Chapter 314 Killing the enemy has merit

The sky is blue, the ocean is broad and the air is new, and everyone is alive. This is a joke from later generations.

Although it is a joke, it expresses the expectation of future generations and the yearning for a better life. The previous sentence is very simple, it talks about the environment, and the next sentence talks about humanistic construction.

This is very important in later generations and in the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yijun's carriage was walking on the road. Xu Wenchang, wearing a coarse cloth short coat, sat on the shaft, swaying his legs, holding a wine gourd in his hand, holding jerky in his arms, drinking a sip of wine, and then eating a bite of meat, feeling at ease.

Looking at the old man's behavior, Zhu Yijun really wanted to kick him down.

Zhu Yijun also understood a truth, why did my ancestors say that you should not be too high-profile in life? Because if you are high-profile, others will be jealous and harm you. In fact, this is not a problem for high-profile people. After all, my things are also legal, such as Xu Wenchang’s jerky.

But I was still jealous and wanted to grab it. I even felt that the old guy was attracting hatred.

Just as Zhu Yijun shook his head and pondered the principles of being a human being, the front suddenly became noisy. Zhu Yijun was stunned and his resentment for the jerky instantly disappeared, replaced by excitement.

The blood of pretentiousness hidden in the body awakened at this moment.

As the emperor, he is on a tour in a conspicuous manner, and he is worthy of himself if he doesn’t do anything?

Look at the Qing emperors in later generations, who went on private visits while picking up girls while trying to uphold justice. When looking at the Ming Dynasty, Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty, he went out of the palace to force the women.

I have to give the Ming Dynasty emperor a name, and I will be justified when I leave the palace, and I don’t even like girls.

Seeing Zhu Yijun's appearance of interest, Xu Wenchang squinted his eyes and didn't speak. In fact, he was very satisfied with his life in the past two years and had never lived so smoothly in his life.

The emperor was wise and wise, and the court was well-off and the people were eliminated one by one.

The army is strong and the nobles are self-disciplined. This is already the momentum of a prosperous era when the sea is clear and peaceful. Xu Wenchang doesn't care about other issues of the emperor, such as what is now.

The boy lives in the palace and now he wants to come out and have fun. It’s normal.

Soon the person sent to inquire about the news came back. Zhu Yijun hurriedly called the person over, but did not ask Zhang Jing to send a message at all. He waved his hand to signal the person who inquire about the news for the exemption. Zhu Yijun asked quickly: "What's wrong?"

"When I went back to the emperor, I caught a horse thief in front of me. The local people caught it and seemed to be beaten to death. The people from the government are checking it out."

Upon hearing this report, Zhu Yijun became interested and hurriedly said, "Let's go and take a look!"

The others naturally did not dare to object, and they all followed them. By the time Zhu Yijun walked over, there were already many people around. In the circle, the yamen runners carried swords to prevent everyone from getting too close.

A man wearing a blue civil servant uniform was asking something, and there was a man wearing a civil servant uniform recording next to him.

Zhang Jing knew that Zhu Yijun wanted to watch the fun, so he was by his side. After the official finished asking, he sent someone to call him over. The emperor in his family would definitely not have finished it just by looking at it.

Zhu Yijun really didn't just take a look, he wanted to ask.

Seeing Zhang Jing’s arrangement, Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction, and Zhang Jing was deeply attracted by his heart.

The official didn't know who the young man in front of him was, but he knew that his identity was not simple. After smiling and seeing the etiquette, he stood aside and waited for Zhu Yijun to speak.

"What's going on?" Zhu Yijun asked, pointing to the body parked not far away.

The official looked in his thirties and was a little thin. When he heard Zhu Yijun's question, he hurriedly said: "Mr., this is a horse thief. He has frequently stole horses locally these days, which has been very alarming."

"The government has been sending people to arrest him, but he has not been arrested."

"Yesterday he ran to Liujiazhuang to steal horses and was found, and was surrounded by people from Liujiazhuang. He was stabbed in the heart by Liujiazhuang's Liu Laoba and killed him on the spot."

"The Liujiazhuang village is coming to report to the officials, and the officials are here with their people."

Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "Have you ever seen the body?"

"Mr. Hui has experienced it. He has many stolen tools on him. He has also found witnesses. It has been confirmed that it is the horse thief Ma San who has recently wandered to the local area."

The young official quickly replied.

Zhu Yijun nodded and said, "Who is Liu Laoba? You can still use the sword in the back of the back in the dark. It's amazing. Good sword technique, let me see who it is."

Liu Laoba was quickly brought over, a man in his forties.

He has a strong figure, a dark face and a strong big hand. It can be seen that he is a trainer. Zhu Yijun smiled and nodded: "No, good, very good, have you ever been to the army before?"

"I have worked as a soldier in the Beijing camp, and I am Grandpa Qi's soldier!" Liu Laoba said with a silly smile.

Zhu Yijun suddenly realized: "It turned out to be a soldier from the Beijing camp. No wonder he was so good. How could he go home to farm with such a good hand? Old soldiers like you are all errands. Is there any official who is in vain for personal gain?"

"No!" Liu Laoba quickly shook his head: "The government has arranged it, but my mother is old and blind. I want to take care of me at home, so I simply didn't go."

"The court gave me thirty taels of silver. I went home to buy a house and buy a land to marry a wife. Life was very good, and the emperor's kindness was great!"

When Liu Laoba said this, the people around him looked envious. Obviously, in their opinion, Liu Laoba was already a winner in life. However, among the poor people, Liu Laoba was indeed a winner in life.

When joining the army becomes a way for the poor people, then the Ming Dynasty will not be short of soldiers.

After the military household registration system is abolished, the people will not be restricted by their household registration. They have money and food to join the army, and can be promoted if they do well. They can make meritorious service and even transfer to local areas. There are many benefits, and there is no need to worry about affecting their descendants.

Now every time we recruit soldiers, everyone is rushing to go.

After hearing Liu Laoba's words, Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction, then turned to the young officials around him and said, "Do whatever you should do. I'm just bored and ask."

The young official's mouth twitched, you are asking idle, I'm delaying my affairs.

"Mr., there is no good way to deal with it. Liu Laoba made great contributions to killing the thief. According to our Ming Dynasty law, the court rewarded the silver with twenty-five taels of silver." The young official said with a smile on his face: "We will take the body back and take the case back and cancel the case."

The young official’s subtext is very clear. If it weren’t for you, we would have left long ago.
