Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 411 Letter to the King Youjian
No one is perfect, and no one is omnipotent.

Because he didn't understand the imperial examination system and didn't pay much attention to it, Ye Xun still doesn't know that the exam questions were written by Yang Sichang.

Of course, if the emperor is ok, and he is erudite and talented, the emperor should come up with the questions for a big exam like this, but don't say there is something wrong with the emperor.Therefore, on behalf of the cabinet, Yang Sichang was very willing to make decisions for the emperor. In their hearts, it might be that they did not have the idea of ​​going on like this forever.

After handing back the evidence he had seen to Ye Xun, Yang Sichang's expression returned to calm, and he said in a deep voice, "How does the father-in-law plan to deal with these people?"

You can think of it with your butt, Ye Xun plans to take this opportunity to clean up some people again.

"The imperial examination is to obtain talent for the country. Now some people openly leak the examination questions. This is ruining the good atmosphere of the imperial examination in Ming Dynasty and a blatant provocation to the law, so I think it should be severely punished."

Ye Xun spoke righteously, as if he was some kind of good citizen.

Yang Sichang was obviously a little absent-minded today, nodded and said: "Then tomorrow! After the scientific examination starts, the examination questions will be unsealed. Only then can the evidence be considered conclusive, but it is better not to involve too much."

All in all, Yang Sichang was still very satisfied with Ye Xun's attitude. If he had asked for his opinion beforehand, it was tantamount to asking the cabinet first. This was the normal procedure.

"Is Master Yang uncomfortable there?"

Ye Xun finally saw that something was wrong, looked at Yang Sichang suspiciously and asked.

Yang Sichang shook his head, and said in a sad voice: "I am angry, you can do whatever you want, if there is anything, I will take care of it for you."

These words are obviously a bit contradictory. Just now I told Ye Xun not to involve too much, but in a blink of an eye, Ye Xun made it up.

Ye Xun didn't think too much about it, after bidding farewell to Yang Sichang, he sent someone to inform Tian Ergeng that he was going to collect the net.

Yang Sichang returned to the mansion, but his heart could not be calm for a long time, because during this time, only one person had entered his study, and that was Xin Wang Zhu Youjian.

Unlike his elder brother, Zhu Youjian was smart and eager to learn. Although he seemed to be against Ye Xun, he respected Yang Sichang very much, and even worshiped Yang Sichang as his teacher.

Literati all have the stink of being careless, and he is still a prince, but Yang Sichang didn't think much about it. After all, the emperor is still alive, and the empress is also pregnant. The fate of master and apprentice will come to an end.

A few days ago, Zhu Youjian came to him to ask for advice, and he rested in Yang Sichang's study at noon. When Yang Sichang came back from his work, Zhu Youjian had already left.

Although Zhu Youjian is a prince, he is still a ten-year-old child after all, so Yang Sichang didn't take any precautions against him at all.

But he never expected that the exam questions would be leaked. Yang Sichang was very unwilling to believe that Zhu Youjian was responsible for this matter, but at present this kid is the only one who is most suspicious.

Yang Sichang was very embarrassed, but for the sake of the friendship between the master and the apprentice, and also for the face of the royal family, he finally decided not to tell Ye Xun about this matter.

After pondering for a long time, Yang Sichang ordered someone to invite Zhu Youjian. If he didn't ask about this matter clearly, he might not even be able to sleep soundly.

In fact, since Zhu Youjian left the palace, he has been under the strict surveillance of Mu Zheng.

The people who believed in the palace were sent from the palace, and the chief eunuch beside Zhu Youjian was Mu Zheng's confidant, so even Ye Xun never thought that Zhu Youjian would have problems.

It can be said that Ye Xun still overlooked an important issue, that is, eunuchs' desire for power and money.

Zhu Youjian is not very old, but he is worthy of being the son and grandson of the Zhu family. In a short period of time, he used the means of empty hands and white wolves to make the chief eunuch sent to him by Mu Zheng succumb. When the information about Zhu Youjian was handed over to Ye Xun, the small things were true, but none of the important things.

It has to be said that the two brothers of the old Zhu family are quite evil, and their scheming is not ordinary.

According to Ye Xun's vision, after a year or two of calm, Zhu Youjian would die suddenly, but this kid obviously thought of this and started to fight back.

Zhu Youjian's idea was to make the scholars riot, and then by asking the emperor to give them a fair chance, he would reveal the secret that his brother was controlled by Ye Xun, so as to drive Ye Xun out of the capital.

Zhu Youjian firmly believed that the vast majority of courtiers were still loyal to the Zhu family. As long as Ye Xun was driven away, he could return the power to the emperor's brother. As for his own succession of the emperor's brother, it was not in his plan yet.

After being found in the mansion by Yang Sichang and entering the study, Zhu Youjian quickly admitted to stealing the exam questions, and then sent someone to spread them out.

Looking at Zhu Youjian's calm gaze, Yang Sichang suddenly had an illusion, is this kid really only ten years old?

Zhu Youjian is a little thin, but taller than his peers. Looking at him coldly, he looks more like a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old.

"Why do you do this? Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

It's this time, and getting angry can't solve the problem. In fact, since Yang Sichang decided to hide Zhu Youjian, he planned to lose his pawn and save his handsome man, and the charges were borne by two unlucky examiners.

After hearing Yang Sichang's question, Zhu Youjian said calmly: "Dare to ask my teacher, does this world belong to my Zhu family, or to eunuchs? Why are everyone acting like a thief? Is there really no loyalty in this court?" Are you a scholar? The student knows that his teacher is not such a person, so he dared to say this to his teacher. Of course, the teacher can also hand over the student to the eunuch. The eunuch holds military power. The teacher is forced by the situation, and the student will never There will be half a complaint"

If someone else said these words, Yang Sichang would definitely refute him with facts, because what Ye Xun did and what he did was there, but it was different when the Zhu family said it.

So far, many things Ye Xun has done are weakening the imperial power, so it is not surprising that the Zhu family hates him at all.

Without waiting for Yang Sichang to speak, Zhu Youjian continued: "What happened to my brother? How long has it been since my mentor saw him?"

Zhu Youjian's voice is still very clear, but every sentence is in the key point.

Yang Sichang fell silent again. Zhu Youjian's question was actually a question he had been deliberately avoiding. Sometimes he hoped that the emperor would recover and govern as soon as possible, but in his subconscious, there always seemed to be a different voice that made him continue to pretend to be deaf like this. Go dumb.

Seeing that Yang Sichang was silent for a long time, Zhu Youjian thought he was moved by his own words, and suddenly took a step forward, then knelt down in front of Yang Sichang, and said with a sad face: "Teacher, the student knows that you have loyalty in your heart, and now the monarchy is on the sidelines." , traitors are rampant, and only you can save Daming from danger!"

Yang Sichang looked at Zhu Youjian quietly, and after a while, he said slowly, "What do you want me to do?"

Zhu Youjian walked away happily, full of anticipation, but he was too excited when he left, so he didn't notice when Ye Xun appeared across the street
