In the seventeenth year of Hongwu, Emperor Taizu Gao put down an iron plaque in the palace and wrote: "Ministers are not allowed to interfere in political affairs, and those who are predestined will be beheaded." Immediately, a rule was established that it was strictly forbidden for the internal supervisor to read and write. However, this regulation was soon abolished by Emperor Taizu Gao himself, because there must always be a few literate eunuchs who took care of the documents and kept the imperial treasure books.

However, Emperor Gao only acquiesced in the literacy of internal officials, and could never understand the meaning of the text.

The dual-track tradition of Chinese writing allowed eunuchs who were literate but not literal to know what was said in the text, and could only pick out the classic texts that the emperor needed against the glyphs and pictures.

In the Yongle period, Chengzu needed a more powerful private secretary, ordered people to teach internal officials, and set up the East Factory, which completely destroyed the design of Emperor Taizu Gao. During the Xuande period, Xuanzong set up an inner study hall, selected four Hanlin officials to teach grammar full-time, and set the training of internal officials as a regulation. And the purpose is clear, that is, to "save for more than ten years or twenty or thirty years later".

Ordinary eunuch houses need the housekeeper in charge of the inner house to be easy-going and the Qingke friends who are responsible for external entertainment, not to mention that the Son of Heaven takes the world as his home, if there are only foreign ministers and no internal officials, it is also yin and yang.

Zhu Cihong knows this very well. Just like his team of professional managers, external marketing work is as important as internal finance and human resources. And from his experience, if you want to hold power firmly in your hands, you can get twice the result with half the effort by taking the route from the inside out.

It's a pity that in this hierarchical Shijie, even as a prince, he doesn't want to choose an "insider" by himself. - Just as the primary school students of later generations are not qualified to choose their own tutors or cram schools.

Leaving Tian Cunshan was not Zhu Cihong's kindness, but he knew that among the tens of thousands of eunuchs in Ouchi, there must be many more rotten apples than good apples. Instead of changing people like a marquee, it is better to use the waste, and it also saves the father and queen mother from making trouble, which is annoying.

Now that he is outside the palace, he finally has a certain amount of personnel power, and he must choose some reliable subordinates for himself.

Tian Cunshan is not a fool, he knows his status in the heart of the prince. Because of the stain of the past, no matter how much he welcomes his wishes, it will be difficult to gain 100% of the trust of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. And in terms of his ability to do things, the prince is obviously not very satisfied with him. Therefore, the task of finding Liu Ruoyu is really painful for Tian Cunshan. If it is done, it is to dig a grave for yourself; If he can't do it, the prince won't give him a good face.

It's just that he didn't expect that there were a dozen or so eunuchs with a bit of identity around the prince, and there was still a shili lurking in him who wanted to kill him quickly. Because of the joint efforts of these people, Liu Ruoyu entered the prince's study, and he, the seal official, knew that the person had been found.

Tian Cunshan was guarding the door of the study, his heart was uneasy, and every time a few words flowed out of the curtain, he made his imagination come to mind.

It was as if there was a long sword, piercing his heart inch by inch.

Zhu Cihong listened to Liu Ruoyu's detailed talk about his life after being released from prison, and judged whether Liu Ruoyu was exaggerating or concealing it. Liu Ruoyu's performance in this regard is perfect, and he almost talked about his life in the past two years without any emotion, calm and objective.

- This person can be the mastermind!

Zhu Cihong said secretly in his heart.

"How do we open up the situation now?" Zhu Cihong asked.

Liu Ruoyu gently pinched the knuckles of his little thumb, and his heart was already awake.

The prince seemed to be in a hurry to leave the palace, but on the first day of leaving the palace, he recruited an old official of the Soldiers and Horses Division, met with the officials of the East Palace and Shen Tingyang, and also dated Li Banghua, the imperial history of the left capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. As for the question of opening up the situation, I am afraid that there are more interviews than questions.

He was determined, and he was not worried that what he said was contrary to the crown prince Jihua.

The key is whether the crown prince can fill in the gaps.

"Your Highness," Liu Ruoyu said, "If you talk about curing the plague, I'm afraid you have to meet the Criminal Department and the Shuntian Mansion before you can make a decision." ”

"The ministry is overwhelmed, and I want to use the East Palace guards to do this." Prince Road.

"East Palace Guards......" Liu Ruoyu frowned slightly, and added: "When the old minister was in the palace, there were no East Palace guards, so I don't know if it is useful or not. "Liu Ruoyu was imprisoned in the second year of Chongzhen, when the prince was still in infancy and there were no guards.

"It's unbearable," Zhu Cihong shook his head and said, "So I still have to recruit soldiers and practice in person." ”

Liu Ruoyu nodded slightly, and said, "If this is the case, His Highness still needs to find a few speech officials so that he can impeach Zhou Jing, the current guard officer of the East Palace." ”

"Impeachment?" Zhu Cihong was stunned: "I want Zhou Jing to expand the guards, isn't it enough?" ”

"Your Highness," Liu Ruoyu was secretly happy in his heart, "What is Bixia worried about now?" ”

"At the end of the day, it's nothing more than no money." Zhu Cihong said.

- Sure enough, he is very wise!

Liu Ruoyu's eyes flashed, and he couldn't suppress his interest, and said: "Therefore, if Zhou Jing plays Bixia and says that he wants to recruit troops, Bixia will most likely feel that it is not an urgent need, and even recall His Royal Highness back to the palace because of this, completely avoiding the trouble of spending money." Seeing that the prince nodded slightly, Liu Ruoyu continued: "If the prince is silent and just does things, but it is the officials who say that it is difficult to do things and is in danger for His Royal Highness, Bixia will not suddenly ask His Highness to return to the palace." ”

Zhu Cihong casually picked up a white jade ruyi on the table, clapped his hands lightly, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it is the best of the inner phase, and I am still a little tender in this officialdom entanglement." "If you wanted to do anything in your previous life, you would just go straight to it with an email. The so-called office politics, where can it be compared to the Ming officialdom?

Liu Ruoyu was born in the Eight Classics Inner Study Hall and the Master of Ceremonies, and he was almost promoted to the Hall of the Master of Ceremonies, these things are really insightful.

"My father's rebellious heart towards the Yanguan is very deep, as long as those Yanguan urge Bixia to let me go back to the palace, Bixia will not agree." Zhu Cihong extended.

"What His Highness said is very true," Liu Ruoyu also smiled, "But for the sake of safety, someone still has to cheer His Highness for him, I wonder if His Highness has a candidate?" ”

"It's not hard to choose." Zhu Cihong remembered that his interaction with Li Banghua during the day was quite a good relationship between a monarch and a minister. Even if I don't dare to say that the Inspectorate will take refuge in itself, it shouldn't be difficult to find a few mouths to write some articles. He was in a good mood at the moment, and said: "If you are foolish, you know a lot about the palace ban allusions, and it is always useful to find some helpers by yourself." ”

"The old slave is willing to be His Highness's lonely and pure minister!" Liu Ruoyu fell to his knees.

"Get up," Zhu Cihong waved his hand, "I never believed that Lone Chen could get things done. Civil officials advertise themselves as lonely ministers and pure ministers one by one, how many can really do it? Even if it did, what did it do to benefit the country and the people? I don't care if officials form a party, as long as they can do things well, what does it matter if the party is not a party? ”

Liu Ruoyu's heart was pounding, and he suddenly found that this East Palace's views on political affairs may be deeper than many emperors. At that time, the illiterate Wei Zhongxian was able to sideways the ceremonial supervisor, not only because of the Hakka family, but also because he was able to help the emperor get things done.

At least the emperor believed that he could get things done.

After being released from prison, Liu Ruoyu also worked the current situation, but was surprised to find that after the fall of the eunuch party, although the officials of the Donglin-Fushe family took revenge by reversing the case, there were not many of them in power. The so-called "righteous gentleman" and "eunuch villain" have become simple party contention, and those who are crowned with these two titles are not necessarily gentlemen or villains.

However, national politics is declining day by day, and there are fewer and fewer people who do things in a down-to-earth manner, and they are almost extinct.
