I Have Awakened The Deduction System

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and it was drizzling.

Eunuch Cui's called He Chuan to his bed.

"Little Chuan, I've come to the end of my journey. I'll leave this library to you to manage in the future. Remember the two rules. You're not allowed to read books in the inner room, and you're not allowed to go to the back mountain either. That's the forbidden area of the Imperial Palace. Only by following the rules can you live a long life."

Eunuch Cui's breathing became weaker and weaker.

After giving these instructions, it was as if all the strength in his body had been drained.

He Chuan knew that his time was coming.

After spending so much time with Eunuch Cui, although they didn't usually see each other, at least there was someone to talk to.

After he leaves, he will be the only one left in the huge library. It was really a bit deserted.

"Don't worry, Eunuch Cui. I'll remember your words." He Chuan patted Eunuch Cui's withered palm on his shoulder.

"Cough, cough... There are dozens of taels of silver under the tenth tile under my bed. It's all my savings. Help me find the steward of the Internal Affairs Department and ask them to help me find a beautiful place to bury me."

Eunuch Cui had spent his whole life in the Imperial Palace. He had no one to rely on and no power. His biggest wish was to find an excellent place to bury him after he died.

"I will fulfill your wish." He Chuan nodded solemnly.

After hearing this, Eunuch Cui closed his eyes in relief, and his palms drooped weakly.

He Chuan followed the instructions, took a cloth bag from the stone bricks under the bed, and poured it on the table.

It was all broken silver.

It was probably saved from the gaps between his teeth. He had only saved so little money in most of his life.

However, it was already not easy for a eunuch without power or influence to save so much money.

He Chuan informed the Department of Internal Affairs, was in charge of funeral arrangements.

The old eunuchs who had a slight relationship with him would leave the Imperial Palace on their deathbeds and find family members who could get close to their relatives to arrange funeral arrangements.

The money brought out of the palace would naturally be inherited by the relatives.

He Chuan gave all the money to the person in charge of the steward.

He didn't leave a single cent.

He just wanted them to bury Eunuch Cui better.

"Don't worry, little Eunuch He. We'll do as much as we take." The person in charge weighed the money bag and said with great satisfaction.

At the same time, he looked at He Chuan in a different light.

After all, a person dying was like a lamp going out.

Even if He Chuan took all the money, no one would know.

And Eunuch Cui's body would be thrown into the mass grave, not even leaving a complete corpse behind.

Having been used to indifference and selfishness, the person in charge admired He Chuan. At least, he still had a good heart.

The few people who handled the funeral took away Eunuch Cui's body.

Looking at the huge place, the library seemed to be particularly deserted.

Now only He Chuan was left, and there was still a eunuch who did not know whether he was alive or dead.

Was there a secret behind the mountain?

For the time being, he did not have the intention to investigate it. The important thing was to cultivate diligently.

He had just entered the Xiantian realm, and there was still a long way to go.

Now that the entire library was under his control, life became even quieter and more relaxed.

"Young Eunuch He, the Fifth Prince is coming to read tomorrow. You must be prepared." The eunuch in charge of delivering the message hurried over and left.

So he was the Fifth Prince!

Seeing the eunuch just now, he immediately recalled that he was the eunuch of the Prince who came to the library the most frequently.

After working here for a long time, He Chuan had already studied the routine. He started to prepare according to his previous experience.

The next day.

It was still the same as usual.

The Fifth Prince brought a mighty group of people to the library to read.

After breaking through to the Xiantian realm, He Chuan was already able to see through the cultivation of the eunuchs and palace maids.

They were all in the Houtian realm.

The strongest among them was an old eunuch with white hair, almost at the Houtian ninth realm.

"Hm? Why are you alone?" The Fifth Prince didn't directly enter the inner room to read. Instead, he stopped and asked He Chuan who was standing at the side.

"Replying to Your Highness, Eunuch Cui passed away a few days ago. I'm the only one left," He Chuan replied.

The Fifth Prince only nodded and did not ask further.

The life and death of an ordinary old eunuch did not attract his attention.

After the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, a palace maid walks over. "Follow me in. The Fifth Prince has something to ask."

He Chuan followed the palace maid to the inner room of the library.

"Your Highness, he has arrived!" After the palace maid finished speaking, she respectfully left the inner room.

"I want to read the historical records of the state of Qing, but I've been looking for a long time and still haven't seen it. Can you find it?" The Fifth Prince asked.

"Your Highness, please wait for a moment!" He Chuan had already memorized the book's location after more than a year. As long as you said the book's name, he could immediately find it.

He Chuan swiftly presented the historical records of the state of Qing.

"Not bad, reward him!" The Fifth Prince nodded and said.

The eunuch immediately took out a golden leaf and stuffed it into his hand.

As expected of a member of the royal family. He was generous, and the reward was a golden leaf.

After that, whatever book the Fifth Prince wanted to read, He Chuan was asked to wait on him by the side.

Whatever book he wanted to find, he would directly ask him to help him find it.

After a while, the Fifth Prince became familiar with this young eunuch who was very flexible in doing things.

From time to time, he would also give him some rewards.

However, these rewards were useless to him because He Chuan did not want wealth and glory.

Money was just a worldly possession.

His cultivation also increased as time passed, and he had already reached the sixth stage of Xiantian realm.

However, as his cultivation became higher and higher, the speed of his cultivation also became slower and slower.

"Where is little Eunuch He?" A eunuch held a white mourning robe in his hand and hurriedly looked for He Chuan's figure.

He Chuan used the divine ghostly steps and instantly appeared in front of the eunuch, "This Eunuch, what happened?"

The eunuch only felt his vision blur, and the other party appeared in front of him.

But he did not have time to think about these things now.

"The Emperor has passed away. Everyone has to wear mourning clothes."

The Emperor had actually died. No wonder the Fifth Prince had not come to the library recently.

It turned out that the old emperor was dying.

The time for a change of dynasty was coming again.

He did not know which Prince would win in the end.

All of this had nothing to do with He Chuan. Anyway, it did not matter who became the Emperor. As long as it did not interfere with his recent cultivation!

After the eunuch left, He Chuan threw the white mourning clothes to the side.

Dress the emperor in mourning clothes?

What a joke.

No one else was in the library, so who would know if he wore it or not?

The entire palace was busy.

He Chuan could vaguely hear the wailing.

He just didn't know how sincere the wailing was.

The saddest one was probably the old emperor's concubines.

In the Imperial Palace, mothers relied on their children. Some concubines with no children had to be buried with the emperor to continue serving him.

This was the worst.

There were also some concubines who weren't powerful enough to be sent to guard the mausoleum.

Many young and beautiful concubines could only stay in the mausoleum for their entire lives until they died.

The best outcome for the concubines was to give birth to a son. They then could follow their son to the fiefdom to rest in peace.

It was different for Empress Dowager, who could live in peace and honor, and no one would dare to touch her.

Therefore, it was not so easy to be a woman of the royal family. It would be very difficult to live if one did not have some skill in the inner courtyard of the deep palace.

He Chuan shook his head and continued to close his eyes to cultivate.
