The eunuch is also an official, although the rank is lower, and Tong Guan is also an official of the sixth or seventh grade. As an official, especially as a eunuch, the pen is www.biquge.info not so gloomy, but a bit of majesty, which makes Gao Yu a little relieved. But he was still very depressed, or a little distressed, why did Tong Guan become a eunuch?

Distress and headache can't destroy Gao Yu's calm smile, he arched his hand and said, "There is labor!" Then he turned over and got on his horse and walked down the mountain with Tong Guan.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Sha Shiyan was a little anxious: "The king will be fine, right?!" ”

Wu Tong was relieved: "Don't worry, the second master, I know this person here, his name is Tong Guan, and he is a minister in the palace who is not very popular with the emperor, but he has made a lot of good connections in the palace for righteousness and wealth, so he was ordered to get a border errand." This person also has some popularity at the border, why don't the two kings know this person? ”

Sha Shiyan thought for a while: "I also remembered what you said, didn't you just come to the border?" You see, during this time, I was only busy with the things explained by the prince of Xixia Liang, and I didn't even pay a visit. But you count these eunuchs as pure people, how can they be so powerful? And a beard? ”

Wu Tong is the internal affairs envoy of the Salt Gang, although he is only twenty-six or seventeen years old, but he is proficient in all the affairs of the Western Xia and Song Dynasty, and there is basically nothing he doesn't know about the gossip of the national policy. Listening to Sha Shiyan's question, Wu Tong smiled and said in a low voice: "This question, do you want to listen to the official version or do you want to listen to the wild history?" ”

"What does the official say?"

"The official statement: After a man is over 20 years old, he still has a beard and Adam's apple. So, it's not surprising that eunuchs have beards! ”

Sha Shiyan heard it for the first time, and his eyes widened in disbelief: "Who is this Tong Guan, why do you still have to be purified when you are an adult?" ”

Wu Tong explained: "This person should not be underestimated, he is the righteous son of the king of Zhennan back then, you see, the prince of Liang wants to pretend to be the son of the king, if Tong Guan is in Yongle City, it will be difficult for him to pass this level!" ”

Sha Shiyan became more and more anxious when he heard this, he rubbed his hands and said, "This is really getting more and more troublesome!" By the way, what do you say is the wild history? ”

Wu Tong shook his head: "This can't be spread outside, it will cause a big disaster." He whispered in Sha Shiyan's ear, "Wild history? Then it depends on whether there are people in the silkworm room (silkworm room, which originally refers to the place where silkworms are raised, and later quoted as a prison for palace punishment). If there are people who can hide from the world, there is no difference between eunuchs and non-eunuchs. ”

"Is that okay?" Sha Shiyan couldn't help but be even more surprised.

"Anyway, there are different legends about whether this Tong Guan is a real eunuch, and some say that he was blessed by his father-in-law, so it is difficult to carry out the palace execution; Others said that he had to be a eunuch, but the king of Zhennan gave up his life to prevent the emperor from castrating him, and it happened that the king of Zhennan had an accident, and the emperor did not castrate him because of his old feelings; There is also the fact that there is a noble lady who secretly helped each other and gave a secret book to protect the yang, and when the execution was carried out, the yang shrank to the abdomen. Anyway, there are various opinions outside, but one thing is that Tong Guan can only be a eunuch, and the eunuchs of the Song Dynasty cannot interfere in politics is the legacy of Taizu. ”

"You say so, this Tong Guan still has some skills? Why didn't the emperor kill him and give him an official? ”

"The second master, you don't understand this, the people around the king of Zhennan back then were all officials in the end. Instead of letting them remember the kindness of King Zhennan, the emperor should give them grace to the court, and he can also hold these people on the court and watch them every day. Besides, there are so many people in the palace, and when they encounter different political views, it is inevitable that their own people and themselves will be alienated and disagree after a long time. This is the emperor's intention! As for Tong Guan, when he was a teenager, he followed the king of Zhennan to conquer the west, and he was already a little famous among the young people, and he Wang had deep feelings, the more he was like this, the more he had to watch it! ”

Sha Shiyan smiled when he heard this, pointed at Wu Tong and said, "I see, the king hasn't seen your strengths yet. When he returns, I will mention it to the king. ”

Wu Tong waved his hand: "Don't, don't, don't." Don't look at me and the second master, you can talk endlessly, I am really a little stunned when I look at the king, our king is too deep, anyway, I can't see through. You just said that just now, looking at his calmness, I really think that we are just doing a serious business of the Salt Gang, and we are afraid of war and taking refuge here. ”

The two of them laughed as they spoke, and hurried back to the village to do their own business. And Gao Yu and Tong Guan were originally fathers and sons, but now they are walking side by side, the godson looks more mature than the godfather, and he is a few years older, what kind of world is this, the more Gao Yu thinks about it, the more depressed his face sank involuntarily. A group of people went down the mountain along the rugged mountain road, it was almost noon, many pedestrians along the road on the avenue, all of them entered and exited Yongle City, and occasionally saw the pavilion tea house on the roadside, and there were some passers-by who sat temporarily.

Tong Guan and the others also slowed down their steps with their horses, and at this time Gao Yu walked side by side with him, Tong Guan couldn't help but look at Gao Yu and look at the horse. A few miles away from Yongle City, Tong Guan wiped the sweat from his forehead and pointed to a gazebo not far away: "Let's go there and rest, and drink some water." You are really a high boy, you haven't even let your saliva in your cottage! ”

The soldier listened to the order and stepped forward to disperse the people in the pavilion, and the stall owner of the tea stall did not dare to say much when he saw the official, so he hurriedly collected the tea money and beckoned Gao Yu and the others in his mouth: "A few officials rest their feet and drink some tea to quench their thirst." ”

Gao Yu didn't say much, got off the horse and handed the reins to Zo Ning, who followed behind him, and followed Tong Guan into the pavilion.

There was a group of stone tables and stone benches in the pavilion, and there were several tables and chairs outside the pavilion, and the soldiers consciously sat down around the pavilion, and Zoning led the horse to the river to drink. Gao Yu and Tong Guan sat down face to face, and the tea stall owner was busy pouring water for their tea.

The two of them sat in Gao Yu and asked a bunch of questions, but they didn't know how to ask, but Tong Guan asked: "This son, I don't think it's like you said the salt merchant?" ”

Gao Yu said: "What General Tong said, do you still have to write the word salt merchant on your forehead?" ”

Tong Guan smiled: "Salt merchant? The officials and businessmen are arrogant, and now that the two sides are about to fight, I am afraid that the officials and businessmen will arrive at a safe place as soon as possible. As for the private salt merchants, most of them are cautious and have twinkling eyes. Now that my officers and soldiers have gone to the cottage, can you still not be in a hurry, have you ever seen such a salt merchant who smuggles smuggled salt? ”

"So, General Tong is suspicious?"

"Alas! If you want to say that Gao Gongzi, you have a lot of doubts, but the person who can have this mount should not be a treacherous villain. I've been looking for such a horse for so many years, but alas! ”

If others said this, Gao Yu would definitely ignore it, but this was said by Tong Guan, especially when he saw that there was something flowing in Tong Guan's eyes every time he looked at the horse, which seemed to be full of infinite affection, Gao Yu's heart moved: "If the general likes this horse so much, I will give it to you!" This is not a casual remark, Gao Yu's distress for Tong Guan is incomprehensible. After all, I have watched Tong Guan grow up with my own eyes for more than ten years, especially now that a dignified man sits opposite him, but he can't recognize each other, this feeling is indescribable.

"Hahaha, Childe is interesting enough! But forget it, I like this horse is nothing more than thinking about the old people, and besides, good birds choose trees to perch, good people choose friends and groups, and good horses choose people to carry! How can I win the love of others! After speaking, Tong Guan sighed again.

Gao Yu nodded, although Tong Guan is now a eunuch, he is more peaceful than when he was younger, he asked: "Could it be that the general has something on his mind, why do you keep listening to the general's sighs?" ”

"It's something on my mind, I was originally ordered to return to Beijing, but I heard that my father-in-law's son suddenly reappeared in the world, and it happened that my friend was also coming to Yongle City, so I stayed for a day or two." As he spoke, his eyes kept looking at Gao Yu.

Gao Yu knew that it was his own idea to release the news of the appearance of the son of the king, and this Tong Guan probably suspected that he was the son of the king, how could he be his own son? Gao Yu smiled dumbly.

"Why are you laughing at this boy?" Tong Guan asked puzzled.

"I laugh at General Tong as a bold person, you and I met for the first time, so I said these to me, and thanked them in my heart. If you have the opportunity to meet the general in the future, you will definitely have a good drink. It's not too early for me to see that it's getting dark, so why don't you hit the road early? ”

"Hey, what's the hurry?! When I see you, it's like I see a brother, that's why I talk so much, drink some more water! Tong Guan seemed to be very affectionate and said.

Gao Yu thought to himself, what brother! I'm your godfather! He thought that Tong Guan had already picked up the teapot and spilled it with a puff of water, just at this time Gao Yu held the teacup in his hand, and the warm water was sprinkled on Gao Yu's sleeve at once.

"Oh, yes, this is a trouble, you don't burn this brother, right?" Tong Guan said and grabbed Gao Yu's wrist and pulled Gao Yu's sleeve open.

A few soldiers snickered and muttered, "I don't see that our boy steward still has this hobby." ”

Gao Yu is also a little blind, I haven't seen Tong Guan not only become a eunuch in the past ten years, but also like men? In a hurry, he hurriedly wanted to withdraw his hand, Tong Guan's strength was not small, and with one force, he actually tore half of the sleeves of Gao Yuyu's blue shirt, which allowed Gao Yu's naked arms to be exposed.

"What do you mean by that?" Gao Yu was anxious, and asked with a raised brow and a glare.

Tong Guan stared at Gao Yu's arm, not minding Gao Yu's anger at all, but sighed in disappointment: "Alas, it turns out that you are not?!" ”

"Not? What not? Gao Yu asked angrily, with half of his arms bare, this is really weird. Seeing this, Zo Ning hurriedly stepped forward, holding the package in his hand: "Childe, fortunately I brought clothes!" As he spoke, he took out a brand new robe from the package.

Gao Yuqi snorted and changed his clothes, thinking that it would be okay to ask Tong Guan about this, he threw down his torn shirt and said, "You general is so rude, let's leave it at that!" ”

Turning around to leave, he heard Tong Guan muttering behind him: "He looks so similar, how can he not be a younger brother?" And what about the birthmark on the left arm?! ”
