Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 43 Finding Someone
It was already very late at night, but Ye Xun didn't feel sleepy at all.

Wang Baihu and Han Ping had already left, but the news they brought made Ye Xun's heart restless for a long time.

The capital city is imperative. Not only is the emperor's order unbreakable, but he must also go for better development in Liaodong in the future.

But what is the capital like now?The Battle of Sarhu took place in the 47th year of Wanli, and the Wanli emperor died in 48th year, which means that the emperor only had a life span of about one year.

Ye Xun remembered very clearly that during the Wanli period, neither the Donglin Party nor the Eunuch Party had yet formed a climate. Although the officials of the imperial court had always been keen on dog-eat-dog, none of them had overwhelming strength. Not to mention Wanli's cleverness.

After living in seclusion behind the scenes for decades, but controlling the court all the time, what kind of mentality should I use to deal with such a person?
Ye Xun's advantage is his status as a eunuch. At the same time, when all the troops were defeated, he used a victory to save Wanli's face. It is obviously unrealistic for him to hand over Liaodong to him.

However, with these as capital, it should not be a problem to stay in Liaodong for the time being, so can we pin our hopes on Wanli's successor?

Wanli's son died after only [-] days as emperor, and then Zhu Youxiao, the famous carpenter emperor, followed by the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party headed by Wei Zhongxian also appeared on the stage one after another.

As an eunuch, Wei Zhongxian would definitely treat Ye Xun as his own, but this guy is still shit right now, and he hasn't even changed his name.

So when I come to Beijing this time, can I make a good relationship with this guy who is still called Li Jinzhong in advance?

Thinking of this, the corner of Ye Xun's mouth couldn't help showing a smile, and he patted his palms lightly.

Following Ye Xun's applause, a guard's voice quickly came from outside the door: "Elder-in-law, please order!"

"Ask Liang Zhen to come see me"

Han Ping is undoubtedly a smart person. He took the initiative to report Wang Dengku's suspiciousness to Ye Xun, that is, he picked himself out, and at the same time he showed his loyalty to Ye Xun.

Ye Xun doesn't have many available right now, and for Han Ping, the more intelligent and loyal subordinates, of course, the more the better.

After this incident, Ye Xun planned to promote Han Ping, so that Wen had Gao Ying and Han Ping, Wu had Cao Bianjiao, Liang Zhen, Zhang Qi and others, and his team was initially built.

Ye Xun didn't plan to move Wang Dengku for the time being, so as not to overwhelm others, but he didn't have so many scruples about his subordinates.

It is conceivable that that sneaky guy must want to find out about Ye Xun, and there are too many things about Ye Xun's actions in Tieling that cannot be seen in the light. If you go out, it will be troublesome when Ye Xun has not fully obtained Wanli's holy family, so this hidden danger must be eliminated.

"Crack, crack!"

A few crisp knocks on the door seemed particularly harsh in the silent night.

"Who?"

A low voice of inquiry came from the room, and then the oil lamp was lit, and a stout figure appeared on the window lattice.

"Brother Xiang, it's my younger brother who came to see you!"

Although the people outside did not announce his name, the people in the room immediately fell silent when they heard his voice. After a while, there was a "rustle" sound of dressing in the room, and then the door was opened from the inside, and a A bearded face was revealed.

With the help of the weak light, he looked carefully at the people outside for a moment, and then let the person enter the room. After the person entered, he looked around vigilantly, and then closed the door and plugged it in from the inside.

"Brother Xiang, long time no see, how has it been?"

If Ye Xun was present, he would definitely recognize this big brother Xiang. He is Xiang Baihu and Xiang Biao who guarded the city of Tieling.

And it was Wang Dengku's subordinate Hu Jiucheng who came to him in the middle of the night.

"How did you come?"

Xiang Biao's face was very ugly, and he tried to lower his voice and said, if this guy hadn't come late at night, he would definitely not let this guy in.

"Brother Xiang, why are you so nervous? Thinking back to when you and my brothers roamed the grasslands, how happy and happy they were. Brother, remember that brother is not such a timid person!"

Hu Jiucheng looked at Xiang Biao with a half-smile expression and said.

"I've already washed my hands, what are you talking about? Besides, didn't you agree to stop seeing each other in the future! What are you doing here?"

"Hey! Brother is here to ask for something, don't worry, as long as you do this little favor for brother, brother will never disturb you again"

"I can't help you. You'd better leave as soon as you get to know each other. If Eunuch Ye finds out, you won't be able to leave."

Seeing that Xiang Biao was still not on the road, Hu Jiucheng's face also sank, and he said coldly: "Xiang, because you and I used to be on the same road in the past, Hu was polite to you, so I don't know your kindness. How would this father-in-law feel when he knew that his subordinate was the famous horse bandit Xiang Huzi?"

After hearing Hu Jiucheng's words, Xiang Biao's eyes flashed murderous intent, he lowered his head and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Although Xiang Biao concealed it well, Hu Jiucheng is also an old man, and he immediately felt the killing intent on Xiang Biao, but he didn't seem to notice it.

Youyou said: "Brother Hu should know how little brother is. I won't do anything I'm not sure about. Since I dared to come to you late at night, I naturally thought of everything."

Xiang Biao's head reacted quickly, and before Hu Jiucheng finished speaking, he raised his head and put on a smiling face, saying: "Brother Hu is thinking too much, tell me! What are you looking for me for?"

Hearing what Xiang Biao said, Hu Jiucheng's expression softened, and he said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will never make things difficult for my elder brother. I just want my elder brother to help me find out about the robbery of General Li Ruzhen's house and how he died. After the matter is over, brother will leave immediately, and I promise not to implicate big brother."

After hearing Hu Jiucheng's words, Xiang Biao was startled, and immediately understood that this guy was after Ye Xun.

Ye Xun hasn't debuted for a long time. If you want to say that the people he offended, besides the Li family in the city, are the only Tartars, and this Hu is a master who has both milk and mother, and there is no distinction between good and bad in his head. After careful analysis, this guy was most likely sent by the Tartars.

Xiang Biao's experience in the Jianghu is also extremely rich, and the city is also very deep. These thoughts just flashed through his mind, but he didn't show it on his face.

Frowning, he said: "These things are all done by Zhang Qi and his group. I really don't know, but since Brother Hu is interested, I might as well go and find out for you, but"

Speaking of this, Xiang Biao paused on purpose, but looked at Hu Jiucheng with burning eyes.

Of course Hu Jiucheng understood Xiang Biao's meaning, reached out and took out a pocket from his pocket, and said, "This is 50 taels of gold, and there are still 50 taels of gold after the matter is completed."

Hu Jiucheng had already done a lot of work before he came here. He knew that Xiang Biao was not Ye Xun's confidant, and he couldn't even rely on him, so he dared to come to him. But what he didn't know was that Xiang Biao was young. Do both, but the concept of Han and barbarians is still very strong.

Ye Xun expelled the Tartars, curbed corruption, and treated the people kindly. These things have long been deeply rooted in the hearts of every soldier and civilian in Tieling. How can an outsider with ulterior motives be able to shake them?
He reached out to take the pocket and opened it to have a look, then put it in his arms and said with a smile: "Brother Hu, just wait for my good news!"

"I know that the elder brother will not disappoint the younger brother"

Hu Jiucheng also smiled happily
