Liu Jin knew that if he wanted to gain core power, he had to enter the Sili Supervisory Office and replace Xiao Jing's position. As for how to fight with civil servants, he had not thought about it yet. .

But Liu Jin knew that his qualifications and fame were incomparable to Xiao Jing, so he simply proposed a plan to underestimate Xiao Jing in front of Zhu Houzhao, and tried to let Zhu Houzhao arrange him to enter the Sili Supervisory Office.

Liu Jin continued: "Eunuch Xiao is old after all, and he is so sophisticated and worldly. He blindly compromised and tolerated the cabinet, so that His Majesty's power fell. But if Eunuch Xiao is replaced, not only will the Empress Dowager disagree, but Liu Shaofu and others in the cabinet will also inevitably object. After all, Eunuch Xiao is the minister entrusted by the late emperor on his death. Only by letting Eunuch Xiao do not do his job in his position can His Majesty recover his power!"

Zhu Houzhao thought about it and nodded slightly: "This is a bit reasonable, but how to put it into practice? Even if the power of Eunuch Xiao's Zhu Ci was separated, who can communicate with me?"

Liu Jin originally wanted to recommend himself, but was worried that Zhu Houzhao would doubt the purpose of his words, so he recommended: "I think that Eunuch Zhang Yuan and Eunuch Zhang have followed His Majesty for many years and knows His Majesty's best. If he is allowed to enter the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank of the rank

"Zhang Yuan?"

Zhu Houzhao hesitated a little and immediately shook his head, "No, no, he does not do it properly, he can take care of me, but if he says he does not have that ability to deal with court affairs!"

"Actually, it was the most appropriate to arrange Eunuch Liu to join the company's ritual supervision, but I cannot do without your advice. Moreover, you are in charge of the three thousand camps and protect my comprehensiveness at any time. I will not transfer you easily."

"Let Dai Yi come to see me. He was originally in the Sili Supervisor. After that, I told my mother that he would take over the East Factory and take Zhu Pi Daquan over... I have to talk to my mother about this matter. If my mother does not agree, it will be useless no matter what I say!"

Liu Jin was very disappointed when he heard this, but he knew that the emperor's trust in him was increasing day by day, and he had a low evaluation of Zhang Yuan, so he felt much more at ease.

"I have a bad relationship with Dai Yi. He is an old man in the palace and has a good status and has always looked down on me. If he leads the East Factory and takes the power of Zhu Ci, his status will inevitably rise sharply... This person may not be as reserved as Xiao Jing. If he suppresses me with his power and says bad things about me in front of His Majesty, what should he do? Wouldn't he shoot himself in the foot?"

At this time, Liu Jin regarded all the eunuchs in the palace as competitors. Whoever gained power or gained the trust of the emperor was his enemy. He used to regard Zhang Yuan and Li Xing as his confidants, but now he regards Dai Yi as the most worthy opponent.

...

...

Zhu Houzhao called Dai Yi and asked for his resignation.

Because Dai Yi had a strong qualification in the Sili Prison, he was not unfamiliar with Zhu Cip, when he learned that Zhu Houzhao wanted to promote him, he was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to express his loyalty.

Zhu Houzhao nodded and said, "Eunuch Dai, you are the few old man in the palace who has experienced three dynasties, but you have not been valued or promoted for various reasons. That is because the old emperor wants you to do things for me and doesn't want you to show your strength too early!"

This was heard by Liu Jin, and he felt goose bumps and thought to himself: "Dai Yi is a foolish and incompetent person. This is why he has a deep experience and has the ability to play the piano and calligraphy, but he can only stay idle in the Sili Prison, and even the matter of the Dongchang Edict Prison is not even in charge. Your Majesty's compliment is clearly a gift on Dai Yi's face!"

Dai Yi was praised by Zhu Houzhao for a few words, and he was already floating and kowtowed to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao said: "Eunuch Dai, you will follow me to see the Queen Mother later. If the Queen Mother asks you, you will show your abilities. Although it is difficult to achieve the power of Zhu Ci day and night, it should be safe to lead the East Factory!"

Dai Yi kowtowed: "Old slave obeys the order!"

Zhu Houzhao took Dai Yi to Kunning Palace. After seeing his mother, he didn't say anything about his intention. After paying homage, he said directly:

"...The Empress Dowager has moved to Yongning Palace. I have ordered people to renovate the Yongshou Palace. In another month or two, my mother can move over!"

Queen Mother Zhang was displeased. After all, she had lived in Kunning Palace for more than 20 years and had already had feelings for her. But she knew that this day would come sooner or later, so she nodded and said:

"Okay, my son, it's time for you to marry the queen and calm your mind... I heard that you still often leave the palace recently and don't go home at night?"

Zhu Houzhao's face looked a little ugly: "Mother, don't listen to those servants' nonsense. I know how to behave! The Mother always thinks that I am a child, but now I am the emperor, and I can make decisions on many things by myself. By the way, Mother, I am here to find you today. I want to tell you something... Let Dai Yi and Dai take charge of the East Factory, what do you think?"

Empress Dowager Zhang glanced at Dai Yi, frowned and asked, "Why did you suddenly raise this matter? Is there something wrong with Eunuch Gao in charge of the East Factory?"

At this time, Gao Feng, who was in charge of the East Palace's Seal Bureau and also served as the eunuch of the Sili Supervisor. This person was also in history, but Gao Feng was transferred from the East Palace too early in this time and space, so that his relationship with Zhu Houzhao was not so close.

Zhu Houzhao said: "My mother, now I am the emperor. Should I promote people around me to the Silijian? Do you have to do everything according to what my father once gave? My son has an idea to rank Eunuch Dai first among eunuchs, so that he can legitimately help Eunuch Xiao handle government affairs... After all, Eunuch Xiao is old and cannot rely on him for everything!"

Empress Dowager Zhang shook her head helplessly: "Emperor, you can do whatever you want. This world is yours. As long as you don't neglect the government and complete your father's entrustment, you will be the one who will decide these things. But you have to discuss with the cabinet and Eunuch Xiao. In addition, Eunuch Gao did not do anything wrong. You suddenly want to replace him, so you always need a reason, right?"

Zhu Houzhao was a little dissatisfied: "My mother, you just said you supported me, why are you asking me for trouble now? You know that I am not in line with the cabinet now, and they have proposed to increase the candidates for cabinet ministers and want to seize power from me... I can't tolerate them, so I have tried to resolve it. I have arranged for Eunuch Dai to lead the eunuch Bingbi and take charge of the Dongchang business. As long as my mother supports me, I can issue an order to see who dares to object!"

"this……"

Empress Dowager Zhang looked embarrassed. She didn't have much opinion. She asked Xiao Jing about anything before. Although Xiao Jing was cowardly, her loyalty to the royal family was beyond doubt. Every time she gave her advice, she was so pertinent that peace was found in the harem after Emperor Xiaozong died of illness.

Queen Mother Zhang finally said helplessly: "You want to use Eunuch Dai, but I don't object, but if you want Eunuch Gao to remove the errand of Admiral Dongchang, you must give a legitimate reason. If you can find it, then the Queen Mother will agree to you!"

Zhu Houzhao didn't know what errands to arrange for Gao Feng. When he was in a dilemma, Zhu Houzhao suddenly thought that Liu Jin was resourceful and immediately said, "My mother wait a moment, my son will go to ask someone first, and I will come back soon!" Before Empress Dowager Zhang understood what was going on, Zhu Houzhao had already run away.

...

...

Zhu Houzhao returned to the Ganqing Palace and immediately found Liu Jin and Zhang Yuan, and Dai Yi, who accompanied him to the Ganqing Palace, started a discussion.

Only then did Zhang Yuan realize that the emperor would promote Dai Yi to the chief eunuch of the Sili Supervisor and the admiral of the East Factory, which made Zhang Yuan feel envious and jealous.

But Zhang Yuan also knew that Dai Yi was not capable, and Dai Yi and Li Xing were both very respectful to him before, which made him feel that he could suppress Dai Yi and thought to himself: "As long as the surname Liu is not in power, it will be fine!"

Zhu Houzhao asked, "The Empress Dowager said that it is okay to promote Eunuch Dai, but you must arrange a suitable errand for Eunuch Gao. You can't think it's a demotion or a grievance... Do you think what errand I'm going to find for him?"

Dai Yi and Zhang Yuan were dumbfounded. In their opinion, the two errands of Chief Eunuch Bingbi and Admiral Dongchang were second only to the eunuch in the palace in terms of status, and no other errand could settle Gao Feng.

Dai Yi said tentatively: "Your Majesty, why don't you call Eunuch Gao and discuss it with him?"

"No, I want to replace him and invite him to discuss. It is obvious that he is putting pressure on me, and my mother and Eunuch Xiao will definitely not agree. This idea is inappropriate!" Zhu Houzhao immediately denied.

Liu Jin glanced at Zhang Yuan and Dai Yi who were helpless and walked out slowly: "Your Majesty, in the opinion of Lao Nu, this matter is not difficult to solve!"

"oh!?"

Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jin and said with a smile: "Eunuch Liu, I know you have the most idea. Let's talk about it, how is it appropriate to arrange Eunuch Gao?"

Liu Jin smiled and said, "The two most important errands in the court are now, one is the construction of Tailing Mausoleum. It was originally arranged for Eunuch Gao to go, but now, Eunuch Li is there, so sending Eunuch Gao to you may be suspected of being exiled..."

"Um!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and looked at Liu Jin again, her eyes full of expectations. I don’t know when, Liu Jin has become the most capable assistant around him, and his trust is increasing day by day.
