I married an exasperating eunuch Chapter 35

Chapter 35 Make all

Chen Hui dissed in her heart, but her face turned pale from fright. She said panic-stricken, “Lord, what are you saying? This Lady Chen didn’t paint erotic pictures!”

Li Youde held one of the paper in his hand, pinched it with two fingers and hung it in front of Chen Hui’s eyes. He snorted coldly, “Look at what you have painted. Just these two pieces of clothes to cover up, you are still saying that it is not an erotic picture?”

The reason Chen Hui didn’t want to let Li Youde see her bikini sketches no matter what was because she felt that she wouldn’t be able to explain. The reality was also like that. There were hundreds of years between him and her; how could he understand? For example, the one in his hand, whether it was the style of underwear or the movements of the body, it belonged to the more conservative ones that she had drawn, but he felt that it overstepped the bounds of what was proper.

Chen Hui said bitterly, “Lord, these were originally not meant to show people…It is a design for the tailors.”

Li Youde raised an eyebrow and glanced at the design in his hand a few more times with a strange look, “You want to make this and wear it?”

From the beginning, Chen Hui didn’t want the topic to reach this point and resisted fiercely, but she still couldn’t escape in the end.

“…Making them for fun.” Chen Hui didn’t admit nor deny.

Li Youde’s gaze fell from the design to Chen Hui’s chest. The front piece of the clothes that had been pulled open by him was still open, revealing the pink undergarment below. Did she mean to change the undergarment to the style in his hand?

He had long not been an ordinary man, but he could also imagine how tempting it would be to see a woman dressed like this and appear in front of an ordinary man.

He narrowed his eyes and he suddenly reached out to help Chen Hui pull her clothes back. Then, he stepped out of the bed. He wanted to laugh at her innocence when he saw her get up in panic and avoided his hand a bit. If he really wanted to do something, could she still escape?

“Let them make them all according to your designs,” Li Youde said.

Chen Hui was startled and looked at him with a hesitant face. What did he want to do? Could it be to upgrade the habit of touching the breast to collecting underwear?

Looking at Chen Hui’s expression, Li Youde knew that she was thinking of nothing good. It was also only her who would dare to show that she was cursing him in her heart and let him see it!

Lu Youde’s face darkened, “Lady Chen, you don’t want to?”

Chen Hui replied fluently, “Of course this Lady Chen is willing. As long as it is lord’s command, this Lady Chen will do it!”

Li Youde nodded with satisfaction, “Make them within three days!”

Chen Hui said, “Lord, there is another question…”

Li Youde was in a good mood at the moment and motioned her to continue.

Chen Hui looked at his face and said cautiously, “Lord, this is not the same as an undergarment. There…are sizes. Don’t know if they are for your own collection or…”

Li Youde almost rolled his eyes, glared at Chen Hui and said, “What am I collecting them for?!”

Who knows…?

Chen Hui lowered her head, didn’t speak and silently accused him of being a pervert.

Li Youde felt that his anger was rising again. If it was another, it must be because they were scared that they kept their head down, didn’t dare to speak and were waiting for his forgiveness. What about Lady Chen? Even if she looked obedient, he felt that she must be cursing him in her heart!

He turned his head, raised his hand to signal Xiao Tiao who had been standing tremblingly by the door to get out. Even if Xiao Tiao was worried about Chen Hui, she didn’t dare to disobey. So, she could only close the door.

Chen Hui glanced once at the movement at the door and her alertness rose sharply. Although, many days have passed and the finger marks on her chest have disappeared, but how could the embarrassment and pain be so easy to forget? She felt like facing a great enemy and thought about how she could avoid the pain of having her chest pinched at this time.

Li Youde didn’t know what Chen Hui was thinking about nor did he know that she was thinking of him as a pervert at the moment. He sat on the bed, looked at Chen Hui and said, “Do you know which consorts are the most favored in the palace nowadays?”

Chen Hui looked up in surprise. Then, she shook her head and said, “This Lady Chen doesn’t know.” It would be strange if she knew.

“There are two. One is Consort De who gave birth to the eldest imperial son and the other is Consort Shu who gave birth to the second imperial son,” Li Youde said.

• Consort De/ Consort of Morality and Consort Shu/Consort of Kindness are consorts of the fourth rank. For more information see Ranks of females in the imperial family.

Chen Hui nodded earnestly. How could she understand a country better from reading books than when Li Youde, this Chief Eunuch of the palace, explained it. She moved a stool and sat down as Li Youde looked at her strangely and assumed the posture of listening to a story.

Li Youde retracted his gaze and pretended to not have seen anything. He continued, “The eldest imperial son is six-year-old and good at literature and martial arts. He is proficient in history and the modern times, and is much doted on by the emperor. Hence, the emperor’s love towards Consort De has been deeper recently.”

Chen Hui asked curiously, “How old is the emperor?”

“Presumptuous!” Li Youde gave Chen Hui a fierce look.

Chen Hui shrank back and explained in a low voice, “There are only this Lady Chen and lord here. Others won’t know…Besides, it is just asking about the emperor’s age. This Lady Chen didn’t disrespect the emperor.”

Chen Hui’s words actually showed a very intimate attitude towards Li Youde and regarded him as one of her own. So, she must trust him. Li Youde was indeed pleased by Chen Hui’s attitude and answered her question in a good mood, “The emperor is twenty-three this year.”

Chen Hui blinked and remembered that Li Youde was smashed by a teacup a few days ago. She didn’t expect that the emperor was not very old but his temper was so great. His son is already six-year-old, plus the time of the pregnancy, he already had sex when he was sixteen-year-old. People of this era really matured early.

“Amazing…,” Chen Hui exclaimed in a way that Li Youde wouldn’t be able to understand and asked curiously, “How many consorts does the emperor have? Does he have consorts that filled all the three palace and six courtyards, a total of seventy-two consorts?”

Li Youde stared at her with gloomy eyes, “Why are you so interested in the emperor? Or are you thinking about the emperor’s harem?”

Chen Hui hurriedly waved her hand and said with a sincere expression, “It is enough for this Lady Chen to have lord and this Lady Chen has no interest in that harem. This Lady Chen is only just a tiny bit curious.”

Li Youde stared at her for a while before he said helplessly, “How many consorts the emperor has is not something you should concern yourself with! Don’t change the topic. Let’s continue to talk about Consort De and Consort Shu.”

Chen Hui looked obediently at Li Youde and waited for him to continue.

To her, that Li Youde has the patience to teach her was almost non-existent. Since god bestowed such a miracle, she couldn’t let her curiosity ruin it. She had to hold back even if she wanted to know the name of the emperor.

Li Youde felt that Chen Hui’s obedient appearance was pleasing to the eye and his mood was much more relaxed. He continued, “Consort Shu already followed the emperor when he was the crown prince and had the meritorious service of hard work. Consort De has entered the palace after the emperor had ascended the throne. Both consorts gave birth to the sons of the dragon and their private fights had never ceased.”

Li Youde’s life had also not been easy during this period. Consort De came from a prosperous family and she has a great temper. If there was any dissatisfaction in the process of renovating the palace and if she did a pillow talk with the emperor, he, the Internal Chief Eunuch would naturally meet with misfortune and would be really reduced to a punching bag. Wang Youcai would look at him as a joke. He had been thinking about how to please Consort De these days to make her less angry. So, the pillow was sent.

Thinking till here, the gaze he looked at Chen Hui with softened. He even said with a smile, “Recently, Consort De hasn’t been in a good mood. So, I thought about sending her something. I saw that your designs are not bad.”

After listening to Li Youde talk in circles, Chen Hui finally understood what he meant and also felt relieved. It would be fine as long as he wasn’t a pervert who collected them for himself. After all, he is her long-term meal ticket for the long future. Overall, she hoped that the fewer quirks he has the better. She already couldn’t bear the pinching of the chest. If there was another, she was afraid that she would go crazy. So fortunate, so fortunate.

Chen Hui coughed once and said, “This Lady Chen understands what lord means. It is just…what this Lady Chen had said before. This thing…has different sizes. If the size is not appropriate, it won’t be good to use…”

This kind of pure fabric may be applicable within a certain range, but the discrepancy couldn’t be too big. Should she make more sizes at once? It was rare for Li Youde to have something serious for her to do. It was exactly the time for her to show her value. She couldn’t screw up. If this matter was done beautifully, perhaps, she would become more pleasing to his eyes in the future and she may be even able to not let him pinch her breasts anymore.

Hearing Chen Hui mentions the issue of the size again, Li Youde’s eyes fell on her again. To be precise, it fell on her chest.

He raised an eyebrow and said, “Lady Chen, come here.”

Chen Hui froze in her seat and didn’t want to move.

Li Youde humphed once coldly, “Do you want me to repeat myself?”

Chen Hui let out a slight sigh and walked over as if she was facing her death. She walked to him under his cold and threatening gaze.

Li Youde grabbed Chen Hui’s arm and let her turn sideways. He stared at the curvature of her chest for a while and then let her turn another round. His eyes narrowed and said after a moment, “Just make them according to your size.”

“Yes, lord,” Chen Hui almost cried with joy. Her breasts had been saved this time! To clean up those designs, she took a few steps away from Li Youde and her tightened body relaxed slightly.

More thoughts emerged in Chen Hui’s head while looking at the designs in her hand. Since it would be used to seduce the emperor by the consorts, she might as well get a few more sexy underwear out. Those in her hands were all designed for herself. So, most of them were very conservative.

Li Youde saw Chen Hui’s almost undisguised emotions and smiled mockingly. Thinking about the purpose of his coming, his eyes darkened again and a slightly prolonged voice slowly sounded, “There is another thing…” Seeing Chen Hui’s body stiffen, he smiled happily and continued, “I heard from Xiao Liu that you deliberately provoked Commandery Princess Shuning and want to let her tear down my shop?”

Chen Hui suddenly turned to look at Li Youde. She was so angry that she wanted to hit him but didn’t dare. Forget it, if he just slanders her motives casually…’My shop’? What is his? That was obviously hers. He gifted it to her, then it is hers!

She said solemnly, “Lord, Xiao Liu must be a spy that Lord Wang has sent who specializes in instigating discord!”
