Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 536 No Explanation
"Joint trial by the three divisions? Hehe! What a big scene!"

Ye Xun said sarcastically that Yuan Yingtai, Zhang Quan and Wang Yin were sitting next to him.

After the court, the three of them came to Xichang hand in hand. Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan came to report to Ye Xun about the passing of the court meeting just now, while Wang Yin was forced by Yang Sichang and other courtiers to find Ye Xun's dignitary.

In fact, Ye Xun knew very well that his break with the courtiers would happen sooner or later, for nothing else, because it was impossible for him to turn his son into a puppet like Zhu Youxiao.

But now that the son is still young, it is not time to break with the courtiers.

Although Altan was responsible for the case, he was also a victim. Ye Xun wanted to protect him not only because of his military exploits in Liaodong, but also because of his insistence on justice.

Ye Xun knew very well that protecting Altan would definitely bring him a lot of trouble, but he couldn't be afraid of trouble and let his loyal subordinates cry for injustice and suffer death!So what has he become?

Throwing the two confessions sorted out last night to Wang Yin, he said lightly, "Here are the details of the case, let's take a good look!"

Altan's subordinates have already confessed that they were instructed to set Altan up, but Fan Wencheng is not mentally retarded enough to tell him who he is, so the vice president named Tomutuo only knows that the other party is a speculator. The flower sent, I don't know anything else.

At present, Tom Tuo is still under further torture in Xichang Prison. His confession and the results of Hu Jiucheng's investigation of Zhu Yuanwailang are enough to become the cause and effect of the whole case.

It's just that including Altan, they don't believe that Chaohua still has this ability, so Hu Jiucheng has sent additional torture experts to get more valuable information from Tuo Mutuo.

Wang Yin never expected that there would be so many secrets in it. After reading the two confessions, You dubiously said: "Elder-in-law, are these all true?"

"I am not interested in deceiving anyone. Altan made a mistake. I will punish him, but it is absolutely impossible to hand him over to you. This is my attitude. Go back and tell them!"

Yuan Keli wanted to threaten Ye Xun with resignation, but it was destined to end in tragedy. The Ming court has been running for so many years, and it turns out that the absence of anyone will not affect the overall situation.

Wang Yin nodded, with what Ye Xun offered, he also had the confidence to refuse this matter, so he stood up and left.

Seeing Wang Yin walking away, Yuan Yingtai couldn't help asking: "How does the father-in-law plan to deal with Altan?"

After what happened, Ye Xun had already told them that from their point of view, public or private, they would not agree to deal with Altan excessively.

"I have already asked him to work for He Guangxian in Qinghai-Tibet."

Ye Xun obviously didn't want to continue on this topic, so he continued: "This year, the Ministry of Household Affairs will increase investment in the army, don't be stingy with money, and try to complete the restructuring of the army within two years."

Building a new army, dismantling the old guards, relocating military households, and updating military uniforms and weapons all require a lot of money. Fortunately, the sea ban has begun to bear fruit, otherwise such a huge plan would not be able to go ahead.

Zhang Quan nodded and said: "Don't worry, father-in-law, there will be no delay, but the lower officials also have an idea, whether it is possible to set up a separate yamen for money management, so that the household department can free up a lot of people to do other things."

It is really a word that wakes up the dreamer. Since Ye Xun came to power, the workload of the household department has increased exponentially, such as the census of the population, land measurement, river management, bridge repair and road paving, etc., all of which are the responsibility of the household department. In terms of work, there was a shortage of officials in the imperial court, and some things could be put on hold, but now it is no longer possible. The workload of the household department alone is not enough to increase the number of officials, so some functions should be stripped from the household department.

As for the income and expenditure of money, it is also a big part, which is not only extremely important, but also involves a wide range of areas, so it is necessary to build a separate yamen.

"Master Zhang, that's a good proposal, eh! Let's add a Ministry of Finance! This matter doesn't need to go through the cabinet. Master Zhang will first second a few officials who are proficient in accounting, and I will decide the candidates for the minister."

After hearing Ye Xun's words, Zhang Quan hurriedly agreed, but Yuan Yingtai frowned.

"Father-in-law, the establishment of the Ministry of Finance is not a trivial matter. If it is not reviewed by the cabinet, it may be inappropriate!"

Ye Xun smiled lightly, and said: "I earned all the money back, how to distribute it is of course my business, you don't have to worry about this matter, do your own things well, the sky won't fall down"

After hearing Ye Xun's words, Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan still didn't understand that Ye Xun was making use of the topic.

It's just that from the perspective of a civil official, there seems to be nothing wrong with what they do, but Ye Xun stated that he will not participate in the government, but the military and financial power are always in his hands, and he is asking for trouble if he is offended.

In fact, the two of them sighed in their hearts. Eunuch Ye was afraid that he was born for trouble. The Altan murder case was not over yet, but now he would confront the cabinet and courtiers again.

Everything Ye Xun does has his own purpose, which cannot be explained clearly to others, and there is no need to explain it to others.

Just as Yuan Yingtai and Zhang Quan left, Hu Jiucheng came up to the hall. You could tell by his expression that he didn't ask any valuable clues.

"Eunuch, I just received the news that the scholars from the Imperial College and the Taixue are joining forces, and they seem to intend to ask the father-in-law for their crimes. Do you want to stop these scholars in advance?"

After hearing Hu Jiucheng's words, Ye Xun couldn't help but frown. The officials may not care, but the flower buds in these countries really have to take it seriously.

Ye Xun knew that these scholars were basically instigated by their mentors and so on. When their heads got hot, they always felt that they were accomplishing some righteous act, but they didn't know how ignorant they were.

It seems that it's time to find something for them to do, so that they don't have to worry about themselves.

"Find out who is taking the lead, don't make it difficult for them, let their family members come forward, and send someone to spread a message, saying that the imperial court has a new rule for this year's imperial examination, that is, all scholars must go to the countryside to teach for more than half a year, otherwise they will not Allowed to take the test"

Hu Jiucheng agreed, and was about to leave when Ye Xun called him back.

"Tumuto's matter is probably caused by the Jurchens behind the scenes. Stirring flowers is not that great, so try harder in this direction."

"Subordinates understand, let's do it"

Seeing that Ye Xun didn't give any more instructions, Hu Jiucheng saluted and turned to leave.

This is not how clever Ye Xun is, but purely a kind of intuition. Chaohua has completely disappeared since the defeat of Khanhot. With Chaohua's mind and energy, Ye Xun did not believe that he could formulate such a thorough plan, so After careful analysis, among these surrounding enemies, only Huang Taiji has this ability and brains.

Although nothing is absolute, but if you do more research, you will never be wrong.

In addition, the rumor that Ye Xun created for the scholars is quite sinister, because compared with condemning himself, the future of the scholars is obviously more important, and once the court's decision is made, it will definitely affect the future of the scholars this year. Big test.

Rumors are the most feared thing to spread, and as long as someone spreads them, people will believe them. When the rumor spreads all over the city, who would care about the murder of Ye Xun's subordinates?
