"Let's all disperse!" Ying Yinman signaled to Da Changqiu to disperse everyone.
It's not that she doesn't want to punish Hu Ji, but now even if she temporarily exercises the power of the harem, if she wants to punish a concubine, the First Emperor must agree.
And such a big incident in the harem is not a good thing for Fusu.
Concubine Hua had no idea that Hu Ji could be so imprudent. She never thought that someone who could get into the harem would be so careless and speak so freely.
"I really don't understand how she can survive until now!" Concubine Hua also left, whispering, not daring to discuss the matter any more.
Da Changqiu looked at the pale Hu Ji with cold eyes, he was looking for death.
They can't do anything to Hu Ji now, but when the First Emperor returns to Xianyang, Hu Ji will undoubtedly die, and even Hu Hai will be implicated, and the forces behind it will not be easy.
The other concubines, princes and princesses in the harem also stayed away, for fear of having anything to do with this matter.
You can object to Fusu becoming the prince, but you cannot say that the prince is not the heir to the throne.
Ying Yinman was also a little confused. He never thought that he would be able to create such a big trap on his first day in charge of the harem.
Therefore, Ying Yinman looked at Dachangqiu, completely confused as to why Dachangqiu, an old man in the palace, would make this matter so big that it would lead to such a situation that could not be ended.
"Does Da Changqiu have a grudge against Hu Ji?" Ying Yinman asked Da Changqiu in a low voice.
If not, why would he want to put Hu Ji to death?
"The Zajia family doesn't have any deep grudge against Hu Ji, but there is a bit of grudge against the people behind her!" Da Changqiu said lightly.
"The person behind Hu Ji?" Ying Yinman looked at Da Changqiu and understood.
Behind Hu Ji is Zhao Gao, who is also a eunuch. Zhao Gao is now in the limelight and is ranked as the servant of the Nine Ministers. However, as an old man in the palace, Dachangqiu was upstaged by Zhao Gao. There is no excuse for no hatred.
.
"The Zajia view is that Zhao Gao is not a good person and will definitely bring disaster to Da Qin in the future!" Dachangqiu continued.
"That's it?" Ying Yinman didn't believe it.
Before Zhao Gao, Dachangqiu was the absolute controller of the harem, but after Zhao Gao came, he first took away Dachangqiu's right to be the Che Yuling, and then took away Dachangqiu's right to hold the seal.
With these two major rights taken away, how could Da Changqiu let Zhao Gao go!
As for saying that Zhao Gao would bring disaster to the Qin Dynasty, it might just be Da Changqiu's excuse to take revenge on Zhao Gao.
"The eldest princess thinks that the Za family really wants to take revenge on Zhao Gao?" Da Changqiu also knew what Ying Yinman was thinking, so he explained again.
"Zajia is not a healthy person to begin with. Half of his body has been buried in the ground, and he has no pursuit of rights!"
"The Zajia family has served King Zhao, King Xiaowen, King Zhuang Xiang, and then His Majesty the First Emperor. They are already elders of four dynasties, and the favor they have received has reached the peak of eunuchs. They will not be jealous of Zhao Gao."
Only then did Ying Yinman remember that the old man in front of him was not an ordinary old man, but an old man who had experienced four generations of Qin kings. In terms of seniority, he was not inferior to many veterans in the dynasty.
"Zhao Gao is not a good person. He is too ambitious and will get into trouble sooner or later!" Dachangqiu continued.
"How can you see it?" Ying Yinman asked hurriedly.
If there is an old man in the family, it is like having a treasure. An old man like Changqiu may have his own unique views on things.
"The chief of the carriages, the commander of the carriages, the eunuchs who hold the seals, and the prince washing the horses are all leftover from the Zajia family. However, has the eldest princess ever seen the Zajia family allow any eunuch in the palace to serve as a court official?" Da Changqiu looked at it.
Ying Yinman asked rhetorically.
Ying Yinman shook her head. She had only heard of one eunuch serving as a court official, and that was the current servant, Zhao Gao.
"As a eunuch, Zajia is more aware of the psychological distortions of those of us who are not healthy."
"If you can't withstand temptation and loneliness, it will bring huge disaster to the court, because no one knows your Majesty's thoughts better than us, and doing what he wants is what we are best at."
Ying Yinman nodded. The eunuch lives in the harem and serves the king. He has many ways to please the king. He can even write and issue royal edicts on his behalf.
He is also the person whom the king can trust most easily. Once he has any evil intentions, the consequences will be dire.
"But the Zajia know better that our glory, wealth, and rights all come from the king, so only by ensuring the king's rights can we live a better life."
"But this son Zhao Gao is different. His ambitions are too great. As a eunuch, he has made friends with powerful ministers and even ranked among the nine ministers. The Za family cannot imagine that such a person will do anything against the rules in the future."
Da Changqiu continued to talk about his worries.
Zhao Gao is now Ying Zheng's favorite minister, and because of Ying Zheng's domineering attitude, all the courtiers also chose to acquiesce in Zhao Gao's appointment as the Ninth Minister. When it was replaced by another king, a eunuch wanted to serve as the Ninth Minister. The impeachment memorial
It can also be filled with Qinian Palace.
"Yin Man still doesn't know the name of Great Changqiu!" Ying Yinman then remembered that they had never looked squarely at this elder of the Four Dynasties, Great Changqiu, and they didn't even know his name.
Not only because he was a eunuch, but also because Dachangqiu was a dwarf, and he entered the palace as an actress.
And what is an actor? It means that the family committed a serious crime, and then the crime was so serious that even if they were killed, they would not feel the hatred, and then the family member was turned into an actor.
In other words, these people are the ones who have committed such heinous crimes that even killing them is considered a gift. Only acting as actors can wash away their crimes.
The vicious vow that men will be slaves for generations and women will be prostitutes for generations to come is what actors are talking about!
Because of this, no one has ever respected Da Changqiu.
"The eldest princess is the second person to ask the name of the Za family!" Dachangqiu smiled slightly, looked at Ying Yinman and said.
"Who was the last one?" Ying Yinman was curious.
"Prince Fusu!" Dachangqiu said with a smile.
This is also the reason why he did not spare any effort to take care of Fusu, because Fusu was the first prince who met him, did not sneer, and respected him, and asked him his name when they first met.
"So it's the prince's brother!" Ying Yinman nodded, understanding why Dachangqiu had been helping Fusu.
"Zajia, Youzhan!" Dachangqiu said his name.
"Yin Man remembers it!" Ying Yin Man nodded and asked for advice, "How does Dachang Qiu think Yin Man should deal with Hu Ji and Hu Hai?"
"Reduce his salary, take away his guards and maids, and take away the number of eunuchs. Although he is a concubine, he is not as good as a concubine. We will make a decision after your majesty returns to the palace!" Da Changqiu spared no effort to teach Ying Yinman how to deal with the affairs of the harem.
They can't make things big now, but they can't just let Hu Ji go. Otherwise, where is the majesty of the Ying family and the majesty of the prince.
Therefore, the best way is to cut Hu Ji's monthly salary and reduce the number of soldiers, maids, and eunuchs in Hu Ji's palace, so that although she still has the status of Ji, she does not have the essence of Ji, which is a disguised downgrade.
