-----------------
Eunuch Xi was not worried, Chi Jia had promised that he would deal with the first half of the plan. He had told him that he had his hands on a dicine that was impossible to detect.
When Su Yiqian sent the scentless and tasteless aphrodisiac to the Lai family, she might have never thought that one day she would get a taste of her dicine. Lin Yu who had been looking forward to dealing with the Su family of the capital, went ahead and experinted with the dicine that Su Yiqian sent to the Lai family.
Now the dicine that had been prepared by him was so excellent that even the imperial doctors would not be able to detect it even if they were to check everything thoroughly.
Because of this, Eunuch Xi did not have the smallest burden on his heart when he thought about how he was going to ruin Old Master Su.
Who asked that man to raise such problematic kids? One was much more difficult than the other. Not only were his kids problematic, even he was rather ruthless.
A few days passed by just like that, Old Master Su was busy looking for a skilled imperial physician to look at the arms of his son. Eunuch Xi, who knew that Old Master Su did not like him, purposely started to step in front of the old man. And just as he expected, Old Master Su would tease and taunt him, even going as far as saying that Eunuch Xi seed to have started to walk like a woman.
The eunuchs who followed behind Eunuch Xi had also heard about the gossip from others where they ntioned that Old Master Su was interested in Eunuch Xi and because he was interested in Eunuch Xi, he turned him into an incomplete man because he wanted to keep Eunuch Xi for himself.
When they first heard the rumours they thought that the gossip mongers were only talking nonsense, how was it possible for Old Master Su to fall for Eunuch Xi when they saw Old Master Su stop and yell at Eunuch Xi while teasing him for his feminine appearance, they could not help but question Old Master Su's actions.
After all, his son's arms were cut off and yet, Old Master Su had the ti to tease and taunt Eunuch Xi? Was this the kind of situation where he should be taunting Eunuch Xi for looking like a woman?
Old Master Su did not know that he was slowly being pushed into a pit, the reason he yelled at Eunuch Xi was because he wanted to relieve the frustration in his heart. He never thought that with Chi Jia and Eunuch Xi's careful control over the situation, his actions would be considered sothing else.
Because of Old Master Su's actions, the rumours that were spreading in the dark started to gain fiery montum slowly. People started to discuss how Old Master Su always paid attention to Eunuch Xi and how he was the one who cut off Eunuch Xi's manhood to make sure that he would be able to keep Eunuch Xi by his side.
At first, no one wanted to believe such a rumour after all, such things frequently happened. However, when they saw Old Master Su taunting and stopping Eunuch Xi even when he did not want to pay attention to him, like a child trying to get the attention of soone whom he liked, the rumours started to get accepted by the officials.
After all, who would have the ti to bully an Eunuch when their son was lying on the bed with his arms cut off?
The rumours were burning so fiercely that even the Empress heard about it and started to question Emperor Fei, who was speechless. He was yet to clear the doubts himself, what was he supposed to tell his wife?
He asked her not to believe in rumours but with the rumours running wild like this and Old Master Su still harping on Eunuch Xi's, forgive him, but even he started to believe that there was sothing wrong with Old Master Su.
The reason Su Wan asked this matter to be slowly escalated like this was to make sure that Eunuch Xi would beco the victim through and through, it was just that she never expected Lin Yu to move, which made it impossible for Old Master Su or Su Yiqian to find out about them.
The two of them were running around all the ti searching for soone who would be able to help Second Master Su including the Elder Master Su, how could they even know that their family had beco a joke?
Even Old Madam Su who stayed in the house all day long while caring about her second son did not know anything.
With no one stopping the rumours, the small kitten that could have been silenced with a twist of Old Master Su's hand beca a big tiger. It transford into a reality that many people started to believe while sympathizing with Eunuch Xi.
Because of a man's perverted sexuality, he was made to suffer like this. No wonder, Eunuch Xi hated Old Master Su so much that he wanted to kill him, it was because of this reason.
The rumours continued to fester more and more, no one from the Su family was aware of them as they were busy treating the injuries of Second Master Su.
Old Master Su was working very hard, and while he tried to ignore the looks that he received in the court after the accident of his son, he also had to listen to his wife's crying all day long. He was already doing everything in his hands, but his wife thought that he was not doing enough, which led to them quarrelling every day long.
He was worried about his son as well, but his wife thought and believed that he was pinning all his hope on Su Yiqian's child since she was pregnant with the child of the Emperor.
Frustrated and tired, when Old Master Su received the invitation to drink with colleagues, he did not refuse and agreed.
