Ming Dynasty, starting from the empty seal case

Chapter 4 sparse!
  Since there is this entry.

Emperor Hongwu read so many memorials in order to attract his attention immediately.

All you have to do is be the first to win!
  Just two lines.

He deliberately wrote in the center of a piece of white paper first, from top to bottom.

After finishing writing.

He took out another piece of white paper.

Officially from right to left, top to bottom.

Now that the topic has been determined.

Su Xian didn't care about attitude or attitude, so he started writing again.

Now that the decision has been made.

Su Xian will do the opposite!
  but.

Su Xian had never seen the memorial and didn't know how to write it, but under the influence of "childish talk", his thoughts were wandering.

The first sentence before was a bolt from the blue in the tone of "childish talk".

But next, it must not be like this.

It is right to state what is to be done.

But this time, Su Xian really used what he had learned in the past two years and what he had accumulated in his previous life.

[Your Majesty Wan'an, my son Su Xian is the son of Su Guiyuan, who is under the jurisdiction of the Household Office and is responsible for inspecting the school! 】

[Please forgive me for using such arrogant words to admonish Your Majesty. I really have to do something. 】

[It is all due to my father's responsibility that the empty seal case occurred and I was unfortunately involved in it. 】

[A child once heard: The superiors punish the inferiors, and they can be punished for their words. However, if the subordinates argue, it will be as difficult as climbing to heaven! 】

[According to the Holy Spirit’s opinion: My father’s sins should be as great as the sky and as numerous as the sea! 】

[The so-called officials protect each other, practice favoritism and malpractice, take bribes and pervert the law, deceive superiors and conceal inferiors, enrich one's own pockets, according to the clear law of corruption and beheaded for sixty taels, my father... will die! 】

[However, as a son of man, if you sit back and ignore the case, waiting for the case to happen, and let my father be executed for such irresistible crimes as corruption, favoritism, deceiving the Holy Father, etc., then you will be a son of man in vain! 】

[I would like to use this statement to state the truth to Your Majesty, and I implore Your Majesty to clear the name of the father of my son. 】

Finish writing this paragraph.

Su Xian thought that since he was only six years old, if someone saw the above words, he would inevitably become suspicious.

Should I speak like a six-year-old?

but.

As soon as this idea emerged in his mind, Su Xian dismissed it directly.

When a gentleman hides his clumsiness, he will have time to do so.

At this point, it’s time to go all out.

Even if you get the auspicious name of "child prodigy" because of this, it can also increase your chances of winning.

As for the others.

Survive first!

Maybe, once he submits it, he can leave a good story in the history books of future generations, that is, a six-year-old god who went to the saints to give words of advice.

I was thinking about this, but this strange thought soon disappeared.

after all.

Pass, pass, pass.

If there is a level in the middle that you can’t pass, all your writing will be in vain!

Su Xian calmed down.

Then another paragraph continued to appear.

[My father is thirty-three this year. When Your Majesty opened the imperial examination at the beginning of the founding of the country, he only took the examination for scholar status. I wanted to continue the imperial examination, but unexpectedly His Majesty had banned the imperial examination. 】

[In the fifth year of Hongwu, due to his reputation as a scholar, he was fortunate enough to be admitted to the Zhaomo Institute as an inspector. 】

[For five years, my father has done his job conscientiously. Whenever the two taxes are busy, he will work day and night. In the eighth year of Hongwu's reign, my father didn't come back for a month in a row. When we saw him again, he was already emaciated and completely different from the same person! 】

[In July last year, during the scorching summer, my father was sitting alone in his study. Because the tax and grain details were wrong, my father did not dare to delay for fear of disturbing state affairs. The writing didn't stop, the sweating continued, and I couldn't sleep for three days! The final check was wrong. However, he was in a coma for two days and nights. When he woke up, his father said: I saved ten thousand shi of tax and food for the Ming Dynasty! 】

[On these two matters, my father has fulfilled his duties and is worthy of his duties as a school inspector. 】

write here.

Su Xian only felt that he was holding a breath in his chest.

This is indeed the case for his own father, Su Guiyuan.

Normally, he seems to be a good old man, but in these two things he said.

In fact, it was not my father's fault at all at that time, but there were always people among his colleagues who took the opportunity to add more burdens to my father.

Others can go back, but he can't.

This father of mine accepts everything and never refuses!

If he hadn't returned home that month, if it hadn't been for the letter from someone entrusted to him, my mother would have thought something had happened to my father.

And under this tone.

Su Xian started writing again.

[My father is loyal, honest, diligent and thrifty at home, and he is also taciturn outside. The family of three barely survives on their annual salary. 】

[Nowadays, apart from official uniforms, my father only has two sets of regular clothes throughout the year, one for summer and one for winter. 】

[Recalling the past, every year at the end of the year, the fathers of others would be seen wearing brocade clothes and embroidered robes, shining brightly. But my father, there is only patch. 】

[The child watches the crowds in the market. His father, who is the same age as him, hangs out in gambling houses, indulges in gambling, or goes out to play. He pays no attention to what is going on at home. But my father, who is conscientious in his duties and diligent in taking care of his family, never imitates others! ] [In private matters, it can be said that I have fulfilled my father's responsibilities! 】

Su Xian stopped writing.

I thought of something again, but with some resentment in my heart, I wrote again:
  [Your Majesty founded the Ming Dynasty. In just ten years, the world's talented people are like dragons crossing the river, soaring into the sky and soaring into the sky again! 】

[Only my father, five years ago, served as the school inspector. Five years later, his colleagues may have been promoted to the sixth rank director, one rank per year, and four ranks in a row! There may be people who have been sent to serve as officials and have made outstanding achievements. Now they are the chief officials of a county and a state! 】

[And my father is still the ninth grade inspector! 】

[I would like to ask Your Majesty, if my father is really corrupt, perverting the law, colluding with officials, and corrupting taxes and grain. 】

[Now, why is it still a year's salary and more than sixty stone for inspection? 】

[My colleague Shangguan deceived my father into being dull and pedantic. 】

[The new guy in the past is now my father’s immediate superior! 】

[Don’t you hear that there are such dull, pedantic and corrupt officials in the world? 】

write here.

The private matters have been written.

This is Su Xian's first purpose.

And next.

This was the fundamental reason why he made this determination.

This is also the difference from what Li Xie warned his father.

[In this case of empty seals, because the officials were covering up and concealing it from each other, Your Majesty was afraid that there was corruption in the tax revenue and the money of the people, so he was furious and wanted to go on a killing spree! 】

[The child is young and does not yet know the complex entanglements, so he dare not get too involved in the case. Only my father is caught in it, but he vows to find out! 】

[The case of blank seals is the details of the accounts between each province and the Ministry of Revenue. The chief officials of each place stamped the blank documents, which opened the door to convenience. Later, in Beijing, they filled in the numbers privately according to what the Ministry of Revenue saw. 】

[If there is any private sale of public rights, corruption and fraud, or misappropriation of taxes and grain, it will be difficult to guard against it. 】

[Therefore, Xiaoer Zeng famously said at the beginning: The emperor killed well! 】

[These are all words from the heart! 】

The pen and ink pause for a moment.

Su Xian's eyebrows became more solemn, and what needed to be said had been said.

And next, instead of saying that he wants to follow along, it is better to say that he wants to express his guess!

Anyway, "Children speak without restraint".

For insurance.

Su Xian even added insurance before making any guesses.

[However, I know that since the founding of the country, Your Majesty has been in charge of the public and private affairs of all ministers, and he has treated them like countless treasures. 】

[This matter of the empty seal is just like the rumors in the officialdom among the people. Officials everywhere know it, and the chief officials know it. Everyone in the capital, from the prime minister of the auxiliary country to the ninth grade inspector, knows about it. 】

[Because the Ming Dynasty has a vast land and abundant resources, and the journey back and forth is thousands of miles away, everyone in the world says that the matter of Kongyin is a helpless move. 】

[However, this is a helpless act that everyone knows, how could your Majesty not know about it? 】

[Therefore, this empty seal case was definitely not discovered accidentally by His Majesty. 】

[It seems unintentional, but it actually has a profound meaning. 】

[Your Majesty, please see that the child is young and has no restraints in his words. He only makes a few guesses. 】

The pen and ink fell.

The final ending has come out smoothly.

[At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the heroes were separatist. His majesty turned into a dragon out of the grass and used overwhelming power to sweep away the foreign Yuan Dynasty, suppress the heroes, and finally open up the Ming Dynasty! 】

[However, it has been more than 200 years since the Song Dynasty was divided into northern and southern parts of this land of Yan and Huang, and it has been under the rule of different Yuan Dynasties for nearly a hundred years! 】

[In a hundred years, the Han Dynasty fell, etiquette was destroyed, wealthy families from all over the country arose, and bandits were rampant, causing harm to the world! 】

[Due to the tax-packaging system of the Great Yuan Dynasty, local officials only need to be responsible for the amount of taxes and grain allocated by the Great Yuan Dynasty. They can unscrupulously impose all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes in the areas under their jurisdiction for various reasons, dividing the wealth of the people! 】

[Hundreds of years of unhealthy tendencies have already contributed to... the officials and gentry working together to exploit the people! 】

[It is the Ming Dynasty. Although Your Majesty has the heroic feat of re-opening the world, there are heroes of literature and martial arts who can govern the world and drive out the Tartars! 】

[But I can’t go deep into every place and get into the details! 】

[After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, most of the officials in power in various places came from the noble gentry clan, or they were originally officials in the late Yuan Dynasty! 】

[If the old law is not gone, how can the new law survive? 】

[Therefore, although the Ming Dynasty was newly established, its stubborn problems still exist! 】

[Children's guess...]

[Your Majesty’s intention should be: build the plank road openly and use the warehouse secretly! 】

at this time.

The young Su Xian sat upright.

The crooked last few lines have already landed on the page.

[Breaking a bloody case...]

[Establish authority among officials and legislate in the hearts of the people! 】

[By then, even if the sky is high and the emperor is far away! 】

[People also know that things are not what they used to be, and the old Yuan Dynasty is gone! 】

【Today, the sun and the moon are shining brightly! 】
