"Wang Bai, consul and eunuch of the Palace and Bedroom Department."
"Shou Yan, the consul and eunuch of the Bell and Drum Division."
"Eunuch Kang Zhao, consul of the Banking Bureau."
"Hua Jincheng, the consul and eunuch of the Royal Beast Garden."
"These four eunuchs, who are considered prestigious in the palace, all have contacts with the Jiaofang Secretary."
"Among them, Shouyan of Zhonggusi has the most frequent contacts with Jiaofangsi. He secretly has five lovers in Jiaofangsi alone. It can be said that he will go to Jiaofangsi four or five days a month."
"Hua Jincheng in the Royal Beast Garden is strange. He has serious injuries on his face and has a big burn scar."
"In addition, there are some eunuchs who are not well-known in the palace and occasionally visit us. The list is here."
Li Ruo told the news he had discovered one by one.
Gu Yu did not look at the list of low-ranking eunuchs. Those who could connect with the Xu family would definitely not be the low-ranking eunuchs in the palace.
Gu Yu only managed to catch a few consuls and eunuchs.
The eunuchs of the Palace and Bedroom Department had close contacts with the concubines. Some of the concubines wanted to learn some popular songs and songs in Kyoto and invite them to be pampered. It was not difficult to contact the Jiaofang Secretary through the Palace and Bedroom Department.
The Bell and Drum Division is in charge of ringing bells and drums in the palace and performing miscellaneous operas. It is true that there are frequent contacts with the Jiaofang Division. This position is not very convenient if you want to establish a connection with the Xu family.
The silversmith's bureau is responsible for making gold and silverware. It is reasonable for most women in the Jiaofang Division to contact the silversmith's bureau through various means to obtain some fine jewelry.
There is only this eunuch of the Royal Beast Garden.
Gu Yu thought about it and couldn't figure out why a eunuch consul who was responsible for raising pets had contact with the Jiaofang Division.
Gu Yudao: "The eunuch named Hua Jincheng still has burns on his face?"
Li Ruodao: "Although I have never seen it, according to what the informant described, the burns were quite terrible, and the original face was no longer visible. But he is good at raising animals, and he doesn't need to see the palace when he stays in the Royal Beast Garden.
Your Excellency, and the fact that you pay a lot of filial piety to the housekeeper every year, you turn a blind eye to him staying in the Royal Beast Garden."
Gu Yu wondered about the Royal Beast Garden, but she knew too little about the palace and had no impression of the Royal Beast Garden.
At most, the little eunuch named Derong that the fifth prince liked was in the Royal Beast Garden, which made the fifth prince often run to the Royal Beast Garden.
Gu Yu knocked on the table and said, "I have to go to the palace."
Now that Gu Yu is in charge of Wenhan Division, entering the palace is not as difficult as before.
After handing her the badge, the palace guards took her all the way to Qinzheng Hall.
When several bachelors Wenhan in the side hall saw her coming, they all took it for granted and reported what they were doing.
As soon as Gu Yu saw that the door to the main hall of Qinzheng Palace was closed and all the palace residents had been sent out, he guessed that Shao Wuji was here again.
Gu Yu was not impatient and sat among Bachelor Wenhan, listening to them discuss the recent political affairs in low voices.
The Holy One in the main hall sighed and said: "Once Di Luo dies, you will have no one left in your hands."
Shao Wuji frowned and felt embarrassed.
Di Luo was a complete accident. After the symposium, his younger brother Di Tai became an abandoned son of the Fifth Prince's faction. He was not willing to work for the Fifth Prince anymore, so he fell out with him.
There were too many aristocratic families headed by the Jun family standing behind the Five Princes Faction, and Di Luo could not make an enemy of them.
He once tried to seek refuge with Queen Xu, but Queen Xu was pregnant at the time and was arrogant.
I don't know what happened in the middle, but Empress Xu looked down upon Di Luo, who was like a bereaved dog.
In order to avenge his brother, Di Luo tried to seek refuge with Shao Wuji.
Shao Wuji understood the emperor's intentions in dealing with the aristocratic family, so he accepted Di Luo as his adopted son.
As the minister of Dali Temple, Dilo could easily collect the secrets of aristocratic families for him, and he acted for Dilo so that Dilo could take a breather among the aristocratic families.
Unfortunately, Dilo was too impatient. Less than two years had passed since the symposium, and he was already desperately trying to get his brother out.
After Gu Yu was imprisoned, he became like a grassroots and turned to the noble family again in order to kill Gu Yu.
As a result, neither side could please him, and both sides regarded him as an abandoned son.
Without such a person, it would be difficult for Shao Wuji to collect evidence of the family's secrets for the Lord.
The Minister of Punishment, Juzi Shi, who is now in charge of the prison, is upright and upright, so naturally he will not be in the same league as Shao Wuji.
The newly promoted minister of Dali Temple, Peng Jiao, would not be foolish to work for Shao Wuji after learning from Di Luo's mistakes. Not to mention that Peng Jiao is secretly Gu Yu's man.
Shao Wuji confessed his shortcomings and said: "There is indeed no one available."
He was good at killing enemies in battle and transporting troops to fight, but when it came to political intrigues, Shao Wuji's straight-headedness was in trouble.
The Holy Master said: "Nowadays, the Ministry of Justice, Yushitai, and Dali Temple have checks and balances among the three departments, and the process of handling cases is quite complicated. I want to use the method of thunder to deal with a group of aristocratic families before the land equalization system is implemented nationwide."
If there is a good harvest in Yunlu County and Changzhong County next year, then the land equalization system can be gradually implemented nationwide as soon as the year after next.
In one year, I want to deal with the family...
Shao Wuji said truthfully: "It's too difficult."
The Holy One turned the eighteen pieces in his hand.
He knew it was difficult, but when he thought about the difficulties encountered in the implementation of the equalization system this year, he became anxious.
If the aristocratic families cannot be deterred before the equalization of land is implemented across the country, it will be difficult to implement the equalization of land. Even if it is implemented reluctantly, it will cause chaos in the imperial court.
The Holy Master said to Fu Hai outside: "Summon Gu Yu into the palace."
Fu Hai said: "Back to the Holy Father, Mr. Gu happened to be discussing government affairs with Bachelor Wenhan in the side hall."
The Holy Master's serious face relaxed and said: "Let her come in."
After Gu Yu followed Fu Hai in, he guessed what he was going to say when he saw Shao Wuji, and made a mental draft.
The Holy Master said: "Gu Aiqing, I would like to transfer you back to the Criminal Department to assist Lieutenant Shao in handling a number of cases."
Gu Yu smiled bitterly.
Because he was standing close, the Holy See could see the troubled expression on Gu Yu's face and said, "What objection do you have?"
Gu Yu said: "Your Majesty is in charge of everything. I'm afraid I don't know how I was kicked out by Ju Shangshu in the first place."
The Holy One really didn't know. I only heard that there was some unpleasantness, but I didn't expect that the word "swept out" was even used.
Shao Wuji heard the words from Di Luo, and regardless of whether Gu Yu would be embarrassed here, he said: "Ju Shangshu threw out all the things belonging to Young Master Gu, and poured water on the place where Young Master Gu stood."
Which nobleman in Kyoto is shameless at the moment? Ju Zishi did this. During that time, Gu Yu was really reduced to a laughing stock after dinner. This can be seen from the fact that Di Luo dared to mock Gu Yu in the street.
The Holy Master said angrily: "Ju Zishi has such a bad temper! How dare he do this to you!"
How could he not understand why Gu Yu was kicked out of the Criminal Department? It was not because Gu Yu forcibly cleared his biological mother, Yun Bin! This made the stones in this pit dissatisfied.
Gu Yu said sincerely: "Although I feel a little shameless when I return to the Ministry of Punishment, I will do whatever I can to serve the Holy One."
