After the queen came to the throne, I was forced to be nine thousand years old

Chapter 79 The opportunity to touch the power
The Baihua Palace, where Princess Changyi lives, is located to the southwest of the palace.

Baihuadian was named by Princess Changyi herself, Zuo Daoqi felt a little childish.

"Grandfather Zuo is here, come and sit down."

Princess Changyi warmly invited Zuo Daoqi, and asked the little court lady who copied the books for him to make tea for Zuo Daoqi, and her big eyes with waves looked at Zuo Daoqi flickeringly.

The maid served the tea, and a strong floral fragrance diffused with the tea mist, filling the whole room with an incomparably fresh floral fragrance.

Just the taste is so alluring.

The tea mist in the cup is also different from ordinary tea mist. For the princess's tea, the tea mist is lingering and constantly changing in the air, finally outlining a scene of a hundred flowers blooming.

They are all white tea scent, but Zuo Daoqi can clearly see what kind of flower each one is.

Until Zuo Daoqi took a sip of tea, the taste of tea lingered around his teeth, like flowers growing in his mouth, and there was the faint buzzing of bees' wings.

The end of this tea is to attract bees and butterflies.

Some warm air rises from the lower abdomen and merges with the ubiquitous Qi and blood in the body.

Zuo Daoqi let out a low moan, and couldn't help but praise, "Good tea! The princess is really good tea!"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he stopped suddenly, not because he felt that what he said was abrupt, but because the scent of flowers in his mouth naturally dissipated after he opened his mouth, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of regret in his heart.

Princess Changyi looked at him, "Is it delicious? This Hundred Flowers Tea is a tribute from the Hundred Flowers Palace. Eunuch likes it. I will bring some back to Eunuch later."

Is there such a good thing?

This must be brought back to the imperial concubine to taste.

Zuo Dodge nodded unceremoniously, cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

Princess Changyi was a little dazed, is this the end?Do you think I gave you tea for nothing?
Just as he was about to talk about tea, he saw the smile in Zuo Dodge's eyes, got up instantly, and slapped the table.

"Bold!"

"You dog slave, you can take it if you give it to you. Do you still have me as a princess in your eyes?"

This showman...

Zuo Daoqi stood up with a look of panic, cupped his fists and said, "Then I don't know what to do to get the tea from the princess?"

Princess Changyi snorted coldly, "I have a question, and I want to test you."

Zuo Daoqi was a little happy watching the role-playing of Princess Changyi, and wanted to persuade him, you are not suitable for such a domineering president.

"Princess, please tell me, I will know everything."

Princess Changyi proudly raised her head, trying her best to appear domineering.

But her face is there, no matter how you look at it, it will not make people afraid.

"Yesterday after you left, a few blind Confucian scholars said that I was too good-looking, so there was no snow in the north, and they asked me to go to Chan Mountain to worship the heavens. How should I deal with them?"

After hearing this, Zuo Dodge looked pensive.

It seems that I guessed right, Emperor Yuanji really went there yesterday, and was forced into the palace in front of so many people, it really is a bit useless.

Zuo Dodge naturally filtered out the useless and fictitious information in Princess Changyi's words.He thought a lot, and asked, "Did the princess show the saint yesterday's poem?"

"Well, Father even praised that poem."

Princess Changyi was still young, and when asked by the original owner, she blushed somewhat, unlike Zuo Daoqi, who copied other people's poems and used other people's names. I wrote it, so don't talk nonsense."

Zuo Daoqi couldn’t complain, what’s the difference between your approach and that Sun Wangzu, who gave him some money back, you want to be a white wolf with empty hands?

However, unlike Sun Wangzu, this was what he promised Princess Changyi before, and strictly speaking, it was also part of the deal.

Zuo Daoqi didn't care about the right to name a poem, he didn't ask for it, but the poem came into the emperor's sight and broke his original plan.

Everyone in the harem knew how much Emperor Yuanji loved Ji Lingrong, the Princess of Changyi, and he would definitely be extra vigilant against those who appeared around the princess.

At this time, he may have inevitably entered the emperor's sight.

In that case... Zuo Dodge nodded, "Princess, don't worry."

"Then tell me, what should I do?" Princess Changyi sat on a high place, looking at Zuo Dodge expectantly.

This question is actually very simple. It is nothing more than the fact that Confucianism is too powerful, resulting in no other voices in the court.

The ancient Chinese dynasties have been doing one thing, and that is to consolidate the centralization of power, to be precise, to guarantee the rights of the emperor.

Obviously, what Da Jin did was good, but not good enough.

It did well because the Dajin royal family was very stable. Even though Emperor Yuanji was obsessed with opera in the past few years and rarely went to court, Dajin did not cause too much trouble.

The bad thing is that the Confucian family dominates.

He pondered for a moment, and then said, "If you offend the princess, just kill her."

Princess Changyi's eyes widened instantly, "Kill...Kill?"

"No, this group of people has a lot of names. Fame is not only the foundation of their cultivation, but they are also proud of having fame after death. Killing them, wouldn't it make them gain their fame for nothing, and this palace will also bear the infamy?"

Zuo Dodge said,
"No one is not afraid of death. These Confucian scholars who call themselves political officials are the last ones who want to die in vain."

"Bewitching people with gossip, bewitching saints in the palace, and slandering princesses are all serious crimes."

He paused, looking into the princess' eyes.

"Of course the princess can't do it herself. What those Confucian scholars say, the princess will let them go, but once they dare to go to the gate of the palace and say, the princess just needs to beg the saint to confer a eunuch as the palace eunuch, and let the eunuch do it. If someone is killed, it’s better to beat him up, I think such things will be much less.”

After all, Princess Changyi is a scholar. Hearing Zuo Daoqi's words, she pondered for a moment. It's not that she didn't think of this method. She killed people and found a scapegoat.

"Your method only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. Is there a better way?"

Zuo Daoqi looked at the princess with a pensive look on his face, and said slowly, "Dare to ask the princess, what do you think of the court?"

Princess Changyi blinked her eyes, and said with some hesitation, "It's okay..."

"I don't dare to talk about national policy, but today the princess asked me, so I will talk about it casually."

Zuo Dodge talked eloquently.

"Nowadays in the court, the Confucian family is dominant, lacking the power to check and balance, and the royal family lacks the power to frighten all officials!"

"Although our Dajin army is strong, we have less contact with officials on weekdays, and they will inevitably lose their awe."

"Even though the Demon Slaying Mansion is strong, the Confucianism is not evil after all. Under normal circumstances, the Demon Slaying Mansion can't control them."

"So, what the royal family needs is an organization that only obeys the royal family's orders and can intimidate all officials."

A light appeared in Princess Changyi's eyes, and she urged, "Continue talking."

Seeing the princess taking the bait, Zuo Daoqi slowly uttered his true thoughts, "Why don't you use the master eunuchs of the clan mansion as your background, and many eunuchs in the imperial palace use their minions to establish an institution that only belongs to saints and is only loyal to the royal family!"

"Eunuchs and eunuchs have no roots and no prosperity. They rely on the nobles in the palace. Of course, they are loyal. When the eunuchs in the palace grow up, they will slowly remove the masters of the clan's mansion and send them to live in their old age. "

Princess Changyi's face became excited, and she slapped the table excitedly, "Eunuch Zuo is really smart, he is worthy of being the eunuch valued by this palace."

Zuo Dodge smiled sarcastically.

He just planted a seed in the heart of Princess Changyi, a seed of reusing eunuchs.

When the time is right, maybe he doesn't need to rely on Ji Lingshu, and he can become a powerful person in this palace, or even in the whole Jin Dynasty.
