Cui Yan praised the Luoyang Rebellion in the last years of the previous dynasty, Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu led troops into the palace to massacre eunuchs.

He thinks that this is the way to promote the righteousness of the world, and the eunuch should die.

In private, he also made a high-pitched discussion on this matter, thinking that although Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu had the intention of usurping rebellion, their behavior of eliminating harm for the country was correct, and such a thing as eunuchs should not exist.

As a result, after Guo Peng ascended the throne and became emperor, he made ten eunuchs in the inner court in just a few months.

The establishment of the Ten Eunuchs of the Inner Court expanded the number of eunuchs from 300 at the beginning of the first year of Yande to 1,800 now.

These eunuchs took over all the jobs in the inner court, isolating the outer court from the inner court, so that the outer court could not figure out what was going on in the inner court.

Looking back now, some scholars have already tasted it.

They realized that this was clearly a planned and organized operation of the emperor to rebuild the eunuch system.

The rebuilding of the once disappeared eunuch group has even become larger, more organized, and more responsible for more things than before.

But the scholars were not very much against it.

Because the eunuchs are basically responsible for the emperor's own affairs at the moment, it is the emperor's family affairs, and the eunuchs are essentially the emperor's house slaves, and no one can say that the house slaves are responsible for family affairs.

It can only be said that everyone was not alert and did not react at the beginning, and the emperor seized the opportunity and brought the eunuch back to the court, making everyone very passive now.

Now it is difficult for the outer court to learn the news of the inner court from various channels, and the news of the inner court is almost blocked.

It is difficult for everyone to know what the emperor is doing every day, what measures he has, and what he thinks, even if he knows, it is not real-time news, but multi-hand news that has changed hands several times, which is of little value, and the information channel is very closed.

This is very unfavorable for everyone who has ups and downs in the sea.

It's like this time, the emperor suddenly attacked, and no one knew how a debate about whether to increase commercial taxes would come to this point, making everyone in danger, and even the cabinet was involved and couldn't get out.

Cui Yan hated these eunuchs very much, hated this group of eunuchs, and thought that it was the duty of a scholar to give them a look.

But at this moment, his heart is weak, he is worried, he is afraid, he can no longer put on that tough posture.

So Su Yuan's heart was very happy.

As the eunuch beside Guo Peng, the eunuch group was respectful to him, but the scholars always gave him a look, and he had to serve carefully, feeling very unhappy.

We are domestic slaves, it is our duty to serve the emperor of the house, what is it to serve you?

What are you guys!

The anger was accumulating in his heart, and today he finally had a window to vent, and he didn't know how happy he was.

It's cool anyway.

Back in the study of the Qinzheng Palace, Su Yuan reported Cui Yan's actions to Guo Peng.

"He didn't give you a look this time?"

Guo Peng asked Su Yuan with a smile while doing the curls.

Su Yuan smiled wryly.

"Back to Your Majesty, yes, this time, Cui Shangshu and Yan Yuese, did not command as usual, no one in his eyes, so that the old slave was a little flattered, in the past, those people who knew the prison were really afraid of going to the Ministry of Rites, and they would be tortured a lot every time they went to the Ministry of Rites."

Guo Peng lay on the cushion and took a deep breath, then slowly sat up and put on his clothes.

"You're often angry with him, too?"

"Old slave...... The old slave is used to it. ”

Su Yuan looked aggrieved.

Guo Peng smiled coldly.

"It's normal for him to see no one in front of you, because you are not a person in his eyes, you are not even a human being, if he is kind to you, how can he reflect his nobility?"

The smile on Su Yuan's face froze.

"What Your Majesty said is that the old slave is a eunuch, he can't be humane, and he won't have heirs, he is castrated, and he can't even enter the ancestral grave after he dies, he is a lonely ghost, in Cui Shangshu's eyes, the old slave is naturally not a human being, just a dirty thing that can't be put on the table."

"Put a dirty thing next to me, is there a problem with you or me, or is there a problem with him? Could it be that I am in the company of a dirty thing every day and still don't know it? ”

Guo Peng looked at Su Yuan with a smile.

"Your Majesty......"

Su Yuan lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.

"Alright, call him in."

Guo Peng got dressed and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Tell me to go down, prepare hot water for me, I want to bathe." ”

"Yes."

Su Yuan took the order and went out, and after a while, he came back with Cui Yan again.

"Your Majesty, Minister Cui Yan, please ask Your Majesty!"

As soon as Cui Yan entered the study, he immediately knelt in front of Guo Peng and asked Guo Peng for his guilt.

Guo Peng sat on the cushion, holding a bowl of hot soup cooked by Cao Lan herself, and took a sip beautifully.

Well, it's still so delicious.

Alain's craftsmanship is getting better and better.

Seeing that the emperor did not move, Cui Yan's ominous premonition became stronger and stronger.

"Your Majesty, Minister, Cui Yan, please sin!"

Cui Yan raised his voice, kowtowed again, and slammed his forehead on the ground with a thud.

Guo Peng raised his eyes to look at Cui Yan's movements, and took another sip of hot soup.

"Lone thought that Cui Gong had any government affairs to report to Lone, but as soon as Cui Gong came to Lone, he asked Lone for sin, Lone was a little confused, what is Cui Gong's crime? Why did you kneel down when you came to Lonely? ”

Guo Peng came to a sentence without being salty, which made Cui Yan chuckle in his heart.

It seems that Guo Peng is very angry.

He decided to go straight in.

"Cui Qu, a member of the Cui clan, is bold, bullying, interfering in the administration of the ministers, and the ministers, as elders, have not disciplined the younger generations, so that the government has been interfered with, the country has suffered losses, and the ministers are to blame for their deaths.

Cui Yan's voice was very loud.

"This is Cui Qu's business, not Cui Gong's business, Cui Qu didn't come to ask for guilt, but Cui Gong came to ask for guilt, which made Gu Hao wonder."

Guo Peng drank another big mouthful of soup.

It's over, Guo Peng still doesn't look salty, and it looks like the problem is quite serious.

Cui Yan swallowed his saliva, and said in fear: "If it weren't for the minister's lax discipline, the nephews in the family would have done something like this, and there would have been no such thing, the minister felt very uneasy, so he came to ask for guilt, of course, Cui Qu would also come to ask for guilt!" ”

Cui Yan pleaded guilty again, but what he got was still not Guo Peng's statement.

"Gong Cui, you have always been known for your uprightness and honesty, and your official reputation is very good among the ministers, and you have made a lot of political achievements, so you are very admired by the officials, and everyone respects you and thinks that you are a trustworthy elder, so Lone will appoint you as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.

Lone still remembers that when the country was just founded, Lone spent a little more money to expand the eunuchs of the inner court, and you suspected that Lone wanted to change the habit of living a thrifty life and become extravagant, so you went to the table several times to admonish Lone, and Lone should remember the reason for the fall of the Later Han Dynasty, right? ”

Guo Peng raised his head and drank the hot soup in the bowl.

"Yes, this is what the old minister has done, so the old minister is very ......"

"It is precisely because of this that you are brave enough to admonish, strict with Lone, never hesitate, will not retreat because Lone is the emperor, and change your style, so Lone trusts you, values you, lets you be the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, prepares for Wei Li, and lets you preside over the re-examination of the government."

Guo Peng interrupted Cui Yan's words, which made Cui Yan quite frightened.

Guo Peng's words are not over yet.

"Lone thinks you are fair, you can be just, but your virtue does not seem to be inherited by your children and nephews, and you, in the face of such things, do not seem to be as strict as you treat Lone, why, treat your own children and nephews, you are so tolerant?"

Guo Peng's voice became deeper and lower, and his tone became colder and colder.

Cui Yan only felt cold all over his body.

"They all stretched out their hands to the officials, if this time passed, would they stretch out their hands to Lone's side? What does he want to do? Does he want to be Dong Zhuo? Or is it Li Dao? Or Guo Yan? Could it be that he still wants to turn Lone into the former Han Emperor Xiaoxian? ”

Cui Yan's body began to tremble.

"Your Majesty...... He...... He is guilty......"

"He's damn !!"

With a roar, Guo Peng stood up suddenly, shook his hand and smashed the bowl in his hand on the ground, and with a snap, the whole bowl was shattered.
