Chapter 37 Lao Zhu’s arrangements and tasks!(1/2)

 When Zhu Yunhui walked into the imperial study, he found that the atmosphere seemed to be a little wrong.

Zhao Mian, the Minister of Revenue, whom he had met before, is also there.

He lowered his head, looking trembling.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked serious and looked chilled.

"Grandpa Emperor, what's wrong?"

Zhu Yunhui walked forward and asked in a low voice.

Seeing Zhu Yunhu, Lao Zhu's gaze suddenly became much softer.

"Ye'er, thanks to you."

"Otherwise, we wouldn't know that there are so many borers in the Ming Dynasty."

"Why can't I kill all these corrupt officials?"

Old Zhu slapped the table hard.

"Has the corrupt official been found again?" Zhu Yunhuang understood in an instant.

"Your Highness, thanks to the double bookkeeping method you invented."

Zhao Mian, who was standing aside, explained: "The Ministry of Revenue used this method to reorganize the account books and conduct audits, and found many problems and mismatched accounts, especially the branch official Wailang, who was corrupt and abused the law, colluded with the clerks, and embezzled a lot of money from the state treasury."

Lao Zhu picked up the memorial on the table and handed it to him and said, "Ye'er, you can take a look first."

Zhu Yunhui took over the memorial, which recorded every amount of money Sima Sheng embezzled.

"In the tenth year of Hongwu, Jiangxi suffered a flood. The imperial court drew 900,000 taels of money and grain, and Sima Sheng privately hid 300,000 taels of money and grain."

"In the 11th year of Hongwu, the imperial court allocated 1 million taels of money and grain to reward border soldiers, and Sima Sheng privately kept 200,000 taels."

"In the fifteenth year of Hongwu, there were famines in spring and summer, and the plagues were prevalent, and the people died one after another. The court allocated 3 million taels of relief, and Sima Sheng secretly kept 800,000 taels."

"The locust plague in the 16th year of Hongwu... Sima Sheng privately hid 300,000 taels..."

This is the information that has been sorted out, one by one, and the records are very detailed.

Zhu Yun's eyes were shocking.

The branch official Wailang is just a sixth-rank official.

From the tenth year of Hongwu to the present, in the past fifteen years, millions of taels have been embezzled.

The Ministry of Revenue hasn't noticed it yet?

His thoughts flew around.

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly asked, "How have you tried the Bu family's case?"

Zhu Yunxiu said: "Go back to the emperor, the child has ordered the prefect Yingtian to find out the case as soon as possible and strive to open the trial as soon as possible."

Lao Zhu knew everything about the mansion, and the Jinyiwei was everywhere.

He had already experienced it.

What criticized Gu Duan today might have already reached Lao Zhu's ears.

There is no need for him to hide it.

"There is no rush to do this." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Let's give you a new task."

"Grandpa Emperor, what are you going to do?"

Zhu Yunhui felt nervous and vaguely felt that it was not a good thing.

"We want you to lead your troops and confiscate the Sima family. If there is any resistance, there will be no mercy."

Zhu Yuanying was stunned.

House search, murder?

Did Old Zhu actually entrust him to do such a thing?

For a moment, Zhu Yunhui was a little overwhelmed.

Since he traveled through time to this world, he has always lived as a child.

Zhu Yunying admires some of the protagonists in online novels in his previous life.

Once you travel to another world, you can kill people without any psychological burden.

No matter how bloody the scene is, they cannot shake their minds.

He asked himself that he could not do it yet.

Although I know this society, human life is as low as grass.

He also witnessed Lao Zhu casually ordered people to be beaten to death by sticks.

But he still couldn't accept it if he really wanted to do these things himself.

He grew up in a peaceful era in his previous life. From childhood to adulthood, he never slaughtered a chicken himself.

Not to mention killing people.

These things are so far away from him.

It is not easy to take this step.

In an instant, Zhu Yun thought a lot.

Why did he send a seven-year-old baby to lead the team when he was copying Sima Sheng’s family?

What is Lao Zhu’s intention to do this?

"Hao'er."

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw him stunned, he seemed to feel a little distressed and guilty in his eyes.

"Grandpa Emperor knows that this matter is a bit difficult for you. But as the children and grandchildren of the old Zhu family, this is something you must experience."

"While Grandpa is in good health now, he can still keep you an umbrella and shelter you from the wind and rain, you must grow up as soon as possible."

Zhu Yunying stood there, staring at Lao Zhu without answering.

Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and said, "You have done a good job in Bu Geng's business. It is indeed in line with the laws of the Ming Dynasty."

"But being the children and grandchildren of our Zhu family, it is far from enough to act according to the law."

"You have to learn to be cruel."

"If Grandpa Emperor was present, he would definitely beat Bu Geng to death on the spot, to correct the country's laws and to the hearts of the common people."

"Although you ordered to knock out Bu Geng's teeth, it was just because he scolded you, and he scolded you too hard."

"Even so, you still haven't killed him."

"Because you can't bear it, you don't want to kill anyone."

"No matter which uncle or uncle of yours, if anyone dares to scold them like this, they will never tolerate it and will kill him on the spot."

"How can my descendants of Zhu and the emperor be tolerate such insults?"

"But your heart is so kind."

"Charity does not control the army, and benevolence does not take power."

"As the emperor's grandson, you should not be so soft-hearted."

Zhu Yunhuang looked at Lao Zhu and felt complicated.

Coming from modern civilized society, even if he arrested a murderer, his first reaction was to arrest him and hand him over to the yamen for punishment.

Even if someone provokes him or scolds him, he may be angry and beat people, but it will not kill people!

Unexpectedly, this would become a serious shortcoming in Lao Zhu's eyes.

"Yu'er, are you scared?"

Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

The voice seemed to be kind and stern.

"Grandpa Emperor...I..."

"You saw just now, how much money Sima Sheng has embezzled over the years?"

"This is the people's wealth and the flesh and blood of the soldiers on the front line."

"A kindness to such people is cruel to the people."

"He deserves to die!"

A cold murderous aura was condensed in Lao Zhu's eyes.

The temperature in the study seemed to drop a little.

Zhu Yunhu subconsciously shivered.

Although Lao Zhu was right, Zhu Yunhui was still a little unacceptable for a while.
