Chapter 145 War Reparations (2)

"Weichen and others will go through the trial with other yamen departments. In addition to lending, there is also private tea!"

Zhang Jue continued, "In the 29th year of Hongwu alone, Sheng Hengda sold private tea in the name of Zhou Fan, as high as 300,000 dan..."

He Guangyi slowly walked in amid the sound of Zhang Jue's music. Before he could salute, Zhu Yunyu listened to Zhang Jue's speech while pointing to the empty stool next to Li Jinglong, signaling you not to speak first and sit there for me.

"Actually, this kind of matter of private tea ban involves Zhou Fan..." Zhang Feng said, pausing, looking at Zhu Yunfeng's face, "After all, Zhou Fan's fiefdom is not good at producing tea, and some names are interrogated. I dare not be good at proficiency without the emperor's oral instructions, so I can only record and submit it to the emperor's holy dictator..."

Tea has been a heavy tax since ancient times and is one of the country's lifelines for its franchise.

When Shang Yang of Qin reforms, even though the chariots were broken and died, his law of governing the country has been passed down to this day. That is, as long as all things that live in the people must be controlled in the hands of the country, taxes must be imposed.

People in the world think that salt and iron are huge profits, but they do not know that the huge profits of tea are far better than salt and iron. To put it bluntly, it is the leaves of trees growing in the ground, not a necessity of life, but it is worth a hundred times the price.

More importantly, tea is only available in the Chinese dynasty, and it is unique. If the Hu people in Fanbang want it, they can only buy it at a high price.

According to the tea quota during the Hongwu period, a tea quota that can be sold for 60 kilograms of tea was the official price of 1,000 yuan in full copper coins, 300,000 dan... The number is shocking.

"What does it mean to be without my oral order? You dare not entrust yourself?"

Zhu Yunxi, who had been sitting expressionless, finally spoke, and his slender fingers kept hitting the table, "Since I asked you to investigate, I will give you full authority. Since there are illegal people involved in illegal things, why don't you dare to say one word or one word?" As he said that, Zhu Yunxi turned to look at Zhang Yun, "Are you really worried about me? Or do you dare not, so you speak out to me?"

"I dare not!" Zhang Feng hurriedly stood up and said, "I am ordered to handle this case, and I dare not have any selfishness. But there are some things in this case that are really involved, and the emperor has not fulfilled his inheritance of the throne..."

"I know what you are thinking!" Zhu Yunxiu interrupted the other party, "You are also dedicated to seeking stability!"

Needless to say, you can tell who tea is involved, just look at which places in the Ming Dynasty produce tea. Zhu Yunyu knew very well that those places had interactions with those vassal kings.

The words of the king and his minister just now were actually a balance.

Zhang Feng did not follow the relevant personnel for the tea, but clicked it because he couldn't figure out whether the emperor wanted to investigate it to the end or click it on the matter of King Zhou.

As the emperor, Zhu Yunyu can not pursue some things for the time being, but he must hold them in his hands.

What Zhu Yunyu said just now is that you, Zhang Yun, continue to investigate with confidence and boldness, no matter who is involved, and then report it to me. Whether I handle it or not is my business. If you ask you to investigate, you will have to dig three feet of the ground.

Everyone in the hall was smart. Except for Bao Zhao's only knowledge and always trying to speak, Li Jinglong and He Guangyi were silent.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes swept across their faces one by one.

At this time, the turtlema stepped forward softly again, "Long live the emperor, Xia Shu, the Minister of Justice, the Supervisor Censor Xin Yande, and the Minister of the Dali Temple Yang Jing are here, waiting outside!"

"It's time to come!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "Transfer!"

After a while, several second-rank and third-rank officials in charge of the Ming Dynasty came in one after another and bowed to him.

"Everyone sit down and reply!" Zhu Yunxiu took a sip of the teacup, "You all know that I am impatient with these rules in private!"

"I'm waiting for you to thank the emperor for your kindness!"

The small warm pavilion in the Ganqing Palace suddenly seemed a little crowded.

This is the place where the emperor works and lives. Outside is the dragon throne for meeting his ministers, and a small court meeting can be held. The warmer pavilion is the living room for meeting his ministers privately, and there is a very small bedroom inside.

I don’t know if it was because of the high temperature in the hall or what happened, but everyone’s faces seemed a little unnatural.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes swept across their faces one by one.

"A few days ago, I ordered Zhang Ju to work with you to handle this case. So far, some things in this case have been clues!"

"But..." Zhu Yunxi suddenly changed his mind, "I guess you know that this is just the tip of the iceberg!"

As he said that, Zhu Yunxiu sneered on his face, "When the Supreme Emperor was in power, the rivers were clear and the sea were peaceful. How long did I succeed to the throne? Is it because I was not virtuous enough, or were these people hiding too deeply?"

Hula, the ministers couldn't sit still, and they all stood up.

Zhu Yunxi's eyes swept over one by one, and finally fell on He Guangyi's face.

"You have read the file and you know everything?"

"I have seen it, and I know it!" He Guangyi quickly kowtowed.

"Earlier, I thought of raising you, the commander of the Jinyiwei, and it was not without the intention of rectifying the situation!" Zhu Yunxi sighed, "After all, when the Emperor of the Supreme Emperor, your Jinyiwei had the right to investigate and judge the case without a minister, so that officials in the world were afraid of talking!"

"I also think that I used to torture or be harsh when dealing with officials, and even more, I think that the state has laws to suppress evil with goodness. But now it seems that I am wrong! And it is a big mistake! "

Upon hearing this, the civil officials were stunned, and then their hearts were stuttering.

Could it be...

Zhu Yunxiu picked up the documents on the table and shook his hands, "He Guangyi, I want to kill someone!"

"I am so sad!" He Guangyi said loudly.

"Go and arrest!" The document was thrown directly into He Guangyi's arms by Zhu Yunxi. "Who is involved? Anyone who has no official position should be imprisoned. I will be imprisoned in the imperial prison of your Beizhenfu Department..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the civil officials looked pale.

The emperor wants to...is he going to start a massacre like the Hongwu Dynasty?

"After finding out, I will report it to you!" Zhu Yunxi continued, "For example, those who lend money and invade land and sell inferior official grains are all treated as the law of the Supreme Emperor..."

Great edict?

Among the civil officials, such as the old minister Xia Shu and others, they were almost shocked to stand unsteadily.

In the great imperial edict of the Supreme Emperor, the lightest thing to deal with human traffickers was to cut off their hands and feet and search the house for exile. He took off the skin and cramps and lit the sky lanterns, peeled the skin and filled the grass to make it into a human skin drum and human skin mattress, and cut it into pieces and cut it into pieces...

Thinking about it, it makes people shudder.

Zhang Yu's hands began to tremble. Just selling inferior official grain involves three prefectures and eight counties. How many lives would that be?

Besides, if the Jinyiwei scholars investigated and dealt with this matter with full authority, all departments would not be able to intervene. Those who were like wolves and tigers would be afraid that the matter would not be big, and they would be even more decisive.

At that moment, I couldn't help but speak, "Your Majesty, be careful! Think twice!"
