At the beginning of the civil castle, the Ming God of War was a little panicked

Chapter 75 Collaborating with the enemy and treason, killing without mercy!

Chapter 75 Collaborating with the enemy and treason, killing without mercy!

Zhang Fu couldn't bear it any longer, stepped forward and grabbed Wang Hailing by the collar, and lifted him up from the ground.

"Wang Hailing, you bastard really sold grain to the Mongols?"

"I...I don't know..."

Wang Hailing wanted to cry without tears, and said tremblingly: "I...I just handed over the grain to Fan Ji Warehouse, and they shipped it out for a [-]% commission. As for who sold it to, I really don't know... "

Snapped!
Zhang Fu slapped him and said angrily, "Do you know now?"

"No...I don't know..."

clap clap clap!
Zhang Fu's fiery temper came up, and Wang Hailing's eyes were shining with gold stars, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding.

"I really... I really don't know..."

Seeing that Zhang Fu was about to fight, Zhu Qizhen said: "Mr. Yingying, wait a moment, let me finish my sentence!"

In the court hall, everyone was silent, not daring to vent their anger.

Zhu Qizhen's eyes were like lightning, he glanced around, and pointed to another person: "The right servant of the household department, Xu Chang!"

"Wei Chen is here!"

Xu Chang's legs softened and he fell to his knees.

"Did you say it yourself, or did I say it for you?"

"My humble minister... my humble minister..."

Xu Chang's expression flustered immediately, and he felt a chill on his back, already drenched in cold sweat.

Zhu Qizhen said coldly: "Wynn, read the account book to everyone!"

Huai En had already prepared it, and immediately took out the account book, cleared his throat, and read: "In June of the 14th year of Zhengtong, Xu Asheng entrusted Fan Ji Warehouse to deliver [-] stones of grain and [-] pieces of cotton cloth; in October, Xu Asheng raised another [-] grains The stone still exists in Fanji’s warehouse until it is stolen.”

Zhu Qizhen asked with a smile: "Xu Qing's family, who is this Xu Asheng?"

"It's Weichen's...nephew!"

"In just a few months, he paid [-] shi twice in grain. His family must be very rich? That's weird. I asked Jin Yiwei to investigate. This Xu Asheng's family only has a mere hundred acres of land. Where did he get so much grain?"

Xu Chang wiped the sweat off his forehead, but dared not speak.

The smile on Zhu Qizhen's face gradually disappeared, and he said coldly: "If I remember correctly, in October, the Wala army just ran out of food, so I will buy your food first. The price should be very high, right?"

As soon as this remark came out, the officials immediately exploded.

The ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty prohibits officials from doing business. However, if it is just for business, everyone will turn a blind eye and close one's eyes. However, selling grain to the Wala people during the war is treason!

Xu Chang's face was pale, and he said tremblingly, "I am wronged... I am wronged!"

The eyes of Zhang Fu and the others were about to burst into flames, wishing they could tear this person to pieces on the spot.

"Do you still have the face to cry out for innocence?"

Zhu Qizhen finally got angry, stood up suddenly, walked in front of Xu Chang, pointed to his nose and cursed: "I and the soldiers are fighting bloody battles in the front line, and you are secretly delivering food to the Wala people behind your back? Why don't you do it every day?" Claiming to be Qingliu, claiming to be a disciple of a sage, if a sage knows that someone is using his name to do such a thing, will he be angry? Where is Yu Shiyue, Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment?"

Yu Shiyue looked confused, and hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the old minister didn't..."

"I didn't mention you!" Zhu Qizhen interrupted him and asked, "I'm here to ask you, what crime should one have for having an affair with a foreign enemy?"

Yu Shiyue thought for a while and said, "If the circumstances are serious, they will be punished as treason!"

"it is good!"

Zhu Qizhen took the account book from Huai En, threw it into Yu Shiyue's arms, and said: "Seventeen officials, big and small, were involved in it. I will hand this case over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice, with the assistance of Dali Temple and the Metropolitan Procuratorate. , The East Factory supervised the whole process, and all those involved in the case, no matter who they found, whether they were officials or nobles, will be severely punished!"

Yu Shiyue took the account book, knelt down and saluted: "The old minister obeys the order!"

After hearing a few plops, several officials collapsed to the ground.

Zhu Qizhen looked at everyone coldly and said, "King Yan!"

"Chen is here!"

"Where did the discussion go?"

Zhu Qiyu said: "The ministers and others are discussing about the British public award."

"Continue to discuss!"

After finishing speaking, Zhu Qizhen waved his hands and turned to leave Fengtian Hall.

Immediately afterwards, Yuan Bin came to the hall with more than a dozen big Han generals, and ordered: "Take people!"

"I do not have……"

"Injustice!"

"Forgive me..."

After a wild meal, more than a dozen people were taken off their official hats and uniforms, and escorted out of the hall.

Yuan Bin bowed to Yu Shiyue and asked, "Yu Shangshu, when will it start?"

Yu Shiyue was stunned for a moment, and said, "Be prepared anyway!"

Yuan Bin nodded and said, "Okay, when Yu Shangshu is ready, come to Zhao Prison to pick him up at any time!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Yu Shiyue to reply, she turned and left.

Jin Yiwei came and went like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, the hall returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.

Zhu Qiyu coughed lightly, and said, "Everyone, do you have any disagreement about the British public award?"

Surprisingly, no one jumped out to object.

The one who opposed the loudest just now was beaten up by Zhang Fu himself, and then taken away by Jin Yiwei. Seeing that he would not survive.

Not only that, but other opponents... seem to be in danger of themselves.

Everyone suddenly realized that it seemed that all the opponents had been taken over by the emperor.

Is this a coincidence?

Seeing that no one objected, Chen Ying stood up and said: "Let me express my opinion. The British male and horse have made great achievements in war all their lives. This time they repelled the Oirats. This time it is even more important. If you have meritorious service, you will be rewarded. If you have done something wrong, you will be punished. There is no precedent for a different surname to be a king, but if we start today, everyone will be more motivated to fight the enemy in the future, and it may not be a bad thing, what do you think?"

After Chen Ying finished speaking, Li Zhen and other nobles all agreed.

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and suddenly found that there were few people there, so he asked, "Why didn't Uncle Ping come?"

Chen Huai is a great hero, a small expert in digging pits and firing kilns, how could such an important meeting be without him.

Chen Ying said: "Ping Xiangbo is developing cement in Xishan, saying that he is too busy and has no time."

"Cement?" Zhu Qiyu asked, "Is it water or mud?"

"I don't know!" Chen Ying scratched his head and said, "Anyway, he said that this thing is very important, and it will be used when building the Martyr's Shrine. The construction period is tight, so there is no delay!"

"That's good!" Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Today, everyone expresses their opinion here and agrees with the British Crown Prince..."

"I disagree!"

Everyone thought who it was, who was so stubborn, and according to his reputation, it turned out to be Yu Qian.

Unavoidably, some people began to whisper, isn't Yu Qian one of the emperor's people, why did he jump out and sing the opposite?
Chen Ying became unhappy, turned to Yu Shiyue, and asked: "Yu Shangshu, please take a look at the account book, is there any name of Yu Shilang?"

Yu Shiyue was stunned for a moment, and said, "No!"

Yu Qian snorted softly, and said: "The Marquis of Taining wants to investigate someone, so go ahead and investigate. However, today's discussion is about meritorious service awards. The meritorious service of the British Duke is obvious to all, but it is against the rules to be crowned king."

Chen Ying frowned and asked, "Where is it against the rules?"

While everyone was watching, Yu Qian said calmly: "The titles of county kings have always been named after counties, such as Xu Da, King of Zhongshan County, Chang Yuchun, King of Kaiping County, and Li Wenzhong, King of Qiyang County. The same is true for the king of Shanjun, the king of Ningxiang, and the king of Shanggao. If you want to confer a title on the British Duke, you should follow this form. Jiaozhi is the chief envoy. , The lower official suggested that the Ministry of Rites re-approve the title."

Everyone nodded after listening. These words are well-founded and convincing, but...

Yu Qian, aren't you a civil servant, how do you speak to the military officer?

Even Yu Qian, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, has rebelled. It seems that the life of Wenchen Qingliu will be difficult in the future...

Zhu Qiyu nodded, and said: "Young Minister Yu is right, then the Ministry of Rites will re-approve, choose a suitable name, and then the cabinet will review it and report it to the imperial court for approval."

 Thank you Gu Xi wife for the reward, I love you~
