Ye Mingsheng's words in the study made Ye Tie and Zhu Shanyan confused...
If the mistake was not to offend Cui Dakai, Zheng Xu and the governor behind him, Murong Yuliang, then what exactly was the mistake?
Although he couldn't figure out what Ye Mingsheng's words meant, Ye Tie, who was familiar with Ye Mingsheng's character, knew that Ye Mingsheng didn't like his subordinates to play tricks on him, so he quietly winked and knelt on the ground with a confused look on his face. Zhu Shanyan signaled him to tell the truth.
Although Zhu Shanyan reacted a little slowly, he was not stupid. After getting Ye Tie's hint, he also understood Ye Tie's hint. He hesitated and said:
"I'm humble and stupid, I don't understand what adults mean!"
After saying that, Zhu Shanyan lowered his head in shame.
Seeing that Zhu Shanyan was quite honest, Ye Mingsheng said lightly:
"What is the mission given to you?"
Zhu Shanyan, who had not yet reacted, said calmly:
"Guard the city gates, check the people coming and going, check the vehicles and goods entering the city, and search whether they are carrying contraband."
"Have you checked Cui Dakai and his party?" Ye Mingsheng continued to ask:
Upon hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Zhu Shanyan understood what Ye Mingsheng meant even though he was slow to react, but he still couldn't help but defended:
"Cui Dakai, he said he is the commander-in-chief and your uncle..."
"He is the King of Heaven. Even if there is no order from above, you have to search for him!" Ye Mingsheng said in a deep voice:
Upon hearing what Ye Mingsheng said, Zhu Shanyan, who finally understood where he was wrong, lowered his head in shame and stopped defending.
"Ye Tie, this Zhu Shanyan is your subordinate, so according to military regulations, what punishment should be given to him in this situation?" Seeing that Zhu Shanyan was convinced, Ye Mingsheng faced Ye Tie and asked:
Hearing Ye Mingsheng ask himself, Ye Tie hesitated and then said:
"Master, Zhu Shanyan violated military regulations, so he should be given fifty strokes of the military stick, but since this is his first offense, I think he should be given thirty strokes of the military stick!"
"Well, go down and make arrangements!" Ye Mingsheng nodded and said:
Zhu Shanyan, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that he only needed thirty blows with the military stick. He originally thought that he was doomed this time.
Even if he is not beheaded, I am afraid he will be beaten to the end and become a soldier again. I never thought that thirty sticks would be enough to understand this matter... ··
For him, who is thick-skinned and thick-skinned, thirty military sticks are nothing at all. All he needs to do is lie in bed and rest for a while. Thinking of this, he quickly raised his hands to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"Thank you, Commander, for the punishment!"
After receiving Ye Mingsheng's order, Ye Tie did not dare to neglect, and immediately left the General Military Mansion with Zhu Shanyan, returned to the military camp, and beat Zhu Shanyan thirty times with a military stick, hitting Zhu Shanyan's buttocks. Blossom, somewhat bloody.
After beating the military stick, Ye Tie asked the soldiers to carry Zhu Shanyan back to his residence. After finishing his work in the evening, Ye Tie took some things to Zhu Shanyan's residence.
"grown ups··········"
Zhu Shanyan, who was lying on the bed recovering from his injuries, subconsciously wanted to stand up and salute when he saw Ye Tie's arrival. However, as soon as he moved, the injury on his butt hurt and he grinned.
"No need, just lie down and don't move!"
While Ye Tie was talking to him, he put the things he was carrying on the table, and then continued:
"You should take good care of yourself now. The task of defending the city will be left to others for the time being. You have difficulty moving these days, so I bought you some food, which is what you like to eat."
"I also went to Dr. Li's place and got you a pack of medicinal powder and some ointment. They are all for removing blood stasis, relieving pain, and reducing inflammation. Remember to apply the powder in the morning and the ointment at night. If you can't reach it, I'll let your men do it. Those people are here to give you medicine!" Ye Tie took out a medicine bag and a medicine jar from his arms, handed them to Zhu Shanyan and said:
Although a man doesn't shed tears lightly, Zhu Shanyan, who was lying on the bed, was moved to tears when he felt Ye Tie's concern. He wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said:
"Thank you, sir..."
"Hey... you are my general, I should take care of you!" Ye Tie patted Zhu Shanyan on the shoulder, smiled and comforted:
After chatting with Zhu Shanyan for a while, Ye Tie suddenly turned to Zhu Shanyan and asked:
"Zhu Shanyan, tell me the truth. Do you have any complaints about what happened today?"
Regarding Ye Tie's question, Zhu Shanyan, who had already learned a lesson, hesitated slightly and said in a low voice:
"I don't dare to do my humble job..."
Seeing that Zhu Shanyan said he didn't dare, Ye Tie was not surprised. He shook his head and said:
"You must be thinking, why did the commander only hit me and not those two bastards?"
Listening to Ye Tie speaking out his heart, Zhu Shanyan suddenly showed surprise and looked at Ye Tie with some confusion,·············
"Don't worry, you won't get this beating in vain. From what I know about the young master, someone is going to be in bad luck, and it's going to be big bad luck!" Ye Tie said meaningfully:
Zhu Shanyan undoubtedly became more confused when he heard what Ye Tie said, but no matter how he asked, Ye Tie just smiled and said nothing. No answer.
After staying for about half an hour, Ye Tie was ready to leave. Before leaving, he seemed to have remembered something and said to Zhu Shanyan:
"After you recover from your injury, pack up and stop reporting to the Third Battalion!"
"ah!"
As soon as Ye Tie said this, Zhu Shanyan's face suddenly drooped, and his expression became extremely ugly.
Didn’t the commander-in-chief say that he would only give himself thirty military sticks?
I've already been beaten with a military stick thirty times, why do I still want to expel myself from the military?
Seeing Zhu Shanyan's expression, Ye Tie naturally knew what he was thinking and said with a smile:
"You're lucky kid. I can see that the commander-in-chief has a good impression of you!"
"The army has recruited some new soldiers to form a fourth battalion. The commander asked me to be the commander of the fourth battalion and asked me to select some key members from the third battalion and bring them to the fourth battalion. I am going to take you Zhu Shanyan How about going to the fourth camp, would you like to come with me?"
Hearing what Ye Tie said, Zhu Shanyan's mood took a turn for the better and he got better again. He nodded affirmatively and said:
"Sir, I listen to you! I will follow you wherever you go!"
After saying that, Zhu Shanyan seemed to realize something. He was a little embarrassed and asked Ye Tie expectantly:
"Sir, can you tell me what kind of officer I can be when I go to the Fourth Battalion..."
Ye Tie burst out laughing when he heard this, and pointed at Zhu Shanyan and said, "You are really a fan of officials. I plan to ask the commander for instructions. Are you satisfied with being a sentry commander?"
When he heard that he could be the whistle commander, Zhu Shanyan, who had a slumped face just now, suddenly beamed with joy and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth from ear to ear. He nodded repeatedly and said:
"Satisfied! Satisfied! Thank you for your cultivation. I will definitely live up to your high expectations!"
Ye Tie looked serious and warned very seriously:
"Kid, please remember something. The storyteller on the street said that all the thunder, rain and dew are your grace!
"In our Fengzhou, the commander-in-chief is the king. The commander-in-chief can fulfill you or destroy you!"
Hearing what Ye Tie said so harshly, Zhu Shanyan suddenly trembled and nodded repeatedly: "Sir, I know I was wrong! I never dare to do it again!"
····················
····················
In the evening, the General Military Mansion.
Ye Mingsheng was crouching on the desk and writing furiously. As the army expanded, more and more things happened. In addition, Liu Zhengxian, who had taken refuge with the government, also reported various things to Ye Mingsheng, so Ye Mingsheng There are more and more official duties that need to be handled...
Although Ye Mingsheng wants to keep power firmly in his own hands, he is not a power monster like Zhu Chongba. He likes to do everything by himself, and he also understands the principle of delegating power.
But unfortunately, Fengzhou is now at a critical stage of development!
In order to make things develop in the right direction and to implement the various policies he introduced instead of being superficial, Ye Mingsheng needs to take a good direction and allocate Fengzhou's resources to the areas where they are needed.
In addition, Ye Mingsheng also intends to inspect talents at this time and make some preparations for the subsequent limited delegation of power. This also causes Ye Mingsheng's workload to become very large. He often works from morning to morning. At midnight in the evening, there is only one time to eat at noon.
This also made Ye Mingsheng very tired physically and mentally. He often fell asleep right after returning to the room. This made Jinyu, who was extremely vigilant, suspect that there was a wild woman outside Ye Mingsheng... ····
Jinyu, who was born as a maid, may have heard and seen too many things, so she has an instinctive sensitivity to things like house fighting.
Knowing that she came from a humble background and had no support from her mother-in-law, she often felt a sense of crisis. She was always afraid that one day, Ye Mingsheng would become more powerful and more and more women would be around her, but she would no longer be young and her beauty would fade with age. Ming Sheng turned into a heartless man and abandoned her.
Therefore, Jinyu has been thinking of all kinds of tricks to let Ye Mingsheng work on her, and a good mother will stabilize her position in the Ye family based on the value of her son. For this reason, she did not hesitate to hide her physical condition and let Ye Mingsheng run a red light.
After discovering this situation, Ye Mingsheng gave her a good lesson to make her understand the danger of this situation. Because he was worried that Jinyu was still young and the risk of giving birth would be very high, so Ye Mingsheng was also very careful. Afraid of killing someone.
After finishing the last piece of official business under the dim candlelight, the very tired Ye Mingsheng leaned back on the chair and silently rubbed his temples.
It's already midnight, but he hasn't had dinner yet. It's been about four hours since he last ate. During this period, he only drank a little tea, but because he might be tired, he hasn't been eating recently. My appetite has also been reduced a lot, and I am not very hungry at all.
Just when Ye Mingsheng slowly recovered and was about to stand up and go to the kitchen to make him something to eat, Ye Kui walked in from outside the study and reported to Ye Mingsheng:
"Master, the man has been caught and put in prison!"
When Ye Mingsheng heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes and he asked in a deep voice:
"Did he say anything?"
"He kept saying that he was Murong Yuliang's housekeeper, and asked us who we were, just threatening and warning..." Ye Kui reported:
Ye Mingsheng nodded and said: "Don't torture him yet, but don't let him have a hard time, just leave him alone!"
"Yes, Master!" Ye Kui obeyed:
Seeing that Ye Kui was doing things quickly and beautifully, Ye Mingsheng's mood improved a lot. In the evening, he ate a bowl of millet porridge, a plate of braised mutton, cucumber strips, coriander, cucumbers, etc. Side dishes.
Ye Mingsheng himself prefers to eat soy beef, but because this era was still a small-scale farming system in feudal society, cattle were important production and labor tools. The existence of a cow can help farmers and do a lot of farm work.
Therefore, in order to promote the agricultural development of Fengzhou and produce more food, Ye Mingsheng could only set an example and temporarily suppressed his appetite, using this braised mutton instead of his favorite sauce beef... ·········
Ye Mingsheng, who was in a good mood after the meal, began to take a walk in the back garden of the General Military Mansion to eat.
This General Military Mansion was the first house with a back garden that Ye Mingsheng lived in. The small courtyard that Ye Mingsheng rented in Yongpingfang was enough for people to live in, but it didn't have much space for activities.
As for the Ye family's old house in Fengshan County, although it occupies a large area, some flowers and plants are planted to beautify the environment, but it can be used for viewing. If it is really not big enough for a walk, I can only walk a few times for a cup of tea. Back and forth.
The back yard of the General Military Mansion is several acres of land. It would take Ye Mingsheng nearly a stick of incense to walk around it. With such a large space and such a good location, I don’t know how many people will want to grab it in the future. Only by losing your head can you get a place to live, and now this is just a back garden for Ye Mingsheng, for Ye Mingsheng to relax and enjoy.
Looking at his spacious and beautiful back garden, Ye Mingsheng felt more and more deeply about the beauty of power...
The feeling of being drunk and lying on the lap of a beautiful woman, awakening to take over the power of killing, is really a taste that makes people appreciate it, can't help it, and is unforgettable!
After taking some time to relax, Ye Mingsheng began to think about business. After dealing with Zhu Shanyan's problem today, he immediately arranged for Ye Kui to take down Murong Yuliang's butler outside the Zhizhou Mansion. Zheng Xu.
After knowing in advance from An Miaoyi's letter that Cui Dakai was coming to help Murong Yuliang on behalf of the Cui family, Ye Mingsheng decided to negotiate with them to see what Murong Yuliang wanted to do, and at the same time, he also planned to give them a blow. This is a good way to take the initiative in negotiations. So as to maximize your own interests.
Ye Mingsheng has been thinking about this matter in the past few days, trying to see how he could stir up trouble without leaving any trace, but he has never thought of any good way. He never expected that the sleepy man would have a pillow as soon as he came, and the other party would personally give him the handle. Come here, let yourself have a seizure.
Since the other party is so kind, then Ye Mingsheng can only accept it and make a fuss about it!
