I defeated Emperor Chongzhen at the beginning!

Chapter 13 What orders does His Majesty have?
Inside the Qianqing Palace.

Zhu Dadian knelt motionless on the icy ground, feeling uneasy and trembling all over, not even daring to breathe!
After all, this person has just been rectified for corruption.

With so many corrupt officials in the imperial city, he was the only one who survived after being found out, how lucky he was.

"Do you know what I mean by announcing you here?"

Zhu Youjian is not in a hurry. Although this person has the ability to level the roof and civil strife, he is a person who values ​​money and power after all. He needs to make sure whether this person can really be used by him.

Zhu Dadian became even more nervous when he heard it, his head was lowered to the floor, and his voice even trembled a little.

"I...I don't know."

"Dongyang County."

"Ok?"

He looked up at Zhu Youjian who was sitting in the upper seat in puzzlement and doubt.

"Recently, there has been an uprising in Dongyang County. Since you still have some talent, how about I give you a chance to atone for your sins?"

Zhu Youjian has made it very clear, if Zhu Dadian still doesn't know what Zhu Youjian means at this time, then he has misjudged the person.

"Your Majesty wants the minister to suppress the rebel army?"

Having said this, Zhu Dadian's eyes lit up.

For a long time, he has been very displeased with these wanton rebels in the country, and he has really thought about how to wipe out all these rebels!
However, his previous official position was not too high, and there were few people in the court who took care of this matter. In order to protect himself, Zhu Dadian never mentioned his views on the rebel army.

Unexpectedly, this time, His Majesty the Emperor would entrust this matter to him.

Isn't this just what he wanted?

Although he said he was a bit greedy for money, he was indeed a patriotic person, and he absolutely didn't want Daming to be annihilated by the rebel army like this.

"The minister obeys the order!"

【Ding!The system prompts that Zhu Dadian's loyalty has soared, and you have obtained the achievement of "Turning the Universe"! 】

Zhu Youjian narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Zhu Dadian who was kneeling in front of him.

95!

This guy's loyalty is actually 95, he is really right!
……

Dongyang County.

The terrain here is flat and wide, and it is one of the largest plains south of Daming.

It is precisely because of this that the confrontation between the rebel army and the army will be unprecedentedly fierce, because this place cannot fight roundabout battles at all, and every time they encounter it, it will be a head-on confrontation!
The population here is sparse, but there are many businessmen coming and going, and this place is very rich.

Inside the government office of Dongyang County.

The county magistrate looked at the man sent by the imperial city flatteringly.

Although Zhu Dadian had just been demoted, and they were all aware of the news of the clearance of corrupt officials in the imperial city, this person was the only one left behind during the clearance operation.

The magistrate felt that he should still show [-]% respect.

"Master Zhu, do you think this hospitality is suitable?"

Since the county magistrate knew that this person was sanctioned in the clearance operation, he knew that corrupt officials just liked those vulgar things.

The minion standing behind the magistrate received the hint in his eyes, and quickly opened the box he brought.

There is nothing else inside, only real gold and silver that shine brightly.

Zhu Dadian was stunned for a moment, and then subconsciously wanted to touch these silver taels.

The nonsense that a gentleman loves money and gets it in a proper way doesn't work here at Zhu Dadian.

In other words, this sentence would never have worked for Zhu Dadian in the past.

But now it is different.

"When did I ask you to prepare these things! I won't accept them!"

Zhu Dadian resisted the urge to touch these jewels, gold and silver, and quickly turned around and sat back on the main seat.

This time he knew what he was here for, so he naturally wanted to deal with the rebel army first and give the emperor an explanation.

Zhixian could only shrink his neck and let his men carry all the jewels away.

"My lord, you are so young and ignorant! I wonder what step you want to take first when you are here?"

"Where do you have the best information?"

"In the words of your lord, Rising Restaurant."

……

Inside Rising Restaurant.

The decoration here is extremely luxurious, even a person like Zhu Dadian, who is used to wine and meat, finds it inconceivably luxurious.

In such a place, just ordering a pot of small wine can make ordinary people buy a small official.

"Since there is no shortage of money in this place, how can the rebels incite the people to revolt?"

"My lord doesn't know. The people you see in this place are naturally not short of money, but these people are only a minority after all. Most of them can't even solve the problem of eating."

"Oh? I'd like to hear about it."

Zhu Dadian took a sip of wine while talking.

"There has been a drought here for nearly three years. Although it is a plain, it is precisely because of this that when the wind and sand come, it is impossible to avoid it. The lives of the people are miserable. No, once there is an uprising The army came to stir people's hearts, and this person followed the rebel army and left."

"So that's the case. Doesn't the court have special relief food every year? Didn't you receive it?"

"Returning to my lord, the imperial court is afraid that the national treasury has been empty in the past few years, and the relief food given to us is not as good as every year. This is why the rebel army dares to be so rampant now. If it weren't for this time, our Majesty wiped out corrupt officials and used all their money. To fill the national treasury, I am afraid that it will be..."

Speaking of this, the county magistrate was stunned, and then realized that he had said something wrong, and quickly added: "Bah, bah, bah, this is not a good mouth, Master Zhu, please don't mind."

"That's it."

Zhu Dadian waved his hand.

Since he came to suppress the rebel army this time, it would be a good thing for him to hear some truth from the county magistrate, so how could he blame him?
"Then the court's food hasn't arrived yet?"

Zhu Dadian pulled away the chair next to him, motioning for the standing people to sit beside him.

"It hasn't been delivered yet."

"Okay, I understand."

While speaking, Zhu Dadian called his attendants to take out a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, on which he quickly wrote down what he saw with his own eyes, and made a detailed analysis of the situation in Dongyang County.

"Hurry up and go to the imperial city to tell His Majesty the news."

……

Inside the Royal Garden.

"Okay! Very good! Sure enough, I saw the right person! Zhu Dadian is indeed someone who can be reused."

Hong Chengchou was standing aside, listening attentively to Zhu Youjian's praise of Zhu Dadian.

"I don't know why His Majesty is so happy?"

"Come on, come and have a look."

Zhu Youjian waved to Hong Chengchou, motioning him to come over and read the letter Zhu Dadian sent to him.

"This Zhu Dadian explained the situation in Dongyang County in detail in the letter, and he analyzed it in an orderly manner. You should do as he said in the letter. First, send a part of the Royal Forest Army and Jinyiwei's horses to deliver some disaster relief food to Dongyang County. Then Go and find out who in the capital was in charge of the disaster relief food in Dongyang County, and then see if there is any place in the same situation as Dongyang County."

"Yes!"

After Hong Chengchou responded, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Zhu Youjian.

"You wait first."

"What orders does Your Majesty have?"

"In addition, you can send some people to keep an eye on Zhu Dadian secretly to see how this guy got this information and whether he accepted any benefits from the local magistrate!"

After all, this person's history is not clean, and Zhu Youjian is worried that Zhu Dadian will get into trouble because of this.

"Your Majesty, are you worried..."

"Yes! Although this person has some talents, he can't be completely trusted."

No matter how the official history brags about Zhu Dadian's talent, Zhu Youjian still believes in the unofficial history he has read, and he feels that he should leave a way out.

Zhu Dadian, if you keep yourself safe, I will protect your prosperity and wealth.

If you do not change your nature, you will become greedy.

Don't blame me for being ruthless!
