After hearing Li Jin's words, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately glared and said angrily:

"What are you talking nonsense? Can these people still be relatives of the emperor today?"

"Not relatives."

Li Jin's face was calm, and he had long been accustomed to Zhu Yuanzhang's moodiness, and continued:

"It's just that they are all veterans who have fought with the emperor."

As he said that, Li Jin invited a veteran behind him, but the veteran's right arm was gone.

"This veteran once experienced the Battle of Fengzhou, the Battle of Hongdu, and later the Battle of Pingyang under the current emperor."

"In the end, I suffered from lifelong disability and was placed back to my hometown by the court, and divided into several acres of land."

"This veteran has participated in the Battle of Poyang Lake and fought with Chen Youliang's subordinates for life and death..."

Li Jin gradually introduced the old man behind him, all of whom were physically disabled and had no place to take care of.

Zhu Yuanzhang only felt his eyes a little wet and his heart was surging. Looking at these veterans who had fought for the Ming Dynasty for half their lives, they ended up like this.

After Li Jin had introduced all these people, Zhu Yuanzhang bowed heavily to these people and kept murmuring:

"Thank you, thank you for your hard work."

"Thank you, thank you so much."

The old man in the lead saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was so excited, and patted Zhu Yuanzhang on the shoulder with a calm expression and said:

"Brother, don't do that."

"Although we are disabled and cannot rely on ourselves, we have a good parental officer."

"Mr. Li built this nursing home for us elderly people, which is dedicated to supporting us elderly people who have lifelong disabilities or whose family members are dead."

"If you want to thank me, you should thank Lord Li. If it weren't for Lord Li, we old bones would have died long ago."

"Yes, don't thank us, I should thank Lord Li."

Zhu Yuanzhang felt very uncomfortable when he heard these old people's words.

These people became like this for the sake of the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty owed them, and Zhu Yuanzhang owed these veterans.

By the end, the court did not provide care for these veterans to see them off. Zhu Yuanzhang was sorry for them.

But these were actually done by a small county magistrate, which made Zhu Yuanzhang slightly change his view of Li Jin.

"I didn't expect you to be able to do some personnel."

Although Zhu Yuanzhang's tone was full of sarcasm, his attitude was much better than before.

Li Jin smiled slightly, did not answer his question, but just said:

"Let's go, as you wish, I'll take you in and have a good look."

....

Li Jin and a few people accompanied by veterans walked into the courtyard of Yangjiyuan.

As soon as he entered the yard, Zhu Yuanzhang saw all kinds of old people, and old men and women could be seen everywhere.

The old lady gathered there to follow the strange music, dancing dances she had never seen before.

But most of the old men gathered under the trees, and it seemed like they were playing chess.

Zhu Yuanzhang's curiosity was immediately drawn out and he subconsciously moved forward.

Empress Ma did not go with Zhu Yuanzhang, but walked towards the old lady.

Zhu Biao and Li Jin were with Empress Ma, and Li Jin really didn't want to pay attention to Zhu Yuanzhang, the stubborn old man!

Zhu Yuanzhang squeezed in and saw four old men, one sitting in the same direction, one sitting in the same direction.

These old men were holding strange papers in their hands and looked at each other nervously.

“One to three!!!”

These old men looked very old, but their momentum when playing cards was so fierce.

It was obviously just one-on-three, but it made him lose the momentum of thousands of troops.

“One to two!!”

The battle situation was very fierce, but Zhu Yuanzhang was confused and didn't know what they were doing.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang saw the aura of these people, he knew that these people were also veterans.

Finally, the game ended, and everyone noticed the stranger Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Who are you? You should be wearing it, so you should not be short of money. Why would you come in the stewardship house?"

An old man asked in surprise when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang dressing very well.

"We heard that the yangyuan here is free to support the elderly and children, so we came here to see it."

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't blink his eyes when he lied. When he saw someone asking, he started to talk nonsense.

The veteran touched his head with one arm and explained:

“Not everyone can come in.”

"You need Lord Li's consent to come in. It's not that simple to get Lord Li's consent!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, his eyes lit up. Is there anything hidden here?

Okay, Li Jin, you have to get a bribe from a sanitary house? You have to ask for bribes from others?

Before the veteran could say anything, Zhu Yuanzhang had already figured out the scene where Li Jin made things difficult for others and asked for money.

"What conditions are needed? Should I give gifts?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Lord Li is Master Qingtian. The best official in the world, how could he accept gifts from others?"

The veteran was immediately angry when he heard Zhu Yuanzhang insulting Li Jin.

"Our adults say that if you want to enter the Yangjian Academy, the first thing you have to do is to make contributions to the court, or you are the only one left in your family and cannot rely on your own."

"This is how you are qualified to move in. Those who want to eat and drink for free and take advantage of the government will be found by Lord Li, and they will be severely punished."

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he felt a little disappointed. That's it?

We are all planning to let Mao Xiang do it, so you can tell us this?

Seeing the nodding around him with an agreement, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Li Jin was doing well here.

At least I took away all the worries of these veterans.

Regarding these disabled veterans, Zhu Yuanzhang hoped that Li Jin would take in a few more to reduce pressure on the court.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was fussy, saw the bad gazes of several veterans, had to leave here and go to another place to take a look.

When I looked back, I found that my wife and queen were gone.

"Mao Xiang, where are Biao'er and the others?"

"Dancing there!"

"Dance?"

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, what's the point of dancing?

After walking a few steps, Zhu Yuanzhang rushed to the venue where Queen Ma danced.

In such a short time, Queen Ma was already dancing in the crowd in a very good manner, and she was really talented.

Zhu Biao pulled Li Jinzai and didn't know what he said. Zhu Yuanzhang saw that no one paid attention to him, so he had to enter the crowd and pulled Queen Ma out.

"How is it, sir, am I dancing nicely?"

As soon as Empress Ma came out, she asked Zhu Yuanzhang with anticipation:

"What's so good? It's like a dancer. Let's go quickly!"

Zhu Yuanzhang was unhappy and poured a basin of cold water on Queen Ma.

"That's because you don't know how to appreciate it. People said that jumping more is good for your health!"

Queen Ma refused to give in and wanted to jump for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang really couldn't appreciate it, so he had to say:

"The important thing is important, let's negotiate the business first."

Empress Ma looked at Zhu Yuanzhang with disgust. At first, she didn't know who said that Li Jin was a corrupt official and wanted to kill him.
