Under the morning light, the two usually conspicuous big stone lions on both sides of the county government gate are no longer conspicuous at this moment.

Because all the officials of the county government not only stood at the gate, but also blocked the stone lions behind them, and only the top parts of the heads of the two lions could be seen!

The reason why there are so many more officials in Yanmen County than in other places is that the management methods they implement are too different from the regulations of the imperial court.

There are as many as 18 female officials working in the major tax windows alone, and it is conceivable how many officials there are in Yanmen County.

But although there are many of them, none of them are idle, it can be said that it is the configuration of the official family, but it is the income model of private enterprises.

When the people in the past looked at this scene, they only thought it was very strange.

"Is this a group portrait?"

"The officials wear official uniforms, the officials wear official uniforms, and they stand so neatly, they must be preparing to paint the portrait of the county government!"

"No, why are they painting group portraits?"

"This still needs to be asked, didn't you see Lord Ye come out in an official uniform? It must be Lord Ye who is going to be promoted and leave office, and draw a souvenir for Lord Ye! ”

“.”

The more everyone guessed, the more it looked like that, and there were even many people who wiped their tears directly.

But after looking at it for a long time, they didn't see the artist come out with the equipment, and then they realized that maybe this was not the case.

Just when they were curious, a majestic voice came from the south of the street.

"Lord Chin has arrived!"

Everyone looked south, only to see the south gate guard riding a horse to open the way, and the eunuch who was carrying a yellow cloth burden followed closely behind.

And behind them, there were dozens of brocade guards wearing brocade clothes and gold armor.

The people looked at this scene, and then they knew that they were thinking too much, and it turned out that all the officials of the county government were standing outside the gate to welcome the holy decree of His Majesty the Emperor.

But even if it is not a commemorative group portrait, as soon as the holy decree of promotion arrives, they Lord Ye should leave office!

Thinking of this, they still secretly wiped their tears, but they cried with joy like 'joy and mourning'!

Ye Qing looked at the upcoming 'Homecoming Key', and while secretly happy, he also felt a little big.

If these people knew that he was given death instead of being promoted, I don't know what crazy things they would do.

"I have to find a way to keep these people from 'rebelling'!"

“.”

Just when Ye Qing had just thought of a way, the eunuch turned over and dismounted, and took out the scroll of the holy decree with good wax seal from the yellow cloth baggage.

He first held up the decree and signaled that the wax seal was intact.

At the same time, he was also secretly scolding the eunuch who came to deliver the decree last time: "It's just nonsense, why is Lord Ye rude, why should I be careful?" ”

"This is the general opening the way, and the whole gate is welcome, giving His Majesty enough courtesy, and also giving my father-in-law enough face."

"If such a sensible Lord Ye is not promoted, it is simply intolerable!"

“.”

After a while, the eunuch removed the wax seal in public, and then pulled the seal in the sunlight with the golden dragon embroidered on the back.

"The magistrate of Yanmen County, Ye Qing takes the order!"

Ye Qing took a step forward, but bowed slightly: "Minister, Ye Qing takes the order." ”

At the same time, all the officials of Yanmen County knelt down together.

The eunuch looked at this scene, and his eyebrows were slightly wrinkled subconsciously, why didn't Lord Ye kneel?

While Ye Qing maintained a slight bowing posture, the corners of his mouth also raised a smug arc.

He must be proud!

He has been mixed for ten lifetimes in ancient times, and he still adheres to the bottom line that modern people only kneel to their parents and ancestors, but not to feudal emperors!

This is very difficult, it is even more difficult than a stunning beauty in a macho island, maintaining a virgin body for a hundred years!

Just when Ye Qing was secretly complacent, the eunuch thought about the legend about Lord Ye, so he turned a blind eye.

"Fengtian carrier, the emperor said:"

"Ye Qing, the magistrate of Yanmen County, has been an official for three years, dignified and close to the people, self-disciplined and law-abiding and has good governance, and Wenchen will support the army and not involve the army, I am very relieved."

"Special, the official is promoted to the sixth grade, and he is promoted to the fourth grade 'Ningbo Prefect'!"

"Yanmen County Cheng Wu Yong, for three years as an official, assisted by meritorious, special, official promotion to four grades, promoted to the sixth grade 'Ningbo Mansion General Judgment'!"

"The rest of the officials in Yanmen County will stay in office, and they should be rewarded, and they will be issued after the new magistrate arrives!"

"Chincis!"

Just as the eunuch's voice fell, everyone present boiled.

Although the onlookers were sad that Lord Ye was about to leave office, they were even more happy that Lord Ye had been promoted to six grades in a row.

The same is true of the officials of the county government, who are really happier than being admitted to the top prize.

Wu Yong, in particular, laughed out loud with joy!

He walked in front of Ye Qing and faced the direction of Ying Tianfu, and he bowed and bowed: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Longen, and the ministers are grateful!" ”

"Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"

At this moment, everyone was chanting 'Long live Your Majesty', but Ye Qing was the only one standing there like a sculpture, neither happy nor sad.

The eunuch looked at Ye Qingdao, who was like petrification: "Lord Ye, you still haven't received the decree to thank you?" ”

As soon as the eunuch's voice fell, the scene instantly fell silent.

Because everyone noticed that they Lord Ye was standing there expressionless without saying anything, and he didn't even blink his eyes.

Judging from his unresponsive performance, it is impossible to tell whether he is happy or unhappy now.

But even so, no one thought in the direction of being unhappy, they just thought that they Lord Ye was too flattered.

Oh, yes!

Even the promotion of the sixth grade cannot be said to be a miracle of this dynasty, it is simply five hundred years, and only he Ye Qing can do it.

In fact, long before the arrival of the holy decree, they had a lot of guesses, but no matter how they guessed, that is, they would be promoted to three grades in a row, and they would mix with Zhizhou first!

But I never expected that he would be directly promoted to six products in a row to become the prefect!

Thinking of this, they only felt that they were underestimating the handiwork of the founding emperor!

Wu Yong, who was kneeling on the ground, looked at Ye Qing, who was still expressionless as petrified, and immediately frowned and pulled the corner of his clothes: "Lord Ye, why are you still stunned?" ”

"Don't hurry up and kneel down to receive the order and thank you!"

The other officials also whispered to remind Ye Qing and asked him to quickly kneel down to receive the order.

His Majesty the Emperor is already very interesting, if he is not satisfied, it is his Ye Qing's fault.

Ye Qing listened to these voices reminding him, and looked at the holy decree in front of him, his eyes were really full of fire, if he could breathe fire, he would definitely burn all the holy decrees brought by Qin Cha!

That is, the sum of hundreds of years of life experience allowed him to barely be happy and angry at this moment of anger!

Finally, Ye Qing glanced down slightly, kneeling on the ground and tugging at the corner of his clothes.

He just kicked his ass with an expressionless face, and Wu Yong directly pounced in front of the eunuch and hugged his feet!

"No bones!"

"That's it?"

"Okay, congratulations to Lord Wu on his ascension!"

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing turned around decisively, and strode back to the house with his hands behind his back.

On the way back to the mansion alone, Ye Qing frowned, and couldn't figure out what it was for, was this a part-time Qin Mission, Master Guo went back and lied, or was the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty blind?

"I have been an official for three years, I have only worn official clothes five times, and the total time I have been in the government for less than a month, and I am still screaming at the people, how can I be 'dignified and close to the people'?"

"I have been an official for three years, I have changed the rules privately, and I have my own system, so I almost said that I would be the emperor behind closed doors, how could I 'discipline myself and abide by the law and have good results'?"

"I admit that there are some achievements, but I can discipline myself and abide by the law, where do you see it?"

"Wenchen will admit it, but where can I see that I support the army and not involve the army?"

"If I didn't want to go home, I would bombard Yingtian as soon as I gave the order, do you believe it or not?"

"It's just nonsense, it's just talking nonsense with your eyes open."

In the bedroom, Ye Qing simply pulled out his official uniform while complaining in his heart.

But as soon as he changed into his regular clothes, he immediately realized that the content of the decree was not the point at all!

It's been the same throughout the ages, as long as the superior wants to promote someone, he can make up 10,000 reasons, even if he knows that he is talking nonsense with his eyes open, it just goes through a process anyway.

The point of this matter is that he obviously committed a serious crime of evading agricultural taxes, but he was promoted six times in a row!

This seemingly completely unreasonable result is the focus of his attention!

Thinking of this, Ye Qing instantly calmed down again, and then began to think about what was going on.

"Mr. and Mrs. Guo will not and dare not deceive Zhu Yuanzhang, so Zhu Yuanzhang must know all my good and bad things."

"He can issue such a holy decree, it must be the result of his weighing the pros and cons!"

"But my crime of evading agricultural taxes is also unforgivable!"

"Unless, he listened to the advice of others!"

"Yes, he must have listened to the persuasion of others, and first sent someone to secretly investigate why I evaded agricultural taxes!"

“.”

Thinking of this, Ye Qing also sighed helplessly.

His original plan was to use the intuitive result of evading agricultural taxes to make Zhu Yuanzhang angry, and then kill him in a fit of anger.

Of course, with his temper, it will also affect Liu Wencheng, the prefect of Taiyuan, and other colleagues.

But they don't want to die, they will definitely tell the things about the granary of war preparedness, the granary of disaster preparedness, and the granary of realization.

So many officials shouted injustice, so many officials said about this matter, as long as Zhu Yuanzhang is not a fool, he will temporarily put down the butcher knife and check it first.

After the matter is clarified, he will definitely forgive Liu Wencheng for not saying anything, and there will be a corresponding reward.

With such a result, it can be regarded as that he Ye Qing is worthy of them.

Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang may also regret killing him Ye Qing by mistake, but there is no regret medicine in the world, and he Ye Qing has returned to modern times.

And so many of his 'legacy' in this era are compensation and gratitude to Zhu Yuanzhang.

This is his Ye Qing's plan to use the agricultural tax to go home, a perfect plan that only kills himself, without affecting his bosses, colleagues and subordinates.

As long as this plan is successful, it is a perfect plan.

What a pity!

I don't know which annoying guy persuaded Zhu Yuanzhang who was angry, so that his perfect plan ended in failure!

Ye Qing didn't want to delve into who this annoying guy was, whether it was Queen Ma or Zhu Biao, anyway, the result of his plan was a failure, and it was just a waste of brains to think about who the murderer was.

What he has to think about now is how to continue to look for death.

He, Ye Qing, will never compromise, and he will never give up.

After spending hundreds of years in this ancient world where there was nothing, he was really tired of it!

Just when Ye Qing was thinking about what to do next, the eunuch outside the gate of the county government was also pacified by Wu Yong and others.

Of course, the reason why Wu Yong was able to appease them, in addition to Wu Yong's own ability, was because of the legend that Ye Qing used the holy decree to pat the sycophants and not die.

The eunuch suppressed his anger and said, "Lord Wu, Lord Ye's sentence is dismissed, what does it mean?" ”

"Isn't he satisfied?"

Wu Yong explained while welcoming the eunuch and others to the front office to rest: "It shouldn't be what you think, I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer." ”

"Come on, serve tea, serve snacks!"

A moment later, tea and refreshments arrived.

The tea is real tea, and the dim sum is also a real dim sum, but next to the dim sum, there is a treasure bill with a denomination of 'one hundred guan'.

Where had the eunuch who followed Zhu Yuanzhang seen so much money, and immediately smiled and said, "Don't worry, Lord Wu will go and ask first." ”

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has explained in private, if Lord Ye thinks there is anything wrong, as long as it is not too much, he can bring it up."

When Wu Yong heard this, he immediately figured out the true meaning of their Lord Ye's sentence 'This is gone'.

Yes, it's a simple and crude literal meaning!

It has to be that they Lord Ye is talented, and they take the superior to death, and there is really room to increase their value.

After all, it's still his appetite that is small!

"Father-in-law, wait a minute, the lower official will go and ask Lord Ye, what does he mean?"

As soon as Wu Yong's voice fell, he decisively turned around and went to Ye Qing's study.

Just when Wu Yong came to the study, Ye Qing also thought of the next way to find death!

In fact, when he kicked Wu Yong, he said, 'This is gone', which didn't mean anything else, just a simple angry sentence.

But now he is ready to make this sentence a little interesting!

After Wu Yong entered the study, he saluted and said, "Lord Ye, are you still not satisfied?" ”

"Six grades in a row, it's no longer down!"

"Not only that, but I can continue to follow you without resigning, Your Majesty has thought it through, and it can already be said that the emperor's grace is mighty."

"But I know I still have too little appetite!"

Speaking of this, Wu Yong said with a smile: "The eunuch just said that before he left, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had an explanation, if you have any other conditions, as long as it is not too excessive, you can bring it up!" ”

Ye Qing only raised the corners of his mouth slightly after hearing this, and he had to say that this Zhu Biao was really like in the historical records, he was a Ming Jun's material.

Others are in the court, just based on the news they learned from Master Guo and Xu Da, they can be such a Lixian corporal, if he Ye Qing doesn't go home, maybe he can really save his life!

In the next moment, Ye Qing decisively dispelled this idea again, there is no if, there is absolutely no if!

Thinking of this, Ye Qing was ready to unswervingly implement his next plan to find death, that is, the plan to make the sentence 'this is gone' a little interesting.

Ye Qing looked at Wu Yong, and just sneered and said, "Yes, your appetite is too small." ”

"Take off your official skin, put on regular clothes, and accompany the official to talk about the conditions."

After a while, Wu Yong, who was dressed in civilian clothes, accompanied Ye Qing to the front hall.

In the eyes of the eunuch, Ye Qing's official uniform changed to normal clothes, not to mention, he was still sitting on Erlang's legs, and when he was greeted by the previous mansion, it was completely like a different person.

A discerning person can see at a glance that he is not satisfied with this holy decree!

But what else can you be dissatisfied with if you are promoted to six products in a row?

After Ye Qing picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, he leaned on the back of the chair, not looking at the eunuch at all.

He just said in a leisurely tone: "It only took three years for this official to turn this impoverished land into such a rich place!" ”

"Although this official is a corrupt official, you go and see, those Qing officials who can't get the money to buy a coffin for their father and mother, who has such outstanding political achievements?"

"Not to mention anything else, just double the grain output with this official, and there will be more than one four-grade prefect!"

"Also, this official made suggestions for the Northern Expedition, not to mention the merit of defending the city, I will give this merit of defending the city to Your Majesty!"

"Find the jade seal of the country, this official always has a credit!"

"It's just a four-grade prefect, what about sending it to Hanako?"

Saying that, Ye Qing pointed to the direction of Ying Tianfu even more excitedly and said, "Can he Zhu Yuanzhang pick the door a little more?" ”

"No, this official should give him a minimum of respect, and he should be honored as His Majesty the Emperor, but he is so cold to the official's heart, why should the official give him a minimum of respect?"

Speaking of this, Ye Qing leaned forward again, looking directly into the eyes of the eunuch who passed the decree, his eyes were full of playfulness: "You say, is this official right?" ”

The eunuch just smiled awkwardly, he didn't dare to answer at all.

Now he only felt that the last eunuch was too right, and it was really a torment to come here to deliver the decree!

The eunuch just whispered: "Lord Ye, you can't say that, if you look forward for five hundred years, which official can be promoted to six grades at a time?" ”

"Not in the past five hundred years, and absolutely impossible in the next five hundred years!"

"Lord Ye, this official position is really not small!"

"Of course, your meritorious deeds are indeed great enough, but in order to commend you, Your Majesty also held a special court meeting to commend you in front of hundreds of officials!"

As he spoke, the eunuch said with a flattering smile: "Lord Ye, as the saying goes, a tree must be watered from the roots, you can't eat it into a fat doll in one bite, you have a bright future, come step by step!" ”

Ye Qing knew that the eunuchs who could get in front of the emperor and pass on the decree for the emperor were all first-class smart people.

But this kind of remark similar to the boss in his previous life who said, 'Young people don't just look at the present', is completely in front of him, an old fox who has lived for hundreds of years.

Besides, he is not uncommon to see the future here, he just wants to get back to the glittering modern metropolis as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Ye Qing nodded again, looking like he was giving the emperor a face.

"Okay!"

"Then the official will give His Majesty a face, and the prefect of Ningbo will be the prefect of Ningbo!"

"However, this official has two additional conditions, if His Majesty agrees, this official will accept the order to take up the post, but if he does not agree, he will either take off the official's black gauze hat, or take off the official's head!"

When Wu Yong heard this, he was so frightened that his legs almost weakened.

He just wanted to ask Ye Qing now, do you really want to play so big?

In Wu Yong's eyes, when Ye Qing said, 'I have taken off this neck of this official's head', not only his eyes were like torches, his eyes were firm, but his tone was several points heavier, he was simply afraid that the eunuch would not be able to remember the decree and convey it in place!

The eyes of the eunuch were full of horror at this moment, he had never seen such a fateful negotiation method in his life!

"Lord Ye, can you tell me about your two additional conditions?"

Ye Qing just shook his head and said: "The two additional conditions of this official are simple and simple, and they are complicated and complicated, and it is easy to make mistakes in oral transmission. ”

"This official will write it out, and then take it back to His Majesty!"

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing immediately asked someone to bring the four treasures of the study, and then wrote his two additional conditions smoothly.

He writes very quickly, and he can do it on a piece of paper, which is enough to see that there are not many words.

The fact that he can express himself clearly in just a few words is enough to show that his two additional conditions are indeed very simple, but they are also full of 'professional terms' that the eunuch can't understand, which is enough to show that it is not so simple!

Although the eunuch couldn't understand it, Wu Yong, who had studied with Ye Qing for three years, understood it at once.

After Wu subconsciously swallowed his saliva, he looked at Ye Qing with puzzled eyes and said, "Lord Ye, do you really want to mention these two additional conditions, and do you really want to take your head as a bet?" ”

Ye Qing said firmly: "Of course! ”

As soon as the words fell, Ye Qing handed over the sealed letter to the eunuch and directly issued an order to expel the guest.

After the eunuch and his party left, Wu Yong also turned around decisively, looking anxious.

"Why are you going?"

Wu Yong turned his back to Ye Qing and said solemnly: "Xiaguan understands what the adults mean, you are not negotiating, you are deliberately negotiating." ”

"Xiaguan finally knows how big the appetite of the adults is, Xiaguan will go to the arsenal, let them step up production, and then mobilize to rebel!"

When Ye Qing heard this, his eyes widened instantly.

He hurriedly stopped Wu Yong and said, "Don't mess around, this official doesn't mean that!" ”

"Have you forgotten the teachings of your own officials?"

"Although Your Majesty is short-sighted and has many shortcomings, he has made great contributions to Huaxia, and he should sit in this position."

"Besides, what's so good about being an emperor, I'm tired like a dog day and night, how can I live a comfortable life?"

"I just want to raise my value, I just want to make a little more!"

"This is a negotiation skill, do you understand?"

"Don't worry, I guarantee that Your Majesty will definitely agree to my two additional conditions, and when the time comes, the two of us will happily go to the post together!"

Under Ye Qing's bitter deception, Wu Yong believed Ye Qing's words again.

He just nodded thoughtfully and said, "If Your Majesty agrees, it will indeed be the best." ”

"But will Your Majesty agree to such an excessive condition?"

"If I were Your Majesty, even if you Ye Qing were the Heavenly King, I would cut it right, your two additional conditions are too much!"

Ye Qing waved his hand and said, "You have said that if you are Your Majesty, how can there be so many ifs in the world?" ”

"My two additional conditions, in your opinion, are excessive, but in the eyes of Your Majesty, they are not too excessive, don't worry, I have proportion!"

Wu Yong listened to such a sentence and felt that it was indeed very reasonable.

Not bad

People are in different positions, different heights, and the bottom line is naturally different.

There are many things in this world that really can't be considered in their shoes, and if you don't get to that position, you really can't think of so much!

But when he thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with this, but for a while, he couldn't figure out what was wrong!

Nearly a month later, in the afternoon,

The eunuch who passed the decree took the holy decree that was opened but not handed over, and came back to Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the imperial study, the eunuch who passed the decree painted his voice and color, and restored the scene of the decree in front of Zhu Yuanzhang as much as possible, as well as Ye Qing's original words that were dissatisfied with the holy decree.

Zhu Yuanzhang just listened to these words, and he was already so angry that his fists were clenched, and his toes were clenched.

"By the way, Your Majesty,"

"Lord Ye said that as long as you promise him two additional conditions, he will gladly accept the order to go to the post."

As soon as the words fell, the eunuch knelt on his knees and held the letter with both hands.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the six words [His Majesty the Emperor's personal opening] on the cover of the letter, and his eyes immediately jumped slightly.

This familiar handwriting is really like a face, and it is very popular when you look at it!

"Okay,"

"Let's see if this guy's dog can spit out two tusks from his dog's mouth!"

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang's voice fell, he took the letter and tore the envelope quite simply, even his posture of pulling the letter paper was very rough.

I saw him holding a corner, and he opened the letter with a slam throw!

I ask the officials to follow up on the support, and ask for the support of recommended tickets and monthly passes, thank you!
