In the palace, the emperor, concubines, young princes, and princesses all belong to the master.
The maids, eunuchs, and bodyguards are servants and bodyguards.
Feng Lin... If he wants to have more eyes in the palace, the best... most suitable candidates are eunuchs and maids.
Most guards can only follow fixed patrol routes and cannot leave their posts freely, and most of them rotate in three shifts. Under such circumstances, using guards as informants is too restrictive and can only be used as an alternative.
Among the palace maids and eunuchs, if the palace maids are not old enough to be released from the palace, they are generally not allowed to leave the palace.
Only eunuchs, who sometimes need to go out of the palace to purchase goods or do some things for the nobles they serve, can get permission to leave the palace and travel.
The target chosen by Feng Lin was a young eunuch who served Concubine Li as a rough messenger.
In the lively gambling house, there are people's voices.
Most of the rogues in the east of Bianjing City are concentrated here.
Yan Xiaoqi, who originally left the palace and was responsible for helping Concubine Li purchase some specialties from her hometown, has now lost her gambling skills.
He originally won money, but because of greed, he not only put all the money he won into it, but also lost all his principal. And the principal amount was originally the money he went out to buy from the palace.
Now, he owes the casino a lot of money.
When he woke up, he was hugged by the strong men on guard at the casino and thrown into a deserted alley.
Then the big men retreated spontaneously.
"You owe a lot of money, and you won't come out yet." Feng Lin's appearance changed again at this time.
He looks extremely ordinary now.
It's the kind of face that would be immediately forgotten if thrown into a crowd.
Of course, this is a temporary vest, and there is no need to even have a name.
Feng Lin didn't intend to use this skin to make too many articles.
As for meeting Yan Xiaoqi on the grounds that he doesn’t understand the monk’s vest?
This is absolutely impossible!
It's okay to secretly conspire with Gong Mei and Liu E.
If you stand up blatantly and join in their evil deeds, won't you destroy your character?
You must know that people don't know this kind of thing about personality. No matter how dirty you are underneath, if people think you are good, you are good.
But if it's not covered up and the dirty stuff leaks out, and everyone sees it and knows the truth...then it's all over.
Yan Xiaoqi mustered up a little courage and deliberately suppressed her not-so-shrill voice to make it shrill, making herself look more like a eunuch.
"Our family is a talented person in the palace. We are not lucky today, so we will keep accounts for now. When my father-in-law leaves the palace someday and has more money, it will not be too late to pay back the money." Yan Xiaoqi studied and remembered, The postures of those great eunuchs were somewhat domineering.
When Feng Lin heard this, he burst into laughter: "Little eunuch! Do you think that our gambling house is open for vegetarians? That the person worshiping in the lobby is not the God of Wealth, but a living Bodhisattva? Keeping accounts? I owe you for the time being. Get off? Who do you think you are?"
After saying that, he raised his foot and kicked Yan Xiaoqi away.
Most people are cheap people.
This is not a prejudice, but if you don't know something powerful, you won't be smart enough to figure out your position.
Obviously this is the case for Yan Xiaoqi.
Everyone thinks that eunuchs are difficult to mess with, but it depends on when they were eunuchs and what level they were.
Eunuchs were good at power, especially in the Han and Ming dynasties.
As for the Song Dynasty...I'm sorry, eunuchs really have no status.
Even the most famous eunuch Tong Guan had to rely on and support Cai Jing in order to stabilize his power.
The Song Dynasty was the Song Dynasty of literati.
This is especially true for the great eunuchs who stand at the top. Yan Xiaoqi is just a little eunuch of no great rank. How powerful and arrogant can he be?
Stepping on Yan Xiaoqi's chest, Feng Lin said fiercely: "Little eunuch! You'd better know how much weight you have. You borrowed a total of more than three hundred taels in my casino today. If I borrow this Please tell the Supervisor of Ceremonies about the matter, or simply... bring it to the Yushitai, what do you think you will do?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Xiaoqi trembled all over, and there was an unconcealable smell of urine in his crotch.
Feng Lin retracted his foot with some frustration, and then kicked the soil aside.
This little eunuch was too timid. He was just trying to scare him, but he actually pissed himself.
Although this kind of courage is easy to control, it does not work if expected.
"It's a pity that I have no idea about the interpersonal relationships and various rules in the palace. Otherwise, I could just make a clone of this little eunuch and go check it out myself." Feng Lin thought about it and decided to change his plan a little bit. .
So, he threw out a bag of gold and landed at Yan Xiaoqi's feet.
Bits of gold nuggets spilled out from the pocket, blooming in the sunlight with an alluring, hell-inducing halo.
"There is some gold here, you can take it. Your debt at the gambling house can also be written off. But... you have to do something for me."
"After it's done, I'll give you ten times the gold. If it doesn't work out, the evidence that you borrowed money from the casino before and made a pledge will be sent directly to the home of a certain censor who is not very successful. I think..." No one will refuse free credit." Feng Lin's handling methods can be described as simple and crude.
But to deal with an ordinary little eunuch like Yan Xiaoqi, this method is the most effective.
Grasp his weakness, and then use benefits to inspire his courage and courage. This may be of some use.
Yan Xiaoqi looked at the gold nuggets, and the fear and panic in his eyes began to slowly dissipate.
He stood up tremblingly, looked at Feng Lin, lowered his head deeply, and then whispered: "Young...what can I do for you?"
Feng Lin smiled slightly and waved: "Come here with your ears attached!"
After the explanation, Feng Lin watched Yan Xiaoqi carry the bag with the gold nuggets and flew towards another place without stopping too much.
Yan Xiaoqi was certainly not the only candidate he selected. It was just because of the special position of the other party that Feng Lin paid special attention to it.
In fact, in order to be more secure, whether it is the imperial doctor of the imperial hospital or the bodyguard. Feng Lin has chosen the right candidate.
And through these people, Feng Lin gradually and secretly extended his tentacles into the palace.
Of course, just in case, Feng Lin asked Yan Xiaoqi every now and then to ask about the people and things he had come into contact with, as well as to observe his usual behavior, movements, and habits.
Be ready at any time to enter the palace in person to replace Yan Xiaoqi.
As for whether Guo Huai and others exist, Feng Lin also has the answer.
"Sure enough! This is some world about the collection of legends of the Song Dynasty. There should be some for the time being. The Yang family generals may also have the Seven Heroes and Five Righteousnesses, etc. Those who exist in the story are perfectly integrated into history, and they are real here. existence. It’s just that stories are just stories, and the world is the world. Stories can edit a person’s good and evil without any reason according to the author’s preferences, and even give and sacrifice without reason. But behind the reality, there are behaviors that can no longer be understood. Everything must have its origin and origin.”
"Guo Huai is actually the emperor's personal attendant, and Chen Lin has been an old eunuch for many years. She has been serving in the palace since Zhao Kuangyin. This is very interesting!"
