It is common for adults to purify one's body and enter the palace. Ma Tang was stunned for a moment and then asked Pang Bao: "This is a big deal. Have you made up your mind? If you purify yourself, there will be no regret medicine in the world."

Pang Bao was busy and focused: "Don't worry, father-in-law, I have made up my mind long ago and I will never regret it!"

"Um."

Ma Tang has seen many people like Pang Bao who voluntarily enter the palace to seek wealth and honor for a long time, so it is not surprising.

However, most of these people are around 20 years old, and rarely enter the palace at the age of 30. The reason is that like scholars, age is also an important factor in determining whether eunuchs will become successful.

Take Ma Tang himself as an example. He entered the palace at the age of eight, entered the Nei Shutang to study at the age of nine, and set up a supervisor in the office to copy documents at the age of fourteen, and was promoted to the supervisor at the age of nineteen. Four years later, he also promoted the supervisor of the seal and ribbon. Since then, he has risen to the top and has reached its current status.

In the palace, the younger you are, the higher your plasticity will be. Those who can study in the Nei Book Hall are generally reserved candidates for the twenty-four supervisors. Among them, the best ones have great opportunities and it is not a dream to join the Silijian.

Those who enter the palace after adulthood have no such good luck in the palace. Generally, people like this are not valued after entering the palace. Most of them are arranged to do some hard work such as cleaning and washing at the bottom. Unless they are literate and literate, they are impossible to become eunuchs, let alone be included in the Sili Prison.

For example, Wang Zhen, a great king of the Yingzong dynasty, entered the palace in nearly fifty years old. With his talent, he gained the trust of Emperor Yingzong and eventually dominated the world. If Wang Zhen didn't know a big word, an old man who was about to die would not have such good luck.

Of course, if you are younger and meet a noble person, you are smart enough, and you may be able to make a fortune. But you are thirty years old when you enter the palace, and there is almost no possibility of such a person being developed.

Even if there is a noble person who is willing to support him, he will be afraid that he will not be far from death when he can stand alone. Therefore, the great men will not choose the age of the people who are training the people below.

It is not an exaggeration to say that one can stand out from such a person.

However, how many outstanding people are there in this world?

After Ma Tang has been in the palace for so many years, he has clearly understood the inner paths. At this age of Pang Bao, after entering the palace, he is afraid that he will just sweep the floor and pour the toilet.

So he tapped the table lightly and said to Pang Bao lightly: "You are willing to go to the palace to serve. Our family is very comforted, but now the palace is full of people and all the responsibilities are all incomplete. If you go in, it is afraid it will be difficult to arrange it. According to our family, you will still be able to do it here. If you have any good errands in the future, our family will think of you."

Ma Tang said this very well. Unexpectedly, Pang Bao had made up his mind, so he hurriedly took out a silver note from his arms and handed it respectfully: "I know that this is not easy to deal with, so I'd better ask my father-in-law to worry!"

Ma Qijin came forward to take it and transferred it to Ma Tang.

Ma Tang glanced at it and found that it was a silver note of 1100 taels. He put it on the table casually, looked up at Pang Bao again.

One hundred taels of silver are not a small amount. Pang Bao has been a good dealer in his own tax supervisor for more than three years. If he counts on the big picture, no matter how much he makes, he is afraid that it will be the only number.

Now, he gave all the money to himself just to help him enter the palace. His thoughts were just a desperate situation, and he could say that he was ruthless. In short, he was a character.

In order to be a husband, not only did he have to give himself a lifeline, but he also tried his best to take out all his savings. Pang Bao made Ma Tang Gao look at him.

"You know how to be a human being, but our family is afraid that we don't have that much face. Besides, it's okay to enter the palace, but it's difficult to find a job. You are from our family. If you enter the palace as a regular cleaning, our family will feel shameless." Ma Tang looked embarrassed. It was indeed a bit difficult to deal with, but it might be that he did this on purpose.

"The young man knows that this matter is difficult, so he dares to ask his father-in-law to take care of him. If the young man can make a name for himself in the future, he will not forget his father-in-law's great kindness!" Pang Bao was very tactful.

"He is a kind person."

Ma Tang chuckled, had an idea in his heart, got up and walked to Pang Bao, nodded slightly, and said, "Well, because you have done a lot of things for our family in the past few years, our family will help you... But it's not that our family is unwilling to do its best, but the various responsibilities in the palace are full of money. Let's do this, let's arrange for you to do things with the imperial concubine. What do you think?"

Where can I do things?!

Upon hearing this, Pang Bao immediately said excitedly: "Thank you, my father-in-law, for your conscience!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he knelt in front of Ma Tang with a "thump". He made Ma Qijin feel pain when he saw it.

"Okay, okay, get up." Ma Tang looked happy and helped Pang Bao up. "After entering the palace, all your luck is your personal business. We can't think of you all the time. In the future, you still need to be smart."

"Don't worry, if you are young, you must do your best when you are in the imperial concubine, and you will never let your father-in-law down!"

Pang Bao was so happy that he wanted to jump up. He had originally gritted his teeth and decided to go to the palace on this road to find a job, but he didn't expect that Eunuch Ma actually arranged for him to go to the imperial concubine. What is this not to give him Pang Bao a great road of wealth!

For a moment, Pang Bao felt that Eunuch Ma was his reborn parents, and secretly swore that if he could be glorious in the future, he would definitely repay Eunuch Ma.

"Okay, don't thank me, you can go on."

"Oh, father-in-law!"

Pang Baogang crossed the gate, but Ma Tang called him again, showing care, and said, "Little Dao Liu from Sizhao Hutong in Jingli is good at craftsmanship. Our family has some connections with him. You can go to him and report our name to avoid suffering too much... After recovering from the injury, our family will make arrangements for you, so you don't have to worry."

"Thank you, my father-in-law!"

Pang Bao felt warm in his heart and hurriedly thanked Ma Tang again.

Ma Tang asked Ma Qijin to send Pang Bao out. After waiting for someone to leave, Ma Tang suddenly became listless again and sat down in a depressed manner. His right hand unconsciously picked up scissors and continued to modify his beard.

After coming out of the tax supervisory office, Pang Bao felt that the world in front of him was spacious, brighter, and the air was extremely fresh than before.

This is a desperate bet. In order to make a name for himself and to be as glorious as Eunuch Ma, Pang Bao really took the initiative.

Fortunately, God pays off for those who are determined, and a hundred taels of silver is not spent in vain. Eunuch Ma gave himself a great fortune, and he needs to cherish it well and work harder.

But that knife...

Thinking of the process of purging the body that I heard in the past, Pang Bao trembled for no reason.

Don't be afraid, this knife will not be in vain!

Pang Bao cheered up and took a deep breath. He was not from Tianjin, but from Henan, so he had no worries or possessions in Tianjin. All his savings became the silver bill in Eunuch Ma's hand.

But I wonder if my cousin Zhang Cha had ever come?

If I could hurry up, I might be able to see him in the capital.

Thinking of Ma Qijin's explanation just now, it would be fine to stay in Tianjin, and thinking that his cousin in his hometown was going to Jizhou, Pang Bao simply went to the carriage and Mazhan to buy tickets to Beijing. If he was lucky, he might be able to meet his cousin in front of Jing.

In Jinghai County, Zhang Cha hesitated for a long time before gritting his teeth and sitting at the noodle stall.

On the table next door, Wei Liangchen had drunk all the noodle soup. He was holding a few silver beans given to him by Xu Xianchun. I wonder if he would give them back to them.
