The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 273
In fact, there are various factions within the Supervisor of Rituals, besides the palm print eunuch, there are also four eunuchs holding pens, and Xiao Jing is one of them.

It's just that Deng Yuan and Xiao Jing have never been familiar with each other, so it's not easy to say this.

"Deng Gonggong don't need to worry, I think Xiao Gong can't see Li Guang being so domineering."

An enemy's enemy is a friend, and Li Guang's arrogance has already threatened Xiao Jing's status, so Xiao Jing will suppress Li Guang just to protect himself.

If Deng Yuan jumped out at this time and was willing to be a pawn, then Xiao Jing must be willing to see it.

What's more, in history, Xiao Jing lived to be 90 years old, and he held a high position and authority.But Li Guang was forced to commit suicide, and he was not at the same level as Eunuch Xiao.

Xie Shen's self-confidence comes more from the "big data" of history.

Xiao Jing, an old monster, was able to serve as the eunuch in charge of ceremonies four times, which can be described as abnormal.

Such a person is definitely superior, and it is absolutely right for Deng Yuan to hug his thigh.

On the other hand, Li Guang, the reason why he is so powerful is entirely because he offered alchemy to the emperor.The status obtained in this way is not stable at all, and the honor and disgrace are all in the mind of the emperor.However, Li Guang has no self-knowledge, and he is arrogant and domineering all day long, offending many people.

Now that he is powerful, no one dares to say anything, but once he loses power, everyone will definitely push him down.

Deng Yuan clenched his fists and said: "This Li Guang is relying on the emperor's favor, indeed even Xiao Gong is not in his eyes."

"That's all right. As long as Eunuch Deng is willing to work for Xiao Gong, a mere Li Guang won't be able to cause any big waves."

Xie Shenken's move to Eunuch Deng was entirely out of Liu Wen's face, or in the face of their "cooperation".

Although the young man knew that Liu Wen was just a puppet agent, he was indeed the one who was directly responsible for the contact.

Another important point is that most of the famous Quan eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty also served as the admirals of Dongchang.In short, it means having real power in your hands.

Although Li Guang was favored by the emperor, he was nothing more than an official, and he didn't even have the strength to protect himself.

In this case, there is absolutely no need for Deng Yuan to show weakness as a horse eunuch.

Deng Yuan calmed down a bit, and then asked some more about Eunuch Liu's current situation.

Xie Shen could tell that Eunuch Deng really thought of Liu Wen's well-being, and he didn't put on any airs.

Deng Yuan was awakened by Xie Shen, and was eager to make arrangements, so he thanked him and left the Imperial Academy Office.

After finally dismissing Deng Yuan, Xie Shen finally heaved a sigh of relief.

To be honest, he didn't want to get involved in the eunuchs' fight.

Whether it's Li Guang or Deng Yuan, as long as Xie Shen's vital interests are not affected, he doesn't bother to take care of it.

Officials of the Hanlin Academy, large and small, returned to the office one after another to devote themselves to busy work.

Xie Shen took a sip of tea and began to inspect and supervise the work of his subordinates.

The ministers and ministers were busy giving lectures to the nobles, and Mr. Wang Hua was not around. This burden naturally fell on Xie Shen's shoulders, and he had to pick it even if he didn't want to.

But Xie Shen had been busy all day, and walked out of the Hanlin Academy's office wearily, and was about to get into the sedan chair when he saw the eunuch Deng Yuan standing in front of the Imperial Academy's gate again.

It's just that this time Eunuch Deng's complexion is obviously much better.

"Xie Xiuzhuan's plan is really ingenious, Xiao Gong has already agreed to make decisions for our family."

Eunuch Deng bowed his hand to Xie Shen to thank him, and Xie Shen also bowed his hand to return the gift.

"This is something to be expected. As long as Eunuch Deng does what Xie said before, he can't say that he can bring down Li Guang immediately. At least he doesn't have to be afraid of him anymore."

Hearing this, Deng Yuan said with emotion: "In the final analysis, the honor and disgrace of us slaves depends on the emperor's word. Even Xiao Gong can't escape this circle. Before our family always thought that entering the supervisor of ceremonies is the most important thing. It's a great honor, but now it seems that if you can release a guarding eunuch like Liu Gong, then you can live freely."

Xie Shen didn't know how to evaluate Deng Yuan's words, so he remained silent for a while.

"I came to our house this time to tell Xie Xiuzhuan that Liu Gong's friend is our family's friend, and he will be useful to our family in the future. Xie Xiuzhuan please speak up."

Xie Shen was overjoyed when he heard the words.

He has many good friends in the Beijing-Chinese official camp, such as Xie Qian and Wang Hua.

But in the inner palace, there is no help.

This is extremely unreasonable.

You know, in the history of the Ming Dynasty, most of the powerful officials who made achievements had an ally in the inner palace.

The most obvious examples are Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao.

These two people, one inside and one outside, managed the court affairs in an orderly manner.

The role of eunuchs is not only to convey the news of the palace ban, but more importantly, to monitor the movements of political opponents.

Many things that are inconvenient for foreign ministers would be much easier if they were done by eunuchs.

Now that Deng Yuan took the initiative to show his favor to Xie Shen, the young man had no reason to refuse.

Xie Shen is a pragmatist, the most important thing is the value of a person.Therefore, he will not discriminate against eunuchs like other sour and clean civil servants, and will make friends with them when the time is right.

Although the eunuchs of the Royal Horse Supervisor can't get in touch with too many core government affairs, they are also a help to some extent.

With the strength of Xie Shen's current official position, there is no way to make friends with the boss of the Supervisor of Rituals, so it is better to take the line of Deng Yuan first.

However, Xie Shen's identity was compiled by the Imperial Academy after all, and he is a clear stream among the clean streams. If others know that Xie Shen and the inner eunuch are very close, they will be easily impeached.

Therefore, he will not get too close to Deng Yuan in public, so as to avoid many unnecessary troubles.

Deng Yuan obviously understood the truth, coughed and said, "Don't worry, Xie Xiuzhuan, our family has a house in Xiaoyongfang. Xie Xiuzhuan met to discuss matters."

Xie Shen nodded.

It would be much more convenient to have a meeting place, otherwise, Xie Shen, who always met in the Hanlin Academy, would not be able to bear the gossip.

"Eunuch Deng Gao Yi."

Eunuch Deng has considered Xie Shen so thoughtfully, even taking into account the thin-skinned reputation of scholars, Xie Shen's praise is naturally sincere.

For Xie Shen, compiling the "Hui Dian" is the most important thing right now.But if you look a little farther, it is obviously more useful to cultivate a good relationship with the little prince.

According to the normal historical trajectory, next year will be the tenth year of Hongzhi, and the eight-year-old crown prince Zhu Houzhao will officially leave the cabinet to study under the imperial edict.

The emperor is bound to choose a perfect teacher team for the little prince composed of famous ministers and Confucians in the court, and most of the teachers who teach the prince are Confucian things.

However, it is not enough to have great Confucian officials, the emperor will also select some young people to serve as lecturers in the East Palace.

This is a close minister of the Eastern Palace in the absolute sense, not only to lecture the prince, but also to accompany the reading errand, which is absolutely impossible when you are old.
