The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 362 Master Ye fights two thousand-year-old families. Xu Da said to Zhu Yuanzhang, let their talents meet the soldiers!

Under the dome of Fengtian Hall surrounded by golden dragons,

Zhu Yuanzhang had just recovered from his anger when Kong Kebiao, a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, suddenly stood up.

Hu Weiyong didn't even look at him, he just stared straight at the floor in front of him.

Because he already knew what Kong Kebiao was going to do, and it was just to find something for Ye Qing to do so that he would not be so idle.

It's just that the difficulty of this matter is really no less difficult than the Northern Expedition.

Behind Hu Weiyong, Lu Ben used his peripheral vision to look at Kong Kebiao, who was determined to win, and his eyes immediately became profound.

He was powerless to prevent this from happening, but he hoped that Ye Qing could survive it!

As long as he, Ye Qing, completes the tasks Kong Kebiao asks him to do, he will be the best in the world!

In this way, Ye Qing's promotion to the imperial court was a definite matter after Ningbo Magistrate resigned.

As long as Ye Qing comes here, he is sure that Ye Qing will become his grandson's teacher in the future!

In fact, Lu Ben didn't know what trouble Kong Kebiao wanted to find for Ye Qing. They were not the same people, so there was no way to know their plans.

But he was certain that the thing that made him, Kong Kebiao, so determined to win, must be something that, in his opinion, would be difficult for Ye Qing to reach the sky.

As long as Zhu Yuanzhang agrees to leave this kind of difficult matter to Ye Qing, it will naturally be the greatest achievement in the world.

But if you can't do it, then life will be difficult!

From Lu Ben's point of view, even if Zhu Yuanzhang knew that they were trying to trick Ye Qing, he would probably leave it to Ye Qing!

There is no other reason,

Just because Kong Kebiao is speaking on behalf of all Huaixi nobles this time!

Thinking of this, he began to worry about Ye Qing out of his own "lofty ambitions" purpose.

Xu Da could naturally think of what Lu Ben could have thought of.

When Xu Da thought of this, he also looked at Kong Kebiao, and his eyes immediately became profound.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, looked at the scene below and took everything into consideration.

Far away from Ye Qing, Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang's IQ can be said to be very online.

After all, no one in the civil and military circles of this dynasty has the ability to make him lose his mind with anger!

"If you have something to say, just say it!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked straight at Kong Kebiao with his sword-like eyes, and said in a cold and low voice.

When Kong Kebiao heard this, he was immediately shocked and his legs became weak subconsciously.

He was definitely afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang, but he also knew that as long as he didn't rebel, as long as he didn't kill the Emperor and the Empress, he would never die.

There is no other reason,

Just because his surname is Kong, his fifty-fifth direct descendant is Confucius!

Thinking of this, Kong Kebiao immediately became heartbroken and kowtowed directly in the tunnel: "Your Majesty, I am guilty!"

"If I cannot complete the tasks entrusted to me by Your Majesty, I will pilot and promote the missions of [dividing the land into acres] and [the gentry will work as one and pay for the food as one]."

"I have no way to complete this errand in my hometown of Guide Prefecture in Henan Province and Mencius' hometown of Jining Prefecture in Shandong Province."

"Please, Your Majesty, choose another worthy person!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was about to explode with anger.

He had previously thought that as long as he stayed away from Ye Qing, no one in the world could make him tremble with anger.

But now there is such a person, and that is the Bachelor of Confucius who is kneeling below.

Even if he is so angry that he is about to lose his mind, he still knows who he is referring to by 'choose another person with talents'.

It’s nothing more than asking Ye Qing to promote and implement these two national policies!

They didn't know that these two policies were apparently national policies thought up by Zhu Yuanzhang, but they were actually reported by him, Ye Qing, and then embezzled by him, Zhu Yuanzhang.

If Ye Qing was really allowed to do it on his own, he would be implementing the national policy he came up with!

In fact, this is not a good thing.

Implementing the national policies you have come up with yourself is undoubtedly the most certain and best choice for getting things done.

But there is a prerequisite for this, that is, you cannot go to Guide Prefecture in Henan and Jining Prefecture in Shandong.

Guide Prefecture in Henan is the hometown of Confucius, and Jining Prefecture in Shandong is the hometown of Mencius. These two places are also the "prefecture places" of Confucius and Mencius!

At first, the reason why he asked Kong Kebiao to do this was out of good intentions.

He thought that by using Kong Kebiao's prestige in Confucius and Mencius to settle them, he could convey a message to the world.

That is, both Confucius and Mencius agreed with these two new national policies. What reason did the scholar-bureaucrats in the world have to obstruct them?

As long as the scholar-bureaucrats in the world are settled, these two new national policies will be implemented smoothly throughout the country!

But he never expected that his decision would directly become an opportunity for the Huaixi nobles to take revenge on Ye Qing.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze towards Kong Kebiao, who was kneeling on the ground, became even sharper.

He really wanted to chop him into eight big pieces with one knife!

But he is not only a direct descendant of Confucius, but also the patriarch of the Confucian family at that time!

His identity is much more effective than a death-free gold medal!

Besides, if he couldn't get the job done, the most he could do was scold him for being incompetent, but it couldn't be a reason to kill someone.

After all, he did not pretend to be good, and he was not a criminal who deceived the emperor. Even his behavior of openly admitting that he was not good was worthy of praise.

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang also suddenly felt a sense of frustration that he had nowhere to vent his anger.

At this moment, Xu Da, Wang Baobao, Li Wenzhong and others immediately understood their viciousness after hearing these words.

Obviously, the next thing is to recommend Ye Qing to handle this matter.

With the talent that Ye Qing has shown now, it can definitely be the reason for them to recommend Ye Qing, and it is a legitimate reason that does not involve any personal grudges.

The saying 'the capable work hard' is wrong in Ye Qing's eyes, but in the eyes of these people, it is the right thing to do!

"Don't show off!"

When Wang Baobao thought of this, he rushed out to find Kong Kebiao's theory.

But just as he was about to take a step, Xu Da stopped him softly.

Although Wang Baobao looked unhappy, he still chose to listen to Xu Da's words.

He knew that Xu Da would not harm Ye Qing. Xu Da must have his own reasons for keeping him quiet.

Just when Wang Baobao was thinking like this, Zhu Yuanzhang took another deep breath and said with a slight smile: "Kong Aiqing, you are the direct head of the Kong family, and you are the current patriarch of the Kong family in the world. Even the Meng family will give you money." face."

"You can't do it?"

"I'm afraid you're not trying to push the envelope!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to give them the opportunity to recommend Ye Qing because he didn't want Ye Qing to go against the Confucius and Mencius family, a thousand-year-old family.

In his opinion, no matter how powerful Ye Qing is, he can't deal with these people who talk about benevolence, justice and morality, and are the role models of scholars in the world.

Kong Kebiao said seriously: "Your Majesty, these two new tax policies are tantamount to poaching their hearts and minds!"

"People also say that cutting off someone's wealth is like killing one's parents. I really can't do it."

"I'm going to snatch food from their mouths. Can they agree?"

"As the saying goes, the first generation is close, the second generation is cousin, the third and fourth generation should not recognize each other."

"I am the fifty-fifth generation grandson of my ancestor Confucius, but we are already fifty-five generations apart. Can those people from the Confucius and Mencius families really recognize me?"

"If I don't take the food from their mouths, they might even give me some thin noodles because of my status as a Hanlin Academy scholar."

"But if you want to snatch food from their mouths, how can they accept it?"

"Your Majesty is wise, even if I kill you, I am really powerless!"

"." Zhu Yuanzhang really didn't want to hear any more.

He slapped the armrest of the dragon chair, stood up, and scolded severely: "What do you mean?"

"Are you saying that if you can't do it, I will kill you?"

"You are slandering me, you are saying that I am a tyrant!"

Kong Kebiao immediately grabbed the ground with his head: "Your Majesty, please calm down. This is not what I meant. Please punish me."

At the same time, he also thought to himself: "How far away from a tyrant can you be with your performance?"

And at this moment,

When Hu Weiyong saw that things were in place, he immediately knelt down in the tunnel and said, "Your Majesty, please calm down."

Immediately afterwards, another large group of people knelt down and agreed.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at this scene, not only did he not calm down, but he became even more angry, because this was a campaign to force the emperor to conceive from the commanding heights of morality.

But for the sake of the overall situation, he had no choice but to calm down.

If you don't calm down at this time, then these people will have to write!

Zhu Yuanzhang took a deep breath and calmed down, then sighed and said: "Let's all get back together!"

Then, he asked knowingly: "Tell me, who do you think is qualified?"

Kong Kebiao immediately spoke again: "Your Majesty, I think Ye Qing, the magistrate of Ningbo Prefecture, is the most suitable person."

"Master Ye developed Yanmen County into the southern part of the Yangtze River, recovered the national jade seal, and made great contributions to the attack and destruction of the capital city and Lin of the Northern Yuan Dynasty!"

"Not long ago, he used thunderous means to successfully complete disaster relief."

"Master Ye is such a genius, he will definitely be able to handle this job well!"

As soon as Kong Kebiao finished speaking, most of the civil and military people in the court agreed.

Judging from the scene in front of him, everyone was praising Ye Qing and talking about Ye Qing's achievements.

If I were to look at it from another person, I would definitely praise Ye Qing from the bottom of my heart and recommend Ye Qing reasonably.

But he knew deeply that they just wanted Ye Qing to make enemies of the Millennium Family and the Confucius and Mencius families!

It can also be said that we are using these two thousand-year-old families to avenge them!

As long as Ye Qing can't do his errands, he will fall as high as he stands!

At that time, these people who praise Ye Qing from the bottom of their hearts will directly turn into people who despise Ye Qing from the bottom of their hearts!

Now Zhu Yuanzhang just wants someone to stand up and say, "Ye Qing is not suitable for this job."

But when he looked at the people headed by Xu Da, he found that they and Xu Da had the same virtue, which was to simply stand there and close their eyes and act like blind men.

Looking at this scene, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but start to wonder whether Xu Da was Ye Qing's fake brother, or whether he was Zhu Yuanzhang's fake brother.

But their friendship for so many years was not just blown away.

Obviously, Xu Da must have his reasons for doing this!

"Could it be,"

"Xu Tiande, do you think it's okay for Ye Qing to do this?"

"."

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately said loudly: "Quickly play, withdraw from the court."

Before the officials could pay their respects again, he and his regular eunuch left the hall through a special passage.

But at the same time, he said to the eunuch Chang Shi: "Go halfway, stop Xu Da, Li Wenzhong, and Wang Baobao, and ask them to come to the imperial study to meet us."

The eunuch who often serves him bows and goes to work quickly.

At the same time, Wang Baobao and others who were walking on the road to the next court also asked Xu Da.

Wang Baobao said seriously: "Xu Da, if you don't explain this matter clearly, I will never be done with you."

Li Wenzhong said politely: "Xu Shuai, do you think Brother Ye can handle this job?"

"Of course, if he can complete this task, it will definitely be a fatal blow to them, and it will be a miracle for himself!"

Lan Yu also snorted and said: "Not only that, those guys who talk about benevolence, justice and morality will also restrain themselves a lot."

As soon as Lan Yu finished speaking, the generals also nodded.

Xu Da was not in a hurry to answer their questions, but looked at Wang Baobao and said with a smile: "I won't make it clear. Why do you want to end it with me?"

"you"

Wang Baobao has been angry with you for a long time, but you still can't figure out why.

Yes,

In the Ming Dynasty's palace, he had no qualifications to say this.

Xu Da also knew that Wang Baobao was anxious for Ye Qing, but he still educated him: "After you became an official in the court, you looked less and less like a marshal."

"Where is the 'most amazing man in the world' who used to strategize and actually beat me once?"

At this moment, Li Wenzhong and the others looked at Xu Da and wanted to slap Xu Da in the face.

That's 'your ability to sell things off is becoming less and less like a marshal'!

Just when everyone was about to lose their patience, Xu Da said with a serious face: "Ye Qing can do this."

"As long as we are willing to help him, he will definitely be able to accomplish this."

"They are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and we can also tell them that 'when a scholar encounters a soldier, he cannot explain why he is right'."

"Don't forget, soldiers can sometimes be a bit rogue!"

When everyone heard this, their eyes immediately lit up.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's regular eunuch came to Xu Da with silent steps.

"This servant pays homage to Commander Xu and all the generals."

"Shuai Xu, General Li, General Wang, Your Majesty wants you to meet him in the imperial study."

Xu Da didn't ask any more questions, just nodded, and asked Li Wenzhong and Wang Baobao to follow him all the way to the imperial study.

After arriving at the Imperial Study Room, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't say any nonsense, and directly asked him why he wanted this group of old brothers to be blind with him.

There was no nonsense in Xu Da's answer. It was also the same saying, "It's reasonable to let them encounter soldiers, but they can't explain it", and there was also the saying, "Soldiers can sometimes be robbers"!

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes immediately lit up.

Yup!

The Confucius and Mencius families have benevolence and morality, but they have soldiers in their hands!

As long as Ye Qing asks Xu Da for help, this matter will definitely be done!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang finally had a smile on his lips.

He immediately decided to treat the three of them to dinner generously.

Of course, Xu Da had such a good idea and he had to be rewarded with a roast goose cooked by Queen Ma.

When Xu Da heard about the roast goose that he had been thinking about, he immediately smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, as long as Ye Qing speaks to me, this job can be done."

Early the next morning,

At the same time as the morning court began, the team that went to Ningbo Mansion to declare the decree also embarked on the official road to Ningbo Mansion! .
