Chapter 14: Zhu Yuanzhang secretly investigated Master Ye, and Master Ye investigated Zhu Yuanzhang openly!

The waiter has lost count of the first group of people who came to him to inquire about military and political news.

It can be said to be a very familiar routine!

These people first show off to the private room, then reward them with large sums of money, and then start by inquiring about insignificant business information and information about their Lord Ye.

After chatting for a while, we started to inquire about the really valuable information, which was confidential military and political information.

For such people, he usually takes the money and sells them!

Because Yanmen is located on the border, it can be said that they are constantly battling wits with the Beiyuan spies, so Mr. Ye attaches great importance to the subject of "anti-espionage"!

Therefore,

The strong awareness of spying against espionage has long been deeply ingrained in the people of Yanmen County. If they feel something is wrong, they will directly report it to the special agent brigade.

As for whether he is a real Beiyuan spy, that is a matter for the special agent brigade. They have their own screening methods.

And the fate of most of these people is to become free labor for their Lord Ye, they can also be called reform-through-labor prisoners!

While the waiter was thinking this way, Zhu Yuanzhang answered his question with deep eyes: "We used to be veterans who followed His Majesty in the country, so we are somewhat interested in this aspect."

"Is there anything you can't say?"

With that said, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up the tea cup next to him. Although he was drinking tea, he could not feel the taste of the tea soup because he focused all his attention on the waiter's next answer.

In his opinion, this is his biggest concern!

It is also a problem that will never be forgiven once it touches his bottom line!

His bottom line is that "military and political affairs must be separated." The civil affairs of the county government are under the control of the county magistrate, but the garrison in the area must be under the jurisdiction of the generals appointed by the imperial court.

Military households' farming and other civil affairs were under the jurisdiction of the magistrate and county, but military households' military training and actions must not be at the mercy of the county magistrate.

But looking at Wanglou's job of managing street security, it's almost like a soldier doing the job of a government official.

If it was just him, Ye Qing, who discussed with the local generals and obtained their consent, then there would be nothing to say.

But once the county magistrate takes advantage of the general, and the general obeys his orders, there is no reason to argue, and he must die!

Just after Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, the waiter just smiled faintly.

To him, this is a familiar routine.

The waiter just gave a friendly reminder: "I advise you not to inquire about military and political news. This is the border."

As for the consequences of their continued inquiring, he wouldn't say anything, as long as it was worth the fifty taels of silver he earned.

As soon as he finished speaking, the waiter left on his own!

Not to mention that Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't call back, he Zhu Yuanzhang would not call again!

There is no other reason,

Because he was basically certain that Ye Qing was involved in military matters, which was very likely to violate Zhu Yuanzhang's taboo.

This is indeed a borderland, and spies from Beiyuan often come and go, but he didn't ask anything too confidential, it was just things that were put on the surface.

Can't you even ask about something that is obvious and can be seen when you look up?

Isn’t it a little bit like ‘there is no three hundred taels of silver here’!

Because the waiter was not only a commoner in Yanmen, but also an employee of Ye Qing, the real boss of the hotel, so he was even more suspicious that Ye Qing was involved in military affairs.

In his opinion, Ye Qing went too far in guarding against espionage. It was most likely that in addition to guarding against Beiyuan spies, he was also guarding against private visits from above in private!

Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang fell into deep thought again. His suspicious character was completely betrayed by his eyes!

Of course, there are no outsiders here, and he can completely reveal his true nature!

Queen Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang who was deep in thought, and just sighed helplessly. She couldn't control Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicious character, and he had to figure everything out for himself.

Of course, as an emperor, being suspicious is not necessarily a bad thing, but Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion is really a bit too much!

Furthermore, Empress Ma also believed that Zhu Yuanzhang’s bottom line was correct!

Regardless of the crime of engaging in business as an official, it was Zhu Yuanzhang's unprecedented decision.

He only hoped that Ye Qing would never use his official position to open a brothel or gambling house. Once he got involved in this kind of unscrupulous business, it would be enough to prove that his intentions were completely wrong and he should be killed!

If you dare to get involved in military and political affairs as a civilian official, you must be killed!

These two bottom lines must not be stepped on!

But judging from the clues currently available, it is very possible that Ye Qing stepped on Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line.

When opening brothels and gambling houses in the jurisdiction, must we follow his guidance?

There is so much room for manipulation!

Are soldiers doing the job of government servants?

There are indeed too many twists and turns!

We must conduct a thorough secret investigation. After the investigation is complete, it will be time for a showdown with Ye Qing.

Whether to kill Ye Qing directly or promote him to the capital to help Zhu Yuanzhang suppress Li Shanchang and Hu Weiyong depends on the outcome of the subsequent secret investigation.

But as far as Queen Ma was concerned, she still had great confidence in Ye Qing.

If Ye Qing really knew the law and violated the law, and stepped on Zhu Yuanzhang's bottom line, would he still dare to write a self-report letter for self-assessment?

She didn't believe that someone would really want to die!

If you really want to die, there is no need to go to His Majesty the Emperor and ask for death!

If you want to die, it's not that simple. Why don't you just wipe your own neck?

Wiping your own neck is much easier than the death method given by Zhu Yuanzhang. It is a completely enjoyable death method!

Because of this,

She still firmly believed that Ye Qing's purpose in writing such a self-report letter was exactly what she thought.

The suspicion caused now can be said to be a misunderstanding.

Just clear up this misunderstanding!

Thinking of this, Queen Ma picked up the "Yanmen County Business Travel Guide" again and looked straight at the red star drawn on the guide map, which is where the Yanmen County government office is!

Queen Ma looked at the red star, and her mind was filled with what she saw and heard that could represent Ye Qing's outstanding political achievements.

"Ye Qing,"

"Don't let your Majesty down!"

Just as the two of them were thinking about it, a table of meals that had nothing to do with beef that they had ordered in the beef restaurant's private room were all served.

Smelling the aroma of the food, Zhu Yuanzhang and Queen Ma were immediately interrupted from their thoughts.

Suddenly, a large portion of "roast beef with radish" was carried past their door.

Smelling the aroma of meat that they had never smelled before, the three of them looked straight at it, and the dishes in front of them suddenly lost some of their flavor.

After a while,

After Zhu Yuanzhang secretly swallowed his saliva, he was about to start eating with a cold expression on his face.

But looking at the two people on his left and right, he immediately said "nothing" out of his mouth.

But in the end he looked at Mao Xiang and reprimanded seriously: "Is this what you want to do?"

"eat,"

"After eating, go out with us for a walk!"

Just when they started to move with frowns, the captain of the special agent team responsible for monitoring Zhu Yuanzhang and his party went to the waiter and asked for the details.

Sure enough, they wanted to inquire about military and political news.

And the waiter's words, "Especially the old man, when it comes to matters related to military affairs, his eyes are bright and bright," which helped the special agent team a lot, and also helped Zhu Yuanzhang and his party 'a big help'

!

"Don't expose yourself, just keep an eye on others!"
