I am the king of the dead

As soon as this question came up, even Wang Ao glanced at Lu Zhong. Obviously this was not a predetermined question, but Lu Zhong's addition.

But judging from the paper and handwriting of the title book, it came from the Tai'an Palace. This is a question that His Majesty wants to know.

When asked about this, Lu Zhong ordered the document to stop recording, but recorded it himself.

"Yes, he knows everything." Zhang Feng said with some regret.

"Know?" Lu Zhong and Wang Ao raised their heads abruptly, and looked at Zhang Feng in shock. Jin Lian was so clear about Zhang Feng's corruption?

At this point, Zhang Feng had nothing to say, he knew that it was something the emperor wanted to know.

He said confidently: "Jin Shangshu once checked the accounts of the state treasury for 14 years. Who can escape his eyes? Wang Zhi once said that the only person who can manage money is Jin Lian. He checked the accounts of the state treasury and found out naturally. The hands and feet I did back then."

"Since checking the accounts, Jin Shangshu's attitude towards me has become extremely violent, and he always reprimanded me angrily. To be honest, this made me very embarrassing in the household department."

Lu Zhong recorded Zhang Feng's words word by word, and asked: "Since Jin Shangshu knows that you are corrupt, why does he still recommend you as the Minister of the Household Department?"

"Because I stopped, do you know the Three Treasures of Fulu?"

"Taking an evil path is like liking the Three Treasures of Fortune. Who can quit?"

"After 14 years since I was orthodox, I have never extended my hand again. This is why Jin Shangshu recommended me."

"He thought of everything, but he didn't expect that I would be so stupid."

Lu Zhong and Wang Ao looked at each other before continuing to ask: "Tell me in detail."

Zhang Feng pondered for a moment before saying: "In the prison for the past few days, I thought about it seriously. I really admire Jin Shangshu. He actually guessed that I would take revenge on him."

"But he had no idea that I would do it so early."

"If I wait until I become the Minister of the Household Department, and then start to take revenge on him slowly, it will be fine, because I am the Minister of the Household Department alive, and he is the Minister of the Household Department who passed away."

"Even if your Majesty knows, you have to think about it, because Jin Shangshu has already left."

"But Jin Shangshu probably didn't expect that I would start doing these things before I took office."

"I'm... so stupid."

Zhang Feng is really obsessed with the position of Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs. He has been on the rise since the orthodox three years, and has been promoted to the sixth rank. He is still the third rank, and he really wants to be in the position.

All these things, he has done a little too hastily.

Until now, Zhang Feng is still in his own mind, he has no idea that His Majesty always addresses Jin Lian as Uncle Mu Yang.

"I thought Jin Shangshu was in the same boat as you, so I recommended you." Lu Zhong seemed to say casually.

"Nonsense!" Zhang Feng slapped the table with shackles, and said angrily: "You are His Majesty's Tiqi, how can you frame other people's innocence for nothing!"

"Remember, remember it for me!" Zhang Feng said angrily following the clerk.

The clerk was unmoved, Zhang Feng looked at Wang Ao again and said loudly: "Wang Ao, you are an official of the imperial court, and you just watch these hawks and dogs, can you pour dirty water?"

Wang Ao glanced at one of Lu Zhong's title books, the words Lu Zhong just said were obviously not what was written in His Majesty's title book, but what Lu Zhong himself wanted to say.

Lu Zhong wrote it down stroke by stroke.

Lu Zhong investigated the case, that's it, he would doubt anyone.

Wang Ao couldn't say much, after all, Lu Zhong was only responsible to His Majesty.

A playful smile appeared on the corner of Lu Zhong's mouth and said: "Okay, that's it for today, you can read the statement, if there is no problem, just sign it and make a deposit."

Zhang Feng was relieved when he saw that Lu Zhong wrote it word for word, and signed his signature.

Lu Zhong stood up and ended the interrogation.

Achieve a lot.

"Captain Lu, you..." Wang Ao was handling a case with Tiqi for the first time, and he never expected that Tiqi would handle a case in such a style.

Does Lu Zhong doubt even someone like Jin Shangshu?

Lu Zhong stopped and said in a low voice: "During the battle of the capital, I sent Tiqi to follow Yu Shaobao, and Yu Shaobao returned to the capital on patrol. When the capital was listening to Jingzhong Jing, I found my people , and asked my people to pay."

After Lu Zhong spoke, he headed towards Tai'an Palace.

Zhu Qiyu got the certificate written by Lu Zhonghe and looked at it for a long time, then said: "Oh, Dudu Lu, there is no need for Uncle Mu Yang to doubt it."

Zhu Qiyu naturally discovered what Lu Zhong said.

"Doesn't this mean that Jin Shangshu is innocent?" Lu Zhong said instead.

Zhang Feng's reaction was too normal.

Jin Lian is a person who has dedicated his whole life to Daming. Even Zhang Feng, who is not a man, slaps the table when he hears that Lu Zhong framed Jin Lian's conduct.

It is conceivable that Lu Zhong's words were really too much, and it can also be seen that Jin Lian himself is clean.

This is what Lu Zhong asked for proof.

Your Majesty never trusts anyone wrong.

"Uncle Mu Yang, why would you recommend Zhang Feng even knowing that he is corrupt?" Zhu Qiyu looked at the content in the notebook and fell into deep thought.

Then he understood it all.

Zhang Feng knew he was afraid.

Zhang Feng has gone through everything, and being able to choose to stop is what Jin Lian values ​​most. Shen Yi has not gone through a similar test, which is Shen Yi's biggest disadvantage.

It is not necessary to be so capable to be the Minister of the Ministry of Households. The reason why Jin Lian recommended Zhang Feng is to be able to lie on the silver mountain without being moved.

It's a pity that Jin Lian gave Zhang Feng a chance, but Zhang Feng was useless.

It was Zhang Feng's mistake to act too hastily.

"Check it out again, let's... cut it off." Zhu Qiyu Zhu approved Lu Zhong's inscription, made a decision, drew a red circle, and wrote the word "cut."

He decided to kill Zhang Feng, and executed Zhang Feng through judicial procedures that were not punishable by justice.

It was a very clear instruction that it was not Lu Zhong who wanted to kill Zhang Feng, but Zhu Qiyu.

Zhu Qiyu stood up and said: "Working for me, even if I leave, I have to protect it. If I don't kill this phoenix today, tomorrow there will be Li Feng, Wang Feng, and my servants."

"This stupid thing!"

Zhang Feng's stupidity, he himself admitted, was too urgent.

"It's very clear, what does Zhang Feng want?" Zhu Qiyu asked.

If Zhang Feng cooperates so much, he must have something to ask for, if he lives, Zhu Qiyu will not spare his life.

"His family." Lu Zhong answered the question truthfully. Zhang Feng cared about his family, especially the three children.

Zhu Qiyu thought for a while and said, "Find a house in Xicheng District and settle down."

"Your Majesty obeys the order." Lu Zhong bowed to the leader and took the order. Zhang Feng had to pay the price for his stupidity and self-righteousness. When he came, only His Majesty could be trusted, and His Majesty was worthy of trust.

"According to Zhang Feng's confession, this Fuxiangrui Tea Shop should be dug carefully." Zhu Qiyu waved his hand, motioning for Lu Zhong to handle the case.

"Resignation." Lu Zhong left the Imperial Study Room of Tai'an Palace, and after checking the defenses of Tai'an Palace and Qingqingfang, he left Tai'an Palace and went to Jinyiwei Yamen.

Zhu Qiyu held a memorial in his hand, it was the memorial of Shen Yi, the newly appointed left servant of the household department.

Shen Yi's first fire when he took office was on the emperor's head.

"Uncle Mu Yang left, but Shen Bulou and Wang Qiren came!" Zhu Qiyu held the memorial in his hand.

Shen Bulou was naturally Shen Yi, Wang Qiren was naturally Wang Hu, the second general of the household department, Heng Ha, was the first to set fire to the emperor's purse.

Shen Yi asked the emperor to pay back the money.

The internal money owes some money to the national money, which was agreed at the beginning to be divided between the tax supervisors and the Baoyuan Bureau of each city's shipping department, and it was written in black and white.

However, according to the regulations of the Municipal Bureau of Commerce, four cents will be exempted from silver coins. The major municipal bureaus have a lot of silver in hand. However, according to the Ming Dynasty's gold and silver ban and the new currency policy, silver taels must be minted into silver coins before they can be used.

So the fifty-five percent given by Zhu Qiyu is the fifty-five percent directly given to the silver coins.

There will be a seigniorage of three cents of silver, and this seigniorage will all belong to Zhu Qiyu's internal money.

Now, Shen Yi, who put his hands together without any gaps, took the [-]-[-] agreement reached by Zhu Qiyu and Jin Lian to find the emperor, just two words: pay back the money.

The solution is very simple, release Zhang Feng from the prison, and fight Shen Yi, Zhu Qiyu will not have this trouble.

"Do you want Lin Xiu to quarrel with their household department again?" Xing'an also said with a embarrassed face.

In fact, Jin Lian has said this matter many times, but every time Zhu Qiyu sent Lin Xiu and Wang Hu to quarrel, this quarrel, there will be more important things.

Shen Yi really grasped the timing of burning the fire on the emperor's head very well.

Zhu Qiyu just appointed Shen Yi, if he doesn't give it, he doesn't support Shen Yi's work, if he supports Shen Yi's work, he will have to pay a large sum of money.

Jin Lian is right, this Shen Yi really loves money, but he is eager to pull it into his arms, even if he can't get it in his hands, he is satisfied to see it.

Chapter 558 The Big Trouble of 13 People

"Pay back the money." Zhu Qiyu finally decided to pay back the money.

For matters related to maritime trade, it is [-]-[-], including the seigniorage, which was agreed at the beginning.

Zhu Qiyu was able to renege on Jin Lian not because Jin Lian was easy to bully, but because Zhu Qiyu and Jin Lian had a tacit understanding.

This tacit understanding was established after the Battle of the Capital.

"Does Zhang Feng have the meritorious service reward card? Even the Qi Li card." Zhu Qiyu asked suddenly.

Although His Majesty never asked about Zhang Fenggong's awarding cards, it was because Zhu Qiyu knew that Zhang Feng didn't have the first merit card.

There are so many Qi Li cards awarded, His Majesty does not know the specific list of Qi Li cards, and Xing'an does not know the specific list.

But Xing'an checked.

"No." Xing'an shook his head and said, "If there is, I would have told His Majesty in advance."

When Wang Fu was in the Fengtian Palace, he talked back to His Majesty because he was fighting for the interests of the people. His Majesty was furious, but still forgave Wang Fu. Do something that violates the laws of the country.

If Zhang Feng had even one Qi Li card, Xing'an would tell His Majesty about it, but unfortunately Zhang Feng did not.

"Oh." Zhu Qiyu leaned on the rattan chair.

Zhang Feng lived up to Jin Lian's expectations of him.

He Zhang did not disappoint Hu Yan's expectations of him, and headed north on a snowy day.

The time of his mission coincided with the time when Yu Qian went to Beigukou Camp.

Yu Qian rarely invited He Zhang to go with him.

He Zhang didn't have a word with Yu Qian in private, and even in court, he didn't have much communication with Yu Qian, and the two of them were nodding acquaintances.

When He Zhang was invited to go with him, he was dumbfounded.

"Greetings to Yu Shaobao." He Zhang bowed his head somewhat cautiously.

Yu Qian's chariot is a chariot rewarded by the Qigong card. There are five horse-drawn chariots. This is in line with the etiquette.

For example, Zhu Qiyu's Dajia Yuren has eighteen horses, which is a multiple of six, and six horses for daily travel.

Yu Qian's car is five horses, and on the door of the car, there is a golden Qigong sign.

For a car of this size, the cabin is naturally huge. It is no problem to accommodate several people, and it is very stable without feeling too much bumps.

"Sit down, I just came to chat with you." Yu Qian asked He Zhang to sit down, and said with a smile: "He Zongxian, I'll get straight to the point. This time, Zongxian He should not worry about the future."

"This is some arrangement of His Majesty after you left Beijing."

Yu Qian handed over a copy of the question book, and he asked He Zhang to come to solve He Zhang's worries. If He Zhang unfortunately encounters disaster in Yibei, His Majesty has already arranged everything.

Including He Zhang's wife, children, and children, they will start well and end well, and they will never lose anything.

"In Daming, no one can touch the person His Majesty wants to protect." Yu Qian said confidently.

Yu Qianyou took the heavy package next to him and said: "Your Majesty sent someone to bring you some warm clothes. They are all furs obtained by Fan Dudu in Liaodong. When you arrive in Yibei, put them on. Don't get frostbite."

"Everyone on this trip has a share."

He Zhang tremblingly took the clothes, bit his lips and said, "Honor, thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

The matter of Zhu Qiyu sending clothes to the embassy, ​​I still remembered that Princess Ji Qian was crying and wanted to send clothes to King Jili who was in the north, so he made preparations.

These clothes are not worth much, but it is more than enough to buy people's hearts.

The clothes are all ready-made, and every year Zhu Qiyu will send and receive cold-proof clothes to Yebu who is running outside the Great Wall.

Yu Qian chatted with He Zhang for a few more words, and the two rushed to the Ming Army barracks in Beigukou.
