Daming: I can’t kill such a greedy prince-in-law?

Chapter 345 Where can I get the entry fee of taels? (Please subscribe!!)

Stink? !

Ji Gang frowned.

After thinking about it, Ji Gang came to the gate of Zongren Mansion.

bang bang-

Knock on the door.

After a while, a questioning voice sounded from the door.

"Who?"

"I—Ji Gang, Jinyiwei!"

"do not know!"

"." Ji Gang continued with an embarrassed look on his face: "I am Ji Gang, the commander of Jinyiwei. Please tell Prince Consort Ouyang that I want to see him!"

"Is the Prince Consort the one you want to see? Commander, Commander? What rank? If you don't have a rank, don't knock on the door!"

"." Ji Gang's face was filled with black lines.

The two Jin Yiwei men behind him were also holding back their smiles, almost constipated.

Without being able to enter the Zongren Mansion, he would not be able to figure out the internal situation of the Zongren Mansion, and he would not be able to explain to Zhu Yuanzhang.

Two Jin Yiwei came over.

"Sir, I heard that you need to pay an entrance fee if you want to enter the clan mansion."

"That's right, everyone who came to see Ouyang Prince Consort before paid an entrance fee to get in!"

Hearing this, Ji Gang also suddenly realized, "Ouyang Prince Consort has always had this rule, but I'm surprised!"

“How much is the entry fee?”

"It seems to be thirty thousand silver," Jin Yiwei's subordinate said.

"How much?!" Ji Gang's eyes widened with disbelief on his face, "Are you sure it's 30,000 taels of silver, not 30,000 copper coins?"

Jin Yiwei's men said with great determination: "Sir, it's thirty thousand taels of silver, and thirty thousand copper coins is only thirty taels. This is not at all in line with Ouyang's consort's temperament."

"."Ji Gang.

Another Jinyiwei subordinate continued: "Sir, I see that others come here carrying boxes! It must be thirty thousand taels of silver, or even more!"

"If you take 30,000 copper coins, you will probably throw them out together with the money."

"."Ji Gang.

"Damn, thirty thousand taels. I haven't had that much salary in ten years!" Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, then looked at the two Jin Yiwei men, "Ouyang Prince Consort charges such a high entry fee and is suspected of corruption and bribery. Why didn't you report it? ?! Could it be that you all took money from Ouyang’s consort?"

After hearing Ji Gang's words, the two Jin Yiwei men were not afraid, but looked quite surprised.

"Sir, not only do we know about this, but your Majesty and the others also know about it!"

"Yes, I heard from other Jinyiwei brothers that even His Majesty the Emperor has to pay an entrance fee to enter Ouyang Consort's gate. His Majesty didn't say anything. We don't dare to talk nonsense!"

"Sir, don't you know yet?"

"Of course I know!" Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, then said: "I'm just testing you!"

"Okay, I don't need you here anymore, go back to the Jinyiwei Yamen!"

"Yes!"

"My subordinates say goodbye."

The two Jin Yiwei men left quickly.

After the two Jin Yiwei men left, Ji Gang turned around and looked at the gate of the clan's mansion again. The tightly closed door was like a cold iron wall blocking his way into the clan's mansion.

"How can I have thirty thousand taels of silver?"

Ji Gang frowned.

Ji Gang rose from an ordinary Jinyiwei all the way up, and his ability to be the commander of the Jinyiwei was all due to his loyalty and ruthlessness to Zhu Yuanzhang, and he made great contributions in major cases such as the arrest of Ouyang Lun and the arrest of Hu Weiyong.

Unlike Jiang Yu and Mao Xiang, Ji Gang was not interested in money at all. He became Jin Yiwei purely because he liked it and to be loyal to Zhu Yuanzhang.

So even though he was already a fellow commander of the Jinyiwei, his total worth was not enough to reach 30,000 taels, so he couldn't afford the 30,000 taels entry fee.

"We must enter the clan's mansion today!"

Ji Gang made a decision in his mind and quickly looked around. After making sure that no one was around, Ji Gang came to a hidden place on the wall of the Zongren Mansion at an extremely fast speed.

Inside the clan mansion.

In an open space in the garden, there was a pot standing, and something seemed to be cooking in the pot.

Ouyang Lun, Princess Anqing, Tang Miaomiao, Xu Miaoyun, Zhu Wenhai, Zhou Bao and others were all there.

Everyone stared at the pot in front of them expectantly.

"Husband, why does this stuff smell so bad but taste so delicious? And the more I eat it, the more addictive it becomes! I can't wait to eat it every day!"

Princess Anqing said quite excitedly.

"Husband, this snail and lion noodle you made is so delicious!"

While Tang Miaomiao was speaking, his saliva almost flowed out.

"Husband, are you okay? I can't wait any longer!"

Xu Miaoyun never moved her eyes away from the pot.

Zhu Wenhai and Zhou Bao were also waiting with bowls in their hands.

Ouyang Lun waved his hand, "Why are you so anxious? This snail and lion noodle needs to be cooked a few more times. It must be cooked thoroughly before it tastes delicious!"

"hold on!"

That's right, Ouyang Lun and others are cooking snail and lion noodles.

Snail noodle is one of Ouyang Lun's favorite snacks in his previous life. It has a unique flavor of spicy, refreshing, fresh, sour and hot. The delicious taste of snail noodle is also due to its unique soup, which is composed of snail, Shannai, It is formulated with star anise, cinnamon, cloves, various chili peppers, and other natural spices and seasonings.

A few nights ago, Ouyang Lun suddenly felt that there was no taste in his mouth, so he thought of this snail rice noodle.

It happened that he had studied the making of this snail and lion noodle, so he started cooking. There are two most important things in making snail and lion noodle: the snail lion soup and the noodles.

The snail soup is simmered with snail meat in large bone soup and served with red chili oil. The rice noodles are rice noodles, which are strip-shaped and silk-shaped rice products made from rice as raw material through processes such as soaking, cooking and pressing.

As for side dishes, peanuts, etc., just add them according to your own preferences.

When it was first made, no one would eat it because the smell was too unique. Only Ouyang Lun himself was happy eating it. Later, Tang Miaomiao saw that Ouyang Lun was eating happily, so he mustered up the courage to take a bite and immediately fell in love with Ouyang Lun. Among the team eating snail noodles.

After that, An Qing, Xu Miaoyun, etc. also joined.

During this period of time, eating snail and lion noodles has become a reserved program in everyone's house.

After cooking for a while, Ouyang Lun went up to smell it, and then nodded with enjoyment, "This is the smell! It's almost ready!"

Hearing Ouyang Lun's words, Princess Anqing, Tang Miaomiao and others picked up their bowls and came to Ouyang Lun.

"Get in line!"

“There’s only one bowl per person!”

Just when Ouyang Lun was about to give everyone the snail and lion powder.

A man fell from the sky. To be more precise, he was knocked down from the sky.

Swish--

Ouyang Lun and others cast their gazes over. This person was wearing black night clothes and a black bandanna around his face.

"Assassin! Protect me!!"

Zhou Bao reacted first, threw the bowl away, and immediately protected Ouyang Lun.

but after a while

The man in black still fell to the ground, and no one made any movement.

"Master, he seems to have fainted after falling."

Zhou Bao took a look and guessed.

Ouyang Lun pushed Zhou Bao away and said angrily: "What do you want? Falling from such a high wall would make even an iron man faint!"

After speaking, Ouyang Lun walked towards the man in black on the ground.

Zhou Bao came to Ouyang Lun again and said, "Master, he may be pretending to be faint and is preparing to assassinate you when you get close. It's better to go take a look first."

Hearing Zhou Bao's words, Ouyang Lun stopped and nodded, "Well, you're right. If it's possible, then it's up to you to take off the black scarf of the man in black!"

"." Zhou Bao was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Yes!"

Gulong——

Zhou Bao turned around, swallowed, and bravely walked towards the man in black.

Fortunately, no accidents occurred during the whole process. Zhou Bao pulled off the man in black's face scarf, and the man in black's true face was revealed.

"kindness?!"

"Master, why does this assassin look so much like Ji Gang, the leader of the Jin Yiwei!"

Zhou Bao turned his head and said to Ouyang Lun.

Ouyang Lun came over and took a look, and kicked Zhou Bao angrily, "What do you mean, he is Jigang, the commander of Jinyiwei!"

"Damn it! The leader of the Jinyi Guards is here to assassinate you, Master!!"

"Is His Majesty planning to attack you?"

Zhou Bao became worried.

"Can you use your brain? Didn't you see that Ji Gang didn't even have a weapon on him? What did he use to assassinate him?"

Ouyang Lun frowned.

"Master, you are right!" Zhou Bao suddenly nodded, and then asked: "But in broad daylight, why does Ji Gang not go through the main entrance and insist on climbing the wall?"

Zhu Wenhai said at this time: "Zhou Bao, you just stopped talking. Someone knocked on the door and said it was from Jin Yiwei, and then you scolded him and left?"

Hearing this, Zhou Bao suddenly realized again, "I remembered, someone did knock on the door just now, saying it belonged to someone from Jinyiwei, it seems to be him!"

"Tsk, tsk, isn't the commander of the Jinyiwei very strong in martial arts? Why did he fall off the wall?"

"This Jin Yiwei is too rubbish!"

Zhu Wenhai pointed to the pot where the snail and lion noodles were cooked, and murmured in a low voice: "Is it because of the smell?"

After hearing Zhu Wenhai's words, everyone suddenly felt that it was very reasonable!

Ouyang Lun waved his hand, "Zhou Bao asked someone to help him up, tie his hands and feet with ropes, and wait for him to wake up and interrogate him!"

"Okay sir!"

Zhou Bao immediately ran to get a rope and tied Ji Gang up.

Outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma were chatting while waiting for Ji Gang to come back.

However, after waiting for Queen Ma to leave and not waiting for Ji Gang to come back, Zhu Yuanzhang became a little impatient and said, "What's going on? The sun is going to set. Why hasn't Ji Gang come back yet? Are the Jin Yiwei so slow in doing things now?"

Wang Zhong said quickly: "Your Majesty, please calm down. Master Ji Gang is a cautious person. He will definitely come back to report to Your Majesty only if he wants to know the matter clearly. It is still difficult to get the news from Ouyang Consort."

After hearing Wang Zhong's words, Zhu Yuanzhang became less angry and said, "I'll just wait a little longer!"

"But if I find out that Ji Gang is really slacking off, I will not let him off lightly!"

"Yes Yes."

Wang Zhong nodded repeatedly.

At this moment, Ji Gang, dressed in black, walked in.

Seeing Ji Gang, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned immediately, sniffed, and asked with a puzzled look: "Ji Gang, why are you dressed like this? Didn't I ask you to find out what that boy Ouyang Lun is doing?"

"Also. Where did you go? Why do you smell so bad?"

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's inquiry, Ji Gang's face was full of embarrassment. Thinking of the deliciousness of snail and lion rice noodles, Ji Gang subconsciously raised his lips.

This action was caught by Zhu Yuanzhang, and a terrible thought suddenly flashed in his mind.

Ji Gang wanted to step forward and explain to Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Yuanzhang refused immediately, "Ji Gang, don't come over, just stand there!"

ah--! ?

Hearing Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, but he still stood there honestly and did not take another step forward.

"You step back further!"

Zhu Yuanzhang waved again.

Ji Gang had no choice but to take another step back.

"Your Majesty, is this okay?"

"Okay, just stand there and answer!" Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and looked at Ji Gang with a strange expression.

"Yes."

"Speaking of which, have you found out what Ouyang Lun has been doing during this time?"

"Back to Your Majesty, I have found out everything. During this period, the daily affairs of the clan have been handed over to Zhu Wenhai. As for Ouyang Prince Consort, he only works for a quarter to half an hour every day. Occasionally, he will go to the prince and grandson. We go to class, and the rest of the time is spent fishing and researching food, and nothing else.”

Ji Gang said the answer he had already thought of.

After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, "This Ouyang Lun! He can only do half an hour of work every day. He is so lazy!"

"Still studying food every day! The dignified first-class sect leader and consort actually became a cook. Doesn't he know that a gentleman is far away from the cook?! If it is spread that my son-in-law is a cook, where will my face turn? ?!”

Without Empress Ma by his side, Zhu Yuanzhang would be an irritable system, and his voice would be countless times louder! He was quite angry at the moment.

In the past three months since co-writing, Ouyang Lun has done nothing but been lazy for three months. This made Zhu Yuanzhang extremely uncomfortable and felt that he had suffered a huge loss.

Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry, Ji Gang also hurriedly tried to persuade him: "Your Majesty, according to the Jinyi Guards' inspection, the efficiency of this palace has increased several times in the past three months. The clan affairs that used to be suppressed for a long time are now the most important." It can be processed in three days!”

"Although Prince Consort Ouyang is studying delicious food, his business is not delayed at all. Besides, the food cooked by Prince Consort Ouyang is quite delicious."

Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ji Gang even more angrily, "Did your kid eat Ouyang Lun's food? Are you starting to talk to him now?"

"Your Majesty, the general is just seeking truth from facts and reporting according to the facts!" Ji Gang said quickly.

"What a person who seeks truth from facts, what a person who reports truthfully!" Zhu Yuanzhang sneered again and again, and then said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for the fact that he has made a lot of contributions in the reform of the clan and the vassal king, I would never let him go easily. !”

"Okay, that's it for now! Go down and wash yourself first and change into clean clothes!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ji Gang then turned and left.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ji Gang's back and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Wang Zhong! Do you think Ji Gang has eaten shit? Is it so smelly?"
