The celebrant is a unique system in the Ming Dynasty, one of the 24 yamen of the inner court, and the first of the twelve eunuchs of the internal affairs government. The celebrant was then in charge of secrets, reviewing and reciting the chapters, and all the emperor's dictated orders were recorded by the eunuchs with a red pen, and then submitted to the cabinet to prepare an edict and be proofread and issued by the six ministries.

This yamen had similar functions to the previous cabinet, that is, the emperor's secretary. There are many complicated political affairs in the world, but there is only one emperor, and he must be too busy, and the secretary must have it, the original secretary is a cabinet scholar, and the master of ceremonies is a later.

The emperor's secretary is very prominent, but the cabinet scholars are not looked down upon, because the prime minister looks more promising, so the cabinet ministers pick a child, and the emperor can't save the heart of the cabinet, so he has no choice but to find someone else.

Talents are scarce in any era, and it is difficult for the emperor to find a secretary.

It's not okay to find it from the court, the courtiers are all higher than the sky, so they are willing to settle down and be a secretary for a few days, and after a few days of shaking, they will also set their sights on the position of the first assistant.

At the same time, the cabinet will not allow anyone to follow this old path, when no one ascends to the sky, it is a shortcut; After someone goes up, if the latecomer wants to go the same way, he will definitely be kicked.

There was no one in the court, and the emperor was naturally helpless, but in order not to be tired to death, and then there was a little space for leisure and entertainment, this secretary still had to be found, where to find it? The emperor looked around blankly, and found that there were only a few obedient people around him, who could barely use it.

Eunuchs, the best candidates for royal secretaries, at least, they are self-aware, knowing that unless they are rebuilt, they will not be prime ministers anyway, well, congenital deficiencies.

Therefore, starting from Emperor Xuanzong, he set up an inner study in the palace, so that the Hanlin scholars could teach the eunuchs to read and write, and then select the best to serve as the glorious mission of the royal secretary.

After the cabinet almost monopolized the court, the emperor relied more on his secretary, so the celebrant had another responsibility, that is, to confront the foreign courts, especially the cabinet, to achieve the role of containment.

As a result, the ministers who had been proud for a long time were surprised to find that this junior who suddenly appeared had the tendency to catch up. If the person in charge of the celebrant is a person who has a close relationship with the emperor, such as Wang Zhenzhi and others, then the celebrant can almost represent the imperial power, and there is no doubt that he will steadily suppress the cabinet.

Is this worth it? That's emasculation! It's a bunch of guys who specialize in bad things!

The Wenchen woke up, and they began a hard and outstanding struggle, with many benevolent and righteous people, overcoming obstacles along the way, including Wang Zhi, a great eunuch who was once powerful, countless notorious eunuchs fell...... The struggle of the civil servants was fruitful. After the Chenghua year, just like the Jinyi guard, the celebrant eunuch is also said to be gradually declining, and now, the eunuch Wang Yue of Bingbi is relying on the snort of the outer court to keep his position, and he has completely surrendered to the feet of the outer court.

Of course, Wang Yue is not so willing, he often looks at Wansui Mountain and sighs, sighing that his life is not at the right time, and he thinks of the heroic posture of Wang Zhen, Wang Zhi and other ancestors back then...... However, life is like a bad meal, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you have to chew it in your mouth, otherwise you will starve. Without the support of foreign courts, the position of the prince is afraid that it will be gone in an instant. The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves, the front waves die on the beach, and the current juniors are fierce! Listen to what the outer dynasty called them? Eight Tigers! What an apt name, people who read are different.

Retracting his gaze from the Long Live Mountain, Wang Yue frowned deeply. Now that the situation has changed too fast, the threat of the Eight Tigers has not been eliminated, and there is actually an even more fierce one!

Xie Hong, just thinking of this name, Wang Yue gritted his teeth with hatred, and his body was also shivering. Not to mention the past, just talking about this month, it is because of Xie Hong's bad idea that the prince has spent a lot of thought!

Not Xie Hong's idea? How can it be? If it weren't for his disaster-like carriage to go to the Qianqing Palace, how could the emperor suddenly have a big change in his surname?

Since he can walk, how can the current emperor stay in a room for a month and not go out? Even if it was the upper court, it came and went in a hurry, as if it would not be able to live without that house...... It's so weird, there must be something wrong!

Wang Yue didn't cross over, so he didn't know the terms of the later generations, otherwise he would definitely scold Xie Hong and turn a good child into an otaku...... But the eccentric prince among them is very sure.

In addition, since the emperor brought Xie Hong back to the palace, he has changed his previous attitude, not only does he not listen to the courtiers, but there are also faint signs of fighting against foreign courts, and he has even attacked Jinyiwei!

The same thing, in the eyes of different people, will have different meanings. In the eyes of others, it was just a manifestation of Xie Hong's arrogance, but in the eyes of the prince, it was clearly a warning: an unfamiliar dog will be beaten!

Jin Yiwei is the emperor's dog, so why not Wang Yue? Xie Hong dared to clean up Shi Wenyi, he dared to clean up Mu Bin, and when the two of them finished cleaning up, I am afraid it will be his turn to be the prince.

Wang Yue didn't want to be beaten like this, and he wanted to keep his position even more, so he got closer to the outer court, and even helped Liu Daxia fool Zhengde and drafted a holy decree to deal with Xie Hong...... The news from outside the palace disappointed him and made him tremble! That holy decree didn't work at all, Xie Hong was unharmed, but Liu Daxia made a disgraced face, and broke a confidant Sun Song.

is brave and strategic, and does not pay attention to the rules, he is still a decisive ...... What's more, the favor he received was unprecedented! This person is terrible, what are the Eight Tigers? Compared to him, even if you stack those eight guys together, you can't even compare to a finger.

Be sure to get rid of this Xie Hong! Wang Yue clenched his fists tightly, his nails pierced deep into the flesh, and green tendons appeared on his dry hands.

"Father-in-law, father-in-law......" There was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and the people who came shouted as they ran.

Wang Yue's anger had a place to vent, and as soon as he turned around, he didn't look at anyone, just a roar: "Damn it, are there any rules?" What is this place? Who gave you the guts to dare to run around here and make noise, come here......"

"Daddy, Daddy! It's me! I'm a little fish! "The one who came in was a little eunuch, not very old, and his face was full of joy, but as soon as he entered the door, he was roared by Wang Yue before he could stand firmly, and the three souls flew away first, and he almost fainted in fright. Seeing that Wang Yue began to call people, he was in a hurry, although he didn't know what kind of open fire his godfather had made, but if he was dragged out, it would be fatal.

"Is that you little? Go down. Seeing that it was his godson, Wang Yue calmed down a little, waved his hand at the few eunuchs who rushed in, and said angrily: "Didn't our family let you keep an eye on the Qianqing Palace?" You little cub actually dare to run back and be lazy, hurry up and give me back to stare at it, I missed our family's big thing, be careful of your skin! ”

"Dad, my son came back for this, the emperor is out of the palace!" Wang Xiaoyu lowered his voice and said.

"Well, the emperor went to court again? That's not ......," Wang Yue said casually. This month is like this, except for the last dynasty, Zhengde must be in the Qianqing Palace. When I went to the court, I also fought quickly, and I returned to the palace after a while, and during the last dynasty, among the eight tigers, there were a few who stayed behind, and wanted to break through? You have to have the consciousness of facing the righteousness that will come back at any time.

"Dad, what time is this? Besides, the emperor didn't go to the Taihe Palace, he left the Forbidden City! Wang Xiaoyu was anxious, is his godfather old and confused these days, but he came to report the good news, but he was scolded first, scared half to death, and then he ignored his love.

"The emperor is out of the Forbidden City? Where did he go? How is the Qianqing Palace? Can anyone stay? Wang Yue came back to his senses, stood up suddenly, grabbed Wang Xiaoyu's arm, and asked a series of questions.

Wang Xiaoyu endured the pain and replied: "Just like the old emperor at that time, the emperor went out of the palace in micro-clothes, Ma Yongcheng followed him, and the others didn't see anyone, maybe in the Qianqing Palace." I don't know where the emperor went, but some people heard the emperor muttering: old, new and so on, but they don't understand what it means......"

"Someone, someone!" Wang Yue was excited, shook off his godson's hand, and shouted out one after another.

The eunuchs who had just withdrawn rushed in again, saluted Wang Yue and pressed Wang Xiaoyu down with all hands and feet, and dragged him outside, Wang Xiaoyu was also so frightened that his soul was not possessed, and he said in his heart: Godfather, sooner or later, I am confused at this time, why is my life so bitter.

"What are you pulling him for? If you don't go and inform Lao Zhao and Lao Li quickly, tell them to come over quickly, bring all the manpower, and our family will go to the Qianqing Palace to catch them! Wang Yue's face lit up, and he said incoherently, very unscrupulous.

The Lao Zhao and Lao Li he said were Zhao Lian, the eunuch of the palm print of the celebrant eunuch, and Li Zhong, the eunuch of Bingbi, both of whom were Wang Yue's henchmen, and several eunuchs understood it, but they could hear the last sentence...... Go to the Qianqing Palace to catch annihilation? Is this the prince talking nonsense with a fever?

A few of the people who dragged them were all stumbling, so that they could hang on the ground; Wang Xiaoyu, who reported the news, was also dizzy, he didn't seem to say anything strange, why did his godfather come out with a sentence to catch him? It seems that this old fool is also a disease, and he must be cured!

When the eunuchs went out stupidly, Wang Xiaoyu asked tentatively: "Dad, how do you know that there are women in the Qianqing Palace?" "First of all, regardless of whether the word capture can be used on the emperor, when it comes to the word annihilation, there must be a woman to be able to call it, so the little eunuch has this question.

"Our family asks you, when the emperor leaves the palace, is there a new face around him?" After being reminded, Wang Yue's mind calmed down slightly, and he thought of what might be missing.

Wang Xiaoyu shook his head: "No, only Ma Yongcheng followed the emperor, and when he arrived at the palace gate, Qian Ning and those people greeted him." ”

"That's right! Little cub, tell you to read more, right? You're lazy, if you're as knowledgeable as our family, you'll understand. Wang Yue taught his godson earnestly:

"Haven't you heard Tang poems? But seeing the newcomer laughing, how can I hear the old man crying, Xie Xiaothief must have sent a woman into the palace, the emperor tasted ** for the first time, and he knew the taste of the marrow, so he nested in the Qianqing Palace and did not come out. Hmph, don't we know? The warmth of the hibiscus tent **, the king has not been early since then, this is what he said. The emperor is a surname who likes the new and hates the old, and he estimates that women are about the same, so he ......"

"Oh!" The little eunuch suddenly realized and exclaimed: "Dad, you are so knowledgeable, even compared with the university scholars, it is almost less." ”

Wang Yue waved his hand and said very modestly: "Eh, you can't talk nonsense, we scholars must be humble and courteous, and we can't be complacent, not to mention, compared with a few scholars, our family is still a little bit worse." Well, if you compare it to the six departments and nine qing, it's about the same......"
