Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

Chapter 478 Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui blocks the road

Zhu Di's eyes flashed, and he said with some expectation: "Guo Qing's intention is to let the Jin Yiwei sit back and wait for the rabbit again?"

Guo Andao: "Your Majesty, what if Zhang Chan confessed? ... He sent people to rape the noble Ming Dynasty, and even sent people to assassinate him... Such evil deeds failed to succeed, and he actually sent people to kill people and silence them. He is so arrogant and domineering, and regards human life. How could a minister who was so careless and wantonly kill people only have one murder case like this?
Or maybe he, Zhang Yan, just suspected the minister, so he impeached the minister, and even sent someone to assassinate the minister. Is he suspected of deceiving the emperor?

For such a serious crime, Zhang Yan's family should not be sent to prison?

Can't Jin Yiwei interrogate him properly?
Even in Jin Yiwei's prison, what does Jin Yiwei want to interrogate? Is it a random interrogation?
Or maybe Jin Yiwei only released a false news, how could the gangs in the capital not panic?
......"

Zhu Di subconsciously looked at Guo An strangely.

Guo An smiled slightly and didn't say any more.

What he said were just routine operations in government offices like Jinyiwei.

Even if he didn't say anything, according to the practices of those in Jin Yiwei, these things would be inevitable.

In an instant, Zhu Di also thought of this.

However, he didn't say much.

When he was the king of Yan, he heard that Jin Yiwei often committed some serious cases, and asked Emperor Taizu Gao to go up and down the court to kill people with heads rolling down and blood flowing like rivers. He was even a little frightened by the killings.

There were countless unjust cases among them, which made him not have much favorable impression of Jin Yiwei.

Therefore, Zhu Di was happy for a long time after hearing that Emperor Taizu Gao felt that Jin Yiwei was abusing his power and taking advantage of the situation, and abolished internal and external prisons from Jin Yiwei's responsibilities, reducing Jin Yiwei's power.

However, after he ascended the throne, he discovered that there were so many traitors hidden inside and outside the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Di had an inexplicable idea in his mind to expand the power of Jin Yiwei.

Down below, Guo An lowered his head and looked at the floor quietly under his feet. Unknown to him, his few words of hatred actually aroused Zhu Di's idea of ​​expanding the power of the Jin Yiwei.

"Guo Qing, among these scholars who are interceding for the thief Zhang Yan, there should be some thieves sneaking in?"

"There should be!"

Guo An nodded slightly.

Zhu Dihu stared and said angrily: "These thieves are really pervasive!"

Guo An smiled softly and said, "Your Majesty, this is a good thing!"

"Ok?"

Zhu Di looked at Guo An with some doubts.

"Your Majesty, on weekdays, if there are traitors with evil intentions lurking and the court is unaware of their existence, this is the greatest threat to the Ming Dynasty.

However, as long as they make trouble, they will be exposed. Only in this way can the loyal and traitors be distinguished and they can be cleaned up! "

"As it should be!"

Zhu Di nodded slightly, a cold light gradually revealed in his eyes.

"Since these scholars can't rest in peace with their studies and obtain fame, then they shouldn't rest in peace!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Guo An flattered.

At this time, a chamberlain came in from outside the palace and reported to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Zhao Hu, wants to see you!"

Zhu Di's face lit up, "Let him in!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The waiter responded and quickly exited.

After a while.

Zhao Hu strode in with joy in his eyes.

"Your Majesty, I have inspected Tianxi Temple and found 20 taels of treasure notes and silver!"

"20 million taels?"

Zhu Di was surprised, "Are these bald donkeys so rich?"

On the side, Guo An also stared wide-eyed. With so much money, he actually asked him for alms. How greedy!
"Exactly!"

Zhao Hu reported again: "Your Majesty, the minister also searched Zhang Yan's house and found five large boxes of gold, silver, jewelry and banknotes, totaling 5 taels of silver!
In addition, Wei Chen also found out from the butler's mouth that Zhang Yan had two thousand acres of land in his hometown in Yunnan and Shaanxi! "

"This thief official!" Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, then became furious.

"Where are Zhang Yan's family?"

Zhao Hu replied: "Reporting to your majesty, there are only three wives, concubines, and a few servants in Zhang Gu's house.

His eldest son is an official abroad, and his daughter has already been married. His youngest son was secretly sent out of the capital by Zhang Yan a few days ago. The ministers sent Jin Yiwei to follow him all the way. Now that Zhang Yan has committed a crime, he can capture the youngest son at any time! "

Zhu Di nodded slightly, "Catch them all quickly!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Hu nodded in response.

Zhu Di said: "In addition, we need to interrogate Zhang Yan strictly. We need to know who are his accomplices in the capital, or who are the thieves in Yunnan and other places who are colluding with him?
Are the thieves who made counterfeit banknotes also related to him? "

Zhao Hu responded again: "I obey the order!"

Zhu Di warned again, "But don't give in to a trick and frame Zhongliang!"

Zhao Hu's face became solemn, he raised his hands in salute, and said with a serious face, "Your Majesty, please rest assured that although I am worried, I will never do anything like that to deceive the emperor!"

Zhu Di chuckled lightly, he still had some trust in Zhao Hu.

……

Not long after Guo An, Zhao Hu and others left.

Zhu Gaochi walked into the hall.

"Dad, regarding the candidates for the Ministry of Civil Service, I have found three people!"

"Which three?"

Zhu Di asked curiously.

Zhu Gaochi held up his hand and said, "Return to the Emperor Father. One of them is Jian Yi, Zuo Shilang of the Ministry of Civil Affairs. He is a simple man and treats others with sincerity. He was deeply loved by Emperor Taigaozu!

Secondly, Baozhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, once served as the Chief Envoy of the Chief Secretary of Peking, and later the Censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Right Minister of the Ministry of Punishment. He was famous for his integrity and thrift!
The third one is Shi Rujun, the right deputy capital censor, who has real talent and learning..."

"These three people are all talented and virtuous, and their reputations are sufficient. They can be promoted to Minister of the Ministry of Personnel!"

Zhu Di nodded slowly. He was familiar with these three people, and they were indeed the best candidates for the Ministry of Personnel.

"Among these three people, who do you want to be the Minister of Staff?"

Zhu Gaochi was stunned for a moment, then said slowly: "My child thinks that Jian Yi, the left minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, is the most suitable, but this person has been promoted too quickly since his father came to the throne.

Therefore, Hai'er felt that Bao Zhao, the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment, could be transferred to the position of Minister of the Ministry of Personnel! "

"allow!"

Zhu Di nodded.

"Thank you dad!"

Zhu Gaochi quickly thanked him.

……

on the other side.

Not long after Guo An walked out of the palace, a person appeared in front of him with several guards, blocking Guo An's way.

Seeing this, a hint of helplessness flashed in Guo An's eyes, but he still hurriedly bowed his hands in greeting, "I am here to see His Highness King Zhao!"

As early as a few months ago, Zhu Gaosui had been named King Zhao, and the vassal territory was Zhangde Mansion.

However, both Zhu Di and the queen doted on Zhu Gaosui, so they never let Zhu Gaosui surrender.

"I've met Marquis Dinghai!"

Zhu Gaosui also returned the salute slowly, then came closer and said angrily: "Marquis Dinghai, we have also heard that the thief officer Zhang Gu insulted you like this!
Moreover, there was actually someone in the court interceding for the traitor Zhang Guan. He was really not a son of a man and did not take Dinghaihou into his eyes!
If Marquis Dinghai is still depressed, we can help Marquis Dinghai humiliate all those thieves and make Marquis Dinghai feel so bad! "
