Siheyuan: tomb robbing? I am serious about hunting.

Chapter 571 Bullying and Insults

Just a few days after arriving in the harem, Chu Tian deeply felt the cruelty here. He was assigned to a position as a small eunuch, responsible for cleaning the palace and serving other eunuchs every day. The one who gave him the most headache was a big eunuch named Li Fu. Li Fu had some status in the harem. On weekdays, he often bullied the new eunuchs because of his seniority. Chu Tian naturally could not escape his clutches. One day, Chu Tian was cleaning the palace seriously, and Li Fu suddenly came over and deliberately kicked over the bucket in his hand, splashing water all over the floor. "How do you do things, little eunuch? You can't even sweep the floor clean, you are really useless!" Li Fu shouted loudly, his face full of disgust. Chu Tian was furious, but he knew that he couldn't be impulsive, so he could only suppress his anger and said humbly: "Eunuch Li, it's my fault, I will clean it up immediately." "Huh, I knew you are useless!" Li Fu cursed and kicked Chu Tian again, and then left with satisfaction. Chu Tian gritted his teeth and silently cleaned up the water and garbage on the ground, swearing in his heart: "Li Fu, you wait for me, one day I will make you pay for what you did today!" In the bullying and insults again and again, Chu Tian gradually realized that in this harem, without power, you can only be bullied. And in order to gain power, you must curry favor with the emperor. Only with the emperor's protection can he get rid of the fate of being bullied. So, a bold plan quietly formed in his mind-creating various opportunities to meet the emperor. Chu Tian began to pay attention to the whereabouts of the emperor. He took the opportunity of cleaning the palace to ask around about the emperor's daily activities. After a period of observation, he learned that the emperor would take a walk in the imperial garden every day, and only with a few personal eunuchs. This gave him a glimmer of hope. In order to attract the emperor's attention in the imperial garden, Chu Tian began to make careful preparations. He used the knowledge he learned in modern times to make some gadgets. For example, he made a simple kite with bamboo and silk thread, and painted exquisite patterns on the kite; he also made a small and exquisite rockery model with some pebbles and colored clay. He secretly hid these gadgets in the corner of the imperial garden, waiting for the right time. Finally, the opportunity came. One day, the emperor was walking in the imperial garden as usual. Chu Tian saw the emperor coming from a distance, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. Then, he pretended to be busy in the imperial garden and quietly approached the places where the gadgets were hidden. When the emperor walked near the rockery model, Chu Tian deliberately knocked over the broom beside him, and the broom just hit the rockery model, and the model made a crisp sound. The emperor was attracted by the sudden sound and turned his head. "What is this?" The emperor asked curiously. Chu Tian immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, this is a rockery model I made when I was free. I hope your Majesty will forgive me for disturbing you." The emperor picked up the rockery model with interest, looked at it carefully, and showed a hint of surprise on his face: "I didn't expect that a little eunuch like you would have such a clever idea." Chu Tian was secretly happy and said quickly: "Your Majesty, you are too kind. I just think that although the scenery in this imperial garden is beautiful, it lacks some interesting things, so I dared to make this, hoping to add some fun to your Majesty." The emperor nodded slightly and was very satisfied with Chu Tian's answer. He asked Chu Tian some more questions, and Chu Tian answered them fluently and appropriately. This left a deep impression on the emperor. After this encounter, Chu Tian did not rush for success, but continued to wait for the next opportunity. He knew that if he wanted to truly gain the emperor's appreciation, he could not rely on this accidental encounter alone. A few days later, the weather was clear and the breeze was blowing. Chu Tian knew that this was a good time to fly a kite. He came to the Imperial Garden early and hid the kite behind a bush of flowers. When the emperor came to the Imperial Garden again, Chu Tian found the right time, took out the kite and started flying it. The kite flew high in the sky, and the exquisite patterns painted on the kite were particularly eye-catching under the sunlight. The emperor was attracted by the kite in the sky and couldn't help but stop. "What is that?" The emperor pointed at the kite and asked. Chu Tian immediately ran forward and introduced the production method and playing method of the kite to the emperor in detail. After hearing this, the emperor said with great interest: "Let me see it." Chu Tian skillfully controlled the kite, and the kite made various wonderful movements in the air, which attracted the emperor's praise. "Good, good!" The emperor applauded happily, "You little eunuch, you really have some skills." Since then, the emperor has paid more and more attention to Chu Tian. He often summoned Chu Tian in the Imperial Garden and talked to him about some novel things. Chu Tian always seizes the opportunity to show his talent and knowledge. Gradually, the emperor trusted and appreciated him more and more. Li Fu was jealous and afraid when he saw Chu Tian was favored by the emperor. He didn't expect that the little eunuch who allowed him to bully him would have such means. He was afraid that Chu Tian would retaliate against him, so he began to think of ways to deal with Chu Tian. One day, Li Fu secretly hid some prohibited items in Chu Tian's room while Chu Tian was away, and then reported to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was in charge of the harem, saying that Chu Tian intended to rebel. After receiving the report, the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately searched Chu Tian's room and found the prohibited items. "Chu Tian, ​​you are so bold that you dare to hide prohibited items with the intention of rebellion!"

Traveling through the harem: the eunuch's counterattack Chu Tian felt dizzy, as if his head was hit hard by a heavy hammer, and he hissed in pain. When he finally recovered, he found himself in a strange place. The surrounding buildings were antique, with carved beams and painted rafters, but they revealed an indescribable depression. He was full of doubts, and subconsciously looked down. This look almost scared him to death - he was wearing eunuch clothes! "What is going on? How did I become a eunuch?" Chu Tian's mind was in chaos, and he tried hard to recall what happened before. I only remember that I was hunting in the mountains and forests, and suddenly encountered a rare storm. A strange lightning struck him, and then I lost consciousness. Unexpectedly, when I woke up again, I came to this inexplicable place and became a eunuch. "What bad luck am I!" Chu Tian wanted to cry but had no tears. He tried to accept this cruel reality, but he couldn't swallow it in his heart.

How could he, a modern young man, be a eunuch in this ancient harem? But at the moment, he had no choice.
