just revealed to the old emperor.
The old emperor glanced at him a few times, then accused his male favorite of a crime and dragged him directly into prison.
Now, both princesses were dumbfounded.
"Father, what are you doing?"
"Yes, Father, what are you doing?"
"What are you doing?" The old emperor was both angry and amused. "I'm not doing anything. I'm just acting in accordance with the laws of Da Ye."
Both princesses were quite domineering.
The sixth princess rolled up her sleeves, stood up, and said, "Father, what law of Da Ye has this male concubine violated?"
[They were all male concubines, and of course, he hadn't done anything wrong; they were licensed to do so. But who told him to provoke the old emperor's three children? Anyone in his position wouldn't have spared his life.]
However, not keeping the child might damage the relationship between the child and parents, but keeping the child will always be a potential problem.
[If you ask me, we should just throw this male concubine into the military camp for a good training session. I guarantee he won't be selling hooks after he comes out.]
[A place with such abundant yang energy will make you incredibly masculine after you leave.]
The old emperor's eyes lit up. If it weren't for the fact that Shen Zhiyi didn't know everyone could hear her thoughts, he would have loved to praise her on the spot.
Wonderful, wonderful indeed!
"Alright then, I won't imprison him."
The male concubine breathed a sigh of relief; he was saved, his life was saved!
"I think this lad has some potential. I'll send him to the barracks to train him properly. Given time, he'll definitely achieve something great."
The male concubine's world has collapsed.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I... I'm just a male prostitute, and I'm of lowly status."
"Your lowly status? It doesn't matter. From this day forward, you are a respectable man, and my word is law."
The male concubine was about to faint.
With his delicate skin and tender flesh, he's definitely not cut out for the military!
It's better to go to jail; at least you won't have to move.
