Chapter 692: Temporary Diversion
Comrade Lao Fang can be regarded as Ye Xun's confidant, but he only knows Ye Xun's personality, but how can he figure out Ye Xun's true thoughts?
Through the performance of the courtiers who came to visit him today, Lao Fang can see that I am afraid that a new round of leaf dumping is coming again.
But why don't these people understand, although Ye Xun seems to want to delegate power, but apart from him, who can mobilize the army? Without the support of the military, the civilian officials would have been just screaming after all.
In addition to some ordinary officials here, like a few Shangshu, he recommended them to Ye Xun, which can be regarded as his party, but it seems that Ye Xun said that he is most disgusted with partisan disputes, and now this kid is dismantling the West Factory and going out again, isn't he playing the trick of retreating to advance?
Thinking of this possibility, Fang Zhenru couldn't help but be shocked, could it be that Ye Xun had already included himself in the ranks of eradication?
Thinking about Ye Xun's previous skills and style, this possibility is extremely great, and the more he thinks about it, the more afraid he becomes.
The older a person gets, the more afraid he is of death, not to mention that he is still a high-ranking official, and once people's thoughts are drilled, they will become more and more paranoid.
After leaving a few Shangshu and driving the other officials away, Fang Zhenru ordered his henchmen to guard the door, and no one was allowed to enter without his permission.
Then he said with a gloomy face: "Everyone, Ye Xun is afraid that he is going to do something to us."
Sitting there were Chen Shancai, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, Liu Wenguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Li Yong, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and Gao Wengang, the secretary of the Criminal Department.
Chen Shancai frowned and said, "Lord Fang, this is a bit too much, right?" Although Gonggong Ye is a little arrogant, he is a downright person, and he usually never interferes with us, could it be that today he is just discussing some things in your mansion, and he will start with us? ”
Chen Shancai couldn't stop shaking his head, he couldn't be regarded as the descendant of Shang Zhenru, it was recommended by the old party, but without Ye Xun's approval, he couldn't sit in his current position at all, so he was still very grateful to Ye Xun in his heart.
Li Yong, the secretary of the Ministry of Works, shook his head and said, "Lord Chen misunderstood what Lord Fang meant, don't you think Gonggong Ye has been very abnormal recently?" With Ye Gonggong's person, if he sees us as a party, what do you think he will do? ”
As soon as he heard Li Yong say this, Chen Shancai suddenly understood, because he was usually close to Fang Zhenru and others, and he also helped each other in the court, and it seemed that it was not an exaggeration to say that they were one party.
Thinking of Ye Xun's methods of dealing with political enemies, these people here were not calm.
Fang Zhenru is old and refined, and he sees everyone's reaction in his eyes, and can't help nodding secretly, people's hearts are available.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Ye Xun is in charge of the military, without the support of the army, it is useless for us to have any ideas, but we can't sit idly by, I don't know if you have found it, it seems that our Majesty has become more and more dissatisfied with what Ye Xun has done, so if we want to save our lives, we must get the support of Your Majesty"
Liu Wenguang frowned and said: "Your Majesty is young, and you are not in charge of the government, even if you get Your Majesty's support, it is useless!" ”
Fang Zhenru smiled slightly and said: "Before, the old man and Mrs. Liu went to Liaodong to pick up His Majesty back, and the old man suddenly found that His Majesty was actually talented, although he was young, but his ideas were no longer inferior to adults, so why couldn't he let His Majesty take charge in advance?" ”
Old man Fang actually didn't say a layer of vague meaning, that is, once they succeeded in letting the little emperor take charge of the government, they would also have the skill of the dragon, and the little emperor would definitely look at them differently, and at that time, wouldn't they be able to call the wind and rain when they were in the court?
None of the people sitting here are stupid, as soon as they heard it, they understood what Comrade Lao Fang meant, strictly speaking, this is indeed a good idea, just thinking about Ye Xun's strength, everyone is still a little bottomless in their hearts.
Looking at everyone's expressions, Old Man Fang was not discouraged, and said slowly: "There is a saying that we are united, Ye Xun's departure can be regarded as giving us a chance, as long as it is planned properly, nothing is impossible, and you might as well think about it, do we still have a way out?" ”
Everyone thought, yes! There have been a lot of things in the imperial court recently, Ye Xundong has been on a trip to the west, so he can still take care of the imperial court, once he frees his hands and is ready to start attacking the matter of officials forming a party, these people are afraid that they will not be able to run.
Maybe he was pressed on his head by a eunuch for too long, or maybe he was a thief, but after Fang Zhenru finished speaking, everyone remained silent very tacitly...
The West Factory was withdrawn, but it didn't mean that Ye Xun didn't know anything, but just like the envoy of Annan said that he was nine thousand years old, after receiving the secret report, he just smiled slightly, and then took Da Yu'er on the journey.
If you want people to perish, you must first make them crazy, and with the support of the army, no one can go against the sky.
Ye Xun actually wanted to test his son's coping ability through this incident.
Isn't it cruel to put such a big deal on a child under the age of eight?
Wrong, in the emperor, there should never be the word cruelty...
The news of Ye Xun's departure from Beijing again soon spread all over the country, in fact, the people who paid attention to Ye Xun's whereabouts, except for local officials, the rest were those who had a heart.
Everyone knew that Ye Xun was going to Annan by sea boat, but they didn't know that Ye Xun and his party had just passed Zhending Mansion, and the team was divided into two.
To put it in my heart, a little Annan has not been put in Ye Xun's eyes yet, and the people in that place are like little devils, they are all white-eyed wolves who can't be raised, and it's good to hit a dog's head out of a human head.
Ye Xun wants Hue Mansion, whether it is the Le family or the Hu family, as long as Hue Mansion can be ceded out, Ye Xun will support him.
There is Tian Siqing on the sea, and on the land side, in Zhennanguan, where Daming borders Annan, Qin Liangyu's other younger brother, Qin Minping, has been ordered to gather troops there and can enter Annan at any time.
In this case, there is no problem with whether Ye Xun goes to Annam or not, and his main target this time is the Mughals.
And the reason why he chose to go by land was for the increasingly restless Dolgon.
Dolgon commanded 10,000 iron horsemen, Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong as his deputies, and the three of them have always cooperated very well.
On the first night of Ye Xun's departure from Beijing, Ye Xun suddenly received news that Dolgon seemed to be interested in peace talks with Sha Jahan, and before that, Dolgon ordered Li Zicheng and Zhang Xianzhong to lead their 3,000 men to Bengal under the pretext of supporting Bashik.
Ye Xun knew very well that the reason for this change was probably related to Huang Taiji.
Huang Taiji was driven to Japan, and seeing that the counterattack on the Ming Dynasty was hopeless, he began to think about adding blockage to Ye Xun, and Dolgon was the only bargaining chip that could be used, wouldn't it be a pity not to use it?
As people often say, the people who know you best are not necessarily the people around you, but are likely to be your enemies.
Ye Xun and Huang Taiji are facing each other in the air, and they can indeed be regarded as long-time confidants...
I want to talk about "The Fake Eunuch of the Ming Dynasty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find a confidant~
