Chapter 718 is unforgettable.

That voice had a very dog-legged taste, but it was this voice that made Ji Wen, who had been slapped three times by Ye Xing, suddenly hardened, he hurriedly stepped back and turned around, and then pointed at Ye Xing and shouted: "You guys come here, he bullied me, you teach him a lesson." ”

After listening to their master's words, those dogs didn't care who Ye Xing was, so they rushed up frantically, if someone dared to bully their master, they would bite it like a dog, and they would hide away when they saw that person biting him.

It's just that these doglegs ignore Ye Xing's strength, and these few people are not enough for Ye Xing to do it.

However, in order to teach Ji Wen a lesson, Ye Xing still decided to take matters into his own hands, and when those dogs rushed up, Ye Xing flew away and kicked those dogs into the Qinhuai River one by one, and those dogs swam back and forth in the river, but they didn't dare to come up.

They really haven't seen such a powerful person, and even if they climb up again, they will only be beaten, in this case, it is better to stay in the river.

And at this time, Ji Wen saw that his subordinates were so vulnerable, and he was a little timid in his heart, so he wanted to escape, but as soon as he was about to run, he was chased by Ye Xing, and after catching up, it was another slap, and Ye Xing's hand that was slapped at the end was a little painful, and he stopped.

Ji Wen's face was almost swollen by Ye Xing, and a lot of blood flowed out of the corners of his mouth, Ye Xing looked at Ji Wen and sneered: "Don't let this king see you again in the future, today's slap will be regarded as the king's reward for you, so this king will not cure you for slandering this king, get out!" ”

The word "get out" made Ji Wen very excited, these two words made him happier than many women he played, so after listening to the two words of Ye Xing, he didn't dare to turn his head back and get out.

After Ji Wen rolled away, Ye Xing looked at the shocked bustards and said, "What, are you willing to pay taxes now?" ”

Now, the backers of those old bustards have been beaten like that by Ye Xing, and they dare not hand it over, so they went in one after another to get the silver, and each one was faster than the other, and they all paid it.

In a moment, the entire Qinglou on the bank of the Qinhuai River was handed over the silver, and Ye Xing asked Di Xiaojie to settle it, with a total of more than 300,000 taels, which was beyond their imagination.

It is indeed not simple to receive so much silver from Qinglou alone, but 300,000 taels of silver is still not enough for 500,000 people to march and fight, not to mention the silver taels and grain and grass that Zheng He needed to go to the West?

Therefore, after collecting 300,000 taels of silver from Qinglou, although Ye Xing and the others were a little excited, they were still very anxious, how to gather the food and grass needed for the expedition?

To do this, they still need to find a way.

But not long after lunch, a eunuch came to spread the word that the emperor had summoned Ye Xing into the palace.

Everyone was very surprised, what did the emperor do when he summoned Ye Xing at this time, could it be that Ye Xing's beating of Ji Wen today was told to Zhu Di by Ji Gang?

Everyone was very worried in their hearts, but even if they were worried, Ye Xing had to go to see him immediately.

After coming to the palace, Ye Xing knew that this was really the case, Ji Gang and a group of ministers stood in the main hall and stated the matter to the emperor, saying that if Ye Xing was hateful, how could he rely on the emperor's favor to be unscrupulous, how not to take them seriously, and so on.

In the end, Ye Xing seemed to be a big traitor.

Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair, also slightly angry.

After Ye Xing came to the main hall, he was not worried, just waiting for Zhu Di to ask.

Zhu Di looked at Ye Xing and asked, "Commander Ji said that you beat his son Ji Wen, but is there such a thing?" ”

Ye Xing nodded hurriedly: "Yes, the emperor, Weichen beat Ji Wen, and Weichen counted it, a total of seventy-three slaps." ”

What Ye Xing said was a little unscrupulous, so the whole hall suddenly became lively, you Ye Xing beat someone is reasonable, and you told me how many slaps you made, Ji Gang stood aside, very angry, and almost couldn't help but beat Ye Xing.

Fortunately, Zhu Di is not a person who listens to and believes partially, so after Ye Xing finished speaking, he continued: "Ji Gang said that you beat his son Ji Wen for no reason, but I don't believe it, do you want to defend it?" ”

Ye Xing smiled slightly: "Of course the minister has to defend himself, in fact, the thing is like this, didn't the emperor ask Weichen to collect grain and grass, after going back, Weichen wanted to where to collect grain and grass, and finally thought about it, the minister thought of the Qinglou, our Qinglou in Jinling can be described as extremely prosperous in development, this industry is profitable, but it does not contribute much to the livelihood of the Ming Dynasty, the only thing that can make them contribute more is taxes, so the minister decided to go to the Qinhuai River to collect taxes, but who knew that at this time, Ji Wen, the son of Lord Ji, suddenly came, Said that the territory is his, don't let Weichen tax, I think, I don't tax can I do it, this is related to the comfort of Daming Jiangshan Sheji, without these taxes, how can the emperor gather 500,000 troops to fight, so I ignored Ji Wen to continue to collect taxes, but that Ji Wen relied on his father is the commander of the Jinyi Guard not to put me, the king of the Ming Dynasty, in his eyes, so he let his dog legs come to beat me, after this hit, I beat him, the emperor knows me, Wu Zhuangyuan, kung fu naturally can't disgrace Daming. ”

Ye Xing's words almost dumbfounded the entire court ministers, and at this time, they really understood Ye Xing's argument.

Ji Gang stood in the hall, and he was even more speechless, it was Ji Wen who was originally beaten by Ye Xing first, but now almost no one dares to believe him when he says it.

Zhu Di sat on the dragon chair and smiled in his heart, he had long wanted to teach this Ji Gang a lesson, but Zhu Di was still Zhu Di, so it was important to get down to business, after Ye Xing finished speaking, Zhu Di immediately asked: "In this case, how much silver did you collect from the banks of the Qinhuai River?" ”

Ye Xing had a harvest, so he immediately replied: "Go back to the emperor, no more, no less than 300,000 taels of silver!" ”

300,000 taels of silver is a lot, Zhu Di was immediately overjoyed after listening to Ye Xing's words, and he nodded again and again: "This Qinglou's industry is really profitable, in just half a day, it will receive 300,000 taels of silver, not bad, but these 300,000 taels are still too little for the march to fight, Ye Aiqing has to find another way!" ”

Ye Xing had already thought of this, so after Zhu Di said this, Ye Xing immediately stepped forward and said: "Back to the emperor, Weichen has already thought of how to gather the required grain and grass at once, but this method requires the help of all the ministers who are officials in the court." ”

After listening to Ye Xing's words, Zhu Di immediately said: "Okay, collecting grain and grass is a national matter, and every minister has an obligation, but what is your method?" ”
