Chapter 541 I am the first emperor of Ming Dynasty(1/2)

Xu, who was engaged in the red-haired business, was also investigated.

At that time, Xu Zhen, the head of the Xu family, was drinking tea in the teahouse. Xu Zhen, who was fighting against the verbal battle, was taken to the Fushi Office for investigation.

Xu Zhen's real name was Xu Qingtuo. Later, he became famous and changed his name to Xu Zhen.

He is from Guangzhou. When his mother was pregnant with him, she dreamed that a big star fell into her arms. There was a man with a tall crown next to the star master, saying that this son was extraordinary.

When he was born, it was November. It was snowing heavily in Guangzhou, and the grass and trees were all ice-shaped. His mother died of dysfunction. Everyone was surprised at that time and said that he was a bad star.

In fact, when Xu Zhen grew up, he realized that his mother got married with a child and was not pregnant with his father's child. This is why she used the so-called dream-making theory to highlight her children's extraordinaryness.

Xu Zhen's mother died of dysfunction and her mother lost her son to live. Old Man Xu is an honest man who raised Xu Zhen and raised him. Xu Zhen was filial to support Old Man Xu to live in his old age.

Xu Zhen was called a bastard when he was a child, so he fought with others. As he fought from the dead, this fierce aura was developed and he really became a bad star...

When Xu Zhen was fifteen years old, he ran to the sea to hang out. It was like a dragon entering the sea. Xu Zhen's business on the sea was getting bigger and bigger. At the age of thirty, he had made a huge family business.

He had twelve three-masted large ships, nearly three hundred two-masted thousand-material ships, and countless small sampans. He was a veritable pirate in the entire Nanyang, calling himself the King of Pinghai.

When he was thirty, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty suddenly issued an order to open the sea. All ships could trade normally as long as they registered merchants in the Maritime Bureau and paid taxes.

Xu Zhen was ecstatic. When he heard the news, he went to the Mizhou Maritime Mansion to register the ship. The business was getting bigger and bigger. He had been doing business with the Red-haired Secret Prostitute and the Nanyang Kunlun slave.

But when he was dealing with things in the Nanya, he was taken away by the Tiqi.

However, Xu Zhen and Zhao Kairui's treatment were completely different. Zhao Kairui's family found four people and thousands of female households. Zhao Kairui was admitted to death jail since he was imprisoned.

Xu Zhen neither had the punishment of the Five Poisons nor did he sternly force him to confess, but he just arrested him, and Xu Zhen could still see his shopkeeper in prison.

This is the difference. The investigation of Xu Zhen has long been verified. Tiqi knows clearly what he did and didn't do.

"Boss, this is our account this month. We are used to drifting on the sea and we are not so clear about the matter on the ground. Who should we ask for to make the money work?" The shopkeeper closed the account and said worriedly.

Xu Zhen has been arrested for half a month and has not been questioned, let alone asking, the shopkeeper doesn't know where to use the money.

"Who is there to get the silver?" Xu Zhen said with his teeth: "Let your Majesty get the silver!"

"Ah?" The shopkeeper looked at his boss blankly, he didn't understand what he meant.

Xu Zhen said helplessly: "You don't look at what this place is? This is the Heavenly Prison, the Imperial Prison! It's useless to find anyone to make money."

"Ah, that's how..." The shopkeeper then realized it and immediately said as if he was betrayed: "Isn't this over? There is not even a place to spend money, so it's not...you want..."

Xu Zhen slapped the table, bit the grass stem, and said in a muffled voice: "Hey, say less discouraging words!"

"I guess the great officials of our Ming Dynasty are still talking about it. Wait. When they come up with the result, should I behead my head, exile, or fine me? It's a matter of being settled."

Xu Zhen's life experience did not make him cynical, but instead made him very optimistic.

He was not particularly afraid of death. On the contrary, he was very grateful to his mother for not letting him die; he was very grateful to his honest father for not strangling him to death and pulling him up; he was very grateful to God for not taking him away as a evil star and making trouble.

Therefore, after Xu Zhen entered the Fushu Division, he didn't complain much. Even if he died, he didn't care.

Where can anyone who makes a living at sea do not have blood on his hands?

He killed too many people, including the Ming Dynasty, Japanese pirates, Korean, Chameng, Jiaozhi, Persia, etc., and he all fought with them at sea.

But that's all in the past.

After the Mizhou Maritime Warehouse Department was established, all commercial ships were included in the jurisdiction, there was a hidden rule, that is, no bows or guns were allowed to enter the port.

Another rule that accompanies this rule is that the Ming Dynasty merchants must not attack each other at sea, otherwise even ships carrying the entire merchants must not enter the port.

The bows of all registered merchant ships are marked with strings in white paint, and they are fighting each other at sea, and they can basically determine where they are.

During the Sui, Tang, Song and Yuan dynasties, the carrier pigeon was called a pigeon, which was raised by the boat master. Once the victim was attacked and robbed at sea, he could release the pigeon to complain.

Although the efficiency is low and the objective facts of difficulty in investigation exist, the Daminghai, which is not bound by law and the law-bound Daminghai is completely different.

While the emperor set rules, he relaxed many sea trade restrictions, including some forbidden objects from the past, which could enter the port openly, such as bows, crossbows, guns, and large three-masted ships.

Therefore, after the opening of the sea, Xu Zhen never used a knife with the Ming Dynasty merchant ships again.

Logically speaking, he did not know what his fault was.

"For business matters, I have to worry about the boss and take care of it. I thought the court took me and asked me to buy my life. Unfortunately, it's not." Xu Zhen said with a little confused.

He didn't know why he was arrested, and he did not commit crimes in the Ming Dynasty.

Ten days later, Xu Zhen and Zhao Kairui were sent to the capital, and their treatment was different.

Xu Zhen was not delicious and delicious along the way, she was definitely full. She had no shackles, no shackles, and no prison car. She was just an ordinary car driver.

Zhao Kairui and his elders were very unfortunate. They were a whole set of shackles and shackles and prison vans.

It took only fifteen days to go from the South Yai to the North Yai. Someone dared to rob the prison car!

This is Tiqi's prison car!

Xu Zhen thought he was the master who was not afraid of heaven or earth, but he and his shopkeeper had never dared to rob the prison cart, just wanted to make money to beg for life.

But I don’t know where people came from, but they actually dared to rob the prison car!

The result was naturally that the Tiqi cavalry won completely, and all the visitors left their lives on both sides of the official road.

After Xu Zhen arrived in Tongzhou, he parted ways with Zhao Kairui and escorted Zhao Kairui and his group to Beijing overnight. Xu Zhen rested in Tongzhou for a day before entering the capital through Chaoyang Gate.

The black cannons on the city gate of Chaoyang Gate scared him. He was fired by so many cannons, and even his ashes were raised.

Soon, Xu Zhen was sent to Dali Temple for custody, rather than to the Northern Town Fushi.

It took more than half a month to live here. Xu Zhen did not wait for the Tiqi or the tiger-headed guillotine, but waited for the doctor of the Ministry of Rites.

The doctor of the Ministry of Rites said very seriously: "When you are facing a saint, you must think twice when speaking, and you must not speak wildly, let alone swear."

"When entering the hall, you must bow three times and kowtow five times. This is a great ceremony. You must call the grass people and shout long live the three times."

"When your Majesty didn't say that you should flatten you, you should bow your head and not move around."

"Someone will come to take you to take a shower and change clothes later."

Xu Zhen interrupted the preaching of the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, and he said with confusion: "Why do you need to meet the saint?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "You are so peaceful in Dali Temple. You are almost quarreling in the morning because of your affairs."

"Don't ask, say whatever Your Majesty asks you. Don't lie. That's a serious crime to deceive the king. If you want to live, just tell me everything. Understand it, understand?"

Xu Zhen said with a tingling head like a little chick pecking at rice: "I understand, I understand."

Face the Saint... He never imagined that he could meet His Majesty himself.

No matter from any aspect, for Xu Zhen, His Majesty is a good person.

His Majesty ascended the throne, Huang Xiaoyang's pirates were put down, and all the merchant ships became the Ming merchant ships and were no longer the targets of the inspection department. They had wronged and had some places to complain. Although the Maritime Bureau kept making cases, they accepted complaints.

Your Majesty ascended the throne, and their maritime merchants will no longer kill me like in the past, and I will kill you, and there will be fire everywhere, and there will be dead everywhere. Today is a maritime merchant and tomorrow is pirates.

Xu Zhen couldn't tell so many great truths. He only knew that when His Majesty ascended the throne, they lived like individuals, not like the past when they were not human or ghosts.

Xu Zhen was taken to the martial arts lecture hall, entered Juxian Pavilion, and turned right on the first floor.

He looked at this rather simple imperial study room with doubt. This was completely different from what he thought. He thought that His Majesty's place was paving the road with silk, ivory as doors, and glazed windows.

But this place is so simple.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw the emperor sitting on a soft rattan chair and carefully reviewing the memorials.

Even if the regular clothes His Majesty wore, he could recognize them at a glance, and that was His Majesty.

It was almost exactly the same as the Majesty he thought in his heart.

He knelt three times and kowtowed five times, and gave a great gift. He called himself a cannibal and called for his blessings.

"I am safe, I will give you a seat." The emperor's voice was quite easy-going.

Only half of Xu Zhen's ass was placed on the chair. He was very nervous, sweating behind him, and even his hands were shaking.

He suddenly remembered a rumor, that was, His Majesty did not live in the palace. The moment he saw His Majesty, he also understood a truth, that is, where the emperor was, the palace.

It looks simple here, but because His Majesty is there, it looks magnificent.

Zhu Qiyu finally finished reviewing the memorial. He was in his hand with the memorial. The other party was advancing. The earthquake in the local officialdom in Sichuan was shaking. There were three fourth-rank officials and one third-rank officials in the court, and then they fell to the stage.

He handed the memorial to Xing'an before looking at Xu Zhen.

This man looks a little thin and dark, and the traces of wind and sun exposure on the sea for a long time are particularly obvious.

"Xu Zhen, I have seen your case and the Tiqi has also completed the investigation and repair. There is no problem. If you walk out of Juxian Pavilion today, you will be fine." Zhu Qiyu took a sip of water and gave Xu Zhen a reassurance.

The female household of Ji Ling is from the Ming Dynasty, and the Red-haired Fan and Kunlun slaves are not from the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Qiyu was the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty first, and what he wanted to protect was the interests of the Ming Dynasty.

"Zhi." Xu Ling immediately knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long You."

Zhu Qiyu immediately said, "Get up and talk, I don't like others kneeling."

"Yes." Xu Zhen stood up again, but he didn't know whether to sit or not.

The doctor of the Ministry of Rites taught him how to thank him, but did not teach him whether the whole lecture could be sat or only once.

He was a little anxious and didn't know who could help him.

Zhu Qiyu smiled and said, "Sit down, don't be restrained."
