Chapter 12: Between the Eunuchs
"Emperor, the inner factory has received news that Jinyiwei is investigating the relationship between Father-in-law Zhang and Yu Dayou!" Xu De didn't hide it, and hurriedly said: "It seems that it is the meaning of Zhangfu, You Qi met Lord Liu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard, today!" ”
When Zhu Yijun heard this, he was slightly stunned, and then returned to normal.
Zhu Yijun didn't guess this situation, this matter is not an ordinary thing, after all, this is also a big move. If Zhang Juzheng didn't suspect it, then there was a ghost, but Zhu Yijun didn't expect the inner factory to get the news so quickly.
What Zhu Yijun didn't know was that Xu De had been very attentive to the internal factory in recent years, and he really went all out to run it.
In the past, Daming did not have organizations such as the West Factory and the Inner Factory, and Xu De now takes the Inner Factory as the capital of his life. In Xu De's view, the inner factory is his own capital for further progress in the future.
Since Feng Bao's death, Xu De has not had a sense of security, and now although he has a slight sense of security, the competition between eunuchs is very fierce.
Although the eunuch Zhang Hong is usually not obvious, everyone knows that the eunuch Zhang Hong, the eunuch with the palm print, is definitely the first person in the palace. In the past few years, I have accompanied the Queen Mother to worship the Buddha, and I have the trust of the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Li's authority in the palace is absolutely unshakable, this is a world of etiquette, filial piety is ranked first, and the royal family is naturally the same.
The emperor serves the Queen Mother to the purest and most filial, which is also a thing that has gone viral outside, of course, the inner factory has not been less publicized for Zhu Yijun over the years. However, Xu De knew that the emperor had been in the province in the morning and dusk, and it had not been interrupted in the past few years.
In this way, Zhang Hong's status is naturally rising, and even Zhang Whale can't challenge it.
For Zhang Hong, Zhu Yijun is actually very grateful, in the past two years, he has always defended himself in front of the Queen Mother, and led his mother to run wild in believing in Buddhism, which has a lot of benefits for himself. Zhu Yijun, an interesting old eunuch, naturally values it very much, and he rarely refuses his suggestions.
In addition to Zhang Hong, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi, and Zhang Whale, who was ordered to supervise the Dongchang, was also a powerful figure among the eunuchs.
In addition to the eunuch Zhang Cheng, the eunuch of the ceremonial eunuch Bingbi who was ordered to supervise the imperial horse eunuch, these three people in the palace are definitely a mountain pressing on Xu De's head. If it weren't for the discord between Zhang Whale and Zhang Cheng, plus Zhang Hong's pressure on it, Xu De felt that he would have been cleaned up a long time ago.
Zhang Whale can't make a fuss, and because of Zhang Cheng, he is also afraid that Zhang Cheng will replace him at any time.
In terms of eunuchs of his own generation, Xu De knew that there was also a Chen Ju, and Chen Ju's business had been booming in the past two years, and it was naturally impossible for the inner factory not to know. The emperor is very optimistic about the military situation, and Xu De also knows it.
In the past two years, Xu De's hands have given hundreds of thousands of dollars to the War Bureau, which shows that the emperor attaches great importance to the War Bureau.
Xu De did not dare to relax at all, and played with his life to develop his own internal factory, which naturally had a remarkable effect. Jinyiwei's side had already been infiltrated, and this time Xu De noticed that Zhang Fu was investigating Yu Dayou and Zhang Whale, and he ran to report it as soon as possible.
Although Xu De wanted to see Zhang Whale unlucky, and he also wanted to see Zhang Whale and Zhang Juzheng fall out, he didn't dare.
If the emperor knew that he didn't report it, then he didn't have to think about his fate, and Xu De didn't know if there were any people from Dongchang around him. Thinking that there are people from the East Factory, Xu De feels that there must be people from the East Factory around him.
Not to mention anything else, many of the first batch of eunuchs who graduated from the Eunuch Academy are now on the side of the inner factory, and half of these people were found by themselves, and the other one was found by Zhang Whale.
Zhu Yijun naturally didn't know Xu De's thoughts, but the current situation was arranged by him, and he did it by mixing sand.
has been an emperor for a few years, Zhu Yijun has not learned anything else, but he is skeptical of everything, which is to learn thoroughly. Everyone in this world wants to fool the emperor, whether it is a civil official or a minister.
Because only the emperor who flickered can they get what they want.
As the emperor, you must not be fooled by them, otherwise you will definitely die a miserable death. Throughout history, whether it was an emperor who was fooled by ministers or an emperor who was fooled by eunuchs, there was no good end.
Cao Cao was suspicious, or the emperors of the past dynasties were suspicious, and it was difficult for them to trust anyone.
Glancing at Xu De, Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Very good, good work, it seems that the inner factory is developing well in your hands." ”
In fact, how could Zhu Yijun hand over all of such an organization as the inner factory to Xu De, once it gets out of control, it will become very troublesome. This has nothing to do with trust, mixing sand has always been something that the superior has to do.
Xu De was overjoyed when he heard this, he was really right to do this.
"Go back and continue to pay attention to this matter, and report any news in time!" Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "Your step-son is in his teens this year, right?" How did you read the book? Do you want to send it to Guozijian? ”
Xu De was stunned, he didn't expect Zhu Yijun to ask about this matter, his son was still given to him by his younger brother.
Although he is a concubine and has a child, but Xu De is really not a baby, naturally he is a little more spoiled, not to mention reading on weekdays, he doesn't even dare to do business, he has saved up a stinky problem, Xu De is thinking about marrying him a daughter-in-law recently.
For the son who Xu De succeeded, Zhu Yijun naturally knew it, and he also knew what kind of virtue that guy was.
is idle all day long, but it is not to the point of bullying men and women, it is still measured, but he is mixed in the casino green building all day long, and he has a bit of market habits, and I don't know if it is his father's genetic fault.
"Back to the emperor, dogs are not reading material!" Xu De said with a wry smile.
The son of a eunuch, even if it is material for studying, Xu De will not let him go this way. Of course, most of them are superficially high-minded, but they despise and despise people.
With his son's background, it's no wonder that he is not looked down upon.
"And what are you going to do with him?" Zhu Yijun said with a smile: "You're going to get married, right?" Grace a hundred households! Even if it is a reward I give, when it comes time to get married, I will give another reward. ”
"Emperor Xie!" Xu De hurriedly knelt down and thanked him: "The slave wants to send him to the inner factory for training!" ”
Although he spoiled his son a little, Xu De still wanted his son to have some interest, and the inner factory was mixed in the market, which was also in line with his son's appetite. In addition, he and his father are here, and he is not worried about his son making any mistakes, he has always wanted to find an errand for his son, and now that the emperor mentioned it, Xu De took the opportunity to say it.
"Yes, but you have to graduate from the training class, by the way, you are not allowed to say hello and cheat!" Zhu Yijun said with a smile.
