Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 207 Great drink (second update)

It's still that old house, or that simple study room, two cups of tea, this is how the chief minister of the dynasty treats guests.

There were not many people who could be invited into the inner study by Fang Congzhe, especially eunuchs, except of course Ye Xun.

Looking at the two cups of steaming tea, Ye Xun couldn't help shaking his head and laughing: "I said, Mr. Fang, how can you say that you are also the chief minister of the court, so you can't be so stingy?"

"Be content! How many people want to drink the old man's cup of tea and still can't drink it! Besides, with your wealth, what delicacies have you never seen? If you want to eat good food here, you are in the wrong place."

Ye Xun rubbed his nose, smiled wryly and said, "It seems that in the future, I will really have to weigh it up when I do things for Mr. Fang. There is no benefit at all, and I have to be ridiculed."

Fang Congzhe also smiled, picked up the teacup, and said, "Don't put garlic in front of the old man, this cup of tea will be regarded as the old man thanking you."

Ye Xun reluctantly picked up the tea and took a sip, then said seriously: "Mr. Ge, do you know if you should say something or not?"

Fang Congzhe seemed to know what Ye Xun wanted to say, he sighed slightly, and said, "I know what you want to say, this old man has a clear name all his life, but he never thought it would be destroyed by that naughty son, it's my fault!"

Fang Shihong had been mentioned to Xichang by Ye Xun from the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and then he was sent back to his hometown directly.

Li Zhi didn't know what the purpose was, he didn't seem to know about this matter, he let Ye Xun take him away, and even the entire Ministry of Punishment became deaf-mute, and no one came out to object.

If something goes wrong, it must be a demon. Ye Xun believes that Li Zhi will definitely have a backup, so in order to avoid nights and dreams, he sent Fang Shihong away directly.

And through this incident, Ye Xun also knew why Fang Congzhe was so poor. He was not a corrupt official in the first place, and with a prodigal son, it was no wonder that Fang Congzhe was rich.

This is Fang Congzhe's family business, Ye Xun is not good at talking, he has done everything he can, and the rest is up to the fortune of that young master Fang.

Not wanting to continue on this issue, Ye Xun changed the subject and said, "Does Master Fang know who wants to attack you?"

Fang Congzhe collected his thoughts, and said with a sneer: "These people are determined to eliminate dissidents, but put aside the important affairs of the court. The old man refuses to be rebellious, so he regards the old man as a thorn in his side and wants to get rid of it quickly. In fact, if they can really get rid of the old man From this position, the old man should thank them."

Ye Xun knew that Fang Congzhe was the only one in the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty, and he asked Wanli to send more people. Wanli seemed to have Alzheimer's, and the other party ignored Congzhe's memorial at all, and wanted to resign?Then it's even more inaccurate, such an obedient and temperless old comrade, go there to look for it!
So Fang Congzhe is now as if being roasted on a fire, he is not a human being inside and out.

Ye Xun couldn't intervene in this matter, but he still said, "What does Mr. Ge need me for?"

Fang Congzhe smiled desolately, shook his head and said, "Keeping Liaodong is the greatest help to me."

Facing Fang Congzhe's wise eyes, Ye Xun suddenly felt a little guilty, turned his head with a dry smile, and said, "Eunuch Cui is here in Liaodong, and Mr. Yuan is also well dispatched. It's the same with me or without me."

"Hehe! Boy, why do you have to pretend to be so hard in front of the old man? If the old man's guess is correct, as long as you, Eunuch Ye, give a warrant, those arrogant soldiers in Liaodong will obey immediately!"

Ye Xun was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Master Ge, this joke can't be joked, if His Majesty finds out, you can't kill me!"

Fang Congzhe snorted coldly and said, "Are you afraid too? Boy, be more cautious in doing things. Some things are not unknown to others, but just useless."

They are all people who understand, and there is no need to say too much about some things, Ye Xun stood up, bowed deeply to Fang Congzhe and said: "Ge Lao's golden and jade words, Ye Xun will definitely keep them in mind."

As Fang Congzhe said, it can be said that Ye Xun single-handedly managed Liaodong where it is today. How could he easily give it up to others?He chose to leave in a low-key manner in order to confuse everyone, but in fact, the generals he brought out, including uncle and nephew Cao Wenzhao, would come to obey orders at any time as long as he gave an order.

And all actions related to Nurhachi also did not escape Ye Xun's eyes. When Nurhachi sent Huang Taiji to attack the Chahar tribe, Horqin tribe, Neikalkha and other tribes had already received Ye Xun's instructions to stay away. Let the Chahar Department alone bear the sharpness of the Jurchen cavalry.

According to Ye Xun's thinking, Chahar should be able to withstand the Jurchen army for a while, but he didn't expect that Lin Danhan would be beaten so easily that he would be beaten up after a few encounters.

All of the above things were done in secret. Once he was stabbed in the court, Ye Xun would not be able to explain it clearly. If that was the case, unless Ye Xun rebelled, Wanli would definitely beat him back to his original form , or even kill it directly to avoid future troubles.

Because Ye Xun's behavior has touched the taboo of any emperor.

Fang Congzhe's words today can be said to be a blow to Ye Xun, completely knocking away Ye Xun's fluke thoughts and making him wake up completely.

Fang Congzhe actually admired Ye Xun very much, otherwise he would have concealed everything for him, but if Ye Xun really had the intention of rebelling, it would be a different matter. It can be said that Ye Xun's eunuch coat protected him.

"I have already asked His Majesty to transfer Cao Wenzhao to Datong and serve as the commander-in-chief of Datong. Don't even think about the commander. His qualifications and military exploits are not enough. Liu Qu will succeed him, Ma Lin will be transferred to Fushun, and Qi Bingzhong will be promoted to the commander-in-chief of Yongping." Soldiers, that's it!"

After hearing Fang Congzhe's arrangement, Ye Xun couldn't help but remain silent. He knew very well that Fang Congzhe's arrangement was entirely out of a kind of protection for him, so that others could not use this matter to impeach Ye Xun.

However, the disadvantages of this arrangement are also obvious. Currently Nurhachi is focusing on the various ministries on the grassland, seemingly obedient to the Ming Dynasty, but Ye Xun knows that this kind of obedience is only temporary. Once the time is right, Nurhachi's Jurchen army will definitely He bared his fangs again and rushed towards the Ming army.

At that time, Ye Xun's previous arrangements had been completely disrupted, so how could he resist the surging Jurchen army?
Yuan Yingtai?Don't be funny, Shenyang was lost in his hands in history, not to mention Cui Wensheng, then the whole thing is a piece of rubbish, can you still count on him to fight?

A sense of powerlessness surged into Ye Xun's heart again. Is it wrong to defend the country?Why are there so many people holding back?
Ye Xun suddenly wanted to kill people, to kill all these bureaucrats who were only thinking about Usha on their heads.

"Elder Ge, have you ever thought about what to do if the Jurchen army invades again?"

It’s not that Fang Congzhe has never thought about Ye Xun’s question, but his thinking is similar to Wanli’s. Even if Liaodong is not said to be impenetrable now, it can definitely block the attack of the Jurchen army. Just nothing to be afraid of.

Just as Ye Xun thought, no one in the Ming court cared about the life and death of the Liaodong soldiers and civilians. They cared more about their face and whether anyone could influence their official positions.

Obviously seeing the unwillingness in Ye Xun's heart, Fang Congzhe patted Ye Xun's shoulder lightly, and said, "Young man, only patience can make you gold!".
