There Are Other People Watching Ye Jin?
As the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties, the prosperity of Yingtian Prefecture was indeed worthy of being the first city in Jiangnan.
Jiangnan beautiful land, Jinling imperial state.
Moreover, it was surrounded by mountains and rivers, and its unique terrain had long become the economic, political, and cultural center of southern China.
Therefore, starting from the Sun Wu regime during the Three Kingdoms period, there were already eight political powers that established their capital here.
In the Imperial Palace.
Old Zhu had just returned to the Hall of Heaven's Tribute from the Empress 'bedchamber in the Hall of Phoenix Rites when Mao Xiang was already waiting outside the hall.
"I bow to Your Majesty. Long live the Emperor…" When Mao Xiang saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he quickly prostrated on the ground and kowtowed.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and said lightly,""Come in and talk."
Then, he walked into the Hall of Heaven's Tribute with his hands behind his back.
He had just sat down when a beautiful palace maid hurriedly served him a cup of fragrant tea.
Zhu Yuanzhang took a sip of tea and said,""Tell me, is there something urgent that you want to see me about?!”
"Your Majesty, it's not a big deal. It's just that you asked me to send someone to secretly monitor Shangyuan County Magistrate Ye Jin and report once a day, so I'm here to report his whereabouts today.”Mao Xiang hurriedly explained.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard the name 'Ye Jin', he seemed to still be angry.
"Hmph, what did that little bastard do today?"!”
"County Magistrate Ye didn't do anything special today. He was handling government affairs at the county office from Si to noon. Then, in the afternoon, he went to the village he went to yesterday and loaded a cart of vines back to the county office. He also summoned all the village chiefs of Shangyuan County to the county office for a meeting to explain the spring ploughing. However, he asked these village chiefs to bring back the vines he brought back to the county government. He said that he wanted the villagers to plant them in front of their houses..."
After Mao Xiang finished speaking, he hurriedly took out a memorial and handed it over with both hands.
A young eunuch walked up to him with small steps and took the memorial in his hand, bringing it to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Mao Xiang then explained," Your Majesty, this is the detailed whereabouts of County Magistrate Ye today. Please take a look."”
Zhu Yuanzhang flipped through it casually, and it was indeed similar to what Mao Xiang had said.
Then, he asked," That's it?!”
"Your Majesty, that's all." Mao Xiang hurriedly replied.
Zhu Yuanzhang revealed a satisfied expression.
Although that little bastard was a little lazy, he was still capable. He handled the government affairs well and managed the county in an orderly manner.
Seeing that this little bastard was still quite modest, I'll forget about what he scolded me yesterday.
Who asked our Old Zhu to be magnanimous?
"Okay, then you can leave." Old Zhu's voice also became a little kinder.
However, Mao Xiang did not retreat. Instead, he said," Your Majesty, there's one more thing.”
"Speak..."
"According to the report of the spy who was monitoring County Magistrate Ye, there was someone else monitoring County Magistrate Ye today.”
"Oh?" Old Zhu raised his eyebrows and asked with interest,""There's someone else?"
Then, he chuckled and said," That little bastard's tax is so high. A few months ago, he burned so many people to death. It's no wonder that he's not remembered." Was the person monitoring him the Six Fan School or the Supreme Court?!”
Mao Xiang hurriedly shook his head." No, they're not. They're also from our Embroidered Uniform Guards."”
" Huh?!" Old Zhu frowned.
Mao Xiang immediately felt his hair stand on end as he hurriedly explained," They are indeed from the Embroidered Uniform Guards. However, I have yet to find out who sent them. Your Majesty, please give me one night. I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly."”
Old Zhu was silent for a while before saying," I'll give you one night, but you can't investigate in a big way. After you find out who it is, you can't alert the enemy. You have to find out who's behind this person. Humph... To dare borrow the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guards to deal with that little bastard, the person behind him must be very powerful…"
"Yes, I will obey."
...
I'm not bathing today.
So early in the morning, Ye Jin sent someone to hitch a carriage and brought Chan Chan into Ying Tian City.
After all, he was a real man.
Since he had promised to go shopping with Gu Xiaoliang, he had to fulfill his promise, right?!
Therefore, just as the sun rose, Ye Jin set off with Chan Chan.
Shangyuan County wasn't far from Yingtian Prefecture, so it would take about an hour by carriage.
After entering the city, Ye Jin asked the coachman to wait for them at the foot of the city while he took Chan Chan to stroll around the Ying Tian Prefecture.
As the capital of the Darming Dynasty, the Yingtian Prefecture was still very large.
Moreover, the city was bustling and had a large population.
Although it was still early in the morning, the streets were already bustling with people and pedestrians.
Ye Jin and Chan Chan went to Dai Chunlin's perfume shop first and bought a bunch of rouge and cosmetic powder.
Then, they bought some yarn and high-quality silk fabrics and hired people to send them to the carriage driver. Only then did the two of them stroll around the city.
When it came to shopping, girls were much more talented than boys.
If it was something else, a girl wouldn't have such energy. But if it was shopping, she wouldn't be tired even if she shopped for an entire day.
Chan Chan was the same.
The two of them strolled until four or five o'clock in the afternoon. Ye Jin rubbed his slightly swollen calf and said to Chan Chan," Why don't we find a place to rest? If we continue to stroll, my two legs will be crippled."”
Chan Chan looked as if she had not had enough.
However, seeing that Ye Jin was indeed a little tired, she could only say,"Then..." Alright then."
As he spoke, he looked around and then said excitedly to Ye Jin,"Young Master, let's go to the North City Tower to rest. Not only can we climb the mountain and look far away, but his fish are also not bad.”
Ye Jin did not comment.
Now, as long as there was a place to rest, whether it was a tea house or a wine shop, it was fine.
"Then let's go. It's only late in the morning. There should be a private room on the third floor of his house.”
