The real daughter's life was stolen, and she was reborn and became the best in the capital

Zhuo Qian was still leading people outside to look for someone.

At this time, the people sent by Sun Qi in the palace had already found Song He.

Although Song He was a eunuch, he was a eunuch who held the seal.

The cabinet has a chief minister.

The people below him respectfully call him Zhongtang or Xiangye, and the Imperial Palace also has its own Neixiang.

This Song He is the internal minister of the Imperial Palace.

He is the eunuch who is appointed by the current emperor himself and is a person whom Emperor Zhenguang trusts very much. He and Zheng Qingquan of the cabinet are in charge of the inner palace and the outer court.

Rules set during the reign of Emperor Kangxi.

Any memorial to be submitted to Your Majesty must pass the review of these two people.

In fact, Song He was even more powerful than Zheng Qingquan. After all, he was the one who faced the emperor directly. Even if the cabinet sent a memorial to him, it could not be presented to Emperor Zhenguang without his approval and seal.

In this palace, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the master of the servants.

The tens of thousands of slaves and eunuchs in the palace had to respectfully call him "Master".

Of course, this is an elegant name.

There are also some other titles, such as Song Si Ren and Song Zhong Shi.

Of course, there is also the most common Eunuch Song.

But most of these names are for outsiders to see.

Among the thousands or tens of thousands of slaves and eunuchs in the palace, the one who calls him the most is actually "Ancestor".

The title of ancestor does not refer to how old Song He is.

in contrast.

Song He is actually only in his early forties this year.

Because he was castrated and had his roots cleansed since childhood, and had lived a life of luxury in the palace for decades, he looked much younger than Emperor Zhenguang, who was of the same age.

He doesn't need to report to Emperor Zhenguang every day.

He stayed in the Silijian every day and had a bunch of disciples under him. He didn't even need to personally check every memorial that was sent to him.

Naturally, someone sorted out the imperial edicts for him and sorted them out.

Then, according to the importance of the matters, he would selectively present them to his ancestor, and for the rest, he would make a general summary and tell him the general content and matters so that he would be clear about them and would not be unable to answer when asked by Emperor Zhenguang in the future.

This is a happy day.

It is no exaggeration to say that he lived an easier life than Zheng Qingquan and Emperor Zhenguang.

this day.

Song He rested in the inner hall of the Imperial Household Department as usual.

Outside the inner hall, dozens of eunuchs wearing clothes of different levels were busy with their work.

Some people held pens, some sorted out the memorials, some put their seals on them... and others sorted out the memorials and simply wrote down the major events that had happened in those days, so that they could be reported to the ancestor inside.

Suddenly, a young eunuch wearing green eunuch clothes ran in from the yard outside.

The young eunuch's name was Anzi.

In the East Palace, he did the lowest level cleaning work.

He is also Sun Qi's man. He is young and looks ordinary. He has often reported news to Song He on behalf of Sun Qi.

But these days are different.

Who doesn't know that the Sun family has fallen? This concubine Sun Qi also lost the favor of the prince.

The people in the palace are careful and sharp-eyed.

In the past, when I saw Anzi, I would have started chatting with him a long time ago.

You might even pass on a handful of melon seeds.

Nowadays, everyone pretends to turn a blind eye. When others come to ask to see the ancestor, they look down at people with squinting eyes and glances.

"Do you think the ancestor is so free? Anyone can see him?"

"Go away, go away. The old ancestor served the emperor in practicing calligraphy last night. He did not sleep well all night. He has a headache again this morning and is still resting inside." The eunuch in green clothes, who was guarding the door, did not even intend to go inside to answer. He just waved his hand and let people go.

"Oh, good brother, I really have something important to do today. The concubine has important news to tell the ancestor." An Zi said anxiously.

When the gatekeeper heard this, he sneered.

"Master, what useful information can you give us now? Please don't waste our time."

"If you don't get out of here, I'll have someone kick you out!"

Anzi looked embarrassed.

But thinking of what Sister Yu Xian had just said, he gritted his teeth and suddenly shouted inside: "Godfather!"

Of course, the person he called godfather was not Song He.

He doesn't have that ability yet.

Although Song He was just a eunuch, there were many people in this court who recognized him as their father.

Emperor Zhenguang also knew all these things.

When Song He entered the palace, he was young. Just like Zhongning who is now by Emperor Zhenguang's side, he grew up with Emperor Zhenguang.

Compared with Zhongning, he was actually not favored by Emperor Zhenguang at first.

Song He is so handsome.

He doesn't look like a servant, but more like a young master whose family has fallen on hard times.

What's more, there is always a kind of energy about this person that makes people feel uncomfortable just looking at him. This was how Emperor Zhenguang felt when he was young.

So at first, Song He only did the simplest jobs beside Emperor Zhenguang.

The previous emperor had few descendants.

But precisely because of this, Emperor Zhenguang had a harder time living when he was young.

Many people wanted his life.

Even if you watch closely and carefully, there is always a chance of mistakes.

At that time, Emperor Zhenguang had not yet ascended the throne and was only the crown prince. Once, when he was traveling, he was maliciously attacked by someone and contracted smallpox.

When he was dying, it was Song He who took care of him personally and tried various medicines himself, and only then did he pull him back from the brink of death.

Later, Emperor Zhenguang was rescued.

But Song He was left with a chronic illness. Not only did his hair turn gray at a young age, but he was also extremely afraid of cold. Even in the hottest summer, he had to wrap himself up tightly.

Since then.

Song He then became a close confidant of Emperor Zhenguang.

Not only was he given a mansion and slaves, but he was also given a surname, so that he would be different from the other eunuchs who had been castrated and given names since childhood.

After that, when Emperor Zhenguang ascended the throne, he placed Song He in the position of Silijian.

Emperor Zhenguang was not unaware that Song He had adopted many adopted sons and daughters, and even in the court there were many people who wanted to recognize Song He as their godfather.

But Song He is prudent and never crosses the line.

Emperor Zhenguang was too lazy to care and let him make a fuss. In fact, he felt pity for him in his heart that even if he had someone to accompany him, he could not really leave a child.

Besides, it was common for these eunuchs to adopt sons and daughters.

As long as it's not too much of a fuss.

Emperor Zhenguang always turned a blind eye.

The godfather that Anzi called at this time was Song He's godson, and also one of the five eunuchs in charge of writing.

His name is Huikang.

He was originally reviewing memorials when he heard the noise outside. Then, when he heard this voice, his face immediately darkened.

The other four brothers looked over.

The youngest one of them looked at Huikang and sneered, "Where did you adopt this son from, Third Brother? How could he be so ignorant of the rules? Godfather is resting inside, doesn't he know? If he wakes up godfather, I'm afraid Third Brother will also be punished."

Huikang has been dissatisfied with Anzi's performance recently.

After the Sun family went bankrupt, he originally wanted to get An Zi back to his side and find a new future for him.

But he was a fool and insisted on staying in the Eastern Palace, saying that the concubine had done him a favor in the past.

Don't be ungrateful.

During this period, Anzi came to him privately to show his respect, and he pretended not to know. He didn't expect that this bastard would come here to make trouble today!

You can guess who he came for.

Huikang's face was as gloomy as a dark cloud.

Without responding to the provocative words, he said to the eunuch who was grinding ink beside him with a sullen face, lowering his voice and gritting his teeth: "Get that bastard out! If he continues to behave like this, send him to the Ministry of Punishment!"

The eunuch who was grinding ink was a fellow disciple of Anzi, and both were Huikang's godsons.

Hearing the angry words from my godfather.

He was slightly startled, knowing that his godfather was really angry this time. He did not dare to delay and quickly agreed, "Son, I'll go right away!"

As he said this, he immediately bowed and saluted, then hurried out.

The eunuch guarding the gate outside was startled by Anzi's shouting. He came to his senses and was about to attack when he heard footsteps behind him.

Look back.

It turned out to be Eunuch Zongliang, the most capable eunuch around Eunuch Huikang.

Several people immediately changed their expressions, lowered their heads, and called out to the people very politely: "Eunuch Zongliang."

"elder brother!"

Anzi's eyes also lit up.

Zong Liang, however, had a sullen face and pulled An Zi out in a bad mood.

He has great strength.

Anzi was much younger and thinner than him. He staggered and his wrist ached because of the pulling.

"Brother, bear with the pain." He said weakly.

Zong Liang ignored him and pulled the man to the corner of the yard before stopping.

"You have gone crazy. Godfather has been upset about you for a while, and you actually dared to come here and make trouble for the sake of a concubine. You really woke up the ancestor. Not only you, but even godfather and I will be in trouble!" Zong Liang looked at Anzi with a sullen face and scolded him.

An Zi shrank his neck when he was scolded by him, and couldn't help but defend himself: "They refused to let me in, I have something to say to the ancestors."

"Is it you who has something to say, or is it your master? Are you stupid, or crazy?"

Zong Liang stared, annoyed: "Don't you know what the old ancestor's attitude is? When did you see the old ancestor care about the useless chess piece?"

He touched Anzi's forehead with his hand, tapped it once, and said something.

"While Godfather still has some affection for you, go kowtow to him at night and ask him to transfer you out of the East Palace immediately."

"Brother, I am willing to kowtow to my godfather, even if it takes a whole night."

An Zi insisted: "But I don't want to leave the East Palace. There are not many concubines available now. I can't leave at this time!"

"you--"

Zong Liang was really pissed off.

His handsome and fair face turned red with anger, and the finger he was pointing at was shaking.

Finally, looking at An Zi's insistent look, he suddenly waved his sleeves and said angrily: "Whatever you want, get out. If you come again, don't tell me that your godfather wants to punish you, I will also beat you with a stick!"

He was about to leave after saying that.

But his arm was grabbed by Anzi.

An Zi's anxious voice came from behind: "Brother, I really have something urgent to report to the ancestors."

He knew this was his only chance.

He held Zong Liang's arm tightly, leaned over, looked around again, and then said to Zong Liang in a low voice: "Brother, Li Chang's identity doesn't seem right."

Zong Liang paused.

His originally impatient expression suddenly hardened, his face changed slightly, and he almost quickly turned his head to look at An Zi behind him: "How did you know that?"
