"Damn Jian Shuo, relying on the grace bestowed by His Majesty, he actually did such a bastard thing. He is truly unworthy of a human being!"
This is a very elegant courtyard in the Central and Western Garden of the Imperial Palace. It does not occupy a large area, but the pavilions, pavilions, bridges and flowing water are all equally complete and ingenious. The decoration inside the courtyard is even more exquisite, perhaps
Even the decoration inside the emperor's palace is completely inferior to that of this inconspicuous courtyard, even though it doesn't look very conspicuous from the outside.
This courtyard is where the ten permanent servants gathered to discuss matters. In the past few years, all major decisions involving the interests of the ten permanent servants were basically made here. If the imperial palace is the place that determines the future direction of the Han Dynasty, then
, then this is the place where it is decided what attitude the palace will take towards the policies in the court.
This is the brain of the big man's brain. This is the heart of the big man's heart.
But now it is full of anxiety, uneasiness and anger. All the people in the Shichangshi have gathered together in this small courtyard, but because everyone is in a bad mood,
Therefore, their conversations with each other have also lost the "calmness" and "elegance" they used to advertise.
"Okay, Duan Gui, if you don't say a few words, you won't lose a piece of meat. And Li Song, if you run around there, you won't pick up a piece of gold."
Seeing those guys who used to have their eyes above their heads now looking like lost dogs, Zhang Rang, the only person present who still had some manners, had to say something, otherwise, what would the situation outside look like in a while? He Zhang Rang
I don’t know clearly, but this group of people will definitely collapse first, and then there will be no chance of a comeback.
"Then Zhang Changshi, what do you think we should do? Now that boy Jian Shuo is obviously thinking of living alone. He is just waiting for His Majesty to find a new king alone if something unexpected happens, just like Lord Cao Teng in the Great Changqiu.
Same. Then we will definitely become a thorn in his side. Our life and death will be a trivial matter at that time, and my family will become his meal."
Although Bi Lan behaved better than Duan Gui and Li Song, it can be heard from the tone of his words that he is equally uneasy now. But what he has to admit is that what he said is exactly what he said.
The issues that worry the waiter.
As he said, once Jian Shuo succeeds in Conglong, then as the first person to support him, Jian Shuo will naturally have all the power in the world. Whether it is to establish his own image or to obtain actual benefits, Shi Changshi will become
His first target.
"Zhang Gong, why haven't there been any news about the little palace servant I asked you to bribe? He must be scared, right?"
As Zhang Rang's feminine voice sounded, everyone who was originally restless seemed to be quiet as if they had been cast a silence spell. Obviously, although everyone is enjoying themselves in intrigues and fights on weekdays, at the critical moment
, the ten permanent servants will still act in unison, and the leader-level figure they recommend is the most bold and careful Zhang Rang.
Speaking of the history of Zhang Rang's fortune, it can be called a living "Biography of the Eunuch of the Eastern Han Dynasty".
Zhang Rang is from Yingchuan County. Although there are many aristocratic families in Yingchuan, the Zhang family is not a famous one. Therefore, Zhang Rang, who entered the palace in the first year of junior high school, was just a small eunuch who managed miscellaneous things, and was responsible for a certain
The monkey wearing sandals is not much different.
However, Zhang Rang was a smart man, and he was obviously much smarter than Jian Shuo in dealing with people. Unlike Jian Shuo, he was more of a cunning warrior and a fighter among eunuchs. Therefore, by the late period of Emperor Huan's dynasty, he was already a palace official.
The famous Xiaohuangmen.
If it develops on this trajectory, Zhang Rang's future status will probably be just one of the ten permanent servants, instead of having the absolute leadership position he has now. Even when his predecessors Cao Jie, Hou Lan, and Wang Fu were still alive,
Able to shake hands.
The turning point for all this was the rise of Han Emperor Liu Hong.
Although Liu Hong boarded the plane successfully with the great help of Cao Jie and others, because Liu Hong was only twelve years old at the time, according to convention, as the empress dowager, Dou had the right to listen to politics behind the curtain. Of course,
We don’t know whether the curtain was lowered or not. After all, the overall atmosphere of the Han Dynasty was quite open. But at least the queen mother had considerable power and arbitrarily enfeoffed members of the Dou family as marquises. At the same time, she actively attracted the scholar leaders Chen Fan and others.
Help with government affairs in the court.
Although Cao Jie and others also received awards for their meritorious service, all the power in the court at that time was controlled by relatives and aristocratic families. And these people obviously had no good impression of those guys with incomplete limbs. They spent all day doing nothing but studying.
In addition to the future of the Han Dynasty and the development of their own family, the only thing left to do is to study how to get rid of the group of eunuchs who in their eyes are completely harmful to all but useless.
What I want to add here is that in fact, eunuchs were really indispensable to the ancient Chinese court. Why? Let me just say one thing, that is, China does not know when it started to be passed down.
A habit is to write detailed notes on the emperor’s daily life. This daily life
What does the note do? In addition to making it easier for future generations to understand the spirit of the speeches of previous leaders, one of its important functions is to record which woman the emperor slept with at night, and then deduce from this whether the seed in the woman's belly is a dragon seed, so as to
In case the emperor's descendants are mixed with some weird bloodlines.
Of course, in fact, we also know that the function of this thing is very limited. For example, Zhu Di's children's shoes seem not to be Zhu Yuanzhang's offspring, but a weapon left by Zhu Yuanzhang's Minotaur to retaliate against Lao Zhu; another example is that our child's shoes are said to be Wen Chengwu
In fact, Germany is nothing but the legendary Qianlong children's shoes. The story of Chen Luo is also very popular.
Well, no matter what, the emperor's nightlife is also an important document, and the emperor can't tell anyone the next day after he's finished, who I slept with yesterday, and how many times I slept with him a night. In that case, the emperor will probably change in the end.
It has become the legendary tentacle monster that is the biggest natural enemy of Mahou Soju. After all, no one will say that he cannot even defeat one of them.
Face, face!
Therefore, in order to inherit the purpose of historians to seek truth from facts, it is natural to observe the facts of the emperor's actions in order to make sure that the things recorded in his writings are true and accurate. However, problems will arise as a result.
After all, historians are not all Sima Qian. Even if the emperor is an exhibitionist like Song Taizong Zhao Kuangyi or Genghis Khan Temujin, he will not want his favored woman to be exhausted (this is doubtful) and be ruined by the literary and artistic youth who writes history books.
A sneak attack for young/middle-aged people. Besides, let a physically and mentally healthy man watch a live movie there, just once or twice. If it happens like this every day, wouldn't it be easy for him to become a very scared hero?
, it can fly~
Of course, someone asked the palace maid why not. Think about it, if a beautiful woman is there, let alone what the person who finally got the opportunity to sleep with her that night thinks, be careful that the recorder has not finished recording.
Things on the record. As for changing a palace maid who offends the emperor and affects the emperor's sexual interest, be careful that the emperor wants to settle a score with you.
Therefore, it is not only safe and risk-free to find a eunuch to keep records, but it can also stimulate the unique taste of some hentai emperors.
It's just that although the eunuchs are still very useful to the emperor's nightlife, they and some relatively noble scholars have become incompetent since the first party ban, so when those scholars came to power, they naturally had to do something.
liquidation.
At that time, the alliance of relatives and scholars not only had a huge advantage in the court, but also had the military power of the entire Luoyang. It can be said that the eunuch group at that time seemed to be in turmoil, and everyone in the group only wanted to protect themselves and did not dare to
Do what he wants again.
It's just that since ancient times, "the bold will be starved to death, and the timid will starve to death", so in this period when everyone is in danger, there is one person who dares to commit crimes. With the door open, he still collects money and does things, so that suddenly
There was a lot of traffic in front of this person's house. You want to ask who is so brave. Yes, this person is our Comrade Zhang Rang.
Because of his bold style, although the eunuchs finally defeated the alliance of relatives and scholars, and Cao Jie, Wang Fu, Hou Lan and others regained control of the situation, Zhang Rang, who was named a regular servant due to his merits,
The guy became an undisputed leader among the younger generation. Although he also attracted the suppression of Cao Jie, Wang Fu and others, there are always some people who are difficult to suppress once they gain momentum, and Zhang Rang
, obviously belongs to this kind of person.
So when Zhang Rang, the backbone of the Ten Constant Attendants, opened his mouth, everyone's eyes naturally had a hint of expectation.
"That bastard Jian Shuo has surrounded the Jiade Palace, and everyone who comes in and out is strictly monitored by him. It is really difficult to pass on the news. But Zhang Changshi can rest assured that although Jian Shuo has some abilities, he is still a vulgar person after all.
A martial artist, but the guy Zhang Changshi asked me to contact is quite shrewd and should be able to find an opening."
Seeing that his name was called, Zhang Gong, one of the ten permanent attendants, immediately answered respectfully and in detail, fearing that due to his own negligence, Zhang Rang would make a mistake in judgment and ruin the future of his own people.
.
Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock... As a series of knocks with a unique rhythm sounded, Zhang Gong immediately jumped up like a spring and ran towards the door. After a while, he saw a worried face.
The sexy one returned to the house.
"The exact news has just arrived. His Majesty is afraid that he has returned to his former glory and intends to pass the throne to the Emperor's Second Son Association. I don't know what order Jian Shuo received from His Majesty. He sent people to spread the imperial edict to announce who will enter the palace. I'm afraid it's...
"
"Hey, Your Majesty, it's a pity..." Zhang Rang sighed slightly sadly. This sigh can be said to be sincere. After all, an emperor like Liu Hong who is easy to talk and has great skills is really too good.
Hard to come across.
"Chang Shi Zhang, how should we respond? If we let Jian Shuo's hand go, then we..."
"Since he was unkind to Jian Shuo, then don't blame us for being unjust." Zhang Rang, who quickly adjusted his mood, had an infinite chill in his feminine voice. It was obvious that he was also very dissatisfied with Jian Shuo's behavior of eating alone.
.
"Han Kui, you have the closest relationship with the He family brothers and sisters. Please reveal this matter to that woman a little bit."
"No problem, I, Han Kui, will handle the matter. Don't worry, Changshi Zhang."
"Guo Sheng, if Jian Shuo dies, it will still be dangerous for us, so you must get Jian Shuo's head. If necessary, you need to use it to exchange for the support of Queen Mother He."
"Guo Sheng understands."
"Okay, we should get ready. Your Majesty has treated me well in the past, and we should also make arrangements for your Majesty's well-being and let him go happily. This can be regarded as the final loyalty to him by us ministers."
"What Zhang Changshi said is absolutely true."
The air in the palace seems to have become even more suffocating...
