The fake eunuch who lurked in the palace

"It's here."

Feeling the movement around him, Wen Yu rubbed his head and muttered.

"The Confucian scholars organized the event and put pressure on the palace. I can't go and watch the fun." Li Yi tugged Wen Wei's hair.

"I'm done, I'll be back as soon as possible."

"Ah."

Wen Yu didn't open her eyes and only responded vaguely.

Li Yi smiled at her, tucked her in, and left the Xuanhua Palace.

"Sir, the water in the early morning is most suitable for making tea. Please go upstairs and talk about it." Tang Zhenghao said loudly in the teahouse in the east of the city.

"Are you here to stop me?" In the carriage, the white-haired old man opened his eyes.

"Sir, you are a truly noble person. This holy will will not shake the foundation of the country. If you participate, you will only harm yourself."

The old man opened the curtain and saw that the person blocking the car was motionless. He pursed his lips and got out of the carriage with a stick.

"Sir, please." Tang Zhenghao held the apprenticeship ceremony.

The old man snorted and walked past him upstairs.

After shaking his head slightly, Tang Zhenghao went to help him, but the old man waved him away.

Still so grumpy, Tang Zhenghao lowered his eyes and muttered in his heart.

"What's going on with the old guy? Lu Yuhu is here?" As soon as he went upstairs, the old man lost his previous elegance and shouted at Tang Zhenghao.

Tang Zhenghao was not surprised. Teacher Qu was his grandfather's classmate. If the two of them played together and still haven't broken up, they must be similar in some way.

"Teacher, grandpa has left Zijing City." Tang Zhenghao did not hide anything from Qu Ji.

"Leaved Zijing City?"

Qu Ji was stunned, "What do you mean, old guy? Out of sight, out of mind? Are you used to living a leisurely life and are you timid?"

Qu Ji opened his mouth and asked a series of questions.

Tang Zhenghao stood aside silently and waited until he finished speaking before speaking: "Teacher, you know grandpa better than I do. What kind of temperament does he have?"

"Tell me about it." Qu Ji sat down on the chair, all the emotions on his face were gone, his movements were elegance, and his image was completely different from before.

"After Da Qian's reform, the teacher also saw the changes. The disbandment of the harem seemed like the Queen Mother could not tolerate people, and it was swollen. But if you look deeper, you will see that this is a historic step for Da Qian."

"The daily consumption of thousands of concubines is astonishing, which also leads to the need for the inner palace to constantly add eunuchs and maids."

"If these expenses can be eliminated, the internal treasury can be filled up a lot."

"The most important thing is that the Queen Mother will use this to re-establish the rules. There will be no drafts in the future, and the number of concubines beside the emperor cannot exceed ten."

"This will not only greatly reduce expenses, but most importantly..."

Tang Zhenghao paused and looked a little more solemn, "The Queen Mother is already opening a women's academy. The number of people around the emperor cannot reach ten years old. Ordinary people, who dares to go beyond that?"

"Without shortcuts, those parents will no longer regard women as objects for sale."

"Teacher, you often praise Xin'er for her talent and intelligence, which is unparalleled among her peers. This shows that women are not inferior to men."

"They shouldn't be just accessories."

"Teacher, if all people in the world were equal, what kind of grand scene would that be?"

Qu Ji fell silent, "This road is not easy to walk. How can deep-rooted ideas be overthrown overnight?"

"So we need someone to take the lead. The Queen Mother has the courage and skill. Teacher, do you still want to go?"

With a long sigh, Qu Ji stood up and said, "I won't let you young people mess with me anymore. I owed Lin Huai a favor in the past and saved his life."

"Student understands." Tang Zhenghao bowed and saluted.

Tang Zhenghao did not return until Qu Ji was sent out of Zijing City.

"Commander, there is a message from Minister Tang, asking you to serve wine tomorrow."

"What?" Li Yi raised his eyebrows, "In the clear sky, the blackmail has started!"

"He said he persuaded Qu Ji to leave." Yin Cheng said silently.

Li Yi blinked twice. He had heard of Qu Ji. He was very knowledgeable, but he didn't like officialdom. He traveled around and loved to give advice.

Most of the officials in Daqian were favored by him.

In the Tang family, both Tang's father's generation and Tang Zhenghao's generation were enlightened and taught by him.

Looking elegant, but getting angry, that means shaking your fists.

Liang Huai could actually find someone? Are you still asking?

"Go to Zuixianfang to order wine."

Li Yi said quietly, he had heard of Qu Ji, but never seen him. If he punched him, the old guy would never let him get his way.

The juniors of the Tang family are all taught by him.

Li Yi also pointed to Qu Ji to help him persuade Mr. Tang.

Judging from Qu Ji's deeds, Li Yi concluded that he was an enlightened person.

Furthermore, after the capital is moved, the women's academy will merge with the men's academy. The scholars will be arrogant and will inevitably protest. This requires someone who can calm down the situation.

Qu Ji, he really dares to fight!

Make sure to keep those people in good condition.

No matter from which aspect, Li Yi could not afford to offend Qu Ji.

"Commander, we didn't expect that Liang Huai could mobilize people."

Seeing Li Yi looking at him, Yin Cheng immediately straightened his back and said solemnly.

"I will fine you three coins." Seeing Li Yi's eyes not moving, Yin Cheng spoke in pain.

"Only three dollars?" Li Yi raised his eyes.

"Five coins!" Yin Cheng stretched out his hand tremblingly.

"That's right." Li Yi patted Yin Cheng's shoulder and praised with a smile on his face.

What a stupid thing, I really think his pockets are easy to pick out!

"Let's go, don't keep people waiting." Li Yi looked in the direction of the palace and got on the carriage first.
