historical royal courier

Chapter 151
"Yo, not bad, not bad, Mr. Wang embezzled 400 taels of official silver for the first time when he became an official. He is very courageous and has a great future. It seems that he is also very capable to be the chief assistant of the court."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked up at Wang Jiaping, who had been beaten and was in a daze.

"Oh, Mr. Wang seems to be unable to answer, so let's forget it, let me pronounce the sentence directly. According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, what is the crime of embezzling three thousand and four hundred taels of official silver?"

After taking a sip of tea, Lao Zhu waited for Wang Bin, the commander of the Jinyiwei who had been promoted to the number one dog leg, to reply.

"Let's take a look, sir."

Jin Yiwei Wang Bin was holding a thick book of laws from the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, and was searching quickly.

Yes, from the Hongwu period, I don't know where this guy came from.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that future generations should not modify the "Da Ming Code" when he formulated it, there are some additions to it, which means there are other ways to avoid severe punishment for crimes. Therefore, only by digging out the original version of the "Da Ming Code" can Zhu Yuanzhang make more changes. satisfy.

Seeing this law, all the civil and military officials kneeling below were all terrified.

No way, the laws of the Hongwu Dynasty were notoriously strict. If it was based on the above, there would be no need to investigate. Wang Jiaping would be dead, but the method of death was different.

"Your Majesty, I have found out that you have stipulated in the "Law of the Ming Dynasty" that officials who are corrupt and pervert the law: guarding themselves and stealing, 40 guan; When the law comes, Lord Wang should be sentenced to death."

After reading out the original text of the regulations, Wang Bin, the commander of the Jin Yiwei, smiled ferociously at the unconscious Wang Jiaping. As the chief minister of the dynasty, his Jin Yiwei had never killed such a big official.

"Okay, write it down with a note, carry him to the left, and execute it together later."

"Yes."

Next, the officials whose names were read were all terrified. They didn't know what crime Lao Zhu would judge him, while those who knew that they must be sentenced to death showed various appearances, pretending to be crazy, begging for mercy on their knees , yelling, and keeping silent, it really put on a big drama of life in this square!
"Get out of the way, let me get out of the way, I have heard Lord Niu's voice just now, Lord Niu and the others have been following Lord Shoufu Wang, so Lord Shoufu Wang must also be inside, you give way to me Come on, I want to see Lord Shoufu Wang!"

Hearing the noise outside, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the gate of the imperial city in surprise, no way, someone came here by himself now?
"You go and see what's going on over there, and then bring them all in."

"Yes."

The commander of the Jin Yiwei ran towards the entrance of the imperial city excitedly, hahaha, the group of people below did a really good job this time, and they were able to coax a group of people here now.

"Hey, Commander of Jinyiwei Wang Bin, why are you here, what about Mr. Wang and the others?"

Seeing Wang Bin, the Commander of the Jinyi Guard, who appeared in front of him, the group of later civil servants were a little puzzled. Could it be that Wang Bin also hugged the thigh of Chief Assistant Wang, and now he is with himself and others?

"I, I thought I came here to pick up your lords. Lord Wang is waiting for your lords on the square of the palace right now. My lords, please come with me."

Pointing to the inside of the imperial city with a smile, Wang Bin put on a gesture of invitation.

"Master Wang is waiting for us. Oh, what a sin. How can we let Master Chief Assistant wait for us? Everyone, hurry up and get there."

A group of people entered the imperial city excitedly, and immediately knew something was wrong when they saw the scene on the square.

An old man was sitting high above, while Wang Shoufu, whom they admired, was being escorted to the side like a dead dog.

"This. Your Majesty, I am late to rescue you. I hope your Majesty will forgive you. I heard the news about Wang Jiaping breaking into the imperial city without permission, and immediately brought people to rescue him. I didn't expect that Your Majesty Hongfu actually solved it himself. , Your Majesty is truly wise and mighty, and he is a holy king in this world!"

Damn it, this reaction must be at the level of a great god!
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Yi both looked at this guy kneeling on the ground in bewilderment. Could it be that this guy is really a loyal minister who came to rescue him?
"Hey, Mr. Xu, that's not what you said outside the imperial city just now. Didn't you say that you came to see Wang's chief assistant? No, the chief assistant is kneeling there and waiting for you."

Ignoring Xu Cheng's murderous look, Wang Bin came to Lao Zhu charmingly and told Xu Cheng all the information and purpose of his visit.

"Dang, it turned out that they were also here to knock on the door, but they arrived a little late. They really almost deceived me. I gave them a good beating first, and then threw them into the crowd. Judgment.”

"Yes."

"Old Zhu, it's been a day, aren't you tired?"

Rubbing his hazy eyes, Li Yi yawned big. The nap just now was really comfortable, and he slept until evening.

"I'm not tired, I don't get tired after a day and a night to clean up the moths in these countries."

Let the people below light the torches, Zhu Yuanzhang plans to work overtime to finish the interrogation of the remaining [-] or so people. By the way, these [-] or so people are the group of stupid geese who just ran in by themselves.

"Okay, forget that you are a workaholic. Then you take your time and play. I can't handle it anymore. I will come to pick you up tomorrow."

Li Yi doesn't plan to stay here anymore. Maybe this job is very interesting for Lao Zhu, but for Li Yi, it's too boring. If he has the spare time to watch Lao Zhu judge the case here, he might as well go back and fight a few games. The game I haven't seen for a long time, playing games is better than this!

"Tomorrow? Forget it, you don't want to come here tomorrow. Although these civil servants are all moths and trash, they are right in saying something. If such a big incident happened in the court, there must be someone in the local government. Rebellion, I'd better stay here and clean up the remnants of Daming, this may take a long time."

"To clean up the remnants, do I need to send some other emperors to help you? They are here"

"Need not!"

Before Li Yi finished speaking, Old Zhu immediately interrupted.

"I will not ask them to shave my old Zhu's skin, especially that guy Li Shimin, who still owes me money. Just keep hitting him!"

Well, I was indeed negligent. With Lao Zhu's stingy temper, he is the only one who earns other people's money, so how could he let others come to him to make money.

"Okay, then you go here and play slowly, I will go back now to see if there is anything wrong, and then I will go find the new emperor."

"Go ahead, go ahead, but if you meet one of my descendants, Lao Zhu, remember to tell me. I want to see if it is the unfilial descendant who gets beaten this time!"

Lao Zhu has been a little angry recently, maybe because of the hot weather, but Lao Zhu can't blame or beat God because of this, he has no choice but to vent his anger on you unfilial children and grandchildren.

"Okay, if I encounter you, I will come over and notify you as soon as possible."

Li Yi waved his hand, and the already very skilled little eunuch first gave a long low-pitched "Qi", and then raised his voice to a resounding "Fight".

Yes, this is more face-saving!
