Chapter 212 Slick Ghost Dissipate

+15 Bonus

Lilly’s curiosity increased as more harem spirits advised her not to ask. She asked curiously, “Why can’t I ask?”

The harem spirit said, “Children shouldn’t ask this question.”

Lilly questioned, “Why can’t children ask? Are adults able to ask? Will you tell me when I grow up?”

As the harem spirit struggled to respond, she coughed, “Ahem, ahem, ahem.”

The weak spirit quickly changed the subject by asking, “What happened next?”

The slick ghost stopped talking suddenly. He looked troubled, as though he had just remembered something unpleasant.

The harem spirit asked curiously, “What’s wrong? Did the Heviel Dynasty end after the castration?”

The slick ghost remained silent.

The weakling spirit said in annoyance, “Shut up! Watch your language before the children.”

Harem spirit giggled, but she fell silent eventually.

The slick ghost sulked for a while before continuing, “No, I entered the palace smoothly right after the castration. I was lucky to enter the palace of a former consort.”

The slick ghost stated, “My life in the Consort’s Palace was not difficult. There were fewer political quarrels than in the palace of the concubines. All that was needed of me was to take good care of the former

consort.

“The former consort was the deceased emperor’s concubine; she was deprived of her freedom and condemned to live as a widow. So, some of the former consorts were restless. A eunuch that works in a former consort’s living quarters gets to enjoy privilege status.”

Initially, the slick ghost simply wanted to live a comfortable life, but as time went on, he grew restless and devised a plan to become the former consort’s lover.

“There were many who wanted to serve the former consort; there were eunuchs who tried to push me out. So, I lied to the former consort and said it had grown back.”

Harem spirit asked, “Really? The former consort bought this lie, right?”
