Zhu Yuanzhang hid his body behind a tree and observed the cart from far to near.

This big car should be very rich for people to be eligible to ride, its wood is very good, the paint is fine, the visible place on the outside of the body is very rich, not to mention the decoration inside. The driver of the car was wearing a large black cloak and wrapped his whole body in it, apparently to disguise his identity.

In the early morning of this poor country, there were no pedestrians on the roadside, and the driver probably felt the heat and just lifted his cloak. Only then did Zhu Yuanzhang see that he was wearing brown clothes, white leather boots, and a small tapestry. The clothes were a little dirty, and it seemed that he had traveled a long and arduous way to get here.

Seeing this dress, Zhu Yuanzhang was slightly surprised, this is not what ordinary people are qualified to wear. In his impression, the Ming Dynasty is qualified to dress like this, and there is only one kind of person - the head of the Dongchang stall.

Dongchang, the full name is Dongji Factory, is the fourth son of Zhu Yuanzhang, a spy agency made by Zhu Di, the ancestor of the Ming Dynasty, whose main role is to inspect hundreds of officials and monitor Jinyiwei at the same time. Throughout the Ming Dynasty, Dongchang is notorious, handling many unjust, false and wrongful cases, and killing famous generals who do not know how many loyal ministers they have. The biggest leader of this terrorist organization is called the factory governor, and his full name is "the governor of Qincha, the eunuch of the Dongchang official school".

Under the supervision of the factory, there are one member of each of the 1,000 households and 100 households, as well as more than 40 people, including the foreman, the foreman, and the secretary.

The specific ones in charge of the investigation work are the commanders and officers. The captain is also known as the stall head, which is equivalent to the squad leader, and there are more than 100 people in the country. Fan Gong is the lowest-level spy, that is, the "court eagle claw" that often appears in martial arts novels.

Now what Zhu Yuanzhang sees in front of him is a stall head of the East Factory.

In the entire Ming Dynasty, there were only more than a hundred Dongchang stalls, which was much rarer than the number of county orders. It's a pretty big official, and now such a big official is actually helping people catch a car? It can be seen that the identity of the people in the car is extremely extraordinary.

When the car approached, the head of the Dongchang stall who was driving turned his head to look at the Wei Zhongxian Ancestral Hall on the side of the road, and couldn't help but sigh and exclaimed: "The ancestral hall has been demolished?" Oh, my God! His hand shook, the reins straightened, and the eight horses pulling the cart roared at the same time and stopped abruptly.

Then he turned around and exclaimed into the carriage: "Father-in-law, the big thing is not good, the nine-thousand-year-old ancestral hall has been demolished!" ”

The windows of the carriage were swiped open, and a white, beardless face appeared, about thirty years of age, sickly pale in his skin, without a single beard under his chin, and his hair was covered in the middle by a square hat. Zhu Yuanzhang could see at a glance that this was a eunuch among the imperial officials, because there was a unique taste of eunuchs on this face.

What's interesting is that this face always makes Zhu Yuanzhang feel familiar, and after looking at it a few more times, he suddenly remembered that this eunuch looks like a big shirt. Zhu Yuanzhang vaguely remembered that when Ma Qianjiu introduced him to the shirt family, he said that the shirt family was developed by relying on the twelve younger brothers to become eunuchs, and the eunuch in front of him seemed to be the twelve shirts, the great eunuch known as the thirty-two fathers-in-law, and Wei Zhongxian's diehard.

The thirty-second father-in-law glanced at the Wei Zhongxian Ancestral Hall, which was demolished on the side of the road, and his white face suddenly turned red, he couldn't tell whether it was anger or helplessness, he frowned, and said in a low voice: "The emperor wants to deal with the matter of nine thousand years old, even a remote small county in Shaanxi knows about it?" ”

The head of the stall leaned over and said in a low voice: "This thing is full of evil...... It stands to reason that this kind of inside the officialdom did not spread so quickly, how could anyone know that the nine thousand years old was about to fall? ”

Thirty-two shook his head: "Evil Gate, really evil Gate!" By the way, now is not the time to sigh about this matter, now that the news has reached here, we are even more dangerous, hurry home and pack up and run away, otherwise it will be too late. ”

"Hmm!"

The stall hurriedly whipped the horse, and the carriage continued to gallop towards the compound of the shirt family.

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he had completely figured out the situation. It turned out that Emperor Chongzhen was already dealing with Wei Zhongxian, the group of legged dogs under Wei Zhongxian's hands are now scattering birds and beasts, this thirty-two father-in-law is obviously a guy who is good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder, seeing that Wei Zhongxian is about to fall, he actually fled home with his henchmen, planning to flee with his family wealth. It seems that he is already a frightened bird, and when he saw the Wei Zhongxian Ancestral Hall that he demolished, he was so frightened that he was scared.

Ha, it's really interesting, it's very interesting!

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the direction of the shirt family's compound, and thought to himself: It seems that I can make another amount of money...... If I don't take the ill-gotten gains of my father-in-law, won't I be sorry to God?

He came out of his hiding place and hurried to the meeting place of his men, which was in a small ravine two miles south of Mafu, where the young men had already arrived, and were picking and picking in a large pile of bamboo baskets. Someone held a glazed tile and grinned: "Can this tile be exchanged for a bucket of rice?" ”

Someone next to him laughed and scolded: "This is Liuli, do you understand Liuli?" A bucket of rice, look at your little bit of interest! ”

"Wow, I'll trade it for food."

"Don't move, before Brother Zhu comes back, whoever dares to take a copper plate privately, I will fight with him." A young man retrieved the glazed tiles and put them in a bamboo basket.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang happened to walk back, and the young people hurriedly surrounded him: "Brother Zhu, are you back?" That's great! Let's arrange these things. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, waved his hand, and said, "Do you want to exchange these things for money and food?" ”

"yes!" The young people laughed.

Zhu Yuanzhang said seriously: "Break the two silver candlesticks, and each person will share a few pieces of broken silver." Dig a pit and bury them all, and for half a year, no one will touch them. ”

"Huh? Why is that? The young people were shocked: "Why should you bury good things?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang knocked the heads of several young people at the head of the line: "Fool, Wei Zhongxian's ancestral hall was demolished today, and tomorrow you will go to the street to sell glazed tiles, don't you have the words 'I demolished' written on your face?" In a blink of an eye, he was arrested and imprisoned by the government. ”

"This ......," the young people suddenly realized, and then they became depressed: "It turns out that these things are not needed for the time being, alas...... We thought we could get a sum of money to help the poor brothers in the village. ”

"Want cash?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked suddenly.

"Of course I want ......," the young people laughed together, "who doesn't want money." ”

"That'...... Do you dare to kill? Zhu Yuanzhang asked in a deep voice: "If you dare to kill someone, I will have money for you." ”

"Dare, what's not to dare?" The young people laughed.

"Killing people is not so simple...... Zhu Yuanzhang said in a gloomy voice: "Stab the knife into someone else's heart, or cut it on the other party's neck, the blood will rush out, spraying your head all over your face, making your nose full of the smell of blood, the other party will scream under your knife, moaning in pain, after death, his body will tremble and cramp, someone will not close his eyes when he dies, he will stare at you dead, and you will also think of his face when you dream......"

"Silk!" The young people gasped, and one of them couldn't help but ask, "Brother Zhu, do you really want to take us to kill?" ”

"That's right! Do you dare? Zhu Yuanzhang said calmly.

Thirty-five young men were silent at the same time, and this was not something that could be easily nod, or shake their heads. Some people turn white, some turn red, and some turn blue...... When faced with difficult decisions, everyone behaves differently.

After a long time, the nine young people took a step forward at the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang recognized it, these nine young people were the nine poor people in Xigu Village who first came to him to learn boxing and had the heart of rebellion, they had a fierce expression on their faces, and said seriously: "Brother Zhu, who do you want us to kill?" ”

Yes, these nine young people are really the seedlings that I have my eye on. Zhu Yuanzhang smiled in his heart, but said expressionlessly on his face: "I can't tell you who I'm going to kill now, so as not to have an accident......" He didn't say what accidents would happen, but the people present were not all fools, and a few people heard it, this is to keep it secret, so as not to leak the news.

"Is it a good guy or a bad guy?" The young people couldn't help but ask.

"It's the bad guys! And he is a very bad person, let's kill him for heaven's sake. Zhu Yuanzhang said lightly.

"Okay, let's do it with you!" The nine young men from Xigu Village said without hesitation: "We believe in Brother Zhu, since we want to kill a bad person, let's kill him." ”

These nine people took the lead, and the other hesitant young people also gritted their teeth, people are this thing, they are afraid of being instigated, and the binding effect will appear again, and the other young people will be heartbroken and say: "We also listen to Zhu Bugs, and we will kill people with you." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was satisfied, he smashed the two silver candlesticks, distributed them to everyone, and then asked the young people to dig a few big pits, bury all the glazed tiles, and carry things like sandalwood desks and gauze tents to those who need them home. He did not hide from anyone the location of the glazed tiles, because it was a new test, and if any young man could resist the temptation of these glazed tiles and sneak up to dig them up while others were not looking, then he would be excluded from the future uprising. He needed his original team from the time of the uprising, all of whom were the most loyal fighters.

After disposing of this batch of items, he waved his hand and said, "Go back, the murder is not urgent today." You have a good night's sleep first, and tomorrow evening, gather here again, let's kill people and rob money." By the way, don't bring knives, everyone brings a sturdy stick! ”

He knew that the Shirt family had a huge amount of property, and it would not take a few hours to turn these properties into money and dismiss them, it would take at least a day, and it would be impossible for the Shirt family to escape during the day, that would be too eye-catching, and they would definitely choose it at night...... It's time to do it yourself. As for letting them bring wooden sticks, it was to unify weapons, he didn't want his subordinates to be like Zheng Yanfu's subordinates, who held all kinds of fancy weapons in their hands.
