Seeing the butler’s difficult appearance, Su Shi shook his head helplessly, got up and walked out.

Pushing open the door of Chen Residence.

Only to see Eunuch Wei, dressed in a flaming python robe, waiting outside the door.

“Sir Duke.”

Eunuch Wei greeted him with quick steps and said with a smile, “You are finally willing to come out, I think I really have to wait until the sea dries up and the rocks rot.”

Su Shi said, “Let’s get straight to the point, I still have to go back to continue fortune telling.”

Fortune telling?

Duke Su knew how to tell fortunes?

When he thought of his time at the Prince’s residence, Su Shi had been able to tell everything and had seen through the illusions under the Xianqing Pond.

Eunuch Wei secretly nodded his head.

It should make sense that the Sir Duke was an expert in fortune telling.

“Is Sir Duke willing to tell my fortune too?”

Eunuch Wei said, “I am really curious about my future fortune.”

“It’s fine if you want to try, but ……”

Su Shi rubbed two fingers together, “As the saying goes, heavenly information cannot be revealed, prying into heavenly information will lead to heavenly punishment, besides it will also consume spiritual power, I have to buy some tonics to make up for it, right?”

“I can prepare it.”

Kasim Wei took out a clear spiritual jade and pushed it into Su Shi’s hand, “I am not looking for luck, nor am I asking about career path, I just want to see what my fate will be in the future?”

Head of Internal Affairs was already the highest official position that an eunuch could achieve.

Of course, Wei Jinzhong had the trust of Her Majesty.

But accompanying the king was like accompanying a tiger.

In today’s year, even Prince Chu, who was very powerful in the palace, had fallen.

Although this was Prince Chu’s fault, but thinking of Her Majesty’s cruel methods, his heart felt a little uneasy.

“Fate?”

Su Shi put the jade away, observed it carefully, and said seriously, “Eunuch Wei’s mystic qi is light, with a hidden brightness, like the firmness of the moon, like the rising of the sun, which means a smooth destiny, this is a sign of heavenly protection that you will live a long life.”

(TLN: Actually Su Shi said a hundred years here, many ages is often used as an expression to say longevity.)

Eunuch Wei’s aura was indeed good.

But the difference between their realms was too great, so Su Shi couldn’t see it in too much detail, but was right to say it in a kind way.

At first, Eunuch Wei was quite happy, his mouth grinning to the root of his ears.

But when he heard the end, his expression immediately stiffened.

After a long silence, Eunuch Wei said bitterly, “I’m already 99 years old this year, instead of a long life… don’t I only have 1 year to live?”

“Cough!”

Su Shi almost choked on his saliva and hurriedly changed his mouth, “Mistake, that’s a mistake, Eunuch Wei has at least a thousand years of lifespan!”

Only then did Eunuch Wei’s face look a little better.

Su Shi wiped his sweat.

He almost forgot that this was the world of immortals, and that for immortal power, a hundred years was just a snap of the fingers.

Isn’t living a long life a curse?

Su Shi changed the subject, “What does Eunuch Wei want from me?”

Eunuch Wei replied, “Her Majesty asked me to come and fetch you.”

“Fetch me up?”

Su Shi was confused, “Back to the palace?”

But he realized that there was no golden palanquin behind Eunuch Wei.

Eunuch Wei shook his head, “To the imperial prison.”

“Imperial prison?”

Su Shi wondered, “Hasn’t this already been handed over to the Demon Extermination Division? What is my need there?”

Eunuch Wei said, “Her Majesty has decided to try Chu Yin in person, and since you have taken the greatest credit for this matter, Her Majesty would like you to attend.”

Su Shi frowned slightly.

Chu Yin was a member of the royal family, yet he had committed a despicable crime, at such a time, Feng Chaoge should have chosen to avoid suspicion.

In the end, let alone saying anything about the judiciary, she even invited him to execute in person?

Su Shi thought about it and nodded, “Let’s go.”

He also wanted to see what this Chu Yin would say?
