Chapter 56: Also Lost

When Yi Shiha received the imperial decree from Zhu Qizhen, he also received a letter from Jin Ying.

Let’s talk about the causes and consequences one by one.

Yi Shiha sighed softly in his heart and said to himself: "It seems that I have to deal with Wang Zhen from now on."

Yishiha's achievements are all in the northeast. Although he is said to be a eunuch, looking at what he does, he is more like a military general. Therefore, he is not in the palace all the year round.

In these fights in the palace, you should avoid them if you can, and avoid them if you can.

Although it seems that there is no one in the palace to help, at least he is not hindered by the storm in the inner court.

But now, although Jin Ying only talked about this one thing in the letter, he knew with his toes that Jin Ying had given him this big benefit.

Even if Wang Zhen is blind, he will not fail to regard him and Jin Ying as the same group.

Based on this analysis of major interests, most political beings only recognize reality. Reality is the first thing Kim Young does when he takes office, and even recommending it is a mistake.

It is impossible for Yi Shiha to deny it.

Even if you deny it, you will be considered ungrateful.

Yi Shiha had to be involved in the struggle between Wang Zhen and Jin Ying.

Yi Shiha thought to himself: "Looking at what Jin Ying said, this emperor is as smart as the late emperor. It seems that if you want to make a difference in the Northeast, it depends on what your majesty thinks."

Immediately after that, he set off on his journey, riding fast and walking all the way to the official post. In just two days, he arrived in Beijing. He immediately settled in a temple and reported to the palace.

The relationship between eunuchs and temples in Beijing is extremely close. Many temples were built with donations from eunuchs, and many were even renovated from the residences of eunuchs.

Yes, many eunuchs have mansions outside.

It's just that Yi Shiha was away from home all year round and didn't have a house in the capital. But in Shenyang City, his house was as big as the house of the commander-in-chief and the governor.

After he settled down, he immediately sent someone to deliver the gifts to Jin Ying's house. However, Jin Ying did not go home while in the palace. At this time, there were very few eunuchs in the palace who had mansions outside.

However, as a person close to Emperor Xuanzong, Jin Ying was especially given the title.

However, Jin Ying could naturally guess this unfavorable behavior, which was also human nature, so he left a message long ago, just one sentence: "Sheng Ming, the emperor is above, just play back honestly."

Early the next morning, Yi Shiha entered the palace.

It's just that Zhu Qizhen went to court in the morning and listened to lectures. He spent noon in Kunning Palace, and in the afternoon he listened to the Empress Dowager analyzing the government affairs in Cining Palace. He got up before dawn every day, even if there was nothing important to do in the day.

You can only come back after paying your respects to the Empress Dowager at Cining Palace.

The earliest is in the afternoon.

So Yi Shiha waited from morning to afternoon. With Jin Ying taking care of him, he did not dare to eat or drink much for fear of making a fool of himself in front of Zhu Qizhen. You must know that eunuchs have congenital physiological defects that make it difficult for them to hold back their urine. They may even not hold their urine tightly.

, it will be raining in the morning, and it is inevitable that there will be a peculiar smell on the body.

Therefore, eunuchs were often powdered and sprinkled with spices to cover up their ugly appearance.

Yi Shiha knew that today, the emperor had summoned him. Other times, it would be fine if something went wrong. But if something went wrong when the emperor summoned him, it would be bad.

If nothing else, why didn't King Zhao use Lian Po?

Isn’t it just the elderly who have urgent urination and frequent urination?

If Yishuha loses points in this regard, let alone promoting and reemploying, I am afraid it will be impossible to even return to Liaodong to make contributions.

Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to say that this meeting was not taken seriously by Hado.

"Your Majesty has arrived." Yi Shiha was waiting in the Qianqing Palace. Suddenly he heard the little eunuch shout and he immediately knelt down on the ground. He bowed his head to the ground and did not dare to raise his head.

Zhu Qizhen did not ride on a horse but came on foot. Even those who saw him from a distance were disappointed.

Probably because the color of the clothes that Yishiha was wearing was different from that of the little eunuch, he looked like a high-ranking eunuch. Zhu Qizhen couldn't tell for a while whether he was in a flying fish suit, a flying cow suit, or some other type of python suit.

It has to be said that even though Zhu Qizhen feels very familiar with the world, he still doesn't know many complicated etiquettes, such as Feiyu suit, Feiniu suit, and many other python suits. Zhu Qizhen can't see anything about it. It's different, but for the minister, it is a great honor.

However, Zhu Qizhen was the emperor.

Many times it is others who accommodate him, rather than him accommodating others.

Zhu Qizhen was disappointed when he saw it, and felt a little disappointed.

Because most of Yishiha's hair was white, his face was heavily wrinkled, and he looked like he was in danger of sagging.

He is old.

The man who served Nuer as an envoy to Emperor Taizong and Xuanzong back then is already old. I'm afraid his years are running out.

This is already a hidden danger in Zhu Qizhen's mind. Among the civil servants, San Yang and Hu Hui are all old. Among the generals, the first generation of Jingnan heroes headed by Zhang Fu are also old. Even Fang Zheng was not able to do so at the time. There were a thousand households, and now they are getting old.

Among the eunuchs, those who were useful were Zheng He, Wang Jinghong, and Yi Shiha. They died of old age while waiting for them.

When the country is young, heroes will go first.

Zhu Qizhen was both worried and secretly happy about the lack of support in the imperial court in the future. He was secretly happy that these powerful ministers had withered away one by one. As Jian Gong said, as long as he could bear it, these people would all be together without him taking care of them. One leaves the center of power.

It’s only about ten years.

But these people were all ministers trained by Emperor Taizong and appointed by Renxuan. It can be said that they were outstanding men who were tempered by countless lives in the Battle of Jingnan.

With all these people gone, can he secure the Ming Dynasty, maintain the Ming Dynasty, and counterattack Wasi?

But this worry is only in Zhu Qizhen's mind. Now is not the time to consider this. Zhu Qizhen said: "Let Yishi get up and talk again after entering the palace."

Zhu Qizhen kept walking, and immediately a young eunuch came to rule Yi Shiha. Yi Shiha then followed Zhu Qizhen's crowd and entered the Qianqing Palace.

After Zhu Qizhen sat down, he failed to summon him.

Yi Shiha entered the hall, glanced around, and saw Jin Ying and Wang Zhen standing behind Zhu Qizhen, one on the left and the other on the right.

"This servant pays homage to Your Majesty and wishes you His Majesty's greetings."

Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and said: "Honor, Holy Gong, Sir Yi is a meritorious official of the imperial court, and I will give you a seat if you come."

Immediately, someone moved an embroidery pier over and asked Yishiha to sit down.

After thanking him, he carefully sat down and said, "I thank you, Your Majesty."

Zhu Qizhen asked: "Is Eunuch Yi familiar with the Jurchen tribe?"

Yi Shiha said: "I am a Jurchen. Since I followed Taizong, I have been dealing with Jurchen tribes, so I am very familiar with them."

Zhu Qizhen said: "I am suffering from severe drought. It was you who reported it."

Yi Shiha said: "It is my slave."

Zhu Qizhen said: "Then please tell me the situation."

Yishiha said: "What I said is inappropriate. To be precise, it is not the severe drought in Nuergandusi, but the severe drought in Jurchen. This year's autumn harvest, I am afraid there will be no harvest."

Zhu Qizhen didn't pay attention to whether the Jurchen drought was serious or not, and asked: "Do the Jurchen tribes also farm?"

Yi Shiha said: "The Jurchen tribes make a living by fishing and hunting, but that's not because they don't farm. It's just because the world in Nurqian is cold. Half of the year is covered with ice and snow."

"So it can only be planted for one season. It can only be planted in spring and harvested in summer. And the Jurchens don't know how to take care of the crops, so the field yield is not high."

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said: "In other words, most places in the Northeast can be cultivated?"

Yishiha pondered for a while and said, "Yes."

Zhu Qizhen nodded and said, "Go on."

Could Zhu Qizhen not know whether farming was possible in the Northeast? But he knew it was useless because he could not confirm his own source of information, so he had to get the news from Yishiha, an authority in the Northeast.

Only by convincing others. The most important thing is the Queen Mother.

In fact, Zhu Qizhen's summoning of Yi Shiha had already exceeded the boundaries drawn by the Empress Dowager for him.

Although he didn't say anything, Zhu Qizhen knew that the Empress Dowager was waiting for him to give an explanation.

So Zhu Qizhen felt that he had to prepare an explanation.

However, Yi Shiha didn't know the profound meaning of Zhu Qizhen's question. He continued to talk about the Jurchen drought and said: "Before the slave came, the three guards of Jianzhou were already ready to make a move. According to the news from the slave, there are messengers from Waci.

Among the three guards of Jianzhou."
