Chapter 371: The two snitches bravely entered the thousand-year-old Confucian Mansion, Lu Shangshu's messenger, and connected with Lord Ye!
"Xu Shuai, this thousand-year-old Confucian Mansion is really substantial!"
"The courtyard outside looks simple, not only is the courtyard not as grand as your Wei Mansion, but the territory is not as big as your Wei Mansion."
"But the rockery pool and forest scenery in here are much more exquisite than your Wei State Mansion."
"The decoration in this house is really magnificent!"
"Even compared to Ye Qing's house, it's not much better."
"Look, the 'Colorful Horse Stepping on Feiyan' made by the Liuli Factory in Yanmen County is actually here?"
"I remember the price, 100,000 yuan!"
The thousand-year-old Confucian Mansion is not very spacious, but it is definitely much more magnificent and magnificent than the meeting hall of the Wei State Mansion and Hu Weiyong's Prime Minister's Mansion.
The two men in black were like thieves, visiting everywhere.
Wang Baobao took the fire fold and looked at these dazzling collection ornaments, and only felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial study was a 'thatched house'.
Xu Da also nodded and said, "Aren't these literati like this in history?" β
"Dressed shabby on the outside, but rich on the inside!"
"They want wealth, they want fame, it's really like fish and bear's paws, and they are not ready to let it go!"
Speaking of this, he sighed again and said: "It's really bitter for my emperor's brother, he doesn't even have a decent ornament, take a transparent glass vase as a treasure." β
"Look at these things, which ones are not a hundred times more expensive than the ornaments of my emperor's elder brother?"
"This is the first time I've seen a family that can rival Brother Ye in terms of wealth!"
Wang Baobao just smiled coldly and said, "No matter how powerful Brother Ye is, that is the development situation of a few years." β
"People have been accumulating since the Warring States Period!"
"Brother Ye has enough wealth for them to wrestle their wrists, and he is already a genius of heaven and earth."
"It's just that after these sages, they have accumulated so much wealth for their own luxury, but what about Brother Ye?"
"He says every day that his life is better than that of the emperor, and the women are more beautiful than the emperor, but how much money does he extravagant?"
"It's not all used to develop the country and work for the benefit of the people!"
"After the sage, compared with the high-profile corrupt officials, the judgment is high!"
Immediately afterwards, he said in a tone of remorse: "Damn, I was deceived by their simple courtyard back then. β
"If I knew such a thing when I lost the pass, I would never give them a single hair."
When Xu Da heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "Then thank God." β
"This wealth is still in my Ming territory, but it doesn't matter if you take it away."
"Didn't you take away the jade seal of the heirloom country?"
"In the end, I didn't go back to my emperor's brother's jade seal box!"
β.β
On both sides of the glimmer of the fire fold, the two snitches, who only showed their eyes, began to look at each other again.
If it weren't for the conditions, it would probably have to be a big fight!
After a while, Wang Baobao smiled arrogantly and said, "You didn't find it back, it was Brother Ye who came up with an idea, and you found it back." β
Xu Da just smiled and said, "But your brother Ye is my Da Ming person!" β
"You"
Xu Da continued: "Not only that, but because of Brother Ye, you have become my Da Ming person, and you are also my deputy marshal!" β
When he said the word 'vice', he couldn't raise the volume, so he dragged the word very, very long!
"You've won!"
Xu Da just smiled indifferently and said, "I said that you can only win me once in your life, no matter what aspect it is." β
Before Wang Baobao could say his rebuttal, a voice came from outside.
"Everyone, come with me!"
Immediately afterwards, I saw the light of the lantern and the sound of footsteps.
In the next moment, the two of them, who had been fighting back and forth before, immediately nodded at the same time with a tacit understanding.
After Xu Da pushed open the window, Wang Baobao jumped out and rolled out.
After Wang Baobao flipped over, he supported the window again, and Xu Da jumped out again.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Baobao stepped down again, putting his hands on his thighs.
Xu Da stepped on his hands, and while jumping into the air, Wang Baobao also sent it hard, which can be said to be quite perfectly coordinated.
After Xu Da went to the room silently, he reached out and grabbed Wang Baobao, and at the same time he pulled up, he jumped up hard.
Whether they came out of the house or went up to the roof, they all cooperated tacitly, leaving no traces.
In fact, the light body kung fu of both of them is very good, but no matter how powerful the light body kung fu is, it is not a volley leap in the interpretation of the script.
They also need to find a point to borrow, or use this kind of scout (scout) who needs to cooperate to 'ride the ladder' to get into the house, or jump up with their feet on the wall.
Obviously, they can't leave footprints on the wall, that's the only way to do it.
The two of them are like this, when they are opponents, they are dead and alive at the same time, but there is no way to make each other really defeated.
But when they work together, their opponents are really going to lose!
They are also the same as Mao Xiang, when they pick up the tiles, they only pick up a distance of black-eyed kernels.
The two of them were just lying on the roof of the house in the moonlight, head to head, looking at everything below.
Under the two black eyes of the two,
Four young and beautiful maids were lighting the lights everywhere, and as the lights gradually became brighter, they condescendingly saw the true content of the four maids dressed in Tang style maid clothes.
Looking at this scene, Wang Baobao immediately moved his Adam's apple, and then pouted his ass slightly.
You can't do it without pouting your ass!
If you make a noise from the tiles under you, it will be terrible!
"It's really going to be enjoyable!"
"Do you want to let these maids hold their feet and help warm their feet when it's cold?"
"My brother Ye is not so good at enjoying it!"
β.β
When Wang Baobao thought of this, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
If his elder brother Ye is so good at enjoying it, his daughter will suffer in the future!
Thinking of this, Wang Baobao quickly dispelled this idea again.
Xu Da didn't pay attention to the content of the maid, but was observing the layout of the hall.
I have to say that his emperor's elder brother's council hall is more than a little poor compared to this.
It can also be said that none of the top handicrafts made in Yanmen County were placed in the palace, and all of them were placed in the Confucian Mansion.
Presumably, the thousand-year-old Meng Mansion in Jining Mansion, Shandong Province, should also be like this.
Although Xu Da was shocked, he didn't find it strange!
Since Confucianism, they have been the leading bosses of the Chinese education industry, and they can even be said to be semi-monopolies.
The people of these two families not only control so many folk schools, but even have a lot of emperors.
The ones who like to invite them to be emperors the most are those foreign emperors!
The reason why the foreign emperor asked them to be the emperor's teacher is also very obvious!
This is definitely a win-win deal for those foreign emperors and them, and the foreign emperors can tell the people of the Central Plains through them that although they are foreigners, they have been sinicized.
And they can also use the identity of 'emperor' to continue to vigorously develop their family 'business'.
Only the founding emperor of the Han family like Zhu Yuanzhang would be wary of them, just giving them a position that looks like a little status, but has no fart rights.
But even so, it can bring them a lot of prestige!
Thinking of this, Xu Da also frowned!
Because it is indeed very difficult to fight against them.
Just when Xu Da began to think about the way to 'win' them, everyone was already seated, and fragrant tea and melons and fruits were also placed.
"Everyone knows that my brother Kong Kebiao is a scholar of the Hanlin Academy, and now he wants to be the Guozi Prisoner's Guozi Sacrifice Wine!"
"As long as he becomes the son of the country, the benefits of you will only be a lot."
In the eyes of Xu Da and Wang Baobao, the big man who is sitting on the top is Kong Kebiao's younger brother, Kong Kelin!
The actual patriarch Kong Kebiao is an official in the capital, so this Kong Kelin is the 'acting patriarch' of his hometown!
And these are dozens of people who are echoing him, that is, local officials and squires and wealthy businessmen!
Immediately afterwards, Kong Kelin continued: "However, the emperor asked my eldest brother to be the messenger who implemented the [Spreading Ding into the Mu] and [The Gentry Integrate as an Errand and Receive Grain as One], and he also wanted to do a pilot project with us. β
"What is this for?"
"It's about using our influence to lay the groundwork for a national rollout."
"Is my eldest brother capable of snatching food from our mouths?"
"He can't do it!"
"But he can't directly say to the emperor that he won't do it, he can only say that he is not suitable to do it!"
"Therefore, he recommended Ye Qing, the prefect of Ningbo Prefecture, as the messenger to implement [paving into the mu] and [the gentry are integrated as an errand and receive grain as one].
"Our Lord Qincha will arrive at our Guide Mansion in the near future."
As soon as Kong Kelin's voice fell, everyone began to talk.
"This Ye Qing is a big celebrity in the eyes of His Majesty!"
"Corrupt and bent the law, privately built an arsenal, but from the seven-pin prefect to the four-pin prefect?"
"How can you recommend such a person to do this errand?"
β.β
Kong Klin hurriedly said loudly: "Everyone be quiet, this is the wisdom of my eldest brother. β
"Let him come, wouldn't it be better if we didn't let him get things done?"
"As long as he can't do his errand, he will 'lose his thousand-year-old merits', he will change from a big celebrity to a sinner, and he will fall out of favor!"
"As long as this person falls out of favor, my eldest brother will have a great chance of being the son of the country!"
"This is a plan to kill two birds with one stone, which can not only make the implementation of these two national policies unenforceable, but also ensure that my eldest brother succeeds in becoming the national priest!"
β.β
When everyone heard this, they all echoed it again.
At this moment, a middle-aged man who looked like an official stood up.
He asked aloud: "Confucius scholar and Hu Xiang, have you ever written from us about how we can make them unable to do this errand?" β
Xu Da looked at this person and recognized it at once.
He is the prefect of Henan Guidefu, and he can't remember his name for a while.
But he can be sure that this person is Hu Weiyong's protΓ©gΓ©!
Just as Xu Da was trying to recall his name, Kong Kelin continued: "Please rest assured, Master Gou, I have notified you to come just to talk about this matter. β
"My eldest brother sent a letter asking us to send someone to squat fifty miles outside the city now, and once we find out about his whereabouts, we must go out immediately to meet him."
"The standard of greeting should not be too high, so as not to say that we are extravagant, but we must not be too perfunctory, we must treat each other with courtesy, and we must show our sincerity."
"At the same time, it is also to show our strength in front of him."
"And then there's one thing, now you're going to do something!"
"Let the people benefit!"
"Let the people support us until we resist from the heart!"
"Of course, it won't take too long, as long as this thing is over, you can earn more money back."
β.β
In the eyes of Xu Da and Wang Baobao, all the officials and wealthy businessmen and squires below nodded thoughtfully.
The two of them looked at this scene and frowned at the same time.
I have to say that he Hu Weiyong is really a talent!
If they comprehended the essence of Hu Weiyong, Ye Qing and the two of them would be really difficult!
Moments later, Konklin sent the men away.
At the same time, Xu Da and Wang Baobao also disappeared on the roof of this thousand-year-old Confucian Mansion at just the right time.
On the way back to the post station, Wang Baobao frowned and said, "Xu Shuai, what should we do?" β
Xu Da glanced at him and said, "Don't you want to win me?" β
"If you think of a way to come out, you'll win me!"
Where can Wang Baobao come up with any way, after all, this is not a battlefield fight, this is a real struggle for political interests!
Of course, Wang Baobao would not admit defeat on the surface, looked at Xu Dadao: "Why don't you think of a way, and you can win me if you think of it?" β
Xu Da shook his head and said, "I'm not interested in winning you now, I've won you many times in my life!" β
"You"
Xu Da was too lazy to take care of Wang Baobao, so he rode his horse and sped up to the post station.
For a while, he really didn't have any good solutions.
If he is allowed to do this, it is to take advantage of the status of the two of them to forcefully order the local Han military households, as well as the Meng Yuan and Semu military households, not to accept their so-called 'concessions'!
It's a bit untenable to do that.
A few days later,
Ye Qing's team finally arrived fifty miles in front of the post station.
Because his team was too high-profile, the messenger of Lu Ben, who had been hiding in the woods, recognized them at once.
Under the morning light, on the official road, a knight wearing a hat and a cloak suddenly turned from the forest to the middle of the road!
"Alert!"
The elite cavalry hundreds, who rode in front, surrounded him as soon as they gave an order.
There were even quite a few archers, aimed at him.
But he just said unhurriedly: "I have no malice, just a caring person in the court who asked me to hand over a letter to Lord Ye." β
"Little, I've been waiting here for a long time."
So saying, he took out the letter, presented it with both hands, and fell to his knees.
Seeing that he had already knelt down to offer his gesture, the cavalry Baihu took the letter and headed towards the carriage where Ye Qing was!.
