Chapter 1520: Fortunately not humiliated
The emperor moved to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and all the officials had already arrived.
Liaodong is naturally important in the Ming Dynasty. Obviously, it is a major event for Liaodong to suppress the rebellion. Since the governor Ye Jing returned in triumphantly, it is natural that today's court meeting is waiting for the protagonist.
The civil and military officials in the two squads had different expressions, and their envy was still beyond words.
Of course, it may not be that everyone has good intentions, and naturally some people are jealous.
Especially those colleagues who had worked with Ye Jing couldn't help but start to mutter in their hearts that Ye Jing was a bit gentle and elegant, and was once a cowardly person. He could see at a glance that he was a person who was hard to achieve. Why were they obviously better than Ye Jing before, and still unknown, and he suddenly made such a contribution?
It's really a pissing comparison between people.
Because Ye Jing's reputation suddenly became the capital. At this time, this person who was once unwatched, has now become the object of discussion on the streets and alleys.
Naturally, wood is fascinated by the forest and can easily cause some trouble. Ye Jing has become the most eye-catching figure in the capital now, and many of his affairs are naturally discovered.
The more you discover, the more you are interested in, the more you are wondering, this Governor Ye is really nothing outstanding. In terms of the title of the article, he has never done anything good about him. Even in the imperial examination, he is just a little bit of a second-class Jinshi and is not particularly outstanding. Since then, he has become an official, just like most mediocre officials. It can be said that he cannot find any bright spot in him.
But just such a person has become a famous hero.
Could it be...is there something wrong with it? Or is the blind cat encountering a dead mouse? I think that the Yang thief was rebelled in Liaodong and was unpopular, so when Ye Jing suppressed the rebellion, the Yang thief was destroyed?
This is a very reasonable explanation.
After all, except for being the father of Duke Zhenguo and having a capable son, Governor Ye really has little ability in the eyes of others.
Zhu Houzhao's thoughts were different from all officials. When he remembered the report he had written by Ye Jing that day, he had suppressed his rebellion, which reminded Zhu Houzhao of the scene of attacking the Tatars outside the pass, and he felt a sense of mutual appreciation.
Zhu Houzhao was looking forward to seeing the governor Ye again, so he waited around and finally someone came to report that Ye Jing and his son had already entered the palace. Zhu Houzhao smiled happily and said, "Let's meet."
Not long after, Ye Jing and his son walked into the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Ye Jing bowed and said, "I have met Your Majesty, Long live my emperor."
Ye Chunqiu also gave a tribute.
Now, Ye Jing has become the focus of everyone's eyes. When you look closely, you will find that Ye Jing's skin is a little dark, dusty, and her beard is not trimmed, and she looks capable. She looks a little more talented than before, but everyone still can't believe that this person is in Liaodong and turns the tide with just one person's strength.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao cheered up and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, I must have suffered a lot during the journey."
Ye Jing said: "This is my duty. When I returned to Beijing this time, I was ordered to take back all the thief Yang and others. I was finally lucky to be unwilling to be my duty."
When Zhu Houzhao heard Yang Zhe's face turned cold, he snorted in his nostrils, and said coldly: "Yang Yu is very brave, and I will never let him go all out. Ye Aiqing, how did Yang Yu, a martial artist, become the general? I guess he has a lot of followers. Since you are in Liaoyang and have broken his mansion, what did you find?"
When Zhu Houzhao asked this, everyone was shocked.
Yang Yu's rebellion naturally requires all his followers to be killed. But the problem is that he is not a commoner, but a dignified general of Liaodong. As a general, he will definitely make friends with colleagues in daily life. Even many adults in the capital will not be missing in winter and summer.
This is the norm for local officials to take care of filial piety. Usually, each family sends gifts, but the officials in the temple will naturally not refuse. But since there is a gift, there will be gift slips, accounts, and even letters.
This was nothing at all, after all, who knew that Yang Yu would rebel? In fact, most of the officials in the temple didn't know whether they had any relationship with Yang Yu, because Yang Yu gave the gift, which was basically the one who was in charge of the family. Even if there were letters, I would be polite, and the servants in the mansion helped collect it, and then replied in the name of the master.
If it really matters, it is just a ritual exchange in the officialdom.
But now it’s different. Yang Yu became a thief and captured. His home was also confiscated. If he confiscated the house, there would be many clues. Therefore, the civil and military officials in the palace couldn’t help but feel a little uneasy. Because even they themselves didn’t know if they had anything to do with Yang Yu.
Facing Zhu Houzhao's inquiry, Ye Jing said: "Your Majesty, in my foolish opinion, the rebellion in Liaodong is just a plan by Yang thief and his confidant few dozen people. This person has ulterior motives and is ill-behaved. Although he has enslaved many official troops, in fact, he is in a high position in the general. Many official troops, the so-called followers are just on orders. When he found out that Yang thief was rebelling, although he regretted it, it was too late. Therefore, when I led my troops into Liaoyang, most of the ordinary soldiers were pardoned. They were ignorant and were just being enslaved by Yang thief. It is precisely because of this that people's hearts have settled down. The government troops in the towns of Liaodong that were once enslaved by Yang thief, abandoned the darkness and turned to the light. Except for a few stubborn thiefs who have been killed, there are no more traitors in Liaodong."
Speaking of this, Ye Jing paused before saying: "As for the so-called clues in Yang Zhe's family, there are actually some letters and some books..."
Sure enough, there is...
Many people remained silent, but their hearts began to feel uneasy.
If you are involved in a traitor, you can't explain it clearly. I wonder if the thief Yang has his own handle. If there is something in his hands, how should he prove his innocence? This is a rebellion, and it is a matter of killing him rather than being indulged. Even if Your Majesty does not blame him, this career will probably end.
Zhu Houzhao has been very upset about Yang Yu these days, so he naturally hated Yang Yu. When he heard clues, he immediately became interested, his eyes were fierce, and his body leaned forward, saying, "Well, come on, come on, or is it Ye Aiqing bringing those things?"
Ye Jing said: "Your Majesty, I have checked the so-called books and letters, but there is nothing special about them. I ordered people to seal them up, but unexpectedly they fell into fire and burned."
