The shock that Qi Heng brought to them today was too much.

Don't say it's like Liu Bowen, a person who has just come to the Righteous Army.

Even Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Shanchang and Xu Da also felt too incredible about what is happening in Anfeng Road today.

It's only been three years, and the entire Anfeng Road territory has undergone such earth-shaking changes, recalling that when they left three years ago, the entire Anfeng Road didn't dare to say that it was poor, but it was definitely not good.

At that time, Anfeng Road had just experienced the attack of 150,000 troops.

But now, under Qi Heng's governance, the entire Anfeng Road has not only gotten rid of famine, but also grown the population of the entire territory from about 400,000 at the beginning to as many as 890,000 today.

And the people in the territory have also got rid of the initial poverty and reached the level of food and clothing.

Even the economic system of the entire territory is constantly recovering and prospering, and if it continues to develop at this rate, they know very well that the people in the entire Anfeng Road will not just get rid of poverty.

The silent Liu Bowen stood in the corner, recalling the so-called prosperous Tang Dynasty situation he saw in the book, compared with today's Anfeng Road, it should be nothing more than that.

In the whole day after that, Qi Heng took Zhu Yuanzhang and other people to check the entire territory of Anfeng Road.

The cotton production area in Mengcheng in the northwest, the corn, sweet potato and other miscellaneous grain production areas in Shouchun in the southwest, and the aquaculture industry in the southeast...

Every time I go to a place where an industry is planned, everyone present can't help but be amazed.

Especially when Liu Bowen, Li Shanchang and others learned about the terrifying output of corn, sweet potatoes and other industrial areas.

Their gaze when they looked at Qi Heng changed again and again.

Of course, in addition to these industrial areas that can improve the livelihood of all the people in Anfeng Road, the development of industry is naturally indispensable.

In the entire central area of Anfeng Road, Qi Heng drew a very wide land for Shen Wansan.

The Armaments Division, which was once located in Huanggang City, has also continued to grow, and with the continuous discovery of mines, the output is also increasing rapidly.

The steam-powered ships that traveled to and from the entire Anfeng Road were all from the Armaments Department under Shen Wanshan.

Today, there are as many as four shipyards under the Armaments Division.

At the same time, such as the scientific research department that develops basic science and technology, the artillery construction department that specializes in artillery, the firearms construction department that specializes in the research and development of firearms and rifles, and even the steam locomotive construction department that specializes in the research and development of land steam-powered trains in China...

There are already more than a dozen branches like this.

In general, now the entire Anfeng Road is under the control of the General Qi Heng's Mansion.

The problem of food for the people in the territory has been completely solved.

And with the solution of the food problem of the people in the territory, the economy is constantly developing.

The continuous rise of the economy has driven the government yamen and the general's mansion to become richer and richer.

In many cases, because of different policies, it may lead to a strong country, not necessarily a rich people.

The wealth of the people does not necessarily mean that the country is strong.

But under the economic system designed by Qi Heng, an economic closed loop has been formed.

The people are the basis of the government.

As long as the people have money and food, their general's mansion will have money and food.

They are mutually reinforcing.

The reason why Qi Heng was able to set up more than a dozen branches of armaments at once and study different scientific research directions at the same time.

In addition, vocational education and the construction of basic education are vigorously promoted in the territory.

The source of all this is that the people have become rich, and his general's mansion has also become rich.

When the group looked around the territory of Anfeng Road, until they came to Shouchun City the next night and stayed at the largest four-story inn in Shouchun City, everyone became silent.

Because they can't describe the shock in their hearts in words.

Although the area of Anfeng Road is not too vast, it seems to have the prototype of a small kingdom.

Today's Anfeng Road is like an engine that runs non-stop.

All the time, it brings powerful logistical supplies to the rebels.

Think about the people living in Anfeng Road today, their lives can be described as rich.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all supported by the industries planned by Qi Heng.

Feel the softness brought by the sofa of this Shouchun Inn.

Comfort brought by a quilt.

They seem to be able to imagine that in the near future, these things can enter the homes of every Anfeng Road people.

Wasn't such a good living condition exactly what they were looking forward to day and night?

They started a rebellion from a humble status, in order to have a rich and comfortable living environment in the future?

And now all this has been realized in Anfeng Road.

In their eyes, the life of the people in the territory of Anfeng Road is like paradise.

Think of the victims who are still gnawing on the skinny bones of the bark of the trees.

This Anfeng Road is simply a paradise in the territory of the Yuan Dynasty today.

Just in the evening when everyone gathers in the restaurant to prepare for dinner.

Xu Da seemed to suddenly think of something, and asked with concern: "Brother Qi, after looking at this circle, how is it all about your governance, how is the development of the army?" Let us learn from you, and we will do it under us in the future. ”

Looking at it in this circle, Li Shanchang, Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Bowen have learned a lot of things, but for him, Xu Da, a military general, he has seen a lot of excitement, but there are very few that can really be used in the army.

So don't think about letting Qi Heng take him around the army, so that he can have a little more knowledge and implement it among his subordinates when he returns.

As Xu Da said this, Zhu Yuanzhang was immediately aroused.

Three years ago, when Qi Heng was named the general of Anfeng Land Rover, it was said that Qi Heng should be controlled by the military and the government.

There is no reason why there has been such a horrific advance in governance and not the slightest change in the army.

However, in the face of Xu Da's question, Qi Heng showed a rare cautious attitude.

"Brother Xu, I'm also human! Are you trying to exhaust me? It's only been three years, I've been busy with the people's affairs, anyway, the army has a big brother with you, why am I worried so much? ”

The exaggerated expression on Qi Heng's face made everyone smile.

But think about it, it's only been three years, Qi Heng can build the entire Anfeng Road into what it is now, it is already amazing, if there are still great achievements in the army, it will be too terrifying.

After hearing Qi Heng's words, Zhu Yuanzhang, Li Shanchang and Xu Da didn't think much about it, and they just forgot it after laughing.

And only Liu Bowen was looking at Qi Heng, with a look of loss on his face.

When they came from Jinling City to Anfeng Road before, he remembered what happened at the ferry.

can become Zhu Yuanzhang's guard, and the soldiers who accompanied him dare not say that they are one enemy and one hundred, but at least they are also elite soldiers in the army.

But these elite soldiers in the army were so unbearable when they faced the ordinary guards of more than 20 people under Qi Heng.

At that time, he Liu Bowen was also at the scene, although the other party had a repeating crossbow in his hand, and his weapons were more advanced and powerful than Zhu Yuanzhang's guards.

But in the end, the number of these people is only about 20.

On his side, there are nearly 100 people.

The reason why there is such a big contrast between the encounters between the two sides at the ferry is that in addition to Zhu Yuanzhang himself not wanting to fight with his own people, the momentum of the other party is also a very key factor.

There was no fear in the slightest, and everyone had a look of slaughter on their faces.

And he was well-trained, and it took less than twenty breaths from the whistle to the time he appeared next to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Every soldier on the other side performed their own duties, and they used more than 20 people to frighten their escort team of nearly 100 people.

If these soldiers were also like Zhu Yuanzhang's escorts, they were all selected from the elite of the army, then it was still said in the past, but these people were just some ordinary ferry guards.

From a peek at the surface, it can be seen that the army in Anfeng Road today is by no means the one Qi Heng said without any action.

Thinking back to Qi Heng's answer just now, why did he hide his achievements in the army in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and Xu Da?

This is well worth scrutinizing.

Liu Bowen, who was not an ordinary person, understood the reason why Qi Heng did this after just a little thought.

Now he is famous at a young age, but at the age of 18, he has become the general of the entire Anfeng Road Righteous Army.

His subordinates are even more in charge of the integration of the military and government of Anfeng Road.

In terms of influence and control in Anfeng Road alone, even Zhu Yuanzhang, the generalissimo of the Righteous Army, is definitely unable to compare with Qi Heng.

What's more, today's Anfeng Road is thriving under the governance of Qi Heng, and the people in it seem to have lived a prosperous life.

These only need to recall the things they saw and heard after they set foot on the land in Anfeng Road.

The people of the entire Anfeng Road. As long as Qi Heng is mentioned, everyone is amazed and grateful.

is in a high position, holding all the military and political power in Anfeng Road, and is loved by the people in the territory.

Such a person, for Zhu Yuanzhang, is a blessing or a curse, who knows?

Since ancient times, has there been less cases of emperors slaughtering ministers and ministers?

At this moment, Liu Bowen looked at the look on Qi Heng's face, and he could guess that Qi Heng should also be aware of this, and even be afraid of it.

So after everyone had learned so much about his exploits, it was appropriate to hide something.

Especially on the military side.

Governance, no matter how talented you are, how much the people love you, at best, you are a great talent in governing the world, and the prime minister of the country will be under one person and above ten thousand people in the future.

But once you have achieved success in the army, it is as terrifying as in governance.

For today's generalissimo Zhu Yuanzhang of the righteous army, the meaning is completely different.

Because once the strength of the army in your hands reaches a certain level, you can completely break away from Zhu Yuanzhang and become your own faction.

Even with so many logistical supplies on Anfeng Road, the army in his hands can completely eliminate Zhu Yuanzhang directly.

Fill somebody's shoes.

If he Liu Bowen sits in Zhu Yuanzhang's position, I am afraid that the sofa under his butt at this moment will not bring him comfort, but it will be as hot as fire, and it will be like sitting on pins and needles!

What's more, once Qi Heng showed some military talent.

I'm afraid that Qi Heng's existence will make him even more taboo than the Yuan Court.

Thinking of these, Liu Bowen continued to think along this line of thought.

For many things between Qi Heng and Zhu Yuanzhang, I can see it clearly.

When he was still in Qingtian, when he saw Li Shanchang for the first time, he was a little puzzled when he saw the deep scar on his face.

At the beginning, Li Shanchang was the only adviser by Zhu Yuanzhang's side in Jinling City, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a pseudo-prime minister.

But why, Li Shanchang, who was in such a high position and had Zhu Yuanzhang's trust so much, was whipped in the face by Qi Heng.

Even if Qi Heng won Zhu Yuanzhang's trust again, he would be insulted in this way in the face of his best strategists.

Nor can it be easy to give up.

The reason why this situation can occur today is basically that Li Shanchang is not reused by Zhu Yuanzhang at all.

If so, then the fight will also be fought, and it is not a big deal.

But at that time, Li Shanchang's official position in the rebel army was obviously not the case.

So at that time, he was still very confused.

But now that I see this, I understand it all at once.

Compared with Qi Heng, Li Shanchang's weight by Zhu Yuanzhang's side is obviously so insignificant.

It's not just a personal emotion, it's a talent contrast between the two.

As far as the current grand situation in Anfeng Road is concerned, not to mention that he is one Li Shanchang, even ten Li Shanchang will never be able to do it.

Because anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current situation in Anfeng Road is not only achievable by governance.

To put it bluntly, the current situation in Anfeng Road is basically Qi Heng smashed the original political system and economic system, and then re-kneaded it.

Like the reservoir, like the steam-powered ships sailing on the river. Compared with the past dynasties, the development of Anfeng Road is subversive and epoch-making.

None of this can be done by relying on one or two capable ministers.

This is what it takes for a society to come after countless years of tempering.

If it weren't for the fact that all of this had been actually presented in front of him now, otherwise he Liu Bowen would never have believed that it took one person three years to do it.

Since Qi Heng is so much stronger than Li Shancheng, why would Zhu Yuanzhang reuse such a person who is looked down upon, even disgusted by Qi Heng, and has hatred?

The answer is obvious, Li Shanchang was reused entirely because Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to create some difficulties for Qi Heng.

Let his two subordinates check and balance each other and maintain balance, so that his power in Zhu Yuanzhang can be stabilized.

It can be said that in terms of Qi Heng's energy in the righteous army now, it is simply easy to deal with a Li Shanchang.

The reason why Li Shanchang was not cleaned up by Qi Heng was not only because of his own talent, but also because of Zhu Yuanzhang behind him.

After understanding all this, the corners of Liu Bowen's mouth unconsciously showed a smile, and he suddenly felt that the situation inside the rebel army was quite interesting now.

At the same time, there is also a hint of pride in seeing through everything.

Although it seems that everyone is happy on the surface at this moment, in fact, except for Xu Da, the other three people know all about this.

Especially Qi Heng, who is in a high position but can still clearly recognize his own danger at all times, this mentality is really terrifying.

You must know that today's Qi Heng is only eighteen years old.

With his age, if Zhu Yuanzhang can really dominate the world, it is not impossible to govern the two dynasties.

And now he is the first person under Zhu Yuanzhang, General Huwei, and in the future, his future is really incredible.

At this time, he also understood more why he felt that his physiognomy was indescribably precious when he saw Qi Heng for the first time.

While Liu Bowen was thinking about these in his heart, he was also secretly thinking about his future.

On the surface, he Liu Bowen seems to be walking leisurely every day, and he has no quarrel with the world.

But he himself knew in his heart that as a scholar or a person who had won fame, how could he really be beyond the world.

The reason why I studied for the imperial examination is not to be able to enter politics in the future, be in charge of the political side, and leave a name in history?

And now that he has been tied up by Zhu Yuanzhang, it is impossible for Zhu Yuanzhang to let go of himself easily, and he understands these in his heart.

The reason why he was reluctant to take refuge in Zhu Yuanzhang before, in addition to his disapproval of the righteous army, was not because he had no intention of waiting for the price to sell.

It has always been a common thing for a famous minister to choose the master, and the phoenix to choose a tree to perch.

But now, when he saw everything in Anfeng Road with his own eyes, he already deeply understood in his heart that in today's world, there are probably not many people who can be with Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time.

You must know that the grain production in Anfeng Road alone is enough to meet the consumption of 1.8 million people.

And that's just the annual output, not counting the grain reserves of the last three years.

Aside from the rest, these food reserves alone were enough for them to recruit as many soldiers as they could recruit to fight for them.

In this world, as long as you can give him a bowl of rice to eat every day, there are many people who are willing to serve you on the battlefield.

The half of the extra grain produced in Anfeng Road can be used to recruit soldiers.

That's seven or eight hundred thousand soldiers.

Coupled with the soldiers in the original territory, the strength of Zhu Yuanzhang's command can reach one million in a short period of time.

The content of the recruitment letter that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Li Shanchang to write to him was not just an exaggeration.

It's a real army of millions.

With such a force, in the entire southeast of the Yuan Dynasty and even the entire Yuan Dynasty, who can compare with him.

Even the Yuan Dynasty itself is afraid that it will be difficult to gather an army of one million troops now.

Although the territory under Zhu Yuanzhang's command is not very large, there is not even a line of provincial land.

But as long as you have these armies, it's only a matter of time before you attack the city.

See when he's willing to attack.

And Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't even need to worry about the logistical supply of these troops, because the grain production in Anfeng Road is enough to meet all the consumption of his army.

So at this time, Liu Bowen already had the idea of wanting to take refuge in his heart, and even made up his mind to stay.

It's just that at this moment, he is still thinking about which force he will integrate into after entering Zhu Yuanzhang's command.

As far as Wenchen is concerned, there are now two camps under Zhu Yuanzhang, the first is Li Shanchang's camp secretly supported by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the second is the indescribable Huwei General camp in front of him.

If you just compare Li Shanchang and Qi Heng, this doesn't need to be considered at all.

Because whether it is in terms of talent, strength, or power, Li Shanchang cannot be compared with Qi Heng, or even at the same level.

But it was Zhu Yuanzhang who supported him behind Li Shanchang.

Now the generalissimo of the rebel army.

Nominally, everything now belongs to him Zhu Yuanzhang.

Therefore, it is not so much that he is choosing between Qi Heng and Li Shanchang, but that he is choosing between Qi Heng and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Now that only one Jinling City has been laid, Qi Heng has become the head of the ministers under Zhu Yuanzhang.

Power has basically reached its peak.

What kind of changes will occur between Qi Heng and Zhu Yuanzhang in the future, no one dares to say. But he Liu Bowen can be sure that there will definitely be disputes and contradictions between the two.

It is absolutely impossible to avoid.

Even if Qi Heng is willing to be like today, he is willing to depretend to himself everywhere.

Contradictions are still inevitable.

The only solution between the two is that Zhu Yuanzhang is willing to be a puppet without any power.

In this way, the contradiction between the two will naturally not exist.

Otherwise, how could the struggle between the imperial power and the power of the previous dynasties continue to this day.

If the imperial power is strong, the relative power is in vain. If the power is strong, the imperial power is like a puppet.

Neither of them is a good solution for the country as a whole.

On the contrary, it is best to maintain a balance between the two.

But the problem now is that Qi Heng's edge is unstoppable.

There is simply no way to solve this problem.

Liu Bowen can be sure that if the righteous army really wins the world in the future, then everything in the later period will definitely revolve around the battle between Qi Heng and Zhu Yuanzhang.

Therefore, his choice at this time not only represents the present, but also the future.

A battle that would decide the lives and deaths of countless people.

couldn't help but have a solemn look on Liu Bowen's face.

"Brother Berwyn..."

"Brother Berwyn?"

"Brother Berwyn!"

Liu Bowen, who was suddenly shouted by Li Shanchang, suddenly woke up from his thoughts.

When he turned back, he saw that everyone was looking at him.

Just when Liu Bowen didn't know what to say, Li Shanchang on the side suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Bowen, what do you want, so obsessed?" ”

Liu Bowen faced everyone's gaze, smiled and said: "What I heard and saw on Anfeng Road today is really too shocking, Berwen, Berwen didn't hear it for a while. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang, who heard this, said: "No, today is also the first time we have seen Engong's generosity." ”

Qi Heng hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head.

Just when the topic was about to develop in the direction that he couldn't interject, Li Shanchang, who had been silent for a whole day, hurriedly said to Liu Bowen: "Brother Bowen, I just said that I want to return to Jinling, I want to hear your thoughts." ”

As Li Shanchang said this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly remembered, patted his thigh and said, "Yes, yes, let's forget about it." ”

"Sir, now that this Anfeng Road has been read, and our Engong has also received it, why don't you go back to Jinling?"

Liu Bowen, who heard the inquiry, naturally did not think that the next itinerary would be decided by himself.

The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang asked this was just because he wanted to recruit himself and show respect.

Then he arched his hand and said: "Naturally, I will listen to the arrangement of the marshal." ”

Seeing that Liu Bowen did not refuse, Zhu Yuanzhang was in a good mood, waved his hand to the soldiers at the door, and said, "Let's go, go back to Jinling!" ”

Along the waterway in the territory of Anfeng Road, from the tributaries of the Huai River, the boat goes directly to Jinling City.

The night passed, and when everyone woke up from the cabin in the morning, the ship had already arrived near the waters outside Jinling City.

On deck.

Zhu Yuanzhang took his hand and looked at Jinling City in front of him.

It wasn't until footsteps sounded behind him that he turned his head.

Seeing Qi Heng walking out of the cabin behind him, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Engong, get up so early."

Qi Heng stretched out casually and said, "It's still not as early as the eldest brother." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang laughed loudly.

Then he stood on the deck and looked at the great rivers and mountains around him, and said longingly: "Look at these great rivers and mountains, how beautiful the scenery is." ”

looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's line of sight.

Really.

As it dawned today, the sun had just appeared, and it was emerging little by little behind the mountains in the distance.

The light of the morning sun also appeared from the darkness little by little, shining on the heavens and the earth.

Qi Heng took a deep breath of the fresh morning air, and said with a chuckle: "Yes, beautiful mountains and rivers, splendid world." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "I am among the heavens and the earth, nourished by all things, and should be cultivated at sunrise and rested at sunset." But he never thought about it, but now he put down his hoe and picked up his sword. ”

Qi Heng didn't understand why Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said this, so he followed his words and said: "Yes, if it weren't for the chaos in the world and the people's livelihood, we should have all taken hoes to open up wasteland and expand the land, plant in spring and harvest in autumn, and save food, so we would marry a mother-in-law and have children." ”

"Watch them grow up one by one, and then start their own families."

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang heard Qi Heng say about his mother-in-law, he thought that Qi Heng was hinting at him, so he couldn't help but smile and pointed at Qi Heng.

Then, without waiting for Qi Heng to explain, he said: "Today, we are standing on this high place, looking at the surrounding scene, and suddenly I feel a little emotional. ”

"It is said that the heavens and the earth are impermanent, and even the saints say that the heavens and the earth are impermanent, and the wise should follow the trend. But let's just look at the world as usual, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, the sun and the moon turn and the stars move, and the eternal remains unchanged. ”

When Qi Heng heard this, he was surprised that Zhu Yuanzhang could say something in his mouth, and at the same time, he also replied: "Actually, the saint and the eldest brother are not wrong, heaven and earth are constant and impermanent, it depends on what heaven and earth are and whose heaven and earth they are." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang tilted his head and said, "Oh? How so? ”

Qi Heng pointed to this heaven and earth and said: "If you talk about the world of the people, it is not so much this heaven and earth as the court. ”

"All things gifted by heaven and earth are enough for the people of the world to live and feed, but why are there still famine refugees everywhere?"

"To put it bluntly, the court is the world of the people, the court implements for the sky, the court is honest and diligent, and the people are naturally rich."

"If the court is mediocre, then the people naturally have nowhere to survive."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that it was not unreasonable and nodded.

"But if it's the big brother's world, it's different. To put it bluntly, our rebels are fighting everywhere, just to overthrow the tyrannical yuan and act on behalf of the way of heaven and earth. And if you want to overthrow them, you must know more about heaven and earth than they are, and know better what the way of heaven and earth is. ”

"Therefore, I said that the world of the eldest brother is different from the people, the heaven of the eldest brother is the desire of the people, and the land is the courage of the generals under his command. In this way, the two are combined, and they are the avenue, and they can crisscross between the heavens and the earth. ”

Qi Heng's remarks, Zhu Yuanzhang heard of it for the first time.

But if you think about it, that's exactly what happened.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed for a long time: "So let's say, the difficulties in this world are not the disasters of heaven and earth, but the disasters of man!" ”

"If the tyrannical yuan can't do the avenue of heaven and earth, naturally someone will take charge of the world on his behalf."

"If one day we really conquer the world, but I don't know if there will be a man-made disaster because of us, so that the world will be in chaos."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked into the distance with a solemn expression, although Qi Heng didn't know what he meant in his words, he just muttered softly: "No." ”

The voice was not high, but it was unusually firm.

As the ship got closer and closer to Jinling City, Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang in the cabin also walked out one after another.

It wasn't until the boat stopped at the pier outside Jinling City that everyone got off the boat and headed towards Jinling City.

"Handsome! My lord! ”

At the gate of Jinling City, Yu Guangdao had already led the Mu Chen of the General's Mansion to wait here.

When Qi Heng and the others decided to go directly to Jinling City, the news had already been sent to Huanggang City.

Because Huanggang City was closer to Jinling City, they had to arrive before Qi Heng.

Listening to Yu Guangdao's words, Zhu Yuanzhang and Qi Heng nodded and headed towards the marshal mansion in the city.

Just when they and their group had just arrived at the door of the Great Marshal's Mansion, a shout rang out at the door.

"Brother Qi Heng!!"

A little girl of seven or eight years old ran towards Qi Heng.

Qi Heng hugged her up.

looked at the still who has grown up now, and said, "The little girl has also grown up." ”

Still pouting, he said, "Of course! ”

After saying that, he suddenly turned his head away.

Qi Heng was stunned: "What's wrong?" ”

Faced with the difference on Qi Heng's face, Zhu Yuanzhang on the side knew it, and stood next to him with a wicked smile and looked at Qi Heng.

And hearing Qi Heng's inquiry, he suddenly puffed out his cheeks and asked, "Didn't my brother say that he would come to see him when he was in Huanggang City?" Why haven't you come to see me for three years? ”

Qi Heng suddenly smiled: "Isn't my brother too busy?" ”

But she still glared at Qi Heng with her good-looking little eyes and said, "Liar! You remember asking your sister to find you a beautiful sister, but she said that she was too busy to look at me, and I thought my brother just forgot about me. ”

Qi Heng, who heard this, was dumbfounded.

Zhu Yuanzhang on the side immediately laughed loudly.

Thinking of the beautiful big sister he still talked about, Qi Heng suddenly thought of the request that Zhu Yuanzhang made to him when he left Huanggang City for Jinling City.

Suddenly said helplessly: "Didn't my brother go to see that beautiful sister either?" ”

After listening to Qi Heng's explanation, after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.

wrinkled his nose, made a generous appearance and said, "Forget it, I'll forgive you this time." ”

Everyone around looked at the villain and made a gesture of an adult, and immediately burst into laughter.

Qi Heng rubbed his still little head and said, "Look, they're all laughing at you." ”

still said: "I'm obviously laughing at you!" ”

Qi Heng, who couldn't say anything, had no choice but to smile and say, "Okay, okay, laugh at me, laugh at me, okay." ”

Qi Heng looked at the changes that were still in the past three years at this moment, and he was quite happy in his heart.

Every time he saw the still well-behaved and timid appearance, he felt distressed.

Now she has finally opened her heart and is happy.

This shows that in the past three years, Ma Xiuying has taken good care of her.

Thinking of Qi Heng here, he couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Zhu Yuanzhang beside him.

Funai.

After simply arranging everyone's accommodation, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered all the generals under his command to come to the lobby of the Grand Marshal's Mansion.

This time, he had to transfer Qi Heng from Anfeng Road back to Jinling City, and even did not hesitate to let Qi Heng return to the center of power again.

The purpose is very clear, that is, to rectify the rule of officials and to rectify military discipline.

And now summoning all the generals of the army in the lobby is the beginning of it all.

And after hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Qi Heng actually guessed something.

Three years have passed, and in these three years, Zhu Yuanzhang has not once said that he will be transferred back to Jinling City.

And now at this point in time, he personally came to Anfeng Road to bring him back to Jinling City.

It can be seen that there must be a purpose.

So Qi Heng had already guessed some of Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts before he came, and now that he heard that he was going to summon all the generals to the lobby, he naturally guessed some possibilities.

For this reason, Qi Heng's heart was also prepared.

What happens next may not be so easy to do.

As Zhu Yuanzhang's command was conveyed to the entire Jinling City, the generals in the military camp in the city also rushed to the marshal's mansion one by one after hearing the news.

After all the generals rushed to the marshal's mansion, Zhu Yuanzhang also walked from the backyard to the front of the hall.

At this time, in the hall of the Marshal's Mansion, the civil ministers in the city stood on the right side, and the military generals stood on the left side.

Even Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen, who have not yet entered the ranks, are also in the ranks.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing above the lobby at all times, looked around at the civil and military ministers on both sides.

Then he said in front of everyone: "Since the rebellion of our rebels, our team has joined countless brothers from all over the world, among these people, there are all kinds of people, some are bandits who rob homes and houses, and some are born thieves. ”

"But no matter what, since they joined the Righteous Army, they have fought bloody battles with us everywhere, killed countless officers and soldiers, and paid a lot for our Righteous Army today."

"Some brothers even died halfway through, and they didn't have time to take a look at the grand occasion of our righteous army today."

"In the past, our Zhu Yuanzhang was just a deputy marshal, and he just wanted to lead the brothers around him to work hard to make their own world, at least so that we would not starve to death on the side of the road."

"But as we fight more and more rivers and territories, we sometimes think about it."

"What do you say we people are fighting against the Yuan Court for?"

"But when we went to Anfeng Road this time, we saw that the lives of the people in Anfeng Road had undergone earth-shaking changes from the original, and we didn't have to worry about food and clothing, so we understood."

"Our righteous army is not only for us to eat and drink enough, but also for those people in their city to be able to eat and drink enough and live a stable and prosperous life."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang was suddenly silent for a moment, and then looked up at everyone below, his expression became a little murderous.

"Since we have moved into Jinling City, what have you done during this time? I'm sure I know it all in my heart. ”

"Which of you has taken the things of the people, and robbed the rich men of the rich and the rich, and robbed the daughters of the rich men of the houses of the people as concubines?"

"Yes, we know that many of these rich people are not good people, but there are not a few good people among them?"

"Shall we kill all the rich men just because there are bad people among them? Are you going to rob someone else's daughter as a concubine? ”

"From today onwards, let's tell you all that if these rich men and gentry really do something wrong, and the heavens will not tolerate it, they will report it to the officials and let the government punish them."

"No one else shall go to these rich gentry with his sword in his hand. After we said it, if anyone does such a thing again, don't blame us Zhu Yuanzhang for not remembering the brotherhood of the past. ”

"Of course, everyone is also the first time to be a rebel, the first time to enter this Jinling City, we are not afraid of doing something wrong, we are all mud legs and not afraid of ugliness, let's admit our mistakes, just change it in the future."

"But some of you, relying on your status in the army now, actually robbed homes and houses, robbed the daughters of ordinary people, and didn't give money for food! I can understand you bullying those rich people, but we don't understand if you bully these ordinary people, weren't we all bullied people before this? ”

"Why is it that after changing his identity now, he still has to learn from those officials of the Yuan Court to bully the common people? Some people even killed the owner of a restaurant in front of us! ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang slapped the desk in front of him.

Anger flooded his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang usually doesn't get angry very often, but now he is angry, but everyone present does not dare to raise his head.

Even some people who have not done anything bad are afraid to look at them.

At this time, Zhu Yong, who was standing behind the generals on the left, listened to what Zhu Yuanzhang said on the stage, and knew very well that the person in Zhu Yuanzhang's mouth was himself.

At this time, he was trembling with fear.

With his head down, he didn't dare to look at Zhu Yuanzhang in front of him.

However, his dodge had no effect, because Zhu Yuanzhang's gaze had already looked towards him.

scolded loudly: "Zhu Yong, come out for me!" ”

Zhu Yong, who heard this, came to the center of the hall trembling and knelt in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Subordinate, subordinate guilty, hope for the handsome, handsome and gracious!!"

Not only Zhu Yong, but also the subordinates who were evil in the restaurant with Zhu Yong that day also followed Zhu Yong and knelt in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
