Dakui smiled in his heart when he heard this: "Since I love you, I will not incriminate you." Thinking of this, he pretended to be confused and asked: "I don't know what the crime is?"
Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "I wonder if you have any objections to what Wang Shenzheng has reported?"
Dakui thought for a while and said: "If I have the intention to be greedy for black money, I will not report it truthfully. When I checked the dirty silver, it was indeed only more than 100,000 taels. I hope the King of Wu will find out."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Get up, I can trust your character."
Dakui said: "Thank you, King Wu." Then he stood up and stood to one side with a bow.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and asked: "Then Zhang Aiqing, where did the more than two hundred thousand taels of silver go?" As he spoke, he still stared at the book in his hand, and his seemingly careless question was focused on the crux of the matter.
put.
Dakui didn't think what he thought at all and said: "I don't know that the chief culprit has been beheaded. Now I have a hard time to defend myself."
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said: "Right now, my Ming Dynasty is recharging its strength and has nearly one million troops stationed in the south of the Yangtze River. In the near future, we will raise our troops to the north, but who can defend this land south of the Yangtze River for me?" After saying this, he sighed deeply.
Dakui couldn't help asking: "There are many civil and military officials in the court, so why should King Wu worry about not having someone to choose?"
Zhu Yuanzhang put down his book, looked at Dakui intently and said: "After Master Meng from Shunyuan City came to the capital, he met me and presented me with something. It is precisely because of this thing that I opened my eyes today. You killed Shunyuan."
Liang Youcai, the governor who took office, seized a large amount of dirty silver, but 200,000 dirty silver was missing. Based on this, it is not an exaggeration for me to kill you."
As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up a folded flag on the table and threw it in front of Dakui and said: "This is what Shunyuan Prefect is presenting now. Take a look."
Dakui took the flag flag and slowly unfolded it to look at it. Before long, his eyes were full of tears. What kind of flag flag was this? It was a large piece of white cloth with thousands of words written on it, followed by many, many numbers.
Fingerprints that could not be passed. Although this piece of white cloth was not worth a penny, in Dakui's heart it was worth a thousand pieces of gold. This white cloth was actually a letter from all peoples.
Zhu Yuanzhang said slowly: "You know that Liang Youcai is Wang Fu's relative and a member of the party, and you also know that Wang Fu is a relative of the prince. Why do you want to act in spite of the disapproval of the world?"
Hearing this, Dakui held the Book of Wanmin in both hands and cried: "I have been entrusted by King Wu to patrol the south of the Yangtze River with important tasks. I deserve the trust of King Wu in my heart. Even if there are all kinds of difficulties, Zhang Dakui will always think of the people. Even if King Wu kills me today,
Zhang Dakui will not regret it. I just want the people of the world to be grateful for King Wu's kindness. I want the people of the world to know that King Wu's imperial envoys make decisions and plead for the people. What's more, I want the people of the world to know that King Wu regained the world.
For the benefit of the people. If you can do this, I will not hesitate to die!"
Good guy, this big hat almost suffocated Wu King Zhu Yuanzhang to death. As the saying goes: When you meet someone, you should not say anything about it, but don’t think everything about it. The truth of Dakui’s words is really hard to guess.
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he nodded and said: "Well, I did not misjudge the person, but you should not interfere too much with what Wang Fu did. Alas~~ This king is in trouble." After saying this, he put his hand on his forehead as if he was very embarrassed.
.
Dakui cupped his fists and bowed, saying: "I understand King Wu's painstaking efforts, and now I have received King Wu's order. Zhang Dakui will obey the king's order!" After saying that, he bowed deeply to the ground again.
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded and said: "Zhang Aiqing, as the political envoy to the south of the Yangtze River, must be aware that he has a heavy responsibility. Zhang Aiqing should not stay in the capital. When the weather gets warmer, Zhang Aiqing should go out for inspections. Whenever there is something similar to Shun Yuan
Liang Youcai's corrupt officials, Zhang Aiqing, who is below the third rank, can be killed first and then punished. If the people want to live and work in peace and contentment, we must first ensure the integrity of the officials! Okay, if there is nothing else, Zhang Aiqing, please retire."
Da Kui knelt down and bowed again, lying on the ground and choking with sobs: "I retire." After saying that, he stood up and reluctantly walked out of the palace door, turning back step by step. But he knew in his heart that seeing me idle at home all day long, he wanted to drive me out to work.
There's nothing you can do about it. Your hands are short when you take people, and your mouth is soft when you eat people. The good days are over.
When Da Kui returned to his residence, Master Feng saw him and hurriedly reported: "Sir, all the prefectures and prefectures who came to Beijing to report on their duties sent people to send their submissions, and there were also special people to send gifts. Now I keep them in front of you.
I’m in the hall. I wonder what your lord’s plans are?”
(ps: In ancient times, postings were sent during New Year greetings, and officials and families also used this to communicate with each other.)
Dakui said as he walked: "In my hometown, there is a custom of New Year greetings. Gifts are needed to pay New Year greetings to the elders. Since we are officials in the same dynasty, we still have to give this face. Accept them all! Hey, what have you given?"
Master Feng didn't dare to hide it, so he looked around before whispering: "Every submission is accompanied by a gift list, and there are many categories. I can't explain a sentence clearly."
After hearing this, Dakui said: "You can check them one by one, and then report them to me in detail!" After that, Dakui walked towards the front yard. After hearing this, Master Feng immediately recruited Xu Yuan, Dong Hu and Tian Feng.
Zhou Kai and the others went to the front hall.
Dakui heard the shouts of Yang Xiaohu and Pan Bu before he reached the backyard. Dakui was very satisfied. If the two adopted sons keep working hard like this, it won't take long for their martial arts to improve. If the middle of the first lunar month is a big competition, Dakui is really
I dare not say that Yang Xiaohu can win the championship, but if the competition is in May, there will be some time to prepare.
As soon as Dakui entered the yard, he saw Yang Xiaohu and Panbu practicing meticulously, while Meng Ge gave instructions to Panbu from time to time. When the three of them saw Dakui entering the yard, they all stood up and bowed their hands in greeting. Dakui smiled and said: "
You two continue to practice, Brother Meng, come with me."
Meng Ge accepted the order and then followed Da Kui to the atrium. Da Kui walked around and said: "Brother Meng has been in the market for a long time, so he must know something about blacksmithing. Although I was born in poverty, I am not good at making weapons. I would like to ask Brother Meng to take a walk today.
Go to the blacksmith shop and make weapons for you, Yang Xiaohu and Pan Bu."
After saying that, he led Meng Ge into the hall. (Zhang Mansion is divided into five halls, so there are five halls.) When they came to the hall, Dakui asked the maid to make tea, and then told Meng Ge in detail: "Xiaohu's weapons must be in accordance with my rules."
The iron gun is in the style of an iron gun, but it needs to be refined. My iron gun weighs eighty-five pounds, so go ahead and make a twenty-pound iron gun. You and Panbu's weapons are up to you, don't be afraid of spending money.
Money. Just go to the accounting office to get it in as much silver as you need!"
Meng Ge was overjoyed when he heard this and turned around to accept the order.
