Volume 1 Xiling Evil Young Chapter 56 The Situation of the Eunuch

Your Majesty often talks about Hou Shigui?

Hearing this, Xie Jing's hesitation and worry disappeared in an instant.

No matter how deep the background of Hou Puru offended that big person, can he still have a deep background of His Majesty?

When even put a straight face on Zhang Jinyan:

"What did the county lieutenant say? The Hou Mansion is a law-abiding and good citizen, a model of the Linben, how can you just find a reason to get rid of it?

In such disregard for the law and discipline, I hope that the county lieutenant will not mention it again in the future, otherwise he will blame the county for not saving face! ”

The county lieutenant heard that Hou Shigui had become the person often mentioned on His Majesty's lips, and he didn't dare to think about anything else, so he had to hide the resentment in his heart, and nodded his head again and again.

Even the surrounding squires, seeing that the foreign man did not come to the Hou Mansion, the thoughts that had been silent because of the death of the Zhang family patriarch came alive again.

Who knew that the eunuch's words brought everyone's lively minds to the bottom again.

Even His Majesty often mentions Hou Shigui, how can he fight against this?

There are also many clever people who have said to the servants beside them:

"After today, send a gift to the Hou Mansion, and say that my government is willing to rent the land, as long as it ...... As long as the conditions are the same as those of the Tang family, he can rent as much as he wants. ”

These squires are smart, and now the Hou Mansion is taking the lead in reducing the rent, if they don't reduce it, the small households will definitely run to the Hou Mansion.

At that time, the acres of land were uncultivated, and there was no harvest at all.

But if it is rented to the Hou Mansion, you can also get ninety percent according to last year's harvest, and you don't even need to go to the small households yourself, the Hou Mansion has its own small households to cultivate for itself.

Rather than reducing rent, it is better to allocate land rent to the Hou Mansion.

In any case, at least it is better than the Zhang family being bought by the Hou Mansion at a low price for thousands of acres of fertile land.

As for the bystanders, they don't have that much to think about at all.

Just listening to the eunuch's words and often mentioning Hou Shigui today, I feel that this is already a great honor and power.

can make the emperor mention it every day, how much favor should Hou Shigui get?

Just when everyone was shocked, Zheng Yang also began to read out His Majesty's reward.

Hou Shigui's mother, Hou Shi, has a good godson, is virtuous and touching, and is named the eight-grade lady.

As for Hou Shigui, after sprinkling a lot of words of encouragement, it was dozens of catties of pepper spices and other Western Regions tributes, as well as a pair of glow-in-the-dark cups.

As for the money, it is not a tael!!

Could it be that he was greedy by this eunuch?

After Zheng Yang read out the reward, it can be said that except for Hou Shigui, everyone in the Hou Mansion is happy.

led the crowd to disperse, Zheng Yang stood alone in place, and even the two guards who escorted him were not happy to take care of him.

However, Hou Shigui stepped forward with a smile and was polite to Zheng Yang before welcoming him into the mansion.

The two of them had just sat down, and Hou Shigui asked without words:

"Zheng Neijian, how is Wang Neijian lately?"

"Entrusted to the prince of the Hou, the king's inner eunuch has now been promoted and is on an errand by His Majesty's side."

"Thanks to me?"

Hou Shigui's face was puzzled, and when Zheng Yang saw him like this, he told His Majesty that he liked the fragrance on the king's inner eunuch.

When it came, he said a little embarrassedly:

"I'm ashamed to say that before I left, many people in the palace came to look for me and wanted to ask my son for a bottle of perfume.

Even the king's inner eunuch asked me to ask, is there any extra perfume? ”

It turned out that he asked me, and I said that he could help himself speak in front of everyone outside the palace, and that His Majesty often mentioned himself.

The perfume was the most rudimentary and crude perfume, but Hou Shigui made it in order to cope with the smell of the toilet.

The material is cheap, the process is simple, and the quantity is large.

These inner supervisors love this perfume so much, it's good to use it as a favor:

"Since the internal supervisors like it, I have hundreds of bottles prepared here, and when the internal prisoner Zheng leaves, I will bring them with me."

Hundred...... A hundred bottles?

Hearing this, Zheng Yang was not overjoyed, and shook his hand again and again:

"This ...... Hou Gongzi ...... I'm afraid we don't have so much silver on our family......"

Are they still ready to pay for it??

Hou Shigui was even more shocked than Zheng Yang, and then, he Fan Buddha saw a financial road leading to gold and silver mountains unfolding to him.

The eunuchs in the palace, at least thousands, this perfume is a consumable, if everyone uses it, this is an inexhaustible financial route!

In the future, if it is slightly improved, maybe those palace maids, even the concubines and young ladies of the family, will come to buy them.

At that point, the money will roll in!

Thinking of this, Hou Shigui pretended to be heroic and waved his hand:

"My friendship with the king's eunuch, what kind of money do you talk about?!

Although these 100 bottles of perfume are rare and valuable, they are not as rare as my friendship with the king's inner eunuch!

Zheng Neijian just take it! ”

In the end, for fear that this Zheng Neijian would really be cheeky enough to accept it as a common thing, Hou Shigui added:

"If you want it in the future, it's not too late to talk about money!"

Give...... Sent?

100 bottles of perfume worth a lot of money were given away like this?!

When Zheng Yang was dumbfounded, Hou Shigui had already exchanged for Lu Xing'an:

"Knock on the rope, go and get the last hundred bottles of perfume in the house."

The last 100 bottles?

There are thousands of bottles of perfume piled up in the warehouse, and they are all about to rot, how can Childe say that they are the last hundred bottles?

There were outsiders, and Lu Xingan was not good at asking, so he turned around and left.

Zheng Yang was so shocked that he got up and shouted:

"By all means, there are only 100 bottles left in the house, how can the son give them all to our family?"

He was going to go out and chase Lu Xing'an.

Who knew that Hou Shigui stopped him:

"Since Wang Neijian is a friend of Hou, he has a little finance, so naturally he shouldn't worry too much! Zheng Neijian accepted it, don't say more! ”

Seeing Hou Shigui so resolute, Zheng Yang's heart was moved, his eyes were full of tears, and he nodded heavily:

"The grace of the child, the crippled person in our family's palace, thank you here!"

After speaking, it is a deep bow.

After sending Zheng Yang to the guest room to rest, Hou Shigui glanced at a pair of luminous cups and dozens of catties of spices in front of him, and looked helpless.

Because it was a royal gift, he couldn't take it out and sell it, so he could only use it as an ornament.

This reward is really very chicken, and he was about to go out, but he saw a white-bearded old man standing in front of his house with his hands behind his back and blowing his beard with his eyes glaring:

"Teacher, don't you have to go to class today?"

Even though Liu Xuan was full of anger, after seeing the apprentice, his anger still disappeared a lot.

With a long sigh, he said:

"Changping, the official sea is very deep, if you want to be a leader in the future, you must not interact with eunuchs again."

Can't interact with eunuchs? Is it His Majesty's side......

Liu Xuan was surprised when he saw Hou Shigui's face, obviously knowing what this student was thinking:

"It's rare to meet an enlightened monarch today, as long as you can show your ambitions, you won't care about these side details, it's just that the civil and military officials are ......"

After Liu Xuan's telling, Hou Shigui understood that the officialdom in this world is not at all the same as what he watches on TV dramas.

Eunuchs in this world are too unethical.

No wonder he only gave a few hundred taels of silver, so Wang Zhen and Zheng Yang looked grateful.

Emperor Taizu, the founding emperor of Great Chu, was afraid of repeating the disaster of Zhao Gao, the ten permanent servants, and degraded the power of the eunuchs again and again.

There was even a department dedicated to supervising eunuchs.

The civil and military officials also looked down on these eunuchs from the inside out, and even the ministers who were close to these eunuchs had to be suppressed and excluded.

Call it: Reading the books of the sages in vain, not worthy of being a human being.
