The Best Fake Eunuch

For Xiao Chen, Gong Shouli is really a perfect enemy.

First of all, his position is high enough, the eunuch who is in charge of the ceremony, although his rank is not as good as Xiao Chen's, his authority is actually much greater than Xiao Chen's.

Xiao Chen, the first-rank eunuch, is just a false title, more like the emperor was joking with him.

Second-rank Shangshu is also a false title. Although the governor is usually a second-rank title, but because he is already a first-rank eunuch, the Ministry of Officials has not given him a formal appointment, so his governor is more like a temporary one.

The two are evenly matched, enough to compete with each other.

Secondly, Gong Shouli is irritable, greedy for money, lustful, uneducated, narrow-minded, lacks great wisdom, and has a lot of small-minded thieves. He is certainly not a good thing, but he belongs to the kind that is relatively easy to deal with.

Xiao Chen has been fighting with him for so long, basically he has not suffered any losses, so he can't say how well he handles it, at least he knows this person very well, and he knows himself and the enemy.

Moreover, Xiao Chen has already successfully planted two spies beside Gong Shouli. Basically, every move of Gong Shouli is under Xiao Chen's control. Issues.

Li Wanjiang and even the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty knew that Xiao Chen would not deal with him, and this situation was obviously something that many people liked...

All in all, Gong Shouli, the deadly enemy, is actually very important to Xiao Chen, and the significance of his existence is far greater than that of a friend.

Xiao Chen knew that this guy started to suffer from leg pain every summer, and when it was severe, he couldn't even move and could only rest in bed.

Li Wanjiang was already a little dissatisfied with him, if he was exempted directly by using his illness as an excuse, it would be a very bad thing for Xiao Chen...

He didn't want to watch this kind of thing happen, so he kindly came to deliver medicine to him. He only hoped that he would be healthy and healthy to help the emperor with bad things...do things.

Another purpose is to bring Xiao Lizi and Xiao Fengzi to have a secret talk.

It is inconvenient for him to have direct contact with the two of them now, and he has no chance to meet them alone, so he has to create an opportunity...

Or could he just send two plasters?

After leaving the palace, he went straight to the Jiangdong Prince's Mansion to bid farewell, Li Shi ordered someone to prepare some food and wine, and left Xiao Chen for a drink, which was regarded as seeing him off.

"Xiao Chen, I didn't greet you when you came back. This drink is all included. You can drink if you can, and eat if you don't. Let's chat." Li Shidao.

"Oh hello, it's really not easy to eat your prince's meal!" Xiao Chen picked up his chopsticks and glanced at the four dishes on the table, "I said, prince, the food and drink in your palace is a bit too shabby, right? There are no delicacies from mountains and seas, where can I get my chopsticks?"

It doesn’t matter if the wine is rice wine, but these four side dishes are indeed a bit simple, a plate of broad beans, a plate of cold radish shreds, a plate of tofu with sesame oil and shallots, and the only meat dish is a few sliced ​​salted duck eggs?

Ordinary people's home hospitality dishes are much better than this one!

"Hmph! Is it because I'm poor or all of you are too extravagant?" Li Shi picked up a chopstick of shredded radish and put it into his mouth, chewing it sweetly, "I see that you eat too much fish and meat, you should Eat something light and clear your intestines!"

"Oh, that's not good!" Xiao Chen said with a smile, "Could it be that my lord already knows about the fact that I've been greedy for a lot of money?"

"So what if we know?" Li Shi sighed, "Can we still kill you all? In that case, there will be no one inside or outside the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and they will all be ghosts!"

"Well, that's really the case." Xiao Chen also sighed, looking worried about the country and the people.

"Your face was not good when you came in just now, why did you run into trouble when you bid farewell to the emperor?" Li Shiji was good at observing his words and expressions.

"The Emperor didn't hit a snag, but the Empress Dowager did a soft snag!" Xiao Chen knew that the Empress Dowager was very close to Li Shi, but he also said it bluntly.

"Oh? What's going on?" Li Shi was slightly taken aback, apparently ignorant.

Xiao Chen pointed fingers and frothed and described the Queen Mother's words to Li Shi with embellishment. My lord, how can I, as a subject, disrespect the Queen Mother's orders? But I have to obey the emperor's will!

You said what should I do now?

Xiao Chen expressed that he was very embarrassed, because he couldn't tell Li Wanjiang about this matter, no matter how reasonable he was, he was suspected of stirring up the relationship between the emperor and the empress dowager's mother and child.

It may be fine now, but it will be an account in the future!

Of course, the queen mother will definitely talk to the emperor about this matter, but who knows what kind of crap farts your grandma's leggy old hag will let out?

Maybe she will frame up and say that this is what I mean... The problem is that she speaks golden words as soon as she speaks, and I can't justify and refute.

This kind of suffering, I can only talk to you, Wang Ye, for a while.

Li Shiwen couldn't believe it, are you talking nonsense?

"My lord, do I dare to say nonsense on such a big matter? At that time, Wang Jinzhong and a few eunuchs were present. If you don't believe me, just ask them!" Xiao Chen said.

"If that's the case, I'm afraid Father will..." Li Shi frowned, thinking that Father might be very angry.

The Empress Dowager is an act of meddling in politics, a royal taboo!

If she consulted with Li Wanjiang or even gave an order in advance, it would be considered a dispute between mother and child, and it doesn't matter whoever compromises, it is regarded as the emperor's housework.

But the empress dowager bypassed the emperor and talked directly to Xiao Chen, that would be too much.

Xiao Chen is not just an eunuch now, he is also the Governor of Yanyun County! Your queen mother has no right to order him at all.

Moreover, the situation in Yanyun County is so serious and complicated now, but your queen mother suddenly intervenes. Isn't this clearly disregarding the overall situation and embarrassing the emperor?

I'm afraid that the world will not be chaotic. This is it.

My queen mother and grandmother are really old and confused!

Why didn't you discuss this with me in advance? You old man clearly knows that I have a very close relationship with Xiao Chen, and you must also know that the people in my house are in that trading market right now...

Could it be that grandma, you did this on purpose?

Is there any mistake, you old lady, is it your grandson or your nephew?

"My lord, blame me for talking too much, I shouldn't have said these things to you!" Xiao Chen slapped himself lightly as a punishment.

"Hehe, you didn't tell me, but who did you tell?" Li Shi smiled and said, "Don't just talk about it, let's eat food. When do you plan to leave?"

"Early is tomorrow morning, late is tomorrow night." Xiao Chen said.

"Let's wait and see, there is no rush for a day or two." Li Shidao.

"Yes! The minister knows." Xiao Chen hurriedly said.

"Last time you came here in a hurry, I forgot to ask you, is my uncle still in good health?" Li Shi took the initiative to mention Li Wanyun, which was exactly what Xiao Chen wanted.
