The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 113 When the mirror hangs high as King Zhou of Shang, Mr. Ye invites Zhu Yuanzhang to dinner!

Zhu Yuanzhang's sudden words made Ye Qing, who was looking at the copper kettle hourglass, look directly at Zhu Yuanzhang.

At this moment, in Empress Ma's eyes, a vivid picture of a dragon and a tiger fighting for supremacy appeared again, and a living needle point against the wheat awn.

Seeing this scene, Empress Ma had basically let go of her heart, and raised her throat again.

A person who is an emperor doesn't read well, but he has a photographic memory for holding grudges!

Those who work as ministers are very talented, but their eloquence far surpasses that of Wei Zheng!
She really didn't have the confidence to make two people with such obvious advantages but extremely contradictory shortcomings, the two of them get along harmoniously for a long time.

Even if she managed to save Ye Qing's life, she felt that she was trading her own life, and after she died from long-term psychological torture, Ye Qing would be almost as good.

Obviously, this is not the result she wanted!

But judging from Ye Qing's two teachings, what he knows is what Da Ming urgently needs!
Thinking of this, she once again strengthened her determination to get Ye Qing into the court to be a 'mirror of Wei Zheng'!

In her opinion, no matter how poor her health is, it is not a problem for her to live another ten years. Ten years should be enough to turn two enemies into in-laws!
Just when Empress Ma made up her mind and looked at Ye Qing expectantly, Ye Qing asked directly: "Are you here to do business with me, or to help His Majesty ask questions?"

"This is His Majesty's privacy. If you want to know why, let him come to ask for advice in person!"

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing immediately sat back in his main seat, and picked up his teacup to drink tea to moisten his throat.

He has no time to teach Zhu Yuanzhang knowledge through them all the time!

As far as the knowledge he taught twice, if Zhu Yuanzhang can do it, it will be a blessing to the people of the world, not to mention, it can also put an end to the evil consequences of killing in the future!

As for the relationship between Zhu Yuanzhang's poor performance and too many sons, there is really no need to say that he is a person waiting to die.

There is no other reason,

After teaching this question, Zhu Yuanzhang will never make people again?
This is obviously impossible!

Furthermore, there are many ministers who object to him distributing the kings, but he still makes all his sons kings!

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang was also so angry that his chest felt a little stuffy!
He really wanted to kill the disrespectful person on the spot, but he really didn't want to!
Just based on Ye Qing's previous two teachings, it is enough to prove that Ye Qing scolded him, but he didn't scold randomly, he really scolded to the point, and there was even a way to solve Zhu Yuanzhang's fault.

Because of this, Ye Qing said that Zhu Yuanzhang did not do well enough because he had too many sons, so there must be a reason for this, and there is even a solution.

But at this critical moment, this guy just found such a bullshit reason and didn't say anything.

"privacy?"

"What shit privacy?"

"Do you still want the emperor to come to ask for advice in person?"

"It's really courageous!"

Deep in Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, Zhu Chongba in white began to cut each other with Zhu Yuanzhang in black again, but in the end Zhu Chongba in white won.

Because of this, in the eyes of Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang became a "cheap businessman" again.

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded with a smile and said, "Master Ye, it is better not to say such things. It is impossible for His Majesty to come to ask for advice in person, but Mr. Ye can speak face to face in the court!"

"With Lord Ye's talent, being a seventh-rank local official is really a waste of talent. Have you ever thought about becoming an official in the court?"

"The two of us can still have a few words in front of His Majesty, especially our wife, who has a very good relationship with Empress Ma."

Facing the olive branch extended by Master Guo, Ye Qing just wanted to say 'I thank you for the eighteenth generation of your ancestors'.

If he had known this earlier, he shouldn't even have taught me the two questions just now. This is simply a self-defeating rhythm!
But there is no way, who told him to promise that it would be fine to talk about anything before the water in the copper kettle dripped out!

That is to say, I found a reason involving 'privacy', so that I could refuse the third lecture, standing on the commanding heights of morality!

At least in Ye Qing's opinion, he is standing on the moral high ground!
Not only that, but he also committed another crime of disrespect to himself!

But I never expected that he was like this, and people would extend an olive branch and recommend him to be a high official in the capital?

Thinking of this, Ye Qing regretted the two previous teachings even more.

But in his opinion, he can use this olive branch to realize his wish as soon as possible.

"It's a blessing in disguise, but you don't know it's a blessing." That's what it means!

Under the expectant eyes of Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma, Ye Qing just slowly put down the teacup in his hand.

With his supercilious eyes at the moment, if you give him a feather fan, he will definitely be able to pretend to be more aggressive than Zhuge Kongming: "Do you want to recommend me to Yingtian as a Beijing official?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma looked at Ye Qing and nodded at the same time.

Ye Qing just snorted coldly and said: "With my talent, I can kick Li Shanchang and punch Hu Weiyong!"

"For me to become an official in the capital, I should shoulder the shoulders of the prime minister and the six ministers. If not, I will disdain to be with the mediocre man of the dynasty!"

"Looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, only Xu Da can play a game of chess with me."

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, he immediately closed his eyes.

He was waiting for a voice, waiting for the part-time imperial envoy to say that he was arrogant, and then rushed out of the door.

In his opinion, this must be an inevitable event!

It's a pity that he didn't say that in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and he had to wait nearly a month for his words to reach Zhu Yuanzhang's ears.

But the moment he closed his eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang was about to get up and leave, but he was stopped by Queen Ma!
In order to prevent Ye Qing from hearing what they said, the two had a silent, quarreling exchange.

As far as the tacit understanding between the two of them is concerned, they can know what each other said by looking at each other's mouth shapes without sound.

What Zhu Yuanzhang said was exactly as Ye Qing expected.

But Empress Ma said that this was Ye Qing's deliberate intention to test whether they are imperial envoys or not, as long as this matter is endured, the doubts about their direction as imperial envoys will be completely eliminated.

Only by putting up with this matter, can they start a business cooperation and conduct a comprehensive assessment of Ye Qing.

Under Empress Ma's persuasion, Zhu Yuanzhang took a look at Ye Qing and sat back in his seat!

And their next plan is to give the right to speak to Queen Ma.

One is to prevent them from confronting Maimang again, and the other is that if this continues, she can't bear it anymore.

After Zhu Yuanzhang nodded to Empress Ma, Empress Ma laughed and said, "Your Excellency Ye is really good at joking!"

"If we say that, I'm afraid we have to die before you die."

"If you dare to say such things to him, are we still alive?"

"But I know that Mr. Ye is a good official who wants to do practical things for the people!"

Hearing this gentle and polite voice that was neither humble nor overbearing, Ye Qing also opened his eyes while frowning slightly.

It's true to think about it, what he said can only be regarded as a joke by them.

If they dared to tell Zhu Yuanzhang this, they might be punished for "the crime of not growing their brains", and they might die before him.

In Ye Qing's eyes, this Mr. Guo retreated a little even with his chair, and this lady who was once under his special care sat on his 'opponent' seat.

Looking at the sister of Empress Ma's family, Ye Qing also had such a playful look in his eyes, he only felt that she was qualified to make two moves with him.

At this moment, Empress Ma said with a light smile, "My lord, let's talk about business!"

"Although we have been greatly favored by His Majesty and Your Majesty, we have no official positions after all. We are just businessmen seeking money."

"Business is business, it is our duty."

Hearing these impeccable words, seeing this face that he couldn't hate at all, Ye Qing also suddenly ignited his fighting spirit.

He just glanced at the dripping copper pot from the corner of his eye and said, "Okay, let's see how Mrs. Guo can persuade me to cooperate with you in the remaining time."

While Ye Qing clearly hinted that they were short of time, Empress Ma still talked about the advantages of doing business with them in a leisurely manner.

When Queen Ma talked about these advantages, it can be said that she was well-founded and well-founded.

From Ye Qing's point of view, this Mrs. Guo deserves to be the sister of Empress Ma's clan, this calm and meticulous demeanor is enough to prove it.

But the other advantages she mentioned are not worth mentioning in the eyes of him who is waiting to die.

But there is one advantage that can still make Ye Qing interested, that is, they can use their status as imperial merchants to do part of his Zhu Yuanzhang's business.

For him, Ye Qing, it was another way to provoke Zhu Yuanzhang, so that Zhu Yuanzhang would kill Ye Qing!
Although in Ye Qing's opinion, he no longer needs this door.

But after all, it is always prepared!
Just like that, Ye Qing signed a cooperation agreement with them.

The content of the cooperation agreement is very simple, that is to authorize them to be "Yanmen high-end glazed products, agents in Yingtianfu area"!
Witnessed by the dripping copper kettle, Ye Qing signed the agreement and stamped his personal seal, and Zhu Yuanzhang also signed Guo Rui's name and stamped Guo Rui's private seal!

Finally, the thumbprints of both parties were pressed, and the cooperative relationship was successfully concluded!

Under Zhu Yuanzhang's reluctant gaze, Empress Ma quickly unpacked the package, and after leaving behind the money for the return journey, she handed over all the treasures to Ye Qing.

Ye Qing just beckoned and asked his servant girl to collect it.

At the same time, Ye Qing said to the two: "Although I am a corrupt official, I am a corrupt official who never touches money."

Empress Ma immediately laughed and said, "I understand that Mr. Ye is greedy for the people, and he is guilty of monopolizing the corruption. In fact, his heart is as pure as a mountain and a clear spring, like a lotus flower that emerges from the mud and is not stained. He will definitely not want to touch this stinky thing!"

Hearing these words, Ye Qing just looked at Master Guo, sighed helplessly and said: "A flower, stuck in the cow dung, it's still firmly inserted!"

Speaking of this, Ye Qing directly stepped out with his hands behind his back, allowing the two of them to visit his extravagant reception hall.

When they went out and turned the corner, they even dropped a sentence to invite them to dinner tonight!

However, they were not in the mood to visit. It can also be said that Zhu Yuanzhang was not in the mood to visit. He just wanted to smash these objects and vent his anger.

Outside the reception hall, Ye Qing said to his servant girl: "Take them to dinner tonight, you go and make arrangements."

"My lord, what specification?"

Ye Qing thought for a moment, then immediately said: "Under the bright mirror, I will be King Zhou of Shang!".
　Please follow up with the support of the officials, please recommend tickets, monthly tickets, and reward support, thank you!
