Another day of intense training ended. Yun Zichen dragged his tired body back to Quanzhou Prefecture. Zhu Yunwen had already come out of the hot spring and listened to Yun Zichen's report.

"Your Highness, the people brought from Nanjing are basically familiar with water. If you go to sea again, the last situation would not have happened. However, if you want to have combat effectiveness at sea, training alone is not possible, and formal training is required." Yun Zichen said to Zhu Yunwen.

"I know, from tomorrow onwards, all the troops will be divided into two teams to conduct confrontation training in Quanzhou Bay. Now that the big ship has not arrived, the three broken ships will be used to get there." Zhu Yunwen gave the order. The fleet that was heading south has not arrived yet, and the big ship in the cabin has pressed the keel and skeleton. Now there is no silver, no wood, and no boatmen, so it cannot be built at all.

"By the way, is Hu Ye back?"

After giving the order, Zhu Yunwen asked Yun Zichen.

"When you go back to Your Highness, you probably haven't come back. I think that kid won't escape at the last minute." Yun Zichen guessed irresponsibly.

"Forget it, no matter what method he uses, as long as he can get money, judging from the military newspapers in the north, the fleet heading south should have four large ships, each of which can carry five hundred soldiers. So if we want to take the soldiers we brought and the soldiers from Yongning Guard to Shanghai, we have to ask for four large ships. The shortage of military pay is very big." Zhu Yunwen sighed. He had never been a general and didn't know how to fight. Now his first battle was stumped by military pay.

"Your Highness, we cannot rely on Hu Ye all. We must mobilize the local gentry in Quanzhou. Now is a time of crisis, and they should do their part!" Yun Zichen suggested.

"Okay, let's discuss this matter later. Grandpa Huang said before leaving, try not to disturb the people. We are here to wipe out the Japanese pirates. Wait a few days. If Hu Ye does not find military pay, then implement this plan."

Zhu Yunwen waved his hand and asked Yun Zichen to go down, and he had to write a military newspaper for his grandfather.

At this time, the sky was already a little dark, and oil lamps were lit on Lingyin Mountain, and the hut was also a little dark. Through the light of the hut, Hu Ye could see that Zhang Dingbian's hut was quite unique.

A bed, a bookshelves, and a stovetop are very simple.

"Okay, let's talk about it, what's the matter with me when you come here?"

Zhang Dingbian sat down and lit two more oil lamps to make the room look brighter, but it can be seen from his face that he still felt a little sorry for the lamp oil.

"Haha, Brother Dingbian is right? We are here to Quanzhou to wipe out the Japanese pirates. Let's just come over to see Brother Dingbian." Gongshuji smiled awkwardly. At his age, in this Dingbian's opinion, it can also be called a child's.

Hu Ye kept silent. At this time, let these two acquaintances discuss, so he should not interrupt himself.

"Exterminate the Japanese pirates? Those short men came to our country again to cause trouble. When I was standing with my sword, I would kill them without leaving any armor!" Zhang Dingbian's face changed when he heard this. He was about to go out and go down the mountain to kill the thieves. Fortunately, Gongshu was quick.

"Brother Dingbian, now the imperial army has arrived, don't worry." Gongshuji pulled Zhang Dingbian and explained loudly.

"The imperial army? Is it Zhu Yuanzhang's team?" Zhang Dingbian sat down again and asked curiously.

"It's him indeed."

Hu Ye's face changed. Isn't this guy still thinking about helping his dead old boss take revenge?

"Forget it. You said it well. The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy. Since he has become the emperor, I am too lazy to care about it." Zhang Dingbian waved his hand and threw away the cucumber that had eaten most of the edibles. He probably wasn't in a mood.

"Okay, tell me what happened to me. I don't believe you were visiting me by the way. This detour was too far." After calming down for a moment, Zhang Dingbian stopped thinking about the affairs of the Japanese pirates and Zhu Yuanzhang.

"Well, since Brother Dingbian is as wise as a torch, we won't go around the corner. We are here this time to get the property that Chen Youliang has accumulated." Gongshuji told the truth.

"What!"

Zhang Dingbian slapped the table and stood up again, leaving a slender shadow on the wall.

"Fifty-six, I thank you for saving your life, but that is the lord's property. I will never agree to it. As for other conditions, I can agree to you."

"Brother Dingbian, I saved you back then, so you didn't owe me anything at all. And this time I came here to make a deal with you." Gongshuji calmed Zhang Dingbian's mood and then said.

"Trade? What kind of transaction? Even if it has great benefits, I will not use the lord's inheritance as a condition!"

Zhang Dingbian said firmly.

So Gongshuji came to Zhang Dingbian's ear and told him about his deal. Zhang Dingbian's face changed and changed. Obviously, Gongshuji's conditions made him feel a little moved.

"How is this? Is this condition enough? Then Chen Youliang has passed away, so why do you have to guard his property?" Gongshuji said with a smile after he finished speaking.

Zhang Dingbian's face was still blue and red. After a moment, he shook his head. Although Gongshuji's conditions were very attractive, he still couldn't get out of his bottom line. No matter where the money came from, as long as the money was kept by Chen Youliang, he would not let others take it away.

Gongshu jumped with a rare jump, thinking that Zhang Dingbian was still as stubborn as he had more than thirty years ago. Is this worth doing so for Chen Youliang who had passed away?

If he had agreed to Zhu Yuanzhang's surrender back then, the title of the most powerful general would definitely be his.

Hu Ye understood that this treasure was not from Zhang Dingbian, but from Chen Youliang, who had been dead for many years, and those were all ill-gotten gains. Chen Youliang didn't look like Zhu Yuanzhang who had ambitions, that is, he would call himself an emperor, and then plunder some money to satisfy his own slaughter. How could he care about the lives and death of the people?

I remember that at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the people were in turmoil and the people were living in poverty. Originally, peasant uprisings were initiated by peasants. After many leaders had some power, they forgot their foundation. Not only did they not share the land equally for the people, but they instead made more and more exploitation.

After Chen Youliang killed his eldest son Xu Shouhui, he took over Daquan and began to plunder money in large quantities, which was even better than the emperor of the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

Since Dingbian thought that such money would be kept for Chen Youliang to be buried with him, Hu Ye also thought that such money would be dirty.

So before Gongshuji continued to persuade Zhang Dingbian, Hu Ye stood up and said to Lao Qian, "Old Qian, let's go. He is reluctant to take out this stolen goods. I think it's dirty to my hands!"

Lao Qian didn't know what the young master was doing, but he knew that the young master must have his own plans, so he stood up and prepared to leave.

Gongshuji was also frightened by this sudden change. When did Hu Ye be so courageous? Wasn’t he still flattering just now?

Zhang Dingbian was also stunned. The polite person just now was like taking gunpowder, but after a moment he came to his senses and shouted loudly, "Boy, who did you say the money is the stolen goods!"

Then Zhang Dingbian threw it casually, and the remaining half of the cucumber flew towards Hu Ye, and the speed was so fast that even Gongshu Ji had no time to stop him.

"Boy! Didn't you tell you not to make trouble?" Gongshuji cursed in his heart. If this transaction is ruined, how could he go to the overseas fairy mountain in the future?

Facing the flying cucumber, Lao Qian raised his horizontal knife and wanted to resist it, but a white shadow was faster than him.

Xiaoqiang jumped up suddenly, bit the half of the cucumber, then chewed it for a few bites, feeling that there was nothing to ask, how could it be compared with chicken legs, so he spit out and spit out two spits of water, indicating that it was very unpalatable.

"What is Chen Youliang's money not stolen goods? Don't you know what he did? Don't you know that the money is the hard-earned money of the people of Hanzhong? It was Chen Youliang who picked it out from their teeth?"

"The ancients said that benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and trustworthiness are the minimum moral standards of being a human being. Tell me what point he satisfied? Confucianism says that gentleness, kindness, respect, frugality and kindness are the five virtues of treating people and things. Tell me what he satisfied? Loyalty, filial piety, courage, humility and integrity are the five qualities of being a human being. What is he satisfied?"

"Killing Xu Shouhui and calling himself the King of Han was for disloyalty. His grandfather's surname was Xie, and he married into the Chen family and changed his surname to Chen. After he became emperor, why did he respect his grandfather as the ancestor of the Chen family? It was for unfiliality. In the turmoil at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, he not only did not seek a way out for the people, but instead thought about how to make money day and night, and ignored the people's water and fire, which was unkind. He did not accept loyal advice, was stubborn, and disregarded civil and military officials. In the battle in Nanchang, he was almost wiped out, which was unrighteous."

"If you ask such an unfaithful and unfilial person, what's wrong with me saying that his money is stolen goods? If the gentleman can find a reason to refute me, I will take back what I just said. If I can't find it, don't stop me from leaving!"

Hu Ye said a long list of words, of course there is some exaggeration here. Hu Ye didn't know much about Chen Youliang, and he only saw his life in books. However, although it was a bit exaggerated, it was all based on historical records, so there shouldn't be much difference.

After hearing Hu Ye's words, Lao Qian and Gongshu Ji were already stunned. Lao Qian was fine. After all, he often heard Hu Ye's long speeches, and he got used to it after being stunned.

But Gongshuo hasn't come back to his senses for a long time. Is this the one Hu Ye who likes to flatter? Should these words come out of the mouth of a little baby?

Zhang Dingbian thought for a long time and wanted to think about evidence in his mind that could refute Hu Ye, but in the end, none of them succeeded. However, his loyalty to Chen Youliang made him unable to agree with Hu Ye's words.

After a moment of entanglement, Zhang Dingbian sighed helplessly.
