"Brother Zhu is serious, it's okay to say it directly. If you need me, I will fight to the death!" Even though he is Zhu Yuanzhang, this kind of loyalty that does not require money is good, but it is not bad to show it occasionally.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and a faint smile appeared in his triangular eyes. Although this smile looked very warm, Xiao Yun could always feel a sense of oppression. It was a kind of domineering power of a strong man, which gave him a feeling of oppression.

A feeling of having to surrender.

"Damn, you are so domineering? You really deserve to be the Hongwu Emperor?" Xiao Yun nodded secretly. He was still a little scared at first, but after saying a few more words, he gradually got used to it and became calm, especially Zhu Yuanzhang.

The words "Brother Xiao" made him feel more relieved. What's wrong with Emperor Hongwu? He's not just an ordinary person. He has one nose, two eyes, and one mouth. The gun under his body might be one size smaller than mine.

"

After thinking of this, the restraint just now disappeared immediately, and I felt that the momentum was less.

"Haha, the elder brother came in a hurry to find the younger brother. I don't think it was just to let me drink tea and talk. Since elder brother Zhu regards me as a brother, why should he be polite? Why not just say it?" Xiao Yunxiao

He said that at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was not as ruthless as he would be later, so there was nothing to be afraid of, but he was easy to talk to.

Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang put down his tea cup and looked up to the sky. He burst out laughing. After the laughter, the aura emanating from his body became much smaller. He really looked like a friend and said: "Brother Xiao understands me. You are right. I am looking for you today."

Come here, I really want to ask you something important?"

When he heard that he was asking about something important, Xiao Yun's expression became much calmer and he was no longer as casual as before. This was not because he was afraid of Zhu Yuanzhang, but actually because he was afraid that the important matter Zhu Yuanzhang would tell him would scare him.

Zhu Yuanzhang stopped laughing, and his casual look just now suddenly became extremely solemn, with a pair of triangular eyes filled with murderous intent. Even Xiao Yun, who was quite courageous, was frightened by his momentum, and quickly turned around

He glanced at his face and thought: "What a big deal, make it so serious, and put on such a face, who are you trying to scare?"

"You came to Jinling. I guess a big event happened in Jinling City recently. You heard about it, right?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed sharply and he glanced at Xiao Yun quickly.

Now that he has let go, there is nothing to be afraid of. Xiao Yun glanced back at him without fear, knowing that if he asked this question, he must have found out clearly, otherwise those spies would be of no use.

He would not be able to achieve the famous Jinyiwei that would frighten the civil and military ministers of the Hongwu Dynasty in later generations.

Xiao Yun nodded and said: "Have you heard?" But he said in his heart: "You have made such a noise, it is difficult not to hear about it?"

Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "You have always had a unique idea. In my opinion, the law of two countries and two systems is very good. Without diplomatic power and military power, Fang Guozhen will not be able to do anything he wants.

Going?"

Xiao Yun did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang would attach so much importance to the method of two countries and two systems. He was quite surprised. At the same time, he thought, this method is a flexible method that we modern people borrowed from the ancients. Isn't it a good method? It can be praised by Zhu Yuanzhang.

Nothing?"

Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes turned and fell on Xiao Yun's face again, and he sighed: "If those officials are like you, they always put the affairs of the country and the people's affairs in their minds, and think more about one country, two systems."

Fazi, are the world still worried about the lack of peace? Are Zhang Shicheng, Fang Guozhen, Ming Yuzhen, Chen Youding, and the Tatar court still worried about it?"

"What an official can do, no private sins, no public sins, worrying about the world first and being happy later is not something that everyone can do. If everyone and the elder brother say this, then the world will

Why do we need the words of saints, why do we need laws? How can there be any injustice or unkind officials? "

Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his eyes and thought for a while, and said: "Brother Xiao's words are very reasonable, but I have dismissed many of these damn officials and killed many. I thought they could restrain themselves, but I didn't expect them not to."

Instead of restraining myself, I got worse and worse, leaving me at a loss as to what to do?"

Xiao Yun smiled and said: "Actually, elder brother is overthinking it. According to younger brother, there are three categories of officials in the world?"

"Oh, Category Three? This idea is quite new. Brother Xiao, why don't you talk about it?" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a twinkling look.

Xiao Yun thought for a while and said: "Since ancient times, officials have only done it for fame, wealth, and profit. If the officials in the world are dedicated to serving the country and the people, those in power only need to do what they want!"

"Everyone gets what he wants?" Zhu Yuanzhang squinted his triangular eyes, glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "Brother Xiao's statement is quite new. It's just about how everyone gets what they need. Can Brother Xiao please tell me?"

"Everyone gets what he needs. To put it bluntly, he is a person with a good reputation. You give him a reputation. If you are a profit-seeker, those in power will give him benefits. Those who are good with money will naturally give him enough money. These are also simple things for those in power.

big things, those officials are actually ordinary people, and they are responsible for these big things.

Fire, kicking and fighting, what kind of money for footwork? These people are nothing more than the meager salary from being an official. They cannot support their wives, children and children. As long as they are given enough salary, they will have food to eat and clothes to wear. Their wives, children and children will have food and clothing. Where can they go?

Are you still thinking about corruption?" Xiao Yun said casually.

"A gentleman loves money and gets it wisely. Is the salary I give enough to support their family?" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyesightened and his voice became much louder.

"The minds of the ancients were pure, and even Zhu Yuanzhang, the great emperor of Hongwu, was no exception. His salary could naturally support them, but how did he know that in addition to feeding his family, these officials also had to support a large group of subordinates and have certain interpersonal relationships?

, and due to the development of the economy and the improvement of living standards, the original salary is simply not enough? "

Xiao Yun knew that he could not change this, so he sighed slightly and said: "The salary given by elder brother can naturally support their wife, children and parents, but it is a pity that they will be very poor?"

"Will he be very poor?" Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't understand. His salary was distributed only after his calculation. How could he be very poor? "

Xiao Yun said: "Yes, they will be very poor? In my hometown, there is a good official. He is a diligent and honest official. He has been living on his salary for decades. He wears cloth robes and orders his old servants to grow vegetables as a supplement.

He didn't take any money that he shouldn't get, and he never took advantage of it. He lived on that little salary every month, and the family was very poor.
