Chapter 165

After Jiajing issued the execution of the people, he handed them over to Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao was going to finish the account book and then go to Xu Jie's house for dinner.

"By the way, you just said, "I've gotten rich, how much did those people have corruption in total?" Jiajing thought of this and asked as he looked at Zhang Hao.

"You can just do it. Who can be less than 200,000 taels in their family? The more may be 700,000 taels, or 200,000 taels, right? Thirty-three officials, well, more than 6 million taels, by the way, the emperor, have to pay back the money? You will have money soon!" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing and asked.

"Ah, pay back the money, oh, that, I haven't even got the money. I'll talk about it after I get it, more than 6 million taels, okay, okay, it's so cruel. The Ming Dynasty was made like this by these borers. With so much money, I have to do something, the Yellow River and the Huai River will be repaired again, um!" Jiajing sat there thinking about these things,

I had no money before and couldn't do many things. Now that I have money, Jiajing will not know what to do for a while, and I can do anything.

"Emperor, I think the most important thing now is to exempt taxes, exempt people from taxes, and let people recuperate, but they are afraid that those corrupt officials will collect money by themselves, so that will be troublesome. Your Majesty, the people are very miserable!" Zhang Hao sat there, looking at Jiajing and said.

After hearing this, Jiajing nodded. Rebellion continued everywhere because he couldn't survive.

"Okay, then part of the tax will be exempted. I will ask the Ministry of Revenue to discuss and see where the exemption will be exempted!" Jiajing said.

"That's fine!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.

"By the way, you go to Xu Jie's house for dinner, remember, don't drink. You are not old yet, so I will talk about it after getting married. In addition, what should I do if I am worried that you will drink, get angry, and hammer them to death? Remember? Also, if they want you to drink, you will say that you will come here to pay the price in the evening." Jiajing reminded Zhang Hao.

"Okay!" Zhang Hao nodded.

"Well, try not to get angry as much as possible. You can't help but hold it back. There is no need. They are still useful now. I need to take it slowly! You, everything is good, but you have a bad temper. When others anger you, you will get angry!" Jiajing pointed at Zhang Hao and said.

"No, I have the best temper!" Zhang Hao immediately retorted.

"Yes, yes, good!" Jiajing didn't want to fight with Zhang Hao, so he couldn't.

"Anyway, if you don't say anything else, you have to pay me back the money. I also want to help the people more and let them live a good life in the capital!" Wei Hao said to Jiajing.

"Okay, I know, I know!" Jiajing waved his hand and left and paid back the money. Is it possible? I have to borrow money and pay it back?

Lu Fang knew Jiajing's idea best, and he also held back his laughter. The emperor had tried every means to cheat Zhang Hao of money. Now that the money has been obtained, can he still pay it back?

After Zhang Hao settled the bill, he said to Jiajing and left. Jiajing sat there, touched his head and asked Lu Fang, saying, "Hey, do you think I chose a better prefect and then let Zhang Hao come back? I owe this money to Shuntian Prefecture, not Zhang Hao!"

"Your Majesty, if you don't return this, he can't do you?" Lu Fang said to Jiajing.

"Where is the money?" Jiajing pointed at the pile of money behind Zhang Hao's seat. When Lu Fang saw that, he had no dividends yet. The money was still in Zhang Hao's hands. If he didn't pay it back, Zhang Hao would definitely deduct it in it.

"Yes, the emperor, but I see that Zhang Hao is very concerned about Shuntian Mansion. If you want to transfer him away, what should he do if he gets angry? You also know his temper. He just said that he hopes to do something for the people?" Lu Fang looked at Jiajing in embarrassment and said.

"Aren't I just worried about this? Well, let's see, when Zhang Hao has completed almost everything, he will get him back. Besides, he is a military general, how can he do the work of a civil servant, right?" Jiajing looked at Lu Fang and continued, Lu Fang nodded. Anyway, everything is what you said, it's too naughty!

"Okay, let's take a look first!" Jiajing said,

Zhang Hao also arrived at Xu Jie's mansion at this moment. He was still on the way and saw Xu Fan standing at the door waiting.

"Brother-in-law!" Zhang Hao smiled and said hello.

"You are here, hurry up, please come inside, my father and two other ministers are waiting for you inside!" Xu Fan said to Zhang Hao with a smile.

"Well, please, I have something to do. Besides, it's too early!" Zhang Hao said with a smile, and soon the two of them arrived at the living room. When Xu Jie and the other two saw Zhang Hao coming, they all stood up. Liang, who was beside him, was a little shocked.

"Hello, three masters, and hello, mother-in-law!" Zhang Hao immediately bowed and said after entering the hall.

"Okay, okay, come, sit down, wait for you, can you serve the food?" Liang said with a smile. "Serve the food, eat and chat, is that good?" Xu Jie said as he looked at Zhang Hao.

"Okay, but before coming, the emperor specifically told me not to drink. I would go to the palace to be on duty tonight. I would drink for fear of delaying the matter." Wei Hao said to the three of them.

The three of them nodded when they heard this.

"Come on, sit down and talk!" Xu Jie said to Zhang Hao. Zhang Hao sat on Xu Jie's left hand, while Lu Ben sat on the right hand, and Yan Song sat at the bottom. This was also the seat they discussed. Logically speaking, Yan Song was sitting on the top no matter where he went to eat, but when he arrived at Xu Jie, he had to admit defeat. There was no way, Zhang Hao was there.

"Zhang Hao, if you don't drink, I'll let your elder brother make some tea for you, okay?" Xu Jie asked, so kind.

"Okay!" Zhang Hao nodded.

"Okay, it's going to be done soon!" Xu Fan also reacted quickly, knowing that they must have something to ask Zhang Hao for him to come here today.

He also knew the rumors outside now, and he also knew the comments of the people outside. They all said that Zhang Hao was a good official and the master of Qingtian. This was even more so for the people outside the capital. They said that Zhang Hao was good for the sake of the people's officials, not those corrupt officials.

"Come on, Zhang Hao, I've soaked a lot, drink it slowly!" Xu Fan came over and said with a small teapot.

"Okay, thank you brother-in-law. You can do this together, just squeeze it!" Zhang Hao immediately stood up and said.

"Don't, you have a serious business, you can talk, I can start first, you can talk!" Xu Fan suppressed Zhang Hao and said.

"Nothing is wrong. A small thing. Isn't it just to ask me not to investigate the corrupt officials' affairs? Come, sit down and eat together!" Zhang Hao stood up, held a stool and placed it beside him.

"This?" Xu Fan was a little afraid to sit down.

"Come on, sit down, you two need to be close. Yan Song reacted and knew that Xu Fan might be more useful than Xu Jie, so he immediately said enthusiastically. Lu Ben reacted quickly and asked Xu Fan to sit down. When Xu Jie saw that they all agreed, he nodded and said, "Okay, you can drink tea with Zhang Hao."

"Okay!" Xu Fan sat down.

"Where is my brother-in-law on duty now?" Zhang Hao asked at Xu Fan.

"Now I'm walking in the Ministry of Rites, I'm here to be kind!" Xu Fan immediately said with a smile.

"What's the fun of the Ministry of Rites? In this way, come to my Shuntian Mansion to be the governing center. Don't learn from your father. Your father knows how to play and doesn't know how to govern the people at all!" Zhang Hao immediately said to Xu Fan.

"Ah?" Xu Fan looked at Zhang Hao in surprise.

Xu Jie was so depressed that he was still sitting here, just saying bad things in front of him.

"Really, if you want to be an official, you must be an official who seeks benefits for the people. Your father, no, you just know what the use of seeking benefits for those corrupt officials. Then the emperor will deal with those corrupt officials. If you don't deal with your father, you will not be able to get it. You, draw a clear line for him. Let me tell you, it's best to cut off the relationship between father and son!" Zhang Hao sat there and said to Xu Fan.

"Zhang Hao, you!" Xu Jie was so depressed. Is there such a son-in-law? After all, he was his father-in-law. He actually instigated his son to cut off the father-son relationship with him.

"Oh, by the way, hehe, I forgot, you're here too, that's fine, I won't say it anymore, brother-in-law, anyway, don't be greedy, look for me with a shortage of money, you know, I have the skill of soap, I've made money!" Zhang Hao said as he picked up the teacup and said to Xu Fan.

"Hey, okay, but, can you give my father a face next time?" Xu Fan said with a wry smile at Zhang Hao.

"What kind of face is given to him? I tell you, this is also my sister's engagement. If I hadn't, I would have beaten him to death. It's not a good thing. This is not an official. I know how to protect those corrupt officials. The people don't care about them!" Zhang Hao said contemptuously, just disdainful to look at Xu Jie.

"Zhang Hao, why don't I ignore the people?" Xu Jie was so angry that he always said he wanted to hammer himself to death.

"You don't know what happened outside the capital. You asked, I caught them, you still want to persuade me. Are you asking? Mr. Xu, you must be a little conscientious as an official!

It’s not that you have a high status now that you forget how you came out. There are also Master Yan and Master Lu, you three are all people who have been in the official career for half their lives. There are also many people who have left their reputation in history, and many of them have made bad reputations. Do you hope that in the future history books, Yan Song, the most corrupt official of the Ming Dynasty and a treacherous minister, are you willing to see it? Don’t say that you have a good reputation in history. At least, don’t let the people scold you, you know the rumors outside, right? Why?

One day, you three will disguise yourself and go to the people to hear what the people say about you? Do you know the three biggest corrupt officials in the Ming Dynasty?" Zhang Hao sat there, looking at them and said.

"This, slander!" Yan Song was also anxious now, and Lu Ben shivered even more angry.
