But Korla's bad mouth mentioned it, and he mentioned it in front of everyone.
He said that he used to go to the port to have fun. Maybe Jales was the seed left behind after his happiness. Jales should call him father.
Jales believed that Korla not only insulted his mother, but also stained his bloodline.
Because Jales always believed that his father was a noble Spanish white man and could not be a mixed race like Korla.
Then the two became enemies!
Michael was aware of this matter.
Combined with the bad things in the past and the current situation, Korla's death is definitely a vendetta by Yales!
You must know that just now, Alais was standing at the door of his wooden house with a blood-stained dagger in his hand, looking at the murder scene.
He didn’t run away at all!
Yales explained urgently.
"Dear Mr. Michael, you have to believe me, I really didn't kill Korla!"
"I don't know what's going on! I was sleeping, and the door was kicked open from the outside. I came out to check the situation."
"I really didn't kill Korla, really not!"
Jales looked confused the whole time.
I just went out to check the situation, how could I be charged with killing Korla?
He really didn't know what was going on!
Michael, however, took the extra things that the overseers had just taken from Jales, and said with gritted teeth.
"You still dare to quibble?"
"Open your eyes and see what this is?"
"You didn't kill Korla, how could Korla's belongings be found on your body?"
Michael took out Korla's money bag and the brass badge that Korla had always treasured, and questioned Jales sternly.
"There is also the dagger. I have asked someone to check it. The shape of the dagger is consistent with the shape of the wound on Korla's body."
"You didn't kill Korla. Why do you have Korla's money bag on you, Korla's brass badge, and the murder weapon that killed Korla in your hand?"
"Jales, are you insulting my intelligence?"
Jales wanted to argue again.
"Mr. Michael, I really don't have it, Mr. Michael!"
"I was wronged!"
"These things were thrown into my house. I just picked them up and went out to see who kicked in my door!"
"..."
Michael looked ugly and waved his hand.
"Jales is crazy, absolutely crazy!"
"Hurry up and tie up this lunatic with a rope, gag his mouth, and then hand this lunatic over to the Governor's Palace for sentencing tomorrow!"
"My dear God, what happened tonight is so terrible!"
Michael had already determined that it was Yales who was trying to kill Korla, and no matter how Yales explained it, it was just sophistry to him.
He didn't believe Jialais's explanation even if it was just a punctuation mark.
How can there be such a coincidence in this world!
…
The supervisors' living area was ablaze. Zhu Hongyu looked back at his masterpiece and smiled gently at the corner of his mouth.
Then he walked towards the warehouse area without looking back.
The wooden house in Korla was set alight and the fire spread. Michael, the captain of the overseer, ordered all the overseers to put out the fire.
The guards in the warehouse area were also mobilized.
The supervisors were very vigilant and did not leave any guards in the warehouse area. Zhu Hongyu easily reached the vicinity of the warehouse.
He randomly found a warehouse, glanced at the lock hanging on the warehouse door, frowned, and gave up the preparation of entering through the door.
Because although he can open locks, he doesn't have the tools at hand, so he can only find other plans.
Looking up at the ventilation window on the wall of the warehouse, Zhu Hongyu estimated the height and distance and felt that he could reach it.
After glancing around to ensure safety, he took a few steps back, jumped up after a run, and reached out to grab the wooden frame on the ventilation window of the warehouse.
Using both hands, he lifted his body up and looked through the gap in the vent to look inside the warehouse.
The gap is not big enough for people to get in, so they can only poke their heads in to take a look.
The interior of the warehouse was very dark, and there was no lighted torch as a light source. Zhu Hongyu could only use moonlight for illumination.
Fortunately, the moon was very full and bright tonight, allowing him to barely see the scene in the warehouse.
Zhu Hongyu checked the six warehouses. The first four warehouses contained mined ore and neatly stacked copper ingots.
In the last two warehouses, one stores grain and the other stores a large number of muskets and swords.
Zhu Hongyu couldn't help but smile on his face. Once their uprising was successful, the food and weapons in these six warehouses would all be theirs.
At least they didn't have to worry about having no weapons at the beginning of the uprising.
…
Zhu Hongyu left the residential area where the supervisors lived, avoided the sentries, and headed towards where the miners lived.
He came outside the shack where Shi Yongxin and his son lived, and handed a few heads of garlic he collected from Korla's room to Shi Yongxin.
"Give it to your son. Although garlic cannot cure dysentery, it can relieve the symptoms."
Shi Yongxin took the garlic and nodded vigorously.
"Little brother, as long as you can save my son, my life is yours!"
Zhu Hongyu nodded and said.
"Come with me and take me back to the shack. I have something to tell you!"
Shi Yongxin nodded in agreement, and the two of them headed towards the shack where Zhu Hongyu lived.
…
It was quiet in the shack.
Everyone had fallen asleep, only Li Guangyuan was still awake, staring at the roof of the shack with his eyes wide open, thinking about what happened today.
When I thought about the fact that Brother Yu, whom I had been with day and night since childhood, had been destined to revive the Ming Dynasty and become the emperor.
He would be extremely excited to be like Lord Hongwu who drove away the Tartars and restored China's great heroes.
If Brother Yu becomes the emperor, wouldn't Li Guangyuan be Brother Yu's Xu Datang and Chang Yuchun?
A hundred generations of princes and princes, rest with the country!
Just when Li Guangyuan was thinking about how many wives he would have in the future, how many children he would have, and how much wealth he would create for his children and grandchildren, there was a noise outside the shack.
Then there was the conversation between Brother Yu and Master Shi.
Zhu Hongyu raised his voice and spoke to Shi Yongxin.
"You can go back now, what happened today is over!"
Shi Yongxin opened his mouth and answered.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhu, for being forgiving of my offense. Otherwise, I don't know how big a sin I would have caused!"
"From today on, I, Shi Yongxin, am willing to follow Master Zhu's lead!"
"But I, Shi Yongxin, will never refuse if you are given an order!"
Zhu Hongyu waved his hand and said.
"He who doesn't know is not guilty. I'm not a fussy person!"
Shi Yongxin said again.
"Master Zhu's identity is different from that of our fellow Sheng Dou people, and his temperament is indeed different from ours. Shi Mou admires him!"
Zhu Hongyu and Shi Yongxin sang the double act and acted outside the shack.
The movement outside the shack successfully woke up many miners in the shack.
The miners all looked surprised. Combining what Li Guangyuan said before and the scene outside the shack now, they all believed in the identity of Zhu Hongyu's Ming clan.
If Zhu Hongyu was not a member of the Ming Dynasty clan, how could Shi Yongxin, a leading figure in the mine, be so humble and respectful in front of him?
