All the way south, the breath of spring is getting stronger and stronger, and the tenacious grass has broken through the soil one after another, and has begun to show its delicate posture, and the earth has taken on a green surface as far as the eye can see.

Ye Xun and his entourage still did not go directly to Jiangnan this time, but the first stop was Dengzhou.

Two hundred guards, plus Xiao Luo and Yun Niang, the standard configuration for every trip.

Governor Denglai is Zhang Guanchang, who was promoted by Ye Xun, a guy who loves to engage in intrigue and trickery, and he has always been secretly presiding over the matter of provoking the Japanese emperor and the Tokugawa family.

This is also a trustworthy subordinate, Ye Xun never conducts surprise inspections for such subordinates.

The two met, and after a simple politeness, they came to Dengzhou Wharf together.

After the lifting of the sea embargo, Dengju was also a trading port and an important port for the exchange of information, as the main trading objects here were merchants from Japan and Korea.

From time to time, ships came and went in and out of the port, there were officials of the maritime administration on the wharf to inspect and collect taxes, there were ships of the inspection department cruising on the sea, and several large naval warships docked on the other side of the wharf.

Now that the Liaodong Navy is guarding the sea, there are very few cases of merchant ships encountering pirates, Zhang Guanchang told Ye Xun that these warships are docked to replenish supplies.

Everything is so orderly, it is not difficult to see Zhang Guanchang's ability from this alone.

Standing on the pier and feeling the cold and salty sea breeze is also very refreshing.

"That guy from the Ninth Tail should know about Tokugawa's joint dispatch of troops with us, right?"

"He doesn't know, I'll let him know, in order to encourage him, I also specially ordered someone to pretend to be a nobleman in the capital, resell him a batch of gunpowder, as long as you send a signal from your side, he will definitely send someone to raid the backyard of the Tokugawa family"

Ye Xun contacted Tokugawa Hidetada to jointly exterminate Ono, but secretly instructed Zhang Guanchang to instigate Emperor Hou Nineo to attack the Tokugawa family's territory when the Tokugawa family was empty.

I have to say that this idea is indeed a bit negative, but who is also the score?

"Huh! You guy, you won't let the Ninth Tail really destroy the Tokugawa family, right? ”

"That's definitely not going to happen, that would be against my father-in-law's original intention, and my subordinates also heard one thing, that is, the Ninth Tail plans to marry you, I don't know if it's true or not?"

Zhang Guanchang's eyeliner on the Japanese side is better than Jinyiwei and Xichang, how can Fangzi and Yunniang not know about it? So that's knowingly asking.

Ye Xun didn't tear him down, smiled slightly, and said, "You guy doesn't need to use this method to remind me, the reason why I came to you first this time is also for this reason."

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, turned his head to look at Zhang Guanchang, and said slowly: "I want Japan to have a female emperor, what do you think?" ”

Zhang Guanchang was slightly stunned, then came to his senses, pondered for a moment, suddenly smiled, and said: "The knife is in my hand, who do you want to be the emperor, isn't it a matter of your words!" It's just that this matter also needs to be operated in advance, don't worry, my father-in-law will leave this matter to me."

Things gather people in groups, Ye Xun likes to use Zhang Guanchang because he can better understand his intentions.

And the reason why Zhang Guanchang is loyal to Ye Xun is a kind of mentality of dying for a confidant.

Having decided on this, the two continued to walk around the pier.

"Have you ever heard of the Xingming Chamber of Commerce?"

"I've heard that it seems to be a chamber of commerce set up by some Ming people in Nanyang, which sounds very good, because of various reasons, some Han people are displaced overseas and can't go back, and they are in a foreign country, so they will inevitably be bullied, and they can better resist the oppression of the locals by forming a group."

"It's good, but if it's used by someone with a heart, I'm afraid it's not like that."

Speaking of which, Ye Xun told Zhang Guanchang about Zhu Youzhen again.

Zhang Guanchang also frowned after hearing this, twisted a few rat whiskers on his chin and groaned for a moment, and said: "Taking Zhu Youzhen away is obviously trying to use his identity to make a fuss, in this case, the organizer of the Xingming Chamber of Commerce will have a problem, and he really didn't pay attention to them before."

Suddenly, he patted his head and continued: "Father-in-law, could it be that those people from the Donglin Party are doing trouble?" ”

Not to mention, after Zhang Guanchang's reminder, Ye Xun also woke up.

The person who is interested in Zhu Youzhen must be his opponent, and he must be someone who is familiar with the inside story of the imperial court, and among them, the Donglin Party members have no possibility of doing this, because in that regard, they can be regarded as their sworn enemies.

Ye Xun suddenly had a feeling in his heart that it seemed that Wei Zhongxian's methods were much more effective than him in dealing with these Donglin Party members, at least Wei Zhongxian would not have so many troubles.

It really fulfilled the saying, "Kindness is sin!" ”

When I returned to the temporary residence, I saw Xiao Luo coming over with a mysterious face.

"Yun Niang seems to have it?"

After listening to Xiao Xun's words, Ye Xun's mouth suddenly opened wide, and he was about to stuff goose eggs.

Yun Niang was carried to bed by Ye Xun with the permission of Baozhu, but the time was not very long, counting the days, didn't it be the first time she was directly pregnant? This is too high!

Barely suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, he strode inside, and after a few steps, he suddenly thought, oops, it's not good! Originally, she planned to let Yun Niang be the emperor of Japan, but now that Yun Niang also has her own children, how can she be this female emperor? Do you want to let Yun Niang's child be the one?

Thinking about his own child being the emperor of Japan, and the other child being the emperor of the Central Plains Dynasty, I felt strange for a while.

This time I didn't go to Jiangnan to play, otherwise I would have taken the Hua sisters with me, I have been running around for the past two years, and I have rarely had the opportunity to accompany them alone, in Ye Xun's heart, what I feel most owed is Baozhu and their sisters, but there is no way to do it now, so I can only make up for it slowly in the future.

In the inner room, Yun Niang was happily touching her still flat lower abdomen, her eyes were full of longing, obviously she had been looking forward to this day.

As soon as he saw Ye Xun coming in, he was busy getting up to salute, but he was held down by Ye Xun, who was hurrying over.

"Sit down, you can't move at this time, why didn't you tell me earlier, I won't take you out if you know this"

Yun Niang's face turned red, and she said in a low voice: "The concubine also just learned that the concubine entered the door the latest, but... They won't blame me, will they? ”

Isn't it! So far, the little sister of the Hua family and the little basket who entered the door at the earliest, have not moved their stomachs at all, but she, the latecomer, has taken over.

Ye Xun: "Haha! He smiled and said, "They are young, and it will hurt their bodies if they have children too early."

Speaking of this, he frowned slightly, and said: "I originally wanted to take you to sea, but now it is definitely not possible, and I will let Xiao Luo escort you back to Beijing tomorrow."

Yun Niang was in a hurry, and couldn't help grabbing Ye Xun's hand and begging: "I don't want to go back to Beijing, just let me accompany you!" Please, sir, okay? ”

Yun Niang is good at piano skills, she has always been a light and detached appearance, and she has never been coquettish in front of Ye Xun, and her shy appearance stunned Ye Xun for a while...
