Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 652 Someone Visited
When Ye Xun married Hongxiu and Hua's sisters, Zhang Weixian recognized them as righteous daughters in order to give them status.

That is to say, Ye Xun should call Zhang Weixian to be the father-in-law, but now the sixth lady wants Lao Zhang's son to recognize Ye Xun as a foster father. Doesn't she know what happened before?It seems unlikely!

But fortunately, Comrade Zhang has returned to the West, and Ye Xun will not have any psychological burden to recognize this adopted son, and he has never recognized Zhang Weixian as the father-in-law.

After pretending to be difficult, Ye Xun reluctantly agreed.

The sixth lady immediately took her son back and went back without looking at Wu Chengxu from the beginning to the end. It was obvious that the Zhang family had hurt her so much that even Wu Chengxu, the half of the Zhang family, hated her.

Wu Chengxu had no choice but to bid farewell and leave. This was in Ye Xun's residence. He wanted to rob people, but he didn't have the guts!
Ye Xun didn't care about Wu Chengxu's going or staying, and accepting Zhang Xumin as his adoptive son made Ye Xun suddenly think of Xiao Rushi.

An adopted daughter and an adopted son, who are brothers and sisters in name, but have no blood relationship. Zhang Xumin is going to inherit the British dukedom. If they can become a family in the future, everyone will be happy.

Ye Xun's heart is considered big enough, he has a lot of business to deal with, but he still has the mind to worry about the young people.

Wu Chengxu was here just now, otherwise Ye Xun would have wanted to call Mr. Zhang to come to the house, but Jin Yiwei is also very good at seeing and hearing. It is better to let Jin Yiwei get the news about his meeting with Mr. Zhang, so that he can see what Wu Chengxu is. What the hell.

In fact, since Ye Xun returned to the mansion, the visitors in the mansion have not been cut off, but Ye Xun basically disappeared, most of them were received by the housekeeper, left the greeting card, and then sent away.

It's not that Ye Xun is so arrogant, it's really unnecessary, most of the people who come to him to post posts have no serious business, either running for an official position or asking for care and support.

Ye Xun's time is precious, and he has no time to talk to these people.

But not everyone is missing, such as Wu Chengxu just now, or the next one.

Seeing this person's greeting card, Ye Xun not only met him, but also greeted him personally.

This person is the newly appointed Governor of Shuntian and Liu Zongzhou.

Liu Zongzhou, named Qidong, nicknamed Niantai, was the last Confucian master in the Ming Dynasty and the founder of the theory of Shendu. In another time and space, the Qing army refused to surrender after breaking through the city, and finally died of a hunger strike. He was a generation with great backbone. Grandmaster.

And there is another reason why Ye Xun respects him, that is, he clearly has a close relationship with some big bosses in Donglin, but he also pointedly pointed out the disadvantages of Donglin Party in launching party struggles.

So this is a person who has real skills and has not followed suit, but I don't know how he is as an official.

You must know that the way of being an official and learning are two different things. Doing well in learning does not mean that you will be a good official.

And if Liu Zongzhou can really talk to Ye Xun, Ye Xun plans to hire him to be his son's teacher, that is, the emperor's teacher in the eyes of others.

As soon as he left the mansion, Ye Xun bowed to Liu Zongzhou who was standing at the bottom of the steps.

"Mr. Niantai is here, full of splendor and brilliance, I have lost my way, and I beg to forgive you!"

For Ye Xun's performance, not to mention Liu Zongzhou, the officials who lined up outside waiting to be summoned were also dumbfounded, because no one had ever seen Ye Xun be so polite to others.

Liu Zongzhou is not yet forty, with elegant appearance and personable manner, it is easy to be liked by others, but at his age, although he is in the time of doing business in later generations, he has already entered the ranks of the elderly in ancient times.

This is the third time that Liu Zongzhou has been employed, because his maverick not only offended Wei Zhongxian and his group of power eunuchs, even his Donglin friends were unwilling to speak for him.

After a few visits, Liu Zongzhou's heart sank. Today, he just wants to see who the legendary Eunuch Ye is. If it doesn't work, he will resign and go home to continue his studies.

Liu Zongzhou obviously didn't expect Ye Xun to be so polite, people are out of respect, no matter how noble a person is, he will be grateful to be treated with such courtesy by No.1 in the dynasty.

He hurriedly bowed back and said, "Eunuch Ye is very polite. I have heard about Eunuch Ye's name for a long time. It is better to meet him than to be famous!"

The outside world's evaluation of Ye Xun was mixed. Liu Zongzhou had a close relationship with the Donglin Party members before, and he heard Ye Xun as a person, and he would definitely not have anything good to say about him, so he said this.

"Haha! If some people know that Mr. Niantai gets along so well with the first traitor of the dynasty, they will definitely be very disappointed. It's cold outside, let's talk inside, please!"

As Ye Xun said, he turned his head and said to the housekeeper, "Let everyone else leave! I have disappeared today except for Mr. Niantai."

Before Ye Xun finished speaking, a person suddenly appeared from among the officials in line, and said loudly, "Why does my father-in-law treat one more than another? I have been waiting in line to see my father-in-law since early in the morning, but my father-in-law dismissed me with a single word. Could it be that my father-in-law is Is this how you treat your subordinates?"

Ye Xun couldn't help being taken aback, it seems that no one has dared to talk to him like this for a long time, right?Turning his head to look, he saw a young man in his thirties.

The young man was dressed in a blue official uniform, with an oriole embroidered on the patch on his chest, and he could tell he was a seventh-rank official just by looking at the court uniform.

After seeing his official uniform, Ye Xun became suspicious. An official of the same size also came to visit him. He was quite courageous, and with his official position, it is estimated that even after the Chinese New Year, the housekeeper would not let him see him.

As soon as the seventh-rank official opened his mouth, the originally noisy scene outside the mansion suddenly became strangely silent.

The officials looked at Xiaoguan with mixed eyes, sympathetic, ridiculed, and of course gloating.

Liu Zongzhou also turned around, looked at the little official, and then his eyes fell on Ye Xun.

This may seem like a trivial matter, but Ye Xun's personality can be best seen from Ye Xun's handling attitude.

Ye Xun smiled slightly, and said, "What's your name? What do you want me to do?"

"Cao and Qin Yong of the Household Department of the lower official came to visit the father-in-law today because the lower official felt that there was something wrong with the silver coins issued by the father-in-law."

This little official named Qin Yong spoke neither humble nor overbearing, his eyes were clear, and he looked like an upright official.

It's just that Qin Yong raised this question, but it was really beyond Ye Xun's expectation, because the silver coins have been issued in Daming for almost two years, and the feedback from all parties is very good, how come this guy has a problem?

Could it be that you want to use this incident as a gimmick to attract your own attention?If that's the case, you little corrupt official is going to be the end of the day.

Ye Xun said calmly, "What's the problem?"

"Don't blame my father-in-law. It's because the officials didn't make it clear. In general, the circulation of silver coins has greatly facilitated the court and the people. At least you don't have to carry a large amount of copper coins or silver notes when you go there."

"But I don't know if my father-in-law has thought about it. For some ordinary people in remote areas, the face value of silver coins is still too large. The court should continue to promote some coins with small face values ​​to completely replace copper coins."
