Chapter 556: News from the King of Letters

The snow and ice are melting, the earth is springing, and although the temperature is still a little low, the air is already filled with the smell of earth, and it is clear that the pace of spring is a little impatient.

Ye Xun and Baozhu walked hand in hand in the corridor, although there was no wind and snow, there was no dissatisfaction with a strong affection in their eyes and smile.

In front of Ye Xun, Baozhu was a little woman who couldn't hide something in her heart, and she didn't take a few steps before she said Mu Zheng's words and her worries.

Ye Xun pursed his lips and said: "The world is bustling, all for profit, these guys only think about how to make their official position go further, but they never think about how capable they are."

Baozhu suddenly said: "It turns out that the husband has long known about the situation in the court, which is really bad enough, causing people to worry in vain."

"Many times, once a thing becomes a habit, everyone will take it for granted, before I formed a cabinet, others think it is normal, this time several ministers fell together, others thought that a new cabinet would soon be produced, but I just didn't let them get their way"

Although Baozhu has not been listening to politics for a long time, Bing Xue is smart, and before Ye Xun's words fell, she heard the problem.

"Husband, the emperor is still young, without the assistance of the cabinet, and the husband can't appear in the court, I'm a woman, I'm afraid I can't handle so many complicated things, or let the courtiers send the folds to the harem, and the husband is responsible for handling it, and the external claim is that I approved it, do you think it's good?"

Baozhu's words can be regarded as saying to Ye Xun's heart, his son has not grown up, and it is inconvenient for him to come forward, and at the same time he does not want the cabinet to decentralize power, and the current proposal of Baozhu is obviously the best way.

sighed slightly, and said: "It's just that I'm suffering you, but you can also accumulate some experience from it, and when it's inconvenient for me in the future, I can teach Zhen'er."

Baozhu nodded, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, and his lips moved, as if he wanted to say something.

Ye Xun didn't pay attention to Baozhu's expression, and said to himself: "I'm going to take Yun Niang to Jiangnan again, there are still some finishes over there that haven't been done, when I'm not there, ask Lord Fang and Lord Yuan for more trouble, I will tell them not to mention the matter of forming a cabinet again, the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites have left and right attendants to maintain the operation, nothing can go wrong, on the contrary, these people will definitely work harder in order to get on top."

Although Ye Xun was teaching with his heart, Baozhu's mind was obviously not on this.

"Husband, you, you said that if the emperor knows that you are his father in the future, what will he, he do to you?"

When she asked this sentence tremblingly, tears were already shining in Baozhu's beautiful big eyes, she had lived in the deep palace all the year round, but she had never experienced it, and she had heard everything she should have heard, especially those things that killed each other between fathers and sons and brothers for the throne, which always made her heart tremble, and she never wanted this kind of thing to happen to her.

Ye Xun gently held the jewel in his arms, wiped away the tears from the corners of the bead's eyes with his hand, and said softly: "Don't worry!" This kind of thing will not happen in our house, I have already thought about where to go, and when my son can run the government on his own, that is, when we leave, we will create a new world of our own."

Although she knew that Ye Xun would not lie to her, this matter was still like a pimple, and Hengheng was in her heart...

On the first day of April, Ye Xun finally returned to his mansion from the palace, and asked the old housekeeper that during his absence, the threshold was about to be broken, and all kinds of gifts at home were about to pile up into a hill.

The news that Ye Xun was going to go down to the south of the Yangtze River again had been conveyed to Xiang Biao by Hu Jiucheng, and there was no need to ask anything from Xichang, and he was about to send someone to find Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan, but Tian Ergeng was the first to come to the door.

The guards of the inner palace are from the West Factory, and the outer ones are still Jinyi guards, so it is not surprising that Tian Ergeng can know Ye Xun's whereabouts.

Sent someone to invite Tian Ergeng into the study, and as soon as the subordinate brought tea and went down, Tian Ergeng said with a serious face: "Father-in-law, there is reliable news, someone saw King Xin at Jinling Wharf."

Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, you must know that since Zhu Youzhen was robbed, the brothers in the West Factory, including the Weizi Battalion, have been secretly looking for his whereabouts, but they have never gained anything, but they didn't expect Jinyiwei to receive the news first.

Seeing that Ye Xun didn't seem to believe it, Tian Ergeng scratched his head and said with a little embarrassment: "It's not that the lower officials want to compete with Master Hu and them, but the lower officials know that their father-in-law has always been worried about this matter, so they are more concerned."

Ye Xun smiled, in history, this guy is a ruthless master, and he has done a lot of things without virtue, but it is undeniable that this guy is indeed very capable.

"Know where he went to sea?"

"The brothers have privately checked that the merchant ship he took was on the Nanyang line, but it is difficult to say where this person will disembark."

"Which boat belongs to?"

"Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, Shen Dong's family"

Listening to Tian Ergeng's words, Ye Xun couldn't help but be stunned again, the Shen family of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce, isn't that the Shen Changshan family? It shouldn't be! With Shen Changshan's shrewdness, how could he be involved in such a thing?

Staring at Tian Ergeng, he asked in a deep voice, "Is the news accurate?" What else did you find? ”

The relationship between himself and Shen Changshan, it is impossible for Tian Ergeng not to know, since this is the case, there is no possibility of framing the blame, but it is not ruled out that it is indeed Shen Changshan's doing, and if he does not put his eggs in one basket, the rich gentry and wealthy families of all generations will have this problem.

Tian Ergeng nodded and said: "The commander of Jinling Nanzhen Fu is the righteous brother of the lower official, and he will never dare to slack off on the affairs of his father-in-law, according to his report, the Shen family has always had secret contacts with an organization called Xingming Chamber of Commerce in Nanyang, because they are far away from the ocean, and the brothers don't know much about that chamber of commerce, if they hadn't discovered that person, they wouldn't even know that there was such a chamber of commerce."

Ye Xun knew that the Nanyang mentioned by Tian Ergeng was probably Luzon or Brunei, which was also an important hub for Sino-Western trade, especially the Strait of Malacca, which was a necessary shipping route.

Regardless of whether Shen Changshan was involved in this matter or not, he obviously hid a lot of things from Ye Xun.

Xingming Chamber of Commerce!

There is a problem when you hear this name, the Ming Dynasty has not lost the country, do you need to revitalize it? If you really have that kind of thought, why don't you just go back to the mainland?

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Tian's martial arts position has reached its peak, so there should be one title missing, right?" If Brother Tian intends to go to the local government as an official, my father can also go to the Queen Mother for you."

Hearing Ye Xun's words, Tian Ergeng couldn't help but be overjoyed, this effort was not in vain, but the Supreme Commander of Jinyiwei, is he still interested in being the angry magistrate?

At the moment, he said without hesitation: "Xiaguan is a hereditary military position, and I dare not give it up rashly"

Saying this is tantamount to telling Ye Xun, get me a knighthood! I'm not interested in magistrates.

"My father knows, go back and wait with peace of mind, and there will be a will come to your house soon."

"Grandpa Xie mentions"

Tian Ergeng was so happy that he almost didn't hug Ye Xun and kiss the two of them, you must know that the Ming Emperor was relatively stingy, and after the founding of the country, there were few knights.

Ye Gonggong doesn't care about those, he has to be rewarded for his merits, not only Tian Ergeng, but also those civil and military generals who followed him from Liaodong must also be rewarded...
