Chapter 385: Rumors

In fact, Yang Sichang had wanted to talk to Ye Xun a long time ago, because he was also very curious about what this young eunuch was thinking, but he had never had the opportunity.

The old housekeeper restocked the tea, and as soon as he smelled the aroma of the tea, Yang Sichang's brows furrowed, and he turned his head and glared at the old housekeeper unhappily, it was obvious that he felt that Ye Xun was not worthy of such good tea.

It's just that the tea has been brewed, so you can't withdraw it anymore! After making a gesture of invitation to Ye Xun, he said lightly: "Say it!" What is the matter with Ye Gonggong looking for this official? ”

"Actually, it's nothing, I heard that Lord Yang has always been very unaccustomed to it, so I want to ask why"

Ye Xun didn't hide it, he directly said his intention, and because of his words, the atmosphere instantly became tense.

Yang Sichang obviously didn't expect Ye Xun to ask so directly, he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"Huh! Since Lord Yang is embarrassed to say it directly, then I'll tell you if what Lord Yang said is right."

Speaking of this, Ye Xun took a sip of tea first, praised the good tea, and continued: "As an internal prisoner, this duke obviously persuaded His Majesty to cancel the right of the celebrant to approve the red, so that the internal supervisor can no longer participate in government affairs, but this is probably the main reason why Lord Yang dislikes this duke, and when this duke was in Liaodong, he did a lot of things that violated the ban of the imperial court, which is probably one of the reasons why Lord Yang does not like this duke, what Bengong said is right?" ”

Yang Sichang obviously didn't expect Ye Xun's analysis to be so accurate, and subconsciously said: "Since my father-in-law knows everything, why do you still ask me?" ”

"Huh! Ye is just a little curious, can Lord Yang answer me, what Ye has done, can there be one thing that has brought disaster to the country and the people? ”

"I know that the reason why scholars like you dislike me is not because of what I have done, but simply because I am a eunuch, in your mind, eunuchs should honestly stay in the palace and wait for the emperor, it is undeniable that people like Wei Zhongxian do have troublesome behavior in the court, but please don't compare me with him, if I am also like that, I will not clean him up"

"Lord Yang, I know that you are an upright official, so I also came today with the greatest sincerity, the next day is not the world of a certain person, it is the world of all the people of the Ming Dynasty, the strength of the Ming Dynasty needs everyone to contribute their efforts, so I hope Lord Yang can be more tolerant"

"That's all I have to say, farewell!"

Ye Xun said that, he really stood up and walked out, and when he passed in front of the old housekeeper, he smiled and arched his hand to the old housekeeper to show his gratitude to the old housekeeper.

Yang Sichang didn't move, his mind kept echoing what Ye Xun had just said, and it could be said that Ye Xun's words just now had completely subverted Ye Xun's impression in his heart.

Some people often say how Ye Xun is domineering, but if Ye Xun is really domineering, will he use this attitude to speak to a person who hates himself?

And as Ye Xun said, so far, what he has done is not to benefit the country and the people? If it weren't for Ye Xun to turn the tide, Liaodong wouldn't be able to tell what it would be like now!

"Master, Grandpa Ye is gone"

The old butler's voice finally brought Yang Sichang back to his senses, looked at the old butler, and still asked a little stunned: "Who do you think Ye Xun is?" ”

The old housekeeper is an old family member who has followed Yang Sichang for many years, and he is one of Yang Sichang's most trusted people.

Listening to the old man's question, the old housekeeper organized the language, and then said: "Don't worry, sir, you don't usually contact the people, you don't know what the people think, in fact, as far as I know, Ye Gonggong's reputation among the people is very high, the capital is not far from Liaodong, and there are many merchants, through these people, let the people of the capital know what kind of life the people of Liaodong lived in the past, and what kind of life did Ye Gonggong live after driving away the Jurchens."

"Master, the villain doesn't know about officialdom, but the villain knows who can make the people live a good life, and whoever is a good official, whether he is a eunuch or not"

The old housekeeper's words finally touched Yang Sichang's nerves.

In the past, there was the Donglin Party to eliminate dissidents in the court, and then there was Wei Zhongxian, and then there was Wei Zhongxian to troubleshoot the dynasty, it can be said that the Ming Dynasty has reached an extremely fragile period, if it wasn't for Ye Xun's timely action, it is really hard to say what it looks like now!

Should such a person really be excluded from the imperial court?

Thinking of this, Yang Sichang's eyes also became a little confused

Leaving the Yang Mansion, Ye Xun did not go home, nor did he go to the palace, but returned directly to the West Factory.

Before he could sit down in the lobby, Hu Jiucheng came quickly, and then handed a copy of the latest news to Ye Xun.

This was a message sent by a subordinate who was waiting outside the cabinet, and it recorded in detail the words and deeds of Li Zhiwen and others today.

At the very beginning, Ye Xun has always admired Li Zhiwen, including his personality and ability to do things.

But Ye Xun found that since he asked him to form a cabinet, this old Comrade Li has also swelled up more and more, and now looking at his posture, he intends to let Ye Xun also stand aside.

Do you really think that this court will not be able to leave you?

The weather is gradually getting warmer, according to the plan, Ye Xun is planning to go to Jinzhou, but if the imperial court does not arrange it, he will definitely not stop in Jinzhou.

Throwing the information on the table, he tapped his fingers lightly on the table, and began to calculate in his heart.

"It seems that it is necessary to dissolve this restless cabinet, but Li Zhiwen doesn't seem to have any tricks, how can he be convinced?"

Li Zhiwen is not full of questions like Shao Fuzhong, he can be regarded as a good official, so Ye Xun will not kill him.

After pondering for a long time, the corners of Ye Xun's mouth finally showed an evil smile.

Early the next morning, a secret rumor suddenly circulated in the capital from somewhere, saying that Li Zhi, who was the ruling secretary of the cabinet of the dynasty, asked Lord Li if he had a good relationship with Longyang, and during the mourning of the first emperor, he also had a close relationship with a certain male pet and so on.

In fact, it is not a secret that the dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital raise **, and they are even regarded as elegant by some shameless officials.

But this kind of thing can be said in private, but it must never be put on the table, especially for people with status and status like Li Zhiwen.

In fact, no one knows whether Li is such a person, but spreading rumors has always been a good habit for people, especially when it comes to people who people usually dare not talk about.

Soon, this rumor spread all over the capital, and it became more and more evil, and then the imperial history began to impeach Li Beiwen, thinking that he, as the head of the civil service, caused such a scandal, and was no longer suitable to stay in the cabinet, and even should take the blame and resign.

Li asked not to mention how much he was holding his breath these days, who hated him so much, and wanted to deduct such a basin on him! It's really puzzling.

Comrade Lao Li is also practical enough, he never thought that such a shady idea was thought up by Ye Xun.

After feeling the strange eyes of his colleagues for a few days, as well as the continuous impeachment of the imperial historians, Li Chengwen finally couldn't help but submit his resignation to the emperor.

Of course, Li Zhiwen also knew that this resignation was not so much handed over to the emperor as to Ye Xun, and in his heart, he was not without illusions, thinking that Ye Xun would keep him, which is called retreating as advance, a common routine used by officials.

But he didn't want his resignation to be handed over on the front foot, and the emperor approved it on the back foot
