With his own thoughts in mind, the little fat man calmed down. As long as the Queen Mother didn't mean to get rid of him, he would definitely find a chance to fight back. These days, the little yellow men are all very familiar with him, especially
That Song Dian would occasionally reveal some secret information. For example, he was not sent by the Queen Mother, but was ordered by Zhongchang Shihou Lan to protect him.
This was the first time he heard the name Hou Lan. He Xiu had told him before that it was only Cao Jie and Wang Fu.
"Hou Zhongchang, how powerful are you in this palace?"
The little fat man asked curiously.
"The country, the eunuchs in the palace are just private slaves of the country, how can they have any power? It's just that Hou Zhong often stayed with the late emperor for the longest time, so most of the father-in-laws also obeyed him. Only the prince and Cao Gong often had conflicts with each other.
Quite Ci..." After hearing this, the little fat man roughly understood that this guy's power in the palace should be equal to that of Wang and Cao, or if this little Huangmen didn't flatter and exaggerate, he would just
I'm afraid he is still above the two of them.
"Oh, so you are also a member of Hou Zhongchang?"
The little fat man asked with a smile.
How could Song Dian dare to answer the question? He quickly shook his head and said: "I am a private slave of the country and do not belong to others..." The little fat man just smiled and said: "Hahaha, these words really make me happy."
I feel so happy that I have General Dou to help me with my foreign affairs and the Queen Mother my domestic affairs. If my talents and virtues don’t allow me to do so, I may have to practice with the palace for dozens more years. I don’t know how long my slaves will have to live in poverty..."
Hearing this, Song Dian was stunned and speechless. The party members and them had always been mortal enemies. Dou Wu had the support of hundreds of officials in the court and the support of the Queen Mother in the palace. The eunuch also disappeared in an instant and never dared to do it again.
Even the emperor did not dare to get close to him, lest he irritated the queen mother and Dou Wu. Unlike the party members, their power came from the favor of the emperor.
If the emperor can suppress the general trend, then they can also stretch out their arms to fight with the party members.
However, if it were Liu Hong's situation, they would show extreme flattery to the party members and would not give the party members any handle. A gentleman like Dou Wu would not be able to deal with these people directly if he did not have a handle at hand.
The eunuchs take action, so for the time being, there is no conflict between Liu Hong and these eunuchs. On the contrary, if Liu Hong can be allowed to occupy power, they will benefit!
Before, the little fat man couldn't figure out why these eunuchs refused to contact him. Later he understood that it was because he was afraid of irritating the Queen Mother Dou Wu. If Dou Wu wanted to directly execute them in the name of bewitching the new monarch, they would not do it at all.
No matter how powerful he is to defend himself, the little fat man wants to find Hou Lan to find out the news.
Song Dian was not stupid, otherwise he would not have been sent by Hou Lan to contact the new king. He also understood what the little fat man meant. Song Dian looked at the fat emperor with some curiosity. They originally thought that the emperor was still young.
Even if they come into contact rashly, it will be of no use. Instead, Dou Wu will find an excuse. Wang and Cao want to get closer to the party members, so the hot task of guarding the emperor is directly left to Hou Lan.
Hou Lan didn't say it, but he also had thoughts in his heart. No matter what happens next, the emperor's position has been established. Being able to send Xiao Huangmen to contact the emperor is a good opportunity for him. He is already old.
If it gets too big, this position won't last for a few more years. If these small yellow gates can leave an impression in the emperor's heart, when the emperor officially takes power in the future, these small yellow gates can also take care of him.
However, they did not expect that this new king was very loved by the party members and was very close to the party members. Moreover, he was very smart at a young age and had been under house arrest for so long. Even his mother, Dong, could not sit still and almost went crazy.
, the emperor, at such an active age, was able to talk to these little yellow gatekeepers calmly.
Song Dian looked at the smiling and gentle little fat man in front of him, but felt that he was unfathomable. He suddenly felt that whether it was Hou Lan, Wang Fu, Cao Jie, or Queen Mother Dou Wu, they all underestimated this man.
The emperor underestimated him because of his age. Song Dian looked hesitant and struggled in his heart. The little fat man looked at him and asked worriedly: "Are you okay? Do you want me to call the imperial doctor for you?"
"
Song Dian suddenly stood up and bowed down. The little fat man's eyes were full of joy, but he looked dazed. He supported him slightly and asked, "Song Huangmen, what does this mean?" Song Dian looked at it.
Outside the house, he whispered: "I don't dare to deceive the country. Hou Lan sent his slaves to contact the country. Moreover, he wanted to transcribe and submit the daily speech of the country."
"oh?"
"Why would he do this?"
"He didn't dare to come to contact the country in person, so he wanted to understand the country through me, and he also wanted to use us to gain the country's trust..."
"I see."
The little fat man nodded and asked somewhat ignorantly: "Why doesn't Hou Zhongchang dare not touch me? Could it be that the Queen Mother and the general don't want others to touch me?" Looking at the confused expression of the little fat man, Song Dian was also stunned.
, could he not understand such a simple question? He had seen this man talk eloquently in front of hundreds of officials, and he had also seen him deliberately pretending to be ill to test the Queen Mother.
How could such a smart and intelligent person ask himself such a stupid question?
Song Dian also understood that the emperor did not trust him and was worried that he was from Dou Wu's side and came to inquire about the emperor's thoughts. Song Dian simply gritted his teeth and said: "The Queen Mother is the daughter of General Dou. If the two of them join forces,
, not weak and the disaster of Liang and Ji in the past..." Before Song Dian could finish speaking, the little fat man interrupted him directly, and the little fat man pulled his sleeve and held his hand.
Those who could say such words in the palace must not be from the Queen Mother or Dou Wu's side.
People in this era are not as dark-hearted and unscrupulous in their speech as people in later generations.
The little fat man looked at Song Dian and said very kindly: "Deyuan doesn't know something. I must be careful with my words when I am in the palace. The Queen Mother loves me too much and does not want to make me work hard, so she lives in this courtyard. General Dou is more
He is the pillar of the country. The day he first came, he reminded me that he will help me in everything..." He said these words with a smile, but the meaning in his words was earth-shattering.
"It's just that I wonder why the palace ministers, except Hou Lan, are unwilling to contact me? Could it be that they have given up completely?" The little fat man asked again with a smile.
"In the country, Hou Lan is too old and does things intentionally but without courage. As for Wang and Cao, they feel that the country is young and even if they support it, they are unable to fight against the party members. Therefore, they keep contacting the party members in an attempt to join them.
...." The young eunuch couldn't help but shook his head in disdain and said: "It's just that those people think they are noble, so how can they tolerate them? They just do useless things and don't know it."
The little fat man nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly laughed when he looked at the little Huangmen in front of him, the only one loyal to him in Luoyang.
"I was young and ignorant. I was in the palace, and I was always worried. I was afraid that I would not be able to serve my ancestors in the temple and rule the world like my ancestors did. Fortunately, I got your help, so that I no longer live in panic. When I am strong, you will be your companion.
Be on my side!"
"Country! I am willing to go through fire for the country, no matter what!"
"Good, good, I get your help, just like Taizu got Zhang Liang."
If Xing Ziang were here, he would definitely be angry with me to no end, alas...
