Chapter 68 Lawsuit
Chapter 68 Lawsuit

After saying goodbye to Nianwei reluctantly, it was already night.

It’s not that Ye Xuan didn’t want to stay in Miaoyin Pavilion overnight. It’s just that after he promised Nian Wei that she could stay with him after redeeming herself, this girl Nian Wei went crazy, demanding and exploiting him madly.

Although Ye Xuan can still withstand this pressure, everything should be done in moderation. Too much is as bad as too little!

Only then did he find an excuse and leave Miaoyin Pavilion.

When we got home, the two girls Chunfeng and Xiayu came to greet us excitedly again.

Without waiting for Ye Xuan to speak, he held a small lump of earth in front of him with an expression of seeking credit.

"You two mischievous kids, what are you doing with a lump of earth?" Ye Xuan took off his coat and threw it to Xia Yu, while looking at Chunfeng who was holding the lump of earth.

Unexpectedly, this sentence immediately made the two little girls unhappy. Chunfen pouted and said angrily: "Master, take a closer look, is this a lump of earth?"

After Xia Yu took the coat, she said with some resentment: "Thanks to you, my sister and I, we have been exposed to the sun and wind every day for your instructions. Look, my hands are all tanned!"

"Okay, okay, it's the young master's fault, okay!" Ye Xuan laughed and took the clod of earth from Chunfeng and looked at it carefully.

It was already night time and the two lanterns hanging at the gate were not very bright.

However, when he took it in his hand, Ye Xuan immediately discovered what this lump of earth was.

This is not a lump of earth, but a potato the size of a thumb!
Ye Xuan was immediately surprised and hugged Chun Feng Xia Yu, and asked excitedly: "Are the potatoes fruiting?"

Chunfeng and Xiayu started to act cute again, pouting their lips and looking proud.

Xia Yu hummed and said arrogantly, "Master, don't you see that I weed and fertilize them every day, taking better care of them than I do my own mother."

Upon hearing this, Chunfeng hurriedly said, "I am the one who carries water for irrigation every day. Without me, the potatoes wouldn't be able to grow so fast!"

"Okay, okay, you two are my good children, and you've done a good job!" Ye Xuan said as he let go of the two girls and walked impatiently to the backyard where potatoes were planted.

When I came to the backyard and looked under the moonlight, I saw green branches stretching out on one side of the field, which was lush and green.

Sure enough, they seem to be growing well.

When the potatoes are ripe, Ye Xuan just needs to present them to Zhu Yuanzhang and tell him how he has been growing potatoes during this period. Then he believes that his life in the Hongwu Dynasty will be guaranteed.

After all, potatoes are not only high-yielding, but also not picky about the soil or environment. They taste good and are very filling.

It can be said that it is most suitable for the current situation in the Ming Dynasty where everything is in ruins and the land is barren.

As long as we have this thing, the food shortage problem in the Ming Dynasty will be improved in a relatively short time.

By then, Ye Xuan will not only have made contributions to Zhu Yuanzhang and the Ming Dynasty, but also to the entire Chinese people!
Then no matter how crazy Zhu Yuanzhang was, he would not be able to kill Ye Xuan.

After all, Ye Xuan has made great contributions to the people of the world, and touching Ye Xuan will arouse public anger!
Zhu Yuanzhang rose from the grassroots and he must have known that the most important thing for the people was food. Whoever provided them with food was a god in their eyes.

To touch Ye Xuan is to go against the people of the world!

Ye Xuan felt happy when he thought that he would be able to live a peaceful life soon and no longer have to worry about being targeted by Zhu Yuanzhang.

The next day.

Ye Xuan came to the Zhenfu Division to report in with a good mood.

Although the potatoes are growing well, and he has some confidence in the future of Ming Dynasty, Ye Xuan still deeply understands the truth that he will die if he doesn't do it. No matter how big the trump card in his hand is, he can't be complacent and ignore other things.

Otherwise, no matter how great your achievements are, someone will find evidence against you one day.

Therefore, even if you have to stay here, you still have to report for work when it is time.

However, the atmosphere in the Zhenfu Division was a little different today. The Jinyiwei Yamen, which used to be solemn and even a little cold, had unexpectedly become a little noisy.

The Jinyiwei who passed by were in twos and threes. Unlike in the past, they were silent. Instead, they were whispering to each other as if they were discussing something.

Although Ye Xuan was a little curious, he was not the kind of person who would gossip. Seeing this, he did not ask anything and went straight to his office.

Not long after we sat down, Wang Feihu came in with a pot of tea.

Ye Xuan smiled immediately. This carefree Wang Feihu had a straightforward personality and originally would not flatter others. But for some reason during this period of time, he actually started to learn how to make tea for his superiors.

Putting down the teapot, Wang Feihu diligently poured a cup for Ye Xuan, then approached Ye Xuan with a sly look in his eyes.

"Master Ye, a big thing happened in our Pacification Division today!"

"Oh," Ye Xuan drank a sip of tea with some amusement, and said absentmindedly: "What big thing can happen?"

The Jinyiwei were the emperor's personal guards and were extremely powerful. They were also notorious in Yingtian Prefecture. What big thing could happen to them?

It can't be that some blind person impeached the Zhenfusi in the court, right?
Even if he really reported it, Zhu Yuanzhang would not pay any attention. He would have to be on guard against the Jinyiwei who would take revenge on him later.

No one can be that stupid, right?

Wang Feihu heard this and showed a gossipy expression, as if he didn't know this, and said mysteriously: "Fatty Huang, there's a murder case!"

"What's going on?" Ye Xuan was a little surprised when he heard that.

When Fatty Huang was promoted to deputy captain, Ye Xuan knew that this guy would cause trouble sooner or later.

But he didn't expect that before he could even get comfortable in the position of the deputy commander, Fatty Huang got into trouble, and it was a murder case.

For a moment, I couldn't help but feel curious.

Logically speaking, this Fatty Huang is already an old man, and he wouldn't cause a murder!

But as soon as Ye Xuan asked the question, Wang Feihu, who had been so proud before, suddenly became dispirited.

He said angrily: "I haven't found out what happened specifically, I just heard that someone was forced to death!"

At the end, he seemed to feel that his gossip was embarrassing to discuss, and added, "My colleagues in the Pacification Division were all shocked when they heard about it. I heard that even the commander-in-chief Mao Xiang was alarmed."

"What do you think this Fatty Huang is thinking? He just got promoted to deputy captain and he's already causing trouble everywhere. He's even causing trouble for his appointment. I don't think he can keep his position as deputy captain."

Ye Xuan sneered upon hearing this and said, "Not only will he lose his position as deputy captain, I think this guy may even lose his life."

Zhu Yuanzhang hated officials who abused their power to bully and oppress the people the most.

Especially since the Jinyiwei are the emperor's personal guards, if they do something that forces civilians to death, they will only die a more miserable death.
