The old eunuch consciously realized that he had given himself away, coughed twice to cover it up, and then said, "So what if I did? This old man was from the Imperial Palace after all, you little girl wouldn't know what the palace looks like!"
Qin Sisi touched her nose, presuming the Imperial Palace she referred to was the modern-day Forbidden City. She had never been there, only seen pictures of it in books and online.
At that moment, the old eunuch spotted a detail in Qin Sisi's words and asked with a high-pitched voice, "What did you say before? Almost became a eunuch? So he didn't end up as one?"
After considering it, Qin Sisi replied innocently, "Of course not, because I happened to be there. He was so young, if he really became a eunuch, how would he live? There is no Emperor anymore, so there is no need for eunuchs, so I cured him. Saving a life is more meritorious than building a Seventh-level Pagoda. Right, grandpa?"
