Chapter Forty Seizing Power

On the eve of dawn, Ying Yi brought Zheng Wu and the more than a hundred people back to the Crescent Valley.

During this half night, two million taels of military pay was transferred by Ying Yi to the vicinity of Bibo Valley and buried it. Zheng Wu didn't know the specific location, because he was knocked unconscious by Ying Yi at that time. Ying Yi was also cautious.

When he returned to Crescent Valley, Zheng Wu was always following Ying Yi.

He was indeed resentful of Ying Yi's "betrayal". But he had to admit that what Ying Yi said was reasonable. Zheng Yunzhi was in the Ming Dynasty, but Zheng Wu was not like this. He could imagine that once the matter was defeated, Zheng Yunzhi would never end well. As Zheng Yunzhi's son, he had to consider this issue.

"Congratulations to Brother Ying, you finally made up your mind." Sun Xiucai bowed happily.

Ying Yi sighed slightly: "This is not what I want."

Sun Xiucai smiled and said, "The times create heroes, where are you born to be heroes?"

Ying Yi shook his head and said, "No need to say anything extra. Scholar, come and help me invite Zheng Liu, Zheng Jiu and Zhu Bingkun. By the way, Uncle Huai is also invited. Remember not to disturb the county magistrate."

"It's right here?" Sun Xiucai looked around.

Ying Yi said, "Over there." He pointed to the cliff not far away: "Just say I have something to discuss with them."

Sun Xiucai nodded in understanding, turned around and left.

Ying Yi said to Zheng Wu: "Let's go."

Zheng Wuyi sighed softly: "...forget..."

On the top of the cliff, Ying Yi stood in the wind with his hands behind his back. Zheng Wu stood beside him and suddenly said to him: "I am the master and the son of my family. My ancestors have been subordinate to the Zheng family for four generations. The master and his family are kind-hearted and treat people very well. I really don't want to see the master make things difficult for him."

"But you can't watch Zhengxianzun go to the end." Ying Yi said: "He was a Jinshi of the Ming Dynasty and a magistrate of Ye County. He was one with the Ming Dynasty and was even more responsible for defending the territory. And the Ming Dynasty is about to collapse."

"If you say this in front of the master, he will definitely scold you for being bloody." Zheng Wu laughed: "You are so ruthless and unfaithful."

Ying Yi dismissed and smiled: "I am just a commoner and one of the people. The Ming Dynasty has lost its heart and naturally cannot get my loyalty. It doesn't matter if I am against the will of a traitor. I just do what I think I should do."

Then Ying Yi said, "I know that the county magistrate may not be able to rest. So if you are good for the county magistrate, it is best to look at it."

Zheng Wu grinned, speechless.

Soon, Sun Xiucai arrived with Uncle Huai, Zheng Liu, Zheng Jiu and Zhu Bingkun.

Uncle Huai looked older, but he was in good spirits. He stared at Ying Yi with his eyes that had seen countless people, revealing an inexplicable look.

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu were smiling and didn't feel anything strange at all.

As for Zhu Bingkun, he still looks honest and honest.

Ying Yi turned around and glanced at the people.

"I asked the scholar to invite you to come. There is an important thing to do." Ying Yi looked calm.

"What's the matter with you Brother Ying, just ask someone to pass on a message." Zheng Jiu was stupid.

"Shut up." Zheng Wu said.

Zheng Jiu was stunned, looked at Zheng Wu, then looked at Ying Yi, and touched his forehead and was confused.

Then Ying Yi said, "I have a saying that I want to ask you all your opinions. I want to control the army, what do you say?"

"Control the army?"

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu looked confused. Zhu Bingkun's eyes flashed and he lowered his head.

Uncle Huai sighed and looked at Ying Yi with turbid eyes: "It's true that it's not a thing in the pond. Ying Qianhu, can I think that you are planning to defeat the master?"

Ying Yi looked at the old man and nodded solemnly: "It can be said that."

Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu finally reacted, and Zheng Jiu dared not believe it: "Brother Ying, what do you mean?! Predict the master?"

Ying Yi looked at them: "Yes, I have to master everything here."

Zheng Jiu opened his mouth wide, suddenly roared and rushed over. Zheng Wu hurried forward and hugged him.

Ying Yi said: "Brother Zheng Jiu is straight."

Then he said: "Military pay is in my hands, and I don't agree with the final intention of Zhengxianzun forming troops."

At this time, Zheng Wu pulled Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu to the side and explained in a low voice, and the three of them began to argue.

But Uncle Huai sighed and said, "The master is the county magistrate of the court."

Ying Yi nodded: "So I understand him. But I won't follow his ideas."

Uncle Huai nodded: "I am nearly sixty years old. I dare not say much about people and things I have seen, but there are many. The master is not unclear, but he is not willing to think about it. I am old and have lived a few years, so what the master says is what he says. When I first saw you, I knew that you are not an ordinary person. Now it has come true. Maybe you saved the master, but the master will not be grateful to you."

Ying Yi said: "I know. The county master is a person worthy of respect. But I and him have different perspectives on the problem. As the saying goes, the different ways do not make plans. Uncle Huai, you are a person around the county master. I hope you can persuade the county master."

Uncle Huai smiled and said, "Now that the military pay is in your hands, only you have the ability to take out the military rations safely. The overall situation is in hand, and the old man will not go against your intentions. The master will naturally persuade you, but I have a question, but I don't know whether to ask or not."

"Uncle Huai, please tell me." Ying Yi said seriously.

"I just want to ask you, when did your thoughts start?"

After hearing this, Ying Yi couldn't help but be silent and said for a long time: "I don't know either."

Uncle Huai nodded, turned around and left slowly: "I understand."

At this time, Zheng Wu, Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu came over. Zheng Wu had no expression on his face, Zheng Liu and Zheng Jiu had complicated faces, some were angry, some were relieved, and some were others.

Zheng Jiu said in a muffled voice: "I don't know that you are such a person. Brother Fifth has told us that we will not get involved in the army in the future, so we will follow the master. You can rest assured."

Zheng Wu sighed and said nothing.

Ying Yi's eyes finally fell on Zhu Bingkun: "Zhu Qianhu, what do you have to do with it?"

Zhu Bingkun was a transparent person for a long time. When he heard Ying Yi ask him, he couldn't help but feel excited and said quickly: "Only the leader of the great man is right!"

Ying Yi looked at him deeply: "I hope so."

Then he got off the cliff and summoned more than 3,000 soldiers and horses. Ying Yi asked Zhou Li to be a thousand households on the spot. As for Zhu Bingkun, he was not moved for the time being. Because Ying Yi had no better candidates. Most of the soldiers didn't know what happened, but they didn't care. Most of the people here just recruited and chose the most honest good family. They just had a day, and they didn't have that close relationship with Zheng Liu and others.

Sun Xiucai was also asked to take charge of the logistics and be responsible for all the food, grass, military pay, military rules and regulations and rewards and punishments.
