Chapter 4

The visitors in the live streaming room were all discussing the young actor playing "Wei Xiaobao" and the streamer Lin Yi, filled with a sense of mischief.

Lin Yi glanced at the live stream comments, smiled, and didn't mind. Throughout his journey, he had long discovered that others couldn't see the floating, semi-transparent screen.

Just like his own tracking device, it was invisible.

He was still acting intensely with Wei Xiaobao, quickly becoming close cousins despite being strangers just moments ago, like long-lost relatives.

The two were genuinely emotional, meeting relatives in the palace and almost shedding tears, even without their "little dings."

In fact, both of them, harboring their own schemes, were fake eunuchs, still with their "JJ."

"Big Cousin, which Li Gonggong are you following? Where do you live?" Wei Xiaobao asked casually, actually trying to fish for information and find a way out of this place.

This place was really huge! He had been wandering for a long time and was completely lost, unable to find his way out!

Lin Yi said with a bitter smile, "I just entered the palace yesterday, following Li Gonggong from the imperial kitchen. I came out today to look for you, Big Cousin. This place is so big, I'm already lost! I can't even find where I'm staying!"

Seeing Wei Xiaobao's expression change slightly and his eyes flicker, Lin Yi found it amusing. He thought to himself, "This kid must have just sneaked into the palace, right?"

He remembered from the original story that Wei Xiaobao killed the real Xiao Gui Zi and planned to escape the next day but got lost in the Forbidden City. It was precisely because of this that he accidentally met the young Emperor Kangxi and became good friends.

Pausing for a moment, Lin Yi continued, "I heard you're following Hai Gonggong and doing well in the palace. You must know the way, right? Can you take me back to the imperial kitchen first?"

Wei Xiaobao's eyes flickered, and he smiled, "Of course I know the way."

Lin Yi also smiled, "Then please take me back, Big Cousin. This place is really big, and it's easy to get lost."

"Sure, it is big!" Wei Xiaobao nodded, smiling on the surface but cursing inwardly. Damn, this place is really big! He was lost too!

Wei Xiaobao had to pretend he knew the way and led this "Big Cousin" who had dropped from the sky, wandering around.

After walking for a while, Wei Xiaobao was in great distress. He was also lost, and if they kept going, Xiao Gui Zi's identity would be exposed!

At this moment, the two passed through a moon gate and saw a room on the left with the door slightly ajar. As they walked by, a burst of food aroma wafted out.

Wei Xiaobao had just sneaked into the palace and couldn't find a place to eat. His stomach was already growling with hunger. Smelling the food, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva.

His eyes darted around, and Wei Xiaobao looked at Lin Yi, smiling, "Big Cousin, we've been walking for a while and are a bit hungry. Let's go in and eat something!"

Saying this, Wei Xiaobao gently pushed the door and peeked inside.

He saw a dozen or so plates of pastries on the table. Seeing no one in the room, he boldly walked in, gesturing for Lin Yi to follow.

Seeing Wei Xiaobao's actions, Lin Yi found it amusing. He had already figured out that this kid was indeed new to the palace and didn't know the way, just pretending earlier.

He followed Wei Xiaobao into the room.

Wei Xiaobao had already picked up a thousand-layer cake and started eating. After a few bites, he couldn't help but secretly praise it.

The thousand-layer cake was made with layers of flour and honey lard, with a fragrant osmanthus scent, both fluffy and sweet. The fine pastries of Yangzhou were famous throughout the world, and the brothels were also very particular about the pastries they served to customers.

Wei Xiaobao often tasted the pastries before the customers, despite the beatings from the madam. The cake he was eating now was clearly more exquisite than those in the brothel. He thought, "This thousand-layer cake is really good. I bet this is the largest brothel in Beijing."

He had no concept of the palace or eunuchs, thinking this was the largest brothel in Beijing. Eating the thousand-layer cake, he looked at Lin Yi and smiled, "Big Cousin, come, try this. The pastries here are really good!"

"Sure!" Lin Yi nodded and smiled, walking up and picking up a thousand-layer cake to eat. After wandering around the Forbidden City for a while, he was also a bit hungry.

In the live streaming room, a barrage of comments appeared:

"Streamer, you're not being considerate! I'm still hungry, and you guys are already eating! Ahhhhhh!"

"Speaking of which, these pastries look really high-end. The streamer is indeed a tycoon!"

"Streamer, let go of that cake, let me have it!"

"Hey? Someone's coming!"

...

Lin Yi and Wei Xiaobao were eating the pastries when they heard someone approaching from outside.

Wei Xiaobao's expression changed, and he took two small steamed buns, giving one to Lin Yi. With his rich experience in stealing food, he knew not to take too much from a bowl or plate to avoid being noticed.

Then, he took two pieces of mung bean yellow and two pieces of minced meat pancakes, still one for each of them.

After that, he slightly moved the pastries on the plate to hide the traces of his theft.

After doing all this, Wei Xiaobao pulled Lin Yi to a hiding spot in the room.

The two peeked out and saw a boy of about fourteen or fifteen years old, dressed in short clothes, walk into the room.

The boy didn't eat the pastries on the table but started beating a cloth bag hanging from the beam.

After a while, he went to hit a leather dummy by the wall.

The boy punched the leather dummy's chest, then extended his arms to hug its waist and pushed it to the ground, as if he had a deep grudge against it.

Lin Yi's eyes lit up. If his guess was correct, this young boy was the young Emperor Kangxi!

Kangxi was a famous emperor in history, even though he was an emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

While he was still watching, Wei Xiaobao laughed and walked out from his hiding place, saying, "The leather dummy is dead, what's the fun? I'll play with you."

The young boy was slightly startled by the sudden appearance of someone but immediately showed a delighted expression when he heard the offer to play. "Okay, come on up!"

Wei Xiaobao pounced and tried to twist the boy's arm.

The boy sidestepped, hooked Wei Xiaobao's leg with his right foot, and Wei Xiaobao lost his balance and fell to the ground.

The boy said, "Pah, you don't know how to wrestle."

Wei Xiaobao shouted, "Who says I don't?"

Wei Xiaobao, feeling humiliated, couldn't back down. He jumped up and tried to grab the boy's left leg.

The boy reached out to grab Wei Xiaobao's back, but Wei Xiaobao dodged, and the boy missed.

Wei Xiaobao remembered some martial arts techniques that Mao Shiba had used and suddenly punched the boy's chin with his left hand. There was a "bang" as he hit the target.

The boy was stunned, his eyes showing anger. This little eunuch actually dared to hit him?

Wei Xiaobao laughed, "Pah, you don't know how to wrestle!"

The anger in the boy's eyes turned to curiosity. Without a word, he feinted with his left hand and grabbed the other's waist with his right hand.

The two began a fierce struggle in the room.
