The night was already very deep, Ye Xun stood in front of the window with his hands in his hands, looking at the vast night sky outside, still without the slightest sleepiness, he used to not sleep for the sake of practice, but today he really has insomnia.

Zhu Youxiao's edict is very simple, that is, let himself send someone to protect Baozhu's family, and at the same time not allow Baozhu to find his mother-in-law's family, even if he is married, he must let the other party withdraw from his family.

Under normal circumstances, Ye Xun can't interfere in the prince's family affairs at all, and the reason why Zhu Youxiao gave the edict to Ye Xun is because Ye Xun is in charge of the factory guard with a bad reputation.

Entering the palace to be the crown princess, and then becoming the queen, this is definitely a dream for ordinary women, but Ye Xun often goes in and out of the palace, how can he not know what kind of life those so-called women with brocade clothes and jade food are living.

There are too many women in the emperor, it is impossible for him to pour all his feelings into one woman, what is the difference between a woman who marries into the palace and a widow? At the same time, you have to face the open and dark arrows of other women, and that kind of day is not something that can be described in words.

But what can Ye Xun do? It's too late to marry Baozhu now, and Baozhu's family won't agree!

Sighing slightly, it seems that it is necessary to talk to Baozhu's father, if he doesn't want his daughter to enter the palace, he will find a way to marry Baozhu in advance, so that even if Zhu Youxiao is unhappy, he can't help it.

The next day, before Ye Xun went to find Baozhu's father, Baozhu's father came to the door by himself.

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Ye Xun knew that Baozhu's father was named Zhang Guoji.

Invited Zhang Guoji to the small living room at the back, and after serving tea, Ye Xun waved his hand and drove the waiting subordinates out, and then bowed directly and said: "I offended a lot yesterday, please don't be surprised by Lord Zhang."

Zhang Guoji's face is still a little unsightly, but as Ye Xun, he can do this, if he holds it again, he will be a little ignorant.

He hugged his fists and saluted back: "Can Gonggong Ye explain what happened yesterday?" ”

Ye Xun had to admire the courage of this Zhang Guoji, and he was an ordinary person, passing by at the gate of the West Factory, I was afraid that he would have to be afraid, this old brother actually dared to ask the factory supervisor for the crime, and he was afraid that others would not even dare to think about it, and he didn't know that he was in that yamen, so he sent someone to investigate.

sighed slightly, first asked Zhang Guoji to sit down, and then said directly: "Don't hide it from Lord Zhang, the prince has taken a fancy to your daughter"

"What did you say?"

Zhang Guoji's surprise was not trivial, he suddenly stood up from the chair, and looked at Ye Xun in disbelief, at this time he didn't understand that the young man yesterday was the prince, but this matter was too incredible, how could the prince have seen his daughter? How did you get out of the palace?

But this question doesn't seem to be difficult to answer, the security in Beijing is quite good, and it's common for my daughter to go out shopping or something.

And with Ye Xun, a famous eunuch, here, isn't it easy for the prince to get out of the palace!

"To tell you the truth, I did have a few encounters with another daughter, but people like me are not allowed to have too many ideas, and at the same time I don't want your daughter to enter the palace, so before the palace sends someone to propose, I suggest that you settle the relationship with your daughter as soon as possible."

Ye Xun said very calmly, without the slightest hint of persecution.

It is said that the face is born from the heart, and the eyes are the windows of the soul, and from a person's eyes, you can see whether the person's heart is pure and good.

Zhang Guoji met Ye Xun's honest eyes, knowing that he was wrong to blame, and people really didn't mean to kidnap their daughter.

Zhang Guoji is now the director of the frame department of the Ministry of War, a small official with a big sesame, but he is a square person, and he has been in the capital for a long time, how can he not know what the emperor's women are like.

Thinking of this, he hugged his fist at Ye Xun and said, "It's wrong to blame my father-in-law, I'll come back another day to ask for guilt."

Without waiting for Ye Xun's reaction, he turned around and left in a hurry, as Ye Xun said, this matter really can't be delayed.

Looking at Zhang Guoji's distant back, Ye Xun shook his head, he could only help here.

At this moment, I suddenly heard a sound of footsteps, and then I saw a fan walking in quickly.

"Father-in-law, a few people outside the door, put down two boxes and left, we asked them, they said it was a gift for the father-in-law, the villain did not dare to move, and asked the father-in-law to make it clear"

After listening to the report of his subordinates, Ye Xun was also stunned, and said in his heart, is there such a gift?

"Did anyone say that it was the adult's subordinate?"

"They only said that they would give gifts to their father-in-law, and nothing else"

Ye Xun nodded, and motioned to Fanzi to lead the way, he had too many enemies, and some things had to be careful.

The box had been carried into the courtyard, and the surrounding area was closely guarded by the fans.

Ye Xun took a spear from Fanzi's hand, then stood at a safe distance and used the tip of the spear to pick the lid open.

As the lid of the box was opened, a silver light suddenly flashed inside, but it turned out to be a whole box of silver, and when the other box was opened, it was also silver.

Looking at the two boxes of silver, Ye Xun couldn't help but smile knowingly, this is the benefit of power, if he is just an ordinary eunuch, or he is still the guard of Liaodong, how can these bigwigs in the capital be so easy?

Today seems to be a good day for gifts, in the morning, someone sent silver, more than 20 boxes of silver soon piled up in the warehouse of the West Factory, and no one left a word.

Mu Zheng was stupid, the news of the maritime merchant was spread by him, could it be that Ye Xun used this to extort so much silver? It's too easy, isn't it?

Ye Xun patted Mu Zheng's shoulder and said with a smile: "No matter what time you are, you must remember that only by knowing yourself and knowing your opponent can you survive a hundred battles, and you will go and send one and a half million taels of silver to Lord Li of the household department, and send the rest to my house."

Ye Xun didn't mean to divide the money, this would encourage the unhealthy tendencies of his subordinates, it was enough for him to be an immoral person in the West Factory, and others would never do it.

Immediately, Ye Xun ordered someone to send a stack of confessions to Zhang Weixian's mansion, and at the same time told the old man that the maritime merchant had gone to Beiyang and would never come back.

At this time, there are only the East and the South Sea, how can the North Ocean be said? Ye Xun just used this statement to tell them that this person has disappeared, and it is up to them next, if Ye Xun is not satisfied, that person may come back.

The next step is to choose who will participate in the sea transport.

Like in Liaodong, Ye Xun often lamented that there were too few talents around him, and there was no shortage of people who were charging into battle, but there was too much shortage of resourceful talents.

What is Cheng Yu doing?

Ye Xun knew that the factory guard had a bad reputation, so he didn't dare to ask Cheng Yu for help, but it should be okay to manage shipping, right?

Ye Xun knew that Cheng Yu could be found there, so he ordered Hu Jiucheng to send someone to find him.

As soon as Hu Jiucheng went out, he heard Mu Zheng say outside the door: "Father-in-law, Your Majesty sent someone to summon you into the palace to discuss matters"...
