Chapter five hundred and forty seventh: the young prisoner has ghosts
A person who shouldn't be there appears in the wine cellar. This person is also a young prisoner from the Internal Affairs Prison.
The eunuchs in the palace are under the management of the Twelve Eunuchs. The eunuchs and young eunuchs are also considered prominent figures in the palace.
It is a bit unusual for a respectable person to personally go to the wine cellar to pick up the wine.
Liu Chengfeng sent Zhou Chen away, and Liu Chengfeng began to read the information about the young prisoner from the Internal Affairs Prison.
Wu Hong entered the palace in the third year of Hongzhi and first cleaned up the eunuchs for the eunuchs of the shrine. In the fifth year of Hongzhi, he entered the inner study hall and then transferred to the shrine supervisor. In the eleventh year of Hongzhi, he directly sat on the throne of the young eunuch.
.
Liu Chengfeng looked at Wu Hong's information carefully, and he admired Wu Hong in his heart. The palace supervisor was responsible for cleaning the palace. To put it bluntly, they were just a group of sanitation workers. They were the least promising among the twelve supervisors.
Regarding work, it is said that most of the people who enter here are eunuchs who have no future or are punished. Anyway, their whole life's future can only be accompanied by that broom and rag.
It can be said that this Wu Hong only worked as the supervisor of the shrine for two years, and then he entered the inner study. This inner study is a very powerful thing. If placed in the outer court, it is equivalent to the Hanlin Academy. Once someone has a promising future, first of all
That is to say, you go into the study room to study first, and after you have read the books and gained knowledge, you can then assign them.
In other words, in the fifth year of Hongzhi, Wu Hong met a noble man who supported him. This noble man must be one of the few big shots in the palace. The reason is very simple. At that time, Wu Hong was already old.
At the age of twenty-one, a twenty-one-year-old
Eunuchs. Logically speaking, they cannot go to the inner study room to study, because the inner study room also has its own rules, that is, the young eunuchs who are born at the age of 20 are selected. That is to say, under normal circumstances, a person who is over 20 years old
Ten-year-old eunuchs are not allowed to enter the study room to study.
But Wu Hong went in. This means that the noble man Wu Hong met must be a big shot in the palace with powerful eyes and hands.
Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but think about it.
There are eunuchs who can even change the rules of the study room. There are at most two or three in the palace, one is the Royal Horse Eunuch and the other is the Ceremony Eunuch. The Royal Horse Eunuch’s eunuch has changed hands several times. Logically speaking, if Wu Hong is in the Royal Horse Eunuch
There is someone in charge, and his backer has fallen several times.
Under such circumstances, not only could he study with peace of mind during this period, but he could also become a shrine eunuch and a young eunuch. This was obviously impossible. To complete his transformation from a sweeping eunuch to a young eunuch, no one could do it for a long time.
A big tree with deep roots will not work.
At least in the palace, this person was not only extremely powerful, but he had also been sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai for seven or eight years from the fifth year of Hongzhi to the present. He had always been a decisive figure in the palace.
Liu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes.
This person is Xiao Jing. The current emperor has always been distant from eunuchs, and is very strict in the management of the palace, but there is one person who is an exception, and it is undoubtedly Xiao Jing.
Xiao Jing promoted this person since the fifth year of Hongzhi. He must have trusted and liked Wu Hong very much. From this, it can be concluded that Wu Hong should be Xiao Jing's confidant.
There is another supporting evidence for this reason.
In the inner palace, the imperial eunuch controls the military and horses, and the ceremonial eunuch is almost the head of all eunuchs. But when it comes to the most lucrative place, it is none other than the inner eunuch, who is the first-class in the palace.
The first Youshui Yamen was responsible for repairing palaces, building palaces, and
To control various expenses in the palace, at least what Liu Chengfeng knows about, there are many eunuchs who actually want to work in the imperial prison when their future is hopeless, because here you may not be able to make a career.
But it is enough to make you extremely rich.
Eunuchs also love money, they are crazy about it, so I don’t know how many people are trying to squeeze into this inner-official prison. With Wu Hong’s qualifications, even in his thirties, he can sit in the junior prison of the inner-official prison.
How could it be possible if it wasn't because he was Xiao Jing's confidant?
Promotion in the outer court is all about qualifications. If you don't have enough qualifications, no matter how favored you are, you will only be disappointed. However, promotion in the inner court depends on your popularity. If your connections are not strong enough, you can only stand aside.
Xiao Jing was willing to give Wu Hong the position of Young Prisoner, which shows Xiao Jing's trust in Wu Hong.
Liu Chengfeng's eyes narrowed, feeling more and more suspicious. Xiao Jing's confidant eunuch suddenly appeared in the wine cellar and personally led people in to move the wine jars. Thinking about it, it was incredible.
"Go and invite Eunuch Wu Hong and Wu in."
Liu Chengfeng used the word "please", but there was no hint of politeness in his tone.
After a while, Eunuch Wu was invited in. Wu Hong took good care of himself. At first glance, he looked pretty and his eyes were so charming. If he had changed into women's clothes, he would have been so charming.
He is a woman, Wu Hong
When he came in, he was not shivering like Zhou Chen. After all, he was a man who had seen the world. After he came in, he saluted generously and had a smile on his face, but his smile didn't seem to be fake.
Make people feel friendly.
"Master, my servant is here."
A very ordinary sentence, when spoken in his mouth, had a different meaning, as if it was a greeting between friends he had not seen for many years.
Liu Chengfeng narrowed his eyes and glanced at Wu Hong, feeling a little curious about this eunuch. This man was quite a figure. He raised his hand and said, "Eunuch Wu, please sit down."
Wu Hong didn't hesitate at all, he sat down with a smile, and then said: "It's midnight, the master must be working hard, and these servants in the palace are really born to serve people, but they don't know what to do with their eyes.
Why don't you say hello and ask the imperial kitchen to send you some food?"
There was some concern in his words. But Liu Chengfeng smiled slightly: "Don't bother with this. Eunuch Wu must be aware of what I am asking Eunuch Wu to do. Let's just open the skylight and speak openly. Wu
Isn’t it possible that my father-in-law is very busy in the internal prison?"
Wu Hong smiled, but did not have any special expression, and said in a calm tone: "In the Internal Affairs Bureau, there are times when things are said too much, and sometimes there are too few things said. But then again, in fact, the Internal Affairs Bureau
The prisons are not as good as before. Think about it, sir. Now that the emperor is wise and practices frugality, the expenses in the palace will naturally be reduced again and again. To be honest, the internal officials and prisons are much less busy than before.
few."
Liu Chengfeng followed his words and continued to ask: "So Mr. Wu has nothing to do, so he just goes to the wine cellar to pick up wine, right?"
Wu Hong must have understood the underlying meaning of Liu Chengfeng's words, but his expression did not change, and he still said with a smile: "It's no wonder that the Zajia family is quite leisurely, and secondly, yesterday
It's the empress's birthday, and the whole palace is in a mess. The Za family is doing this just to share the worries of Eunuch Xiao, right?
?Eunuch Xiao is hosting this banquet, and has to take care of every detail. The Za family feels sorry for his old man, so he naturally wants to go to his house to help him. It just so happens that there is no manpower available in the imperial dining room at that time, and other supervisors are too busy to do anything.
So Eunuch Xiao made a note and asked the Za family to carry out the drinks."
Although he said this in a joking tone, he was also defending himself.
However, Liu Chengfeng felt that Wu Hong was by no means as simple as picking up wine. However, there was no evidence at this time and he could not bite randomly. He smiled slightly and said: "So, Eunuch Wu and Eunuch Xiao are very close?"
When he arrived at Xiao Jing, Wu Hong immediately became solemn and said seriously: "Who is Eunuch Xiao? How dare the Miscellaneous Family to reach out to him? I will be satisfied if I can serve him in front of and behind him."
Although he said this, he admitted the close relationship between him and Xiao Jing.
Liu Chengfeng continued: "Then why did Eunuch Xiao let you pick up the wine? Could it be that he was in the wine cellar and asked you to do something important?"
This was a spy. It was obvious that Wu Hong heard it. His smile disappeared briefly, and then he sneered and said seriously: "Liu Qianshi, what do you mean by this? Do you mean that the wine
Was it poisoned by the Za family?"
Liu Chengfeng didn't say a word, but looked at him coldly, acquiescing.
Wu Hong became even more angry and said with a stern smile: "Who is the Zajia? There are officials, supervisors and young eunuchs in the hall. What is the benefit of doing this to the Zajia? Liu Qianshi, the Zajia respects you. I have heard of you arresting gangsters a lot."
Now you want to spit on someone about something, and the Za family is not someone to be trifled with, so how can we allow you to bite at will."
Liu Chengfeng looked at him silently, paying attention to his expression. He suddenly thought that Mou Bin had warned Xiao Jing that when he heard that the palace was going to pursue the investigation, his hands could not help but tremble. Now thinking of Wu Hong,
I can't help but feel that there must be many secrets between Xiao Jing and Wu Hong.
He then smiled and said: "Eunuch Wu, there is no need to be angry. Since it's not the case, then it's not the case. Why should he be so angry? Mr. Liu is also acting according to orders. It stands to reason that anyone who comes into contact with alcohol will be
It’s a rule to ask questions.”
After saying this, Wu Hong finally calmed down a little and said: "The Zajia family has never touched the wine. Although they entered the wine cellar, the jars of wine have not been touched at all by the Zajia family. If you don't believe it, you can ask
Q, the sealing mud on it is also intact. Besides, Zajia Ruodang
If he really wanted to poison him, how could he appear in the wine cellar? Liu Qian had always been very clear about everything, so he would not have wronged the Zajia family. As for going to the wine cellar, it was the Secretary Li who sent a note to the Zajia family, and the Zajia family could not do anything.
I am acting under orders, if Liu Qianshi feels suspicious, feel free to go and investigate."
He looked upright, and there really wasn't any flaw in him.
But Liu Chengfeng felt that this Eunuch Wu must not be a simple person, and there must be many unknown things behind him.
