At the end of the stone road to the right, there is a gate painted with red paint, the gate is connected to the red city wall, or the door is opened on a wall, there are two upturned eaves on the door, like a sacred bird looking up to the sky, there are dark yellow words on the brown background in the center of the two eaves, and there are three big characters on it: Master of Ceremonies.

Several little eunuchs ran all the way from the stone road, panting, and did not hide the panicked look on their faces.

After passing through the door, it suddenly opened up, and there were remedies on both sides, and in the center there was a hall with three gates, and in the hall there were tables and benches, and the eunuchs in red robes and high positions were working here.

For several dynasties, the celebrant began to gradually participate in the court politics, and the opinions of the cabinet vote had to pass them first, once the emperor was lazy and neglectful, then the eunuch with the palm print of the celebrant was the 'emperor'.

But today here is a panic,

"Grandpa You! Ma Gonggong! Big things are wrong! Gonggong Liu provoked the anger of the saint, this time I am afraid that he will not be spared! ”

You Ji and Ma Yongcheng were stunned like lightning when they heard it,

It really happened suddenly, everything was normal this morning, why did it start to change suddenly at night?!

Fortunately, he has always been the emperor's favor for Liu Jin. But Ma Yongcheng and Liu Jin are two old brothers, relying on Brother Liu, although he is not a palm print eunuch, he still has a bit of prestige in the palace, once Liu Jin falls, his good days will come to an end!

So he ran out in great eagerness, pointed to the person kneeling on the ground and asked, "What the hell is going on?" Let's take it into detail! If you dare to leak a word, our family will cut your tongue! ”

"Ma Gonggong is so majestic!"

At this moment, an angry scolding voice came from outside the gate.

When Ma and You heard this, the whole person trembled in shock, and You Ji beckoned inside, "Come out and pick up the car!" ”

On the stone pavement, several guards carried lanterns, and the emperor was indeed ahead of the crowd.

Ma Yongcheng really wanted to slap himself, his soul flew nine days away, and a pair of old legs and knees slammed straight on the stone slab, "The slave doesn't know the current situation of the holy driver, and he misspoke, please punish Your Majesty!" ”

There are also people kneeling to welcome the holy car.

Zhu Houzhao pointed sideways at Liu Jin, who had been tied, and said, "Liu Jin is your heart, isn't it?" Your father-in-law wants to know about him, and I will report to you! ”

"Slaves don't dare! Slaves don't dare! Your Majesty, please calm your anger! ”

Zhu Houzhao raised his eyes to see the words of the celebrant supervisor, and his heart was suspicious, he originally thought that Liu Jin was smart, and it was easy to use because he was smart.

But at the same time, he also ignored some of his other faults, or said that this clever man hid them so well that he didn't notice them.

In fact, Liu Jin is power-hungry and arrogant, not to mention being a saint, or being an ordinary person with a basic sense of morality is not qualified.

He still remembered that Wang Qiong, the governor of Zhejiang, had given him silver at the beginning.

If he found that there was one person to send it, there should be a hundred people behind his back, otherwise he wouldn't be able to open a place like a high-end club like Drunken Immortal Building with empty gloves.

Liu Jin is insincere, and this matter can be basically determined.

"Youji!"

"The slave is here."

"From today onwards, you will temporarily take the position of the eunuch in charge of the seal. Check out Liu Jin and his henchmen......"

Ma Yongcheng's body was shocked.

"Slaves and maids obey Your Majesty's holy decree."

"Ma Yongcheng, you have also temporarily handed over the post of celebrant supervisor, and if you miss a word, you will cut off people's tongues, I have been in the palace for so many years, and the palace servants have made big and small mistakes, have you ever been as cruel as you? Check if this guy has a case of human life! ”

"Your Majesty spare your life, Your Majesty spare your life! The slave and maid are speechless today, but the slave and maid dare not hide anything from Your Majesty! Your Majesty, please be clear! ”

Zhu Houzhao chuckled, "I will beg for mercy, I know that insincerity is my taboo, but now it's too late!" ”

After speaking, he glanced at You Ji.

This guy is quite calm, in fact, this opportunity should have been waiting for him for a long time, it seems that in the past few years in the palace, the cultivation of kung fu has increased a lot.

"You come with me."

"Yes."

You Di didn't know the cause and effect, and it was not good to ask Liu Jin what angered the emperor at this time.

He didn't know that the emperor was a little upset during the day.

After arriving at the Qianqing Palace, the gate was closed, and You Ji knelt down very consciously.

"Liu Jin and Ma Yongcheng, are they honest on weekdays?"

You Zhi replied: "Gonggong Liu doesn't like slaves and maids, so he has to avoid slaves and maids in everything. The slave and maid also knew that His Majesty was anxious, and what did Liu Gonggong do, His Majesty gave the slave and maid a few days, and allowed the slave and maid to check and give details. ”

"Hmm. After you take office, one is to investigate Liu Jin, and the other is to send a message to the town guards and garrison eunuchs in various places, and the court will clean up the military camp, and whoever does not cooperate will be moved in the palace. ”

You Di suddenly realized, oh, the emperor's mind is here.

Sure enough, it's still the same style.

"Slave obeys!"

"Don't kill a lot of people in the palace, it's not a good thing to make people panic. After taking office, whoever sent you something, you will remember it and report it, and whoever entrusts you to do it, you will also report it, I still have that sentence, for the inner servant I only need two points, one is loyalty, the other is honesty, in my opinion, you have both of these points.

As for receiving something...... If the water is clear, there will be no fish, and if people are observed, there will be no disciples, and it is unlikely that you will all be Zhang Mao, as long as you don't collect too much, when have I been held accountable? This Liu Jin gradually forgot this truth, you have to keep his lesson in mind. ”

You Ji kowtowed, "Slaves and maids follow the teachings of the Holy Lord." ”

"Keep your eyes open when employing people, I can't keep an eye on the eunuchs all over the country every day, so if they have a problem, I can only look for you. It's the same with you, you deal with what goes wrong. Don't wait for me to find out about those problems, then it'll be too late. ”

"The slave understands that Gonggong Liu likes to be majestic, so he only uses some flattering people, where are those people who are sincere in doing things, and they dare not play when there are bad things, for fear of upsetting Gonggong Liu."

Zhu Houzhao didn't bother to take a closer look, "Goolan has always been elegant, and his father-in-law has been prestigious. Say no more, go down and get busy. ”

"Yes, the slave and maid are gone."

After You Ji left the Qianqing Palace, a few little eunuchs came to him and whispered: "Congratulations to Gonggong You, this joy fell from the sky, it should be Gonggong You who has such a good life." ”

"So to speak, it's a good time to catch up."

The moonlight bypassed the clouds and shone the expression of the person in front of You Ji, a young man with a wide flat face and slender eyes, "The little ones kowtow to Gonggong You!" ”

You Xi didn't refuse, this matter came too suddenly, he was the time to hire people, this You Xi has been close to him for a long time because he has the same surname as him.

"Get up and come with us. There's a lot going on tonight. ”

"Hey, okay." You Xi walked on the side, quite actively lighting the lantern, "My father-in-law said to catch up with the good time, what kind of good time is this?" Can you tell us about the little ones? ”

"You don't understand."

You Ji is used to being cautious in the palace, so he easily doesn't say what he wants to say to anyone, and besides, it's just his guess.

He went back to inquire about Liu Jin's anger tonight, but no matter what the reason, the key was Liu Jin's bad luck.

Because the emperor wants to clean up the military cantonments in the border towns.

Those garrison eunuchs, according to reason, are all appointed by the emperor.

However, there is also an ecological chain between eunuchs, and when you become a eunuch, you will inevitably have to tie up with the legendary position - the eunuch who holds the seal of the celebrant eunuch.

Moreover, Liu Jin's ability to take charge of the seal of the celebrant also shows that he listens to the emperor.

Within the normal political logic and the principle of employing people, Liu Jin's people can be used.

There is no doubt about that.

And to replace him at this time is to directly remove the 'protective umbrella' of the eunuchs guarding the various border towns.

You Ji guessed that it should be that the garrison eunuch of Ningxia Town was not particularly obedient.

The emperor has very strict requirements for eunuchs, but if there is a little disagreement with the palace, there will be corresponding consequences immediately.

As for how the emperor knew, You Di probably mentioned it by the ministers.

The Son of Heaven is a eunuch in one hand and a civil servant in the other, restraining and exposing each other, which is to ensure that the truth of the matter can be understood to the greatest extent.

And the eunuchs guarding Ningxia Town are not very obedient, which does not mean that these people ignore the will of the palace, so it is not enough.

But the emperor did call the three of them before, and specially instructed that the people in the palace should not set up obstacles for their own people.

But the result was not good, so this incident exposed another problem: because the people below were reluctant to their own interests, Liu Jin's control over them also decreased.

Why the drop?

Because they are Liu Jin's people, they will be filial piety, and they will make a little mistake by Yang Fengyin, but Liu Gonggong, who is the celebrant supervisor, can protect his own family.

A 'group' is formed here, and then it is natural to knock off the head.

That's where his life comes in.

And the emperor's way to solve this unsmooth decree is also very unique, and he directly found a reason to remove Liu Jin.

When this matter spread, the various garrison eunuchs were absolutely dumbfounded, they were familiar with Liu Jin in the past, and they could still talk about it, but now what do they say to him?

You must know that Liu Jin guards him strictly, and those people are not familiar with him.

Moreover, Liu Jin fell, once something was found out, they themselves were easily afraid.

A bunch of frightened birds, no matter how greedy and bold they are, they don't dare to commit crimes against the wind at this time.

In this way, the resistance encountered by the eunuchs in the clean-up of the military camp will instantly become invisible, and compared with those few acres of land, it is more important to save their lives first.

It's wonderful.

You Ji thought about it as he walked, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the emperor's mind was really bottomless, and I am afraid that Liu Jin, who was as smart as he was, didn't understand where he fell at this time.

That's why the ministers said that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger.

Now, it is also simple for him, where the imperial court wants to clean up the military camp, the celebrant will send it urgently, then the local garrison eunuch will have to come to deal with him.

To tie him up is to tie up the emperor, because You Ji also understands that if he can't do this, it will be no different from Liu Jin's fate.

As for what crime Liu Jin has committed, does it matter?
