Minister Yan Jingming asked all the eunuchs in the palace to have a physical examination again to see if there was any false eunuch. This can well prove that there are no men in the harem, and the relationship between Cixi and eunuchs is innocent.

As a woman, Cixi loved eunuchs very much, for example, An Dehai, Li Lianying, Yin Liu and so on, perhaps because of political problems or because of her own psychological problems.

Cixi didn't have a husband at a young age. She likes eunuchs so much that some people will inevitably wonder if these eunuchs are fake, and they will suspect that these eunuchs are Toy Boy raised by Cixi, not eunuchs, but men.

At that time, there was a rumor between An Dehai and Cixi that An Dehai, relying on Cixi's favor, did not know how to restrain himself and did whatever he wanted. He was very ostentatious outside, went out of the Forbidden City without permission, and was finally killed by Shandong Governor Ding Baozhen.

When An Dehai died, she died, but people spread that An Dehai was false eunuch, and she didn't clean herself, so she was loved by Cixi. Yan Jingming was very angry after hearing this. He asked all the eunuchs in the palace to have a physical examination again in order to give justice to Cixi and quell the gossip.

Generally, eunuchs must be castrated before entering the palace, and then the "eunuch" will sign the document as a guarantee. If a mistake occurs, both eunuchs and "eunuchs who are clean" will face the crime of decapitation, thus putting an end to the problems in false eunuch.

Another physical examination is the best proof of the relationship between Cixi and the eunuch. As a party, Cixi has nothing to say, so she let Yan Jingming do it.

After another physical examination, it is true that there is no false eunuch in the harem. Yan Jingming proved Cixi's innocence, but it was a serious injury and an insult to the eunuchs, which was to add salt to their wounds.
