Daming: My boss Zhu Yuanzhang

Under Li Wei's instructions, an upsurge in ideological education soon set off in the army. Chen Shan, Ma Siliu and others explained Li Wei's ideas to the soldiers in detail, and received widespread recognition and support.

In addition to the military, the same is true among the people of Yangzhou. In the streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants, people are talking about these ideas that everyone is equal.

Under Li Wei's influence, officials of all sizes in Yangzhou, including Tian Qing, were forced to change their faces. They had to smile and look amiable when facing the people.

Ordinary people have never seen such officials. In the past, even if they were good officials and honest officials, they would look aloof and domineering, and those who were a little bit worse would show off their power. The so-called parents' official airs were extremely high.

But what's different now is that Li Wei has personally stepped down to help the people. Naturally, officials like them don't dare to do what they did before.

In a teahouse, Ma Liusi sat on a table in the center of the lobby, surrounded by many people.

"Teacher said, the people of the world are the most important, the country is the second most important, the ruler is the least, the rulers are all the less, and the officials are naturally more important. From now on, you don't have to be afraid of the officials. If they do something wrong, feel free to point it out. Anyone found to be bending the law for personal gain can report it directly to us, and we will definitely punish them severely! ”

Ma Liusi said loudly, and the people around him were full of smiles and immediately called for flowers.

The sloppy old man who stopped Yang Laosan was among the crowd. After the cheers subsided, he immediately took the opportunity to interject and asked: "Since ancient times, the king and his ministers have been father and son. The king is supreme and all the people are subordinate. What do you think? Turned upside down?"

Ma Liusi glanced at him, frowned slightly and said: "Those are all deceptive statements made by the powerful class. You don't even think about it, whose food they eat and whose clothes they wear are obviously the hard work of the people all over the world. They are raising them, providing them with food and clothing, so how can there be any reason to recognize them as parents?"

The people around him couldn't help but nod their heads after hearing this. They had never thought about it so much before. They only knew that officials were powerful and they had to obey. But when Ma Liusi said this, after thinking about it for a moment, it was indeed the case. They have worked so hard to provide food and supplies to support these emperors, nobles, princes and generals. Why should they let them ride on their heads and dominate them?
The sloppy old man looked at the reactions of the people around him and said with a smile: "You are right, I have learned a lesson!"

Seeing that he didn't continue to question, Ma Liusi smiled and continued talking.

While listening carefully, the sloppy old man also asked questions from time to time. After a conversation, he was not only surprised, but he also didn't expect that this ordinary old man had extraordinary knowledge. Although his words were quoted from classics, they were eclectic. He is also very receptive to these new claims he promotes.

He even felt that this ordinary old man was more knowledgeable than Fang Xiaoru, another teacher in the academy.

"I wonder what I call my father-in-law?" Ma Liusi asked, cupping his hands.

Now that Li Wei has established his own business, and when he is short of people, he can't help but think of recruiting talents for the teacher.

"Haha, this old man needs to think about it carefully. He has lived for a long time and can't even remember his name." The sloppy old man smiled softly and seemed to be deep in thought. After a while, he said: "I remember, the old man's surname is Zhang, single name. It’s the same character as Tong, and there are many other names, such as Quanyi, Junshi, etc. If you find it troublesome, just call me Zhang Slutty.”

Ma Liusi couldn't help but froze when he heard this, and smiled awkwardly: "Well, Mr. Zhang was joking."

Zhang Slutty smiled and didn't care at all about this derogatory name.

Ma Liusi added: "I think the old gentleman is a man of great talent. The tutor has always admired such a master as the old gentleman. I wonder if the old gentleman would like to have the younger generation introduce him to the tutor?"

When Zhang Suluo heard this, he immediately looked very interested and said, "That's a good relationship. I also want to meet your teacher."

Ma Liusi was interested in him, and he was even more interested in Ma Liusi's teacher. He was originally here for Li Wei.

Ma Liusi was also overjoyed when he saw this, and immediately stood up and said: "It's better to choose a day than to hit the sun. Why don't I take the old gentleman to see the next master now." "Okay, little brother will lead the way." Zhang Slutty immediately agreed. .

Ma Men nodded, apologized to the other people, and took him out of the teahouse.

In the Prince Consort's Mansion, Xie Feihu was reporting the latest news to Li Wei.

"Yesterday, news came from Shaofeng. He learned from the prince that His Majesty intends to move the capital, and his first choice is Xi'an." Xie Feihu said softly.

"Oh? Isn't Xi'an the fiefdom of King Qin? If the capital moves to Xi'an, where will King Qin go?" Li Wei asked in surprise.

Xie Feihu thought for a while and said: "It must be the case that the feudal clan must be moved."

The emperor wants to go to Xi'an, so the prince will naturally have to make room.

Li Wei's eyes moved slightly, and he vaguely remembered that there was a version that said that Zhu Biao went to Xi'an to inspect the capital move and died after returning. If Zhu Biao died like this, how would the current situation change?

Li Wei was silent and thought carefully for a long time.

If Zhu Biao dies, none of the princelings arranged for him by Zhu Yuanzhang will survive, including Lan Yu and even himself.

Of course, he has reached this point, and none of this matters anymore, but people like Lan Yu are a variable. If Zhu Biao dies, Zhu Yuanzhang will definitely put these newly-rising nobles and Li Shanchang, the old Huaixi people. Get rid of it together. Lan Yu now holds great power. If someone makes a fuss about this matter, he might be able to persuade him and people like Li Shanchang to join forces and start an army!
If that were the case, it might be a better outcome for him.

After all, semi-retired veterans like Lu Zhongheng alone may not be able to make any big waves. If Lan Yu is added to it, they may be able to achieve something.

Including the Yangzhou soldiers and horses he had just conquered, he now has less than 50,000 people in total, and the ammunition problem has not been solved. He must be cautious if he wants to influence the overall situation. If these nobles can fight to the death with Zhu Yuanzhang, he will You can reap the benefits of being a fisherman, and you can even seize the capital in one fell swoop!
Once the capital is captured, there will be a weapons bureau and various resources. It will be much easier to deal with the vassal kings of Qin, Jin and Yan who hold military power.

But, can Zhu Biao still be saved?

Li Wei was silent.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, and Ma Liusi walked in quickly.

"teacher!"

Ma Liusi first bowed to Li Wei and then said hello to Xie Feihu.

Li Wei came back to his senses and saw that his face was happy, so he smiled and asked, "What's the good thing?"

Ma Liusi smiled and said immediately: "Teacher, I met a strange man in the city. This man is not only proficient in the classics, but also agrees with our new ideas. I think it is the right time for us to hire people. So I brought him here to ask the teacher to see him." (End of Chapter)
