Chapter 30 I will personally uncover Ouyang Lun’s crimes today
"Wait, what did you just say?"
Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted Mao Xiang and asked.
Mao Xiang was stunned and said quickly: "I said that we have recruited more than 1000 spies who meet all the requirements and have been dispatched to the country one after another!"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, "That's not the case."
"What store did you say you opened?"
"Fried chicken shop, Your Majesty's fried chicken tastes really good, and it's easy to learn, and there are many people selling it! I plan to open fried chicken shops all over the Ming Dynasty, so that every county has a fried chicken shop opened by our Jinyiwei! "Mao Xiang said with a smile.
"Bastard!" Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, "I asked you to be in charge of Jinyiwei, not to open some fried chicken restaurant!"
"Can you do it? If not, give up your position to someone else!"
puff-
Mao Xiang quickly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, opening a fried chicken restaurant is just a pretense. The reason why I do this is to provide a place for the Jinyiwei brothers to stay, and secondly, to make some income. In this way, Jinyiwei will With the funds, we can save a fortune for the court!”
"Your Majesty, please enlighten me!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face improved a little, maybe because he was a little hungry, so he asked: "What does the fried chicken you mentioned look like?"
Mao Xiang's face lit up and he hurriedly said: "I actually brought you a special portion of fried chicken this time. Why don't you give it a try, Your Majesty?"
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, "I'm just a little hungry, please bring it."
"Your Majesty, please wait a moment." Mao Xiang turned around and went out.
After a while, Mao Xiang came in with a food box, brought it to Zhu Yuanzhang and opened the food box. In an instant, a strong aroma of chicken filled Zhu Yuanzhang's nostrils.
"It smells so good!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was instantly attracted by the golden and crispy fried chicken.
"Please enjoy, Your Majesty!"
Zhu Yuanzhang swallowed, reached out and tore off a large chicken drumstick, and then bit into it. First, there was the crispy skin, and then there was the juicy chicken. It was a super enjoyment!
Three under five divided by two.
Zhu Yuanzhang finished building a whole chicken by himself.
Wang Zhong beside him swallowed crazily and couldn't help but praise: "This is the first time I have seen His Majesty eat so deliciously!"
Slightly——
Zhu Yuanzhang burped.
"Mao Xiang, your fried chicken restaurant is doing well!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your compliment!"
Mao Xiang's face lit up. With Zhu Yuanzhang's words, his fried chicken restaurant was saved.
"By the way, how are you doing with grilled fish?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked suddenly.
Forehead. Mao Xiang looked embarrassed and said, "Back to Your Majesty, I have been busy training spies and opening a fried chicken restaurant recently. I am not good enough at grilling fish."
Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, "Since you are good at cooking fried chicken, forget it this time, but you still have to learn how to grill fish well. When you return to the capital, you have to make both fried chicken and grilled fish for me!"
Hearing this, Mao Xiang was speechless.
In fact, the fried chicken was not made by him, but by his subordinate Ah Hu. Perhaps because he really had no talent in making food, Mao Xiang was not good at making grilled fish or fried chicken.
Why!I just want to be a good leader of the Jinyi Guard, why should I learn to make things every day?
What went wrong?However, Mao Xiang did not tell Zhu Yuanzhang the truth. After all, grilled fish and fried chicken had become his talisman.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will work hard to make grilled fish and fried chicken!"
Mao Xiang hurriedly said.
After that, Mao Xiang recounted some of Ouyang Lun's activities during this period, which were nothing more than fishing, grilling fish, traveling with Princess Anqing, going to the stock exchange platform, drinking and reciting poems with friends, etc., as for The time spent on official business is almost zero.
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang became angry all of a sudden.
"This Ouyang Lun is really cool!"
"Apart from these, how is the investigation of the collusion between Ouyang Lun and Yongan Magistrate Mao Youfu going?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked in a deep voice.
"Back to Your Majesty, regarding the Mao family's shares in the stock exchange, it has been found that this seems to be a normal investment behavior, and there is no problem of transfer of interests. As for Mao Youfu shielding Ouyang Lun and covering up for Kaiping County, there is currently no news. Conclusive evidence!”
Mao Xiang said sarcastically.
His tone was extremely careful, for fear of accidentally making Zhu Yuanzhang angry.
"What a waste! The stock exchange itself has problems!"
Zhu Yuanzhang cursed.
Mao Xiang said nothing.
"Do you think that I didn't ban the stock exchange and didn't deal with Ouyang Lun, so I was covering up Ouyang Lun?"
Zhu Yuanzhang asked.
Mao Xiang said nothing.
Zhu Yuanzhang roared: "Then Ouyang Lun is indeed my son-in-law, Zhu Yuanzhang. If he does something corrupt, perverts the law, and harms the people, I will never tolerate it!"
Mao Xiangren said nothing.
"Speak quickly, are you mute?" Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily.
Mao Xiang didn't open his mouth, and he had nowhere to vent his anger.
puff-
Mao Xiang knelt down again, "I'm not doing my job well, please punish me!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang choked for words and said depressedly: "I haven't even said that I would punish you, but you knelt down on your own. You are really conscious."
"I won't punish you for the time being. Just follow me and take a good look. I will personally uncover Ouyang Lun's crimes today and bring him to justice!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" Although Mao Xiang said this, he was repelled in his heart.
What if His Majesty failed to deal with Ouyang Lun last time, but he can do it this time? Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know what Mao Xiang was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely behead Mao Xiang first, and then say, "You bastard, you have been living in Kaiping County for a while, and you dare to question me!" "Go, go to the county government office!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was considered to have had enough food and sleep. With a wave of his hand, he led Mao Xiang and the entire caravan towards the county government office.
Zhu Yuanzhang naturally did not ride in the carriage, but took a leisurely two-wheeled carriage.
Zhu Yuanzhang handed the drawings of the two-wheeled vehicle to the Ministry of Industry as soon as he returned to Nanjing, and the Ministry of Industry also made a copy of the two-wheeled vehicle that looked exactly the same. However, Zhu Yuanzhang always felt something was wrong when riding the imitated two-wheeled vehicle. Order something and get on a two-wheeler in Kaiping County again. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately understood that it was stable! The two-wheelers imitated by the Ministry of Industry are extremely stiff and unremarkable, and the wheels are made of wooden wheels. However, the two-wheelers in Kaiping County are not. The round iron frame is covered with something dark and soft, and the wheels are made of wood. There are many details that Zhu Yuanzhang cannot understand at all.
When he came to the county government office, Zhu Yuanzhang directly threw two gold ingots over without waiting for the county government office to speak!
Walking into the county government office coolly.
We have money! I earned nearly 2 taels from three hundred kilograms of chili peppers. A mere 1000 taels is nothing at all!Besides, he came here to make more money. These are necessary investments.
Come to the backyard.
Sure enough, I saw a figure lying on a rocking chair in the pavilion by the lake. Who else could it be if it wasn't Ouyang Lun! Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to speak, he saw a familiar figure appearing next to Ouyang Lun (End of this chapter)
