Should he kill the son?
But what about the rest of the family, should he kill the entire family.
This thought just fleeted before it vanished from his mind.
After that what next, run away?
Not considering the fact that this was the Imperial palace and it would be investigated, he would be found out.
Eunuch Gao didn't have the heart, courage and intelligence to kill.
Neither did he have the strength, skill and resolve.
What if, what if he was counter killed!.
He was just an ordinary lowest tier Eunuch.
Positioned far away, in this secluded area of the Palace, acting as a "caretaker " for the boundary keeper.
The only thing was that the boundary keeper never came out, asked for anything, nor collected his wages.
Hence he was free, unfettered and collecting the other's wages into their pockets.
He and the former Eunuch Gao, fattening themselves up.
But now the script has changed
Tears streamed from Eunuch Gao's face, going into sobs.
Lin Ping was surprised at the ensuring actions, he had just asked for his wages and the other party was weeping.
He had even prepared certain schemes in his mind, and Lin Ping had also considered the fact that if the other party was an expert or something, he would just let go of whatever wages.
After all the most important thing was life.
And he could also sell the livestock he already planned on selling and use the money from the sale as his foundation to settle in this world.
After all, his entire intent from the beginning for collecting the money was to live a beautiful comfortable life in this new world.
Hence it wasn't a do or die afar.
But never would Lin Ping had imagined that this Eunuch Gao would burst into tears.
The never imagined of Lin Ping would continue as the next thing Lin Ping saw was this Eunuch go on his knees and grabs his legs.
Sobbing, " Please have mercy "
Why is this happening, my Father said it wouldn't happen at all !
....
Lin Ping listened to the strange rambling of this man.
" My father said it wouldn't happen!?, please have mercy !?"
Truly an interesting person, within just two minutes, snort and tears had already covered the other's face, he couldn't even discern the other party's face clearly.
He didn't understand what the Eunuch Gao was sobbing so much, wailing and pulling his legs.
Making a sight easy for one to misunderstand, which Lin Ping imagined as, " a short fatty wailing hard, in front a tall, handsome, physically endowed young man"
" A bully?, or what would cross the mind of another "
Even he was moved seeing such a person crying so in from, if not he was the himself and knew what was happening, he would have caused whatever could make a person weep so.
Lin Ping crosschecked his mind, to see through all the things he had done, because...
He didn't curse the other's father or something?
The only untoward thing Lin Ping could remember was when he slept of and it seemed like one of his goat had brought it butt towards the other's face.
But he was innocent!, that was on the goat not him!
The only thing he had done was ask for his money!
There was truly cursing of father going on.
Eunuch Gao cursed the day he was born.
" Oh wretched was the day I was born "
" Oh wretched Fate for making me the son of a greedy, cunning Eunuch, and having him groom me, oh wretched "
Eunuch Gao's heart sang songs of lamentations, it was all his Father's fault, the previous Enunch Gao, his Fake uncle.
He had stolen money and had taught him.
Telling him not to worry that the boundary keeper was a fool.
Ten years ago, a man had come to meet the then 15 year old Gao Gao, who was just living barely by in the rural slums.
This Fake Eunuch Gao that was clearly not celibate had supposedly come to the take him to the Imperial Palace to give him a legacy.
A legacy that would ensure him a life of prosperity.
And legacy it was, from that thin short kid, Gao Gao had become a fat! young man.
Never having to struggle again, he did no more work, lazing of.
Never having to go hungry, he ate well and enjoyed himself.
Life was good.
He didn't even live by the moral code of the Eunuchs, he was just like his Father, who others thought was his distant uncle.
A fake Eunuch.
He was even worst than his father enjoying the indulgences and carnality of life more.
A true life of prosperity it had been been.
And now " the cock had come to crow "
He was been asked for all.
Gao Gao he remember how he was an innocent kid, till his father had corrupted him.
Now the old man had gone, leaving him to " pay the piper's tune ".
Gao Gao wept.
