Chapter 562: Zhu Yuanzhang has become a thief

"I said, sir, can you rest for a while?" Zhu Yuanzhang, who was lying in a rocking chair, helplessly watched Gao Fei pacing back and forth in front of him.

After he talked to Gao Fei a few days ago, Gao Fei is getting more and more idle. As he said, there are fewer and fewer people fleeing from the surrounding areas of Datong Mansion.

In the earliest days, there were hundreds of people at a time, and then dozens and hundreds of people later. Except for the many people who came at once a few days ago, there are only a dozen refugees at the checkpoint every day recently.

There is no need for him to deal with such a small number of refugees in person. The other little officials can be easily disposed of.

After all, people are creatures, and the more they are, the more difficult they are to manage. If it's just one or two people, you don't even need to do anything special.

Just tell them where to go and let them go on their own. This also made Goofy more and more idle.

At first, Goofy was very happy, after all, he was able to continue to live his previous free life.

But after only two days of sleep, Goofy began to feel uncomfortable. Maybe it's because I'm used to being busy, and when I suddenly get idle, I always feel uncomfortable.

Although the current Datong Mansion is much more lively than before, and there is such a thing as storytelling.

It stands to reason that it shouldn't be boring. But looking at the endless stream of people on the street, he had nothing to do.

Gao Fei suddenly felt that even the storytelling seemed a little boring. And after taking Zhu Yuanzhang to listen to a storytelling, every time he listened to a book, the two of them basically went together.

Although this guy often disagrees with him, and is very ignorant of lifting. He has personally recruited I don't know how many times, this guy just won't agree.

At least it's not boring. Now this guy doesn't know why, he stays in the yamen every day and doesn't go out.

If you listen to a book by yourself, you find it very boring.

"This is Lord Ben's yamen, Lord Ben can be wherever he wants, what do you want to do with Lord Ben?" Gao Fei glanced at Lao Zhu very provocatively.

Seeing his irritable appearance, Zhu Yuanzhang already understood what was going on. After all, he had experienced this situation before, and when he suddenly became idle after being busy, he not only did not feel relaxed, but felt uncomfortable all over his body.

Later, after a long time, I slowly got used to it. Although Lao Zhu is still a workaholic, he has learned to relax himself and enjoy life when it is time to rest.

"My lord, we know you're in a bad mood, come and drink tea to cool off." As he spoke, he took the initiative to pour a cup of tea for Gao Fei.

How can Goofy have the mind to drink tea now?

"You guy's life is comfortable, do you know that Lord Ben is dying of annoyance now?"

"Not only do you not share the worries of Lord Ben, but you even dare to read Lord Ben's jokes."

"Believe it or not, Lord Ben will let you go to the checkpoint right now and go bask in the sun with them." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled: "We don't have any opinions, but if we go over there to guard the customs, I'm afraid the accounts in this yamen will have to be settled by yourself." Goofy's breath couldn't help but stagnate.

Although he can't compare to those professional bookkeepers, he can't stop him from settling accounts or anything. It's just that he is really not the kind of person who can calm down and deal with the case.

"Don't think I don't know." Gao Fei gritted his teeth fiercely and said, "You only need two or three hours a day to finish those accounts, and there is still a lot of time left to guard the checkpoint." Regarding his threat, Lao Zhu didn't pay attention to it at all: "If the adults let us guard the checkpoint, then we can't guarantee that these accounts can be settled within two or three hours." ”

"You dare to threaten Lord Ben?" Goofy's teeth creaked.

"Your Excellency, you misunderstood, we didn't mean that." Lao Zhu said that he apologized, but the expression on his face was clearly saying, I am threatening you, what can you do to me?

Gao Fei really can't help Zhu Yuanzhang, unless he is willing to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. Send Lao Zhu to the checkpoint, and then deal with the accounts in the house by yourself.

"Count you ruthless, you wait for Lord Ben." Gao Fei took a cup of tea and drank it cleanly.

Even the tea leaves were swallowed in his mouth and chewed non-stop. When he chewed the tea leaves, he kept staring at Zhu Yuanzhang, as if it was not tea leaves, but Zhu Yuanzhang's meat.

Of course, Lao Zhu will not take this threat to heart. took a leisurely sip of tea: "My lord, you are also an official." ”

"As an official, you must be calm no matter what you do, and if you put any thoughts on your face like this, you will definitely suffer a big loss in the future."

"Actually, you don't have to be so irritable, I believe it won't be long before you get busy again." Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Gao Fei immediately pricked up his ears: "What do you say?" ”

"Isn't our Datong Mansion offering a bounty for the capture of the White Lotus Sect recently?" Zhu Yuanzhang replied unhurriedly.

Hearing him talk about this, Gao Fei suddenly felt bored: "This is the matter of those who are not happy with Jinyiwei, and it has little to do with us." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "My lord, do you really think so?" Seeing that the guy in front of him seemed to have something to say, Gao Fei reluctantly raised some interest: "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't make it mysterious." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't fly vigorously, and said to himself: "My lord, think about it, okay, why are there so many people from the White Lotus Sect in Datong Mansion?" ”

"These people from the White Lotus Sect are also raised by their fathers and mothers, so it can't be that they popped out of the cracks in the stones, right?" Gao Fei pursed his lips disdainfully: "What's so strange about this, the White Lotus Sect is deeply rooted, isn't it normal for Datong Mansion to have the rudder of the White Rock Sect?" Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head: "Of course, it's normal, but after all, they can't see the light, and they used to act secretly." ”

"It is impossible for the imperial court to be without a little precaution against them."

"But why did all of a sudden, the King of England personally order a reward for those of the White Lotus Sect?" With Zhu Yuanzhang's explanation, Gao Fei also seemed to gradually understand something.

His face changed slightly: "Lao Chang, what do you mean to say ......" Zhu Yuanzhang bowed: "That's right, it seems that you are not so stupid." ”

"The government suddenly issued a bounty, which shows that the matter of the White Lotus Sect has now reached a point where it cannot be resolved."

"Since ancient times, all natural disasters have inevitably been accompanied by man-made disasters."

"The drought in Datong is so serious this time, of course the people of the White Lotus Sect will also take advantage of this opportunity to cause chaos."

"No matter what they want to do, the first is that they need to have money, and the second is that they need people."

"Then my lord, how will these people enter Datong Mansion?" The more Zhu Yuanzhang said, the more ugly Gao Fei's face became.

"Damn these bastards, they must have pretended to be refugees and infiltrated Datong Mansion."

"Your Excellency is wise." Zhu Yuanzhang looked relieved, as if the elders were teaching the younger generations.

will not be angry gritted his teeth, and there is no way to take Zhu Yuanzhang.

"So don't worry, my lord, in order to investigate the whereabouts of the White Lotus Sect's rebels, you will definitely need the assistance of your people."

"I believe it won't be long before you get busy."

"Cut!" Gao Fei pouted with disdain: "Who likes to be busy, now you don't have to do anything every day, Lord Ben is very comfortable." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and did not dismantle the other party.

"That's right." Gao Fei seemed to suddenly remember something, staring at Zhu Yuanzhang with burning eyes.

The sharp eyes seemed to turn into substance. If an ordinary person is looked at like this by Gao Fei, he will definitely feel uncomfortable up and down.

Maybe he can scare a good guy, but Zhu Yuanzhang seems to be fine, and he doesn't seem to feel Gao Fei's forced gaze at all.

"Usual! Tell me the truth, you shouldn't have something to do with the White Lotus Sect, right? This time, Goofy said it very solemnly, not at all as if he didn't care about anything.

Lao Zhu is speechless, we are also a dignified son of heaven. It won't be like some in later generations, and really have the nerves to rebel against themselves, right?

can see that Gao Fei is so serious, Lao Zhu can't help but want to tease him: "So what? Isn't it? Gao Fei couldn't see any clues from Zhu Yuanzhang's face.

In the end, he could only give up helplessly, walked over and sat on the chair next to Zhu Yuanzhang: "Lord Ben really can't see through you old boy, but I know that you are not an ordinary person." Sighing slowly, Gao Fei seemed to have made up his mind: "It's best if you're not a member of the White Lotus Sect." ”

"If so...... Lord Ben is not an official in charge of investigating the White Lotus Sect now. And you're just the bookkeeper selected from among the refugees. ”

"So if you leave all of a sudden, it doesn't have much to do with Lord Ben." Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know whether he should be happy or angry for a while.

Gao Fei is really righteous and angry, whether he knows it or not. In this situation, let a person from the White Lotus Sect stay in his yamen for so long.

And he also came into contact with things like accounts, and once these things were exposed, he would definitely not have any good fruit to eat.

And Gao Fei's words just now were almost already making it clear that if he was a member of the White Lotus Sect, then run away as soon as possible.

The other party will not come to arrest him, and may even help him hide some things. But as an official, this guy is simply unqualified!

Instead of sharing worries for the court, he let go of the thieves who endangered the court because of his personal righteousness.

If it weren't for Lao Zhu's understanding of what kind of person Gao Fei was, he might have directly cut him down as an official who neglected his duties.

"We're not." Lao Zhu didn't bother to continue to move Gao Fei. Tell him the truth directly, even if his brain is kicked by a donkey, it is impossible to participate in anything?

White Lotus Sect.

"That's the best." Gao Fei looked at the sky in the distance, and didn't know whether to believe Zhu Yuanzhang's words. As Lao Zhu said, someone from Jinyi came to the door that afternoon.

Ask Gao Fei to assist them in investigating all the people who have fled to Datong Mansion in the last five days. The household registration system of the Ming Dynasty is still quite strict, but in the case of such a huge disaster.

It is still difficult for a feudal dynasty to control the flow of people. In normal times, a village can testify to each other.

However, in this situation, many villages have suffered heavy casualties due to drought. Many of their relatives and friends have died, leaving them alone.

At such a time, no one can confirm whether what they say is true or false?

"Captain Deng, this is the registration list of the people who fled in Datong Mansion five days ago." Gao Fei took the initiative to take the three thick lists and handed them to the captain of Jinyiwei.

Even when handing over the list, he intentionally or unintentionally blocked Dean Zhu behind him. It seems that Gao Fei still didn't fully believe Zhu Yuanzhang's words.

Therefore, intentionally or unintentionally, Zhu Yuanzhang was prevented from coming into contact with these Jinyi guards. Lao Zhu didn't show his true identity in front of these brocade guards.

After all, the current situation is too special, and he can't guarantee that there will be no people from the White Lotus Sect in the Jinyi Guard.

Captain Deng, hand over the list to the subordinates next to him. stared at Gao Fei: "Lord Gao, I don't know if you have found any suspicious characters in the past few days?" When he heard this question, Gao Fei immediately thought of Zhu Yuanzhang.

However, he still shook his head in confusion: "We are receiving ordinary people fleeing here, and we still haven't found any particularly suspicious people." Saying that, Gao Fei smiled wryly and said, "At least on the surface, all the people who came were those poor people. Deng Yun was not very surprised by this answer: "The thieves of the White Lotus Sect like to hide among the people the most. ”

"Adults can't see it, and it's reasonable." Although there is no problem with the picture quality, Gao Fei always has a feeling that the captain of the brocade guard in front of him seems to be mocking himself.

Forget it, it's important now, so I won't be like these guys who look down on people.

After taking the roster, Gao Fei left with Jinyiwei's people to investigate everyone on the list, and he had already investigated Jinyiwei's anti-thieves.

This was a whole day, and it was not until the evening that Gao Fei dragged his tired body back to the yamen.

Obviously he looked tired, but Goofy's eyes were shining. The whole person also seems to be full of energy.

Queen Ma even cooked for Goofy herself.

"Thank you, sister-in-law." Gao Fei thanked Queen Ma with emotion. Zhu Yuanzhang next to him was dissatisfied: "Why do you thank your sister-in-law?" We're here too. Gao Fei gave him a big roll of his eyes: "All the dishes on this table are made by my sister-in-law, what does it have to do with you?" ”

"Because that's what I told your sister-in-law to do for you." Zhu Yuanzhang was not ashamed, but said proudly.
