Because these clothes were missing, Xu Tian checked each and every one of the newcomers who had just entered the palace.
Ultimately, he set his sights on a eunuch named Xiao Quanzi.
In fact, at the beginning, he didn't think there was anything suspicious about Xiao Quanzi.
When he did it, he did it just like any other newly promoted eunuch.
There wasn't even a single suspicious point to be found.
Moreover, this is also one of the most common processes in the imperial harem.
Every so often, new women are selected to enter the harem.
This little Quanzi was personally selected by an old eunuch in the palace.
Generally, these eunuchs would be allowed to take up their posts only after they had become familiar with the system.
However, Xiao Quanzi's every move seemed very incongruous.
When he saw Xu Tian, Xu Tian even had the illusion that this little Quanzi didn't know him at all.
These eunuchs usually came from poor families.
Some families, unable to afford to raise so many children, would send their sons to the palace to become eunuchs.
This way, not only can the burden on the family be reduced, but a sum of money can even be obtained.
Given his identity, Xu Tian didn't think that he should already know himself.
"What's your name?" he asked.
The young eunuch knelt on the ground and quickly said his new name, "Xiao Quanzi!"
Xu Tian mentally reviewed the name.
However, they did not directly take action against the young eunuch.
Instead, they told him to leave.
"Now that your masters inside are gone, you should all go and find other masters!"
Generally, palace maids and eunuchs serving in the inner palace would be required to be buried alive with their masters if the latter requested to be buried with them upon their death.
But if not, then the master's confidants and others will be buried with him.
However, these concubines were not yet at that level.
Therefore, the palace maids and eunuchs in the imperial palace could choose other masters, and some palace maids who reached the required age would be sent back directly.
Xu Tian went straight back to the Imperial Study.
"Your Majesty, I have someone I suspect, but he is just a eunuch!"
Li Zhi looked at Xu Tian and asked, "Is Master facing some difficulty?"
Xu Tian nodded.
He felt that although Xiao Quanzi was a newly arrived eunuch, he answered all his questions with ease.
They look like they're well-trained.
Although his demeanor when facing high-ranking officials was indeed somewhat convincing—trembling all over and shifty-eyed—it was still quite convincing.
However, Xu Tian still felt that the little eunuch looked very suspicious.
"I need to conduct a test, and this test requires Your Majesty's participation."
When Li Zhi heard Xu Tian say this, he agreed without hesitation.
Even if it were for something else, let alone to break this epidemic, he would absolutely trust Xu Tian.
"Master, what do you want me to do?" he asked directly.
When no one else was around, Li Zhi always addressed Xu Tian as Master.
Xu Tian directly stated his plan.
Li Zhi nodded.
"Master is always so thoughtful."
Xu Tian immediately ordered a lockdown of the incident that occurred in the imperial city.
Although no one in the local community knows about this, it is ensured that someone in Wuzhen will specifically leak this information.
