Chapter 172

"We think it's enough." Lao Zhu said, "Where is the salary low?
It's not low at all, so they can only take care of their own food and clothing. If they add subordinates, after all the calculations, they will still be added to the common people. "

"We don't want you to think." Old Zhu crumpled up the paper, "If they dare to steal a tael of silver or steal a bag of grain, we will cut them down ourselves."

Empress Ma sighed: "Chong Ba, the information collected by Jin Yiwei is enough for them to die a hundred times, but this greed is inexhaustible, so we can't kill them every time, right?"

"We're going to kill all these corrupt officials. When harvesting agricultural mulberry and silk every season, as well as autumn grain and summer silk, which of those bastards don't steal money secretly?

Even the samples of mulberry silk were taken home by themselves, and they were greedy for money for building bridges and roads, and eating and drinking prevailed. "

Lao Zhu said to the eunuch next to him, "Let Mao Xiang come and see us."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Of course he was not on a whim, but was about to explode.

Every time Mao Xiang sent the criminal evidence of those officials, Lao Zhu silently made a note in his heart.

Then, a figure quickly walked into the hall: "Mao Xiang has seen His Majesty."

"Mao Xiang, bring it." Old Zhu stretched out his hand.

Mao Xiang nodded, took out a thick notebook from his pocket, and handed it to Lao Zhu respectfully: "It's all here."

This thick stack is all information collected by Jin Yiwei day and night, like a blacklist for death.

Empress Ma glanced at it, turned around and said nothing more, his temper has come up, and no one can stop him.

"Look, girl, look at what this group of dogs are doing. The previous Li Bin hasn't taught them a lesson. They are all playing tricks here. They really treat us as nothing."

Lao Zhu handed the notebook to Empress Ma: "We will never give them a salary increase, and we will punish them for their crimes."

Empress Ma opened the book, and found that it was full of money and other things.

"In the second year of Hongwu, the magistrate of Hangzhou, he sent two beauties to the magistrate of Hangzhou, bought a restaurant by the river, and donated several acres of fertile land, making him a local leader."

"The master of Yangzhou secretly sold hundreds of catties of grain and went to see Li Shanchang many times..."

Empress Ma stopped talking after reading a few pieces, and then couldn't help asking: "Why, are you going to kill?"

"Kill." Old Zhu said to Mao Xiang: "You rush to Hangzhou tonight and take that dog to Beijing."

"Yes, Your Majesty." Mao Xiang then left.

When there was no one in the hall, Empress Ma tore off the notebook with Li Shanchang written on it, and burned it on a candle.

"What are you doing? We let you burn it?" Lao Zhu stared at Empress Ma with his eyes wide open.

"For the matter of Li Qi and Hu Peng, let them go this time. For the matter of Li Shanchang, you should beat him first, so you don't need to get angry."

"This account has to be settled. This Li Shanchang is really getting more and more arrogant." Lao Zhu patted the table and said, "Let him go this time."

Lao Zhu knew what Empress Ma meant, she didn't want him to kill these ministers randomly, so she burned the paper ball just now.

"Okay, hurry up." Empress Ma pushed him to go outside: "Go."

"Why did you drive us away again? If you're not a girl, what's wrong with you?" Before Lao Zhu finished speaking, he was directly pushed out of the hall by Empress Ma.

Empress Ma closed the door with a bang and said, "Hurry up and leave, what does it look like to stay here all the time?"

"Open the door?"

Hearing Lao Zhu knocking on the door outside, Empress Ma wiped away her tears, walked over quickly and blew out the candles in the house: "I'm going to sleep."

Empress Ma hid in the bed, and the pillow was soaked from crying.

On the stone steps outside the dormitory, Lao Zhu looked at the sky with his hands behind his back, and said, "Biao'er, look at your mother, she drove us out again. If you are in Nanjing, let's have a good chat."

A man walked out of the courtyard of Queen Ma's bedroom, talking to himself.

……

"The food is cold again." Xu Miaowei cast a glance at him, put away the plates and chopsticks and walked outside the big tent.

Just bumped into Zhu Di who came in.

"Fourth Highness."

"Miss Xu."

Zhu Di casually picked up a piece of meat from the plate and said, "Brother, why don't you try it, it tastes pretty good."

Zhu Biao looked at the fragments in his hands for a long time before putting them down and saying, "This improvement will definitely make the grassland more hospitable to the Ming army."

"Brother, are you so sure?" Zhu Di stood up from the side and walked over to look at Zhu Biao's expression: "I know this thing, but it can't become hospitable."

"You will know when the time comes, just look at the power of our artillery." Zhu Biao patted him on the shoulder and said, "Aren't you going to sleep?"

"Brother, let me think about it and sleep with you tonight."

Zhu Biao laughed twice: "Go, go, go back to your big tent and go to sleep."

"If it doesn't work, just sleep." Zhu Di lay there directly and said, "I won't go back."

Zhu Biao put down the drawing, came over and sat down beside him.

This kid is usually very arrogant, why did he suddenly become uncomfortable today.

Zhu Biao looked at him speechlessly: "All right, then you will sleep here tonight."

The two brothers were lying on the bed, Zhu Di babbled, and at the end, he glanced at Zhu Biao next to him: "Brother, did you listen to what I said?"

"Listen." Zhu Biao affirmed, "Always listen."

"Brother, I don't want to marry Xu Miaoyun." Zhu Di held his head and said, "I don't like her at all."

"Don't worry, fourth, you will like it very much."

Zhu Biao glanced at Zhu Di, if you kid know that you not only married her, but the couple is also very happy.

He will definitely regret saying this, Zhu Biao is waiting for the day when his fourth son Zhenxiang slaps him in the face.

"Impossible, if I like her, I will be your little follower for the rest of my life."

"I don't want your servant." Zhu Biao smiled and said, "Your brother has a lot of servants."

"Do you think the father and the queen have talked about us, and the second brother and the third brother didn't write us a letter." Zhu Di said in a rambling manner: "Brother, if we enter the grassland, we will all die together. "

"Bah bah, fourth child, you crow mouth said something unlucky." Zhu Biao got up and sat on the bedside and said, "Deng Yu and Zhao Yunsheng don't know what's going on. When they come back, they will formally attack the big city." grassland."

The night wind blows on the grassland, and the lush pasture dances with the wind. In the horse farm not far away, the tall and strong horses are silent in the night.

Some black shadows came from around, and they quietly crawled towards the racecourse.

At this moment, Hana's large tent was brightly lit.

There was still more than half of a roast leg of lamb on the table, and a glass of wine was filled: "Battle, why is there no news about Na Ren?"

"No." Battelle answered truthfully.

"Why did it take so long? Logically, she should have sneaked into the camp. But the Ming prince doesn't know if he is dead or not."

"Definitely will die."

"They have robbed so much land from us in Dayuan, so they, stupid Han people, should suffer." Hana nodded.

Battelle immediately poured wine for Hana again: "Wait a little longer, they will make a mess when Prince Ming dies, so we can take the opportunity to take back the Central Plains."

"That's right, that's right." Battelle quickly poured the wine and filled it up for Hana.
