Speaking of Cold Palace, you may think of a scene in the ancient costume palace: which princess's vicious plot was made public, or she offended the emperor for some reason, and the emperor ordered her to be put in cold palace in a rage, and then the princess was put in a dark "cage" and tortured for the rest of her life. In fact, the cold palace does not refer to the specific name of a palace. Any place where concubines are raised can be called a cold palace.

From the emperor's favor to the dark cold palace, the scenery of the past is no longer there, which leads to some concubines who have been beaten into the palace going crazy and dying. However, eunuchs are vying to serve in the cold palace. Why?

For the women in the palace, losing the favor of the emperor means losing everything. In the "cold palace", they are suffering alone. I can't get out, and nobody talks to you. Being alone all day won't lead to any good results. They are deprived of their political rights for life, and I'm afraid they will never get out. A dark and damp room full of lice is their final destination. They can only survive, but they lose their lives in leftovers and endless emptiness. At this time, for them, gold and silver jewelry has really become a thing apart, even if you want to spend it. Therefore, the eunuchs who serve the concubines in the cold palace will enjoy happiness, and the concubines' gratuities will go into the eunuchs' pockets. Whatever these concubines want to do and ask for news, they have to give money to the eunuchs to help them work.

Moreover, if eunuchs serve the emperor's favorite concubines, they may be killed because of their talkativeness. These concubines in the cold palace are different. They have no power or influence. Even if they want to say something, the emperor will never hear it. Eunuchs can still live happily. When people are dying, their words are very good. These concubines who are about to end their lives have no channels to talk to, so they can only talk to eunuchs. At this time, eunuchs can also open their hearts and speak freely, and no one will know what they said.

Another reason why eunuchs are willing to treat their concubines as maids is to gain their sympathy. They have no wife and children, and they just work silently in the palace all their lives. Only by serving these concubines in the cold palace can their conditions get better and they can eat some good food and meals. Most of the property of those concubines is in the hands of these eunuchs.

What's more, the emperor will think of these concubines. If some emperors have a special liking for concubines, they will put them in the harem and let many eunuchs take care of them, because the emperor doesn't want his relatives to experience such great torture in the harem. If the emperor thinks of concubines, he will recall her from the cold palace. In this case, he may be spoiled by the emperor and eunuchs will curry favor with these concubines.

So in general, the main reason why these eunuchs are willing to serve these concubines in the cold palace is to make their lives easier. In addition, these eunuchs also want to get a lot of gold and silver jewelry. If these concubines are happy, they may be rewarded.
