Chapter 14: Zhu Yuanzhang secretly investigates Lord Ye, and Lord Ye investigates Zhu Yuanzhang!
Xiao Er can't remember how many people came to him to inquire about military and political news.
It can be said that it is a fairly familiar routine!
These people all went to the private room first, and then rewarded a lot of money, and then started by inquiring about indifferent business news, as well as relevant news about their Lord Ye.
After chatting a little, I began to inquire about the really valuable news, that is, confidential military and political news.
For such a person, he usually takes money and sells people!
Because Yanmen is located on the border, it can be said that they are fighting wits and courage with the Northern Yuan spies all the time, so they attach great importance to the 'anti-espionage' subject!
Therefore,
The super sense of anti-espionage has long been deeply planted in the bones of the people of Yanmen County, and if they feel that something is wrong, they will report it directly to the special agent team.
As for whether it is really a Beiyuan spy or not, that is a matter for the special agent team, and they have their own set of screening methods.
And most of these people have become their free labor force, which can also be called labor camps!
Just when Xiao Er was thinking about it like this, Zhu Yuanzhang answered his question with a deep look in his eyes: "We used to be veterans who followed His Majesty to fight the country, so we are a little interested in this aspect." ”
"Is there anything you can't say?"
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the teacup next to him, although he drank the tea, he couldn't feel the taste of the tea soup, because he focused all his attention on Xiao Er's next answer.
In his opinion, this is his main concern!
It is also a question that once he touches his bottom line, he must not be forgiven!
His bottom line is that 'the military and the government must be separated', and the civil affairs of the county government are under the control of the county lord, but the garrison of the jurisdiction must be under the jurisdiction of the generals appointed by the imperial court.
The military households' tuntian farming affairs and other civil affairs are under the jurisdiction of the county, but the military training and actions of the military households must not be at the mercy of the county magistrate.
But judging from the errand of managing the street security in the watchtower, it was simply a soldier's work as a servant.
If it was just that he Ye Qing discussed with the local generals and obtained the general's consent, then there would be nothing to say.
But once the county magistrate is overpowered, and the general obeys him, then there is no reason to talk about it, and he must die!
Just after Zhu Yuanzhang's voice fell, Xiao Er just smiled faintly.
In his opinion, this is the familiar routine.
Xiao Er just reminded in a friendly way: "I advise you to inquire less about military and political news, this is the border." ”
As for the consequences of their continued inquiry, he will not say anything, as long as he is worthy of the fifty taels of silver he earned.
As soon as the words fell, Xiao Er left by himself!
Not to mention that Zhu Yuanzhang can't call back, he Zhu Yuanzhang won't call anymore!
For no other reason,
Because he was basically sure that Ye Qing was involved in military affairs, it was very likely that he had committed Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo.
This is indeed a border place, and there are often Northern Yuan spies haunting, but he didn't ask too confidential things, they were just things on the surface.
Can't you even ask about this thing that is on the bright side and can be seen when you look up?
Isn't it a bit 'no silver three hundred taels here'!
Because Xiao Er is not only a common man in Yanmen, but also an employee of Ye Qing, the real boss of this hotel, he is even more suspicious of Ye Qing's involvement in military politics.
In his opinion, Ye Qing has done such a 'too much' anti-espionage piece, and it is very likely that in addition to the anti-Beiyuan spies, he is also guarding against micro-service private visits!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang fell into contemplation again, and his suspicious personality was completely betrayed by his eyes!
Of course, there are no outsiders here, and he can completely expose his true nature!
Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was deep in thought, and only sighed helplessly, she couldn't control Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicious character, and he had to figure everything out by himself.
Of course, as an emperor, being suspicious is not necessarily a bad thing, but Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion is really a bit 'too much'!
Besides, Queen Ma also thinks that Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line is not wrong!
Putting aside the crime of engaging in business as an official for the time being, it is already Zhu Yuanzhang's unprecedented decision.
He only hopes that Ye Qing will never open brothels and gambling houses as an official, once he gets involved in this kind of conscienceless business, it is enough to prove that his mind is completely wrong, and he should be killed!
If you dare to get involved in military and political affairs as a civilian official, you must also be killed!
These two bottom lines must not be stepped on!
But judging from the clues currently in hand, it is very likely that he Ye Qing will step on his Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line again.
To open a brothel and a gambling house in the territory, must you follow his instructions?
There's a lot of room for maneuvering!
A soldier does an errand for the service?
There are indeed too many twists and turns!
You have to do a good secret investigation, and after you find it out, it's time for a showdown with Ye Qing.
Whether to kill Ye Qing directly, or promote him to Beijing, and help him Zhu Yuanzhang clamp down on Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong, it depends on the results of the next secret investigation.
However, as far as Queen Ma is concerned, he still has a lot of confidence in Ye Qing.
If Ye Qing really violated the law in various ways, stepped on his Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line in various ways, and dared to write the assessment self-assessment as a self-report letter?
She didn't believe that anyone would really rush to die!
If you really want to die, there is no need to go to His Majesty the Emperor and beg for death!
It's not easy to want to die, why don't you just wipe your neck?
Wiping your neck by yourself is much easier than the death method given by Zhu Yuanzhang, it is completely a way to enjoy the level of death!
Because of this,
She still firmly believes that Ye Qing's purpose in writing such a self-report letter is the purpose she thought.
And the suspicion caused now can be said to be a misunderstanding.
Just clear up this misunderstanding!
Thinking of this, Queen Ma picked up the "Yanmen County Business Travel Guide" again, and looked straight at the red star drawn on the guide map, which is where the county government of Yanmen County is located!
Queen Ma looked at the red star, and her mind was full of what she had seen and heard that was enough to represent Ye Qing's outstanding political achievements.
"Ye Qing,"
"Don't let your majesty down!"
Just as the two of them were pondering separately, all the meals they ordered in the box of the beef shop and had nothing to do with the cow were served.
Smelling the aroma of the food, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma's thinking was directly interrupted.
Suddenly, a large portion of 'roast beef with radish' was carried past their door.
Smelling the smell of meat that they had never smelled before, the eyes of the three of them looked straight over, and the dishes in front of them suddenly lost some of their taste.
A moment later,
After Zhu Yuanzhang secretly swallowed his saliva, he was ready to start eating with cold eyebrows.
But he looked at the two people on his left and right, and the sentence 'no interest' was about to burst out.
But he finally looked at Mao Xiang and rebuked him solemnly: "That's it? ”
"Eat,"
"Let's go out with us after eating!"
Just as they were frowning and moving, the captain of the agent detachment who was responsible for monitoring Zhu Yuanzhang and his party found the shopkeeper and asked for details.
Sure enough, they wanted to inquire about military and political news.
And Xiao Er's sentence "Especially the big man, when it comes to military and political affairs, there is light in his eyes, and he is still the kind of thief", which helped the secret service detachment a lot, and also helped Zhu Yuanzhang and his party 'a big favor'!
"Don't expose you, take care of people!"
"I'll go see Lord Ye in person!" ......
