The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 111 Master Ye is not hesitating to teach Zhu Yuanzhang, just because the emperor is too incompetent!
"Actually!"

"Your Majesty the emperor has worked very hard, in every way."

"He is a tenant farmer whose parents starve to death, he is a beggar who begs for food with a broken bowl for his life, and he is a monk who works as a flower monk in order to make a living. If he can make Da Yuan into Bei Yuan, his name will last forever!"

Hearing this, both Empress Ma and Zhu Yuanzhang, who were sitting in the chairs, had a feeling that the tea just entered their mouths was not fragrant.

To say that he is a compliment is really a compliment, to say that he is a curse is also a curse!
Empress Ma reminded: "Lord Ye, you are also a servant of His Majesty the Emperor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a stern face: "We don't want you to say that he is good, we want you to say why he pays more and punishes him harshly, but not only can't do it, it's counterproductive!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was also anxious and angry, eager to know the answer, and angry that it would be better not to boast!
Ye Qing just looked at the man in front of him who was about to get angry, the part-time imperial envoy Mr. Guo said seriously and responsibly: "Okay, then I will start talking about why your emperor is so thankless."

Speaking of this, he looked at Empress Ma from the corner of his eye and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor is also my own official, you still need at least some respect."

Zhu Yuanzhang's hand hidden in his big sleeve was already clenched tightly.

Even Empress Ma felt a sense of helplessness in her heart. This Master Ye is indeed a genius, and it is true that he spoke too directly.

So much so that she is now thinking about a question, if Ye Qing were to replace Wei Zheng in the Tang Dynasty, would Tang Taizong Li Shimin, who was much more tempered than her Zhongba, kill him with one blow!

Of course, from Empress Ma's point of view, this is a fundamentally unsolvable problem, which is just a sudden idea.

Just because after seeing Ye Qing himself, she was really worried about a problem.

If Ye Qing's eloquence does not change, and he really becomes the "human mirror Wei Zheng" of the Ming Dynasty, will he be able to outlive her, Ma Xiuying?
Before meeting Ye Qing, she had always firmly believed that her family's heavy eight would definitely become an eternal sage who was more tolerant than Tang Taizong!
It can be seen that after seeing Ye Qing himself, she is really not sure!

Just when Empress Ma was thinking this way, Ye Qing continued: "Although His Majesty the Emperor has made immortal feats in expelling foreign humiliation, he is extremely incompetent in dealing with corruption!"

Especially when he said the words 'extremely incompetent', he not only increased his volume, but also dragged his tone obviously, as if he was afraid that they would not hear him.

Hearing these words, Empress Ma also immediately looked at her family Shigehachi.

Sure enough, as she expected, her family Zhongba just smiled flatly, and made a gesture of "please tell" and said: "I also ask Mr. Ye to enlighten me."

Seeing this scene, Empress Ma's heart immediately turned cold. All she can do now is to wait for the final result!
In the eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma,

Ye Qing stood with his hands behind his back in the center of the wide reception hall, and didn't look at them, but just looked at the world outside the door, and said in a pointing tone: "You said that His Majesty the Emperor gave a lot, I admit it, but it's just a lot for a few people."

"For example, his brother Xu Da from childhood, his nephew Li Wenzhong, and his favorite adopted son Mu Ying!"

"But it's too little for other heroes!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he just thought it was a bunch of nonsense!

Just like that, Zhu Yuanzhang stood up immediately, walked up to Ye Qing, and looked at him coldly.

In the eyes of Empress Ma, it is directly a living picture of a dragon and a tiger fighting for hegemony, or it can be said to be a living 'needle point against the wheat awn'!
But Zhu Yuanzhang didn't jump out of anger, he just retorted loudly: "It's a bunch of nonsense!"

"You also said it yourself. Salaries are given according to the rank of the position. Which one of them is not outstanding in military exploits, and which one is not a matter of course?"

Ye Qing, who has lived for hundreds of years, naturally wouldn't care about a brat.

Besides, he promised to accompany them to chat until the last drop of water dripped from the copper pot hourglass, and he would definitely do what he said.

It was only half an hour, and he was not confident enough to leave this old master Guo.

Ye Qing just looked directly at Zhu Yuanzhang, and said calmly, "What about Tang He?"

"When Your Majesty was in the army, Tang Shuai was already a general of thousands of households under Guo Zixing's command. Even if Tang Shuai's military exploits are not as good as Xu Da's, he is still comparable to His Majesty's adopted son Mu Ying!"

"How did His Majesty treat Tang Shuai?"

"Aren't you the imperial merchant in charge of royal procurement?"

"You must know how His Majesty treated Tang Shuai, right?"

In Empress Ma's eyes, under Ye Qing's barrage of three consecutive questions, her Shigehachi's aura immediately weakened, and even seemed to frown.

As early as Ye Qing brought Tang He out to speak, Empress Ma knew that Zhu Yuanzhang was about to lose.

Yes,

Her family's Zhongba was really unfair to this big brother Tang!
She couldn't persuade him when he was making great contributions to the hero. She wrote Tang He into the list of dukes the night before, and Zhu Yuanzhang changed his name to the list of marquises the next morning.

Fortunately, this big brother Tang was open-minded and didn't care too much!

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang treats Tang He like this is also very simple, that is, Tang He is too "moderate".

It can also be said that he knows Zhu Yuanzhang too well, and he is too "wise and safe"!

At this moment, Ye Qing saw that Master Guo was speechless, so he continued to say: "Actually, since the word fair was born, the word unfair followed it."

"Even this official can only be relatively fair, not absolutely fair, not to mention His Majesty the emperor who is not very knowledgeable and short-sighted."

Ye Qing didn't give him a chance to speak at all, and continued: "It's also because of his obvious unfairness, the unfairness with personal emotions, and the unfairness with close and distant relationships, which laid the root of the disaster for the current result."

"Although Tang Shuai doesn't care about it, in the eyes of others, it is His Majesty the emperor who has a small stomach and chicken intestines, crossing the river and tearing down the bridge!"

"Mu Ying's achievements are far inferior to Tang He's. Although she has not been granted a title publicly, the favor she has received in private is no lower than that of ordinary marquises!"

"In other people's eyes, as long as you get close enough to His Majesty, it doesn't necessarily mean meritorious deeds!"

"Think about the Great Qin Shihuang. He can use his talents only. If foreigners have talents, they can be prime ministers. If the clan has no talents, then they can only eat a meal of peace and happiness, and they can't even get a position in the court."

"Of course, the first emperor should not be mentioned. Your Majesty is still far behind the first emperor!"

Speaking of this, Ye Qing couldn't help shaking his head: "Your Majesty has already given others a small belly, crossing rivers and tearing down bridges, regardless of relatives and merits, what else can you expect?"

"Don't say that you don't give much to others, even if you give a lot, you still have to be greedy!"

"Even if it's because of an unbalanced heart, you must be greedy!"

"Let's talk about the strict law, they are greedy because of His Majesty's fault, and after being severely punished by His Majesty, they will only be more chilling!"

"So many chilling people get together, and it will gradually evolve into a situation of 'holding together to resist Zhu'!"

"you say."

Ye Qing was about to turn around to ask Master Guo, but found that Master Guo, who had to argue with him before, had already sat back beside his wife, and he still had the meaning of 'withered eggplant'.

Zhu Yuanzhang just sighed and said, "It is indeed."

The sentence 'This is indeed our fault' came to his lips, he swallowed it in a daze, and then immediately changed his words: "This is indeed your Majesty's fault."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Empress Ma and said meaningfully: "Madam, after we go back, find a chance to go into the palace and chat with the empress, and let the empress talk to your majesty."

Empress Ma just smiled and nodded, "Yes, master!"

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang turned around decisively and looked at Ye Qing, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Master Ye is indeed a talented person, but this way of speaking needs to be changed."

"If one day you enter the court and become an official, this mouth will kill you!"

Ye Qing really didn't want to say thank you for the reminder from Master Guo, the part-time imperial envoy, he just looked at the copper pot drip from the corner of his eye.

He also frowned slightly when he found that the copper kettle was still dripping water. He obviously asked someone to pour half of the water. Why hasn't the water dripped out for half an hour?

At the same time, he also felt that Master Guo could really bear it!
Just when Ye Qing started to think about how to get rid of them, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately asked: "We want to ask Mr. Ye another question."

"While we were queuing up, I heard that Master Ye implemented three different charging rules for foreign business travelers, Daming Semu merchants and Mengyuan merchants, and Daming Han merchants."

"Foreign business travelers aside, there is nothing wrong with being a little harsh!"

"But Semu and Meng Yuan merchants from Daming, as well as Han merchants from Daming, are all citizens of Daming, and are subjects of His Majesty the Emperor!"

"Since His Majesty has promulgated the decree, it should be treated equally!"

"How did Lord Ye do it?"

"The Han merchants from the Ming Dynasty can pay all the banknotes, but the Semu and Mengyuan merchants from the Ming Dynasty can only pay half of the banknotes and half of the cash!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang sat up straight, because he is confident that he is better than Ye Qing in this regard.

In terms of mind, the emperor is far better than a mere seventh-rank county magistrate!

Thinking of this, the color of confidence in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes can be said to come up all at once.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Qing again, with a somewhat forceful tone: "Everyone says that Master Ye's principle is to 'treat all people equally', but how can Master Ye treat the people of Ming Dynasty so differently, how can it be called 'equal treatment'?"

"Master Ye, please enlighten me!"

As soon as the voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately sat down as an 'uncle', picked up his teacup and began to drink tea.

Ye Qing looked at Master Guo who was sipping tea, and there was only one thing in his mind, that is 'drowsiness is here, someone will give you a pillow'.

He didn't even have to think about how to make them angry, they sent him the method directly.

Ye Qing immediately taught loudly: "Okay, then I will not hesitate to teach you."

"The reason why I did this is because His Majesty is too incompetent in this regard!".
