Chapter 67: You have to rely on yourself

Xie Hong naturally didn't know what kind of speculation there was outside, and he was surprised at this time.

"Jinyi Wei Qianhu?" The holy decree is very simple, after a few routine sentences, there is an appointment, Xie Hong doesn't know why such an appointment is so mysterious.

"Not bad." Eunuch Xiao Liu said with a smile: "Lord Xie, your current master book is only nine grades, and a thousand households are five grades!" This is the emperor's grace, and thanks to Gonggong Liu's advice. ”

Xie Hong already knew that the little eunuch opposite was not Liu Jin, but he also had something to do with Liu Jin, because this person was Liu Jin's righteous son. He was a little disappointed that he couldn't contact the Eight Tigers directly, but now listening to the meaning of this little eunuch, it seems that he has the intention of wooing.

"Then please ask my father-in-law to thank my father-in-law Liu on behalf of the official." Xie Hong complimented him perfunctorily, and then asked: "Father-in-law Liu, do the thousands of households under the official serve in the capital?" Whether he can enter Beijing or not is what Xie Hong is most concerned about, from the holy decree just read, he didn't hear the meaning of the summons, and he didn't know if he missed it or understood it wrong.

"Well." Eunuch Xiao Liu laughed dryly, and asked mysteriously, "Does Lord Xie know the current situation in the palace?" ”

"I don't know." Xie Hong rolled his eyes, very speechless, in this era, there is no Internet, no newspapers, he is in a small border town, how can he understand the situation in the palace?

"Master Xie, there were some things that should not be said, but we will also be our own people in the future, so it doesn't hurt to talk about these things, don't you say?" Eunuch Liu spoke very slowly, but his eyes kept staring at Xie Hong.

Is this a temptation? Xie Hong's heart sank, but in the eyes of those big people, he was at most a craftsman, so did he need to be so tempted?

"Little Liu's father-in-law is right." This kind of scene is not difficult to deal with, Xie Hong replied with a respectful expression.

Seeing Xie Hong's expression, Eunuch Liu was very satisfied, nodded and said, "Lord Xie must be wondering why the emperor didn't summon you to Beijing, right?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare." Xie Hong replied respectfully, the meaning of the big men can't be guessed casually, let alone the emperor? And this little eunuch behaves strangely, who knows if there will be anything wrong with answering randomly.

"Master Xie, we are all our own people, you don't have to be so polite, you can say whatever you want." Eunuch Liu was relieved: "If it is changed to our family, it must be doubtful." As he spoke, he stopped to see Xie Hong's reaction, but found that Xie Hong still looked like he was listening, and he couldn't help but feel depressed.

It's just a teenager! How is this qi-nourishing kung fu better than many old fritters in the palace? Our family is so tempted, but they can still calm down so much, okay, let's ask for a ruthless surname for you, see if you can continue to calm down?

"Lord Xie must not know, in fact, this time, the palace was supposed to cure Lord Xie's sin."

Could it be that someone has seen through his own methods? Xie Hong was taken aback, but he just thought about it, if there was really such a master, Imperial Doctor Gu didn't need to mention the matter of repairing the pagoda, this little eunuch was cheating people again, it was better to do what he wanted, and see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Xie Hong pretended to be surprised and said, "Little Father-in-law Liu, why is this?" ”

"Hehe," Eunuch Liu tried several times, and finally had an effect, and he couldn't help but be pleased, he smiled and said, "Lord Xie should know that there is a celebrant in the palace, right?" At present, the head of the celebrant is Wang Yue and Wang Gonggong, who is an old man from the previous dynasty, and has always been close to the ministers outside. The previous solicitation order was revoked under the opposition of the prince and the scholar Xie. ”

"According to Imperial Physician Gu, this time's Seven Treasures Linglong Pagoda was obtained from you, my lord, and the prince was very unhappy, thinking that your lordship, you were a scholar who did the things of these craftsmen, and lost your dignity, so he proposed to the emperor to punish you."

I really don't know who Wang Yue is Xie Hong, listening to what this eunuch said, it seems that he is a very powerful person, but it seems that Eunuch Liu is not very good at dealing with this Wang Yue, and he calls Wang Gonggong in his mouth, which seems to be quite respectful, but in fact he is a little hostile. He pretended to be nervous and hurriedly said, "How is this good?" The pagoda was not originally made by the lower officials, but purchased by the lower officials from Henan, and was killed by the imperial doctor Gu. ”

"Master Xie doesn't need to panic," Eunuch Xiao Liu saw this, and the smile on his face was even bigger, "After all, the prince is old, and he is the person who served the emperor of Xiaozong in the previous dynasty, and his knowledge is a little worse after all, and there are still some people around the saint today, for example, Gonggong Liu is." Lord Xie, you should thank Gonggong Liu, if it weren't for Gonggong Liu's arguments, I'm afraid of ......"

He smiled and said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the craftsman is Lord Xie or not, just look at Lord Xie's two offerings, you can know the loyalty of Lord Xie." Although he was young, he was extremely intelligent, and he was naturally more interested in these elaborate things, and he said, "......"

Xie Hong listened to him babbling and praising Zhengde there, and explained to Zhengde by the way, and secretly rolled his eyes again, isn't it just that he is young and likes to play, this is not a strange thing. Who is a 14 or 5-year-old middle school student who doesn't like to play?

Speaking of which, this child Zhengde is really pitiful, young people love to play and have to find so many excuses, otherwise they will be impeached by the ministers. Obviously, Brother can get him out of the sea of suffering, but he was still hindered by an old eunuch. Moreover, the eunuch in front of him said something good, but he may not have any good intentions.

He walked away for a while, and when he came back to his senses and continued to listen, he found that the eunuch had just gotten to the point.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What Gonggong Liu means is that with the prince here, it will be very dangerous for the adults to go to the capital, so let the adults wait first. When Gonggong Liu takes charge of the power in the palace, it is not too late for the adults to enter Beijing again, in order to let Gonggong Liu take power as soon as possible, and also for the sake of the adults themselves...... Adults have to work hard. ”

"Where can the lower officials help Gonggong Liu?"

"Well, it's easy." Eunuch Liu said meaningfully: "Whether it is made by himself or bought, as long as the adults have treasures like the Music Box or the Seven Treasures Linglong Pagoda, they don't need to go through other people, they just need to be sent directly to the capital and handed over to Gonggong Liu, it is a great achievement." ”

He smiled and said: "Actually, even if it is through other people, this thing will be spent once at Gonggong Liu's place after all, hehe, Lord Xie also understands people, so there is no need for our family to explain the truth in detail, right?" ”

Xie Hong suddenly realized, this Liu Jin is really a good calculation, there is something to give him directly, and then the credit is also his, as for himself...... Hmph, it's just a craftsman, not to mention close to Zhengde, after Liu Jin takes the position, it is estimated that he will not even have a chance to come out.

This is to treat my brother as a hired worker in the black coal kiln, Xie Hong gritted his teeth with hatred, why did Wang Yue prevent him from entering Beijing, I'm afraid it's all Liu Jin, the old monster, who is doing it, right? Well, no wonder Zhengde didn't summon himself, it turned out that the credit of the music box and the pagoda was swallowed by the old eunuch.

He took a deep breath and asked again: "Then where is the jurisdiction of the Jinyi Wei Qianhu of the lower official?" ”

"Well, in fact, this identity is to thank the adults for their dedication to the pagoda, and the matter of the adults' dedication to the music box, we didn't know before we left Beijing; Second, it is also convenient for adults to contact Liu Gonggong directly in the future. Gonggong Liu is now in charge of the East Factory, and it is also convenient for adults to contact him. ”

Eunuch Liu's eyes flashed, "As for the jurisdiction, hehe, the Xuanfu has its own thousands of households, and if the adult has something, he can also transfer people, but if it is said to be a normal thing, he will not bother the adult, as long as the adult focuses on Liu ...... No, for the emperor to find handicrafts. ”

"I see, then there will be more Gonggong Liu." Xie Hong suppressed his anger and reluctantly agreed, but in order not to attract the attention of the other party, he still made a grateful expression.

Anger is anger, but Liu Jin is not something he can fight against now, just looking at the little eunuch he sent out casually is so shrewd, Xie Hong can also imagine how powerful the big eunuch who will go down in history will be. Of course, the revenge must be recorded, but it can only be avenged later.

It's just that, in this way, the way I want to attract Zhengde's attention through offering treasure is completely blocked. Xie Hong was frustrated, it seemed that he was still too naΓ―ve, and he was too far from these figures who could play politics.

"Lord Xie really affirmed the righteousness, and he is worthy of Gonggong Liu's weight." Seeing that he was interested, Eunuch Liu was also very satisfied, and remembered another thing, and said: "Her Royal Highness Princess Yongfu likes the music box very much, and Her Royal Highness said: The music played by the box seems to have an unfinished meaning, so I asked our family to come to Xuanfu to also look for one or two, since the treasure is offered by Lord Xie, presumably the music score ......."

It turned out that it was for this, Xie Hong was still wondering just now, what did this little eunuch say about the princess's decree, which made it mysterious. Of course, the tune is not complete, and the music box plays the tune, which is just a short paragraph, and it is too long to make it.

"It's easy to say, the lower official just transcribed a sheet of music to his father-in-law." He was unhappy in his heart, and he didn't have the heart to say more, so he casually agreed.

"Okay, okay." Seeing that all the tasks were successfully completed, Eunuch Liu was also open-minded, and praised Xie Hong repeatedly, but he couldn't read minds, otherwise he wouldn't be so happy.

"It's really not possible to rely on others, brother still has to figure it out by himself." Out of the back hall, Xie Hong looked at the northwest and secretly made up his mind.
