I heard that Eunuch Wei has always refused everyone to the officials who defected to him, asking for officials and money. Especially the members of Qi, Chu and Zhejiang, who were oppressed by Donglin, have always been regarded as guests of honor and are extremely popular among the eunuch party. However, I wonder if I will accept me, who are not members of the three parties, and whether I will face me with Donglin in a tit-for-tat way?

Cui Chengxiu's head had never stopped along the way. He was not sure that Wei Zhongxian would accept him and stand up for him to fight against the Donglin Party members. But now there is no other way, so he can only place his hope on Wei Zhongxian. Otherwise, he would have to pack up his things and go out of Beijing to serve as an army.

In fact, why was Cui Chengxiu willing to rely on a temple, which caused his lifelong infamousness and other people's swearing, but if not, he would have to abandon his post and become a military force. After ten years of hard work, he would have to waste his life. How could he be willing to do so? In addition, he was bullied by the Donglin Party members in recent years, and he had already had enough of the days of swallowing his anger. Now Donglin doesn't even let him go, what are there to worry about and what are you nostalgic about! The reputation of the scholar-officials is just an illusion, and the real profit in front of him is real!

Didn’t Zhang Juzheng gain a lifetime of fame because of his collusion with Feng Bao? Since Zhang Juzheng was able to achieve fame without fame, why can’t I, Cui Chengxiu, rely on Wei Zhongxian?

With a stomach full of anxiety and anxiety, Cui Chengxiu could feel that his heart was about to jump out. The more he walked east, the more he jumped. Finally, the sedan chairmen stopped and the mansion of the eunuch Wei Zhongxian, the eunuch of the East Factory, arrived!

"Master, Eunuch Wei's mansion has arrived!"

The sedan chairmen were sweating all the way, and everyone was exhausted, squatting on the ground and panting. Cui Chengxiu in the sedan chair was not much better than them. The unknown future made him worried, and he was confused and frightened as if he was exploring in the dark. After hesitating for a moment, he took a deep breath and lifted the curtain of the sedan chair. At this moment, he had no other thoughts in his heart...

"Stop, what are you doing!"

As soon as Cui Chengxiu got out of the sedan chair, he heard a loud shout. Then he saw three people walking on the steps of the Wei Mansion, all wearing pointed hats, white leather boots, brown clothes, and small ribbons. Looking at their outfits, they were from the East Factory.

Cui Chengxiu knew that these characters were the gatekeepers of Wei's house, so he hurriedly stepped forward to compile and presented a gift, handed over a famous post, and said respectfully: "I have a message from you, the left deputy censor of the Censorate, and the governor of Huaiyang Cui Chengxiu asked to see Eunuch Wei!"

At this moment, Cui Chengxiu ignored his identity and directly gave a gift to several unqualified and level-less Dongchang actors. But I think so, as soon as he was punished, there was no such thing as a court official. If Wei Zhongxian did not accept him, he would probably be sent to prison tomorrow.

"who?!"

Qian En and the others were about to take Cui Chengxiu's famous post when Yuan Dahai suddenly screamed in the doorman. Then he rushed out of the house and stared at Cui Chengxiu under the steps. He muttered to himself the words "Cui Chengxiu", with a little doubt and a little surprise.

Qian En and the others were confused by Yuan Dahai's strange expression, thinking that Yuan Dahai recognized Cui Chengxiu.

Qian En stepped forward and asked quietly: "What, acquaintance?"

"Oh...no...no..." Yuan Dahai shook his head, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and looked up and down calmly.

It’s better to meet than to be famous. I don’t expect that Cui Chengxiu, who is the leader of the “Five Tigers” of the eunuch party, is such a weak middle-aged Confucian figure. He looks quite honest, and he doesn’t look like a scorpion at all?

According to historical records, half of the defeat of Donglin was due to Cui Chengxiu. His influence and status within the eunuch party were second only to Wei Zhongxian. Even the eunuchs of Sili, Wang Tigan, Grand Secretary Gu Bingqian, Wei Guanghui and others were not as good as his position in Wei Zhongxian's mind. As the leader of the "Five Tigers" of the eunuch party, Cui Chengxiu made great efforts to completely resolve the Donglin party. Later, he was in a high position and his power was invincible.

It was originally thought that Cui Chengxiu, as the core backbone of the eunuch party, had probably surrendered to Wei Zhongxian for a long time, but he didn't expect that this person was just here to surrender. Yuan Dahai was naturally shocked. (All core figures of the eunuch party, such as Wei Wenhui and Xu Xianchun, would go straight into the second gate every time they came to the mansion, and Yuan Dahai and the others dared not stop them. The officials who came to bid for famous posts to seek their opinions were new people, so they came to Cui Chengxiu to seek their opinions, rather than directly entering the mansion with the support of a group of guards. Yuan Dahai analyzed that Cui Chengxiu had not yet surrendered to Wei Zhongxian.)

So how did Choi Chengxiu vote for Wei Zhongxian and how did she become successful?

Yuan Dahai was curious, changed the usual rules and said to Cui Chengxiu: "It's so late, Eunuch Wei will have to rest a long time ago. What's the matter with him?"

Qian En and others were stunned when they heard Yuan Dahai say this and looked at him in confusion. This was unruly.

"this..."

Cui Chengxiu let out a squeak, unwilling to say what she wanted, but took out a ingot of silver from her sleeve and handed it to Yuan Dahai, and smiled and said with apologies: "I want to make a little sense, please give me some convenience and send it to Cui."

Qian En thought Yuan Dahai would receive Cui Chengxiu's money, so he hurriedly reminded him in a low voice: "Sifang, Eunuch Wang has given orders..."

"I know." Yuan Dahai waved his hand slightly and handed the silver back to Cui Chengxiu, nodding and said, "My father-in-law has rules. I dare not accept the door bag. Please ask Lord Cui to take it back! I will go and pass it on to the Lord. If my father-in-law has not stopped yet, he will be able to let you see you."

Upon hearing this, Cui Chengxiu was overjoyed and thanked her loudly: "Thank you, thank you! Cui is so grateful!"

"Please wait for Lord Cui!"

After signaling Qian En, Yuan Dahai turned his head and walked towards the second gate. There was also a room for office in the second gate, but the guards inside were eunuchs from the palace.

He had been a gatekeeper in the Wei Mansion for half a month, and Yuan Dahai and the eunuchs on duty at the second gate were naturally familiar with each other. He immediately told Cui Chengxiu's request for a meeting. The eunuch on duty did not dare to delay, so he sent a teenage eunuch to communicate to Wei Zhongxian.

After the matter was finished, Yuan Dahai retreated to the gate and saw Cui Chengxiu looking up in the anxious mansion, thinking that this person must have something important, otherwise he would not have looked like this. He suddenly felt a sudden heart: Could it be that he came so late to meet Wei Zhongxian and the Donglin Party?
