Charm King Poison Queen Chapter 58

Chapter 58 Shameless Xiao Yin (1)

Zhongshan King has returned from hunting.

He hunted a fierce tiger, a black blind man, two antelopes and a ferret, and the harvest was not insignificant. He gave the tiger skin to his eldest son Xuan Yu, the bear paw to the princess, the tiger bone to his second son Xuan Bin and the three-character Xuan Zhao, the antelope horn to Xuan Yin, and the only remaining living creature, the little ferret, of course. It's Sakura's.

Sakura looked at the fluffy little ferret in her arms, and couldn't put it down.

Princess asked: "Who hunted the most this time?"

King Zhongshan stretched out his hand. The concubine rolled up his sleeves for him, and then twisted a handkerchief from the basin held by the maid to wipe his hands, he said: "Servant Zhongchang."

Sakura's hands trembled.

"It's him again?" The princess frowned slightly.

Sometimes the number of prey is not necessarily proportional to the level of hunting, just like if the emperor has not hunted a tiger, who dares to say that he has hunted it? The Zhongchang waiter hunted more than the emperor, which shows how much the emperor favors him.

In the previous dynasty, Zhongchangshi was just an official with only a false title. After the establishment of the new dynasty, the emperor turned Zhongchangshi into a close minister with real power and replaced it with an eunuch. The current Zhongchang Attendant is from Sikong's family, and he and Sikongliu are uncles and nephews.

Different from the Xuan family which focuses on martial arts, the Sikong family has always had two schools - metaphysics and medical skills. Ordinary children decide on their own study direction at the age of seven, and it will not change throughout their lives. However, the Sikong family has produced two eccentric talents - Sikong Liu and Sikong Shuo, who have mastered both subjects with a high degree of proficiency.

The three treasures of the world——Qingming Sword, Bagua Compass, and Longevity Pill, except Qingming Sword, which belongs to the Xuan family, the other two belong to the Sikong family. When competing for the family heirloom, Sikong Liu got the secret recipe of longevity pill, while Sikong Shuo got the Eight Diagrams Compass.

At that time, before the previous dynasty was overthrown, Sikong Shuo had already found the next true destiny emperor, who was the current emperor, by the deduction of the gossip compass, and supported him to sit on the throne. Without Sikong Shuo's prophecy, it would have been difficult for the emperor to instigate such a justifiable rebellion. No wonder the emperor valued him so much afterwards.

As for why Sikong Shuo became an eunuch? Some people said that he suffered from hidden diseases since he was a child, while others said that he did it to show his determination to follow the emperor.

Who knew?

Anyway, the two most powerful members of the Sikong family, one never married and the other became a eunuch.

Thinking of this, the concubine felt relieved, smiled and told the servant girl: "Go and call the young masters over for dinner."

Four people came one after another.

"Father, mother and concubine." The four greeted each other.

The princess was very happy, and beckoned: "Sit down."

The Xuan family has many sons, only Sakura is a girl, the prince is on the left of the princess, and this little Jiaojiao is on the right. Next to Sakura is Xuanyin. Then go to the prince's side, followed by Xuan Zhao, Xuan Bin, and Xuan Yu.

King Zhongshan never asked his sons about their homework at the dinner table. He said "eat it" and picked up the chopsticks.

Princess put the sweet and sour fish in front of Xuanyin, served another bowl of soup for Xuanyin, and said in a warm voice, "Is the cold gone? Drink more ginseng soup, it will help restore your vitality."

King Zhongshan looked at Xuanyin, raised his thick eyebrows: "It's cold again? Why do you get sick every time I go out?"

Xuanyin's mouth twitched, but he didn't speak.

The third young master Xuan Zhao sneered disdainfully: "If the father is not here, I can't control his wild temper!"

The concubine frowned, and glared at Xuan Zhao: "What are you talking about? Shut your mouth and give me a good meal!" Then she looked at the prince and smiled guiltily, "I was negligent and didn't take good care of Xiao Yin. "
