The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 405 Master Ye successfully converted his merits into crimes, but Zhu Yuanzhang’s education was hindered. These two idiots live up to their names!
After ordering the soldiers to leave, Zhu Yuanzhang and others just looked at each other and nodded silently.

They were not surprised by Ye Qing's order.

Because they had already guessed Ye Qing's reason for doing this, it could also be said that if it were them, they would do the same.

The reason why they nodded was because Ye Qing was very decisive in doing things. As soon as he solved the Ryukyu matter, he immediately took over the Japanese matter.

Just their enthusiasm for doing things is enough to praise them.

But they didn't know that the reason why Ye Qing was so non-stop was not to be loyal to the emperor.

He just wanted to finish the matter early and go back early to tell Zhu Yuanzhang that he had just declared the Japanese country as a "country that has not been conquered". Ye Qing, under the banner of Zhu Yuanzhang, turned the Japanese country into a "country that has been conquered". information.

Not only that, he also wanted to tell Zhu Yuanzhang some news!
That is, the reason why he received the news so late was that his informant, Mr. Guo, had been captured by him and used as free labor!

Thinking of this, Ye Qing quickly entered the palace of the king in the north of the mountain.

Letting this place be used as the "Marshal's Mansion for Conquering Japan" is a bit bad, but it's better than nothing.

At this moment, Zhu Di, who was confused, came over and asked: "Master, after we settle down, can't we just fight?"

"Why do you want their envoys to come here to see you?"

"Isn't this a waste of time?"

Ye Qing did not answer Zhu Di's words, because in his opinion, his apprentice's father could answer this question.

After all, Master Guo was once the emperor's personal soldier!
Ye Qing patted Zhu Di on the shoulder and said, "Boy, don't always ask me about everything. Your father is not bad either."

"You have to remember that your parents are the most important mentors in your life!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked in front of him and patted his son's shoulder. Ye Qing, who was patient and serious, was suddenly shocked.

Not to mention his ability as a master, the principles he taught his disciples were enough to prove that he, Ye Qing, was worthy of the word "being a role model".

At the very least, it is better than the old masters in his main hall who have never been taught this sentence!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang had another greedy idea!

"How can you, with such a great talent, only be the master of my fourth child?"

"We have so many sons and daughters, we can fill two classrooms for you!"

"."

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Di again, showing a 'fatherly smile' that he was not used to.

Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly to Zhu Di: "Your master has two purposes for doing this!"

"First of all, he wanted to show off his strength and let the envoys from the two countries ride on his own ship and pass between his fleet."

"That kind of powerful suppression will make the envoys go back and spread fear to every part of their army!"

"This second step is to compete for the right to be the head coach!"

"If our guess is correct, the two dynasties of Japan and South Korea decided to make their generals their commanders."

"After all, we are all thugs paid by others to beat each other!"

"As long as we tell them that your master Ye Qing is here, they will definitely send their strongest generals over to compete for the right to be the leader!"

"At that point, we just have to beat them at their best and strike fear into the hearts of their coaches."

"At that time, no matter who meets you two uncles, they will think that they lost the first battle on the island!"

"As the art of war goes, whoever loses momentum first has already lost half the battle!"

"."

After Zhu Yuanzhang finished these words, Xu Da and Wang Baobao also nodded.

I have to say that 'Marshal Zhu's' military skills have not been completely forgotten, and his analysis is quite correct!

Then, Ye Qing continued to smile and said: "Your father is right."

But then, Ye Qing felt something was wrong again.

Logically speaking, if his son has such a father, how could he behave like this?
Ye Qing was puzzled: "Your father is the best master, why didn't you learn from him?"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately started to say how disobedient this child was.

When Zhu Di saw that his father was always saying that he was naughty and mischievous, he was not happy about it either.

Zhu Di said loudly: "Have you taught me?"

"Since I was little, you haven't spent as much time with me as my elder brother!"

"As soon as you find something wrong with me, you will beat me to death. Besides beating your son, what else can you do?"

Having said this, Zhu Di subconsciously took three steps back, keeping a considerable safe distance from Zhu Yuanzhang.

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that his son dared to say that to him, he was furious, and habitually spanked him with the sole of his shoe.

But now that Zhu Di has Ye Qing's support, he has become a child who is not afraid of his father!
Ye Qing stood in front of Zhu Di and said, "By beating my apprentice in front of me, aren't you somewhat disrespecting me?"

Zhu Yuanzhang held up his shoes and said, "If we beat our son, what does it have to do with you?"

Ye Qing just waved to his tall soldiers and said with a faint smile: "If you want to beat your son, go home and beat him, not in front of me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, four soldiers stood in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, shaking their powerful chest muscles, and said one after another: "General Guo, put on your shoes."

"It's so smelly, why do you have the nerve to take off your shoes?"

"."

Zhu Yuanzhang, in line with the principle that a good man never suffers immediate losses, swallowed his breath and put on his shoes at once.

But the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhu Di was still full of anger.

Although Zhu Di was hiding behind Ye Qing and had a temper to quarrel with Zhu Yuanzhang, his fear of his father was ingrained in his bones and could not be changed no matter what.

Ye Qing slapped Zhu Di on the forehead and said, "Why don't you shake your ass while I'm here?"

"Don't say that your father is just a wealthy businessman. Even if he is the emperor, I would not dare to beat my apprentice without my consent."

As soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, Xu Da frowned helplessly.

Because he knew that his brother, the emperor, would start to hold grudges again!

Xu Da's guess was good. Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Qing and said to himself: "Okay, there will be a day when we will stare at you with wide eyes and see if you dare to protect your apprentice in front of the emperor."

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was thinking like this, Ye Qing called the soldiers to retreat, and then put his arm around Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulders.

Ye Qing said earnestly: "Lao Guo, isn't this how you teach children?"

"You said you are such a big military teacher here, why doesn't your child learn from you?"

"It's because you don't know how to teach children!"

"No wonder, you are hanging out with Zhu Yuanzhang, no, you are hanging out with His Majesty the Emperor, who can do nothing but stare and scold."

"As the saying goes, learn from good people to learn from good people, and from bad people to learn from bad people!"

"You follow His Majesty, but you can't learn everything!"

"No, I have learned that my son will not only be afraid of you, but he will also be afraid of you!"

"."

Xu Da and Wang Baobao on the side looked at Ye Qing's sincere words and unconsciously pressed their foreheads.

Headache! That’s quite a headache!

In this way, on the day when Ye Qing took over the main island of Ryukyu and made great achievements, he successfully made Zhu Yuanzhang take his revenge.

Two days later, the envoy sent by Ye Qing, a clever General Qianhu, and a hundred soldiers landed at Nara Pier.

On the Nara Pier, the general named Liu said to the sailors on the ship: "Wait for us here."

As soon as he finished speaking, he carried the invitation written by Ye Qing on his back and headed towards Nara's Nanchao Palace.

They wore the Ming Dynasty's navy's standard riveted armor and held swords, which can be said to be very eye-catching.

At the same time, General Liu and the others are also looking at everything here!
They looked at the scene in front of them, which was enough to prove that the Japanese were students of the Tang Dynasty. It was not difficult to see that their architectural style and clothing were quite Tang style.

But they have made some so-called improvements for the so-called 'own national characteristics'.

But in the eyes of General Liu and the others, it was all changed into four different shapes!
These women imitated the makeup of women from the Tang Dynasty, and ended up turning into white-faced female ghosts!

Looking at these white-faced female ghosts, he realized that Ningbo's "Japanese Girl Club" had actually undergone some improvements.

The reason why the Japanese women in the Japanese women's club maintain the characteristics of Japanese women is purely to satisfy the curiosity of customers.

But if there is no improvement at all and they are all copied directly, no one will be able to attack these century-old female ghosts!

"This is the result of blindly changing your skills without being good at it!"

"You are not good at studying and you still want to deceive your master and destroy your ancestors?"

"Don't worry, they have no chance!"

"."

Located at the gate of the Japanese Imperial Palace of the Southern Dynasties in Nara Prefecture, General Liu put away the murderous intent in his eyes as soon as he finished speaking.

Immediately afterwards, he took out Ye Qing's invitation and said: "Tell your Queen Kameyama Ghost Emperor that our navy, which will help you fight against the Northern Dynasty, has entered the Ryukyu Mountain Northern Kingdom."

"Let him send envoys over quickly to discuss the matter of starting a war!"

This palace is said to be a palace, but in fact it is about the same size as the palace of Zhu Yuanzhang's son.

There are not so many notification procedures on the palace wall, just the notification by the gatekeeper is enough!
Soon, a short, fat man with a melon-cut hair and a mustache came to the gate surrounded by people from behind.

This short, fat man was the Ghost Emperor Houguishan of the Southern Dynasty of Japan.

Hou Guishan Ghost Emperor took the invitation and said, "Master Ye is finally here, okay, great."

"Envoy, please come inside!"

General Liu looked at the short winter melon and really had no motivation to eat with him.

Therefore, he sternly refused and said: "No, we have to go back to do business."

"turn back!"

At General Liu's order, the hundred soldiers he had brought to support the scene all turned back.

In the eyes of Hou Guishan Ghost Emperor, under the leadership of General Liu, they strode away with neat steps and heads held high.

Hou Guishan Ghost Emperor looked at these uniform 'giants' with extremely penetrating eyes.

"Look at me, this is what a soldier should look like!"

"Today, in order to ask them to help us deal with the Northern Dynasty, we can bend our knees and offer many benefits!"

"But tomorrow, we must surpass them, enslave them, and become giants in their eyes!"

"Pass on my order to ask General Chiba to go to Ryukyu and meet with Mr. Ye, so that he must take over the leadership of this Northern Expedition!"

"."

Early the next morning, General Liu came to the capital of the Japanese Northern Dynasties, which was Kyoto Prefecture (Ping'an Jing)!
As a city known as "Little Chang'an" in the Japanese country, Heianjing does have some Chang'an style in it.

The layout of Chang'an's city and city, the layout of Chang'an's north and south cities, and the palace facing north and south can all be seen here.

It's just that both the size and the majesty of the buildings are far less than that of Chang'an City!

But General Liu looked at the scene in front of him and still felt the potential threat of Japan.

General Liu frowned and said, "One thing, we lost!"

The soldier next to him asked in confusion: "Where did we lose?"

General Liu still said seriously: "This Ping An Jing was built during the reign of Emperor Dezong of the Tang Dynasty (794 AD) by the Japanese country who learned the architectural form and urban layout of Chang'an and Luoyang. It took more than ten years!"

"It's been almost six hundred years since now!"

"In the past six hundred years, our dynasties have changed and our dynasties have risen and fallen. We often fight with our own people and destroy our own cities."

“We keep destroying and building again, and we keep repeating this thing, so that there are not many ancient buildings left!”

"The style of Chang'an in the past can only be appreciated in ancient books!"

"Look at them, they have had dynasties change and have been at war for a long time, but how much has this six-hundred-year-old Heian Jing been destroyed?"

"Not much has been destroyed!"

"They cherish the inheritance that their ancestors managed to steal, and even fight to protect it as much as possible!"

"."

As soon as General Liu finished speaking, the soldiers also fell into deep thought.

At the same time, they looked at the Imperial Palace of the Northern Dynasty with murderous intent even stronger than when they looked at Nara, the capital of the Southern Dynasty.

Soon, they met the Ghost Emperor Houxiaosong of the Northern Dynasty.

Unlike the Ghost Emperor Houguishan of the Southern Dynasties, he was short and thin, and his mustache looked even more obvious on his thin face.

After the notification was in place, General Liu decisively rejected his request.

They also took uniform steps and decisively turned back.

"Tell me, do these two Ghost Emperors live up to their names?"

"That is, if it looks like a turtle, it will be called the Houguishan Ghost Emperor, and if it looks like a squirrel, it will be called the Houxiaosong Ghost Emperor?"

"Don't tell me, it's so damn similar!"

"."

General Liu immediately said seriously: "Where are the queues, don't talk, pay attention to the appearance of the Chinese army!"

And at this moment,
The Ghost Emperor Houxiaosong of the Northern Dynasty looked at them going away, frowning and said: "Pass on my decree,"

"Let General Ashikaga take General Yagyu to see this Lord Ye."

"Remember, you must win the right to be the head coach!"

"."

The day after General Liu and the others left, the envoys from the Northern and Southern Dynasties of Japan boarded ships at their ports.

The Kyoto port of the Northern Dynasties faced north. If they wanted to come to Ryukyu, they would have to make a long circle, almost half of the Japanese country.

The Nara Port of the Southern Dynasties faces south, and they can drift directly over with the southwest wind.

Therefore, the Southern Dynasty’s mission was the first to see Ye Qing’s fleet!
