Ye Yu's words are nothing more than hinting at Liu Wuyue, as long as the friendship between you and me lasts forever, then the so-called money and supplements are all small things.

It is an eternal truth that people die for money, and respect for eunuchs is Ye Yu's heart, but he has not forgotten the ingenious use of money.

has been in the officialdom for a long time, and Ye Yu has gradually gained an understanding of the knowledge in this officialdom.

As Yang Hui said back then, the excellence of knowledge in this book does not mean anything. After entering the official career, the knowledge of officialdom is a big article to be carefully pondered.

People who are upright and don't bend and don't know how to be flexible, even if they have a full stomach, are just a flash in the pan. Ye Yu didn't want to be such a person, because it was not a wise move in terms of public or private.

It is said that the Song Dynasty had Bao Zheng and the Ming Dynasty had Hai Rui, but these two people are not destined to be people who have made great achievements, because character determines a person's life.

When it comes to merit and demerits, although these two people have extremely high prestige among the people, they can be said to be very small when it comes to the great achievements of the society, and even every mediocre prime minister is higher than these two.

Ensuring the political performance of the people on one side is not the so-called great merit, but the real merit of governing the peace of the world. The speed of the moment is not the work of great wisdom, so for 5,000 years in China, the famous prime ministers are smooth people who know how to be flexible.

Perhaps in the impression of the common people, these people do not have a clear distinction between right and wrong, and Hai Rui has a high reputation. But it is undeniable that these people are doing things that these upright officials cannot do for the sake of the great cause of the imperial court.

Therefore, Bao Zheng was in the wise Renzong Dynasty, and he had never been a real prime minister in his life, and the reason was not that Song Renzong did not know talents, but that Bao Zheng's character and ability were incompetent.

A close relationship with the chamberlain is something that the imperial court does not tolerate, and if Ye Yu's act of secretly bribing the chamberlain is spread, it will definitely be despised by everyone in Shilin.

But Ye Yu didn't care about this, because he knew what he was doing, and he didn't think it was anything shameful.

Those who are officials in the court want to be deaf and clear-sighted, and to have a good relationship with Gonggong Liu, who is an inner servant, is equivalent to having an extra ear in the palace, so that they can figure out the holy will in time, so as not to do some inappropriate things.

After sending Liu Wuyue away, Beitangmo then hurriedly walked in.

"Childe, there is a situation in Xianyou Mountain!"

Ye Yu's eyebrows moved when he heard this: "What's the situation?" ”

"Copper, iron, and other metals are hoarded in large quantities in the mountains......

"What!? Prepare the horses! ”

When Ye Yu heard this, he immediately stood up in shock, this hoarding of copper and iron is not a trivial matter, so he hurriedly left the county government and went straight to Xianyou Mountain.

After listening to Wu Qingzhong's narration in the cell at that time, Ye Yu felt that there might be something really boring in this, so he sent Beitangmo to lead the guards to investigate.

I never thought that as Wu Qingzhong said, there were really unspeakable secrets in Xianyou Mountain.

Ye Yu quickly came to Xianyou Mountain, at this time the scene has been completely surrounded by officers and soldiers, Ye Yu came to this mountain and found two huge boilers, their shape is similar to the original Xiangjun smelting boiler.

"What did you find?" Ye Yu looked at the boiler that had already cooled down at the scene, as well as the traces of being treated and buried, and he knew that he was a step too late after all.

"When the subordinates came down, there were no people here, but the subordinates found this ......" Beitang Mo sighed very regretfully, and then took out an object from his arms and presented it in front of Ye Yu.

Ye Yu raised his eyes and looked at it, but he was stunned: "Copper money, iron money? ”

"Exactly, this is what my subordinates found in the search!"

Taking the two coins in Beitangmo's hand, Ye Yu gently checked them in his hand, and then fell into a deep thought.

It's money again! This reminded Ye Yu of the counterfeit currency incident in Shaoxing, could there be any connection between this?

"Beitang, is there any mineral in this Xianyou Mountain?" Ye Yu pondered for a moment, and then asked a question that had no reason.

"Returning to Gongzi, my subordinates have already investigated, and there are no minerals here!"

"It seems that this matter is a bit mysterious, can there be an investigation of the temple on this mountain?" Ye Yu played with the two coins in his hand and asked meaningfully.

"This ......"

Ye Yu turned his head and glanced at Beitang Mo, and solemnly admonished: "You can't just take care of one place, you can only be perfect by taking the overall situation into account, in the belly of this Xianyou Mountain, there is such a large iron-making boiler, how can the monks on this mountain not know?" ”

"The subordinates were in a hurry, and they ignored this matter, and the subordinates were willing to be punished!" After Ye Yu's instructions, Beitang Mo realized that he had made a fatal mistake.

"That's it, even if you thought of this layer at the beginning, it is estimated that this Xianyou Temple may have already existed in name only......"

When Ye Yu said this, he suddenly looked stunned, and then hurriedly said solemnly: "You go back to the county government quickly, temporarily take over the position of the official, and you must strictly take care of the Zhou uncle and nephew, and ......"

looked at the two coins in his hand, and then said: "Temporarily detain the shopkeeper of the money bank in the city!" ”

"Yes!"

Beitangmo went to the county government to deliver the message, while Ye Yu wandered in the Xianyou Mountain. After several searches, dozens of corpses were found in a mountain col.

And according to the time of death presented by the corpse, it should have been not long after death, which made Ye Yu feel a little dignified, because he found that these people's movements were really fast.

In the end, he wandered in the mountains for half a day, and finally returned to the county seat without finding anything.

When he returned to the county seat, a bad news made Ye Yu aware of the severity of the situation.

Zhou Kui and Zhou Kang in the county government prison died silently in prison, and even the pretending could not find out what the cause of death was.

Moreover, the shopkeeper of the Sihai Money Village in the city has no one alive or dead, and the strangeness of these things makes Ye Yu suddenly feel a little cold.

What Ye Yu didn't expect was that such a strange thing happened in a small Ningde County, and this weirdness actually made him feel like he couldn't guard against it.

In the Hexin Pavilion of the Wu Mansion, Ye Yu and Wu Qingzhong sat opposite each other, but Ye Yu, who was at the top, said very little today, just thoughtfully sipping the tea in the cup.

On the side, Wu Qingyin respectfully boiled fragrant tea in front of the coffee table, occasionally peeking at Ye Yu with mossy eyes from time to time, and then smiled lightly, silently lowered Zhen Shou and thought about his thoughts.

Wu Qingzhong saw that Ye Yu was silent, as if he had a mind to hide in his heart, so he respectfully bowed his hand and asked, "Master Ye seems to have a mind in his heart?" ”

"Uh, hehe, there are some things I don't understand, but I snubbed Brother Wu, I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Ye Yu, who came out of his contemplation, said awkwardly and apologetically.

Today, he came to this martial arts house alone, in addition to returning the examination vouchers for this autumn exam, and secondly, he also wanted to find a quiet place to think about something.

Wine is soft and strong; And tea, naturally, there is a difference between soft and strong.

Maybe because Wu Qingyin is a woman, the tea boiled is quite gentle and graceful of a Jiangnan woman, and there is a faint feeling of softness in the mouth, which is just right for calming down and thinking about something.

Wu Qingzhong was very moved: "Master Ye is so approachable, it is really admirable to students......"

"If you talk about Geng Nian, Brother Wu should be older than Ye, and Brother Wu now considers himself a student, wouldn't it be a torment for Ye?" What Ye Yu didn't like the most was that any scholar called himself a student in front of him.

But Wu Qingzhong responded seriously: "The so-called learning is not in order, the master is the first, Lord Ye is a scholar of the Guanwen Palace, and he is a model for my generation of scholars!" ”

"Brother Wu, you and I don't have to be so serious in private. Ye treats you like a friend, you don't want to alienate the distance because of such a false name......"

"Respect and humility are orderly, they cannot be abolished, they cannot be abolished!"

"You, you......"

Seeing Wu Qingzhong being so stubborn, Ye Yu suddenly felt speechless. At this moment, he thought of Meng Tong, a jinshi who was on the same list as him, and now he didn't know how he was doing in Chengdu.

Meng Tong's more serious temperament is compared with that of this Wu Qingzhong, if these two people meet together, I don't know if they will pinch each other?

"Tomorrow, Brother Wu will rush to the state capital to participate in the Autumn Festival, Ye has a special identity and cannot send it off, here I wish Brother Wu three yuan in one fell swoop with tea instead of wine!" Ye Yu picked up the teacup as he spoke, and congratulated Wu Qingzhong.

"Thanks to Mr. Ye's auspicious words, Wu does not expect to be in the middle of the three yuan, but he also wants to be famous!"

"Hey, this is wrong, how does Brother Wu know that he can't connect the three yuan?"

Wu Qingzhong shook his head and said seriously: "If you talk about Sanyuan and the first, since the Sui Dynasty opened the imperial examination, so far there are only eight people: Zhang Youxin, Cui Yuanhan, Sun He, Wang Zeng, Song Zhen, Yang Zhi, Wang Ruosuo, and Feng Jing!" ”

"But the only person who is really connected to the three yuan, and who is so young, is Master Ye. Although Wu is proud of his talents, he does not dare to boast of such Haikou. Hugh wants to say that Wu Mou, even the students of the world are beyond the reach of Lianzhong Sanyuan......"

In history, only Song Qi and Feng Jing of the Song Dynasty, and Qian Qi of the Qing Dynasty were the real Lianzhong Sanyuan. Even the three yuan refers to the state examination, the general examination, the palace examination three times in a row can be the first place, if there is an interval can only be called three yuan and the first.

To put it simply, Lianzhong Sanyuan is a one-shot type, and Sanyuan and the first are intermittent, which can be understood as college entrance examination repeaters in later generations.

Repeaters have won the first place in the province in the college entrance examination, which can be called the champion, but compared with fresh graduates, it is never orthodox in one go.

And Wu Qingzhong is also true, if it is according to the standard, Ye Yu can be said to be the first person in the imperial examination so far!

Ye Yu didn't say anything, but drank the tea with a smile, and chanted: "Three cups of turbid wine go through the world, one cup of tea is ancient and modern, Ye is waiting for good news!" ”

"I will live up to expectations!"

The two talked and laughed happily, which also made Ye Yu gradually forget the worries in his heart, and it was not until Ye Yu quietly left the martial arts family that the remnant sun was in the west.

Wu Qingzhong looked at his sister and looked at the direction where Ye Yu disappeared reluctantly, and then shook his head and comforted: "Don't think about it, go back......"

Listening to his brother's words, Wu Qingyin hesitated for a moment with a gloomy expression, and then lowered his head in frustration and was reluctant to close the wooden door.

A thick wooden door blocked a wisp of girlish affection......
