Chapter 247 Greed, the beginning of all evil(1/2)
"I have to say it in front of His Majesty! Otherwise, I wouldn't even send me to the Imperial Hospital!" Kong Yanjin changed his mind and immediately chose to shut up. The things he originally planned to use to save his life could not be so easy.
Say it out.
Lu Zhong sighed. Kong Yanjin was obviously not as fooled as Zhao Hui. He shook his head and said, "Come on, I'll send it to the Imperial Hospital."
You can also say that when you arrive at the Imperial Hospital, there is no need to get anything in the Ming Dynasty as long as it is what His Majesty the Great Emperor wants?
No.
Let Lu Zicai and Xin Kejing, two good doctors, take a little slower... Lu Zhong gave up this idea.
Your Majesty once said that the Imperial Hospital is not allowed to participate in political affairs. Lu Zhongzhen passed by, that is asking for death.
Lu Zhong always had a respect for His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.
As a minister, Lu Zhong never dared to cross the line.
humble.
Kong Yanjin never expected that Lu Zhong was so decisive and kept wailing, asking Lu Zhong to come back, but Lu Zhong left the Heavenly Prison step by step and came to the evidence room.
There are a large number of evidences raided from the Confucius Mansion, and the Japanese silver alone is nearly three million taels!
This is probably the only number of His Majesty’s inner transportation warehouse. This is the only one that has been sent to the inner transportation warehouse after minting coins, and then the official fields in various places have been paid.
Kong Yanjin still has goods in his stomach, but His Majesty has issued a clear order, so he naturally wants to implement it. Even if he continues to interrogate, he will not be able to interrogate anything. Kong Yanjin and Xi Ning are the same people, and they will use up all their own.
All your strength, struggling to survive.
We cannot give anyone like Kong Yanjin any chance to climb up the pole.
Xining lasted for so long, but she didn't say until she died, who was the person in China?
Lu Zhong wandered around the evidence room for a long time. He looked through all the evidence one by one and made sure that he had not missed it.
So what's the problem?
Is it because I don’t pay enough attention to the details?
Lu Zhong took out boxes of Japanese silver from the box. He was suddenly stunned. There were some signs of soaking at the bottom of the silver box, and there was actually a layer of white crystal outside the silver box.
He took a little carefully and came to the sun. He looked at it for a long time and smelled it for a long time before he said in a daze: "Sea Salt?"
"sea salt!"
Lu Zhong immediately ordered people to move out all the silver boxes. There were many silver boxes, including white frost and sea salt.
And there are also seaweed, kelp silk ribbons and other attachments.
"The Japanese silver ingots actually came from the sea!" Lu Zhong was furious, and he immediately said loudly: "Go and take Kong Yanjin back, I'll report to Your Majesty for investigation!"
Lu Zhong immediately rushed out of the evidence room, rode a fast horse, and headed straight to the martial arts hall.
He went to the door of the martial arts hall, turned over and dismounted, ran very fast, ran into the martial arts hall, rushed upstairs like wind, and reported to him, he met His Majesty the Great Emperor who was preparing for the salt and iron meeting.
Lu Zhong bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, there is something wrong."
He took out a piece of Japanese silver ingot with his back hand, took some sea salt and dried kelp silk tape and said, "Your Majesty, this silver ingot was not forged in the mainland by overseas silver materials, but was from the sea, proving that this
The Kong Mansion has a silver field outside the sea, and it also casts silver in the silver field!"
Zhu Qiyu put down the meeting book of the salt and iron conference, took the silver ingot and the ocean, frowned and said, "Are you sure it's Haiyin?"
"I am sure."
Lu Zhong said with great certainty: "Your Majesty has been minting silver coins for more than a year. I went to the Military Bureau to escort silver coins several times. I have heard the eunuchs of the Military Bureau say that there is a strange thing in the Military Bureau, that is, there is no Yanzhou Prefecture.
Silversmith.”
"And there is no workshop in Yanzhou Prefecture. I thought it was the most sage and good place for the most sage masters, and I disdained such a stinky thing."
"I'm wrong! The Kong Mansion sent the silversmith to overseas cast silver!"
Zhu Qiyu smiled and said, "I am not surprised at all."
"It seems that Commander Lu still has certain expectations for them, hoping that they are the kind of people he says, so you are so angry."
"Give up any expectation from them, they will only mess up the Ming Dynasty."
Everyone can make money, but they will never be ruthless when digging into things like this.
"Is this worth the slightest bit of silver?" Lu Zhong was a little confused. His salary was enough for him, and it was enough for his children to study and learn to read. This was enough for him.
But it seems that some people, millions of taels of silver in their families, still have to do everything they can to make money, and only then will they give up when the head is landed and the whole tribe dies.
Zhu Qiyu said with a smile: "People have different ideas, they may have been used to it for a long time."
"I can't change their ideas, but as long as I get caught, I will send them to Emperor Taizu Gao, so I'm too lazy to argue with them about the cause of the problem."
"I'm only responsible for sending them over."
"Although you know you won't find any results, the Jinyiwei is still idle, so check and make up for it."
Lu Zhong thought about it and it was indeed the case. No matter what they thought, since they dared to be corrupt and abuse the law and reached out to places where they shouldn't have reached out, they would have to bear the price of being discovered.
He just needs to take charge of sending them away.
The human heart is too complicated, and for him, there is no need to explore it. That is the issue that Your Majesty should consider.
Zhu Qiyu sorted out the notes in his hand, and Xing'an whispered beside him: "Is this the reason why Your Majesty wants to fight corruption and arrest corruption?"
"Yes." Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Human desires are like rolling stones on the mountain. Once they start, they can never stop."
"Once there is a start, you will go further and faster."
"The last bang!, it was crushed to pieces!"
"What a brilliant family lintel of Yansheng Gong, how noble the Confucius Mansion is, and the role model of the world's officials, but what about them?"
"What have you done? The embezzlement of official fields, civilian fields, military fields, 100,000 hectares, ten thousand hectares more than me. I have connected with Japanese pirates and set up private markets, and I have to be another sky of the Ming Dynasty."
"Is there anything they dare not do? It's just an overseas banking market."
"Can they remember a little bit of courtesy, righteousness, integrity and shame reach this point today? Thousands of people curse, tens of thousands of people curse?"
"Today, the Xiang Palace is still singing and dancing to peace, but knowing that greed is the beginning of all evil."
Xing'an and Lu Zhong looked at each other, took a deep breath and said, "I am sure to be taught."
Zhu Qiyu stood up and said, "Let's go to the salt and iron meeting."
On the way to Zhu Qiyu's salt and iron conference, Huichangbo and the relative of the Empress Dowager Sun Zhong had already received the news that the son-in-law, Yan Shenggong was stripped of his title, Mizhou's private market was incorporated, and King Guangtong rebelled.
Sun Zhong jumped up angrily, and he slapped the letter on the table in anger: "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid! A group of idiots are all idiots!"
"Why did King Guangtong rebel now? Can't he wait for the emperor's camp to go out of the frontier? Why didn't King Guangtong contact the kings to rebel together? He jumped out because he wanted to be sacrificed by his Majesty to make other vassal kings dare not be good at it.
Move?"
"Is King Guangtong the Emperor's member? Or should he rebel?"
"He also changed his year name! Is he crazy?"
"It's so stupid! No! Yes!"
Sun Jizong poured a cup of tea to Sun Zhong and asked blankly: "Will the third brother send the orthodox treasure? The rebellion of King Guangtong is probably not going to be suppressed by the county magistrate."
"Give me a fart!" Sun Zhong sat on the throne, his anger was not gone. How could he do such a conspiracy with these idiots?
Is this accord to the great emperor? Or is it a rebellion for the great emperor?
"And there is also this Confucius Mansion. If you think there is a archway of the Confucius Temple, your Majesty dare not touch him? He also assassinated the governor, Censor Li Binyan! It's so stupid! I don't know what to say."
"When they started this private market, I told them, don't do it, don't do it, if something happens, which emperor can tolerate it? Even my grandson, King Jili who was fooled by others, could not tolerate it!
”
"For some money, good guy, I even paid for my own life! The whole family died!"
Sun Zhongren was already confused.
He is good at conspiracy and tricks. The Confucius Mansion and the Prince-Consort should be his fellow travelers. Everyone maintains a high level of tacit understanding and waits for a good opportunity to follow the trend.
The Emperor's rebellion was created!
Pull the emperor off!
This was a good thing. The emperor punched the left and right ones.
"If these people are not muddy, they can't do this!" Sun Zhong pointed to his forehead and said angrily.
Sun Jizong sighed and said, "Actually, the whole thing was because of Li Binyan's silly and honest man. In the last court discussion before the New Year, he impeached His Majesty's aunt, the old man. Otherwise, the situation in Shandong would have been ambiguous for a few years and would have ended slowly.
Now.”
"It's no wonder that the prince-in-law is the prince. Who knows that someone will impeach His Majesty's aunt? Who would have thought that His Majesty would investigate and deal with it directly!"
"There is also a Zhao Jin exposed in the Beijing Chase period. The pot from Shandong was uncovered."
Sun Zhong was stunned for a long time and was almost angry by these stupid people. It is okay to make some money, but if you are corrupt and abused, wouldn’t you give your Majesty a knife to kill him?
"Is Zhao Jin's investigation in Beijing because he wanted to defeat Li Binyan's neglect? As a result, Li Binyan did not leave, but Zhao Jin was beheaded?"
Sun Jizong sighed and nodded heavily.
