Zhu Yuanzhang nodded: "That's very good. The prince will work with the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Military and Horse Division to clean up all the houses in Yingtian City. Anyone who can take out one of the house deeds can be recognized as the homeowner. After measuring and drawing, a new land deed will be processed.
If neither of them can be taken out, it will be transferred to the government. If the person who occupies it wants to continue to live, he must rent or buy it from the government, otherwise he will move out. Biao'er, it is up to you to draft this memorial and discuss it in the court tomorrow.
."
Zhu Biao hurriedly agreed and went to write the booklet.
Zhu Bai stood still.
Zhu Yuanzhang tilted his head and asked, "What are you doing?"
Zhu Bai muttered: "Father hasn't said yet how to deal with these two families."
The key point is that one of the two families is Lao Zhu's concubine, and the other is Zhu Fan's father-in-law.
Previously, there were several elder brothers in power in the Bingma Division. Everyone thought he was a foil, so naturally they would not bear any grudge against him.
It's different now.
He couldn't find anyone to blame him for, so why would he do such an offending thing?!
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted: "Let us be the villains and villains."
Zhu Bai sighed: "I'm still a child."
Zhu Yuanzhang said to Erhu: "It is reported that Sun Ying and Xie Cheng are coming."
He pondered for a moment and then said: "Call Empress Ma and Concubine Sun to the back to listen."
-----
When Sun Ying and Xie Cheng arrived, Zhu Bai was sitting on a small chair next to Zhu Yuanzhang's desk, licking a piece of maltose.
The two of them were pounding in their hearts: They didn’t know what the young prince told Lao Zhu.
Everyone says that this little prince is very powerful, but he looks like an ordinary kid...
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Today, we heard someone tell a joke that there was a fat man stuck in the wall in Dongcheng."
Sun Ying started to sweat.
Xie Cheng also looked bad.
Zhu Yuanzhang went on to say: "We are thinking, could it be that we are too contemptuous of you and your mansion is too small to live in? That's why you have to fight for this one and a half feet of land?"
Xie Cheng also knelt down: "I know that I am guilty, and the emperor is very kind to me. I am too greedy, so when I go back, I will move the wall back to its original position."
Zhu Yuanzhang asked Zhu Bai: "How did that man get out later?"
Zhu Bai replied: "Thank you sir for tearing down the wall."
Xie Cheng glanced at Zhu Bai gratefully: Although his demolition of the wall had no practical effect, the child's words saved him.
Zhu Yuanzhang heard the problem and looked at Sun Ying with squinted eyes: "Master Sun is quite calm."
He even caused others to get stuck in the wall and almost died, but he didn't think of anything to do?!
Sun Ying's feet softened and she knelt down: "Your Majesty, forgive me."
In fact, Sun Ying's reputation is not very good, and this is not the first time she has occupied a neighbor's land and had a dispute with others.
It's just that he didn't cause any big trouble before, so Zhu Yuanzhang just turned a blind eye and didn't bother to care.
Xie Cheng is not that stingy, and he was probably pushed into a panic by Sun Ying.
Sun Guifei is also a noble concubine. Sun Ying even bullied the founding fathers, and she will do it again in the future!!
Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry at first, but now the more he thought about it, the more angry he became. He gritted his teeth and said, "Taking human life seriously! Who gave you the courage?"
Sun Ying kowtowed: "I was wrong."
"If I don't punish you severely today, how will we restrain the emperor's relatives in the future?" Zhu Yuanzhang shouted.
Queen Ma coughed lightly. Zhu Bai turned around blankly and saw Queen Ma winking at him.
Concubine Sun even knelt down in front of him.
Originally he didn't want to get involved in this matter, but he still has to live in this palace for a few more years...
Zhu Bai stood up and pulled Zhu Yuanzhang's sleeve: "Father."
Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head and looked at him.
Zhu Bai whispered: "The fat man is not dead or injured, he just lost a few pounds."
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned: That's right. No one was killed. Since there was no explicit provision in the beginning, it seemed wrong to punish Sun Ying heavily. Besides, it seemed a bit unfair to punish Sun Ying but not Xie Cheng.
He coughed dryly: "Since Lao Twelve is interceding for you, let's give him some face."
Xie Cheng hurriedly handed over to Zhu Bai: "Thank you, King Xiang."
Sun Ying kowtowed: "Thank you, King Xiang."
He sighed wildly in his heart: This kid is indeed a popular person around Lao Zhu.
If the child had had a better attitude and a more positive attitude when he first came here, he might not have been frightened this time.
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Although I won't punish you this time, you still have to make up for the mistakes you made. First, go and apologize to the merchant. Second, move the wall back. Third, restore the street. I entrust Lao Twelve to supervise it.
You must do these three things well. If you fail to do any of them, or if you make the same mistake again in the future, we will not be lenient."
Sun Ying and Xie Cheng hurriedly saluted: "I obey the order."
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "You two are relatives of the emperor and important ministers of the imperial court. You are a role model for the people of the world and a role model for all officials. As for how ugly it is to fight for this little territory? You should be more open-minded in the future and learn from that."
Wang Anshi, each give one and a half feet!!"
Sun Ying and Xie Cheng were ashamed and ashamed: "I am ashamed, the emperor taught me this."
------
Lao Zhu announced at the morning meeting the next day that he would investigate the fields of Yingtian Mansion.
Then there was another quarrel in the court like popping beans.
Hu Weiyong: "The emperor is wise and resolutely protects the emperor."
Yan Guan said: "Protest! This is depriving vulnerable groups of their right to live! These houses will be taken back to the Ministry of Household Affairs. If there are no suitable people to manage them, corruption will breed."
Hube said: "This is very good and very nice. Your Majesty, we love you."
The Ministry of Punishment said: "Please be sure to call us when your Majesty cleans out those mansions. I think we can catch half of the prisoners with a reward."
The Ministry of Personnel said: "The emperor took back these ownerless houses and also considered the welfare of the officials. Many low-level officials have no place to live."
The Ministry of Rites said: "Ah, Qin Tian Jian lacks a mansion on the top of the mountain to observe the stars at night. Please consider it at your own discretion."
The Ministry of Industry said: "Speaking of which, we also lack a place to test cannons..."
The Ministry of War said: "Hey, if you want to say this, I won't be sleepy. Come to us for the test of the artillery. We have live people."
Zhu Bai grinned and watched the fun, he was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth.
As usual, Zhu Yuanzhang waited for them to finish arguing and asked Hu Weiyong, Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen: "What else do you three have to add?"
Hu Weiyong handed over his hand: "Master Li knows everything about the world and is the best person to take charge of this matter."
Li Shanchang said: "I am willing to take on this important task."
Zhu Bai couldn't help cursing secretly: Li Shanchang, you old fox, of course you are willing. This job is too fat and oily. Hu Weiyong is just a peddler.
Liu Bowen said: "Please ask the emperor to let the prince take charge."
Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Well, then the prince will take the lead, Sir Liu, the King of Xiang will lead the household department, and the criminal department will assist."
This is a job that is highly visible and allows you to deeply experience the suffering of the people.
It would be most appropriate for Zhu Biao, the future successor of the empire, to do this.
Anyway, the dirty work and dangerous matters must be handled by the Military and Horse Department, the Ministry of Husbandry and the Ministry of Punishment. There are difficult problems that need to be solved with brains, as well as Liu Bowen and Zhu Bai.
