Chapter 223: Recommendations
In all dynasties, there has been a group of strong, the most stubborn, and at the same time the most conservative group of people, we can call it royalists.
Wanli's eldest son Zhu Changluo has always been treated by Wanli, as the crown prince, he can't enjoy the treatment that the prince deserves, and he lives in trembling every day, not to mention how sad it is.
But such a person is supported by almost all the courtiers, which has nothing to do with his ability or his mother's family background, but because of his status as the eldest son, which is a tradition passed down by the Han people for thousands of years, and has long been ingrained in everyone's heart.
Although the courtiers all support this prince, there is also a very real problem in front of him, that is, Wanli is still looking for opportunities for his third son Zhu Changxun so far.
Even Ye Xun himself thought that if he had been warm with Zhu Changxun at that time, maybe Wanli would not have transferred him back from Liaodong.
Now Wanli has sent Cui Wensheng, who is not a bullshit, to Liaodong, and he has the idea of cultivating power for the third child of his family.
Just imagine, once Cui Wensheng controls the military power of Liaodong, he can transfer the army of Liaodong to control Gyeonggi when Wanli is dying, and then make a change of day to push Zhu Changxun to the position of emperor.
Although these are all hypothetical, it is not impossible to happen, and the battle for succession has always been the most cruel and bloody.
And these are actually what Wanli wants Ye Xun to do the most, because he knows that Cui Wensheng is afraid that he will not be able to complete this task, but unfortunately, Ye Xun also supports Zhu Changluo.
Now Zhang Weixian took the initiative to woo Ye Xun, the idea is the same as Wanli, Ye Xun is a eunuch, and sooner or later he will return to the palace, looking at Ye Xun's means in Liaodong, it is not impossible to sit in the position of the boss and the eunuch, and as long as Ye Xun can be pushed up, it can be regarded as finding the most reliable talisman for Zhu Changluo.
The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit.
Once the new emperor successfully ascends the throne, Zhang Weixian, these royalists, of course, are the first ministers of the new emperor, and the benefits are endless.
Now Ye Xun's answer can be said to basically satisfy Zhang Weixian, after talking for a while, both of them are a little tired, Zhang Weixian is tired, and Ye Xun is tired.
took out a paper roll from the lattice next to the table and handed it to Ye Xun, and said, "The old man knows that you are not the person who sent the fence, it just so happens that I have an empty house, you can take a look at it in two days, and if you are satisfied, you will move over."
After talking for a long time, only this sentence was the most to Ye Xun's thoughts, and he was not polite at the moment, took the deed into his arms, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to talk to Guogong, you know what I'm thinking"
Zhang Weixian waved his hand and said, "Don't come here with the old man, go quickly!" Lest the old man regret it for a while, this house will cost a lot of silver."
Ye Xun smiled slightly, turned around and left after giving a salute, and then walked towards the courtyard where he and his subordinates lived temporarily under the guidance of the housekeeper.
After seeing Ye Xun leave, Zhang Weixian also left the study, turned left and right, and soon came to a flower hall, where there were already several old men waiting here.
As soon as he saw Zhang Weixian come back, a thin old man said with a little displeasure: "It's just a eunuch, can you pay so much attention to a national prince?" ”
If you know this group of old people, you will definitely be shocked, because all the people sitting here are noble relatives with knighthoods, and don't look at these people have been raised at home, but they all have a certain strength in the army, and most of the generals such as commanders and commanders in various parts of the Ming Dynasty are from these people's disciples.
After Zhang Weixian sat down, he first took a sip of tea to moisten his throat before saying: "Brother Hou doesn't know, I am confident that my old eyes are not dazzling, and this person's ability is by no means under Feng Bao back then."
Listening to Zhang Weixian's words, everyone frowned, Feng Bao was definitely a powerful figure in the early years of Wanli, if he knew the convergence point, maybe he would not have died in Nanjing.
These people sitting here can be said to know a little bit about the methods of Feng Bao's eunuch back then, so Zhang Weixian said that Ye Xun was comparable to Feng Bao, which immediately made everyone come to their senses.
At this time, a slightly chubby old man said: "Brother Zhang wants to push him to the position of the boss and the supervisor?" ”
Zhang Weixian shook his head and said, "He is still too young, His Majesty will not agree, but the old man has already thought of a place for him."
It turned out that Zhang Weixian really intended to let Ye Xun help him train the Fifth Military Camp, but Ye Xun's words had completely dispelled his thoughts.
Obviously, with Ye Xun's means, if he is allowed to enter the Fifth Military Camp, I am afraid that all the ugly things in the Beijing camp will be shaken out, and no one will want to end up at that time.
Royal Palace, West Warm Pavilion.
After listening to Xu Xianchun's report, Wanli groaned slightly, and then nodded: "Got it, you can go!" There's no need to spy on him when the old man is here."
Xu Xianchun agreed, and then bowed down and retreated, until he came to the outside of the palace, feeling the hot sun at noon, but his heart was cold, he knew very well that he was afraid that he would completely offend Ye Xun this time, should he think of a way to remedy it?
Xu Xianchun knows very well that there are no eternal enemies and no permanent friends in officialdom, it depends on how you use this relationship.
And from Wanli's attitude towards Ye Xun, Xu Xianchun knew that Ye Xun would definitely have another day.
Xu Xianchun left, and Wanli ordered the eunuch to tell Concubine Zheng that he would not go to her today.
Because of Li Guang's matter, Concubine Zheng Guifei has been angry with Wanli, and Wanli's temper has also come up, and she simply disappeared.
After taking a short nap, Wanli came to the Imperial Garden and took a turn, seemingly wandering aimlessly, but in fact, he was also thinking about Ye Xun.
This kid is so non-stop, shouldn't he find something to do? Why don't you send him to Nanjing?
As soon as this idea came out, it was rejected by Wanli himself, and the Liaodong side has not stopped, in case Yuan Yingtai and Cui Wensheng can't do it, they have to go to Ye Xun, so they can't let him go too far.
Wanli had just received a secret report from Cui Wensheng, saying that Yuan Yingtai did not support him in purging Ye Xun's subordinates, so he asked Wanli to give him greater rights.
Seeing this secret report, Wanli's anger didn't come to one place, he couldn't do such a trivial thing, and he was embarrassed to come to me? Let's stay there honestly, and when we have the right person, we'll get this waste back.
Just as he was thinking about it, the little eunuch came to report, and the British public Zhang Weixian asked to see him.
Hearing that Zhang Weixian was here, Wanli couldn't help but be stunned, but soon understood that he must have come for Ye Xun's business.
came just in time, just ask him what his idea is, why do you want to take Ye Xun in? Then he ordered someone to summon Zhang Weixian to the imperial study to meet him.
There was not much time, and before Wanli's ass could sit hot, he saw Zhang Weixian bowing in under the guidance of the inner servant.
"See Your Majesty!"
"Aiqing, you came just in time, I also want to send someone to find you, let's talk about it! What's going on with you and Ye Xun? ”
Zhang Weixian said in his heart that Ye Xun is not a woman, what can I do with him?
He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, Ye Xun has meritorious service to the imperial court, if he is too cold, I am afraid that it will chill the soldiers on the front line!" Therefore, the old minister dared to take it to the old minister's house first, and in the future, he would have time to report it, and ask His Majesty to forgive his sins."
Zhang Weixian said tactfully, but the meaning is very clear, that is, Ye Xun is meritorious, if the persecution is too much, let those soldiers in Liaodong know, who is willing to serve your Zhu family?
Wanli naturally knew the meaning of Zhang Weixian's words, nodded and said, "Tell me why you came to me!" ”
"The old minister felt that he couldn't snub a meritorious minister like Ye Xun, so the minister felt that he was more suitable for a position"...
