Once the eunuch had fainted, Bai Long made his Yin Puppets carry them to the house he had one of them to and rent in a corner of the city. The area where Bai Long had made the Yin Puppet rent the house could be considered as the capital city"s most dangerous zone, and therefore while order was maintained on the streets, the patrolling soldiers wouldn"t even mind the screams of death as long as they came out of the buildings.
Entering the house with the fainted eunuch, Bai Long had him tied, while he started thinking on what to do.
If it was a woman, Bai Long had more than a hundred ways to make her reveal everything he wanted to know.
And even if it was a man, Bai Long could just threaten him by using castration to divulge all the details.
But, while a eunuch was the one who could let Bai Long know more than the maids or the guards, he was also the one who gave Bai Long a headache.
After all, in what way could one threaten a eunuch?
Having already been through with his d.i.c.k being cut off, what could Bai Long probably do to scare the eunuch and make him reveal what Bai Long wanted to know?
Kill his family?
Would a d.i.c.k less man really care about what happened to anyone? Not to mention what a huge pain it would be to search for his family in such a huge capital city.
Therefore, even though it might now work, Bai Long decided to bet on the fear of death, and hope that the eunuch despite losing his d.i.c.k, was still scared of dying.
To create a more intense environment and mood to torture the eunuch, Bai Long made the Yin Puppets remove all the sources of light inside the house, and shut the windows so that not a single ray of might could enter it.
Next, just like before Bai Long patiently waited for the eunuch to wake up on his own.
...
Chen Xiu whose body felt too hurt to even want to try and move, slowly opened his eyes to the pitch blackness which surrounded him on all sides.
Groaning uncomfortably due to the ropes which kept him tied up, he found that his mouth had been blocked shut by some sort of cloth.
Desperately trying to remember what happened, Chen Xiu thought back to how his family had sold him away to become a eunuch in the palace, how he still didn"t give up hope after being castrated, his desire to consume a special pill and make his d.i.c.k grow back at an even bigger size, the way he enjoyed watching the naked beauties inside the palace bath, being whipp.…
Shaking his head abruptly and stopping himself from thinking back so far, Chen Xiu focused on what he could remember from the past few hours.
After being sent out by the Eight princess to buy the sweets she liked, Chen Xiu hadn"t travelled far from the palace when many huge men surrounded him and began beating him.
Then, before he, Chen Xiu could shout or fight back, someone hit him on the back of his neck and knocked him out.
"Kidnap? Who in their right mind would kidnap a useless eunuch? You should kidnap beauties, morons."
Thinking so, Chen Xiu narrowed his eyes on an effort to try and see something, but didn"t manage to do so.
It was just then, that the sound of someone lighting a match could be heard. Following that Chen Xiu saw the tiny flame on the match lighting up the wick of a lamp.
Once this happened, the room began slowly illuminating and revealed everyone that was inside the room.
Gulping hard from realizing how many men there were in this room other than him, Chen Xiu felt that something definitely wasn"t right.
"You"ve finally woke up fatty."
Frowning from hearing the word he hated the most, Chen Xiu bit in the cloth which was stuffed inside his mouth and patiently waited.
"I"m not going to waste either of our time by talking c.r.a.p. I want you to answer all of my questions, about the palace, its structure, number if soldiers inside it, the number of queens, and so on.

"Humph! You think I, the great eunuch Chen Xiu, would betray my own kingdom? Never!"
As one of the men moved close and pulled out the rag from Chen Xiu"s mouth, another one of the men said, "Start with drawing a blueprint of the palace, and everything inside it."
After saying so, the same man who spoke just now came forward and placed a bottle of ink on the floor, and put a quill and paper scroll in Chen Xiu"s hands which were untied.
Holding the items he was given with his right hand, Chen Xiu threw them away without the slightest hesitation and coldly snorted.
"Forget about trying to make me turn into a traitor. I"ll never do that."
Saying those words Chen Xiu carefully observed to try and see what sort of expression his kidnappers would have.
Unfortunately, against all of his expectations, Chen Xiu"s captors didn"t seem angry in the slightest and had the same smile on each of their faces as if they had expected for this to happen all along.
"You think you are going to be considered a hero, because despite being powerless you didn"t betray your kingdoms? Laughable."
"Just spare the both of us the unnecessary trouble and cooperate with us fatty."
"We can even give you enough money to leave this kingdom, and settle down as a rich merchant in whichever kingdom you want."
"Take our offer fatty. Someone as old as you, this is the last chance you"ll have to earn some money and enjoy yourself before you die."
Chen Xiu wasn"t old with white hair on his head kind, but he understood that the men were saying.
For a non-cultivating eunuch like him, who was reaching his fifties and still hadn"t become the head eunuch, or obtained the favour of any of the queens or concubines, his future looked pretty bleak, if not completely hopeless.
Unless something happened which made someone inside the palace see some sort of worth in him, he would be forced to spend the rest of his life far away from the society in a house with the other old eunuchs and wait for the sweet taste of death to take him away.
Still, even though his future looked so disappointing and revolting, Chen Xiu shook his head and spoke with a great amount of determination.
"I. Will. Not. Betray. My. Kingdom!!!"
