After having sex with a fake eunuch, I became the queen

Ji Yin's personal killing of Xu Shixin was not part of his original plan. His original plan was to "borrow" a knife to kill someone, rather than "hold" the knife to kill someone - as long as he did not do it himself, whether Qiao Wan'er succeeded in killing Xu Shixin or not had nothing to do with him, and he would not put himself in danger.

But the final result was that he failed to play the role of a coward and acted beyond his authority.

Because his actions were impulsive and planned hastily, every step he took might be unexpected and he was walking on thin ice...If there were any mistakes, it would not only endanger his own safety, but also destroy the overall plan of the Restoration Army.

Therefore, before closing the case, he sent Lu Yi to pass a message to the secret agent code-named "Ximen" to closely monitor the progress of the case to prevent any accidents.

Fortunately, it was a safe escape - he killed Xu Shixin and escaped successfully, Qiao Wan'er became a scapegoat and kept her mouth shut and didn't give him any information, and the bunch of losers in the Ministry of Punishment didn't realize that the woman had an accomplice, so he was able to get away with it in the end.

As for why he personally went to the battlefield to kill the enemy, from behind the scenes to the front stage, Ji Yin recalled that it was not his own intention, he seemed to be driven by some inexplicable force - yes, Li Shuxiu's silver bracelet was the culprit, the bracelet must be possessed by her wronged soul. Because he put the bracelet in his inner pocket, he was entangled by the wronged soul, and he had to avenge her.

Not only did she send him a dream to remind him that Qiao Wan'er's assassination attempt would fail and she would die in vain, but she also let a living person remind him after he ignored her - creating an opportunity for him to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two eunuchs... It was as if she was reminding him of something, which ultimately led him to take such a risky move.

That day, after Ji Ying finished pruning the branches and returned, he became uneasy again. His state was exactly the same as when he had just woken up from a dream in the morning. All the efforts he made during the day to calm his mind were in vain.

After dinner, the chief eunuch sent him alone to turn the manure in the manure stable as a punishment for his distraction that day, saying that he wanted to let him be smelled by the stench and see if he could wake up.

Ji Ying gladly accepted the order.

He only made a brief stop beside the straw stable, placing some tools there to create the scene that "someone was working here, but somehow temporarily left", and then he used his martial arts skills to escape to the backyard of the inner court office by climbing over the eaves and walls.

He had been familiar with the layout of the Neiting Office and knew where the chief eunuch Xu Shixin lived. When he sneaked into Xu Shixin's residence, the room was empty, so he hid under the bed and prepared to "make trouble in the bridal chamber."

Later, he heard everything that happened between Qiao Wan'er and Xu Shixin from under the bed, and at the critical moment he crawled out from under the bed to save the beauty.

As for how he escaped, it was thanks to Qiao Wan'er. The two eunuchs on guard discovered something was wrong and finally broke into the room. At the same time, Ji Yin hid behind the bed curtain.

Qiao Wan'er didn't know how "Fuzhi" got in, nor did she know how he would get out. She only saw him quickly flash away and disappear in the blink of an eye, as if he was hidden behind the bed curtain. His figure was so fast that she felt it was just an illusory shadow flashing before her eyes... He killed quickly and escaped quickly.

When she saw the eunuch on night watch enter the room, Qiao Wan'er's first reaction was to find a way to attract the visitor's attention and try not to let them notice that there was another person hiding in the room.

So he waved the scissors to keep the two away, and cried and laughed like a madman: "I stabbed that old bastard to death! Wuuuu! I finally got my revenge! Hahaha!"

She was already covered in blood, and her hair was torn apart during the fight, leaving her hair disheveled, looking like a typical female ghost.

The two people who came in were stunned when they saw this scene. It took them a long time to realize what was going on. They first took a lot of effort to control the "female ghost", and then went to check Xu Shixin's body lying in a pool of blood... There was no life left.

Then one of them stayed in the house and watched, while the other ran out and rang the gong to alert the night watch guard.

Ji Ying took advantage of the chaos and quietly climbed out from a back window behind the bed curtains. He also climbed in from this window when he entered the room. The hole in this back window was very small, and ordinary people could not get in. Even a petite woman like Qiao Wan'er could hardly squeeze in. But Ji Ying was not an ordinary person. He had practiced bone shrinking skills and could shrink his entire body to a size that ordinary people could not reach. Before entering the room, he deliberately cleaned the dust on the soles of his shoes to avoid leaving any traces.

Ji Yu escaped smoothly, and he avoided the guards who came after hearing the alarm and the guards who were on night watch along the way. Because everyone thought that Xu Shixin was blinded by lust and was stabbed to death by a resentful and angry woman, the Yulin Army did not issue a search warrant after arresting Qiao Wan'er.

After Ji Yin fled back to the hay and fertilizer stable of the Horticulture Bureau, he continued to turn the fertilizer with lingering fear.

*
After hearing from Lu Yi that the Ministry of Punishment had closed the case, Ji Wei was finally able to sleep peacefully, but today he woke up unusually early. Although he was not awakened by a nightmare this time, he felt the same uneasiness from head to toe as after the nightmare that day. He tossed and turned in bed for a long time, and probably figured out the reason - today was the day Qiao Wan'er was to be executed. Even if she was not his real lover, she was a loyal person who helped him get rid of his old enemy, and she was a loyal person worthy of the name... She was determined to go into battle and kill the enemy, and she also took the blame for him.

Such a person was going to die heroically today, and his uneasiness was naturally due to his deep regret for her short-lived heroism. But he could do nothing but let her die.

Well, "If I become the Jade Emperor in the future, I will reward her by letting the peach blossoms bloom together." [Note 1] If I am lucky enough to regain the imperial power in the future, I will confer the title of Lady Loyal and Brave on her!

Early in the morning, Ji Yin took the initiative to go to the manure stable to turn the manure, because he hoped that he would be well-suffocated by the stench today, not to be awakened, but to be confused. So that he would not always think about Qiao Wan'er being beheaded today - although he tried hard to ignore it, he would always think about it from time to time in his mind.

Ji Yin turned over and dried all the grass fertilizer that he had turned over last time, and then piled it into a dozen grass baskets. After finishing these tasks, he estimated that it should be nearly three quarters past noon, which was the time when the woman would be executed... He once again couldn't help but think of Qiao Wan'er.

At this time every day, he was starving and couldn't wait to have lunch, but today he was not hungry at all, probably because the fertilizer had lost his appetite.

Therefore, he did not rush to leave here to "find food", but stood there like a wooden stake... He hoped that "three quarters after noon" would pass quickly.

However, that brief moment actually felt long to him, giving him the illusion that time seemed to have stopped at that moment and could not go on.

Finally, he estimated that the long and short moment should have passed, so he walked out of the manure stable, changed his work clothes at the door, washed his hands, and prepared to go back to his residence to eat some naan. When he was about to leave, he suddenly heard the sound of someone pushing a wooden cart. He turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound. Not far away, a person was pushing a wooden sedan chair. The person pushing the cart was none other than Lu Yi - he probably knew that he was turning the manure here, so he took the task of carrying the manure and came here specially.

"Lord! Lord!" After seeing Ji Yin, Lu Yi seemed a little excited. He threw the cart in his hand aside and walked over quickly. His voice was as rapid as his footsteps.

"Lu Yi, I've told you so many times, from now on, whether in front of others or in private, don't call me lord anymore. Just call me Fuzhi or Brother Fuzhi, otherwise someone might accidentally hear it, which would be disadvantageous to both you and me!" Seeing Lu Yi's anxious look, Ji Yin roughly guessed what he wanted to say - nothing more than that the heroine in his mind had been executed and how regrettable it was.

Ji Wei really didn't want to hear him say this.

So when he heard that Lu Yi did not call him according to the previous instructions, he scolded him in a bad mood.

Lu Yi stopped in front of Ji Wei, put on an apologetic face, and gasped for a while. While gasping, he stretched out a hand and gently wiped his face twice with his sleeve.

Ji Yin thought he was wiping sweat, but when he looked carefully, he found that he was wiping the tears from his eyes... Could it be that he was so sad that he cried because the woman was executed?
Ji Wei looked incredulous: "Lu Yi, you... why are you doing this?"

"Master... Oh... Brother Fuzhi, Qiao... Qiao Wan'er she... is Qiao Wan'er..." Lu Yi seemed to have not caught his breath yet. His words were intermittent and he choked before he finished speaking. Then he reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes.

It turned out to be because of Qiao Wan'er!

"Well, you don't have to come and remind me. I know that the woman should have been executed. Also, are you so sad? Is she your sister, or someone else to you? I..." Ji Yin almost blurted out "My partner is fine" but he stopped because he felt it was a bit inappropriate. After all, his "partner" was a fake.
He didn't expect that Lu Yi, a grown man, would cry for a woman. Although it felt a little abrupt, his mood also became bad. When he was in a bad mood, he wanted to say something blaming others.

"My lord, I... I'm not sad, I'm just a little emotional... I'm a bit sentimental like a woman, maybe because I've been a eunuch for a long time. No matter I'm happy or sad, I'll shed a few tears when I'm excited!" While Lu Yi was speaking, a few tears rolled down his eyes uncontrollably.

"Well, being sad is being sad, it's not shameful, and no one is laughing at you. Besides, didn't I tell you that I have already found a way to bribe the jailer and the executioner? She should be treated well in prison, and will die happily, so just rest assured!" Ji Yin looked at Lu Yi's useless look and decided to say a few words of comfort, so he changed his tone and spoke.

"I'm really not sad, I'm really not. I'm just too happy! My Lord... Oh... It's Brother Fuzhi. I came here specially to tell you that Qiao Wan'er... She doesn't have to die!"
