In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang not only looked at Ye Qing's anger, but also looked at Xu Da and Wang Baobao, who were obviously biased towards Ye Qing.

Not bad

In his Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, Xu Da and Wang Baobao, who knew that he was here, prevented him Ye Qing from continuing, which was to help Ye Qing.

"What are you doing with it?"

"Let him say, let him continue to say it to Lao Tzu!"

"No, Lao Tzu has to rectify them, even if he doesn't die, he must be miserable."

"In the past, in front of the people of Yanmen County, I said that Lao Tzu had low knowledge and low vision, and he was not as good as him in governing the world."

"Now that I'm in a new place, I dare to say this in front of the people of Ningbo!"

“.”

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang's voice fell, he grabbed it easily.

But just as he was about to grab the teapot, Queen Ma took the teapot and said, "This is not your imperial study, it's not good to make a big noise." ”

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he swallowed this breath fiercely.

After a few moments, he stood up again, and was about to go out the door in a daze.

"What are you going to do?"

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly: "Go to the mansion, go to the mansion and ask him Ye Qing, if it wasn't for Xu Da and Wang Baobao to stop him, what would he say next." ”

"Do you want to say that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not as good as him in governing the world!"

Queen Ma didn't persuade him not to go, but just said righteously: "Without him to say, I can tell you that I am indeed inferior to him in this area." ”

Sure enough, this is more effective than persuading Zhu Yuanzhang not to go to the government.

At the moment, Mao Xiang, who was just sitting in the corner and was not qualified to speak, became an audience member of their family of three again.

In Mao Xiang's eyes, they were a family of three, sitting around a round table, looking at each other's eyes, all of them were a little 'hostile'.

But he also knew that their family of three was the most united emperor family since the word emperor was coined.

And this so-called 'hostility' is just their different opinions.

When they reach an agreement, the so-called 'hostility' in their eyes will turn into a tacit understanding.

Mao Xiang is a true gentleman who is silent at the moment, and he sees it very thoroughly.

In fact, whether it is Queen Ma or Zhu Biao, they are not really protecting Yeqing, after all, they are not Wu Yong, they are Zhu Yuanzhang's closest relatives.

Whether they quarrel with Zhu Yuanzhang or fight against Zhu Yuanzhang, they are all to protect the Ming Dynasty and Zhu Yuanzhang's reputation!

Zhu Yuanzhang is not unaware of the hard work of their mother and son, but that must be the time when he is calm.

And now, he is angry and doesn't say anything, and he can barely be regarded as a 'fan of the authorities'!

Zhu Yuanzhang looked straight at Queen Ma and said, "You can also make it clear to us, why are we not as good as him?" ”

Queen Ma said solemnly: "If you make it clear, let's make it clear, let's ignore him in front of so many people for the time being, it's not this matter that he said." ”

"As for the reason he said, 'Your Majesty is at fault first', do you admit it or not?"

"If you don't admit it, touch your conscience and ask yourself first!"

Zhu Yuanzhang just pursed his mouth, stared, and nodded reluctantly: "Hmm!" ”

Queen Ma continued: "Since you admit it, it's easy to do. ”

"Then let me ask Your Majesty, don't you really know that excessively depressing the officials' salaries will not only fail to play a role in fighting corruption and advocating honesty, but will also be counterproductive?"

"Don't you really understand the truth that things must be opposed?"

As soon as Queen Ma's voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought.

This mother-in-law is really good when she is good, but when she is angry, she is also really angry!

This is forcing him to say the big truth that 'Lao Tzu has no money'!

Actually, how could Zhu Yuanzhang not understand this truth?

The reason why he is so extreme in this matter is that in addition to the childhood experience of a family being killed by a corrupt official, there is also a major reason!

The current Daming treasury really can't come up with so much money to let all the officials below live the life that Ye Qing said.

That is, a life in which people's desires are satisfied to a certain extent!

There is no way, he can only hold high the banner of anti-corruption and clean government, let the officials be honest and disciplined, and at the same time work hard, and at the same time impose heavy penalties on corruption!

He thought that in this way, he could put an end to the corrupt atmosphere of officialdom, but he didn't expect that he would not be able to kill it at all.

Thinking about it now, he also felt that Ye Qing's disposal was very reasonable.

People like Zhu Huan and Zhu Liujiu, who use their status as relatives of the emperor to make a lot of money and allow their desires to expand infinitely, should indeed be killed.

If it weren't for the fact that there was an emperor in their house, it would not be an exaggeration to directly copy and kill the three clans!

Those who relied on Zhu Huan's father and son to make a lot of money also deserved death, but because of his Zhu Yuanzhang's mistakes, he would not be beheaded all over the house!

As for the group of people who were rewarded by Ye Qing, it is really His Majesty's fault not to mention first, and his conscience is still clear when he has a backer, in a sense, he really deserves the award!

Zhu Biao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang, who was deep in thought at the moment, and his eyes were not so firm, and immediately added: "Dad, they all say that forcing good people is prostitution, but I don't know that if you are too low, you will also have the consequences of forcing honesty to be greedy!" ”

"I very much agree with what Lord Ye said!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Zhu Biao, who was openly contradicting him, if he had changed to before, he would have been angry if he didn't say anything, and he would have looked unhappy.

And now, he just smiled and nodded: "Good boy, dare to go against us." ”

"Let's talk about it, which of his words makes you so recognized, just forget it if you say it well, if you don't say it well, then you can lie down yourself."

Zhu Biao said solemnly: "If you two are not the emperor and empress, I am just a seven-grade petty official, if you two are sick and need to eat a hundred years of ginseng to save your life, I will definitely be a corrupt official." ”

"There are not many sages who can sacrifice everything for the sake of the country, and if there are sages all over the street, then they are not sages."

"Most people take care of themselves and their families before they take care of others!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he just patted Zhu Biao's shoulder lightly and said, "Son, you are singing against your father this time, and you are singing very well!" ”

"Ye Qing's kid is so angry that we really want to cut him, but he is indeed right."

"Okay!"

"The reason why we are so demanding on officials, in addition to the painful experience we had when we were children, is because we have no money!"

"If we have money, we also have the confidence to learn from him Ye Qing in Yanmen County, after the money is in place, if we continue to be greedy, it will not be too much!"

"Raising a high fortune and being honest, and then increasing the punishment and killing the greed, must be much better than our current set!"

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned again and said: "But it's difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, we don't have any money!" ”

After Queen Ma and Zhu Biaomu heard this, they immediately looked at each other and smiled, because they had been waiting for so long and were waiting for this big truth.

Queen Ma was no longer serious, she moved to Zhu Yuanzhang's side, held his hand, and said gently: "Chongba, isn't this enough?" ”

"You don't have money, but he has money, doesn't this prove that you are indeed inferior to him in governing the world?"

"You"

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he frowned again.

But before he could continue, Empress Ma said gently: "But you are the emperor, a generation of legendary emperors who expelled Hulu and restored China." ”

"As long as you make good use of him Ye Qing, then the credit for his Ye Qing will be yours, you don't have a real relationship with him!"

"The merchant is better at business than you, and he is still your subject!"

"The champion is better at writing articles than you, but he can only start from the editing of the Hanlin Academy under you!"

"Just like just now, you only need to write a righteous decree at the right time, isn't Your Majesty's Shengming's voice much louder than Lord Ye's wise voice?"

"The people will know that the reason why he can win the love of the people on this side is because there is a discerning emperor!"

“.”

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Biao continued: "Dad, have you forgotten? ”

"We didn't even raise any opinions on the holy decree you just made, it was all such a decree that you came up with yourself, which can not only not expose us here, but also achieve all the purposes!"

"Your ability to employ people is unmatched!"

“.”

In this way, under the persuasion of Queen Ma and Zhu Biao singing and harmonizing, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became enlightened.

Now, he just feels that the air is much fresher.

He only felt that he had made a mistake that he shouldn't have made, that is, everything was compared to Ye Qing.

Actually, there is no need for this at all.

As long as he uses Ye Qing well, the people will naturally take Ye Qing's credit on his head.

And what he needs is just a discerning eye and a clear evaluation.

As for the rest, there is no need to fight with Ye Qing at all!

But after thinking about it, the reason why he always likes to be honest with Ye Qing is because of his stinky mouth!

When he was far away from Ye Qing, he wouldn't be as out of shape as he was now!

Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth trembled slightly: "If this guy changes his eloquence, it would be fine, if he doesn't change his eloquence, we really don't guarantee how long he will live." ”

"Go back to the palace!"

After lunch, Zhu Yuanzhang's motorcade passed by the government office.

He had to remember what the government was like now, so that it could be in stark contrast to 'Master Guo' when he came again.

Only this time, his mindset has changed.

For Ye Qing, it is no longer a crime that the government is comparable to the palace, but if the government is worse than the county government of Yanmen County, it will be a great crime.

is the prefect of the south, can't you build this one-third of an acre of land better than Yanmen County?

It must be a heinous sin!

After Zhu Yuanzhang made up his mind, he let Mao Xiang lead the convoy away.

On the official road from Ningbo Mansion to Yingtianfu,

They also encountered a convoy of two coffins, and the people in the convoy were still wearing the uniforms of the government officials, and at first glance it was the convoy of the Ningbo government office.

Zhu Yuanzhang lifted the curtain to look at this scene, and said to Mao Xiao, who was riding on the side: "Go and inquire, what's going on?" ”

After a while, Mao Xiang came back and said, "They said that this is the convoy sent by Ye Qing to find His Majesty to ask for merit and reward!" ”

Inside the carriage, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately grinned at the corners of his mouth, and he wanted to bare his teeth a little again.

"Pull the two coffins and go to us to ask for merit and reward?"

At the same time, Queen Ma and Zhu Biao also glanced at each other tacitly again, and their eyes were full of worry.

That kind of bad premonition directly rushed to the inspiration of the two!

And at this moment,

In the dining room of the mansion, in front of the messy dining table, Ye Qing, Xu Da and Wang Baobao also looked like their relationship was about to break up.

Ye Qing reprimanded sternly: "What are you two trying to do? ”

"This is thinking about the official, no, is this trying to embarrass the mansion?"

"In front of more than 10,000 people, snatch me away as a bride?"

"Although I'm wearing a big red official robe, it's not a big red wedding dress!"

"I have seen a lot of the bride robbery, but I didn't expect that I caught up with it, and I was robbed by the two marshals, which is also worth remembering for a lifetime!"

"The point is that I still haven't said a lot, and the feeling of being blocked in my throat is very uncomfortable, do you know?"

"Don't spit out the four words unpleasant, do you understand it?"

Xu Da and Wang Baobao also really wanted to get angry, the generalissimo was unexpectedly held by such a mere four-grade prefect.

The point is that this person still doesn't know how to do it!

Xu Da slapped it on the table and said, "You kid, is your face important or your life important?" ”

Wang Baobao also said solemnly: "Xu Shuai is right, is face or life important?" ”

Ye Qing didn't think about it, and replied seriously and responsibly: "Of course the face is important, compared with my face, how much is this rotten life worth?" ”

"You"

Xu Da and Wang Baobao never expected that this person would be able to say such tiger and wolf words.

I was so angry that I wanted to beat Ye Qing, but I was afraid that I would slap him to death!

After a while, Xu Da calmed down again and said seriously: "I know what kind of temper your kid is, that is, you are willing to ask for your life for the people, so I am willing to have fellowship with you." ”

"You really don't understand, why did we come to see you?"

"Do you really think that we are the only ones who come to see you?"

Actually, how could Ye Qing not know that these two were good to him?

But he really can't stand these two people's kindness to him!

If these two hadn't snatched him away, he would have been able to say even more excessive words to Zhu Yuanzhang's ears and eyes!

Ye Qing was no longer stern, just looked at Xu Da and Wang Baobao, and said earnestly: "Two elder brothers, I know that you treat me as a friend, and I will remember you for the rest of my life." ”

"But I have my ideals, I have my principles!"

The two nodded at the same time and said, "Tell me, what ideals and principles do you have?" ”

Ye Qing secretly said in his heart: "Of course, I worked hard to go home, either I was given death by Zhu Yuanzhang, or I was angry with him Zhu Yuanzhang!" ”

But on the surface, he raised his head slightly, standing up to the sky, showing the style of a literati.

Ye Qing held his head high and said seriously and responsibly: "I know why you are here, and I also know that it is not only the two of you who have come to see me. ”

"That's what I say and do, and I will never change it for anyone!"

"Only the emperor who is as powerful as the sea is worthy of letting me do things for him with peace of mind!"

"If Your Majesty doesn't even have this bit of energy, I'd rather die under his sword than bow to him!"

The two of them looked at Ye Qing's back, and suddenly looked much more pleasing to the eye.

This kind of civil servant who is heartfelt, has the style of a literati, is principled in doing things, and is also talented must be protected.

For the sake of Daming, for Huaxia, and for his daughter, he must do everything he can to protect it!

After a while, Ye Qing walked on the way back to the room.

At the same time, I saw Shen Wan'er who was coming on, as well as Xu Miaojin and Mei Doram.

But in his eyes, there is only his housekeeper Shen Wan'er.

As for these two girls who looked exactly like Li Xueyan and Gesang Meiduo, they just nodded politely and passed by.

After the two said goodbye to Shen Wan'er, they looked back at the back that was about to disappear from view.

The two of them just thought it was strange,

When we first met, we were like old people, singing and giving gifts, why did they suddenly become strangers? .

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