Chapter 945: Revenge
Old Master Su did not want to indulge himself but when he thought about how his wife was clamouring him to do something about their second son while his second son made a fuss about wanting revenge every day.
After listening to his mother who told Second Master Su that it was the Emperor who caused his accident, his son insisted that he wanted to make trouble for the Emperor.
How could Old Master Su be not annoyed? Was the Emperor some small child in the alley? That he could steal his candy and make trouble with him?
His second son was already like this but he did not stop making trouble every day. It took a toll on Old Master Su's body and mind and he only knew one thing and that was to let himself go a little.
So when he arrived at the inn which was booked by Old Master He, Old Master Su ran into Eunuch Xi who had just arrived with the rest of his aides. As soon as he ran into Eunuch Xi he sneered and then remarked, " You are looking more and more beautiful with each passing day, Eunuch Xi. A little bit more and you will surpass the most beautiful woman of the Imperial city."
Old Master Su clearly said those words to downgrade Eunuch Xi but in light of the current rumours. Even the Emperor who was following Eunuch Xi in disguise was stumped. Oh my god, were the rumours true? Was his minister really interested in Eunuch Xi? If so then what was going to happen to his court?
Emperor Fei was simply stunned in disbelief.
And so were the rest of the officials, they looked at Old Master Su and then turned to gaze at Eunuch Xi who pursed his lips with an angry flush on his cheeks. While the rest of the officials knew that it was because Eunuch Xi was angry, Old Master Su tittered happily.
In fact, Old Master Su also knew that he had angered Eunuch Xi but the officials all thought that the reason Old Master Su was smiling so brightly was because he thought that he had made Eunuch Xi blush.
" Come, Come," when Old Master He saw that the matter was escalating, he immediately invited Old Master Su and Eunuch Xi inside the private room. He looked at the two of them and then motioned to his friends and colleagues who separated the two of them.
This was to make sure that not only Old Master Su would be able to make a move on Eunuch Xi if he had any intention to but also to make sure that the two of them would stay away from one another.
On the other hand, Chi Jia who was sitting on the second floor clicked his tongue. He could not believe that so many people were trying to interfere with their well-thought plan, if the two men did not sit next to one another how would they engage in the disastrous activities?
However, no matter what Chi Jia thought no one paid attention to his intentions. They were all waiting for the drinks to be served while talking with one another, as the server brought the cup of wine one of the cups held a transparent powder inside of it.
It was so clear that even if someone were to press their fingers inside it and take a look at it, they would not see it.
With the server serving wine in the clean porcelain cups, Old Master Su did not see anything and even nodded as he praised how clean the wine house was, when Chi Jia heard his remarks he tittered. He would love to see how Old Master Su would back out of this matter once he was done dealing with him.
They were in a mood to drink and reminisce thus all of them continued to drink one cup after another. By the time they were done drinking most of the officials felt a bit stuffy inside the private room. They all looked at one another in a daze before saying, "Let's go… let's take a walk around the garden. It will clear our heads up."
None of them wanted to go back to their home with an unsteady gaze lest their wives complained to them.
Even Emperor Fei decided to take a look around the inn when he saw that Old Master Su was sitting silently in his seat and was not moving, he knew it. Eunuch Xi was thinking too much. How could Old Master Su do anything unsettling like that to an Eunuch?
The only ones who were left after the Emperor left were Old Master Su and Eunuch Xi, and because the Emperor did not want to make Eunuch Xi feel uncomfortable, he left the doors of the private room open.
Chi Jia who was on the second floor curled his lips when he saw what was going on on the first floor. This inn was only this big and there was a private dining area along with the public dining area at the centre of the inn.
If someone did not close the doors of their private area they could easily see what was going on inside.
Chi Jia snickered lightly, he did not think that Eunuch Xi would act so well that even the Emperor would be considerate of him.
On the other hand, Old Master Su's body was getting more and more uncomfortable. He did not know whether it was too much drink or something else but his body was getting unbearably hot. He wanted to leave but his limbs had gone soft long ago.
He knew that something was going on with him but with his consciousness fading and his eyes turning dazed he was in no condition to understand anything.
At this moment he only wanted to do one thing.
Eunuch Xi who heard the man's breathing go hectic clenched the cup in his hands tightly. The show was about to begin and he needed to be prepared!
