Ming Dynasty: He was ordered to give lectures in prison, but Lao Zhu eavesdropped and made people nu

Chapter 493 Swaggering through the market
"Don't keep kneeling!"

Zhu Yuanzhang pulled Chen Hu up again and asked, "Did you get the injury on your arm when you hit the fire ship?"

Originally, this was just a question Zhu Yuanzhang asked to win over people's hearts.

However, Chen Hu's answer made the smile on his face suddenly turn into a cloud.

I heard Chen Hu shake his head: "If you avoid it, I will hit the Japanese slave fire ship. In addition to the damage to the bow of the treasure ship, the soldiers will not suffer any damage."

"However, when I transferred to a new warship and was about to return to the mainland, I encountered a Japanese slave ship on the sea."

"Although there are many people on the other side, fortunately, Lang Zhen is still in good condition on the boat. I and others only suffered minor injuries."

"If it hadn't been for these Japanese slaves taking advantage of my boat to turn around and hit a big hole in the side of the boat, none of them would have been able to escape."

Thanks to Chen Hu's good luck, the bow of the boat the Japanese slaves used to hit them was relatively high.

It just made a hole near the deck.

Otherwise, all the advance soldiers on the ship might have to feed the fish at the bottom of the sea.

"What a Japanese slave. There is a war in the house, and yet you dare to come and plunder my Ming Dynasty."

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted heavily, but turned around and glanced around at the officials gathered on the beach.

Some of the courtiers who had ulterior motives couldn't help but shrink their necks subconsciously when they heard Zhu Yuanzhang's pointed words.

Zhu Yuanzhang already had countermeasures to deal with these guys who were cheating on others.

So I didn't pay attention to those guilty-minded people who didn't bring it upon themselves.

He also praised Chen Hu and the other returning advance soldiers.

Then he called the captain and asked them to carry three boxes of gold and walk towards the imperial city as if they were walking through the market.

As for the advance soldiers, Zhu Yuanzhang arranged for them to be treated in Tai Hospital, and they would be sent there after receiving awards.

Chen Hu was naturally very grateful for this.

However, some of the imperial doctors who had heard of it were not as good as the doctors of the quacks in their treatment methods.

But they were reluctant to let those quack doctors help them heal their injuries.

They all found excuses to ask Chen Hu for leave and went to find a doctor they knew well.

And the people still gathered around the pier to watch the excitement.

Seeing the captain carrying the gold, he couldn't help but whisper for a while.

"Haven't all the goods brought back by Mr. Tang Guo just been transported away? Where did this gold come from?"

"Didn't you see that broken ship? The gold was all moved from the ship."

"Hey, I think I've seen this boat before. Isn't this the boat that used to hold bamboos and annihilate the Japanese army in Yingtian? Why has it become so shabby?"

"Could it be that those military lords went to the Japanese country to rob Japanese slaves? This gold is the spoils of war?"

Because Hu Yunqiang defeated the many with less and wiped out more than 2,000 Japanese pirates, the battle was really beautiful.

In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang took all the captured Japanese pirates to Yingtian and beheaded them, which made many people living near the dock recall the flag of the advance army fleet.

At this time, I heard someone say that the troops holding bamboos had probably gone to the Japanese country.

Immediately, some people asked excitedly: "Are you telling the truth? Ming Dynasty finally took the initiative to deal with those Japanese slaves?"

Many people who had suffered harm from Japanese pirates also looked expectantly at the dock residents who had just spoken.

However, this person was just guessing at random, so he didn't know what the advance army was doing.

But at this time, it would be too embarrassing to admit that you were talking nonsense.

So this person boasted: "Of course, our Ming Dynasty can even drive the arrogant Bei Yuan back to the grassland." "The Japanese slaves are just clowns. If our Ming army has free hands, we can drive them back to the grassland." Knead him to death!"

Even if the dock residents say that the Ming Dynasty has begun to attack the Japanese slaves, there is no evidence.

However, the people watching could not help but cheer.

Many of them have heard rumors about Japanese slaves being tyrannical in the Ming Dynasty.

Even some of the people's relatives died under the sword of the Japanese slaves.

Although they were not sure whether the news was true or false, they heard someone say that Ming Dynasty finally avenged the people who died tragically at the hands of Japanese pirates.

Everyone couldn't help but kneel down and shout three times long live Zhu Yuanzhang's retreat.

A red-robed official who deliberately walked at the end heard the people's casual speculations.

He couldn't help but snorted: "They are all unruly people. Don't you know that once the war breaks out, your Majesty will raise taxes? You won't be the ones who suffer then?"

"Moreover, the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty have not been dealt with yet, and His Majesty is using troops against the Japanese slaves. It is really foolish..."

Before the red-robed official could finish complaining, a green-robed official next to him covered his mouth.

The man looked around and found that no one heard the red-robed official's words, and he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

Then he persuaded: "Now there are school captains everywhere on the dock. Please be careful what you say, brother."

"Now that Duke Xin Guo has returned, the Ming Dynasty no longer lacks ships to expedition to Japan."

"Brother, instead of wasting time complaining, you should think about how to destroy the evidence of trade with the Japanese country and deal with those Japanese slaves."

The green-robed officials always spoke from the bottom of their hearts, thinking about their family.

however.

The red-robed official felt that he was being humiliated by the green-robed official, and snorted again, "I am the head of the family now, and I have my own thoughts on how to do things, and it is not your turn to butt in."

The green-robed official couldn't help but lament after hearing this, but he had no intention of speaking anymore.

……

"You said that the people actually guessed that we were going to attack the Japanese country while chatting?"

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting in the imperial palace, was reading the secret letters brought back by Chen Hu and written by Hu Yunqiang and Vice General Liu.

Suddenly hearing what Mao Xiang hurried over to report, he couldn't help but reveal a playful smile.

Mao Xiang, who was trotting along outside Yushu, replied honestly: "Your Majesty, those people should have seen the flag that was hung on the ship when Hu Yunqiang set out for the expedition."

"That's why I unexpectedly guessed that when the advance army went to Japan, the gold and silver were regarded as the seizures of my Ming Dynasty."

"Your Majesty, do you want to warn them not to talk nonsense? So as not to ruin your plan?"

Zhu Yuanzhang categorically rejected Mao Xiang's suggestion.

He warned seriously: "Let the people decide this matter. If you dare to do anything behind our back, don't come to see us again."

Since the Japanese court has sent troops to Tsushima Island.

There is no point in covering up the advance army's expedition to Japan.

Anyway, the Ming Dynasty will officially send a large army to Japan soon.

If this matter spreads out in advance, it can actually boost the morale of the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.

Mao Xiang was so frightened by Zhu Yuanzhang's heart-breaking words that he fell to his knees.

He was frightened and said: "Your Majesty, you have officially betrayed me. How can I dare to do things I shouldn't do behind your back?"
