As soon as Wei Ming entered the palace, he saw the speechless greeter, as if he had come specifically to find himself.
"Why did you come out?" Wei Ming asked strangely. It can be said that it is Zhu Youxiao's personal guard, who will never leave Zhu Youxiao even one step at ordinary times. It's a bit strange to run out now.
"I have seen Wei Hou. That's the case. Your Majesty heard that you went to the prison of the Ministry of Justice, so let me go and see if I need any help. It seems that Wei Hou has solved it, so your Majesty will let you go to Dongnuan Pavilion, Your Majesty The pot holder has been set up there, and he is ready to talk to Weihou." After speaking without words, he opened the road ahead. Wei Ming followed. This Zhu You school wants to invite people to dinner when he is all right. It is really idle for him. It's the twenty-second of the twelfth lunar month. Tomorrow is the new year, and you must worship Lord Stove. The government has already been sealed off on the 20th of the twelfth lunar month. Having said that, Zhu You School at this time really has nothing to do.
"Oh, you're here, I thought it would take a while! I just put the primer in, but it's hot and it will open in a while." Zhu Youxiao said happily when Wei Ming came in.
"Which wind is coming today? It reminds you to invite me to dinner again? Didn't you just eat together yesterday?" Where would Wei Ming be polite with Zhu Youxiao, picking up his chopsticks, and taking a piece from the pot? Tofu, you can eat it with a little dipping sauce. After eating, come to have a sip of wine, eat hot pot and drink shochu in the winter, this small life is comfortable!
"I didn't intend to invite you to dinner, but I heard that you were in prison, so I asked you to come and ask." Zhu Youxiao said cautiously while putting meat in the pot. He could tell that Wei Ming really didn't want to be an official. If possible, Wei Ming will pull the blanket and return to Shaanxi to farm tomorrow, where he has 3,000 acres of land! Zhu Youxiao didn't want Wei Ming to feel that he didn't trust him, so that he could have an excuse to slip away.
"That's it. Is Wei Zhongxian's letter to you again?" Wei Ming said with a glance at Zhu Youxiao. Except for Wei Zhongxian, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would do such a thing.
"Don't ask, it's hard to tell. But it's not Wei Zhongxian, so don't worry." Zhu Youxiao waved his hand, Wei Ming glanced at him and chose to believe his words. Zhu Youxiao, the kid, doesn't tell lies. My eyebrows jump when I lie. He didn't see his eyebrows jumping this time, indicating that this is true. It seems that Zhu Youxiao has sent someone to stare at him. But this is also human nature. The emperor gave himself the greatest power, the greatest initiative, basically to do whatever he wanted. Wouldn't you let the emperor send someone to stare at you? If that's the case, Zhu Youxiao is not worthy of running around for him. Because such a person is simply a dead dog that can't support the wall, no matter how much help is vain.
"Well, I won't ask. I went to the prison of the Criminal Ministry to see the Dutchmen I caught."
"The results of it?"
"Leave one alive, and the others are killed." Wei Ming said plainly. After Zhu Youxiao heard it, he just screamed. There is nothing strange. It seems that the life of the Dutchman is in their eyes. The fart is not counted.
"If you want to kill, kill them all. Leave one behind and do what you do." Zhu Youxiao shook his head and said. Putting a piece of meat into his mouth, it was scalded, and he quickly vomited, and kept fanning his mouth with his hands.
"Haha, I'm still impatient after all. Eat slowly, who is going to fight with you." Wei Ming looked at Zhile, and Zhu Youxiao's teeth tickled with hatred.
"Come on, don't laugh, what's so funny." Just after speaking, Wei Ming was scalded by a piece of tofu. The two looked at each other and laughed unanimously, and stopped after a long while.
"Let you laugh at me, let's make you happy! You are really funny." Zhu Youxiao couldn't even breathe with a smile. Wei Ming also felt bad for himself.
"Hey, let's go on, why do you want to keep one?" Zhu Youxiao stabilized his emotions. After eating two bites of food and drinking a glass of wine, he finally couldn't laugh. There were too many chili peppers, and the spicy ones couldn't stand it. After a while, I was sweating profusely.
"Leave one for him to bring back a letter. I guess the Dutch will do it next year, and I don't know where their confidence comes from. I think they have stayed here for such a long time. If you don't fight a guy, you won't be reconciled to go back. That's okay, it's a training for us." Wei Ming said nonchalantly. Even when there was no major naval training, the Ming Dynasty was still able to get through this incident with ease. There is no reason why I have trained more than 20,000 navies and can't beat them. And now that the ship cannon is strong, it feels like a loss if the Dutchman doesn't recognize the way home.
"You are so confident that you can beat the Dutchman?" Zhu Youxiao asked with his lips curled. In his view, there is a certain probability problem in the fight, and it is impossible to determine who wins and who loses before the fight. He is currently studying "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms". No matter how you look at it, Cao Cao won the Battle of Chibi. Afterwards, did not all of Cao Cao's ambitions be wiped out by a fire? Had it not been for Guan Yu to let him go on Huarong Road, Cao Cao would have broken there. He didn't want Wei Ming to become Cao Cao, even worse than Cao Cao.
"Well, it makes sense for you to say that. If you encounter natural disasters such as the eruption of typhoon and volcano in Shanghai, it is really hard to say. However, such force majeure is rare after all. I don’t think we are It can be encountered. And before this kind of natural disaster comes, there are certain natural phenomena, which should be avoided." Wei Ming said grinningly, as if you would feel relieved.
"You're going to be there soon. I still expect you to show my face in the courtroom. I hope that those eunuchs and sour scholars really can't do anything." At this point, Zhu Youxiao didn't want to go on, decisively. He changed the subject and said, "By the way, didn't you say you were going to kill all those businessmen and officials? Why haven't you seen any movement until now?"
"You mean those businessmen and officials who smuggle grain and grass to Liaodong? I also took a look today. There are many people who have been wronged, but few who truly realize that they are wrong. Now it's closed for the New Year, let's wait until the end of the New Year. Besides. Otherwise, the more than one thousand people will be cut off, and the entire capital will be red, with a bloody smell. Then this year will not pass?" Wei Ming said, and Zhu Youxiao nodded in agreement. He said: "Well, I thought about going with me. You said I was also surprised. They killed Liaodong and smuggled food and grass to make a lot of money. As for them, can they take their own lives?"
"Hey, Lao Zhu, you are wrong to say that. Now in our society, after all, there are still few rich people, and many people without money. Maybe you look down on a silver coin, and this silver coin may be a family's one-month ration. Money. From reselling grain and grass outside the customs, one stone of grain can earn a silver coin. What a temptation! As long as there is a 10% profit, the merchants will do it. With 30% profit, they It can be right and wrong. With 50% profit, they dare to take the risk. With 100% profit, they will fight for their lives. If there is 300% profit, they even dare to dance with the devil. This is the nature of a businessman. A businessman is a double-edged sword. If it is used well, it can promote the economic development of the entire society. If it is not used well, it will only hurt itself. So, if you want to use it, what should you do It depends on what you mean by the emperor," Wei Ming said. In fact, he still has a lot of things he hasn't said. For example, if a businessman has enough assets and completes the primitive accumulation of capital, a bourgeoisie will emerge. At that time, it will be natural for the bourgeoisie to seek political status. And what will happen at that time, whether a bourgeois revolution will erupt, whether feudal rule will be overthrown, these are things only God knows. Therefore, in this step, Wei Ming would rather let Zhu Youxiao choose instead of helping Zhu Youxiao choose. Even if something happened in the future, I wouldn't feel so ashamed of Zhu Youxiao anymore.
"The businessman's life is really worthless." Zhu Youxiao said, shaking his head, and after touching Wei Ming, he drank the wine in his glass.
"What do you think. I was an out-and-out businessman before I became an official. I knew their sufferings, their desires, what they were afraid of, and what they wanted. So this time I must be severely punished. Otherwise, things that spring breeze will blow and regenerate will definitely happen. I'm afraid that even if it is severely punished, it will still be effective. What should we do then is what we have to think about." Wei Ming feels a little heavy. Said.
"Forget it, let's take a step and take a step. After all the things are calculated, what's the point of life? Come and come, drink, and drink. If you encounter wine now and become drunk today, it doesn't matter if tomorrow is sad! Come, do it Now!" Zhu Youxiao poured a glass of wine again, Wei Ming looked at everything with a smile, I hope you can be so carefree for the rest of your life.
