The First Corrupt Official of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 66 Zhu Yuanzhang Goes to Mining, Empress Ma Becomes the Factory Director (seeking more updates)
The prison guards quickly assigned the reform-through-labour tasks for all the reform-through-labor prisoners.

Queen Ma is still so eye-catching!
She was the only female prisoner in the Yanmen Dalong Men's Prison, and the only one who had a luxurious breakfast but was sent to a women's labor reform workshop.

Many things that violated the rules were all concentrated on her alone.

In this men's prison where it is rare for sows to pass by, there is such a woman who still looks charming and has many 'privileges', how can she not be the existence that attracts everyone's attention.

It was after everyone watched Empress Ma leave in amazement that they were taken to their respective places of labor reform by the jailers in charge of escorting them.

As for the many privileges of Empress Ma, Zhu Yuanzhang, Mao Xiang and the dozen or so guards were not surprised at all.

They all know that this is what Ye Qing did on purpose.

During the labor reform during the day, she and Zhu Yuanzhang were separated, just to observe and contact alone, so as to achieve the purpose of screening as soon as possible.

As for keeping them together at night, it should be because the wall has ears.

Although they are not sure whether there are ears in the wall every night, they are all on guard as if there are ears in the wall.

In a word, Ye Qing wants to use this method to determine whether they are really Beiyuan spies as soon as possible, so they will use their tricks to separately investigate whether Ye Qing is really "greedy for the people" or whether he is greedy for the people on the surface , secretly accumulating strength for the rebellion.

But judging from what we have seen and heard so far, we are still not completely sure.

He, Zhu Yuanzhang, thought that he could continue to build roads today, and then he entered the garrison pass to investigate and collect evidence.

But I never expected that today I suddenly changed to mining!

But he will not take the initiative to ask Ying to build the road as planned last night, he will willingly go to mine.

Just because what they are going to dig is iron ore that represents weapons and armor!

As long as he is allowed to transport the excavated iron ore to the place where weapons are manufactured privately, then Ye Qing's charges can be confirmed.

At that time, he will have his own way to prove that he is the current emperor Zhu Yuanzhang.

But at this very moment,

Zhu Yuanzhang thought of another very contradictory question.

"If he, Ye Qing, secretly opened mines and made weapons to rebel, why did he take the opportunity of completing the self-evaluation to write such a self-report letter that almost made us die?"

"Is he crazy or stupid?"

"If we were him, we wouldn't belittle ourselves, and we wouldn't praise ourselves too much. We would just write a self-evaluation in a well-regulated manner, so as not to be dismissed and go home, and not to continue to be promoted."

"Only if you are re-elected, can you get another three years of preparation time!"

"."

Thinking of this extremely arrogant self-report letter, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that his analysis based on his current knowledge was completely wrong.

All fools know that they should continue to seek stability in order to have more time to prepare, not to mention Master Ye who turned the impoverished Yanmen County into a land of abundance in three years.

This is the same as what he pursued when he rebelled, and Zhu Sheng, a counselor in Huizhou, proposed to him to "build high walls, accumulate food widely, and slowly become king".

He doesn't believe in Ye Qing who has such a talent, he doesn't understand this truth.

Thinking of this, no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang thought, he couldn't understand Ye Qing's purpose.

"Number 88, do you want to delay time on purpose, or do you want to lag behind and escape on purpose, walking so slowly?"

"I warn you both, don't make such crooked ideas!"

At this moment, the jailer in charge of adjourning, seeing Zhu Yuanzhang and Mao Xiang walking slower and slower, immediately sternly reprimanded them.

Where has Mao Xiang been wronged like this?

He has always been the one who warns others, and he has never been warned by others. For him, this is really the first time for a big girl to get on a sedan chair!
Just when Mao Xiang was about to step forward to reason, Zhu Yuanzhang grabbed his hand.

Immediately afterwards, he smiled at the prison guard pretending to be an agent: "I don't want to escape, I'm just intoxicated by the roadside scenery."

"."

After finding a reason at random, Zhu Yuanzhang took the lead in following.

At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang also decided not to think about this unreasonable problem for the time being, because seeing is believing in the end.

Still the same sentence, as long as he is asked to transport the iron ore to a place where weapons are privately manufactured, then there is no need to think about anything, just prove his identity and convict Ye Qing!
At this very moment,
Mao Xiang, who was following behind, looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's back actively moving forward, but his eyes were full of the words "admiration".

Yes,

Zhu Yuanzhang was wronged every day when he was a child, even when he was a monk, he was wronged.

But he has been the emperor for six years, and he has become the Ninth Five-Year King with more than ten million people!
Let a poor man continue to be poor, and he can survive.

But if a poor man who has become a rich man suddenly goes back to live a poor life, he may not be able to survive!

But Zhu Yuanzhang, who has been the emperor for six years, can still continue to be wronged for the goal in his heart. Based on this alone, he deserves to be the emperor who "starts with a bowl and ends with a country".

At this moment, two Zhu Yuanzhangs appeared in Mao Xiang's mind!
Wearing a dragon robe in the palace, Zhu Yuanzhang fights all Huaixi dignitaries out of his wits. Sometimes he smiles and salutes corporals, and sometimes bursts into thunderous anger. He always makes people feel that he is moody and difficult to get close to.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang here has really achieved "emotions and anger are not visible", and even "the heart has waves, but the face is like a mirror"!
Thinking of this, Mao Xiang immediately remembered a sentence that Zhu Yuanzhang warned him.

"Whatever clothes you wear, do what you do!"

After Mao Xiang silently read Zhu Yuanzhang's warning, there was a light smile of relief on the corner of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, he immediately caught up with Zhu Yuanzhang, and actively followed the felony reform-through-labor brigade to dig mines!
At this very moment,
Empress Ma has also been sent to the women's labor reform workshop and handed over to the female foreman.

It's just that compared to yesterday, the attitude of the female foreman has changed dramatically.

"Sister Ma, why did you come here!"

"Hurry up and come with me, everyone is waiting for you!"

After saying a few words, the female foreman, who was looking up at people yesterday, led Empress Ma and passed the guard.

With this attitude, it looks like a student welcoming the teacher!
In the tailor-made clothing workshop, Empress Ma and these girls who were not guilty themselves but were implicated by crimes quickly became friends.

The girls asked her how to improve their embroidery skills, and she also humbly asked the girls about the craftsmanship here.

The kind of big sister temperament that makes people want to get close to her just by looking at her, directly made her the most popular person here!
at the same time,

Located in the exclusive mansion in the back of the county government, Ye Qing also finished his breakfast, but just as the servant girl took the bowls and chopsticks away, the county magistrate Wu Yong ran over:
"grown ups,"

"Should we go to see the woman's embroidery first, or the man's mining first?".
