Chapter 414: Son

Chapter 414: Son

Li Huowang sat in the corner of the room and stared quietly at the citizens of Qi Kingdom talking about something. He overheard them talking about whether they would recruit a group of eunuchs in the palace or not.

Some of them thought that eunuchs couldn't be trusted, but others thought that eunuchs were still useful and that they had to recruit more eunuchs.

Li Huowang stopped listening to their discussion and turned to Zhuge Yuan next to him.

Zhuge Yuan was drinking tea as if he wasn't involved. He didn't express his opinion as well. Considering his status, he could have made a decision for everyone, but he didn't do that.

Li Huowang sat down next to him and asked. Arent you going to stop them? Theyve been talking about it for so long. We need a leader to stop them.

No worries. Qin Lao is here, and they'll eventually come to a decision. I think they'll come to a decision by tomorrow. The little emperor is not the key issue here, but the empress.

I hope they do move out tomorrow. Anyway, I'm going to the toilet, Li Huowang said. He stood up and walked outside. Rather than going to the toilet, however, Li Huowang left the residence through the courtyard. for new novels

A slightly faded humanoid window sticker talked to him once he was outside.

Why are you still acting? The people outside are waiting for you anxiously, including Lord Jian Zheng.

Li Huowang frowned at the sticker. I dont even know where he's hiding his almanac. Why are you in such a rush? I'll end up alerting him if I move haphazardly. Do you not have any idea just how strong he is?

Pick up the pace. We're at a critical juncture, and you can't take the easy path here.

Relax. I know the best time to act, and it's when the Sitting Oblivion Dao members are fighting against him. He's definitely going to use the almanac against the Sitting Oblivion Dao.

Are you sure that the Sitting Oblivion Dao will start moving soon?

Of course. Zhuge Yuan had fought them many times before. At this point, its either he dies or the Sitting Oblivion Dao dies. Theyve ambushed him twice and are definitely going to do it again.

"Anyway, I have to go back now, or Zhuge Yuan will get suspicious of me.

Li Huowang turned around and ran away without waiting for the humanoid sticker's response.

The eunuch didn't walk into the residence. He stopped in the courtyard and started shouting, Everyone, stop your useless work! We are not going to help you. We are returning the favor from before by acting like you do not exist at all.

Qin Lao was reluctant to let go of one of the few remaining help they could possibly obtain. But Lord Zhuge is with us! Will you not reconsider? We'll share the glory once we succeed!

The eunuch looked at Zhuge Yuan and bowed respectfully before chuckling at Old Qin. Lord Qin, what do you think is most important to us, who are working in the palace?

Everyone was stunned.

One of the ladies spoke hesitantly. Gold?

Wrong! Its a son[1]! You cant help us, but the monks can!

The eunuch took off his robes, revealing his enlarged belly covered in veins. The eunuch excitedly showed off his belly. Who said that we cant have children after getting castrated? Do you not see this? This is my own son!

The eunuch used his hand wrapped in prayer beads to caress his belly. Soon, an imprint appeared on the eunuch's belly as if what was inside had reacted to the eunuch's touch. The imprint resembled a hand!

Li Huowang felt a shiver down his spine. What the hell is happening to the Qi Kingdom? What did the monks from the Righteous Monastery do to impregnate the eunuchs? Wait, is his "son" even alive inside him?

The Righteous Monastery of the Qi Kingdom was clearly stronger and more influential than the Righteous Monastery of the Liang Kingdom.

Old Qins hands trembled violently at the sight. The monks from the Righteous Monastery are evil and have fallen into depravity! You're not going to live long by consorting yourself with them!

Who cares if they're evil? I'll help those who can give us a child, even though we've been castrated! the eunuch retorted. Then, he carefully wrapped his enlarged belly with his robes, hiding it from everyone's line of sight.

1. Eunuchs are castrated once they accept their roles. This is to make them less threatening as servants of the imperial family. Thats why they cant have children.
