The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 42 Lord Ye and Empress Ma, let's do two tricks first!

Empress Ma, led by an ordinary jailer, came to a town outside the county seat.

A town full of industrial workshops, the official name of the town is Shangguan Town.

But next to the Shangguan town boundary tablet erected by the imperial court, there is a larger and more conspicuous stone tablet with an industrial style, on which there are six big characters [Shangguan Industrial Park].

Both sides of the avenue are full of orderly distribution of various workshops, which also produce civilian goods currently on the market.

It's just that these workshops are not like Ying Tianfu's workshops, which look very petty.

Although they are all folk workshops, they all have a certain scale and have their own gates and signboards.

Soon, they came to a place where the gate was listed as [Laogai Industrial Park].

People walking around inside, except for those wearing prisoner clothes, were also wearing jailer clothes, and even the guards were jailers.

She was the only person wearing Daming's ordinary clothes.

"Why is this town full of workshops?"

Empress Ma asked the jailer beside her.

Although the jailer next to him was not disguised as an agent, he also knew that the still charming middle-aged woman in front of him was a female spy who was under the special care of Master Ye!
He definitely wouldn't answer Queen Ma's question, but said seriously: "Just follow me, don't ask random questions."

Empress Ma didn't bother with him, she just nodded and followed him in.

In fact, even if she didn't ask, she could guess what was going on.

Apparently, this town where industrial development is concentrated was also created by him, Ye Qing.

Judging from what he has seen and heard along the way, Ye Qing is an official who knows how to plan and design.

When she first entered the county, she still felt a little strange!

China has a history of thousands of years, and there are many famous historical cities with rich heritage!
However, whether it is Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty, Lin'an City in the Song Dynasty, or Yingtian City in the Ming Dynasty, they are all planned and designed with residential areas, commercial areas, and industrial areas.

But in the county seat of Yanmen County, apart from residential areas and commercial areas, there is no workshop for manufacturing.

Thinking about it now, Ye Qing must have divided the entire Yanmen County into functional areas.

He built the county where the county government is located into a very livable and prosperous city.

The industrial manufacturing and agricultural production needed for business are all divided outside the county seat.

Thinking of this, Empress Ma's eyes immediately filled with anticipation!
She wanted to accompany Chongba from his family, and go to the county government office to see the "General Planning Plan of Yanmen County" drawn up by this worldly genius!
Empress Ma can be sure that those who can make this kind of planning and design must have a "General Planning Plan of Yanmen County" that expresses all the ideas in their minds!
They definitely don't have time to go to every corner of Yanmen County!
So,
Only by looking at this picture can one intuitively see what Ye Qing has done to the common people after being an official for three years!

Only after this picture makes Zhu Yuanzhang smile very satisfied, can he offset Ye Qing's guilt of making the founding emperor of Ming Dynasty reform through labor.

Although it is said that those who do not know are not guilty, it is an indisputable fact to offend the founding emperor.

Only those who are really talented in the world are worthy of Zhu Yuanzhang's saying, "Those who don't know are not guilty"!
Thinking of this, Empress Ma began to look around while walking.

She knew that Ye Qing would definitely come to find him alone!
In fact, when she was assigned the task of reforming through labor in the morning, she figured everything out.

Yes, they were indeed targeted.

And the person targeting them is precisely this person who is very concerned about anti-espionage subjects, Mr. Ye Qingye.

The person who arranged for them to go to that 'special cell' was Ye Qing, the so-called partition has ears, so it must be Ye Qing.

Fortunately, they kept their eyes open, and often whispered in their ears.

That is, when Mao Xiang became ruthless, his voice became louder!
But those few words of his exposed their escape plan!

Naturally, Ye Qing formulated this morning's reform-through-labour assignment for this plan of both inspection and running.

There is also a reason why he was sure that Ye Qing would come to her.

Ye Qing deliberately assigned her here alone, it must be to gain some useful information from her.

After all, she is now the 'only female spy'!
That's right, this is what Empress Ma analyzed, Ye Qing's 'Praying Mantis Catch the Cicada'!
But her 'The Oriole is Behind', took advantage of this opportunity to get in touch with Ye Qing, rationally resolved the misunderstanding, and restored their status as wealthy businessmen in the capital.

As for whether to resume contact with Ye Qing as a wealthy businessman in the capital, or directly reveal their identities, that will be discussed at that time.

But in general, she still wanted to save Ye Qing's life!
If the misunderstanding continues like this, and his family is forced to work hard and suffer a serious crime, then Ye Qing will have no choice but to die.

Empress Ma didn't want his family to suffer, nor did she want such a worldly genius to die of a 'misunderstanding'!
And it was only for the purpose of defending the country that the misunderstanding was caused!
Of course, she wanted to ask Ye Qing personally, what was his real purpose for writing his self-assessment as a death-seeking report letter, and whether it was as she expected.

Thinking of this, Empress Ma looked in the direction where she separated from Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Heavy eight!"

"I believe that you can understand my purpose for doing this."

"."

Empress Ma's eyes were full of confidence, because he knew Zhu Yuanzhang well enough.

And it turns out that Zhu Yuanzhang is just as she expected.

As long as her heavy starling doesn't get angry, he will be able to understand everything based on their years of tacit understanding and her eyes.

In fact, it is not difficult to figure out all this, what is needed is the word "careful".

It just so happens that Zhu Yuanzhang is such a person who is both rough and subtle. He not only figured everything out by himself, but also told Mao Xiang what is meant by "Ye Qing plays mantis and cicada to them, and Empress Ma plays Ye Qing with a trick of the oriole." !
In the corner of the women's labor reform workshop,
Ye Qing, who was dressed in ink and white, was watching Empress Ma from afar, accompanied by his assistant Xian Cheng.

"grown ups,"

"How does this woman arrange?"

Ye Qing just slightly raised the corner of his mouth and said, "What are we Han girls good at, and what are Northern Yuan barbarian girls good at?"

The county magistrate of Yanmen County is named Wu Yong, but it is definitely not Wu Yong from the Water Margin, everything is a coincidence.

But he is indeed worthy of the name, he is Ye Qing's right-hand man.

Wu Yong, who looks like a master, just rolled his eyes and said immediately: "Our Han women are good at weaving and embroidery, and the Northern Yuan barbarian women are good at riding horses and herding cattle."

"Of course, some barbarian women from the Northern Yuan Dynasty can weave and embroider, but they are not proficient in general."

Ye Qing nodded and said: "Then let her do embroidery first, the harder the better!".
