Chapter 182: Repaying Resentment with Virtue
It has been a long time since Ye Mingsheng spoke. Jinyu's face has turned from blushing to pale. She has begun to regret why she said what she just said. Why did the young master look down on her because of this and think that she is a libertine?
Silver baby?
Thinking of this, Jinyu's heart was as sharp as a knife, and her beautiful eyes were also covered with a layer of mist. She had no strength all over her body, and her petite body trembled slightly...,
Looking at the little girl who was about to break down and cry, Ye Mingsheng asked with a playful smile on his face:
"Where did you learn the words?"
Jinyu hesitated for a moment, but still wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and sobbed very aggrievedly: "I saw it from Romance of the West Chamber..."
After saying that, the little girl cried out in grievance. Ye Mingsheng smiled and shook his head, and then ordered: "If you are willing, then come tonight!"
When I heard what Ye Mingsheng said, I was crying with tears just a second ago. When I saw the pitiful Jinyu, my eyes suddenly bloomed with surprise, and a shy blush appeared on her white cheeks again.
above.
Lowering his head, Jinyu rubbed the corners of his clothes and whispered:
"The slave family will take good care of the young master!"
Although Jinyu's voice was low, her tone was very firm, which showed that this little girl had already made her decision.
After smiling and comforting the little girl with a few words, Ye Mingsheng sent her out of the study. Then Ye Mingsheng, who was guarding the door, called Ye Dong in and asked:
"How is Ma Runchuan's situation?"
Because Ye Tie, the original captain of the soldiers, was assigned to lead the army, Ye Mingsheng promoted Ye Dong, who was the smartest and best in martial arts among the soldiers, to serve as his new captain of the soldiers.
And because of the expansion of his troops, Ye Mingsheng selected more than a dozen capable subordinates from the Ye family and his old tribe, and added them to his own personal army under the jurisdiction of Ye Dong.
Ye Dong is also very proud of Ye Mingsheng's cultivation. Yesterday, he led more than a dozen people to rush into the county government office and captured Ma Runchuan alive under the protection of dozens of soldiers.
"I can eat and drink, but I am clamoring to see you, young master!" Ye Dong bowed and reported to Ye Mingsheng:
Hearing that Ma Runchuan wanted to see him, Ye Mingsheng raised his eyebrows as if he was a little surprised. He pondered for a moment and ordered:
"Since the county magistrate wants to see me, then give him a chance and bring him here!"
"Yes!" Ye Dong took the order and left.
After burning the incense, Ma Runchuan, who looked a little tired, appeared in front of Ye Mingsheng.
Looking at Ye Mingsheng who was looking at him with a smile in front of him, even though it was only a few months ago, Ma Runchuan felt as if he was a lifetime away.
A few months ago, he and Ye Mingsheng were on an equal footing. Only a few years ago, Ye Mingsheng was already a fifth-grade General Huwei, while he himself became a prisoner...
With a hint of bitterness on his face, Ma Runchuan bowed and saluted: "I have met General Huwei, my subordinate, Ma Runchuan."
Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and said calmly: "Master Ma is an old acquaintance. No need to be polite. Please sit down!"
"Thank you, sir, for the seat!"
Hearing that Ye Mingsheng's attitude was quite polite, Ma Runchuan felt a little more comforted and sat down under Ye Mingsheng.
After sitting down, Ma Runchuan was thinking about what to say, but just when he raised his head and looked at Ye Mingsheng to say something, he saw the letter placed on Ye Mingsheng's desk.
Immediately, Ma Runchuan's eyes widened, he was so full that he could no longer say anything, and his back was dripping with cold sweat.
Seeing Ma Runchuan's expression, Ye Mingsheng's expression gradually changed to a smile, and he said lightly: "I heard that Mr. Ma has something to say to me. Now you can speak freely!"
Hearing this, Ma Runchuan smiled bitterly and shook his head and said: "Since General Ye already knows, I have nothing to say. I will let the general handle it, but please do not bring harm to your family!"
After speaking, Ma Runchuan stood up and knelt in front of Ye Mingsheng, his face full of pleading.
Seeing that Ma Runchuan was quite a bachelor, Ye Mingsheng was a little surprised. He thought that Ma Runchuan would burst into tears and cry for mercy.
After looking Ma Runchuan up and down carefully, Ye Mingsheng personally helped him up from the ground and said with a smile:
"Master Ma, you don't have to be like this, you are just following orders!"
"I heard from the tribe that Mr. Ma takes great care of our Ye family, so Ye has no intention of embarrassing Mr. Ma."
"I don't expect Mr. Ma to provide any help in recruiting troops for me. I just hope that Mr. Ma will be able to keep his integrity."
"As long as Mr. Ma does this, Ye can guarantee the safety of your family's life and property, Mr. Ma!"
"As for the end of my recruitment, Mr. Ma, you can report to the Governor what Ye did and how he coerced you. Even Mr. Ma, you can add fuel to the fire, and it doesn't matter to Ye!"
"I wonder, Lord Ma, what do you think?"
Hearing Ye Mingsheng's words, Ma Runchuan was a little surprised at first, and then turned into an expression of incredible surprise.
When he saw the letter on Ye Mingsheng's desk between him and General Xing Dalin of the Governor's Mansion, he thought that this time he would definitely be doomed and his life was in danger. He never expected that Ye Mingsheng seemed to let him go just like that.
he.
Bowing deeply to Ye Mingsheng, Ma Runchuan said with great gratitude:
"General Ye is so righteous, I really feel ashamed of myself..."
"Since Mr. Ma has no objection, then go home. My wife and children should be anxious!" Ye Mingsheng smiled and reassured:
"Thank you, General Ye!"
After thanking Ye Mingsheng profusely, he went home full of joy.
Seeing that Ye Mingsheng let Ma Runchuan go so easily, Ye Dong hesitated and couldn't help complaining to Ye Mingsheng:
"Master, this bastard Ma Runchuan and that Xing Dalin plotted to harm you, how could you do it so easily..."
Ye Mingsheng didn't explain when he heard this, he just smiled and shook his head, leaving the question to Ye Dong to figure out on his own.
Because he decided to recruit troops in Fengshan, Ye Mingsheng also made a lot of efforts to get to know Ma Runchuan, a parent official in his hometown.
Although Ma Runchuan is not an upright official, he is not considered a very corrupt official in today's world. In addition, although he is a little greedy, he also has a little wife.
However, in recent years, under Ma Runchuan's governance, Fengshan County has been calm, peaceful and stable, and everyone has food to eat and clothing to wear.
Both the squires, landlords and ordinary people have a very good reputation for Magistrate Ma. Therefore, although it feels good to kill Ma Runchuan, it will undoubtedly tarnish his own image, which is not conducive to his future career.
