CHAPTER 1268: CHAPTER 1268: ANUAN’S PLAN, FOLLOW MY ORDERS

"No way!"

Huo Yuning realized what was happening and stepped forward to stop the person who was about to leave the hall.

She pulled out the Golden Whip from her waist, flicked it to hook around the Little Eunuch’s waist, and forcefully yanked him back into the grand hall.

"Bang!"

The Little Eunuch was dragged back by the Golden Whip, his body harshly slammed onto the ground, his face going even paler from the pain.

Su Jingshu saw this and felt heartache, her eyes widened and she roared, "Huo Yuning!"

Huo Yuning casually cleaned her ears and smiled, "My ears aren’t deaf, keep it down."

Su Jingshu suppressed the urge to step forward and help the Little Eunuch. The more she cared about the Little Eunuch, the more Huo Yuning would relentlessly cling on.

She gritted her teeth and asked sternly, "What exactly do you want?"

She was unclear about this girl’s intentions, all she could do was take things one step at a time.

Huo Yuning walked to the Little Eunuch, her tone gentle, "What’s your name?"

The Little Eunuch struggled up from the ground, enduring the pain, and timidly answered, "This servant, I am called, called Achan."

Su Jingshu heard his humble tone and felt a strong sense of unease.

She was both a bit resentful of Qin Ruan’s arrangements and thought that the dejected Nangong Chang now, resembled her own self from decades ago, secretly feeling a bit of guilty pleasure.

Of course, she still felt a little bit sorry for him, but it was negligible.

Huo Yuning walked around the kneeling Little Eunuch, those eyes that could see through everything in the world sensed the ancient Dragon Clan aura on him.

She asked indifferently, "Which character?"

The Little Eunuch knelt on the ground and kowtowed, his expression numb, "The ’chan’ from ’prostitute’, this servant was sired by a prostitute, a lowly person."

Whatever happened today, he was destined not to leave alive.

Thus, he would just honestly answer whatever the master asked, hoping for a quick release.

"!" Su Jingshu’s breath halted for a moment, her mood inexplicably agitated.

This was not just being humble, it was like stomping someone deep into the mire.

Deprived of proof of manhood, born of a prostitute, named with the same word upon entering the palace, his situation was tragically pitiful.

Su Jingshu took a deep breath, released the pent-up feelings from her heart, stepped forward, and said to the kneeling Little Eunuch, "From now on, you’ll be called Achang. It stands for lasting brightness and smoothness, wishing you well in everything within this deep palace."

Huo Yuning hadn’t expected Nangong Chang’s situation to be so dire; thus, she did not stop Su Jingshu.

After all, he belonged to the other party and she had no intention to disrupt a pair.

Achang’s eyes widened slightly, his face filled with surprise and unease.

Being of noble rank, Su Jingshu’s conferment of a name was binding; he could only kowtow in gratitude.

"This servant thanks Lady Su for bestowing a name."

Su Jingshu, feeling irritable, managed to help him up quickly, speaking fast, "Alright, stand up, go outside and wait for me."

Achang knelt on the ground, cautiously looking up at the Empress.

Huo Yuning waved her hand to him, devoid of her earlier playful mood, "Go ahead, from now on you belong to Zhongchui Palace."

"This servant takes leave."

Achang crawled backwards several steps before standing up and bowing as he left.

Su Jingshu’s face showed slight irritation, her eyes narrowing towards Huo Yuning, "Speak, what do you really want?"

This time, the Little Princess answered, "He is a Divine Beast of the ancient Dragon Clan, I want him to obey my commands once he recovers."

Su Jingshu stared suspiciously at Huo Yuning, "Is that all?"

She had thought this girl was up to some mischief.

Huo Yuning smiled and nodded, her expression innocently harmless.

Su Jingshu, as if fearing Huo Yuning would change her mind, quickly agreed.
