Chapter 250 Jiajing protects the calf
Chapter 250
Yan Song asked Xu Jie to send him to the Danfang himself, but they didn't go there. If they wanted to plead, they would let Xu Jie go and plead.
Lu Ben, who was standing beside him, sighed and said, "It's not a matter of love now. If other ministers in the court find out about this, they may start to make trouble again, so we all have to go there!"
Lu Ben was worried that the ministers would impeach. If the emperor did not deal with Zhang Hao, the ministers would definitely be dissatisfied. At that time, the designated impeachment memorials would be everywhere.
"Gemaster Lu, this, Liu Wu will commit a crime first, and resist stubbornly and be killed by Zhang Hao, isn't it wrong?" Xu Jie looked at Lu Ben and said. As soon as Lu Ben said this, Xu Jie knew what was going on. It was just to convict Zhang Hao.
"That's right, but is Zhang Hao qualified to kill people? Is there no other way to deal with this matter? Can't Zhang Hao wait for Liu Wu to arrest him after he comes back? He insisted on killing him on the spot. Zhang Hao did this, where should the Ministry of Justice be placed, and where should the Dali Temple be placed? There is still a court in his eyes? Is there a law? Is there a cabinet?" Lu Ben stared at Xu Jie and questioned. When Xu Jie heard this, he also looked at Lu Ben.
"Gemaster Xu, Gemaster Yan's meaning is not to convict Zhang Hao's crimes, but we need to set an example to let the ministers know that our cabinet is not going to deal with it!" Yan Song immediately said to Xu Jie,
Xu Jie nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go together, Wang Shangshu will go together too!"
As he said that, Xu Jie left outside. Yan Song looked at Lu Ben and sighed, "There is no way. Now the officials have a lot of opinions about the cabinet. Lu Ben, the chief minister of the cabinet, is also difficult to be.
Soon, they arrived at the Danfang. Jiajing was chanting scriptures. It was okay. He finished reading the memorials in the morning. There was nothing wrong in the afternoon. There were no other entertainment activities, and there was no closeness to women. Zhang Hao was not here, so Jiajing could only recite scriptures.
"Emperor, the three cabinet ministers and the Minister of War QQ asked for a meeting!" An eunuch came in and said to Jiajing who was sitting on the platform.
"Well, let them come in!" Jiajing was stunned when he heard this, thinking about whether there was another war on the border. Soon, the four of them came in. After facing Jiajing's heart, Jiajing gave him a seat.
"What's the matter? Let the four of you come together?" Jiajing asked as he looked at them.
"Your Majesty, this is the memorial of Yu Wanpeng from Xuanhua. Please read it!" Wang Bangrui stood up, held the memorial and spoke,
Lu Fang immediately took it over, opened it and confirmed that there was nothing, and handed it over to Jiajing. Jiajing was also confused. Could it be that the fight really started, and the Tatars dared to come. Zhang Hao was there and brought 10,000 imperial guards over there. Jiajing thought that the problem should not be big, and Zhang Hao could solve the Tatars. Jiajing took the memorial and looked at the memorial carefully.
"What a bold thing. Liu Wu dares to smuggle. No wonder our Ma City has been losing money. How can we not lose money?" Jiajing shouted at the four of them in a furious manner, as if he hadn't noticed that Zhang Hao had killed Liu Wu.
"Your Majesty, Liu Wu deserves to die, but Zhang Hao's hammering of Liu Wu is not in line with the law. The Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple will definitely have opinions. In addition, the generals on the Ministry of War will also have opinions!" Lu Ben stood up and said to Jiajing.
"Hmm? Shouldn't you die?" Jiajing heard this and took the memorial and looked at it again. It was Zhang Hao who was beaten to death, no problem.
"It's damn, but it also needs to be arrested and sent to the capital for interrogation. It's not OK to be hammered to death like this!" Lu Ben continued to bow and said.
"It's nothing wrong. I asked him to kill him. I said that if anyone dares to commit a crime there, he will kill him!" Jiajing closed the memorial and spoke. All four of them looked at Jiajing in surprise. This guardian was not such a guardian.
"Your Majesty, this, this!" Lu Ben didn't know what to say at this moment. The emperor took the blame. How should the ministers impeach it?
"Liu Wu deserves to die. Zhang Hao killed him, and he also seized so much private salt. He has made contributions. But a general who actually did such a thing. Is the cabinet not responsible? Is the Ministry of War not responsible?" Jiajing stared at Lu Ben and asked. Lu Ben and the others were asked without saying anything. Jiajing obviously did not intend to hold Zhang Hao accountable.
"Your Majesty, those ministers do not agree to this matter. This is not in line with the law of our Ming Dynasty!" Lu Ben said to Jiajing again.
"Then let them submit an impeachment memorial, my order, and my order!" Jiajing looked at Lu Ben very stubbornly and asked.
"This is what the ministers outside will make it clear and let them think clearly!" Lu Ben didn't know how to answer, but it was a bit unreasonable for Jiajing to ask such a question.
"By the way, I haven't asked clearly about the matter of Kaima City. Who is the deficit in the Ma City? Is it from the Ministry of Revenue or my?" Jiajing sat there and continued to ask.
The cabinet did not agree with the matter in Ma City last time because it would lose money. However, Jiajing wanted to let Zhang Hao stay away from the capital first, so he agreed and asked Zhang Hao to go there to do it. Isn’t it that a general has been killed now? Or was it arrested for smuggling, and there was pig iron in it. The more such generals killed, the better!
"This, the Ministry of Revenue has no money!" Lu Ben immediately bowed and said. "Your Majesty, the Ministry of Revenue has no money in this matter. If you want to pay, you should pay it first!" Yan Song also bowed to Jiajing and said. "Is it?" Jiajing stared at them dissatisfied and asked, "The three of them stopped talking.
"Wow, okay, I'm out, the Ministry of Revenue has no money. I'm responsible for the matter of Ma City. Let the Ministry of Justice launch an investigation into Liu Wu and search his house. In addition, the Ministry of War should not arrange a general for the first time, and let Zhang Hao serve as the general of this town. That's it!" Jiajing continued to speak.
"Yes, the emperor!" the four of them immediately bowed and then saw Jiajing knocking on the slut, and the four of them bowed out immediately.
When they arrived outside the Danfang, the four people looked at each other and smiled bitterly. The emperor was too protective of Zhang Hao. He actually said that Zhang Hao was right and had his decree. How should he impeach him next? Moreover, the ministers outside, regardless of whether it was the emperor's decree or not, would continue to submit memorials. This would arouse Jiajing's dissatisfaction and everyone would not have a good life.
"Okay, okay, let me tell the ministers clearly. If they are willing to impeach, they will impeach us. We don't care!" Lu Ben said in front of him,
Xu Jie was still a little happy. His son-in-law was indeed amazing. It was nothing wrong. Lu Ben wanted Zhang Hao to be punished. Now, there was nothing wrong.
"What does this bastard mean? If Yu Wanpeng writes such a memorial, what day will it be today?" Jiajing sat there, looking at Lu Fang angrily and asked.
"Your Majesty, it's already the eighth day!" Lu Fang reported immediately.
"It's been eight days, and there is not a single letter, and I don't write a memorial. I've killed a general, and I don't write a letter?" Jiajing stared at Lu Fang and shouted.
"Your Majesty, I don't know about this slave. He should come back in a few days, right? Then, your husband, you scold him!" Lu Fang didn't know how to excuse Zhang Hao. This bastard is not good. It's been eight days, and there is not even a news.
"You, write a letter to Zhang Hao immediately, and say, kill Zhang Hao and pay a salary of 100 years. According to the salary of his current admiral, in addition, if you arrive in Xuanhua, you will not report it and pay a salary of 100 years, totaling two hundred years. How much does the admiral's salary cost per year?" Jiajing said and asked Lu Fang.
Lu Fang looked at Jiajing in shock. The admiral's salary was more than 800 taels of silver a year. In the past 200 years, 160,000 taels of silver have been gone. Can Zhang Hao be able to do it? He will be able to return to Chang'an to retire.
"Your Majesty, are you a little cruel? This will be gone for 160,000 taels, and Zhang Hao may not do it!" Lu Fang persuaded Jiajing.
"No matter he, oh, I'm worried now. Do you know how much soap and soap sell in a day? Together, I estimated the cost of all the costs, and it would definitely not be 30,000 taels. In other words, the profit per day is about 100,000 taels, and in two months, it's 600 million taels.
Even if the soap was not much money just now, it had a lot of stocks before, and the sales volume was not much, but it would not be less than 5 million taels. 20% of it, 1 million taels, this bastard shared so much money.
I just dare to give it to him. Will Zhang Rong dare to take it? Don’t scare Zhang Rong to death? And Zhang Rong has made so much money. What do other guilds think? What would those vassal kings think? I was afraid when I heard the dividends of more than 6 million taels a year. A few years ago, the tax in the court was only 6 million yuan, and his family paid 6 million taels a year!" Jiajing stared at Lu Fang and touched his head and said worriedly.
"This, this, so much?" Lu Fang was also a little scared. So much money may not be a good thing.
"So, I am trying to find a way to deduct Zhang Hao's money. In 200 years, I will first fine 160,000 taels. For other money, I will find a way to find other ways! It would be best if I fine him until the remaining 200,000 taels!" Jiajing sighed and said.
"Yes, the emperor, but, if Zhang Hao thinks of this, he will feel that he has suffered a big loss. It will be a bad thing to make a fuss at that time!" Lu Fang reminded Jiajing and said.
"I have told Zhang Rong about this matter. He said it's okay. Just let the British Duke's wife come forward at that time. Zhang Hao is afraid of his mother!" Jiajing waved his hand and said. Lu Fang nodded when he heard this. This was indeed a bit too cruel.
"Yes, then I'll write it? Let's write it now?" Lu Fang looked at Jiajing and asked.
