"Your Highness, the brothers have caught someone who is deliberately causing trouble and has something to do with His Majesty. Do you want to interrogate him?"
In Kunning Palace, Jiang Wei came to report.
Gao Yong's matter soon came to light after Jin Yiwei's file investigation.
At first, I thought it was a secret left over from the previous dynasty, but after some investigation, I found out that it was related to a rebellion case in the twelfth year of Hongwu.
Where the Ming Dynasty was founded, there were quite a few rebellions.
It's just that they are all small fights, and there are only a handful of bigger ones.
The Ming Dynasty's guard system was spread all over the country, and tens of thousands of troops could be mobilized for suppression easily.
The only special rebellion left a deep impression on Zhu Yuanzhang.
That was the rebellion in Fengyang, Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown.
However, a few hundred people were wiped out within three days of the rebellion, and the two leaders of the rebellion were also directly captured and brought to the capital.
It was also because of the rebellion of people from Fengyang, Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown, that it aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's curiosity.
One of the two leaders is Gao Yong's father, Gao Feng.
My home is the village next door to Zhu Yuanzhang.
After listening to Jiang Wei's explanation of the whole situation, Zhu Ying also knew why Jiang Wei came to find him alone instead of directly going to the old man.
If this matter came to the old man, he would definitely put an end to it directly.
Jiang Wei believed that Gao Yong had an accomplice and was connected with the secret agent of the previous dynasty. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to cause many chaos with his own power, and it would be impossible for him to escape Jin Yiwei's household registration investigation.
Because the current household registration of Gao Yong belongs to someone else.
It is impossible to create a household registration privately and hide it in the capital for so many years. It is impossible to do it alone.
Although today's chaos has subsided, due to the large crowd, the only one caught was Gao Yong.
"I don't have to go. I will make this matter clear to my grandfather. There is no need to rush to execution. After all, he is a poor man, but this man has hatred deep into his bones. There is no need to keep him."
"Once the person behind it is investigated, he will be executed immediately."
"After all, he is also from Grandpa's hometown. If he cooperates, the punishment will be reduced and he will be allowed to eat a few good bites."
Zhu Ying said after pondering.
Although I have some sympathy for Gao Yong, after all, he rebelled because he could not survive, but Zhu Ying does not have so much kindness as a woman.
Such people bear a blood feud.
If we open the net and let them go, who knows what hidden dangers there may be.
Of course, danger must be nipped in the bud.
After hearing His Highness Changsun's instructions, Jiang Yu bowed and said, "I understand, and I will do what Your Highness wants."
After Jiang Wei left, Zhu Ying sighed softly.
I was thinking about going to see the situation of sweet potatoes and other crops.
These days, many people are so hungry that they have no choice but to rebel.
Most people would rather kneel down to eat than stand up to rebel.
As night fell, the turmoil in the capital ended that day.
What left the deepest impression on all the people of the Ming Dynasty was the army of twenty guards that entered the city.
This is the first time that all the people have seen an army with such military discipline.
It was simply shocking, and a special emotion began to ripple in the hearts of all the people.
That is recognition of the Ming Dynasty and recognition of the motherland.
Look, this is our Ming Dynasty’s army.
If we talk about the recognition of the dynasty.
Throughout the ages, perhaps the most recognized ones are only the Han people.
Even now, all people from the Central Plains are called Han people.
This is the recognition of the Han Dynasty.
This kind of recognition continues, even in later generations, they are still Han people.
Why is there such strong recognition of the Han Dynasty?
because.
The country Heng was destroyed by weakness, and the Han Dynasty was destroyed by strength.
Even at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when it was the most chaotic period, there was no foreign invasion.
This is Han.
And now Zhu Ying wants to build a Ming Dynasty that is more powerful and richer than the Han Dynasty.
When night falls,
Zhu Ying is checking the performance of the twenty guards who entered the city today.
It has to be said that Jin Yiwei does have very advanced experience in the field of supervision.
Twenty health camps, more than 110,000 people.
With how many Jinyi Guards there are, it is impossible to monitor all of them, but even so, on Zhu Ying's desk, even the personal information, surnames, and affiliations of many soldiers are recorded in detail.
"Sure enough, you can't underestimate anyone. Jin Yiwei is really skilled in this business. No wonder the old man is so comfortable with it."
"Even though Jinyiwei was cancelled, Zhu Di continued to restore it. Later emperors also established East Factory and West Factory to expand the scale."
"Anyone who sees this will find it reliable."
Zhu Ying looked at the dossier and sighed.
In this era without Skynet, to achieve such an effect, if you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you would have thought it was fake.
While thinking, a figure appeared at the door.
"grandfather."
With just a peripheral vision, Zhu Ying knew that the old man was coming.
The old man basically comes to Kunning Palace every day after processing a batch of memorials.
"How about my grandson? I've just told you that many things often exceed your expectations, but these are actually not terrible. What's important is how you deal with them."
"We have experienced too many things over the years. We have suffered losses many times. The problem is not big. The key is how to deal with the aftermath."
"But don't be afraid. Just do it boldly. Even if something happens, we will still be here."
Zhu Yuanzhang walked to Zhu Ying's side and said with a smile.
There is no hint of the emperor's airs in his words.
To Zhu Ying, Zhu Yuanzhang was just like a grandfather from an ordinary family, with only doting on his eldest grandson in his eyes.
"Grandpa said that my grandson was careless about today's matter."
Zhu Ying replied.
Ultimately, the large number of people gathering in the capital this time was due to the recruitment of workers.
No one is perfect, and Zhu Ying has no experience in this regard.
In his previous life, he was just a member of the common people. He didn't have enough experience in society, so he came to the Ming Dynasty.
To be honest, in the early days, it was extremely difficult to survive in the Ming Dynasty, even with the blessing of external forces.
Life in ancient times was far more difficult than imagined.
When recruiting workers, Zhu Ying focused on how to set industry benchmarks and make a standard plan for the future direction of factories in Daming.
As for the reaction of the people, some of them were too unexpected.
As a grandson, Zhu Ying now has to deal with a lot of things every day, which is also one of the factors.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Who can always have smooth sailing? It doesn't matter if you suffer losses, as long as you have a long memory. While our children are still here, we are willing to let our grandson suffer a lot."
"So that when we leave and the eldest grandson suffers another loss, there will be no one to help wipe his butt."
Hearing the old man's teasing, Zhu Ying said with some excitement: "What did grandpa say? According to grandpa's current physical condition, it is still short to live a hundred years."
For the old man, Zhu Ying has truly entered his heart now.
They are two completely different concepts than when I first met the old man.
The human heart is made of flesh.
At the beginning, Zhu Ying was more polite to the old man. Even after knowing his identity, his emotional feelings were not particularly strong.
After entering the palace, time lengthens.
The old man's concern for her in every aspect made Zhu Ying truly recognize and accept this grandpa in her heart.
It's Grandpa, not the Ming Emperor.
These two completely different concepts.
Zhu Ying's alertness is very high, especially after falling asleep.
This has something to do with the early rush.
And only Zhu Ying knew that late every night, the old man would always come to Kunning Palace to see if his eldest grandson had slept well, whether he had covered the cup and whether he would catch a cold.
When a person is treated wholeheartedly, that feeling is happiness.
Zhu Ying also proposed to sleep with grandpa.
He didn't want to keep the old man up at night.
Zhu Yuanzhang refused with a smile: "How old is the eldest grandson, but he still sleeps with grandpa. If this spreads out, it will have an impact on the eldest grandson's reputation."
"I am very happy to be able to accompany you all the time."
Even so, Zhu Ying couldn't see the pity deep in the old man's eyes.
Zhu Ying knew very well that in the old man's heart, she might be the only relative and the deepest concern in this world.
Every time she thinks about this, Zhu Ying will feel guilty.
I blame myself for why I left the capital in the first place and went to Henan to deal with the plague.
In fact, Zhu Ying knew in his heart that he could completely control the situation by remote control. He went there in person just to gain more fame.
It is hard to imagine how the old man lived during the time when he was not in the palace.
Worry and concern will always make people think of bad things.
For the old man, that period must have been very difficult.
And when I came back, all I saw was the old man's kind care, and he didn't say a word about his own affairs.
Thinking of this, Zhu Ying suddenly burst into tears and said, "Grandpa, I'm sorry."
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to realize something. You touched Zhu Ying's head, just like you would have held him in your arms when he was a child, and comforted him: "Silly boy, what nonsense are you talking about? You can come back to us.
It is already God’s greatest gift.”
"Grandpa, I never thought that I would thank God now. In the past, I would have scolded God every day, hahaha!"
Hearing the old man's teasing, Zhu Ying also laughed.
Late at night, somewhere in the capital.
A group of people with serious faces gathered together quietly.
"It's such a pity what happened this time. I didn't expect to miss it so much. Jin Yiwei's movements were indeed very fast."
"If we can guess the layout in advance, we can take revenge and cause even greater chaos in the capital."
"Brother, don't blame yourself. This move was too fast. No one expected that just one recruitment could have such a big fluctuation. It is already very good to be able to arrange people from morning to night."
"Jin Yiwei and we have been enemies for many years, and they are very smart in this regard, especially this Jiang Wei. After hearing the news, it was said that it was Jiang Wei who, at the first opportunity, risked being punished and went directly to the palace to request an army to suppress the capital."
"This Jiang Yu has ruined so many good things for us. We must find a way to kill him first. It's simply too irritating."
When the elder brother heard this, he couldn't help but said angrily: "These commanders of the Imperial Guards really have a lot of thoughts on their minds, and they are also loyal enough to the Dog Emperor."
"I tried my best to kill one of them, but this one is even more difficult to deal with than the last one."
"I don't know what's in their minds. The Dog Emperor is pouring ecstasy soup into them. Couldn't he see how the previous commander died?"
"Taking the blame for that dog emperor, do you really think that loyalty will pay off?"
After hiding in the capital for so many years and confronting the Jin Yiwei, I don't know how much I have suffered, and I have also lost many brothers.
As the nail buried in the capital of the Ming Dynasty by the previous dynasty, the man known as Big Brother racked his brains every day on how to sow discord and chaos in the Ming Dynasty.
As the elder brother spoke, the moonlight shone on his face. If anyone saw him, they would never think that he was a spy from the previous dynasty.
I saw that he had regular facial features and a dignified appearance. Apart from his slightly gloomy eyes at the moment, he looked exactly like a middle-aged scholar. Judging from his clothes, he was from a wealthy family.
The most important thing is that he is Han, not Mongolian.
Several people following him were also Han Chinese.
This man is a traitor.
"Brother, regarding Gao Yong, what should we do? Should we use our connections to kill this person first, so as not to spread our situation to others?"
"If the Jin Yiwei knows about our existence, I'm afraid they will become even more vigilant and follow the clues, and our life will be difficult."
One of the tall, thin men asked.
From his words, people were surprised to find that these people may have a hidden relationship among the Jinyi Guards.
However, the eldest brother's next words ruled out this possibility. He frowned and said, "These Jin Yiwei jailers charge very high prices. Now that Gao Yong is arrested, Jin Yiwei will definitely torture him to extract a confession."
"Last time, we only killed a few minions and it cost one thousand treasure coins. This time, even Jiang Gu paid attention. He probably doesn't have ten thousand or twenty thousand treasure coins and is unwilling to take the risk."
After hearing the 10,000 to 20,000 treasure notes, several people exclaimed, and another person said: "This is simply a robbery. It's just a human life, how can you ask for such a high price?"
"Ten thousand treasure notes, they are willing to pay so much, brother."
The eldest brother shook his head and said: "Those businessmen are very rich. Tens of thousands of treasures are nothing to them. However, these people are extremely shrewd. If they don't see the rabbit, they won't let the eagle fly. They may make any demands again."
After finishing speaking, after thinking for a moment, the eldest brother said with some uncertainty: "Actually, I think Gao Yong is quite brave. His father died at the hands of the Dog Emperor, so he shouldn't give in so easily."
