Chapter 409
Compromise is actually an art. Ye Xun can be tough in the military, but if he is also tough in politics, he will be alone in the end and end in failure.

After Yang Sichang understood Ye Xun's true intentions, he naturally knew how to cooperate.

A small turmoil ended with Ye Xun admitting his mistake. Yang Sichang consciously saved his face and taught Ye Xun a lesson. Little did he know that Ye Xun was the real winner, because not only did he befriend Yang Sichang, but he also achieved his goal.

The big exam of Chunwei is about to start. To be honest, Ye Xun doesn't know much about this matter, and as far as he knows, the so-called big exam of Ming Dynasty mainly focuses on those nonsense stereotyped essays.

But our Grand Duke Ye doesn't even know what stereotyped essay is.

The examiners of this subject are Fei Lianzhong, a member of the Ministry of Officials, and Liu Wensheng, a student supervisor.

Ye Xun also made a special trip to find these two people, hoping to add current political discussion to the exam questions, but they were surprisingly unanimously rejected by the two old brothers.

According to their words, learning is learning, and it is not appropriate to get involved in messy things.

The two of them communicated with each other, and they almost stunned Ye Xun. What kind of bullshit theory is this?Is a person who is good at learning necessarily a good official?
Angry as hell, Ye Xun didn't intend to join in. With Yang Sichang and the others around, he seldom took the initiative to participate in things that he wasn't interested in.

There are quite a few contributors to the Ming Morning Post, and they also write a lot of valuable things. After these articles are screened, the background of these authors must be investigated for future use.

Ye Xun didn't know that after he had approached Fei Lianzhong and Liu Wensheng, someone had also approached them.

According to the practice of previous years, during the first three days of the big exam, the main examiners and invigilators will enter the exam room in advance, and will be isolated from the outside world during these three days to ensure that the exam questions will not be leaked.

The examiners went in, and Ye Xun also received a report from Hu Jiucheng himself on Ye Xun's desk.

"Someone sells exam questions in various restaurants and inns in the capital"

Seeing this report, Ye Xun frowned immediately. Although he did not participate in this matter, he knew that once this matter was exposed, it would definitely anger the scholars who came to take the exam. It can be said that the consequences unimaginable.

"Is the news accurate?"

"Elder-in-law, don't worry, you can't be wrong. Jin Yiwei has also got news, and now both sides are looking for the source of the exam questions."

Ye Xun remembered that in the TV movies of his previous life, this kind of scene often appeared. Some children of officials and eunuchs often made money through this incident, and once they were found out, it was the chief examiners who lost their heads.

"Let Jin Yiwei investigate! We don't want to make a move."

"My father-in-law said that at the beginning, my subordinates also had the same idea, but just received a report that Zhao Ying had visited Fei Lianzhong and Liu Wensheng last night, so my subordinates ventured to guess whether Zhao Ying was behind this incident. Is that group of people joining in?"

After hearing Hu Jiucheng's words, Ye Xun was also very surprised. Why did Zhao Ying go to these two examiners?Could it be that you still want to use this matter to trip me up?

He nodded and said: "Monitor them well, if there is any trouble, report back immediately."

Hu Jiucheng promised to turn around and leave, but he came back soon. Before Ye Xun could ask, he said, "Elder-in-law, the North Korean man named Li Shi is here again."

"Call him in!"

Ye Xun knew that Li Zhen's life was difficult, and Huang Taiji's ability could throw Li Zhen away a few blocks away. If Huang Taiji hadn't pushed him into a hurry, I'm afraid he wouldn't have sent someone to find him. It was just a condition he raised, and he agreed. Yet?

Not long after, Li Shi came in holding a boxy wooden box, handed the wooden box to Xichang Fanzi, and saluted Ye Xun respectfully.

Ye Xun waved his hand to signal Li Shi to avoid the gift, looked at the wooden box, and said, "Is this the head ordered by Jin Zi?"

"Back to Eunuch, yes, this person offended Eunuch, he deserves to die, he has been on the run before, and now he has just been brought to justice, please check with Eunuch"

Ye Xun only met with Jin Zidian twice, and now what he sent was only a human head, so he must be sure that it must be Jin Zidian's head?
He smiled lightly and said, "Isn't it Li Zhen who made a substitute?"

Li Shi was taken aback, thinking that such a secret matter, how did this dead eunuch know?Could it be that there are spies by your side?
He hurriedly argued: "There is absolutely no such thing, it was the foreign minister who witnessed Jin Zi pointing out the law with his own eyes."

Seeing Li Shi's expression, Ye Xun knew that his guess was right, and couldn't help sneering in his heart, Li Yu is really a dog who can't change his shit, how dare he lie to himself at this time?it is good!I want to see how long you can lie.

Without saying anything, he nodded and said, "I heard that Huang Taiji is building a shipyard, do you know where it is?"

Finally got rid of Jin Zidian's matter, Li Shi couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

After hearing Ye Xun's question, he hurriedly replied: "We've heard about this matter, and we're investigating it now, but the Jurchens have kept it a secret, and I'm afraid there won't be any news in a short time, but we"

Ye Xun interrupted Li Shi's words with a wave of his hand, and said: "The firearms and ammunition that are going to help you are all ready, but I am worried about whether they can be safely transported to you. In this way, you go back first and tell the location of the Huangtaiji Shipyard. Find it, and after my navy destroys it, I will deliver it to you."

Seeing what Li Shi wanted to say, Ye Xun continued: "If Huang Taiji's power on the sea is not eliminated, my army will not be able to easily land in North Korea. If the retreat is cut off, wouldn't it mean that my army will never return? Okay. That's it, that's it!"

After Ye Xun finished speaking, he waved his hand, and the fans of Xichang came over and drove Li Shi out like a fly, without giving him a chance to speak.

Seeing Li Shi being pushed out by his subordinates, Ye Xun couldn't help but "Bah!", playing tricks with me, to see who can kill who?

Picking up the report on the table and looking at it again, I thought that selling the test questions was for profit, but it seems that Zhao Yingjia is not short of money, right?So why is this guy looking for two examiners?
Just thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps, and when I looked up, I saw a fan striding in.

"To my father-in-law, a person outside the door who claims to be from Japan and is a good friend of my father-in-law asks to see you"

Ye Xun couldn't help being taken aback, since when did he have Japanese friends?Last time that guy named Ichiro Watanabe came, I didn't humiliate him lightly. Does this little Japan have a good habit of being humiliated?

After thinking about it, I still ordered someone to invite this so-called good friend in.

Not long ago, a middle-aged man with a clean face and a straight face, dressed in a gray cloth monk robe and a bamboo hat, walked in slowly.

Seeing this man's clothes, Ye Xun was even more puzzled, not to mention that he didn't have Japanese friends, even if he had, he wouldn't be a Japanese monk!

Turning his head and glaring at Fanzi who brought the Japanese monk in, he thought to himself, why didn't he say it was a monk when he reported it?
Fanzi shrank his neck in fright, and hurriedly stood aside.

At this time the monk finally spoke, bowed his head and said: "The poor monk Huizhen was entrusted by His Majesty the Emperor, and came to pay a visit to His Excellency Ye Gonggong."
