◎Long-lasting love! The main theme is companionship.◎

The palace is not short of palace maids and eunuchs. The most popular eunuch around the emperor is Li Dequan.

In fact, this person is not a real person in history.

Let's just say that this world in the book is more or less mysterious.

Where there are real people and real events, there are artistic images.

The image of Li Dequan was first known to everyone from movies and TV dramas.

According to the query results of System 006, Li Dequan is indeed not a real person in history.

But he has a historical prototype.

That is Liang Jiugong, the eunuch who is the confidant of Master Kang.

This eunuch Liang has been following Master Kang since he was thirteen years old.

It can be said that the two of them were together for their entire lives. In the entire palace, no one spent more time with Master Kang than this eunuch Liang, and they truly achieved "day and night companionship" and "grow old together".

Moreover, Liang Jiugong accompanied Master Kang through many of his unbearable times and difficult years when he was young.

Just talking about this kind of friendship, it is not something that ordinary people can compare to.

This Li Dequan is based on Liang Jiugong, but he added a little bit of the deeds of other famous eunuchs.

Generally speaking, he is about 80% Liang Jiugong.

The reason why there is still 20% difference is mainly that this one is loyal to Master Kang wholeheartedly.

Unlike his historical prototype, the real Liang Jiugong Liang Eunuch, he is more or less selfish.

After all, that eunuch Liang is a real human being, while this eunuch Li is just a literary character. In the end, he is just a fictional character, so of course he can be a little fake.

Anyway, it is still quite difficult for a person to be completely selfless and loyal to another person wholeheartedly.

On the contrary, the real Liang Jiugong is somewhat popular - because he is selfish.

According to the information pushed by System 006, Mo Yu learned about the life of this eunuch Liang.

His early resume was still very loyal.

He has been following Master Kang since he was thirteen years old and served Master Kang. He always considered Master Kang in everything and never had any second thoughts.

But after the dethronement of the crown prince, his selfishness was revealed.

Because at this time, Master Kang was very irritable every day, and as his trusted eunuch, Eunuch Liang must find a way to share the worries of the Wansui Master. In this way, how to provide Master Kang with a suitable candidate for the successor is a big problem that needs to be solved urgently.

Liang Jiugong really has a candidate.

And a very good candidate in his opinion.

That is the Eighth Prince.

After all, this Eighth Prince has always been known as the "Eighth Sage King". On weekdays, when he sees this eunuch, he always calls him "Liang Da Zongguan" and respects him very much, which makes him very fond of him.

Of course, Eunuch Liang chose to stand on the side of the Eighth Prince not just because of such a little favorability - after all, he is an old man who has been with Master Kang for decades. As the saying goes, even if you haven't eaten pork, you should have seen pigs run.

Even though Eunuch Liang is not very good at judging people, following Master Kang who is proficient in this art for several decades is enough to give him a much better vision than ordinary people, and he can completely tell who has a greater chance of winning.

This is not an exaggeration. After all, the Eighth Prince had many supporters in the previous dynasty, and even the eldest prince was recruited by him and became his loyal supporter. Then it would be even easier for others.

And it's not just the eldest prince, but many other ministers are also like this, such as Tong Guowei, who openly supports the Eighth Prince and is a firm "Eighth Master Party".

This Lord Tong Guowei is a very powerful person. He supports the Eighth Prince, which shows that the Eighth Prince is a good person.

At least from Liang Jiugong's perspective, the Eighth Prince has more advantages than the other princes, and Liang Jiugong has another advantage that no one else can match.

That is his understanding of Master Kang.

As a person who has been with Master Kang since he was thirteen years old, Liang Jiugong's understanding of Master Kang can be said to be unmatched by anyone.

Therefore, he is very confident that he has made the right bet this time.

After all, only the Eighth Prince is the one that Master Kang admires the most. He

was originally the son that Master Kang admired the most, and the old man also specifically said that he would break with the prince and let the whole court directly recommend the candidate for the new prince to him. Isn't this paving the way for the Eighth Prince?

Liang Jiugong is very sure about this. After all, the Master Kang he is familiar with is like this.

But what he didn't expect was that what he thought was familiar was not real familiarity at all.

How could a boastful emperor like Master Kang be easily seen through?

Even if Master Kang really favored the Eighth Prince at the beginning, he soon found that something was wrong.

If a person is good and he discovers it himself, or just a few confidants around him say so, then it's okay. But if a person is good and everyone says he is good, then there is a problem.

As the saying goes, "No one is perfect", how could anyone be so perfect and be liked by everyone?

And he is recommended to be the prince every day, which must be a cat's pie. He

is definitely forming a clique for personal gain and developing his own power privately.

Otherwise, how could so many people support the Eighth Prince, a prince of a lowly maternal family?

And even Liang Jiugong recommended him. This is too much. We must investigate what the Eighth Prince is doing secretly.

Liang Jiugong is my trusted eunuch. He is so tight-lipped. When has he ever said a good word about anyone?

Now he has recommended the Eighth Prince three or four times in a row. This is simply too abnormal.

Master Kang is very clear about Liang Jiugong's background. He is indeed loyal to him most of the time - he can even confidently say that before the incident of recommending the Eighth Prince, Liang Jiugong was 100% loyal.

Because he has no other way to go except to be loyal to him.

But now it's different.

He actually started to recommend Old Eight, and even recommended him three times after I reprimanded him as a eunuch not to recommend people blindly.

This is a big problem.

Why did Liang Jiugong, a good man, become like this?

When did he become so close to Old Eight?

I have always known that Old Eight has good relationships with people, but it shouldn't be to this extent.

Let's not talk about that old fox Tong Guowei. Although he stood on the side of Old Eight with a strong argument, I know that he was secretly asking his nephew Longkodo to pave the way for Old Four.

So, Old Eight is really hateful. Not only did the previous dynasty get a group of people to put pressure on me, but they were even able to reach out to the harem and even to my side.

It's simply disgusting!

What is the difference between this and Yinreng, the rebellious son?

They all coveted the throne and peeped into the emperor's body, which is an unforgivable crime!

Master Kang was very angry, and the consequences were serious.

However, he did not deal with Liang Jiugong on the spot. He just ignored him for a few years, which was enough for him to bear.

As for later, after Master Kang passed away, the fourth master executed Liang Jiugong as soon as he came to power, and also packed up and dealt with the family of this eunuch Liang. That's another story.

Whether the fourth master felt that he was fulfilling the wish that his father Master Kang had not fulfilled in time, or he was simply very unhappy that eunuch Liang openly supported the eighth prince, that is all possible.

Anyway, Liang Jiugong must die.

Whether it was suicide or execution, in the end it was "sacrifice for the late emperor."

Isn't the reputation good?

You can't say that the late emperor wanted to kill you at that time, but he thought that you were a eunuch and couldn't cause any big trouble. In addition, you had followed the late emperor for decades. Even if you had no merit, you had worked hard. Considering the old friendship, he didn't kill you for the time being.

Now that he is gone, how can you live alone?

Just for the old man's kindness in showing you mercy, you have to take the initiative to "die for him".

The fourth master has always done things so neatly and efficiently. Even though he has been criticized many times in history for being too cruel, ruthless, mean and ungrateful, it is undeniable that the effect is very good.

If there is a problem, just deal with it directly, and never waste yourself, which is also good.

Of course, even if this is done, the fourth master will continue to waste himself, and there is nothing that can be done about it.

In short, the great eunuch Liang Jiugong ended his life like this.

But now let’s talk about the eunuch Li Dequan in front of us. He is not the same as Liang Jiugong.

Although Liang Jiugong is his prototype, this eunuch Li did not get involved with the Eighth Prince later, but continued to maintain his original personality, closely united around Master Kang, and was loyal to him wholeheartedly.

Therefore, all his words, deeds and even thoughts are closely centered around Master Kang.

So he gave Master Kang a suggestion that he loved the most.

Take the Thirteenth Prince with you.

When Master Kang heard this, he was very happy. He still had to take the lovely Thirteenth Prince with him.

But what was the reason?

Li Dequan said nothing about this, but smiled naively and said, "I think His Majesty will be happier if the Thirteenth Prince goes with him. Other servants don't understand, but since His Majesty is going to go on a tour and is so busy, he must take the Thirteenth Prince with him anyway."

This is Li Dequan's cleverness.

He won't say it.

Because the Fourth Prince is calm and can stabilize the overall situation, and the legitimate son of the Lin family has some "supernatural powers" and needs to keep an eye on the construction of the "National Women's University" every day.

Only the Thirteenth Prince seems to have nothing to do with either of them. He is the most dispensable person in this team.

However, the Thirteenth Prince is not in the patrol team.

Just because he is the only one who can make Master Kang happy, he must go.

Master Kang was obviously very satisfied with Li Dequan's suggestion, so the matter was settled.

The Thirteenth Prince was summoned away from the construction site of the "National Women's University" by Master Kang with a confused look on his face, and then he quickly embarked on the journey of accompanying the emperor on tour - just like every time before, continuing to be an "evergreen tree of companionship".

Mo Yu also continued to complete the remaining work with the four great masters.

However, what Mo Yu did not expect was that the Thirteenth Prince, who was originally thought to be dispensable, was actually a core member of their preparation team.

Because on the second day after the Thirteenth Prince left Beijing, he had a quarrel with the four great masters.
