The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 263: Lord Ye and brothers Xu Chengda reward the generals for Zhu Yuanzhang. Some generals have some but not the emperor!

The people at this large table looked at Lan Yu at this moment and felt that they saw the word "rules" alive.

Lan Yu's gesture of saluting Xu Da, whether it was the curvature of her waist or the posture of her hands, even her facial expressions, eyes and tone, were all very regular.

It's not that Lan Yu was completely disrespectful when she saw Xu Da before, or when she asked the superior general for instructions.

He doesn't have the courage to be arrogant in front of them yet, but he seems to be very carefree. Whether it is words, deeds or behavior, everyone can see a word.

That is, 'In addition to being older than me, how else can you be better than me'!
That’s not the most extreme thing!
Everyone knows that there is a rule in the Ming Dynasty, that is, the dragon chair in the palace belongs to Zhu Yuanzhang and his son, and the commander's seat of the Chinese army's tent in Xuanwu Lake Camp belongs to Xu Da.

You must know that Tang He didn't dare to sit on that high chair, but he, Lan Yu, secretly sat on it once, with a look of aloofness in his eyes. If it had been another person, all ten heads would have been chopped off by Xu Da.

That is to say, for the sake of the late Chang Yuchun, Xu Dacai only spanked him thirty times with a military stick. It was really a spanking that made his butt blossom!

But this blue jade is not soft at all, no matter how hard you hit it, you won't say a soft word.

But because of this, Xu Da also felt that Lan Yu was a malleable talent and had the hope of taking over his position after he couldn't move.

But before that, he must get rid of his arrogant and aloof habit!

If you don't change this bad habit, the higher you climb, the more miserable your death will be!

After Xu Da told Zhu Yuanzhang his thoughts, Zhu Yuanzhang also felt that this was the case, so he refused to let him enter the ranks of princes.

But not only did this guy not understand their painstaking efforts, he also felt that they were unfair and became even more arrogant and aloof.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da looked at Lan Yu at this moment and had the same idea instantly.

Xu Da secretly exclaimed: "A person who neither I nor Your Majesty can teach will become good after just one visit?"

Zhu Yuanzhang secretly exclaimed: "A person who neither we nor Xu Da can teach will change his rules when he comes to Yanmen County?"

by candlelight,

There were ten people sitting around a large round table with twelve seats. Except for Wu Yong, who didn't know Lan Yu very well, and Shen Wan'er, who didn't understand Lan Yu at all, the seven people all showed varying degrees of shock on their faces.

Only Ye Qing just picked up the exquisite wine glass in front of him and tasted the fine wine in the glass.

At this moment, Queen Ma, who was the first to react, immediately shifted her gaze from Lan Yu to Ye Qing.

After Empress Ma saw Ye Qing's calm expression and his eyes as if he was in control of the world, she immediately remembered that Ye Qing asked him to help him say a few "kind words" in front of the empress.

She still remembers the completely unreasonable 'beautiful words' that Ye Qing requested, 'His Majesty the Emperor cannot discipline people well, but I, Ye Qing, a seventh-grade county magistrate, can discipline them obediently. '

Although such kind words were unreasonable, she just laughed it off because she didn't believe that Ye Qing had such ability.

But the scene in front of her forced her to think about this!
"Could it be."

Just when Empress Ma was thinking about it, Xu Da just nodded happily and said, "That's the person sitting next to me."

Everyone's eyes were focused on Lan Yu and Ye Qing at this moment.

Lan Yu looked at Ye Qing, who was on the same rank as Xu Da, and was just as shocked as Xu Da and others when they first met Ye Qing, because of the appearance that was completely inconsistent with the political achievements and achievements in front of them.

But his and Xu Da's feelings are fundamentally different. After all, they are people who have been educated by the mysterious man in black.

Because of this, when he looked at the young man in front of him, he immediately felt something even more mysterious than the mysterious man in black!

Is such an expert just a shadow guard thug for the young people in front of him?
One can imagine what kind of master Ye, who is younger than him, is in front of him?
Maybe he, Ye Qing, doesn't have the power to restrain a chicken!
But he can make a peerless master become the shadow of a powerless person like him!

Lan Yu once again recalled what the mysterious man in black had said on behalf of Ye Qing, and felt that everything was reasonable.

The person in front of him has the ability to make his blue jade awaken, and naturally he also has the ability to make the mysterious man in black willingly loyal to him.

Thinking of this, Lan Yu looked at Ye Qing with the word 'convinced' written in her eyes.

In front of everyone, he bowed to Ye Qing: "Lanyu thanks Master Ye for his teachings. Lan Yu will remember this for the rest of his life!"

As soon as Lan Yu finished speaking, the eyes of everyone sitting around the round table lit up at the same time.

Even Ye Qing's right-hand assistant Wu Yong was confused and had no idea what was going on.

Before everyone could react, Ye Qing stood up, walked up to Lan Yu, and looked at him with a look that said, "You can teach a kid."

At the same time, Ye Qing's peripheral vision glanced at the incredible Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo.

"You two, the emperor cannot discipline you, but I can discipline you to obey. This sentence is about to be performed in front of you."

"I don't believe you won't speak kind words for me?"

Thinking of this, Ye Qing stopped looking at Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo, and just supported Lan Yu's elbows with both hands and said: "General Lan Yu, please rise. It's a small gesture, no need to say thank you."

"I am doing this just to give my Ming Dynasty a real general!"

When Lan Yu heard these words, he originally just bowed and clasped his fists, but immediately prepared to thank his teacher. If Ye Qing hadn't supported his elbow, he would have gone down directly!

"General, hurry up!"

"If the general wants to thank me, then before the banquet begins, he can borrow a glass of wine from me to apologize to the generals, and then happily eat the reception banquet I prepared for the generals!"

Lan Yu smiled heartily and said there was no problem at all.

While everyone was in a state of confusion, Lan Yu walked directly to the maid, took the glass wine bottle from the tray in her hand, and began to pour wine into Xu Da's wine glass.

But just as he was about to pour wine into his own glass, he suddenly shouted to the maid: "Bring me the wine bowl, General."

"Cough cough!"

Ye Qing just coughed lightly, and Lan Yu reacted immediately and said sheepishly: "Sorry, I'm used to it."

Then, he said to the maid: "Please bring me a wine bowl for my general."

Seeing Lan Yu's teachable performance, Ye Qing gave a faint smile of satisfaction. It was really the expression of a mentor who was pleased with his disciple's progress.

At the same time, Ye Qing continued to teach: "This is my residence. You have to remember that my maids are my maids. I can treat them as maids, or I can let them do what maids should do for you. "

"But you have to respect her as if she were a eldest lady!"

"As for your maid, you don't need to respect her as a eldest lady, but at least you should treat her as a human being."

“Emperors and queens are human beings, princes and earls are human beings, and traffickers and foot soldiers are human beings too!”

Lan Yu nodded and said: "Be taught, Lan Yu will keep it in mind."

After a while, the wine bowl was delivered to Lan Yu's hand. Lan Yu poured a full bowl of wine for herself, and then faced Xu Da and said: "Xu Shuai, I didn't know the heights of the world before, and it was me who was arrogant. I didn’t think about it that much.”

"You obviously tolerated me a lot because of your brother-in-law's sake, but I didn't know it!"

"In last year's battle, you obviously made me a vanguard general and put all the best cavalry in my hands in order to help me make more contributions, but I thought, 'Xu Shuai defeated me but won twice in a row. '!"

"To this day, I still feel that I have talent and ability, and I am born to be a general. With time, I will become the champion Hou Huo Qubing!"

"But now I know better that victory is never the result of one person. As a general, you should not be arrogant in victory or discouraged in defeat, and conduct yourself in the world."

In this way, Lan Yu summed up what he learned from the mysterious man in black directly in his own words in front of everyone.

After summing up, he began to toast and apologize to Xu Da, and even drank such a large bowl of wine first as a token of respect.

Xu Da looked at Lan Yu in front of him and felt that the child suddenly became enlightened.

After Xu Da drank the wine with a smile, he immediately asked: "Lanyu, do you think this is what Master Ye taught you?"

But before Lan Yu could answer, he turned around and looked at Ye Qing, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Didn't Mr. Ye rest in the bedroom and then prepare gifts for us?"

"Master Ye, is this the gift you prepared for us?"

"This meeting gift is really great!"

As he said that, Xu Da's gaze towards Ye Qing immediately changed fundamentally. He really looked at his father-in-law and his son-in-law, and the more he looked at him, the closer he became to his son!

Ye Qing just smiled and said: "It can be considered as one of the gifts!"

"Xiaguan indeed went to prepare other greeting gifts for you after taking a good rest."

"So, I asked one of Xiaguan's thugs to help educate General Lan Yu halfway."

Saying that, Ye Qing sat down again and glanced at Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo opposite him with his peripheral vision.

Ye Qing expressed that he was very satisfied with their current facial expressions and eyes, but he also felt that it was not enough, so he had to add more fire.

After making such a plan, Ye Qing looked at Lan Yu again and said seriously: "General Lan Yu, I will teach you one more thing. A real man must dare to face his most miserable past!"

"You see everyone is so curious, just tell us what happened to you tonight out loud!"

"No one will feel ashamed of you, everyone will just feel lucky for you!"

Lan Yu naturally agreed respectfully to Ye Qing's words, and then he told what happened tonight from beginning to end.

He first talked about the mysterious man in black who made a soldier fly into the rice field with a knife and a kick, and the high-powered force that turned him into a puddle of mud with a single strike.

Immediately afterwards, he recounted the words of the mysterious man in black who acted as a messenger to educate him for Ye Qing.

Finally, he also told about Ye Qing's good intentions from outside the city to anger him!

Just when Lan Yu finished all this, Ye Qing reminded him seriously again: "General Lan Yu, did you make a mistake in telling a detail?"

"The so-called mysterious man in black, who is the shadow guard thug of Xiaguan, is obviously a disabled person who has lost his right arm and only has his left arm!"

Lan Yu was immediately stunned after hearing this. Why is he a disabled person?
He is obviously a pretending disabled person!
It was only after he discovered that the mysterious man in black was a pretended disabled person that he more vividly understood what "complete failure" means, and "there is a world outside the sky, and there are people outside the world."

Thinking about the blue jade hero who never failed in his life, but in the end he was beaten up by someone pretending to be a disabled person. If this is not vivid enough, it is really a ghost!

Therefore, he will remember this matter for the rest of his life, and he will definitely not remember it wrong!

But it is such a thing that is absolutely infallible. How could Mr. Ye give such a serious reminder?
Thinking of this, Lan Yu immediately remembered the scene of the mysterious man in black having cramps.

He was certain that the mysterious man in black was not deliberately showing it to them, but that he really had leg cramps.

In other words, the mysterious man in black didn't know at all at the time. They saw him stretching out his right arm to support the tree trunk and sighing about cramps.

"Could it be,"

"Master Ye doesn't want people to know that his shadow guard thug is not a disabled person?"

Just when Lan Yu was thinking like this, Wu Yong immediately said: "I remembered that Master Ye has such a shadow guard thug."

"But I've only seen it once!"

"Do you know why the commander-in-chief of Yanmen's four garrison admires our Lord Ye?"

"In terms of strategy and tactics, they lost to our Lord Ye. In terms of personal martial arts, they were easily defeated by the one-armed mysterious man in black, and they also received a lesson."

"Yes, he is indeed a disabled person with only his left arm!"

After saying that, Wu Yong also looked at Ye Qing, his eyes full of curiosity: "Master Ye, who is this person and where is he?"

Ye Qing still just smiled faintly, and then glanced at Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo opposite him from the corner of his eye.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Qing pretended to be mysterious and said: "I said he is a shadow guard thug, so naturally he cannot be seen in the light."

"As for my character, I don't take the emperor and the nobles of Huaixi seriously. If I don't prepare for such a number one person, I'm afraid I don't know how I died."

After saying that, Ye Qing looked at Mr. Guo and Mrs. Guo who could talk to the emperor and the empress, and explained seriously: "Don't get me wrong, I am not preparing such a number one person to guard against the emperor, but just to protect the emperor." Be on guard against Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong." "It is reasonable for a person like me, who has no power, to prepare such a number one figure!"

Empress Ma looked at Ye Qing in front of her, and couldn't help but reply secretly: "Whether it is reasonable or not is aside from the discussion, but what you said makes me suspect that you are looking for death."

Queen Ma really wanted to give up on Ye Qing!

The saying "Mud cannot hold up a wall" is very suitable when applied to Ye Qing at this moment.

But that's the same sentence. People who suffer and suffer may seek death, but people like him who live like gods will never really seek death.

It’s just the way he speaks, just like his letter that seems to be asking for death!
But when she thought about the people who even the emperor and Xu Da couldn't educate even if they worked together, they were really taught obediently by Ye Qing, the mentally and physically exhausted Empress Ma wanted to 'rescue' Ye Qing again.

There is no other reason,

Because for a person who neither the Emperor nor Marshal Xu could educate, being educated so well by a seventh-grade county magistrate is a manifestation of ability.

If he were brought to the capital, Ye Qing, to be the teacher of the princes and princesses, wouldn’t everyone be the best among them?

Thinking of this, Queen Ma once again had the fighting spirit to rescue Ye Qing!
But she also kept hinting to herself that why Ye Qing was so angry with his family Chongba now, how could she just let Ye Qing be a cow and a horse after getting Ye Qing to the capital.

He is responsible for industrial construction, economic development, agricultural development, and the education of princes and princesses.

This is called being angry with the emperor and the empress for a while, but working for the emperor and empress will be a lifetime of suffering!

Queen Ma has absolute confidence in this!
Because she can be sure that Ye Qing is a person who is as tough as his knees when he gets to the capital.

After arriving in the capital, Ye Qing's life was no longer in his own hands, it was in the hands of his wife and they, no matter how soft they were!
But no matter how good your plans for the future are, you still have to pass the current hurdle!
Thinking of this, Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang next to her out of the corner of her eye.

She never expected that behind Ye Qing there would be such a one-armed mysterious man in black!

The key is his statement "It's definitely not to protect the emperor", coupled with his provocative expression and tone, it's really difficult to say that he is not "there is no 300 taels of silver here"!
At the same time that Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang from the corner of her eye, everyone looked at him from the corner of their eyes.

Because he was not Zhu Yuanzhang in front of Ye Qing, everyone could only look at the so-called Master Guo with their peripheral vision.

In the eyes of everyone, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was livid, his eyes were cold, and his whole person felt colder than the ice and snow outside.

"Ha ha!"

In everyone's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang just gave a forced laugh, then looked directly into Ye Qing's eyes and said: "I never expected that Lord Ye would imitate Lord Mengchang in raising followers!"

"You really can't let me wait to meet such an expert?"

Ye Qing walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "The way to see him is very simple!"

"What method?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes immediately lit up and he asked curiously.

Ye Qing's eyes instantly flashed with a trace of reminiscence. He recalled the scene before time travel when he was a child, when he deliberately angered his classmates and asked for a fight.

He pointed at his eyes, nose, mouth, and face and said, "Come and beat me. You can choose ABCD. I beg to be beaten!"

Thinking of this, Ye Qing also pointed at his eyes, nose, mouth, and face in front of Mr. Guo in front of him and said: "You can choose from A, B, C, or D. You can slap them wherever you want, or punch them hard."

"Just wait and see if he jumps out from somewhere and beats you to pieces!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Qing looked at the man in front of him with amusement, Mr. Guo, who could talk to His Majesty the Emperor.

He was just waiting for a slap or a punch!
When the time comes, he can absolutely guarantee that Mr. Guo will powerfully prove his crime of "a common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a jade" in front of Zhu Yuanzhang!
At the same time, he can also guarantee that Mrs. Guo will also give him a few 'kind words' in his own way!
Looking at the scene in front of them, Xu Da and others could only stare with wide eyes and gasp, but did not dare to make a sound.

In their eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang had already begun to show signs of trembling at the corners of his mouth and slight twitching of his eyes, which were the prelude to facial paralysis caused by a stroke.

But there was still no obvious murderous intent in his eyes.

One can imagine how big the fire was in his chest and how much perseverance he used to suppress it.

In other words, the floor of Ye Qing's residence was of excellent quality. Otherwise, it would definitely be crushed by his toes that were pressed down with all his strength!

Zhu Yuanzhang, the black-clad Zhu Yuanzhang in Zhu Yuanzhang's inner world, had already started to greet the "A, B, C, D" on Ye Qing's face with a mace and an iron bone flower.

But Zhu Yuanzhang in white next to Zhu Yuanzhang in black kept reminding him: "If you want to be beaten until your teeth are all over the floor in front of your sister and so many brothers, just jump up, give him a slap, and then patch it up." One punch.”

"If the face of the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not worth anything, just do this!"

"It's just that a hundred years later, there will be an unofficial legend that Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was beaten to a pulp by the retainers of the Qipin County Magistrate!"

"."

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang became the cheap businessman Mr. Guo again.

He just smiled awkwardly and said: "We won't do this kind of loss-making business. We don't need to get beaten up just to meet an unrelated person."

Ye Qing was very dissatisfied with Master Guo's answer.

But before he could continue to raise the topic, Mrs. Guo next to him began to change the topic.

Empress Ma just smiled and said: "Master Ye, you are right. dignitaries and dignitaries are surrounded by guards. It is indeed reasonable for you to have a guard."

"My master is just curious because he is so powerful!"

"I'm hungry, your Wan'er is hungry, and everyone is hungry too. If we don't eat anymore, the dishes will be cold!"

Everyone saw that the emperor couldn't bear it anymore and the queen still wanted to protect Ye Qing, so they naturally started to cry out that they were hungry.

Seeing that the situation was like this, Ye Qing was too embarrassed to continue talking and started the banquet directly!
Under the candlelight at this moment, there was another sound of laughter and peace.

Lan Yu successively toasted and apologized to Tang He, Li Wenzhong, Fu Youde, and Geng Bingwen, and simply smiled away the grudges.

Ye Qing and the generals ate and drank lavishly, but they also rolled up their sleeves and tried to beat ten of them in terms of drinking capacity!
But in the eyes of everyone, Ye Qing and Mr. Guo across from him felt more or less like they couldn't get rid of the smell of gunpowder, and they looked like they were fighting to the death over their drinking capacity.

But overall, it’s still a very pleasant atmosphere!

As they sang with melodious voices, dancers of various styles danced around them. From time to time, they would sit on the laps of Xu Da and others and wink at them, and even feed them a glass of wine.

Only Ye Qing and Zhu Yuanzhang did not receive this treatment!

Ye Qing didn't want this treatment. As for Mr. Guo in front of him, he just warned him in advance that he was not allowed to receive this treatment!

Ye Qing raised two glasses of high-strength liquor and handed one to Mr. Guo in front of him. Then he said with a half-drunk smile: "Mr. Guo, I know that you love your wife deeply."

"Not only do I love her deeply, but I also respect her very much. I am definitely not afraid of my mother-in-law!"

"So, I told them in advance not to touch you!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Xu Da and others who were very happy. Even Mao Xiang and Wu Yong were very happy, but he was the only one sitting on the bench.

Thinking of this, the fire in his chest couldn't help but rush upward.

In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang really didn't have much interest. It's just that successful people have a mentality of 'not worrying about scarcity, but worrying about inequality'.

It doesn't matter if everyone doesn't have him, but it's very annoying if he doesn't!

Not only that, this man is so eloquent that he always talks about his "respect for his wife"!
He recorded this account for Ye Qing!
Then, he smiled again and said, "Thank you, Mr. Ye."

As soon as he finished speaking, he drank the glass of liquor in one gulp, which was like a knife in his throat.

At this moment, Xu Da and others, who were still eating and drinking generously, looked at the scene in front of them and finally understood why Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to beat up the examiners and officials who promoted Ye Qing after he returned to the court incognito for the first time. Enjoy a meal.

Beating people because they promoted them is so hateful!
The reward is because the people they promote are really talented!
Thinking of this, they just felt that Zhu Yuanzhang was too kind. If it were them, they would definitely kill the examiners and officials after venting their anger, and then reward their wives with a handsome young man as a reward.

Of course, this is just a metaphor, a very vivid metaphor!

But when Lan Yu looked at this scene, she had another feeling!
"Master Ye taught me another lesson!"

"Now I finally understand why the mysterious man in black keeps saying 'except Mr. Ye'."

"I'm almost apoplectic. The emperor continues to pretend to be a cheap businessman. This is why."

"With this kind of ability and strength, only then can you have the capital to be arrogant and aloof. Without capital, even a dragon has to be taken care of!"

Thinking of this, Lan Yu, who was already mostly drunk, glanced at the cheap businessman Mr. Guo again.

"It's so damn right. I don't have any capital, and I have to keep a dragon that big!"

"."

After half an hour,
Xu Da immediately stopped and said: "Master Ye, thank you for the hospitality, but we can't drink any more. If we drink too much, we won't be able to leave tomorrow."

Ye Qing put his hand on Xu Da's shoulder and said, "What are you talking about?"

"Wang Baobao only has 6 or [-] people left, and they still lack food and drink. Can they return to Helin as fast as you?"

"You can't do anything too well, right?"

"You have been marching for such a long time, let the soldiers rest for two or three days, and let the subordinates play with you for two or three more days!"

"Wait until the army has rested before setting off. They have just arrived, and you have just arrived. In comparison, you are just waiting for work, right?"

Li Wenzhong, Tang He and others, who were half drunk, immediately agreed: "Yes, what Mr. Ye said makes sense!"

But at this moment, Xu Da pushed Ye Qing away and said: "You don't regard me as a brother. You even drank the wine and drank the wine, and you still drink a low-ranking officer. Where is the marshal here and where is the low-ranking officer?"

"On the wine table, there are only brothers!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the people in front of him who had become brothers after drinking. He really felt as if he couldn't get drunk even with white wine and couldn't blend in.

But at this moment, Xu Da suddenly got excited and sang "The Book of Songs, Qin Feng, Wu Yi" just because he mentioned the words "brothers in the same robe".

"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you!"

"Wang Yuxing, repair my spear, and share the hatred with my son!"

"How can I say that I have no clothes? I am in the same boat as you!"

"Wang Yu Xingshi, repair my spear and halberd, and work with my son!"

"How can I say that I have no clothes? I wear the same clothes as you!"

"Wang Yuxing, repair my armor and walk with my son!"

"."

Suddenly, all the singing and dancing girls retreated sensibly, and the dining room was filled with majestic singing!
This time, Zhu Yuanzhang successfully blended in, just because he saw Wen Cheng's general spirit in Ye Qing again!

After a while, the reception banquet came to a successful end.

Ye Qing just applauded, and several tailors holding rulers and several maids holding trays came.

When everyone saw this scene, they were half sober in an instant!
Xu Da immediately asked: "Brother Ye, what do you mean?"

Ye Qing smiled lightly and said: "I said that a good blue jade is just one of the greeting gifts. This is the meeting gift I have prepared for everyone!"

With that said, Ye Qing said to the tailors: "Be careful with your measurements, remember the generals' armor patterns, and then give the data to the Yanmen Arsenal."

Then, he looked at Xu Da and the others and said, "I will tailor a set of armor for you, including your sabers and good use of long weapons!"

"You must have seen the weapons and armor of my Yanmen soldiers!"

"When I pay the agricultural tax, I will take these things to Shuai Xu's house. Everyone can go get them then!"

As he said that, Ye Qing picked up a special 'Supreme Membership Card' from the tray and said, "Before departure, you can eat, drink, play and buy things in the county for free!"

It’s still the same old rules, all the generals have them, except Mr. Guo doesn’t have them! …
