But in such matters, without evidence, a resemblance means nothing; how could he be held accountable now that his eldest son is already married and has children?

Over the years, however, the distance between the couple had grown, extending to their legitimate children. Especially in the past two years, it seemed as if he indeed harboured intentions of elevating one of his concubines.

None of the legitimate sons and grandsons stood out in ability, whereas the three sons from the concubine, though only around ten years old, each showed prodigious talent, much to the delight of their father.

Eunuch Li was both pleased and anxious upon learning of this situation.

He never expected he would have descendants, now having both sons and grandsons.

Originally he planned to serve the Emperor for a couple more years before retiring to his hometown. Now it seemed he had more to consider.

Old Master Zhen was unkind and unjust, wishing to divorce his devoted wife in favor of a concubine—such a man was unworthy of being a court official.

He thought of saving more silver to leave for his descendants and, given the chance, would speak ill of the Zhen surname in front of the Emperor, or perhaps take advantage of the Emperor’s good mood to request a favor, using the excuse that Lady Zhen once saved his life. If he could secure an imperial decree for her, Old Master Zhen would not dare divorce his wife.

After all, a Lady of Imperial Decree was nothing but a title, bearing no real significance; the late emperor would bestow it whimsically when in good spirits.

Eunuch Li didn’t consider this a significant issue.

But having personally served the New Emperor, he realized that he was nothing like the late emperor; the new ruler was not one to grant titles of Lady of Imperial Decree without reason.

And what could he, a mere eunuch, really do?

Even as a favored person close to the Emperor, he could only arrange for someone to secretly warn Lord Zhen, ensuring he would not rashly divorce his wife.
