Recreating the prosperous Tang begins with summoning players

Chapter 520 Gao Lishi

Now Mu Rong finally knew who the big man in front of him was.

At the same time, he was conferred the title of Grand General of Shenwu, Kaifu Yitong Sansi, and eunuch of Duke Qi. There is only one in the current Tang court, and that is the old eunuch in front of him, Gao Lishi.

Mu Rong wanted to scold her mother angrily.

Eunuch Zhou, you have no roots, you actually deceive yourself like this!
This little thing on his body has been filial to him, and this old thing is cheating himself.

What about the saying "you can't make a mistake as a eunuch"?
If it was ten years ago, if Gao Lishi could be worshiped as a godfather, then the eunuchs in the entire Daming Palace would have lined up, as long as they could recognize this godfather, they would be able to rise to the top.

But now that he recognizes Gao Lishi as his godfather, isn't that why he joined the national army in [-]?

You eunuch Zhou is looking for death, don't drag me along!

Mu Rong shouted in his heart, why is he so miserable!
The old man in front of him raised his head, he was wearing a coarse cloth clothes of ordinary people, the years had already left deep marks on his face.

No one would have thought that the old man in front of him turned out to be Gao Lishi, a power official who had influenced the Tang Dynasty for decades.

Gao Lishi was copying the copybook at the desk. After he finished writing, he looked at the words he had written, crumpled them up and said:

"The characters of the Ministry of Yan Li are really difficult to learn."

Gao Lishi raised his head, and said to Eunuch Zhou: "Biyi, you are still loyal to the saint. I heard you said that this kid is smart and smart. He doesn't look around after entering the study. He is a capable person."

The saint Gao Lishi mentioned was naturally the emperor Li Longji.

Eunuch Zhou knelt on the ground and pulled Mu Rong to kneel down too.

Eunuch Zhou cried and said: "Great general! Now Li Fuguo is in power in the palace, and all the old people in the prison temples have been killed and demoted by him for reasons. There are not many old people in the palace anymore!"

Now Mu Rong understood that the eunuch this week was probably the eunuch under Gao Lishi's command.

Gao Lishi looked at Mu Rong and asked, "Come here, are you literate?"

Mu Rong cursed Gao Lishi in his heart, but a skinny camel was bigger than a horse, so it was easy for Gao Lishi to strangle himself, a powerless little eunuch.

If he showed an uncooperative attitude, Gao Lishi would definitely kill him directly.

He didn't believe that the old man in front of him was as kind as he looked. He had to know that although Gao Lishi had the best reputation among the eunuchs, how could he be a soft-hearted person who could ascend to the highest position of power.

Mu Rong immediately said: "General, the young one can write."

Gao Lishi handed over the pen, and Mu Rong picked up the pen and began to write on the rice paper.

In reality, Mu Rong signed up for a distance course of brush calligraphy, but for those who are used to typing, it will take a long time to pick up the brush again.

Mu Rong's calligraphy is unsightly, it's barely readable.

But this is also in line with his status as a little eunuch.

Gao Lishi saw that although his handwriting was not good-looking, he could write quite fluently, obviously he could write.

Then Gao Lishi took out another book, asked Mu Rong to read a few sentences, and then said:

"good very good!"

Gao Lishi said to Eunuch Zhou: "You arranged for him to work in Shangshujian, did you do it carefully?"

Eunuch Zhou immediately said: "I will tell the general that I am looking for a private relationship from the old year. It is also because the Shangshujian is really short of manpower. This kid can write and count, so he was selected."

Gao Lishi nodded in satisfaction and said:

"I beg you to be prudent in your work, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you old people in the palace now."

After saying this, Gao Lishi actually shed two tears.

Acting school ah!

Mu Rong looked down at Gao Lishi's performance, and cursed secretly in his heart.

It's normal for you remnants of the emperor to have a hard time!You have been so beautiful for so many years!

I'm an innocent little eunuch, why drag me into this muddy water!
Mu Rong stood there cautiously, not daring to reveal his inner thoughts.

Seeing Gao Lishi weeping, Eunuch Zhou knelt on the ground and began to cry again.

After the two finished their performance, Gao Lishi said:

"Although the miscellaneous family has left Daming Palace, there are still some chess pieces in the palace."

"It's just that now that the new emperor is in power, the chess pieces of the miscellaneous family can't move around."

"You little Muzi are innocent, and Eunuch Zhou was very low-key in the Shang Dynasty. You are the best candidates for this big event."

Do big things?
Mu Rong was a little excited, could it be a mission?
That's right, Gao Lishi is an important historical figure in the Tang Dynasty, so it's normal for him to send missions, right?
But as long as you think about it for a while, you know that this task must be very dangerous.

But Mu Rong thought about it, wealth and wealth are in danger, and he can turn a bicycle into a motorcycle with a gamble.

I have already entered the palace, there is nothing else I can't do.

"General, little Muzi is willing to serve you!"

Seeing Mu Rong being so upbeat, Gao Lishi happily said to Eunuch Zhou;
"When the emperor was in power, why didn't he see that you were a smart man? On the contrary, those who were in the limelight during the emperor's reign were all cleaned up by Li Fuguo."

Gao Lishi said to Mu Rong: "You kowtowed here today, you should recognize me as your godfather first."

Mu Rong hesitated for a moment, then immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Gao Lishi.

Gao Lishi helped him up and said: "Hao Erlang, what godfather wants you to do is related to godfather's old life, and even the emperor's life."

Mu Rong himself triggered an important task, but he just quietly listened to Gao Lishi say:
"I said earlier that the godfather still has some secrets in the Daming Palace. After you return to the palace this time, with the tokens of the miscellaneous family, let them push Xiao Muzi to become the official eunuch of the Shangshufang."

Miscellaneous servants-passing stories-the palace-hand prints-imperial, these are the major grades of eunuchs.

Eunuchs also have grades, but their influence in the harem depends not only on their grades, but also on what they do.

For example, Shangshujian, this is the key point.

Handy eunuchs like Mu Rong are responsible for taking care of the royal library and database, and are also responsible for maintaining the calligraphy and painting works collected by the royal family. They are the lowest level of handyman.

For example, Mu Rong's position is "Chongwenguan Cleaning", as the name suggests, he is responsible for the sanitation of Chongwenguan, the royal library.

Mu Rong was taken aback. The Shangshujian was the most important institution in the inner court. As a eunuch serving as a eunuch in the Shangshufang, he was in charge of delivering the emperor's documents.

Every day, the Zhengshitang and the Six Departments will have a lot of memorials to be sent to the emperor's imperial case. Jiedu envoys from all over the country and the prefectural governor level also have the right to submit memorials to the emperor.

After these memorials have been discussed by the prime ministers in the political affairs hall, they will be sent to the emperor for final decision.

The Shangshujian is superior to other institutions in the inner court, because to be a eunuch in the Shangshufang, you have to hang around in front of the emperor with memorials every day.

From ancient times to the present, the position of being able to serve in the leadership's saddle has been the most sought-after.

Dangling in front of the emperor every day, if he can be remembered by the emperor, he may become prosperous at any time.

You must know that eunuchs are the emperor's domestic slaves. Even if the emperor wants to promote an official in the foreign court, he will be subject to various difficulties such as official rules and officials' opposition.

But in the inner court, as long as it can be reused by the emperor, it can reach the sky at any time.

There are more than 200 handy eunuchs in the Shangshujian, but there are only [-] eunuchs for ministers.

But Mu Rong knew that there is no free pie in the world, so he raised his head and asked, "Godfather, what do you want your son to do?"

Gao Lishi looked at Mu Rong with satisfaction, this little eunuch did not get carried away with his promise to become a messenger eunuch, but asked the price he had to pay in the first sentence.

Sure enough, it is a material that can be made!
Gao Lishi looked at Mu Rong with relief and said, "If you can ask this question, Godfather will be relieved."

Gao Lishi sighed and said: "The emperor has abdicated, but there are still people staring at the emperor. The hearts of people in this world are broken."

Seeing Gao Lishi sigh, Mu Rong scolded his mother even more in his heart, I didn't catch you who are popular and hot, and now you are down and dragged me to join the gang.

If it was an ordinary little eunuch, seeing Gao Lishi like this, he would probably kneel down to show his loyalty.

But for Mu Rong, who grew up watching Gongdouju and was used to routines, Gao Lishi's acting skills were not outstanding.

In other words, he didn't act seriously in front of the little eunuch Mu Rong.

After shedding two tears, Gao Lishi said to Mu Rong: "Godfather, as long as you pay attention to the memorials you have handled, find out the parts that are not good for the emperor, write them down, and then tell your master every once in a while."

Mu Rong said in a panic: "Godfather, you have been with the emperor for many years, and it is a capital offense for an eunuch to read the memorials without permission!"

"And there are so many memorials, what will Xiao Muzi think of them!"

Mu Rong was going to muddle through, but Gao Lishi didn't give him this chance.

I only heard Gao Lishi's tone turn cold and said: "Although the miscellaneous family lives in Xingqing Palace now, they still have some face in Daming Palace."

"Your journey into the palace has been smooth and smooth, young people should know how to be grateful."

After saying this, Gao Lishi took out a bottle and said:
"Godfather has redeemed the three treasures for you. As long as you do your best, godfather will not treat you badly."

Mu Rong understood that Gao Lishi was threatening him.

The Three Treasures are the things that have been castrated. Every eunuch, no matter what the reason is, wants to bury everything with him.

The eunuchs who are so prosperous will redeem their three treasures, otherwise they will have no face to meet their ancestors under Jiuquan.

But Gao Lishi used this to threaten Mu Rong, but it really didn't work at all.

As long as enough contribution points are exchanged for the resurrection book, even corpses can be resurrected, so what's the use of mere three treasures.

But Gao Lishi's previous sentence made Mu Rong put away his resistance. Although Gao Lishi lost power, it was still easy to kill himself, a young eunuch who had just entered the palace.

It seems that I can only agree first.

Mu Rong cursed viciously: "Two rootless old bastards, when the miscellaneous people are awesome, I will kill you! Feed your three treasures to the dogs!"
