Ming Dynasty: The ghost betrays the Confucian sage, my son Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 3: Once he comes, let him be safe and bury him well.

"I am now the leader of the Beggar Clan. I destroyed the Nu Jiao Clan just two days ago."

Fourth Master Zhu slowly drank a glass of wine and sighed, "At this age, I have no way to go to the government, so I can only fool around."

Zhu Yuanzhang: "!!!"

Becoming a gang leader just by messing around? Why didn't we have such a good thing when we were begging?

He remembered the day when Fourth Master Zhu beheaded someone in the street.

Later, Jinyiwei investigated and determined that the strong man who was chopped down was Lang Feiyun, the leader of the Nujiao Gang.

The Nu Jiao Gang is the last of the eight major dark forces in the capital, but its strength cannot be underestimated, and it was actually annexed by the Beggar Gang.

Mao Xiang, commander of the Jin Yiwei, analyzed that the Beggars Gang had annexed the Nu Jiao Gang and became one of the eight dark forces in the capital.

The Ming Dynasty was established at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty.

The capital city can be described as a mixed bag of fish and dragons, with undercurrents surging.

In this bustling capital, there are the Yulong Gang, the Yan Gang, Tanma Junsi, the Mingjiao Gang, the Liang Gang, the Feiyan Tower, the Qianjin Terrace, and the Nujiao Gang.
Eight dark forces.

Behind these eight secret forces, there are Chen Youliang and Zhang Shicheng's remnant party, Bei Yuan's Tan Ma Army Division, Yunnan Liang Wang, and Shu Ming Yuzhen's secret spies.

Don't underestimate the eight dark forces. The brothels, gambling houses, escort agencies, smuggling and other industries they control have huge profits. Moreover, they secretly collude with officials from the DPRK and China, making the situation in the capital even more complicated.

Zhu Yuanzhang originally wanted to go on a killing spree, but since the founding of the country, many people had been recruited and surrendered. If he killed indiscriminately at this time, he would probably panic people.

What's more, the eight dark forces are intricate and intertwined in this capital, and one move can affect the whole body.

"By the way, Balang, which yamen are you working as an official in?" Fourth Master Zhu raised his eyebrows, "Maybe, we can have some collusion between officials and gangsters?"

Zhu Yuanzhang held his forehead and smiled: "I am in the Governor's Mansion, which is a seventh-grade governor."

At this moment, Fourth Master Zhu suddenly stood up.

……

Whoosh!Whoosh!
Two strong men jumped in from outside the courtyard wall, both holding knives in their hands.

"Are you Fourth Master Zhu?" The scarred man in the lead smiled coldly, "I've been asked to send you on your way."

"Who gave you the courage?" Fourth Master Zhu asked with interest.

His big hand pulled Zhu Yuanzhang behind him.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a sense of being protected, which was a bit strange. He looked around, looking for a weapon to help.

Fourth Master Zhu rolled up his sleeves and walked straight towards the two strong men.

"Old man, you are seeking death!" The scarred man rushed towards Fourth Master Zhu with a knife.

A sneer appeared at the corner of Fourth Master Zhu's lips. He moved and flashed past like a ghost, arriving first and last.

He was tall and burly, and in the blink of an eye he was in front of the scarred man, grabbed his neck, lifted him up, and smashed him down hard.

This series of actions was completed in one go.

Bang!

The scarred man was hit hard on the ground and blood spurted out on the spot.

"Tell me, who asked you to come?" Fourth Master Zhu asked coldly.

"Go to hell!" The scarred man was also brave.

He reached out to grab Fourth Master Zhu's neck, but Fourth Master Zhu's hand clasped his neck hard.

Click!

The scarred man's neck was directly broken.

All this happened so quickly that Zhu Yuanzhang, who had always been decisive in killing, felt chills running down his back.

Before the other man could react, he was about to rush forward with a knife. At this moment, he immediately turned around and ran away.

Swish!
Fourth Master Zhu ducked in front of him.

The man knelt down and kowtowed quickly: "Fourth Master, please spare your life, please spare my life. I said it was Gang Leader Zhang of the Yulong Gang who asked us to kill you. If you die, he can annex the territory of the Nu Jiao Gang." "It turns out. It’s the Ichthyosaurus Gang.”

With a smile on his face, Fourth Master Zhu reached out and picked up the knife on the ground, "Brother, when you come, make peace with it."

As soon as he finished speaking, the knife penetrated the man's chest.

……

Standing in the corridor, Zhu Yuanzhang was secretly shocked. This old man killed people so neatly.

He could probably guess what Fourth Master Zhu was thinking.

The Beggar Gang has no backing. As the gang leader, he needs to be ruthless if he wants to gain a foothold among the dark forces in the capital.

This is to tell everyone that he is not someone to be trifled with.

"Eight Lang, come and help." Fourth Master Zhu waved towards Zhu Yuanzhang, "Since they are here, let them be in peace. Since they are here, I will bury them properly."

"Ah? Is this what you mean?" Zhu Yuanzhang raised his forehead, "You won't be buried in this yard, right?"

"How can that be done? It must be shipped out." Fourth Master Zhu glared.

He found a pallet truck and several large sacks.

The two put the body into a sack and pushed the cart out of the yard.

"Fourth Master, you don't want to leave the city just like that, do you?" Zhu Yuanzhang reminded, "The city gate guards will check."

"Are you underestimating our Beggar Clan?" Fourth Master Zhu said, "Our Beggar Clan is the weakest, but it is still very easy to dispose of corpses."

The two pushed the cart into an alley.

There were more than a dozen beggars sitting in the alley. When they saw Fourth Master Zhu, they quickly came up to pay homage: "See the gang leader."

"These two corpses should be buried somewhere." Fourth Master Zhu waved his hand.

"Yes." The beggars nodded.

They came up and pushed the cart away, moving very smoothly.

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, he was definitely a habitual offender.

Fourth Master Zhu patted his shoulder and spread his hands: "Balang, I have something else to do. I have to go to the Beggar Clan Headquarters. Let's continue drinking another day."

Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and nodded: "Fourth Master, it's time for me to go to the Governor's Mansion."

The two separated at the entrance of the alley.

After Zhu Yuanzhang walked for a while and entered another street, Mao Xiang, the commander of the Jinyiwei, followed him and said, "Your Majesty, I just saw the two killers climbing over the wall. One of them couldn't hold back and almost rushed into the yard."

"How could two thieves hurt us? You were right not to come in. Our identity cannot be exposed yet." Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, "I asked you to check the origins of Fourth Master Zhu. Is there any new information?"

"not yet."

Mao Xiang shook his head and frowned tightly, "He came to the capital a year ago and made good friends with the old leader of the Beggar Clan. After the old leader died, the position of leader of the Beggar Clan was passed to him."

"Since Fourth Master Zhu became the leader of the Beggar Gang, the Beggar Gang has undergone a huge change. It has begun to compete with some small dark forces for territory. Fourth Master Zhu is highly skilled in martial arts and ruthless, and the power of the Beggar Gang has greatly increased."

"After annexing the Nu Jiao Gang, the Beggar Gang has taken control of civilian shipping around the capital. It is very profitable."

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and ordered Mao Xiang to continue investigating.

He also told him that Jin Yiwei was secretly helping Fourth Master Zhu, because Fourth Master Zhu would definitely have to compete with the eight dark forces in the capital.

Although he is very strong, it is difficult for him to defeat four hands with two fists.

"Your Majesty, if Fourth Master Zhu can carve out a bloody path among the dark forces, it will help us a lot." Mao Xiang spread his hands and smiled, "Nowadays, the capital is a mixed bag and undercurrents are surging. We Jinyiwei also need an external force to control the capital. This deep water is muddy.”

"You help him secretly, but you can't interfere with him." Zhu Yuanzhang said solemnly.

"According to the order." Mao Xiang nodded.

He became more and more curious as to why His Majesty cared so much about an old man.

Why did you spend so much effort to buy a yard next to the old man's yard and deliberately get close to Fourth Master Zhu?
