Chapter 1288 The yellow robe is added to the body!

On the evening of December 9, in a light snow, a well-equipped convoy drove into the Liangzhen camp outside Yijing.
Surrounded by hundreds of guards, Ye Mingsheng slowly stepped down from the carriage. At this time, Dingyuan Marquis Yuan Song, Chief of Staff Zhao Han and a group of generals from the Liangzhen camp also walked over quickly.

"Your humble servants Yuan Song and Zhao Han pay their respects to the Marshal!"

Seeing more than a hundred people kneeling down, Ye Mingsheng smiled and nodded slightly, saying:
"Everyone, get up!"

"Thank you, Marshal!"

After the greetings, Ye Mingsheng, Zhao Han and others walked into the barracks. Because Ye Mingsheng had been traveling for a whole day and was very tired. In addition, it was already late, so Ye Mingsheng did not want to get into work so quickly. So he simply chatted with Yuan Song and Zhao Han and let them go.

In the military camp, Ye Mingsheng had a simple meal, and then began to soak his feet and prepared to rest early today. There was a big show waiting for him to perform in the Liangzhen camp tomorrow.

Although Ye Mingsheng had a good idea, unfortunately, plans could not keep up with changes. Just as Ye Mingsheng washed his feet, a man in gray from the General Coordination Office came to Ye Mingsheng and handed him a stack of files.

"General, this is the information of each shopkeeper in the list of Wanfu and Tongxin banks!"

Ye Mingsheng nodded when he heard this. About two months ago, when he was still in Jiyu, Murong Yuliang sent him a memorial saying that the shopkeepers of Wanfu and Tongxin banks had been recruited, so he sent the results of the open recruitment to Ye Mingsheng for his review...
If this recruitment result is approved by Ye Mingsheng, then these shopkeepers can take office, and the Wanfu Tongxin banks can start business!

The list that Murong Yuliang sent over had about fifteen names on it, listing what positions these fifteen people would hold in the bank and what business they would be responsible for. At the same time, Murong Yuliang attached a brief introduction of each person to the list, such as how old the person was, what he had done before, and what achievements he had made.

Because in Ye Mingsheng's conception, Jiangnan, as the region with the best economy in Da Zhou at present, will play the role of a locomotive to drive the development of the surrounding areas and even the entire Da Zhou economy.

Ye Mingsheng expected that the Wanfu and Tongxin banks would solve the silver lending problem of major businesses in Jiangnan, so Ye Mingsheng paid close attention to and attached great importance to these two banks.

Therefore, even though Murong Yuliang introduced these people to Ye Mingsheng in the list, Ye Mingsheng still felt that the resumes of these people were not detailed enough, so Ye Mingsheng asked the internal security to conduct a background check on these people.

Ye Mingsheng took the file, glanced through it briefly and nodded slightly. The reason why he did not ask Murong Yuliang to submit a more detailed resume, but asked the internal security to do a background check, did not mean that Ye Mingsheng did not trust Murong Yuliang, but that Ye Mingsheng wanted a more objective investigation result.

This recruitment list was submitted by Murong Yuliang, so Murong Yuliang must support this list. Therefore, Murong Yuliang must have selectively omitted some things in his resume.

The Internal Security Bureau does not have such bias. As a third-party background investigation, they can be more objective...

"Zhang Teng! Your internal security investigation is very fast!"

The gray-clothed man, who Ye Mingsheng called Zhang Teng, immediately said after hearing this:

"Your Majesty, you previously asked our internal guards to conduct a thorough investigation of all the major businesses in Jiangnan, so we have also collected a lot of information. Many of the people on Lord Murong's list have been investigated before, and only Huang Kangjie and Zhu Yawei are being investigated again, so the speed of this investigation is very fast!"

Because the background report submitted by Zhang Teng was very detailed, the background investigation of fifteen people totaled more than a hundred pages, so Ye Mingsheng couldn't finish reading it now. So after briefly looking at the background introductions of a few people, Ye Mingsheng put the file aside and waited to look at it again in a few days.

"Has anything happened to Yi Jing recently?"

Facing Ye Mingsheng's question, the gray-clothed man Zhang Teng thought for a moment and said:
"Nothing big has happened recently. Director Wang from the Coordination Office has done a great job in guiding public opinion. Now the people of Yijing are looking forward to your ascension to the throne!"

"Besides that, the six ministries, the court, and the army are all ready. The only major event is probably Jiang Cong causing some minor disturbances!"

Hearing Zhang Teng mention Jiang Cong, Ye Mingsheng asked with some surprise:

"Oh? What happened to this kid?"

“Some time ago, his mother came to visit him at the Ye Mansion and told him that his grandfather Jiang Hailin was seriously ill. So Jiang Cong wanted to go out of the mansion to visit Jiang Hailin, but his request was rejected by Director Ye. Jiang Cong was furious and wanted to attack Director Ye, so Director Ye locked Jiang Cong up…”

"Jiang Cong hanged himself in anger. Fortunately, he was treated in time and nothing happened. Later, the eldest lady came out to teach Jiang Cong a lesson and kindly allowed Jiang Cong to leave the house to visit Jiang Hailin. Only then did she pacify Jiang Cong and nothing happened!" "How did An Miaoyi teach Jiang Cong a lesson?" Ye Mingsheng asked with interest:
Zhang Teng thought for a moment and simply repeated to Ye Mingsheng the conversation between An Miaoyi and Jiang Cong that day. After listening to it, Ye Mingsheng couldn't help but shook his head.

Jiang Cong was the child he personally selected and brought back to Yijing from Luoan. To be honest, Ye Mingsheng did not dislike this child and even admired his intelligence. So although Ye Mingsheng wanted to seize the throne, he never thought of hurting Jiang Cong!

Ye Mingsheng promised Jiang Cong that as long as he cooperated with him, Ye Mingsheng would not only not harm him, but would also protect him and his family and allow them to live as rich men for the rest of their lives.

In fact, Ye Mingsheng did exactly that. Ye Mingsheng planned to confer the title of Duke of Ningguo on Jiang Cong after he became emperor, and then send Jiang Cong and his family to a small town in Liaoyang, where the Coordination Office had already arranged houses for them. These old and young people of the Great Zhou would spend the rest of their lives there in peace.

Although Ye Mingsheng did not intend to hurt them, he could not stop someone from deliberately seeking death!
Based on Ye Mingsheng’s understanding of An Miaoyi, Jiang Cong’s words definitely angered An Miaoyi. With An Miaoyi’s personality, she would definitely not let Jiang Cong have an easy time...
The ancients said that it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Although An Miaoyi is not a gentleman, this saying also applies to her.
The reason why An Miaoyi didn't take action now is because An Miaoyi has a relatively good sense of the overall situation. She knows that this juncture is critical and she needs Jiang Cong to accompany her, so An Miaoyi will temporarily swallow her anger and not do anything to Jiang Cong!
As for An Miaoyi asking Jiang Cong to go home to visit the seriously ill King Zhao Jiang Hailin, it was not because An Miaoyi was kind, but because An Miaoyi knew that Jiang Cong was a child of fourteen or fifteen years old, so he was more impulsive and would not care about anything when he was hot-blooded!
Although Jiang Cong is like this, Jiang Cong's parents, as well as King Zhao Jiang Hailin are all adults. They are not so impulsive in doing things. They will weigh the pros and cons better. Moreover, they all know that the preferential treatment they received in Yijing was because Ye Mingsheng needed Jiang Cong to cooperate with him. Therefore, once Jiang Cong lost this role, they would definitely be implicated in Ye Mingsheng's rage!
Therefore, Jiang Cong's parents, as well as King Zhao Jiang Hailin would definitely persuade Jiang Cong to be obedient and not cause trouble, and this is exactly the purpose of An Miaoyi letting Jiang Cong go home. After all, even if Jiang Cong can't listen to others, he will definitely listen to his family.

And after Jiang Cong has finished acting out this drama with him, Jiang Cong will no longer be of much value. By then, Jiang Cong will probably die suddenly...
Ye Mingsheng was a little conflicted about this. He knew that he had to seize the throne of the Great Zhou, so even though he didn't want to hurt Jiang Cong, he was still the enemy of these old and young people of the Great Zhou. So letting An Miaoyi solve this worry for him was a good result.

Although this is the rational point, Ye Mingsheng feels that Jiang Cong is still a child, and he also admires this smart child, so Ye Mingsheng really doesn't want to hurt him!

After thinking about it carefully, Ye Mingsheng decided that it would be better to let nature take its course and not interfere in this matter. Whether Jiang Cong lives or dies under An Miaoyi's evil hands depends on his luck!
After making the decision, Ye Mingsheng turned to Zhang Teng and asked:

"How are the killers from the Murong family being dealt with?"

"We, the internal guards, did not directly intervene in this matter before. We just passed the hiding information of the Murong family assassins to the Madam's subordinates through some channels. The Madam's subordinates then started the work of clearing them out, but the progress was not smooth, and several of the Murong family assassins escaped!"

When these words were spoken, Ye Mingsheng raised his eyebrows and looked very surprised.

Ye Mingsheng knew before that An Miaoyi had returned to her old ways after being dealt with by him last time and had recruited some killers again. However, Ye Mingsheng did not take it seriously and did not take action to eliminate this group of people!
The reason why Ye Mingsheng turned a blind eye was, on the one hand, because An Miaoyi had restrained herself a lot and did not do anything excessive, and on the other hand, Ye Mingsheng felt that those people were a mob and had been infiltrated by the Internal Guards and were under their surveillance. Ye Mingsheng could deal with them at any time if he wanted to, so Ye Mingsheng tolerated it...
But Murong Qingwu's assassins are different from An Miaoyi's. Although Murong Qingwu's assassins are not numerous, according to the information from the Internal Guards, these people are all highly skilled in martial arts and ruthless. Moreover, they have all been trained by the Murong family since childhood and are loyal to the Murong family. Therefore, the Internal Guards have not infiltrated them yet and don't know much about these Murong family assassins.

Therefore, in Ye Mingsheng's view, the assassins of the Murong family were uncontrollable factors, unlike the gang under An Miaoyi, whom he could deal with whenever he wanted. So when he learned the news that day, Ye Mingsheng ordered the elimination of this gang.

Although Ye Mingsheng decided to eradicate this gang of people, he also had to use proper methods to eradicate this gang of Murong family killers. After all, Ye Mingsheng now appointed Murong Yuliang as the Governor of Jianghuai. Ye Mingsheng needed Murong Yuliang to develop the economy of Jiangnan, and then drive the economic development of the entire Da Zhou.

Moreover, when Ye Mingsheng inspected the flood situation in Hebei and Henan this time, he was able to personally feel the achievements of Murong Yuliang as the governor of Hebei and Henan. The dams, canals and other water conservancy facilities built and maintained by Murong Yuliang played a great role in this flood and protected the lives and property of many people...
Therefore, Ye Mingsheng also had high hopes for Murong Yuliang's work as the Governor-General of Jianghuai, so he could not be so simple and rough when dealing with matters related to the Murong family. Therefore, Ye Mingsheng instructed Zhang Teng to leak the news of the Murong family's killer to An Miaoyi, and let An Miaoyi take action!

Originally, Ye Mingsheng thought that An Miaoyi had a large number of subordinates, so there should be no problem in defeating the minority with the majority. But now it seems that An Miaoyi's subordinates are really weak. They were able to let the others escape even if they planned it intentionally. They are really a bunch of rabble!
"Sir, do you want us to intervene?"

"Not yet! Let's see how things develop!"

"Yes!"

After finishing the conversation with Zhang Teng, Ye Mingsheng, who was tired after a whole day, went to sleep and woke up slowly at noon the next day.

At the same time, the entire Liangzhen camp was filled with the sounds of commands and military whistles as they finished their meal and began to prepare for morning training. At one o'clock in the morning, Ye Mingsheng, who had finished his breakfast, came to the observation tower. When tens of thousands of Fengwu army officers and soldiers in the camp saw Ye Mingsheng's appearance, they immediately burst into deafening cheers. With Ye Mingsheng's announcement, the morning training in the Liangzhen camp officially began.

The training lasted for about half an hour. The officers and soldiers practiced several subjects. After the morning training, Ye Mingsheng began to give a speech under the watchful eyes of the entire army.

“Soldiers! You have trained very hard. I am very satisfied with you. Thank you all for your hard work. It is because of you elite soldiers that the Great Zhou has peace and prosperity, and the people live a prosperous life…”

Just as Ye Mingsheng continued to speak, generals Yuan Song, Zhao Han and others suddenly took out a yellow robe embroidered with dragon patterns and walked towards Ye Mingsheng. They came to Ye Mingsheng and put the yellow robe on him without saying anything.

Ye Mingsheng seemed very surprised to be wearing a yellow robe. He quickly took off the yellow robe and shouted angrily to Yuan Song, Zhao Han and others:
"What are you doing with all your guts? Are you going to rebel?"
