The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 136 The traitor Zhu Yuanzhang and Lord Ye compete for business, Jin Yiwei kills Hu Weiyong for the first time!
Like Yingtian City, the Imperial Palace has already started to turn off the lights on a large scale.

At this moment, the palaces of the concubines in the harem had turned off the lights and went to bed, only the emperor's imperial study room was still brightly lit.

Zhu Yuanzhang still read the memorials that Zhu Biao had reviewed in the past two months with the posture of lighting up the lamp and reading at night.

Although he thought this son was very talented, he was also talented after all!

Although he has been helping him manage the government for several years, it is still the first time he has been in charge of the government, and he has to do a lot of spot checks to be completely at ease!
The other is that Zhu Yuanzhang is such a workaholic who won't stop until he exhausts himself to death.

Of course, if it was only because of these factors, he would still choose to sleep well and wait until tomorrow morning to continue working.

And the real reason why he became a workaholic right after he came back was because he met Ye Qing!
His current attitude towards Ye Qing is very contradictory, not only loves and hates him, but also wants him to help him, and wants to compare him to him.

The emperor worked hard for six years, and the country hadn't developed much, but Nazhi County had worked for less than three years, and the lazier the richer it was.

Every time he thought of this, he felt a sense of frustration of being trampled under by his servants!
In order to reverse this situation, he must catch up!
After randomly checking the memorials reviewed by Zhu Biao, he still needs to sort out what he learned in Yanmen County, to see if he can transfer some of Ye Qing's methods to Yingtian Mansion.

He didn't believe it anymore, a young county magistrate could achieve results, but he, the emperor, couldn't!

Therefore, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

Of course, while spot checking Zhu Biao's review of the memorial and sorting out what he has learned, he also has to make another arrangement about Ye Qing!

Seeing the dust that suddenly fell from the beams onto the paper of the memorial, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned immediately: "Let the people on the roof roll down to meet us!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Not long after the permanent eunuch walked out, he brought in a dozen men in black, and then he retreated sensiblely.

Just as the door of the imperial study room was closed, a dozen men in black all took off their masks.

Yes, they are Mao Xiang and the other twelve pro-military guards who followed him and Zhu Yuanzhang as a prisoner.

Looking at the 13 people kneeling on one knee, Zhu Yuanzhang closed the memorial directly, and then walked in front of them with a serious face.

"Did you all rest well during the day?"

Zhu Yuanzhang just said in a low voice.

Mao Xiang and the others didn't dare to answer, they knew that their good days would be over after they came back, and if there were no accidents, they would definitely be reprimanded.

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to be serious: "Except for General Mao, all of you young fellows must be remembered by us. You are all the ones that Ye Qing carried through the streets in pig cages."

"Don't fuck it, just remember the blond-haired, blue-eyed, white-skinned wild horse, and the North Korean girl who was known as the maidservant of Silla in the Tang Dynasty!"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes are bright, and they all have the fighting spirit to know their shame and be brave!

Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "You are Zhu Yuanzhang's pro-army, the soldiers with the best armor, the best weapons, and the best conditions for food, accommodation and training!"

"But you lost, to an organization called the 'Secret Service Brigade' by a mere seventh-rank county magistrate!"

"We are ashamed of you!"

"I am ashamed of you!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang uttered the word "zhen", everyone's hearts were chilled, and they habitually thought that they were dead.

But then they felt something was wrong again!
As early as when they returned to the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang told them not to worry about anything, go back to sleep and rest quickly, and then come to see them at night in black!
If it is to punish them for their crimes, there is absolutely no need to do so.

Just when everyone looked up at Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to say firmly: "You should know your shame and be brave, and you should learn from those who humiliated you, so as to surpass them!"

"I have now decided to abolish the pro-army Duwei Mansion and Yiluan Division, and let you set up a mission similar to their spy brigade."

"They know how to detect with makeup, and you are better than them at detecting with makeup!"

"They will follow, you will be better than them!"

"They will spy at night, and you will be better than them at night!"

"."

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang's words fell, everyone nodded firmly, and assured Zhu Yuanzhang that they would know their shame and be brave, and they would never let him down again.

Hearing such an answer, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer cared about their faults, and then showed them two pieces of paper with three characters and six characters written on them.

Three words written on the first piece of paper: Jinyiwei!

The six words written on the second piece of paper: Commander of Jin Yiwei!
Zhu Yuanzhang continued: "From now on, you are our Jinyiwei, and you Mao Xiang is the first Jinyiwei commander."

"You must come up with Jin Yiwei's training plan within seven days. The plan comes from the memories that humiliated you in your mind."

When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized.

This is the purpose of His Majesty asking them to wear this suit. It is not to hold them accountable, but to let them use the agents as teachers and train them to be better than agents.

When we meet again next time, we will be ashamed!
In fact, they only guessed half of it, and Zhu Yuanzhang's real purpose for letting them wear night clothes was to ask them to practice it tonight.

Zhu Yuanzhang said with ear hair: "Tonight, you sneak into Hu Weiyong's house and see what they are discussing."

"This is the first thing you have to accomplish since Jinyiwei was established."

With that said, Zhu Yuanzhang spread out the memorial again to show them the ashes falling from the beams.

After seeing these ashes, everyone immediately realized their mistake!

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang just said in a low voice: "If the teacher is unfavorable, Jin Yiwei will be gone!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang said the word "no more", his voice was deliberately aggravated and dragged a little.

"Sir, take the lead!"

As soon as Mao Xiang finished his sentence, he led the twelve senior young men of Jinyiwei to cover their faces, and then disappeared in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang stood outside the imperial study room, watched Mao Xiang and the others disappear, and then looked in the direction of Yanmen County.

At the same time, he has already foreseen the future scene of going to Yanmen again, and by that time, his Jinyiwei should make Ye Qing's agents suffer a bit.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang returned to his dragon case with a smile.

After a while, he finished reviewing the memorials reviewed by Zhu Biao. Although he felt that it was not thoughtful, he was still satisfied.

Immediately afterwards, he began to draw a picture, and the name of his picture was "Overview of Yingtianfu Industrial Park"!
After writing the title of the picture, he wrote again: The proposed site is on the east bank of the Qinhuai River.

For this location, Zhu Yuanzhang has thought carefully.

In his opinion, it is very reasonable to establish an industrial park on the bank of the Qinhuai River. Although the hydraulic industrial machinery technology has not yet been obtained, after the technology is obtained, it can be added at any time.

At the same time, after wealthy businessmen come here to buy goods, they will go to the nearest brothel street on the west bank of the Qinhuai River for consumption.

At that time, he will also come to a brothel and the tax will be [-]% of the turnover!
If the business is booming, he can continue to raise taxes!
Thinking of this, he reluctantly said, "Thank you, Mr. Ye, for teaching me" in his heart!
"Come on, make tea!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of tea, he began to work hard on his plan again.

While drawing the picture, he had already seen the future scene in this regard.

Nowadays, only Yanmen County has an industrial park. In the past, business travelers from foreign countries in the north and business travelers from all over the country who bought goods have increased as the reputation of Yanmen Industrial Park has grown.

He thought that after his industrial park was completed, the Han merchants in the south, as well as the Daming and Mongolian merchants who had gold and silver, would also come to Yingtian to buy goods.

Not only that, business travelers from North Korea, Japan, Ryukyu and other places will also come here to buy goods.

In this way, a lot of gold and silver will flow into Zhu Yuanzhang's pocket!

If you're lucky, you can even snatch some of Ye Qing's business in the north!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that the tea in his hand was extremely fragrant!
Of course, the most fragrant tea is the cup of tea from Ye Qing's mansion that he drank while showing off his Yingtian Industrial Park in front of Ye Qing when he went to Yanmen again!
After Zhu Yuanzhang put down the teacup, he continued to work hard for his beautiful dream.

At the same time, Mao Xiang and the others also lay on the roof of the upper hall of Hu Weiyong's mansion without anyone noticing it.

At this moment, the hall of Hu Weiyong's mansion is not brightly lit, but a few candles are lit, so as not to cause people to fall while walking.

In the dim candlelight,
On the coffee table next to the main seat where Hu Weiyong was sitting, there were four things.

The two things on the left are the thousand-column banknotes that Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded Lord Meng of the Imperial Academy and Lord Wang of the Ministry of Officials.

The rolled up banknotes wrapped a century-old ginseng and tied it with a yellow ribbon. It was really what it was like when Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded it, and what it looks like now.

And the two things on the right are two bloody white pants!

In front of Hu Weiyong, Kong Kebiao and Tu Jie looked at these four things with puzzled eyes.

Kong Kebiao asked, "Mr. Hu, what do you mean Your Majesty?"

Tu Jie was also puzzled and said: "Yeah, as soon as I came back, I beat up the examiner who made Ye Qing admitted to Juren, and the officials who made Ye Qing go to be the county magistrate, and then rewarded him with a lot of money. What's the meaning?"

Hu Weiyong just used a tureen to throw away the tea in the teacup, savoring the bitterness on the tip of his tongue and the faint sweetness, as if he was in control of everything.

After a while, Hu Weiyong said: "Actually, I have heard the truth. That Ye Qing is a talent, but he is also a person who behaves pervertedly and does not follow the law."

"Presumably, His Majesty appreciates his talent, but hates him!"

"It can also be said that he surprised His Majesty, and made His Majesty very angry!"

"Because it's a private visit, His Majesty has been holding back, just now he got back and vented his anger on those two so-called benefactors who promoted Ye Qing."

"Your Majesty is also a person who distinguishes between rewards and punishments. Hit him because he was angered, and reward him because he found out."

When Kong Kebiao and Tu Jie heard this, they suddenly realized and nodded.

Kong Kebiao immediately said: "Such a person, should we recruit them, maybe they can be used by us."

Tu Jie also nodded and said: "Master Kong is right, do you want to try a letter?"

Hu Weiyong got angry when he heard this, he didn't want to be scolded again, 'You're a fart'.

Hu Weiyong just smiled and said: "Such people are not easy to control, and keeping them is a disaster. We can only get rid of them and then quickly."

"Wait, this person will always piss off His Majesty, and that is our chance!"

When Kong Kebiao and Tu Jie heard this, they also felt that it made sense. Instead of taking the risk to win over such a person, it would be better to kill him and then send someone trustworthy to take over the territory.

And at this moment,
On the roof above them, although they were humiliated in Yanmen County, the thirteen black-clothed men who had long since resolved their grudges and were treated by Ye Qingchao all had fierce eyes.

They have only one thought now, and that is to pull out their sabers, rush down and kill the three of them!
　Please follow up with the support of the officials, please recommend tickets, monthly tickets, and reward support, thank you!
