Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 62
Ye Xun didn't know what happened at the gate of the city after he left, so Yang Tongzhi sent him to the gate of the palace and left.

The news of Ye Xun's arrival in Beijing had already been sent to the palace, and the one waiting at the gate of the palace was a young eunuch who was in charge of ceremonies.

When Liang Zhen was about to take people out of the city, Ye Xun was following the little eunuch and heading towards the Chief of Rites.

It was Emperor Wanli who was eager to see Ye Xun, but in order to hold onto Ye Xun, the freshly-baked eunuch guarding Liaodong, Cui Wensheng planned to beat Ye Xun first, so that Ye Xun would know how he got his official position and who he would be in the future. boss.

Ye Xun is a time traveler, and the fear of imperial power in his heart is far less than that of people of this era, but when he is in the majestic and solemn palace, the feeling of awe from the bottom of his heart still arises spontaneously.

The majestic and towering palaces, the white marble railings, and all kinds of vivid beasts make people feel like they are in a mythical world.

The palace building is a stunning work, and only those who stand at the highest point of power are worthy of owning it.

Walking on the wide square of the palace, Ye Xun felt like a busy ant, so small and so involuntary.

Cui Wensheng was not the only one who knew that Ye Xun had entered the palace. Sun Lun of the Imperial Horse Supervisor watched the little eunuch lead Ye Xun towards the direction of the Chief of Rites. A cold smile flashed across his mouth, and then he turned and disappeared behind the palace wall.

It was the first time for Ye Xun to enter the palace. At the beginning, he didn't know that the little eunuch in front of him was going to take him there, but in his impression, the emperor should be in the Qianqing Palace. Ye Xun had visited the Forbidden City in later generations, so he soon found out The direction is wrong.

Taking a step forward, flicking his sleeves lightly, a piece of ten taels of silver was stuffed into the little eunuch's hand without a trace.

He whispered: "Dare to ask this father-in-law, where does His Majesty want to meet me?"

If there is no such piece of silver to open the way, the little eunuch will definitely not talk to Ye Xun. Now that Ye Xun is so upbeat, he can't help but smile and say: "Eunuch Ye, don't worry, Your Majesty doesn't have time to see you right now, it's Eunuch Cui who wants you to go first." Him, and Eunuch Cui will take you to see His Majesty."

After hearing what the little eunuch said, Ye Xun immediately understood that this Cui Wensheng was probably trying to establish his prestige in front of him, and at the same time imprint his brand on himself.

Ye Xun vaguely remembered that this Cui Wensheng's fate seemed to be not good. Seeing that Wanli had only a few days to live, if he got too close to this Cui Wensheng, there was no guarantee that he would not be implicated in the future.

Thinking of this, Ye Xun stopped in his tracks immediately, and said loudly: "My little eunuch, our family is in a hurry to enter the palace to see His Majesty. If Eunuch Cui has something to do, we might as well wait until His Majesty has finished receiving our family."

"You, what did you say?"

The little eunuch is a little silly. Eunuch Cui is the boss of the ceremonial supervisor, and the imperial court’s default inner minister. In his memory, Eunuch Cui asked someone to question him. what's going on?Do you think that you can ignore Eunuch Cui if you have made some contributions in Liaodong?

Seeing that the little eunuch didn't understand, Ye Xun said again: "Please, little eunuch, please reply to Eunuch Cui, and we will visit him after our family visits His Majesty."

The little eunuch finally realized that Ye Xun was not joking. He looked Ye Xun up and down as if he was looking at a monster, and suddenly smiled coldly: "If that's the case, then you just wait here! Hmph! You really don't know how to be flattering"

After speaking, the little eunuch turned around and left, but the money Ye Xun gave him was automatically forgotten.

Ye Xun was also dumbfounded, how could this kid just leave?This is that?Although he had been to the Forbidden City in his previous life, this was in Daming hundreds of years ago. How did he know that the emperor was in that palace?Besides, even if you know it, you can't see it without guidance!
This little bastard, took my money, turned his face and refused to recognize anyone, wait until I see you again.

After looking around for a while, but no one came to talk to him, he couldn't help but feel anxious, secretly regretting that he might as well go to see the dead eunuch first, isn't this setting up enemies in the palace for himself?
Just as he was thinking wildly, there was a slight sound of footsteps behind him. Looking back, he saw a thin eunuch in his forties walking over with a smile.

"This must be the Eunuch Ye whom His Majesty often thinks of. He really is a hero born into a youth. It's better to meet him than to be famous!"

Before the person arrived, a bunch of compliments were handed over first.

Ye Xun knew that this person definitely didn't come from the Supervisor of Rituals, and the direction was wrong, but how could he know himself?

Although he was puzzled in his heart, he quickly bowed and said: "Eunuch has won the award, and it is Ye Xun who is next, how dare you ask him?"

"Hehe! Zajia is just a few years older than you. If you don't dislike it in the future, you might as well call Zajia a big brother."

The middle-aged eunuch patted Ye Xun's shoulder familiarly, then seemed to think of something, patted his head and continued: "Look at my memory, seeing a hero like Brother Ye, I was so happy that I put it on my head for a while. Forget about the business, Brother Ye, hurry up and go with the miscellaneous family, His Majesty has sent a decree to invite Brother Ye to have an audience."

Ye Xun, however, became more and more confused the more he listened, did eunuchs like to call themselves brothers and sisters these days?
Cautiously asked: "Eunuch said that His Majesty wants to see me?"

The middle-aged eunuch seemed to remember something, and said: "Brother Ye, there is no need to worry. My brother's surname is Sun Minglun, and he is trusted by His Majesty. Now he is in charge of the horse guard. Your Majesty just heard that Brother Ye was called away by Eunuch Cui, and he is very upset. , I have to order someone to come to see my brother, it is my brother who wants to see what kind of style Brother Ye is who is so powerful in Liaodong, so he volunteered to come here, well, come quickly with my brother, don't keep your majesty waiting for a long time."

Ye Xun's mind turned quickly, and he immediately understood that this Sun Lun must not be as simple as befriending himself. To work his master?If I guessed right, this guy is giving Cui Wensheng eye drops.

Well, it just so happens that I have no foundation in the palace yet. Although the later generations have never heard of his name, it is definitely not an ordinary person to be able to get into the position of the boss of the Yumajian.

Thinking of this, he hurriedly bowed again and said: "Brother Sun is too polite, brother brought some local products from Liaodong, and I will send them to my brother when I turn back."

Hearing Ye Xun's words, Sun Lun's eyes were almost cracked with laughter, and he thought that this kid was really good.

At that moment, the two vain-headed guys were bragging about each other and walking towards Qianqing Palace, this time the direction was finally right.

Emperor Wanli was really angry. He had said publicly more than once before that when Ye Xun arrived, he must come to see him immediately. But now, Ye Xun arrived, but was robbed by Cui Wensheng halfway. This dead eunuch What do you want to do?
Of course, it was Sun Lun who brought this matter to Wanli. This guy has been thinking about the position of Supervisor of Rites for a long time, but Cui Wensheng has Concubine Zheng behind him, so he couldn't do anything for a while.

But since Ye Xun was born, Sun Lun clearly felt that the emperor was becoming more and more dissatisfied with Cui Wensheng.

In other words, the opportunity that Sun Lun had been waiting for might finally come. Eunuch Sun was not in the mood to do the job of sending charcoal in the middle of nowhere, and it was one of his favorite things to do when he occasionally made trouble.
