'Forever Green Palace? Could Quincy be in there?’ Darryl thought. He could not contain his impulse and walked over quietly without a second thought.
Once he entered, the first thing that came into Darryl's sight was a huge garden. The garden was unique and beautiful. Behind it was a luxurious bedroom.
There were a dozen eunuchs kneeled neatly in the garden. They all looked flustered as they kneeled there with foreheads covered in sweat, and none of them dared to take a breath. It was obvious that they were being scolded.
A lady in a long dress was sitting on a chair in front of those eunuchs, with her left leg resting on her right leg. The lady was in her twenties, her facial features were extremely beautiful, and she emitted a noble aura.
As Darryl observed secretly, he saw the lady take out a little leather belt. She stared tightly at the eunuchs with arrogance written all over her face.
"I'm not happy today. I order all of you to write a poem to describe my beauty. You are all so dilly-dallying. Haven't you all thought of any? If you still can't produce it, I will be extremely angry!" she shouted.
Slap!
As she spoke, a sadistic smile appeared on the woman's face. She swung the leather belt in her hand at the same time.
In an instant, the kneeling eunuchs started to tremble. They wanted to cry.
The lady in front of them was the empress's youngest daughter, Princess Evergreen. The Empress pampered her the most, but Princess Evergreen was famous for being mischievous and willful. She enjoyed torturing the eunuchs for fun whenever she felt bored. It could be said that almost all of the eunuchs in the palace had been bitten by her before. They tried to avoid her as much as they could. No one dared to insult her.
That day, Princess Evergreen suddenly had the thought and asked the eunuchs to start writing poems to compliment her beauty. However, the eunuchs could not produce a poem and were punished to kneel on the ground.
All of the eunuchs were afraid, and their whole bodies were shaking. All of them knew that if they could not produce a poem, they would be beaten!
"Your Highness, I have one!"
One of the eunuchs, trying to butter her up, said to Princess Evergreen,
"A row of little egret were flying in the sky,
"A few ducks were walking on the ground,
"Princess captured the little egret and ate a few roast ducks with beer."
When he said the last two sentences, the eunuch shook his head and hand as if he was enjoying himself.
