Chapter 82 Three levels of golden branches and jade leaves
Daming Palace is in charge of the power of the palace, and he is a eunuch.
And he is a real eunuch.
Because not every man who abandons his little brother can become a eunuch, and not everyone who becomes an eunuch is qualified to be called a "eunuch".
Sima Qian, the classmate who wrote such masterpieces as "Historical Records" and "Historical Records" became a eunuch because he was convicted, but he is definitely not qualified to be an eunuch.
Since the establishment of eunuchs and eunuchs in the Tang Dynasty, it was not until the reign of Emperor Gaozong of the Tang Dynasty that the two job titles "zhongyu eunuch" and "young eunuch" appeared. However, these high-ranking officials called "eunuchs" were not eunuchs.
.
It was not until the Ming Dynasty that the "Twenty-Four Eunuchs" were formally established to manage eunuchs. The leader of each eunuch was called an "eunuch", such as the eunuch who held the seal and the eunuch who supervised the eunuch.
In other words, only the heads of these twenty-four departments can obtain the honor of being called "eunuchs", other eunuchs are not worthy!
In Dareqing TV series, even the sweepers are often called "Eunuch Hua" or "Eunuch Cai", just like the managers or teachers in the bad street, it is a devaluation of the title due to compliments.
Jia Lian complained in his heart:
It turns out that even if you really traveled back in time to an era where you could enter the system with a single blow from the crotch, you wouldn't even be able to get the title of "eunuch". Alas - you'd be dead.
Dai Quan should have won over countless people and climbed to the position of Prime Minister of the Daming Palace.
In the Ming Dynasty Palace, he was inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people.
Moreover, the Daming Palace is not the residence of the emperor, but the retirement home of the emperor’s biological father, the Supreme Emperor.
It can be seen from this that Dai Quan is the proud servant of the Supreme Emperor, and even the current emperor must take a high look at him.
With such power, the ostentation cannot be underestimated.
Even the servants at his door had their nostrils turned upward. When they saw Jia Lian coming to pay homage with gifts, they only sneered:
"Our master is not here. No matter who you are, go to the corner gate and wait."
Jia Lian had no choice but to take the gifts carefully prepared by Jia Zhen to the corner gate and queue up with the officials waiting to see them.
With nothing to do and feeling uncomfortable just standing there, Jia Lian strolled outside the palace gate and looked around. He happened to catch up with the Prime Minister, who was in charge of the palace, coming back from the palace in a sedan chair, holding an umbrella and sounding gongs.
He is more majestic than the first-class officials of the current dynasty.
To enter the system, some people have to read tens of thousands of books since childhood. The lights are on at midnight and the chickens are on at night. Exam after exam is like peeling off skin over and over again, which makes them physically and mentally exhausted. But for some people, with a wave of a knife, their worries are gone. p>
Otherwise, all the capable eunuchs would have gone to practice martial arts later on. I guess now that they are rich and powerful, and there are no women to worry about, there really is nothing to pursue in life. Forget it, you can become Dugu Qiufei.<
/p>
.
I heard from Jia Zhen that Dai Quan, who has a high position and a lot of power, needs to say more nice things and do more flattery. Jia Lian is already ready to pursue Party A's father.
As a result, the story suddenly turned around and Party A’s father turned out to be his biological father.
Unexpectedly, when Dai Quan got off the sedan chair and saw Jia Lian, he immediately smiled:
"Isn't this Jia Lian from the Rongguo family? Why didn't you go in and waited outside the door?"
He turned around and cursed at the butler Dade and the servants who were kneeling at the door:|
"I'll beat you bunch of bastards!
All the rules I taught you were eaten by dogs? Why don’t you invite Mr. Jia into the house?
Although he is young, the title of Duke Rong will also belong to him in the future. Do you dare to let him stand outside the palace gate?"
Jia Lian was filled with wonder - what's wrong with this old eunuch? Didn't he say he was arrogant and difficult to take care of? How is this different from the legend?
But his face was very respectful, and he quickly kowtowed to Dai Quan:
"The old inner minister assists the Supreme Emperor. He is a hero of the country and an elder of the family. Don't say that I have just arrived. Even if I am lucky enough to be here to welcome him, I should do it."
Dai Quan felt comfortable listening and helped Jia Lian up with his own hands:
"Be sensible, sensible, and know etiquette. Oh my, I am so blessed."
When Jia Lian heard him address his father by name, he immediately understood that this powerful eunuch obviously wanted to get closer to him, and he secretly made a guess in his heart.
This old eunuch would not get close to a fifth-grade sinecure of his for no reason. I'm afraid - hey, he got some information about Jia Yuanchun in the palace.
In this case, why not use the river water to wash the boat? Not only did Jia Zhen's affairs, Jia Rong's affairs were taken care of, but also my own affairs were taken care of.
Jia Lian followed him to the mansion and changed his title naturally;
"How can my father's little blessing be compared with that of my old uncle?"
"How can I be lucky as a childless person?"
After Dai Quan sighed, he took a seat in the main hall and asked Jia Lian to sit down as well.
Jia Lian made some concessions and finally sat down.
This kind of hypocrisy is a must in the officialdom, otherwise, you will just be a "raw rice eater" who doesn't understand the rules.
Jia Lian sat in the guest seat and said with a smile:
"My nephew is not very talented. I met an expert in Gusu and taught me some math skills. I had nothing to do just now. When I looked around, I saw that Shibo's mansion was the only one in a million with the red snake around the seal.
The pattern of 'adding' three layers of golden branches and jade leaves' will lead to a prosperous official career.
If you have a triple pen stand and a lot of cases, you will definitely be granted the title of Marquis and the prime minister.
There are three layers of golden branches and jade leaves, and the position is the highest among ministers and ministers.
If the old eunuch maintains the three-level system of golden branches and jade leaves around him, then this place will be undefeated and noble people will be born in three generations."
Dai Quan himself was already rich and honorable, but he wanted to be rich for a long time. However, as a eunuch, he was afraid that he would have no successor. These days, he was thinking about whether to adopt his nephew. Jia Lian's words were right for him, so he smiled and said
:
"It turns out that my nephew still has this ability. Come here and explain in more detail so that I can understand how to achieve the 'Three Levels of Golden Branches and Jade Leaves'."
Jia Lian knew that he was uneducated, so he tried his best to speak plainly and understandably:
"In short, it means that your house has been built on the sealing site, and the official seal is just in front and left of the house. In addition, the Wenchang position in the southeast is opposite the White Pagoda, which is tall, thick, and imposing.
With the blessing, the official fortune will be prosperous and the literary fortune will be prosperous.
What is even more rare is that the left, right and back are each surrounded by three-story houses, and the inner and outer three-story houses are all in the shape of open golden branches and jade leaves. The left and right sand hands are protected by three-story arches.
This is a unique Feng Shui house.
Shibo is now a very popular minister, and his descendants will surely gain great wealth from his fame."
As soon as he said this, Dai Quan clapped his hands and laughed:
"Isn't that right! The youngest son of my third brother's family is a child prodigy. He was selected as a scholar when he was only twelve years old. I am about to adopt him. It seems that the child is destined to be wealthy.
Oh my, my nephew is really a Zhuge Liang!
Let me just say, your father only gave you a fifth-grade sinecure, which is wronging you.
The imperial court is thirsty for talents. A few days ago, the Supreme Emperor said that he had to select some rising stars among the nephews and nephews of meritorious officials. This time I have to present treasures to the Supreme Emperor."
Jia Lian stood up humbly:
"It's just a trick in the classroom. The uncle is so complimentary that my nephew doesn't dare to take it."
After being humble, let’s get down to business:
"My nephew's trip was entrusted by his elder brother Jia Zhen of Ningguo Mansion to donate his son Jia Rong's future."
I don’t want Dai Quan to suddenly have a serious look on his face:
