The Eunuch Party

A work contracted with Qidian’s Group One editors:

Who says eunuchs ruin the country? Who says the Eunuch Faction brings calamity to the people? Let’s see a different life as a eunuch and a different legend of the Eunuch Faction through the eyes of a “fake eunuch”!

Feed the people by burning zithers and boiling cranes; seek the Way among the flowers, and all under Heaven will walk together.

Empty talk and lofty theories are the preserve of pedants; the eunuch commander bears sword and bow.

The emperor’s interests are, in fact, the people’s interests. No emperor wants his dynasty to collapse! Eunuchs are the emperor’s household servants and represent his interests. The literati and scholar-officials represent the interests of landlords and gentry. Whose interests matter more: the people’s or those of the gentry and bureaucrats?

So the claim that eunuch dominance brings disaster to the country and its people is pure nonsense. The civil officials and scholars who follow only Confucius and Mencius are the real culprits behind the people’s suffering!
