Chapter 214
Zhu Changxun was 33 years old, and he was in the prime of his life. If it wasn't for the excessive doting of his father and mother, he should have stayed comfortably in the fief and continued his super-dandy life of bullying men and women.

But the old lady was not reconciled, and she just wanted him to take the position that didn't belong to him. The father Wanli was also very partial, and forced him to be on the cusp of the storm.

It can be said that Zhu Changxun's ambition was indulged in this way.

In fact, at the beginning, Zhu Changxun didn't look down on Ye Xun at all. If his father hadn't written to him again and again asking him to win over Ye Xun, he wouldn't have talked to Ye Xun.

In Zhu Changxun's mind, instead of wasting his energy on an eunuch, it would be better for his father to train several important ministers in the court. Only when the ministers support him, his position will be as stable as Mount Tai.

However, Zhu Changxun also knew that these people in the inner palace were the closest to the emperor, and with their support, he could ascend to the throne as quickly as possible.

Ye Xun's guess was correct. Zhu Changxun was brought back from Luoyang by Sun Lun, and after talking with Ye Xun, Sun Lun would also arrange for Zhu Changxun to enter the palace secretly. As soon as Wanli's condition worsened, he would secretly put the prince Zhu Changluo under house arrest immediately. .

In the secret room of Zheng Guotai's house, Ye Xun finally met Zhu Changxun and Zheng Guotai.

Zhu Changxun looks a lot like Wanli, with a rosy complexion, a rich face, and a much stronger figure than Zhu Changluo, not like Zhu Changluo's sick child. No wonder Wanli will pay attention to this son. He is indeed better than the eldest son. too much.

"Slave see His Royal Highness Fu!"

Wanli hasn't shown signs of dying yet, so the play has to go on.

Before Ye Xun could kneel down, Zhu Changxun immediately supported Ye Xun. Ye Xun is not the only one who knows how to act.

"The lonely king has heard of Eunuch Ye's name for a long time. When I saw him today, he is indeed a young hero. This is a little wish from this king. I hope that Eunuch Ye will not dislike you."

Zhu Changxun was still generous as always, and directly handed the brocade box containing a box of silver tickets to Ye Xun.

Ye Xun didn't have the habit of not accepting gifts yet, so he put the brocade box into his arms with a smile, and said, "My family is a little embarrassed to always make His Highness spend money, oh! This must be Lord Zheng Hou, who has been admiring me for a long time. !"

As Ye Xun said, he bowed his hands to Zheng Guotai who was on the side.

Although he kept telling himself that Zhu Changxun might cut off the promise of the dead eunuch once he ascended the throne, when he saw Ye Xun's face that didn't deserve to be beaten, Zheng Guotai still didn't get angry at one place, killing his son for revenge. !How can you let go easily?
When Zhu Changxun saw Zheng Guotai's expression, he knew it was going to be bad, so he coughed dryly and said, "Uncle, Eunuch Ye is talking to you!"

"Ah! Eunuch Ye, I just remembered something else, so I'm a little distracted. Please forgive me, Eunuch Ye."

Zheng Guotai is a cunning and cunning person after all, he soon realized that he had lost his composure, and hurriedly greeted Ye Xun with his fists together.

Of course Ye Xun knew what was going on, so he pretended to be apologetic and said: "I have always been very sorry about the matter of the young master, please rest assured, I will definitely order my subordinates to arrest the murderer with all my strength, so as to comfort the young master." the spirit in heaven"

Hearing Ye Xun's words, Zheng Guotai's nose was almost out of breath, this kid didn't open the pot and lift the pot, did he do it on purpose?
Zhu Changxun also frowned secretly, obviously dissatisfied with Ye Xun's words, but his city is also very deep, and said with a smile: "With Ye Gonggong's words, what else do you have to worry about? By the way, Ye Xun Father-in-law, how is your father's health?"

Ye Xun rolled his eyes at Zheng Guotai, whose face was already flushed, and secretly laughed in his heart, I did it on purpose, what can you do to me?Bite me!
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is fine."

Zhu Changxun nodded, and said, "I want to go to the palace to visit my father. I wonder if Eunuch Ye can help?"

Ye Xun sneered in his heart, just pretend!Let me see how long you can pretend?
Pretending to ponder for a while, he said: "At present, the guards of the palace have been replaced by soldiers from the Imperial Horse Supervisor, so if His Highness wants to enter the palace, he must first obtain the consent of Eunuch Sun. Don't worry, Your Highness, this servant will go to him and guarantee Let Your Highness see His Majesty as soon as possible."

Zhu Changxun was very satisfied with Ye Xun's answer, nodded and said: "But the crown prince has been outside the palace of the father. It would be bad if he saw me? Do you have any way to make the crown prince disappear for a while?" "

Zhu Changxun deliberately made the pronunciation of the word "disappearance" very long, so that anyone who is not a fool can understand the meaning of his words.

Ye Xun understood a little bit. I am afraid that this is the real purpose of Zhu Changxun looking for him. If he really kills the prince, after Zhu Changxun succeeds to the throne, he will definitely liquidate himself under the banner of revenge for the prince.

Good trick, sinister enough, I like it.

You can't answer this kind of thing too quickly, otherwise Zhu Changxun won't believe it.

Frowning and thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Slave, let's try! I wonder when His Highness plans to enter the palace?"

"After you succeed, the lonely king will immediately enter the palace."

Zhu Changxun's answer was very straightforward, but he regretted it after he finished speaking, because in this way, wouldn't it be exposed that he had something else?
Fortunately, Ye Xun didn't seem to be able to react. Ye Xun nodded and said, "It's not too late. This slave will enter the palace to see what happens."

When Ye Xun finally agreed, Zhu Changxun showed a meaningful smile, patted Ye Xun on the shoulder, and said, "If you do this well, the lonely king will not treat you poorly."

At this point in the conversation, there was no need to continue, Zheng Guotai immediately ordered Zheng Yangxing to send Ye Xun out of the mansion.

It is a sedan chair when you come, and of course it is no exception when you go out.

Looking at the back of Ye Xun going away, Zheng Guotai said bitterly: "It's cheap for this eunuch"

Zhu Changxun frowned and said, "If you can't bear it, you will make big plans. How can uncle be so ignorant? You can rest assured that if the lonely king succeeds to the throne, he will definitely give uncle an explanation."

Being scolded by his nephew, Zheng Guotai didn't dare to be displeased at all, he couldn't stop admitting his mistakes, his begging appearance was no different from that of an old dog.

Of course Ye Xun would not let the sedan chair carry him back to the palace. After getting off the sedan chair in a secluded place, he walked towards the palace on foot.

Before he had gone far, Ye Xun felt someone following him and frowned. If it was the past, he would definitely find out the person following him, but he knew that the person following him now must be Zhu Changxun or Zheng Guotai sent, so I can only let them follow.

What Ye Xun didn't expect was that he didn't mind being followed, but Xichang's subordinates couldn't help but care. Ye Xun hadn't gone far, and the two spooky tails who followed behind were arrested by Xichang's spies up.

After feeling that the tail behind him was gone, Ye Xun quickly realized what was going on.

He found a secluded place, recruited the men who followed behind, and ordered him to send a message to Hu Jiucheng to closely monitor the Zheng residence, and arrest any suspicious persons immediately.

Ye Xun would not let Zhu Changxun enter the palace. In that case, he would be too passive, and as long as Wanli really died, he would also get rid of the Zheng family, so that the Zheng family would not always think about plotting against him.

At this time, no one thought that the seemingly calm Daming capital was actually undercurrents and turbulent waves.
