Wei Zhongxian and Cao Huachun were both confused by Emperor Chongzhen's sudden questioning.

Finally, it was the original famous eunuch of the Ming Dynasty. The eunuch leader Jiu Qiansui bowed and replied: "I have heard from Your Majesty. There are indeed many people in the people who clean themselves like slaves and enter the palace to be slaves.

As for the food, there are also many, and there are quite a few.

Many eunuchs who entered the palace, except for some rich people, who could have a family outside the palace, and like ordinary people, the rest would eat with the lonely palace maids, so they called it the right food."

When the eunuchs got married, Emperor Chongzhen knew that after Miqing was finished, a dead eunuch named Xiao Dezhang lived in the Tianjin Concession with several wives and concubines. But he never thought that the eunuchs from the Ming Dynasty were also playing with this kind of marriage?

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen's curious expression, Wei Zhongxian continued: "Originally, Emperor Taizu Gao's harem was extremely strict. If an eunuch in the palace marrys a wife, he will peel it.

However, since the seventh year of Emperor Yingzong's Tianshun, the governor of the East Road of Datong, Ruan He, the right supervisor of the magistrate, married his wife and maids, and ordered him to forgive him, these bans were loosened, and the eunuchs had more things to marry."

Yingzong, it’s the bastard Yingzong again.

Outstanding is called Ying; morality is called Ying; virtue is called Ying; virtue is called Ying; knowledge is called Ying.

This guy was cheated by the civil minister system and became a fool. Not only did he defeat the elite of the Ming army, but he also lost all the British Duke Zhang Fu to the Tumu Fort.

However, after being captured, this bastard was sent back by gifts, imprisoned for eight years and then ascended the throne again, which is considered outstanding.

The so-called moral response should mean that this guy abolished the funeral system of eunuchs and palace maids set by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Dehua Mao and Mingzhi are better. If there is such an emperor who is easy to fool, the ministers are embarrassed to give them a posthumous title such as spiritual and humble ones.

Expelled the bastard from Yingzong Zhu Qizhen, the bastard, from his mind, Emperor Chongzhen said: "I intend to release a group of eunuchs and palace maids. What do Zhongxian think?"

Wei Zhongxian was shocked by Emperor Chongzhen's words and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, you must not release the eunuchs. The palace maids can only be assigned to the soldiers of the garrison according to their age, but the eunuchs cannot be released from the palace."

Emperor Chongzhen originally wanted to give a group of palace maids of different ages to the soldiers of the guards, but what the hell was that the eunuch could not be released from the palace?

Wei Zhongxian knelt down and refused to get up, but just leaned down and said, "Your Majesty is considerate of such a miserable person. I want to let some eunuchs out of the palace. I am very grateful.

However, since these eunuchs entered the palace, they were highly slaughtered. Apart from serving noble people, they could no longer do physical work.

If you are released from the palace, except for some who have accumulated a lot of savings, the rest will be afraid that there will be no other way out except waiting for death.”

Emperor Chongzhen nodded and said, "Forget it, let's give up the matter of releasing the eunuch out of the palace. In addition, pay another sum of silver from the treasury to choose a place to build a cemetery in the capital. The eunuchs of the palace will be buried in the cemetery for a hundred years.

In addition, after building another temple, the homeless internal supervisors will be held at the temple. Zhongxian remembers to choose two old eunuchs to take charge of the job of scattering."

After thinking about it, Emperor Chongzhen added another sentence: "In addition, I sent someone to find the Master of Purity. If I could find it, I would pay to redeem the treasures that were castrated back then, and temporarily put them in the side courtyard of the temple, and buried them together when they were buried."

Wei Zhongxian knelt more steadily now, even eunuchs such as Cao Huachun knelt down and kowtowed, "I'll thank Your Majesty for your kindness!"

Originally, except for some of the eunuchs in the palace who were very good at doing well, such as Wei Zhongxian, the remaining eunuchs who were too old to be driven out of the palace and let themselves die.

This also directly led to the emergence of Zhongguancun.

Zhongguancun, its original name is not Zhongguancun, but Zhongguancun, which is the buried place created by the eunuchs in the palace.

However, there are still many eunuchs who do not have the money and cannot afford it. They are driven out of the palace and freeze to death and starve to death. They can only leave their fate.

As for the treasure they are redeemed and buried together, this is the real key point.

A man, regardless of whether he cut it off since childhood or after he became an adult, there is no one who doesn’t care about that treasure.

However, not everyone can save enough money to redeem the treasure, especially those who are purified outside the palace.

The Master of Pure Body outside the palace usually does not charge money, or has no money to collect.

But why are there still people who become pure masters? Isn’t it just that one day, one eunuch who has developed and has money, and then redeems the treasure at a high price?

And the redemption price of this treasure can be as high as thousands of taels.

It can be said that the price of a treasure often requires the lifelong savings of the eunuchs in the palace, and it is not even enough. Eunuchs often like to bet. Some people lose the bet and often lose money until they die.

Now Emperor Chongzhen learned to invite people's hearts in later generations to have a huge chemical effect.

Emperor Chongzhen's treasury paid money to build cemeteries and temples so that these eunuchs would not be homeless, and they also paid money to redeem their lives for these eunuchs. It can be said that they were truly noble and generous.

However, Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and ordered Wei Zhongxian and others to calm down, but then turned the topic to the matter of releasing the palace maids: "Where is the palace maids released? What should I do?"

Wei Zhongxian thought for a while before saying, "I call your Majesty, I think it is better to release it than to be a official."

Seeing Emperor Chongzhen signaling himself to continue, Wei Zhongxian continued, "Your Majesty has also asked about food just now. If some palace maids are impatient with loneliness and use Mr. Jiao and other ***, so that they are broken, and they will not be able to get married after leaving the palace. It is better to be an official partner."

Emperor Chongzhen whispered in his heart, but he forgot about this matter.

How many palace maids and eunuchs in the palace are combined at this time?

It is certain that tens of thousands of people. Even if the mites are cleared and dirty water is said to be 90,000, but in fact, half of them are counted, there are still as many as 40,000 to 50,000.

Then, according to the proportion of half and half, the number of palace maids will be 20,000 to 30,000.

If there is one of these 20,000 to 30,000 palace maids who can't stand the loneliness, and the husband himself used something like Mr. Jiao to break up, then it would be difficult to get married after leaving the palace.

However, Emperor Chongzhen was obviously even more reluctant to give such officials to the soldiers of the Guards.

But Wei Zhongxian continued, "Besides, when the women in the palace are fine, they can gather together to chat, and some of them cannot be spread out of the palace.

If some palace maids speak nonsense after they are released from the palace, they may be suspected of being involved in the palace ban. If they are entitled to the soldiers of the garrison, they can ensure that the affairs in the palace will not be leaked to the greatest extent."

Emperor Chongzhen nodded, then waved his hand and ordered the few people to retreat.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't care much about the so-called private leak of the palace ban.

So what if it is leaked? Throughout history, there is an emperor who is more shameless than me? In the southeast area, I have long become a tyrant who is even more cruel than the king of Jie and Zhou?

The messy thing about history books is just a little luoli, and it is not up to those in power to dress up. As for the people, if the people do not have a good reputation when I die, that would be nonsense.

Emperor Chongzhen said he didn't care about his reputation among those gentry, and he just wanted to be happy. At worst, he could bury them in the soil together.

Emperor Chongzhen went to Empress Zhou's bedroom again.

Queen Zhou is the real lord of the harem. If you release the palace maids in the harem, you have to listen to the opinions of Queen Zhou.

However, Empress Zhou initially agreed with Emperor Chongzhen's statement that he wanted not to recruit eunuchs, but in the end he still opposed it.

According to rumors in the world, some eunuchs are not completely clean when they are purified, and the treasures are likely to grow up again. As for the things that eunuchs have been recorded in history in the harem, it is even more disgusting.

So at the beginning, Empress Zhou agreed with Emperor Chongzhen’s statement that he would no longer accept eunuchs.

But then I thought about it, it was not right. If you don’t accept eunuchs, what should I do if the imperial horse supervisor in the east and west factories are replaced by palace maids?

Thinking of this, Empress Zhou still advised: "Your Majesty was merciful to the people and gave birth to a child. It was originally a kind heart, but it was easy to do something wrong, right?

If there are no eunuchs in the palace, will the palace maids take charge of everything? Especially in the east and west factories, eunuchs are not allowed.

As for choosing a man as a person, I think it is very inappropriate. It is not appropriate for men to appear in the harem.

Therefore, I think that Your Majesty can issue an order to prohibit the people from purifying themselves, and those who violate the situation will be severely punished."

After thinking about it, Empress Zhou continued, "As for the release of the palace maids, Your Majesty can determine the age in the future. Anyone who is over 23 or 24 years old will be condemned from the palace and will be allowed to marry or be married by himself."

Emperor Chongzhen disagreed.

The Americans in later generations were not all made up of rough men and tomboys. If they were all eunuchs, the picture would be too beautiful and I wouldn’t dare to think about it.

But Empress Zhou said nothing wrong. This is the national conditions of the Ming Dynasty now, or the national conditions of the Central Plains since ancient times have been like this. Eunuchs should still have.

However, when Emperor Chongzhen was discussing with Empress Zhou, Wei Zhongxian, Cao Huachun and others called the eunuchs from the palace, except for the Silijian and the Imperial Horse Prison, and came to Wei Zhongxian's home together.

After driving away the servants who served him, even Wei Zhongxian's son was driven out, the entire study was surrounded by some things factory works.

Wei Zhongxian looked at some of the other eunuchs and coughed his throat and said, "Your Majesty ordered our family and Eunuch Cao to come to the palace to meet, but it was a big deal.

This matter is related to our old path in the future, so our family and Eunuch Cao came to discuss it.

In addition, the eunuch Wang Chengen, the eunuch in the palace, and the eunuch Fang Zhenghua, the imperial horse supervisor, both agreed, and we also asked our family to handle the matter with full authority."

Hearing what Wei Zhongxian said solemnly, the other eunuchs in the twenty-four prisons and some eunuchs of high grades were all shocked and bowed and said, "Please give me the order."

Wei Zhongxian changed his color and said, "When you are going to die in your family! You can just call Eunuch Wei in the future. If you look at us, just call Admiral Wei. If the three words "Nine Thousand Years" popped out of someone's mouth, our family will make him a dilemma!"

The eunuchs were stunned when they heard this. They originally thought that Old Wei had a big fanfare to ask them to come and discuss something, but as soon as they came up, they happened like this.

Wei Zhongxian calmed down his face and then said, "Others outside said that we are eunuchs who are in trouble with the country and the country, dead eunuchs, rotten butts, Yin and Yang people, they will say whatever they say is ugly.

But Your Majesty is considerate to us eunuchs, and plans to spend some money from the palace treasury to buy a piece of land in the capital to build a temple, so that we eunuchs who have no roots can have a place to settle after their death. In addition, we should redeem the treasures we lost back then and store them in the temple first.

It’s okay for our family to say that we have sons and daughters at least, but it’s hard for everyone here to say that?”

Only then did the eunuchs know why Wei Zhongxian's face changed drastically just now.

Not to mention that I had heard what Emperor Chongzhen said, even if I heard Wei Zhongxian's retelling, everyone's hearts were still hot.

It is estimated that Old Wei was determined to sell himself to Emperor Chongzhen on the spot. It would be better not to say anything like Jiu Qiansui in the future. The people who were present called Jiu Qiansui in private, but Old Wei didn't care at all. Anyway, no one would go to report to Emperor Chongzhen.

But this point raised by Emperor Chongzhen is a good thing. Why did the Nine Thousand Years summon all of him and others?

After all, Xu Yanpan, the eunuch in the Imperial Prison, was able to contact Emperor Chongzhen. After all, he was shocked and said: "Is it because Your Majesty intends to prohibit the civil castration, and no eunuchs will be recruited in the harem?"

Wei Zhongxian said with a gloomy face: "Yes, this is exactly what our family is worried about. The emperor is kind-hearted. Even if he is a eunuch like us, the emperor is very merciful and will definitely not let the people clean themselves.

But besides the eunuchs who are destined to be killed, who else is loyal to the emperor like me?"

Xu Yanpan pondered and said, "Eunuch Wei is saying that once the emperor issued an order, I am afraid that this matter will never be restored.

Otherwise, let’s get a batch before the emperor’s will?”

Wei Zhongxian sneered, "You can do it! You can do it. You can finish it today, and the emperor will be able to peel you off tomorrow!"

When the other eunuchs heard this, they felt helpless.

Wei Zhongxian then continued, "Okay, who can I show you a dead person? This is it? Since we call you here, we have discussed it with Eunuch Cao, Eunuch Wang and Eunuch Fang."
