In the eyes of the eunuch, Zhu Yuanzhang only glanced at it roughly, and then directly stared at him like a cow's eyes.

Not only that, but his nostrils also contracted and dilated as the amount of air in and out increased.

And the golden silk dragon head on his chest also rose and fell with the ups and downs of his chest, like an angry golden dragon!

"Bastard!"

"Okay, Lao Tzu will take off his neck!"

"No, Lao Tzu wants to cut him two hundred and fifty knives, and then take off his head!"

"Can't you get back the jade seal of the country?"

"Just based on the conditions of these two bastards he mentioned, Lao Tzu will kill him alive if he says anything!"

Outside the imperial study, the eunuchs on both sides of the palace hurriedly took a few steps back.

Just as they were retreating, the handwritten letter written by Ye Qing was pinched into a lump and thrown out.

At the same time, the eunuch also crawled out, and his face was as white as a dead man.

"Message,"

"Hurry up and give me a message!"

"Let Mao Xiang take the best imperial doctor to Yanmen, and if he doesn't finish two hundred and fifty knives, he will not be allowed to die!"

“.”

The princes who were waiting outside didn't dare to go in and say, 'Slaves and maids obey the order', so they directly turned around and went to the Yamen of the Jinyi Guard's commanding envoy.

But before he could get out of the imperial study, he met Queen Ma in the corridor.

Wang Gonggong looked at the crystal clear glass teapot in Queen Ma's hand, which also contained chrysanthemums, wolfberries, cassia seeds and other medicinal materials.

He only felt that this health tea that cleared the liver and cleared the fire and nourished yin and brightened the purpose was just right for the current Zhu Yuanzhang.

But the words "Produced by Yanmen Glass Factory" on the glass teapot can definitely add fuel to the fire!

"Niangniang, you'd better change the teapot!"

As soon as the words fell, the prince bowed, and then lowered his head and prepared to pass by Queen Ma.

Who is Queen Ma?

He couldn't hear what this eunuch meant?

Obviously, Ye Qing, who is not worry-free, has made her family angry again!

Queen Ma stopped the princess and said, "Why did Your Majesty let you go?" ”

Wang Gonggong whispered: "The person who went to Yanmen County to deliver the decree has returned, but Lord Ye did not accept the decree, as if he was not satisfied with the reward, so he put forward two additional conditions. ”

"After Your Majesty knows these two additional conditions, he will let the slave and maid go to deliver the decree, to kill Lord Ye alive, and also to let General Mao bring the best imperial doctor over, and not to let Lord Ye die before the chopping is finished."

"Niangniang, Your Majesty is really angry, and he really wants to kill Lord Ye!"

Queen Ma just looked at the princess in front of her, and he knew what the chief of the inner house was thinking.

As the emperor's permanent eunuch, he naturally couldn't take the initiative to tell her about it, so he could only use this way to let her take the initiative to ask.

This can be regarded as earning a performance in front of her!

It's hard for these people, and I'm afraid of offending the emperor, I don't want to offend the queen, and I don't want to offend the prince!

Queen Ma smiled lightly: "You walked over slowly to pass the message, understand?" ”

The prince nodded and said, "The slave obeys!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the prince walked on the way to deliver the decree, but he walked very slowly, and his steps were very small, even smaller than small steps.

At the same time, Queen Ma strode towards the imperial study.

At the door of the imperial study, she saw the piece of paper that was thrown out again, just by looking at the piece of paper, she could imagine how much effort Zhu Yuanzhang used when he pinched the paper into a lump.

After Queen Ma picked up the piece of letterhead, she also carefully opened it for a long time, and then completely pulled away the letter.

The content of the letter: "Your Majesty the Emperor:"

"The credit of the minister is too great, but the official position given by His Majesty is too small, which is no different from an unscrupulous boss who wants the horses to run and does not give the horses graze!"

"But the minister is not a stingy person who does not suffer at all, as long as His Majesty agrees to the minister's two conditions, the minister will gladly accept the order and go to the post!"

Queen Ma just saw this, and she felt a little angry.

The opening sentence of the letter was written so rebelliously, what else did she use to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang?

After Queen Ma took a deep breath, she calmed her breath and had the 'courage' to continue watching.

"Yanmen County can have today, thanks to the minister's painstaking efforts for three years, every grass and tree is condensed with the minister's hard work, not only that, the minister also has many industries there, some are wholly-owned by the minister, and some are partnered with others."

"Therefore, no matter where the minister goes, he cannot completely dissociate himself from Yanmen County."

"The first condition is that although the minister is the prefect of Ningbo Prefecture, he also leads Yanmen County from afar, which means that the new magistrate can be the master of small matters, but the minister must be the master of major matters!"

"And the second condition is the establishment of a 'Ningbo Special Executive Government', as for the specific special law, wait for the ministers to take office, anyway, there are many privileges."

"Your Majesty, don't get me wrong, the minister has no objection, and he doesn't want to be the emperor behind closed doors."

"The reason why there is this second condition is only because the minister feels that many of His Majesty's systems and laws are problematic, which will seriously hinder local construction and economic development."

"Only by agreeing to this second condition and moving a new place can we create brilliance and become bigger and stronger!"

"Paragraph 1: If Your Majesty doesn't agree, it's Ye Qing, a grass man who would rather die than accept the order!"

"Payment 2: If Your Majesty agrees, it will be Ye Qing, the world's most corrupt official!"

In the eyes of the little eunuch who was waiting outside,

While Queen Ma's eyebrows were furrowed, she also pressed her temples with her hands, looking like she had a splitting headache.

Not only that, but the corners of his mouth twitched, and with his other hand, he squeezed the letter paper that he had finally pulled away into a lump.

The little eunuch looked at this scene, and also looked at the piece of letter paper in Queen Ma's hand with his spare eyes, and his eyes were full of curiosity.

It is said that Lord Ye has the ability, and a letter can make His Majesty the Emperor angry!

Now it seems that the ability of this legendary Lord Ye is far more than that, and even the queen has a headache when she sees it, and she has the meaning of getting angry.

Not bad

Although Queen Ma is kind, she is also a temperamental person, and it is just a very difficult thing to make her lose her temper.

And the difficulty of making Queen Ma angry is much greater than the difficulty of making Zhu Yuanzhang angry!

Thinking of this, the little eunuch was even more curious about the contents of the letterhead!

But he also knew that he was just a little eunuch, and the contents of this letter paper, which was pinched into lumps by the emperor and empress one after another, was not something he could spy on!

At this moment, Queen Ma quickly calmed down again.

She did not go into the study, but went to the corner of the courtyard and opened the letter again.

This time, she was extremely calm, reading the letter word by word, and thinking about why while reading it.

Judging from her understanding of Ye Qing, at least one sentence in Ye Qing's letter is true, that is, he has no objection, at least now.

Why does a minister who has no objection write such a letter that seeks death?

Is it really just to find death?

is still the same sentence, a person who has suffered a lot may look for death, but how can a person like him who races immortals in a day look for death?

Thinking of this, Queen Ma began to use another layer of meaning to explain the two conditions proposed by Ye Qing.

Finally, she self-righteously figured out the true meaning of Ye Qing's two conditions!

After she thought through everything self-righteously, she walked into Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial study.

In Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, he saw Queen Ma coming with health tea, but as soon as he saw the words "Produced by Yanmen Glass Factory" on the glass teapot, it exploded directly.

"Take it, let's not drink it!"

"Don't persuade anything, let's just eat the scales, and we are hard-hearted!"

"I'm so angry that Lao Tzu is incoherent, Lao Tzu is not a king!"

Queen Ma didn't speak, just put the health tea in front of him, and then poured tea for him by herself.

Queen Ma just picked up the teacup with both hands and said, "Your Majesty, please use tea!" ”

"You"

Zhu Yuanzhang is really hot, if he changed to other concubines, he would have thrown out all the cups a long time ago.

But the person in front of him was not other concubines, but his sister-in-law, there was no choice but to take the cup, like drinking medicine, and poured it down.

"Okay, the tea is already drunk, you can go!"

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang walked towards the dragon chair behind the dragon case.

But as soon as he sat down, he found that Queen Ma was sitting opposite him, and he didn't mean to leave without making it clear.

"The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, and you also take our words as a deaf ear, don't you?"

Queen Ma smiled lightly: "It seems that the rumors are true, Your Majesty is really a person when you want people, and you are not a person when you don't want people?" ”

"When you need me, I'm your female Zhuge , and when you don't need me, you're not allowed to interfere in politics in the harem?"

"Okay, I won't talk to you about politics, I'll talk to you about this tea."

"You look at the cup from Yanmen County and dislike it so much, but you forget that the tea in it is made by me who personally selected the medicinal materials and boiled the water myself."

"Your Majesty, please take matters into account, this is just a vessel for water, it is not sinful!"

Zhu Yuanzhang pursed his mouth, and said with a speechless and helpless look: "Okay, you say, you persuade, let's listen, but if you can't listen to it, it's our business." ”

"As for the two conditions mentioned by that bastard, it is completely to go to Ningbo Mansion to be the emperor behind closed doors, and to be the soil emperor of Yanmen County, this is to eat one end, and refuse to lose the other!"

"Can we agree?"

"If we agree, the year name will not be called Hongwu, just call it 'weak benevolence'!"

Queen Ma just smiled softly and lightly: "Your Majesty, you have forgotten that his letter is so virtuous, at first glance, it seems to be angry, but if you look closely, it is really such a truth." ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he immediately remembered the two letters that Ye Qing wrote to him, and that was really the case.

But he still insisted on his opinion: "This time and that time! ”

"That's because he didn't have such a big credit before, but now that he has a big credit, people are arrogant, and they can't be the same!"

Queen Ma nodded and said, "Your Majesty, that's because of your temper, so you didn't think about it in that direction." ”

"His first condition, in fact, really means that Xinzhi County, which was sent by the imperial court, without his talent, would not be able to keep the prosperity of Yanmen County, and would be corrupted by the existing prosperity and become a big corrupt official with no bottom line."

"It is said that it is difficult to fight the country, and it is even more difficult to defend the country!"

"Qin Shi Huang unified the country, and Qin II defeated the country, that's the reason!"

"Can you guarantee that if the new county is sent to a magistrate, he will not secretly join Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong?"

"They're all staring at this piece of fat!"

"Let Ye Qingyao lead it, not only can Yanmen be prosperous, but isn't this piece of fat still in the hands of your Emperor Majesty?"

"Although he seems to be a big rebel, is he really a big rebel?"

Under Queen Ma's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up again, he just pondered in this direction, and immediately felt that there was still a three-point truth.

Thinking back to the bits and pieces that he, 'Master Guo', has experienced in Yanmen County, the more I think about it, the more it makes sense!

In the next moment, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Queen Ma again and smiled: "Come, our female Zhuge , tell me what does it mean to look at his second condition?" ”

Queen Ma just crossed her waist and turned around and said, "Becoming a female Zhuge again?" What about the harem that is said to be not allowed to interfere in politics? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly bypassed the dragon case, casually moved a chair, sat in front of Queen Ma and said: "Let's say that the queen's mother is not allowed to interfere in politics, and we didn't say that female Zhuge is not allowed to interfere in politics." ”

"Besides, this is to help us analyze things, and the final decision is not for us to make!"

Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's serious scoundrel appearance, and she was also angry and funny, the key is that she still likes Zhu Chongba like this.

It can only be said that this is Zhou Yu beating Huang Gai, one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

Besides, this is what she wants, as long as her family is willing to listen, this matter will be slowed down.

Queen Ma continued: "His second condition is also very reasonable! ”

"Think about it, if he comes according to the tax system of the imperial court, how can the Qinglou and gambling houses in Yanmen County pay so much tax?"

"If he doesn't charge tolls for merchants and horses, where can he get such a good road?"

"If he really strictly follows the rules that officials are not allowed to engage in business, how can he make so much money?"

"If there is no such income, how can the city wall of Yanmen Pass and the houses of Yanmen County be repaired so well?"

"Not to mention anything else, the [Yanmen Nursing Home] that you want to learn from after watching it, and the [Yanmen Arsenal] that only spends money and doesn't make money, aren't they all supported by these incomes?"

“.”

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to Queen Ma's words, and nodded reluctantly: "You are right, we also know that many of our systems and regulations are not as good as his ideas." ”

"If he, Ye Qing, is a person who strictly follows our rules, he may leave a reputation as a clean official, but there is definitely no Yanmen County today."

Empress Ma held Zhu Yuanzhang's hand and said: "Chongba, the emperor is also a human being, and the reason why the emperor is called a saint is not because he understands everything, let alone because he can't make mistakes, but because he can generously admit his shortcomings." ”

"Even if you can't admit it verbally in front of your ministers for the sake of face, you can still admit and improve it in action!"

Saying that, Queen Ma continued: "You agreed to his second condition, which is to recognize and improve in action!" ”

"And the reason why he put forward this second condition is just to reach a wordless tacit understanding with you, one is to admit that he did the right thing in Yanmen County with actions, and let him do it in Ningbo Mansion!"

"Actually, Ye Yeqing did this, which can be regarded as thinking about you."

"The way of a corrupt official, after all, is only suitable for him, a person with principles and a bottom line!"

"The word corrupt official, it is wrong to say that the sky is broken, just because the person who implements the way of corrupt officials is he Ye Qing, so it is right!"

"Therefore, agreeing to his second condition, the establishment of the 'Ningbo Special Executive Government', and recognizing some of his Ye Qing's personal privileges, is also equivalent to announcing to the world that you, Zhu Yuanzhang, do not recognize corrupt officials, but only recognize his Ye Qing's personal way of being corrupt officials, if others dare to follow and be corrupt officials, then there is only a dead end!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised: "In this way, he still thinks about us?" ”

As soon as the words fell, he just rolled his eyes, nodded again, and said, "It seems that this is really the case!" ”

As he spoke, he took Ye Qing's handwritten letter from Queen Ma's hand, continued to read it word by word, and read it carefully.

This time, it's not so annoying.

Just looking at Ye Qing's first and second paragraphs, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tremble.

Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the inscription: "Look at this inscription, Your Majesty does not agree, is it Ye Qing, a grass man who would rather die than accept the order?" ”

"What do you mean, this is a threat with our lives?"

"And this payment two, if Your Majesty agrees, it will be Ye Qing, the world's most corrupt official?"

"Even if it is just to write a sentence, if Your Majesty agrees, it will be Ye Qing, the world's most loyal minister, and we can still be a little relieved!"

"This dog thing really can't spit out ivory from his mouth, if he continues like this, either he will die in our hands, or we will be angry with him!"

“.”

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang mentioned Ye Qing, he began to pant like a cow again.

And this handwritten letter from Ye Qing was also pinched into a lump for the third time.

Queen Ma picked up the piece of paper again, and after pulling it away, she burned it clean.

At the same time, she couldn't help but secretly say in her heart: "It's really annoying, if I don't come, he will really die in your hands." ”

Thinking of this, Queen Ma had another firm thought.

Ningbo is so close, there will be many opportunities to meet in the future, she has to find an opportunity to teach Ye Qing what it means to speak 'human words'.

If he continued to speak in front of the emperor, he really didn't know when, and he would die under Zhu Yuanzhang's anger.

After all, she can't stay by Zhu Yuanzhang's side all the time!

Just like this time, if she hadn't happened to meet her, he Ye Qingke would have really died in the hands of her family's Chongba!

A moment later,

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was relieved, willingly drank a cup of health tea sent by Queen Ma.

It was only after this cup of health tea with the effect of clearing the liver and purging fire that Zhu Yuanzhang remembered that he had made a will to give Ye Qing to death before.

"Someone,"

"Hurry up and go to the Yamen of the Jinyi Guard to command the envoy and intercept the people back for us."

"If the decree has been transmitted, then send someone to intercept Mao Xiang back for us!"

A quarter of an hour later,

A little eunuch with fast legs and feet, at the gate of the Yamen of the Jinyi Guard, met the prince who was walking a small step.

At the speed at which he walks, it can be said that he is stepping on ants!

"Princess, have you delivered the decree?"

"If you don't pass the decree, you don't need to go to the decree, hurry back to the imperial study, Your Majesty has a new will!"

After hearing this, Wang Gonggong subconsciously looked in the direction of Yanmen County.

"This Lord Ye is really powerful!"

"Every time I write a letter, I can make the emperor angry, and I can escape death every time, it's just that Fu Lushou and three stars owe him a favor!"

“.”

After some exclamation, the prince hurriedly walked to the imperial study.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhu Yuanzhang agreed to Ye Qing's handwritten decree of these two conditions, and once again recorded a copy in Zhongshu Province.

Hu Weiyong looked at the bottom file of the holy decree for the record, and the whole person stiffened there.

Because judging from the content of Zhu Yuanzhang's handwriting, it was not Ye Qing who proposed the conditions at all, and the emperor agreed to the conditions, but the emperor ordered him to do so.

In other words, the two things of letting Ye Qingyao lead Yanmen County and establishing the 'Ningbo Special Executive Government' have nothing to do with Ye Qing at all, it was he Zhu Yuanzhang who took the initiative and ordered Ye Qing to do so.

In the future, in the history books, it will only be recorded that 'Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor of Hongwu, broke the stereotypes and did not stick to one pattern.'

This kind of writing technique, in addition to taking Ye Qing's 'creativity' as his own, can also not give Hu Weiyong any chance to refute.

If it is Ye Qingti's condition, Hu Weiyong will definitely impeach Ye Qing!

But this is the emperor's order, can he still impeach the emperor?

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are amazing!"

"Your hand, let Yanmen County still be in his hands, and it is still in your hands, my hand can't reach in at all!"

"And this special government, especially to me, the prime minister, can't ask about it, right?"

“.”

Thinking of this, Hu Weiyong instantly had a feeling of being generalized.

And after Xu Da read this holy decree, he was simply in good spirits at a happy event.

Xu Da smiled at Hu Weiyong and said: "Hu Xiang, Zhongshu Province will bother you a lot, and there are still things in the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xu Da walked towards the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion with his head held high.

After Xu Da told Wang Baobao, Fu Youde and Li Wenzhong about the matter, everyone was smiling.

There is only one sentence in their hearts, and that is 'my son-in-law is indeed capable'!

In the early morning half a month later,

Another eunuch who carried a new decree came to Yanmen County under the escort of a brocade guard wearing gold armor.

It's still Lord Qincha who is here, and he has to squat in the corner and wait for the report.

In the study room of the former Ya County of Yanmen County, Wu Yong also frowned slightly after receiving the news of the arrival of the eunuch, and his heart was uneasy.

To this day, he still can't figure out how the emperor could agree to these two conditions, which are equivalent to challenging the imperial power.

Because of this, he was a little worried that the content of the holy decree this time was not the result he hoped for.

But at that time, I didn't know how, so I believed them Lord Ye's mouth.

Of course, in addition to the fact that what they Lord Ye said did make some sense, it was also because Lord Ye had never miscalculated!

And he didn't know that they Lord Ye had miscalculated every time before, not to mention, and this time they still miscalculated!

"Let's hope it's a good outcome!"

"Otherwise."

Thinking of this, there was also a trace of unwavering killing intent between Wu Yong's eyebrows.

A moment later, Ye Qing, who had been notified, put on his official uniform again and came to the gate of the county government to greet the holy decree.

It is still the south gate guard who will open the way for Qincha, and it is still all the officials of the county government who are dressed in formal clothes and greet each other at the gate of the county government.

He Ye Qing still doesn't believe it, can this not kill him?

If this can be agreed, he will really have no recruitment in this county!

After the eunuch came to Ye Qing, he still held up the holy decree and signaled that the wax seal was intact, and then opened it in front of Ye Qing.

Finally, he opened the decree.

"Ye Qing, the magistrate of Yanmen County, take the order!".

Ask for the support of the officials, ask for recommended tickets, monthly passes, and reward support, thank you!
