Chapter 2183 The advantages and disadvantages of eunuchs
Dongchang also has a seal eunuch.
It's just that the level is not high, and the corresponding level is probably from the seventh grade.
But there is a problem here.
All those who have a little understanding of the eunuch system under the feudal system understand a common sense.
A eunuch with no grade is a real eunuch, the lowest-level, low-level, low-level, low-level, low-level, and no one will look at the underage person even if he dies on the roadside.
But once the eunuch has a rank, he is a eunuch, and the name of Baogai is very particular, which means that it belongs to the private minister of the owner of a house. The owner of the house is the owner of the entire country, so he is an official.
Once the eunuch has a grade, then the size of the eunuch must not be used to measure whether the eunuch is easy to mess with... Every eunuch with a grade is extremely difficult to deal with.
The eunuch group was not trusted or valued in the Qin Empire. When Emperor Taizu founded the country, he even thought of using only palace maids instead of eunuchs. However, he later found that there were still some things in the harem that had to be done by men, and it was not convenient for palace maids to be done by them, so he still included a small group of eunuchs.
The eunuch really raised his head after Emperor Daxing established the Dongchang, as a knife for the emperor to control all civil and military officials. The word eunuch accompanied the rise of the Three Treasures eunuch, which made the court and the public frightened.
Ogawako didn't know how the emperor promoted the Three Treasures to the old man, but he knew that similar opportunities have come to him now.
Without saying a word, Ogawako knelt on the ground with her knees, bent down to the limit, her hands and forehead were all pressed against the ground, and she knelt down and said, "I... I hope to die for Your Highness."
There is not much fancy and whistle, and the expression of loyalty is expressed by the fact that Ogawako is a eunuch, his cultural level is really limited, and on the other hand, Ogawako has been with Li Chen for a long time, knowing when to say good things and when to say useful things. Most of the time, it is better to say useful things in front of the prince than to say good things.
Li Chen was very satisfied.
Otherwise, since ancient times, emperors have actually liked to use eunuchs.
The eunuchs have obvious shortcomings, but their advantages are even more obvious.
The eunuch has no roots. As long as he did not meet the top-notch emperor like the Ming Xizong Zhu Youxiao who was foolish to a certain extent, he would not be able to pose any threat to the imperial power.
Moreover, the eunuch's identity and class destined that they and the civil and military officials of the court could not get together. The two sides were naturally opposed to each other. All the rights of eunuchs came from the emperor, so they could only rely on the emperor tightly. This is the most solid rope, tightly holding the power of eunuchs in the hands of the emperor.
Just like the eunuch of the Three Treasures, even if his Dongchang is powerful, facing Li Chen, the prince of the regent designated by Emperor Daxing, he had almost no room for resistance.
Because he knew very well that once he lost Li Chen's trust, the civil and military officials in the court would be the first to tear him apart.
"I said before that you asked you to find a gentleman to teach you how to read after you return to Beijing. Now it seems that it is too late to go to work first, and read while taking any of it."
Li Chen paused and emphasized: "The East Factory is independent of the various yamen in the court, and has its own system. The internal infighting and darkness are much greater and much more than the yamen in the court. Although you were appointed by our palace and those old people are somewhat concerned, it will not last long for you, but it still depends on yourself."
