When I was in Qin Dynasty, I lost contact with the wave

Chapter 186 Ying Zheng's gift, Zhang Yi's old house

Zhang Ji left Zhangtai Palace, and originally planned to go home with the startling salamander, but found that the startling salamander had already gone ahead and did not wait for him.

Gai Nie, Meng Tian, ​​Li Si, Xuan Jian, Liu Jiannu and others waiting outside the door did not ask what Zhang Ji and Ying Zheng talked about.

Gai Nie is not a person who likes to talk too much. Although he is good friends with Ying Zheng, he understands what kind of limits and boundaries should be grasped as Ying Zheng's minister, guard and friend.And he also knew that Ying Zheng would definitely consult with him.

Meng Tian is very clear about his position, he is a general, he doesn't understand many plots and tricks, so he doesn't need to understand.

And Li Si... He is a smart person, and a smart person knows that some things should not be too curious, especially when it involves the Queen Mother.

Although everyone was outside the hall just now, the roars and smashing sounds from inside the hall could barely reach everyone's ears.

Judging the situation has always been Li Si's forte, and he would not have encountered such a bad luck at this time.

What's more, Li Si understood his position.

Unlike Zhang Ji, he is a confidant and a like-minded friend who has walked into Yingzheng's heart, while Li Si is a pure courtier, not even a confidant. If it weren't for Yingzheng, no one is available, maybe it's not his turn to listen together now Lai Ai's matter.

But he was in no hurry.

Adding icing on the cake is worse than giving charcoal in the snow. He joined Yingzheng early enough, and he is confident that he is capable. There will be many chances of gaining Yingzheng's trust and promotion in the future.

Xuan Jian and Liu Jiannu remained silent. They were sharp swords in Ying Zheng's hands, so they didn't need to think too much.

After Zhang Ji came out of Zhangtai Palace, he left Xianyang Palace under the guidance of the white-haired eunuch Ling, but this eunuch Ling still followed Zhang Ji after leaving Xianyang Palace.

"Mr. Zhang Ji, thanks to Mr. Wang Shangnian, a special mansion with 12 maids is given."

From the slightly sharp male duck voice, it can be heard that this eunuch Ling is an eunuch, not one of those eunuchs with complete bodies, but Zhang Ji did not show any unusual eyes.

"I thank the king for your kindness." Zhang Ji bowed to Xianyang Palace, and then bowed slightly to the white-haired Eunuch Ling, "Please trouble Eunuch Ling to lead the way."

"This is the order of the king, and this old slave dare not take credit for it."

The eunuch Ling quickly waved his hand and also returned a salute.

As the eunuch order of the Qin Palace, he controlled all the eunuchs and servants in the palace. He served successively three generations of King Zhaoxiang, King Xiaowen, and King Zhuangxiang, and also served the current King Qin Yingzheng. He is a veteran of the four dynasties.And the eunuch Ling who has served in Xianyang Palace for so many years is naturally not a fool.

There are not a few courtiers he has secretly dealt with over the years.

However, the palace has its own set of survival rules in the palace. He knows who can be messed with and who can't be messed with, so he can live to this day.

Anyone who is not blind can see Ying Zheng's attitude towards Zhang Ji.Faced with matters involving the Queen Mother, only Zhang Ji was left alone to discuss, excluding all other confidantes, what kind of trust is this?

And the mansion that Yingzheng bestowed on Zhang Ji showed his favor to Zhang Ji.

However, Zhang Ji is also interesting.

All through the ages, the princes and ministers of the Qin State felt disgusted when they heard the voice of eunuchs with mutilated bodies like them.Don't look at them, they may smile at themselves, but they don't know how to scold themselves behind their backs.

The eunuch Ling, who has read countless people, has been influenced by the Qin kings in the past, and naturally learned the art of observing words and emotions.

He can see through who is pretending to be respectful and who is hiding contempt in their eyes.

But Zhang Ji didn't seem to have any dislike for him because of his mutilated body, on the contrary, he looked like he really respected him, which made eunuch Ling feel a little surprised and appreciated.

In the final analysis, eunuchs like them who are physically disabled and have no descendants, although they are a bit greedy, can they still take the money away after death?
The most is to distribute some to the clansmen, and then the rest belong to King Qin. This is also the reason why King Qin of all dynasties tacitly allowed the eunuchs around him to accept bribes appropriately.

Besides money, what these disabled eunuchs care about most is dignity.

It is because of the inferiority of the physically handicapped, the more they lack, the more they care about it, so these physically handicapped eunuchs care more about dignity.

It's a pity that in this era, there are too few people who can treat these physically handicapped eunuchs equally.

Of course, Zhang Ji is an exception, that's only because he comes from later generations.

In the eyes of later generations, a physically disabled eunuch is just a poor man.

Apart from sympathy, Zhang Ji was somewhat afraid of these eunuchs.

Throughout the past and present, these eunuchs who served in the palace were the least to be provoked. They had no descendants, so the king might trust them more at certain times, let alone provoke them easily.No matter how high your status is, you don't know if the eunuchs in the palace will kill you by chance.

A certain pig butcher general who ignored the eunuch's pleading for peace because he had a large army in his hand, and went to the palace at night to only brush the copy, will use his life to prove that the eunuch should not be underestimated in the future.

Zhang Ji chatted with Eunuch Ling along the way, and after getting off his horse, he took the initiative to help the eunuch Ling who was a little unsteady, and at the same time quietly put a piece of gold cake into Eunuch Ling's hand.And this eunuch Ling was also a fine person, and he put the gold cake in his sleeve as if nothing had happened.

"My property is still in Xinzheng and has not been fully transferred to Xianyang. I am a little nervous, and the eunuch order should not be disgusted."

The eunuch Ling received respect and money, so he smiled happily, and led Zhang Ji into the mansion bestowed upon him by Ying Zheng.

It seemed nothing from the outside, it seemed that this was just an ordinary mansion of a wealthy family, but after entering the gate of the mansion, Zhang Ji was really surprised by the scale of this mansion.

The scale of this mansion is even bigger than Ji Wuye's mansion, with luxurious architecture.There are many mountains and rocks from the heads of various countries in the mansion, and there is also an artificial lake dug by hand and connected to the Wei River. There are many small fishes of gold, white and black in the lake, shaking their tail fins freely in the lake. Swimming, the three colors of gold, white and black form a unique landscape in the lake under the sunlight.

"This is salmon, produced in Sui Shui, and it was also a gift from the king."

Zhang Ji continued to walk around under the guidance of the eunuch order. There are all kinds of pavilions, railings, flowers and plants in the mansion, especially the pictures carved on the wooden objects in the mansion including the railings. a feeling of.

Although Ying Zheng bestowed such a mansion on him, Zhang Ji became curious.

The mansion bestowed by Yingzheng was most likely confiscated by a certain king of Qin from a courtier who committed a crime, and after a little cleaning and decoration, it could be used as a reward for the courtier who made contributions.However, Zhang Ji was a little curious, whose mansion actually belonged to it, it was so unique, and it was qualified to be built near the palace?
This mansion looks low-key and humble on the outside, but it is noble and solemn on the inside. The decoration is luxurious but yet classic and elegant, as if it was built by a certain high-ranking celebrity.

Moreover, although there are many houses in the mansion, each house is arranged in an orderly manner. The slightly luxurious house in the middle is surrounded by the more ordinary houses on the outside, which is very similar to the resting place of the guards. Houses are surrounded to form protection.In addition, the courtyard walls around the mansion are uneven, and there are hidden control and stepping stones, which can obviously be used as a small city wall to guard. The whole mansion is orderly and secretly conforms to the way of the military.

"The former owner of this mansion, sir, you should be more familiar with it than this old slave."

Zhang Ji suddenly had a guess in his heart.

"This is the residence of Zhang Zi, Wu Xinjun, the former Great Qin Xiangbang!"
