Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 418 Zhu Di was wronged

out of the palace.

Erhu led a group of royal guards to Dai Jiu's residence.

As a household clerk in Jiangning County, Dai Jiu is considered a moderate figure in Jiangning County.

However, his residence is a small courtyard with only three or four rooms, without any servants.

He behaved very cleanly.

As Erhu and other royal guards broke in, Dai Jiu's wife suddenly looked horrified.

"Who are you..."

"Jin Yiwei ransacked the house!"

A captain snorted coldly, and the woman's face turned pale and she was trembling all over.

At this time, a group of royal guards had already poured in, causing a stir in the entire house.

After a while.

A group of royal guards came out carrying a boy and a girl.

When the two children ran to the woman, the woman looked at the two tigers carefully and asked tremblingly: "I dare to ask you military masters, but is there any misunderstanding?"

Erhu said coldly: "Dai Jiu has been convicted of deceiving you. There will be no misunderstanding!"

"How is this possible? My husband has always been honest and honest. He stays in the county office all day and cannot come out. How can he deceive you?
This military master must have made a mistake. The civilian woman still has some jewelry here, dedicated to the military masters, and I also invite you military..."

Before the woman could finish her words, a military captain in brocade clothes walked out with a gloomy look on his face.

"Back to the commander, I have searched everything. I only found 30 taels of treasure banknotes and some jewelry. There is nothing else!"

"very good!"

Erhu sighed helplessly and said to the woman: "We didn't want to embarrass you and wait for these weak women.

It's just that your husband is too loyal. He would rather sacrifice you to protect the person behind him?

I hope you can persuade him properly after you go in, otherwise we can’t guarantee what will happen! "

The woman's expression changed drastically, and the two children beside her were so frightened that they cried.

"take away!"

Erhu waved his hand and said directly.

"Yes!"

A group of royal guards escorted a group of people directly and walked out.

……

Erhu and others had just left.

Outside this house, two vendors passed by inadvertently.

Wait until Erhu has just returned with his family.

Outside the city, the old man in the manor also received the report.

"They directly ransacked Dai Jiu's home and took away Dai Jiu's wife and children?"

The old man frowned slightly, "Are you sure that Jin Yiwei took him away?"

"Sir, please look carefully. Those people are wearing Jin Yiwei's flying fish uniforms!"

"We know!"

The old man nodded with satisfaction, "Butler, give these two people five taels of treasure money each!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Thank you sir!"

The two vendors suddenly looked overjoyed. Judging from their tone, they were also servants of the Zhang family.

When the housekeeper went down with the two vendors, the old man shouted again: "Come here, go find the young master!"

"Yes, sir!"

……

Dinghaihou Mansion.

Guo Ang reported to Guo An in detail: "Sir, I have led several stewards in the house to find out the details of the people near Jiangjun Mountain.

There are thirty small villages with a total of 61 households and 550 people.

As for the acres of land, there are only [-] acres in total.

Moreover, the reputation of these people in the capital is not very good. Not only are they very poor, they are also irritable and rough-tempered and like to fight.

There are mostly common people around, and they don't like to have contact with them. There are also many common people who like to call them barbarians. Of course, the government officials call these people unruly people...'"

"Hello, troublemaker!"

Guo An laughed.

Guo Ang suddenly looked surprised.

"Master, those people are not willing to obey discipline!"

Guo Jingjing looked at Guo Ang quietly and asked, "You have been there a lot these days, but have you noticed that any of those farmers are disobedient and causing trouble?"

"This……"

Guo Ang was startled, thought for a moment, and then said with surprise on his face: "Sir, when you say this, those farmers seem to be very reasonable!
Especially the village chiefs of those villages have a feeling of being cunning..."

"That's right!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "Maybe we have found a treasure!"

"Found a treasure?"

Guo Ang was stunned again.

Guo An said again: "Don't listen to those people's evaluation of the farmers near Jiangjun Mountain, observe it yourself!"

"Yes, sir!" Guo Ang said quickly.

Guo An asked again: "Are there any farmers who are short of food?"

Guo Ang quickly replied: "Sir, all of those farmers' homes are short of food. According to what I saw, the food stored in these farmers' homes can only last for three months at most!"

"Three months!"

Guo An nodded slightly, "That's enough!"

"master?"

Guo Ang was full of doubts again.

"We are going to let the Chamber of Commerce buy hundreds of ships and run shipping operations, just like Beiping Prefecture's car transportation!
When you go to Jiangjun Mountain again, ask us how many farmers can drive boats, and how many of them are willing to do shipping.

You also know how much money those coachmen in Beiping Prefecture can earn..."

"Yes, sir!"

"Also, show us where to build a workshop, a large-scale workshop!
Your Majesty is planning to build some workshops in the capital, possibly near Jiangjun Mountain! "

"Yes, sir!"

"in addition……"

……

Inside Fengtian Temple.

Zhu Di leaned back on the dragon chair, flipping through the memorials one after another.However, Zhu Di's face looked a little irritable.

Not long after he ascended the throne, Zhu Di was already yearning for life in Prince Yan's Mansion in Peking.

Every day, I only need to deal with a few government affairs.

In fact, there was no need to worry about it for several days, Zhu Qing had already arranged it on his own.

When he is bored, he can take his second and third sons with him to the Yanshanwei camp to ride horses and practice martial arts.

Or, go to the north to conquer the Mongolian Tatars, or go to the Yan Kingdom...

But now, it is necessary to review so many memorials all day long.

I don’t know where the Ming Dynasty got such incompetent and rogue officials. Every one of them had to give him a memorial for any big deal. The salary they were given every year was like feeding a pig!
"Ok?"

Looking at it, Zhu Di narrowed his eyes and sat up subconsciously.

Immediately, the more he looked at her, the more annoyed he became.

"Hmph! What a thief officer..."

With a crash, the memorial in his hand was thrown directly to the ground.

On the side, Zhu Gaochi, who was concentrating on reviewing the memorial, was startled and stood up quickly.

"Dad, what happened?"

As he said that, he picked up the memorial and started reading it.

Zhu Di said angrily: "That thief official Zang Shiwen actually dared to speak for Liu Wen and Dai Jiu!
Liu Wen, a traitorous official, as a county magistrate, actually blatantly disobeyed our orders and even insulted us!

Dai Jiu also deceived the superiors and concealed the truth from the inferiors. His crime was so obvious.

Then Zang Shiwen actually dared to cry out for Liu Wen and Dai Jiu, and wanted to hand these two thieves over to the Ministry of Punishment or the Metropolitan Procuratorate for review?

Is it possible that we will still frame these two little thieves?

......"

Zhu Gaochi also frowned slightly, "Dad, this Zang Shiwen is indeed a little too much!"

"Huh, come here, give us an edict. We want to question Zang Shiwen!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

On the side, Yi Shiha responded quickly.

"Come here, go and summon Zhao Hu, the commander of the Jinyi Guards!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Another eunuch took the order and left.

soon.

After half an hour.

Erhu walked in hastily.

"Wei Chen sees His Majesty!"

Zhu Di asked directly: "Did Dai Jiu do it?"

Erhu's face changed slightly, and he said helplessly: "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Wei Chen personally led people to check Dai Jiu's home, but nothing was found. This man seems to be very honest.

In addition, the captains of the Jinyi Guards had taken action themselves, and even the boy from the Dai Jiu family died in front of him.

Dai Jiu still gritted his teeth and refused to reveal a word! "

"What a tough guy!"

Hearing this, a flash of surprise flashed in Zhu Di's eyes, and then he said angrily: "What a pity, he is a thief!"

On the side, Zhu Gaochi's eyes flashed with a hint of unbearability, "Dad, does Dai Jiu really not know the situation of the people in Jiangjun Mountain?"

Zhu Di said: "As a household clerk in Jiangning County, he is in charge of all land, household registration, and taxes in Jiangning County. How can he not know the situation of the more than 1000 households in Jiangjun Mountain?"

Zhu Gaochi was silent.

Zhu Di added: "Jinyiwei will send some more people to investigate for us.

We don’t believe it. Dai Jiu, as a household clerk in Jiangning County, usually doesn’t show the slightest trace! "

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Also, Zang Shiwen, the imperial censor of Zuo Qiandu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, also gave us a secret investigation!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Erhu took the order again.

……

The next day.

Zhu Di looked at the memorial in his hand, his expression livid again.

"What a thief official. We know that this thief is jealous of Guo Qing for being granted the title of Marquis, and given the land and land. He wants to use this to gain a clear name!"

"Humph, a bunch of thieves, they only know their names all day long, but they don't do anything about personnel matters...

We will never let them off so easily this time! "

On the side, Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Di cautiously and said, "Dad, there are several censors here, as well as the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Household Affairs. It seems that they have also signed a petition for mercy!"

"The Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Household Affairs?"

Zhu Di stared.

"Exactly!"

Zhu Gaochi said.

"What did they say?"

"...Dad, they praised the county magistrates Liu Wen and Dai Jiu.

In addition, they also said that my father... conducted private visits incognito, so that Liu Wen and Dai Jiu did not know his true identity, and he was suspected of deception...

Also, it is not wise to use the royal guards and ransack homes..."

"Fart, what a bunch of thieves!"

Zhu Di was furious.

Immediately, he asked again: "There is no news from Jinyiwei yet?"

On the side, Yi Shiha hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, there is still no news from the Jinyi Guards!"

"A bunch of trash!"

Zhu Di was furious.

"father……"

Zhu Gaochi just wanted to say a few words of relief, but when he looked up, he found that Zhu Di had walked out of the hall angrily.

Can not help but stunned.

Just as I stood up, I remembered something and glanced at the memorial in front of me. I could only sigh helplessly and slowly sit down.

As a prince, he worries more every day than his father!

I don’t know who is the emperor!
Ugh!
