I am the king of the dead

This is not the case with King Zheng. There are three long histories that King Zheng directly killed, and countless servants were killed.

The head of the palace, Shi, is an official appointed by the imperial court. King Zheng dared to kill him, but how violent he is.

Until Zhou Ying, who was more ruthless than him, came to his house to be a long history, Zheng Wang was not as ruthless as Zhou Ying, so he restrained his temper.

Especially in the Jingtai period, King Zheng was very obedient.

Zhou Ying once told Zhu Zhanyu very calmly with a cold face that if he killed his subordinates during the Jingtai period, His Majesty would stop enshrining the palace and let the clan's family remove his clan's name.

It was worse than killing him.

What Zhou Ying said was a fact, not a hypothesis, because since His Majesty ascended the throne, one emperor, three princes, and two captains-in-law have been killed. Except for the Empress Dowager Sun, all families of Sun Zhong and Sun Jizong have been executed in the Huichang House.

This is because the Empress Dowager Sun chose sides quickly, otherwise Zhu Zhanxi didn't think it was unusual for the Empress Dowager to die suddenly.

Zhu Zhanxun almost jumped up when he left Juxian Pavilion. He was neither capable of supervising the country, nor did he dare to supervise the country. He was naturally very excited when he got rid of this job overnight.

And the wise and mighty His Majesty finally retracted his illusion.

Zhu Zhanqian is the king of the most virtuous, but he is the emperor's uncle with two miraculous merit cards, and the two emperors Zhu Jianji and Zhu Jianshen also have little talent and have a degree of handling, which makes the emperor of Ming Dynasty have a kind of great The clan is not an illusion of waste.

Zhu Zhanqian and Zhu Jianshen were the ones who made their own mark in the long river of history, and Zhu Jianji was a surprise.

After Zheng Wang Zhu Zhanyu's incident, the Emperor Ming finally took back the illusion that the Ming clan just lacked a stage and was not a waste. Ninety-nine percent of the Ming clan really did not serve dog meat on the table, and mud did not go on the wall.

Zhu Zhanxi was quite happy, his whole body was a little happy, he turned his head and said: "Zhou Changshi, after returning, I will go to Jiaofang to bring Miss Sisi to the house until your majesty leaves Beijing... No, Until His Majesty returns to the capital, don't open the gate of the palace, and thank guests behind closed doors."

"I want to enjoy myself in time."

Zhu Zhanyu returned to the palace and flicked his boots, rubbed his hands and said expectantly, he was the best at eating, drinking and having fun, and governing the country, he didn't have that muscle.

Zhou Ying put Zhu Zhanxi's shoes away, just like she did every time for 13 years.

He stood at the door, staring blankly at Zhu Zhanxi's back. He has been in the palace for nearly 13 years. Finally, I have some human appearance.

If it is boiled eagle, this is finally boiled out.

Zhu Zhanxuan is a prince, not a beast. It is very difficult to boil such an eagle.

"Your Highness, do you remember what I said?" Zhou Ying stood at the door and said with some embarrassment.

He will bid farewell to the palace today.

Zhu Zhanyu turned his head, looked at Zhou Ying and asked a little strangely: "You have said so much, how can Gu know which sentence it is?"

Zhou Ying was a very cold person, and he said in a rather cold voice: "Don't commit crimes, you are the most honorable prince of Ming Dynasty, and you can enjoy the glory and wealth."

If it was 13 years ago, Zhu Zhanxi would have been furious with the teacher-like tone of Chang Shi in the mansion, but at this moment Zhu Zhanxi nodded solemnly and said, "I remember."

Zhu Zhanxi seemed to realize something, took a few steps back, pulled Zhou Ying and said excitedly: "Let's go. I have been looking for a famous national player recently. Aren't you the best at talking? Talk to this national player The two rounds opened Gu Ye's eyes."

"Just remember." Zhou Ying breathed a sigh of relief, stood still and continued, "Ji Shengxia hangs up an anti-corruption department, has your Highness heard about it? Chief Procuratorate He Zhang asked ministers to serve as ambassadors of the anti-corruption department .”

Zhu Zhanxi's face instantly turned into a big dye vat. If Zhou Ying hadn't watched him all these years, he would have died [-] times long ago.

Take the last Nanya rebellion as an example, it’s not that no one contacted Prince Zheng’s mansion, Zhu Zhanxi was quite tempted to go, if Zhou Ying’s waist sword hadn’t been placed on Zhu Zhanxi’s neck, he would have gone, and later Yes, it turns out, His Majesty won.

"The anti-corruption department is exhausted, how can the palace be comfortable?" Zhu Zhanxi naturally didn't want Zhou Ying to leave the palace.

Zhou Ying is a very deserted person, with no superfluous expressions, only persistence on his face.

Zhu Zhanxi could only give up, he pretended to be relaxed and said loudly: "Go outside, report me the name of Prince Zheng's Mansion! I will cover you alone!"

Zhou Ying's face of a cruel official gave a rare smile, and calling him the name of King Zheng was not as deterrent as calling him Zhou Ying's name. Who doesn't know that he is a ruthless person?

"Thank you for your love, my lord, and I'm leaving." Zhou Ying saluted, said that His Highness is well, and walked out of Prince Zheng's mansion without saying a word.

Miss Sisi was taken to the palace soon, and Zhu Zhanxi sat in front of the gate of the palace, without even looking at it, holding a whip in his hand, and just sat there without speaking for a whole day.

Zhu Zhanxi even thought about whipping people with the horsewhip in his hand a few times, and Zhou Ying would come back to take care of him after making a fuss.

It was not until dusk that Zhu Zhanyu finally gave up his plan to make trouble and went back to the mansion. He knew that making trouble was useless. The long history who had been in charge of him for 13 years was gone. In the future, the whole palace will depend on him, King Zheng. up.

The Anti-Corruption Office was established by Wang Ao, the left servant of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, under the name of the Ministry of Finance. This supervision task should have been under the name of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but Wang Ao considered the consistent performance of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. , and finally put the Anti-Corruption Office under the name of Ji Sheng.

He Zhang wanted Zhou Ying to become an official, hoping that Zhou Ying could climb high enough in the Anti-Corruption Office, and finally re-affiliate the Anti-Corruption Office under the name of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

After Zhou Ying left, he headed towards the Ministry of Officials. He was one of the people introduced by the Metropolitan Procuratorate to the Anti-Corruption Office.

As soon as Zhou Ying was transferred to the Anti-Corruption Department, she fell into the endless busyness. When she was busy, Zhou Ying went to Prince Zheng's mansion to give a lot of advice to the new Chang Shi, and asked about the situation of King Zheng before leaving.

The first major case of the Anti-Corruption Office was the case of the Shanxi Xingdu Division's counterfeit aid.

His Majesty's reply to the case of counterfeit relief has only one sentence; [Don't condone and raise traitors because the punishment is not as good as the public].

The Anti-Corruption Office was extremely busy because of the counterfeiting case.

And Zhou Ying noticed a detail, that is, Chen Zuhui, the former governor of Shaanxi Xingdu and the current governor of Zhejiang, is likely to be the instigator of the counterfeiting case.

The current situation of the entire Shaanxi Xingdu Division and all clues point to Chen Zuhui.

After repeated inspections, Zhou Ying confirmed her guess, found Wang Ao, and told Wang Ao the clues she had found.

Wang Ao flipped through the title book in his hand, the more he looked at it, the more frightened he became. After reading it for a long time, he said, "You mean, the counterfeit relief case is related to the plague that killed [-] people in Changde, Zhenjiang, and Songjiang?"

Once a plague breaks out, the imperial court will inevitably appease it. This is the imperial court's obligation.

During the previous court meeting, Shen Yi, who was not leaking money, changed his normal behavior and was quite generous, but he asked the military control to distribute the money, and asked how much of the money would go to the common people if the money was paid out of the country!

Shen Yi is the inspector censor who inspects the local area. For nine years, all the major plans of the Beijing inspection have been evaluated and entered the capital. Regarding those tricky people in the local area, Shen Yi once made a summary for the local officials: [Officials protect, raise the court All the same].

Zhou Ying nodded and said, "I thought the two cases could be investigated together."

"Songjiang Prefecture collects and distributes goods from all over the world, and there are a lot of people coming and going. Once the plague spreads, the world will boil, so don't be careless."

Wang Ao stood up abruptly, and said impatiently: "It makes sense, I'm going to see His Majesty right now, you come with me."

After Zhu Qiyu read the memorial of the Anti-Corruption Office, he took a deep breath and said sharply: "This matter has been corrupted for a long time. All the officials in the province, big and small, have been involved in the crime. The two cases will be investigated together, and we will never tolerate it!"

"Your Majesty, wait for the order!" Wang Ao and Zhou Ying left Juxian Pavilion, what they wanted was His Majesty's unforgiving words.

Once this impostor case and the plague of the Three Houses were involved, it would definitely be a shocking case, and it would not be surprising if anyone was found out.

After the two left, Zhu Qiyu kept rubbing the center of his brows. He thought that the plague of the three prefectures was just a crime of negligence in collusion between the officials of the three prefectures and the local gentry. Now it seems that there is more filth in it than Zhu Qiyu thought. much.

The number one scholar Lang Keqian who reported and exposed the counterfeiting case was threatened with his life.

Ke Qian was originally a military student, and his mind was extremely meticulous. He escaped interception, poisoning, frame-up and other things many times, and he wrote a memorial.

Ke Qian thought that His Majesty should make plans early for his majesty's western expansion plan, such as changing the capital of Shaanxi to Gansu and the jurisdiction of the Hexi Corridor, and then setting up the capital of the Western Regions, so that the capital of Shaanxi can enjoy long-term stability.

Zhu Qiyu accepts good words, but this is a big matter, and careful preparations are still needed. When the dust of the counterfeit relief case is settled, the reform can be carried out without hindrance.

At this time, Songjiang Governor Li Binyan, who was under the local military control of Songjiang Mansion, was even more sad.

After receiving the edict, he immediately ordered the inspection department to block the mouth of the Yangtze River, and prohibited ships from berthing at Songjiang Mansion and the Shipping Department of Ningbo City. Afterwards, the army began to block Songjiang Mansion.

The roaring caravans and sails covering the sky and the sun in the past disappeared, and there were even rumors that His Majesty would abolish the Shipping Department of Songjiang Prefecture, causing panic for a while.

When the epidemic has reached its end, the spread that Wang Ao and Zhou Ying worried about will not occur.

"Governor Li doesn't have to worry about it. I will do my best to prevent the plague from dissipating." Fan Du commanded Ma Yun to say quite confidently.

The epidemic in the three prefectures these days has reached the time when the door can be opened, but based on the premise of being cautious and keeping the official title, it is still decided to close the city for more than a month.

Li Binyan frowned, he was not very worried about the epidemic.

In fact, the season of the epidemic has passed, and temporarily closing the doors for half a month is enough to completely subside the epidemic.

His Majesty wanted him and Li Xian's head to thank the world, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.

"Da Ming is going to switch from Xia Xu to Autumn Xu." Li Binyan seemed to be speaking to Fan Du, more like talking to himself.

That's what worries him.

The Preface to the Four Seasons was the first one proposed by Li Binyan, and the four seasons of law are also one of the cultures of the Central Plains Dynasty, such as asking after autumn.

Daming is about to enter the autumn sequence, which is also a pessimistic expectation of Li Binyan.

Ming's new monetary policy is facing the most serious challenge.

The shortage of money and the rapid development of commercial activities formed a huge conflict. The transformation process from the small peasant economy to the commodity economy needs to go through pains.

Frequent business activities have led to a worse shortage of money, making things worse.

According to the conclusion of the Daming Salt and Iron Conference, Tianxia Department Stores should gradually increase their prices with the implementation of Daming’s new monetary policy.

Based on the calculation of 40 copper coins per person per year in the Ming Dynasty, the Ming Dynasty should issue 90 billion copper coins each year, but the new coins issued by His Majesty’s imperial silver coins and Jingtai Tongbao have already exceeded [-] billion copper coins each year, which is the basis for the inflation of department stores.

There is more money and less goods, and the supply is less than the demand, which leads to inflation.

However, Li Binyan keenly discovered that the prices of Songjiangfu Shiboshi, which distributes department stores all over the world, have not risen for three years, but have dropped a little.

During the visit, Li Binyan also found that Yanyin and Xiaoyanyin have once again become a kind of currency, and many small workshops are closing because of money shortage.

The shortage of money has caused a series of triangular debt problems, and the liquidity of currency is also gradually decreasing.

The Beijing army is strong, the morale of the frontier guards is low and the armaments are slack, and the most urgent thing is the recovery speed of the Daming Navy, which cannot keep up with the development speed of the Daming Maritime Trade.

In the past two years, in Guangzhou, Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places in the Ming Dynasty, a large number of bodyguard bureaus appeared one after another, and these bodyguard bureaus did not use land bodyguards, but only sea bodyguards.

On the ships of the Escort, there is no trace of commercial goods, they are all armaments. Once encountering pirates at sea, the Escort ships will fight.

And the conflicts between the various bodyguard bureaus are becoming more and more intense, and there are fights from time to time.

The emergence of a large number of escort agencies means that the Daming Navy is not enough at all.

Under the high pressure of the examination, the officials, who were already complaining, began to look for leverage to collude with the local gentry, and the deepening of the anti-corruption campaign, such as the news that the families of civil and military officials were not allowed to do business, caused an uproar.

What worries Li Binyan the most is the problem that the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty has always been worried about.

Especially in the latest rush to buy, for a Gao Liji, the two families fighting for wealth, like fighting spirit, held Gao Liji to a high price of [-] silver coins.

Pursuing extravagance, competing for extravagance, and fighting for wealth, Li Binyan often thinks of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, which were neither romantic nor beautiful, and chopped up women into soup and served them on the dining table.

The omens of the economy, military, politics, culture, etc. all indicate that Ming Dynasty is about to usher in a comprehensive test, which is the Winter Preface.

Winter is coming.

Li Binyan couldn't predict how long Daming's winter sequence would last, how much impact it would cause, and whether Daming would be able to survive this winter sequence. That's why he was so worried.

Fandu commanded Ma Yun to think that Li Binyan was worried about being reprimanded by His Majesty for the epidemic. In fact, Li Binyan thought more long-term.

Chapter 619 Speculation, Who's Stupider Game

During this period of time, Li Binyan had a very bad time. Although he looked up at the starry sky and cherished the universe, he never left the ground and always did things down-to-earth. In his hands, Songjiang Mansion gradually changed from a small fishing village to what it is today. prosperous look.

"Your Majesty's order, are you okay?" Fan Du commanded Ma Yun to ask Li Binyan in a low voice, looking at Li Binyan, who looked downcast and lacking in interest.

Li Binyan scratched his head when he heard this sentence. As a hardcore imperialist, since he left the capital, he has been favored by the emperor. His Majesty has rewarded him constantly. In the whole world, how can there be another person who can wear the Yongle Sword?

Even Tianzi Tiqi returned to Beijing after finishing his errands and returned the Yongle Sword.

His Majesty never intends to take back Li Binyan's Yongle Sword.

The emperor's grace is mighty, nothing more than this.

"It's nothing, it's Li who is not doing his job well." Li Binyan rubbed his brows vigorously and replied, Li Binyan knew that he had owed the Holy Grace, and His Majesty trusted him so much, but he messed up the errand.

"Is Chen Zuhui, governor of Zhejiang, here?" Li Binyan sat up straight. He didn't leave the government office today, but he was waiting for someone, waiting for Chen Zuhui's arrival.

Thousands of seemingly irrelevant clues finally pointed to Chen Zuhui, who was the former governor of Shaanxi Xingdu, the instigator of the counterfeit relief case, and most likely also the behind-the-scenes driving force of the plague in the three prefectures.

"Looking at the time, it should be here." Ma Yun said in a low voice.

Not long after, Chen Zuhui walked into the Songjiang government office with a group of people. They greeted each other with smiles on their faces, bowed their heads and said, "Governor Li, the capital was farewell back then, and it has been twelve years now. Don't come here without any problems."

Li Bin said calmly, "Governor Chen is very polite, sit down."

In terms of official rank, Li Binyan and Chen Zuhui are of the same rank, and Li Binyan has the emperor's family, which is why Chen Zuhui is so polite.

"I still remember that when the white horse galloped on the flying swallows, Governor Li's demeanor remained the same." Chen Zuhui looked at Li Binyan's appearance with a smile on his face.

Chen Zuhui and Li Binyan have classmates and fellowship. In the Imperial Academy, the two were taught by the same school and worshiped under the same teacher. After that, they were awarded Jinshi and rank together. After the teacher appreciation banquet, they traveled together on the same list.

Li Binyan took a sip of his tea, with a three-point smile, as if recalling the time back then, he said with a smile: "Miss Zhou's family was married and a woman now, when the time came, neither of us got anything."

"Hahaha!" Chen Zuhui was taken aback after hearing this, and then laughed out loud. The sense of alienation from reunion after a long absence disappeared in an instant.

At that time, the two of them were bullies for a period of time because of Miss Zhou's family, but later they were both released from Beijing to serve as officials. Miss Jia is married.

When Li Binyan was in the capital, he was very dull, even a bit straightforward, but since he left Beijing to be governor of Shandong, Li Binyan has become very tactful.

In a few words, the two reminiscing about the old days, flattering each other, and the atmosphere became warmer. Those who knew the two hadn't met and contacted each other for 12 years, and those who didn't know thought it was a chat between close friends.

Li Binyan waved his hand and signaled others to step back, as if he wanted to catch up with Chen Zuhui.
