Rebirth in another world as a fake eunuch

Chapter 4

As the saying goes, people move to live, and trees move to die. If you have a relationship, you can do things easily.

So when the emperor was still in the early court the next day, Concubine Yin met her own sister in her palace.

This is Wang Kuo's idea to Concubine Yin, meaning to try to hide the relationship between the two, not for fear of being discovered, but for the sake of not attracting attention.

You have to know that a person who is promoted by a concubine can be regarded as directly labeling this person as a concubine, and people will guard against you when you think about doing anything. On the contrary, people with "clean background" will develop better, the most important thing It will still gain the trust of the emperor.

So when Concubine Yin's younger sister Yin Qingqing left the palace, she quickly found their father Wei Guogong, Yin Zhigang, and Wei Guogong went out to find another person. They went around in a big circle, and they didn't know what happened. How many hands did it take before suddenly an order came into the palace, an order related to Wang Kuo.

It is worth mentioning that the reason why Wei Guogong and others are willing to contribute is that they all have one idea, that is, they think that Concubine Yin is going to develop power in the palace, so those of them who are outside the palace naturally help as much as they can. helped.

It is said that there are people who are easy to handle. It is not until today that Wang Kuo truly understands the meaning of this sentence.

Only three days later, Wang Kuo suddenly came to the Huanyi Bureau with a transfer order, and Wang Kuo was so inexplicably transferred to the Imperial Supervisor to serve as Dian Bo, a junior official of the sixth rank.

Regardless of the size of the official position, it is a kind of progress after all, so Wang Kuo was very satisfied and very happy. He packed his luggage that day and went to the imperial prison to take up his post immediately.

The imperial prison, as explained, means the place where the royal supplies are. Simply put, it is the yamen responsible for purchasing various daily necessities for the royal family and delivering daily necessities to the palaces.

Because this yamen has enough oil and water, it can also go out to buy from time to time, so it has always been the lifelong pursuit of many eunuchs, but unexpectedly it fulfilled Wang Kuo in this way.

The Tianming Dynasty is not in the history. To be precise, it should be a different world, or a world of parallel space. In short, everything here is different from the history that Wang Kuo knows.

But coincidentally, although the Tianming Dynasty is different from his known history, it also has many similarities with China's Great Ming Dynasty.

For example, in some palaces in the imperial palace, for example, these eunuchs do not have a younger brother, and for example, the positions of these eunuchs, etc.

Such as the 24 yamen in the Ming Dynasty, Xili Supervisor, Yuyong Supervisor, Neiguan Supervisor, Yuma Supervisor, Sishe Supervisor, Shangbao Supervisor, Jingong Supervisor, Shangshan Supervisor, Shangyi Supervisor, Yinshou Supervisor, Zhidian Supervisor, and Duzhi Supervisor , a total of twelve prisons.There are four divisions: Xixin Division, Baochao Division, Bell and Drum Division, and Huntang Division.Eight Bureaus: Military Battle Bureau, Scarf and Hat Bureau, Needle Work Bureau, Inner Weaving and Dyeing Bureau, Wine and Vinegar Noodle Bureau, Siyuan Bureau, Silver Work Bureau, and Clothes Bureau.

Moreover, the Tianming Dynasty is the same as the Ming Dynasty, they both have a famous cabinet, and they also emphasize civility over military affairs, and use civility to dominate military affairs, etc.

Of course, there is no notorious Jinyiwei here, let alone the East Factory and the West Factory. Thinking of this, Wang Kuo's eyes sparkled, and his feet unconsciously accelerated.

"Unexpectedly, there are some smart people in the Yin family who know to arrange me in the imperial prison, not in the Xili prison."

Wang Kuo was very satisfied with the arrangement of the Yin family. It can be said that the 24 yamen of the Tianming Dynasty were the same as those of the Ming Dynasty. The approval of the Supervisor of Rites was the closest to the center of power, and it was even called a small cabinet.

But often the more such a place is, the more dangerous it is. Now that he is not on a firm foothold, it is definitely not a good thing to be rashly assigned to the Xili Prison. On the contrary, a yamen like the Imperial Prison with more freedom of entry and exit is more suitable for him. After all, he does not want to When a bird is being reared, let alone there is enough oil and water in it?
"Hey, it's just how weird this world is."

After more than half a year of life, Wang Kuo already has a general understanding of the Tianming Dynasty. If you say that the Tianming Dynasty is like the previous Ming Dynasty, but it is a bit like the Tang and Song Dynasties in terms of customs. According to statistics, the history is less than 2000 years. .

In the nearly 2000-year history, the land of the Central Plains has gone through six dynasties. Until now, it has been passed down to the Tianming Dynasty, and it is not long before the world is peaceful.

The first emperor of the Tianming Dynasty was Zhu Tianyun, the great ancestor of Tianming who expanded the territory and conquered the north and south.

Zhu Tianyun joined the army at the age of 17. At the age of 19, he accumulated meritorious service and became a general. At the age of 20, he was already invincible. In eight months of the year, not only regained all the lost land of the previous dynasty, but also expanded the territory for thousands of miles, and became emperor in the hearts of the people.

Zhu Tianyun was 39 years old after ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor. In his prime, he was open-minded and vigorously developed people's livelihood. During his 12 years in power, he finally allowed the people to live and work in peace and contentment, and the population began to increase gradually.

After Tianming's Taizu passed away, the current emperor, Zhu Yu, ascended the throne. Zhu Yu began to ascend the throne at the age of 28, and has been on the throne for 17 years.

Since he was a prince, he has been taught by the great Confucianism of the time, and he has been influenced by his ears and eyes. Therefore, since he ascended the throne, he has vigorously promoted the strategy of governing the country according to the law, and using the law to stabilize the country. Since the implementation of his benevolent policy strategy, the hearts of the people have really begun to unite , and the people live and work more in peace and contentment.

But Wang Kuo, an outsider, saw something abnormal in it.

This anomaly may seem inconspicuous, but Wang Kuo has seen some familiar historical trends, and this anomaly stems from three events that happened in the past three months.

One morning two months ago, a group of ministers went up to play, claiming that the crown prince is the foundation of a country, and a country without a crown prince would be unstable, and asked the current emperor to appoint a crown prince.

Whether this matter is big or small, in short, the emperor still does not want to set up the establishment, or he still has his own arrangements. After the two ministers were about to crash into the main hall, they had no choice but to announce that the eldest prince wished the school level to be the prince.

The second thing is that the current emperor may be depressed by these ministers, or he suddenly wants to show off his glory. In short, he suddenly announced that he would go hunting like Taizu Chunwei.

But as soon as the decree of the front foot came out, a group of scholars and a group of civil servants chased it back, claiming that the emperor is the emperor today, and he can't stand under the dangerous wall. This matter was finally over.

The third thing is interesting. Kang Ping, the left servant of the household department, was imprisoned for corruption. It stands to reason that corruption was a major crime in exile in the Tianming Dynasty. What's more, there are indeed many corrupt people in Kang Ping, nearly a hundred people who have been corrupt. Ten thousand taels of silver.

But it was just such a matter, amidst the solidarity of a group of ministers, Zhu Xi, the emperor, could only wave his hand, and a dismissal came to settle it.

"Hehe, it would be a lie to say that the emperor is not angry now, and I don't know whether these ministers are really smart or fake."

Wang Kuo could only helplessly shake his head and sigh at the actions of those ministers.

Everything should be done in moderation, and everything should be done at a certain level, so that you can be good, I am good, and everyone is good.

But the current group of ministers obviously crossed this red line.

What is the emperor most concerned about?They are not afraid of their son's unfilial piety, their daughter-in-law's cheating, and their ministers' disobedience, but they are most afraid of the instability of power in their hands.

Or to be precise, the former are not as important as the rights in their hands.

So when an emperor feels that his imperial power is unstable, they will do everything possible to consolidate their power, whether it is suppression, division, etc., they will do everything they can.

"This father-in-law, the youngest is Wang Kuo, who was ordered to come to the imperial prison to take up his post."

At the gate of the imperial prison, Wang Kuo smiled and handed the order in his hand to one of the guards.

"Ah."

The eunuch guarding the gate is a young man in his 20s. After seeing Wang Kuo's young face, he couldn't help showing a hint of arrogance on his face. He took the order and saw it, his heart trembled immediately, and he quickly knelt down on the ground. He returned the transfer order with both hands and said: "It turns out that it is Master Dian Bo, who is too young to see Mount Tai. You can just go in and turn left and go straight, sir."

"Hehe, don't be afraid, we will be a family in the future, so thank you brother." Patting the eunuch on the shoulder, Wang Kuo stepped into the gate of the imperial prison with a smile.

According to the eunuch's words, Wang Kuo soon came to a room with a eunuch's room hanging on it.

The imperial supervisor, one of the twelve supervisors, has eunuchs (official positions, four-rank officials) above and below, there are supervisors inside and outside, Dianbo, Zhangsi, writing, and supervisors.In charge of the construction of screens, beds and other wooden utensils used for palace relocation, as well as play utensils such as red sandalwood, ivory, ebony, and snails.

"Young Wang Kuo begs to see you."

Outside the door of the eunuch's room, Wang Kuo ignored the eyes of other eunuchs and maids looking at him, and directly prostrated himself on the ground respectfully, kowtowed three times towards the door.

squeak……

After three knocks, the door finally slowly opened from the inside, and at the same time, a voice came from inside.

"So it's the new Dian Bo, come in quickly."

"Yes, thank you sir." Wang Kuo didn't stand up in a hurry when he heard the words, but kowtowed respectfully, then stood up and walked in.

As soon as he walked into the room, Wang Kuo's first reaction was eerie. There were only three or four candles lit in the empty room, and there was an old eunuch sitting on the main seat, just like three trials in front of him. He stared at himself with a gloomy face.

And under him were two eunuchs of unknown age. According to their positions, Wang Kuo guessed that they should be eunuchs inside and outside.

"The two in front of you are Eunuch Sun, the Inspector Prime Minister, and Eunuch Du, Eunuch Du, the Outer Inspector Prime Minister. Now they each lack a Dian Bo under their command. Let's see where you plan to take up the post?"

It was the old eunuch who spoke, and Wang Kuo did not dare to underestimate the boss of the imperial eunuch.

No one who can live to old age in the palace is easy, so holding the principle of being a man with his tail between his legs, Wang Kuo replied respectfully without even thinking about it!
"Returning to the adults, the villain will obey the adults' arrangements in everything."

"Hehe, so speaking of it, you are a good baby." The old eunuch grinned, showing two piercing teeth, and then said indifferently: "In this case, you should step back first and go to the hospital tomorrow. Supervisor reports."

"Yes, I obey." Wang Kuo bowed respectfully, and hurriedly left the room.

"Well, can you two see where he came from?"
