As soon as these words came out, the whole court was in uproar!
I am willing to use my life to sue Xia Yuanji, the Minister of War!
When Xia Yuanji heard this, he kowtowed immediately.
"Your Majesty, we are such a reckless man and we don't dare to be disloyal to the Ming Dynasty in the slightest!"
Zhu Gaoyang waved his hand and ordered someone to help him up. He turned to Lin Tianran and said solemnly:
"Oh? How come you, commoners, have anything to do with that minister of the dynasty?!"
"You know some words can't be stopped by just one or two heads!"
After speaking, Zhu Gaoying was filled with anger, and his tone also contained a lot of murderous intent.
The man smiled slightly, as if mocking Zhu Gaoyan's incompetence.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I know the seriousness of the matter, but if I can use my life to exchange for the peace of the poor people in the world, I will be honored even if I die!"
Zhu Gaoyan waved his hand and said:
"Let's start from the beginning and I, the Zhu family, will definitely give you justice!"
After hearing this, the smile on Lin Tianran's lips became much smaller.
Tell his story.
It turned out that that man was originally a scholar from Huaixi, and the family worked hard to support him and his brother, two civil and military officials.
A double star, both from the same mother!
For a time, the entire Huaiyou Lin family was in the limelight.
But how could we know that the Tian family was moody and sent countless soldiers to the deep mountains and forests just to harvest some pine oil.
His brother is a martial artist, so naturally he cannot escape such an errand.
The mountainous area is full of dangers, and by chance, his brother's team was attacked by a mountain tiger!
His brother was the only one left alive in the standard team!
His brother was unwilling to give in, and finally dragged the remaining corpses of his brothers back to the team and then committed suicide by jumping off a cliff. Their bodies are still unknown.
When Zhu Gaoying heard this, his head was filled with black threads, and he gradually became really angry.
"Hold on, I know what you're saying, but does it have something to do with Xia Yuanji?"
"I asked him to do all these things. Do I have to explain my will to you?"
When Lin Tianran saw that Zhu Gaoyuan had activated the real fire, he said repeatedly, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will get to the critical point soon."
A few words speed up the narration process.
After his brother died, there was a so-called death benefit according to Ming law.
But when Lin Tianran went to the military camp, he discovered that his brother had no account of the money at all!
Not only his brother, but all the soldiers who died in the mountains did not have this amount!
For a time, Lin Tianran was so disheartened that he resigned in anger and sued the governors at all levels.
But all the complaints were thrown into the water, and none of them received a response.
I had no choice but to walk all the way from Huaixi to Yingtian Mansion, just to seek justice!
Just to seek the justice they deserve for those soldiers who died in the mountains!
By the time he finished speaking, Lin Tianran had already burst into tears.
He had an excellent future and endless glory and wealth.
But he would rather risk his life to seek justice for his brother!
The entire court fell into dead silence.
Zhu Gaotian looked at the kneeling Xia Yuanji with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Shang Shu, do you think this is true?"
Xia Yuanji noticed Zhu Gaoyan's cold tone and immediately kowtowed and said:
"Your Majesty, we have paid subsidies to every family of these fallen soldiers! Please give your Majesty a clear warning!"
Not long after, Xia Yuanji's forehead was completely red and covered with blood.
Seeing that Xia Yuanji didn't look like he was cheating, Zhu Gaoyan waved his hand to the Minister of the Ministry of Finance and came forward.
"You, dig out the appropriations given to the Ministry of War in the past two months, penny by penny. I want to take a closer look to see how bold you are to eat this money!"
When Lin Tianran saw that Zhu Gaoying was so serious, he sincerely gave Zhu Gaoying a big gift for the first time.
"My Holy Emperor, I hope that my Emperor will investigate this matter thoroughly. I will thank my Emperor on behalf of thousands of poor people in the world!"
Zhu Gaoyang nodded and helped Lin Tianran up with his own hands.
"Don't worry, my Zhu family has never dared to chill the hearts of the people?"
"I, Zhu Gaoyen, am here to assure the people of the world in front of all the civil and military officials that the Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty of the people of the world! I will not disappoint the people of the world!"
In an instant, all civil and military officials knelt down and shouted:
"My emperor will live forever! Long live my emperor!"
…
Not long after, the Minister of Civil Affairs arrived in front of the main hall carrying two large boxes of approval documents.
Zhu Gaoyan opened the approval document in the main hall and carefully compared it one by one.
During this period, Yang Shiqi and Su Wu wanted to help, but Zhu Gaoyan sternly refused.
What he is looking through now is not only the account books of the Ming Dynasty, but also the face of his Zhu family!
The reason why he wanted to make such a big splash was to tell the people all over the world.
Heaven is not alone! The Ming Dynasty is still here!
Soon, half a day passed, and no one from the civil and military officials dared to go down to the palace.
Su Wu saw that Zhu Gaoying had not stopped thinking, so he repeatedly tried to dissuade him: "Come on, please take care of your dragon body. It won't be too late for us to deal with it tomorrow."
Zhu Gaoying shook his head and suppressed the anger in his heart.
"If you're not in a hurry now, then when will you be in a hurry?"
"Are you waiting for the other Zhu Yuanzhang to come out?"
As soon as these words came out, needles could be heard in the court, and no one dared to say another word.
He just watched Zhu Gaotian quietly flipping through the account books.
Many of them were sweating profusely from their foreheads, fearing that it would affect them!
It’s no wonder that Zhu Gaoyang was so angry, it’s just that there are too many problems with the official’s account book!
The soldiers' compensation for death in battle was only a meager five taels.
And the governor of a province needs a subsidy of 80 taels per meal?!
This group of people dared to take the lives of nearly twenty people in one meal!
Zhu Gaotian suddenly dropped his account book and looked around.
For a time, the Ming Dynasty that he was so proud of suddenly became so strange to him.
He couldn't believe it, he had obviously been very kind to them.
How dare someone lie in front of you?!
If someone hadn't sounded the drum of grievance today, wouldn't I still be living in a dream?!
"Inspection Division, listen to the order! From today on, we will conduct a thorough investigation of each official's family bank balance. If there is any discrepancy in the accounts, all will be reported to the police!"
"The Jinyi Guards will obey orders and fully cooperate with the Inspection Department. If any official commits an offense and refuses to comply, he will be executed!"
Among the hundreds of officials, a red-robed official immediately kowtowed and said: "I will obey the imperial edict!"
Outside the door, a group of men wearing Feiyu uniforms also knelt down silently.
"I will obey the emperor's will!"
Seeing that he had finally succeeded this time, Lin Tianran cried and laughed at the same time, with snot and tears all over his face.
After a long time, he calmed down and bowed to Zhu Gaojing for the second time.
Maybe, this Ming Dynasty is still good?
Maybe this emperor is really a good official?
It's a pity that he can't wait any longer.
When the guards went to help Lin Tianran, they saw that he had black blood coming out of his mouth. It was obvious that he had been poisoned for a long time.
Zhu Gaoying was furious and was about to order a thorough investigation when he suddenly saw the final letter in his hand.
The letter paper is thin and the handwriting is flying, but it is filled with his strategies for governing the country word for word.
It turned out that this man had already taken poison, and he came here to avenge his death!
