This year seems to be destined to be an unquiet year, as Ye Xun expected, the rumors made by him himself, after they spread that day, soon caused great panic among the scholars.

For a while, who still had the heart to crusade against Ye Xun for covering up his subordinates, some went to their division commander to inquire about the situation, and some directly found Guozi Priest Wine and asked for a reasonable explanation.

Guozi's sacrificial wine is equivalent to the current Minister of Culture, and when he heard the news, he was blinded, what is this and that? Who made this decision, and how did he not know?

The priest couldn't come back, so he could only temporarily appease the students, and immediately came to Yang Sichang to ask what was going on.

Yang Sichang was also confused, such a big matter, it stands to reason that it must be agreed by him, but now even he doesn't know, so it can only be said that this is a rumor.

Yang Sichang understands the truth that there is no wind and no waves, but he didn't think about Ye Xun at all, in his mind, Ye Xun has enough troubles, how can he still have the heart to pay attention to the affairs of the scholars?

After sending away the wine of the country's priests, he immediately ordered the Shuntian Mansion to strictly investigate the rumor-mongers.

It's just that rumors have spread, and many of them are circulating among the scholars, and if they want to arrest people, the officials of Shuntianfu have to dare to do it!

Jinyiwei and Xichang dare, but it's a pity that people don't straighten out Tianfu at all.

It is said that rumors stop at the wise, but this rumor was deliberately created, and it was spread by the secret agents of the West Factory, which could not be stopped at all, and it had a tendency to become more and more intense.

Not to mention, Ye Xun's idea came up with a whim, and in retrospect, it really feels pretty good.

The scholars do their studies in order to serve the country in the future, but if they read too much bullshit, they will only read their brains stupidly, and they will not use their fart.

If these scholars are really allowed to go to various places for internships before the big exam, and make a cameo appearance as a teacher, whether it is for them to do academics or for the future official road, it will be of great help, and it can be said that this is the real move to win talents for the country.

This year it will definitely be too late, and when this incident subsides, let the cabinet courtiers draw up a charter.

However, Ye Xun also knows that this matter is definitely not so easy to implement, but such a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, even if it encounters some resistance, it must be done, and it is a big deal to change some obedient officials, and once this matter becomes a convention, the scholars get used to it, and slowly no one will say anything anymore.

The court on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month was disturbed by this incident, and at the same time, Wang Yin also took out the evidence provided by Ye Xun.

But when things have developed to this point, it is no longer just a matter of not dealing with the murderer, but Ye Xun has once again challenged the rights and interests of civil officials and disrupted the order of the imperial court, and it is necessary to make Ye Xun bow his head.

Wang Yin had an excuse not to come out, and Dali Siqing was even more reluctant to wade into this troubled water, so the imperial historians pointed the finger at the cabinet.

Fang Zhenru, the left capital of the Inspectorate, couldn't sit still, and after retreating from the court, he left a few people in the cabinet behind, ready to discuss this matter.

To be honest, Yang Sichang was also very dissatisfied with Ye Xun's approach this time, to put it seriously, Ye Xun was interfering with judicial fairness, and for so long, what you Ye Xun did, we all strongly supported it, and now you are fighting against the entire court because of an unpopular foreign general, isn't this too much to give face to your lords?

The seven cabinet members, Yang Sichang, Fang Zhenru, and Yuan Keli all advocated severe punishment for murderers.

Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan had already received Ye Xun's instructions and would no longer express their opinions on this matter.

Zhao Ying, the former secretary of the Ministry of Industry, has already been kicked out of the cabinet by Yang Sichang, and the current secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Yu Zhaojie, is Yang Sichang's echo worm, Yang Sichang will do whatever he asks him to do, and he will never say half a word.

The remaining Shangshu Wang Yin, who should be in charge of this matter, has decided to stay out of the matter since he read the two confessions provided by Ye Xun.

In this way, the cabinet has formed a four-to-three situation, and according to the principle of minority obeying the majority, the cabinet can directly make a decision.

Yang Sichang, who was originally in a good mood, suddenly found that without Ye Xun's support, it seemed that such a decision could not be implemented at all.

After a show of hands, the cabinet suddenly fell silent.

Looking around, Yuan Yingtai sat on a chair with his eyes closed, and no one knew what he was thinking.

Zhang Quan was looking at his fingers intently, as if his fingers would suddenly grow flowers.

Wang Yin was quite reliable, holding the book in his hand, looking at it intently, as if the content inside was so attractive to him, but he didn't realize that he didn't notice it when he took it down.

Looking at the expressions of the three people, Yuan Keli became more and more angry, he said earlier that if this matter could not be handled according to the law, he would resign and return to his hometown.

"Smack!"

slapped the table suddenly, then stood up angrily, and said loudly: "He can kill whoever he wants, and he can dispose of whoever he wants, so what do you want the laws of the court for?" What is the use of us court members? The old man is no longer waiting," he said, and turned around and left.

It's strange to say, even Yang Sichang didn't say anything to keep it, looked at Yuan Yingtai and the others coldly, and said, "Are you satisfied now?" It seems that in the future, there will be Ye Gonggong in this court, and with the help of all the adults, it doesn't matter if I wait or not."

After saying that, he glanced at Yu Zhaojie, and then turned around and walked out.

Yu Zhaojie hesitated, and finally got up and left with Yang Sichang.

The seven ministers left, and Fang Zhenru also wanted to leave, but he also knew that if he went out now, he was undoubtedly declaring war on Ye Xun.

He is the boss of the Inspectorate, and the cause and effect of the whole thing are also understood, strictly speaking, Ye Xun is indeed suspected of being domineering, but Yang Sichang and others' actions to force the palace are obviously not advisable.

Bringing one's emotions to the court is really a matter of importance, and if it is serious, it will be suspected of excluding dissent.

Although he didn't like Ye Xun's approach, in Fang Zhenru's heart, it was obvious that the unity and stability of the imperial court was the most important.

He sighed deeply and said, "Three adults, how about we go to see Grandpa Ye together?" ”

Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan had not yet spoken, but Wang Yin took the lead and said: "Lord Fang, when the lower officials went to find Ye Gonggong, Ye Gonggong's attitude was already very clear, and the whole case file Master Fang has also read it, it is important to punish the murderer, but we can't do the wrong thing that makes the relatives hurt and the enemy happy, and besides, Altan has military exploits, if he is wronged, how do those soldiers on the front line think?" ”

"Don't you see it now? This is to deal with an Altan, it is clearly aimed at Ye Gonggong, some people! It's just too self-righteous."

No one expected that Wang Yin, who has always been like a grass on the wall, would say such righteous and awe-inspiring words.

Although Fang Zhenru is the imperial history of the Zuodu of the Inspectorate, he is also a type of clumsy words.

After listening to Wang Yin's words, his mouth moved, but he didn't know how to refute Wang Yin for a while.

At this moment, a melodious bell suddenly sounded over the palace...
