Chapter 40: Promoted to the fourth grade, the royal gift of the pearl, and the promotion and fortune came together
The first year of Jingsheng, March 20.
The weather in Kyoto of Great Wei still did not see spring, and the biting cold wind howled throughout the palace.
Hundreds of civil and military officials gathered in the court.
The Great Wei Dynasty was divided into a small court meeting and a large court meeting, a small court meeting on three days, and a big court meeting on ten days.
Today is the great court meeting, hundreds of officials gathered, standing in the main hall, everyone knows that a thrilling battle is about to begin.
In fact, the battle was more intense than expected.
Since the beginning of the court meeting, Liu Party officials have taken the lead in launching an offensive to impeach Li Jie for various crimes, and there are more than 30 letters of remembrance.
The Li Party seems to be the weakest, but everyone is a literati, and it is too simple to write a recital and impeachment.
Moreover, the Li Party seized the sore feet of the Liu Party and entangled in the affairs of Zhening Mansion.
"I would like to inform Your Majesty, recently an official came to Beijing to denounce the Zuo Shilang of the household department for being corrupt and perverting the law, and the fertile land in Zhejiang Ning Mansion has been inexplicably suppressed, and the people have sold their fields at a low price, and life is better than death."
"This kind of behavior is only related to changing rice to mulberry, and the minister believes that some people use the rice to change to mulberry to make profits, and the tea poisons the people, please also ask Your Majesty to learn about it."
Similar to this impeachment, Li Dang is well prepared and lists many incriminating evidence.
Similarly, the Liu Party forces have long guessed that the Li Party forces will do this, and there is a way to resolve it.
In the court, the officials of the two factions fought each other, and they were extremely ferocious, and in the end they became more and more intense, and they were almost about to fight in the court.
Faced with this scene, Jiang Lingming, the empress of the Great Wei Dynasty, was furious on her face, but her heart was extraordinarily calm.
Of course, it is impossible to say that there is no fluctuation at all, the two parties compete and break the news to each other, and all of Xu Shouyun's conjectures are also confirmed one by one.
made the empress believe that Xu Shouyun had the ability to reach the sky.
But it also made Jiang Ling feel bitter hatred, hating these officials, all of them were sanctimonious, open-mouthed benevolent, and moral, but they didn't care about the lives of the people.
This kind of person is disgusting.
It's a pity that the power is not in the hands, otherwise they will all be beheaded.
This quarrel lasted for two hours, and the previous court meeting ended in one hour, and the great court meeting ended in an hour and a half, unless something particularly tricky happened.
But this time for two hours, the two sides were still chattering, and the empress rubbed her temples, and then said: "The matter of the right to choose the site, we will talk about it the next day, and retreat from the dynasty." ”
The emperor spoke, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty could only give up, if it was changed before, someone would really stand up to stop it.
But now both sides know that the real dominance is in the hands of the empress, and there is no need to continue to make enemies, so the empress said to withdraw from the dynasty, even if everyone is not convinced, they can retreat from the dynasty with peace of mind.
However, after retiring from the dynasty, the hundred officials marched in three batches, the Yang Party walked behind, and the Liu Party and the Li Party walked side by side, looking at each other unpleasantly.
No matter who it is, it is difficult to keep his sanity when he is on top, Li Jie is like this, he knows that today's court meeting will definitely quarrel.
But what he didn't expect was that Liu Dang's methods were too dirty, and some of the evidence made him angry, this is not to impeach himself, this is to kill himself.
Feeling the malice of the Liu Party, Li Jie was also completely determined to stir up this matter.
The benefits are not good to put aside, since you are in the game, there is no soft-heartedness.
For Liu Dang, if you want to do it, you can do it to the end, who is afraid of whom?
So the situation became extremely intense.
It is not only outside the palace that is also boiling, but also inside the palace is completely boiling.
With the promulgation of a holy decree, countless eunuchs and palace maids in the entire palace were shocked.
"The first-class eunuch Xu Shouyun, because he found His Majesty's beloved earrings, this thing was given by the first emperor, and it has great significance in His Majesty, and it is recorded as a great merit, and the first-class eunuch is the eunuch in charge of the Wuning Palace, and the official residence is four products, and a jewel is given to the emperor to show the emperor's grace."
This is the general content of the decree.
When the news came out, the entire palace was completely boiling, perhaps for those ministers outside the palace, the four-rank eunuchs were nothing.
Because this kind of official rank is meaningless, you say that the fourth grade is equivalent to a fourth-class domestic slave in their eyes, even if Xu Shouyun is named a first-class eunuch.
The courtiers will not have many ups and downs, unless they touch the vested interests of some people.
Eunuchs had no human rights or status in the Great Wei Dynasty, and only had a certain amount of power in the palace, and they could not radiate to the outside.
Everyone is completely two systems, so naturally it is nothing, let alone a four-grade eunuch?
Of course, if the emperor is strong, then this four-grade eunuch will have a certain effect, after all, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty want to please the emperor and want to get the emperor's favor.
The eunuch is their help, but now the empress only has part of the military power, and her prestige is insufficient, and she is still a woman, not strong.
But it's different in the womb.
Their world is in this palace, and every move, any wind and grass, is new to them.
A first-class eunuch, who has only been in the palace for only a month, has been directly promoted to a fourth-grade eunuch, how can this kind of thing not shock them?
Of course, in addition to the shock, there is more envy, the empress lost her earrings, everyone knows that this is an opportunity, and whoever picks it up can get the emperor's favor.
It's just that I didn't expect this earring to be so important, it is the only relic left by the first emperor to His Majesty, so I don't think anything if I am even promoted to the fourth level, I just think that Xu Shouyun's luck is also good, right?
At this moment, in front of Xu Shouyun's residence, Chu Yunrou appeared again, and compared to the previous promotion of official position, it was more solemn at this time.
Eight palace maids and eight eunuchs are all holding things.
There are clothes, belts, shoes, waist tags, and basic items rewarded by His Majesty, which can be said to have everything.
In the Great Wei Palace, there is one chief manager of the first grade, two chief managers of the second grade, three deputy chiefs of the third grade, and nine eunuchs in charge of the fourth grade, after all, there are nine halls in the palace.
"Father-in-law Xu, in the future, the affairs of this Wuning Hall will be managed by Father-in-law Xu, which is considered a drudgery, and it will be tiring to Father-in-law Xu."
Chu Yunrou had a gentle attitude, if she was just an ordinary eunuch in charge of the palace, Chu Yunrou would not have looked at her twice, she was the maid beside the emperor.
The general manager of Yipin should also be polite when he sees her.
But Xu Shouyun is different, he is a person that His Majesty likes, although he is only a eunuch, it does not affect His Majesty's liking.
Chu Yunrou knows how to judge the situation and is naturally willing to make friends with Xu Shouyun.
"Please rest assured, Miss Chu, Xu will definitely take care of everything in Wuning Palace."
Xu Shouyun made a salute, and he was very happy to be promoted to the fourth grade, and the happiest thing was the emperor's imperial gift of the orb, which was the key, not the preciousness of the orb.
But it represents the imperial power, saying that he will be the emperor's person in the future, and get the emperor's favor, don't look at the only four grades, two grades and three grades, and even the chief manager doesn't dare to make things difficult when he sees himself.
Unless you're not afraid to make a small report yourself.
For Chu Yunrou, Xu Shouyun has heard of it, and the cronies and maids beside His Majesty are only afraid of their status second only to their own identity as a connector.
So Xu Shouyun didn't dare to make a mistake.
"Okay, Father-in-law Xu, if Your Majesty has something to look for me today, I won't chat, if Father-in-law Xu has something to find me, you can come directly."
"Things outside the palace, I can't say, things inside the palace, as long as Gonggong Xu works for His Majesty and is loyal, Yun Rou can also help some."
Chu Yunrou said it a little more obscurely, but everyone could hear the meaning of the words.
I want to establish an alliance with Xu Shouyun.
That's an unusual sign.
"Please rest assured, Miss Chu."
Xu Shouyun continued to salute, and then Chu Yunrou left, Xu Shouyun was not verbose, and directly changed into this set of clothes of the eunuch of the four-rank palm hall.
Take the collection of words written yesterday and go to Yeonfu Palace.
Revenge aside, Concubine Liu's side is the important thing.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he found that Li Jing and the others were all waiting for him outside the door.
