Chapter 30: Please stay behind to reveal the big case
Sure enough, Zhu Shou's face darkened, but to the surprise of the big guys who were familiar with him, he did not get angry, but asked slowly: "How do you say this?"
Seeing the emperor's cold face, Wang Qinian, who was so bold, couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. His face turned from red to white, and then from white to red. It wasn't until Zhu Shou asked what to say that he breathed a sigh of relief and quickly replied: "Right now, making money is not about making money."
In the previous generation, people were involved in miscellaneous money, and the money was divided into three grades according to its quality. For the top grade, seven coins were worth one cent of silver, and one tael of silver could be exchanged for about seven hundred coins; for the bottom grade, twenty-one cents was worth one cent of silver.
One tael of silver can be exchanged for 2,100 taels of silver; the current strategy adopted by the court is to exchange for 700 taels of silver!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard two roars. Zhu Shou looked for fame and saw that they were Admiral Zhang Yong and Liu Jin.
Boss Liu knelt on the ground and shouted loudly: "This old slave is guilty. He did not know the true face of this traitor and almost missed the great event of the Holy One. Please punish this old slave and kill this traitor to thank the world!"
Admiral Zhang was stunned for a moment, took a small step, and knelt on the ground as well and said: "This old slave is also guilty. He was not employed properly. I still ask my little ancestor to kill this traitor who is rebellious."
These two incompatible guys actually opened fire on Wang Qinian together, both wanting the head of the mahjong card official. It is a wonder in the world.
Zhu Shou looked around and saw Chen Jing nodding slightly, indicating that he should agree to the request of the two bosses Liu and Zhang. Looking at the other bosses, they also all agreed.
While Zhu Shou was meditating, he heard Wang Qinian knock his head to the ground, making a thumping sound, and said loudly: "Long live, please listen to me, I have to finish my words!"
This middle-aged official's face was flushed, there seemed to be tears in his eyes, and he had a look of risk-taking on his face. Zhu Shou was a little puzzled: What kind of hornet's nest did this ugly man poke?
They all have to be killed quickly?
Listen to him? Or not? Can you withstand the attack of this hornet's nest?
In an instant, Zhu Shou made a decision: "Speak!"
He didn't look at the big bosses anymore, because he was the emperor, and if he didn't even dare to listen, then what kind of emperor was he?
"Thank you for your kindness!" Wang Qinian's tears suddenly flowed down his cheeks, and he said solemnly: "Our government uses money from the internal treasury to pay civil and military official salaries, regardless of whether they are old or new, good or evil, and all are calculated in seven pennies. This is a way of harming the country.
"
"What's the trouble? Tell me in detail." Zhu Shou's expression was very serious. This was the first time that he did not listen to Zhu Houzhao's thoughts, but made an uncompromising decision on his own.
"Long live! There are good and bad copper coins, and the casting composition is different. This is why the dispute between the minister and the chief Zhou arose," Wang Qinian said loudly. He knew that this might be the last time he spoke in his life, but this time
His words are destined to go down in history, "The chief minister of Zhou wants to cast the Zhengde Tongbao with fifty-fifty openings, but the minister insists on casting nine-one openings. This is a dispute based on the country. Even if the villain's head is cut off, he must speak clearly.
"
"Why is Guofen involved?" Zhu Shou asked in a deep voice.
Zhang Yongzheng, who was kneeling, was about to speak, but Zhu Shou glared at him and had to lower his head. Seeing that the emperor seemed to be very determined, the bosses around him had no choice but to shut up and did not dare to speak.
"If the coin is divided into five and five pairs, then the minted money will become a profit-seeking tool for profiteers. They will collect and make the money. After collecting it, they will not use it to trade, but will re-melt it to make copper.
Utensils!" Wang Qinian said loudly, "If you flip your hand, you will make dozens of times the profit, and the people who buy these bronze utensils are the princes in the court!"
Mr. Liu said in a sad voice: "Your Majesty, this thief is telling lies and confusing right and wrong..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhu Shou picked up a scroll of memorials on the Dragon Case, threw it at Boss Liu's face, and said, "Get out!"
Seeing that Boss Liu was kicked out, Wang Qinian continued excitedly, regardless of the murderous looks in his eyes: "When you buy bronze wares, you fill the gap! When the officials collect taxes, according to the laws of our court, the people
What has to be paid must be in silver. Low-quality miscellaneous money is prevalent among the people, and good coins are very rare. Therefore, when the common people pay one tael of silver, they have to use 2,100 miscellaneous coins instead! But when the officials hand it over to the treasury, they only use
Seven hundred copper coins are put into the treasury! The difference in price is more than three times! If you encounter a black-hearted local official and ask the people to use 2100 copper coins instead of one tael of silver, the benefits earned from it will be even greater
There are countless of them! Long live, if things continue like this, the foundation of the country will surely be shaken!”….
Even if mathematics is returned to the physical education teacher, such a simple algorithm cannot be understood anymore. This huge chain of interests runs through every corner of the Ming Dynasty. No matter who it is, as long as it is an official of the Ming Dynasty, everyone will be skewered.
In this chain of interests!
After thinking about this, Zhu Shou was shocked speechless. No wonder all the big guys wanted to kill Wang Qinian. Such a huge group, let alone this official who looked like mahjong tiles, even he, as the emperor, was completely incompetent.
Dare to offend.
I want to save this mahjong tile! These are the loyal ministers and martyrs of the Ming Dynasty. They dare to make enemies of the entire bureaucracy. They are more courageous than stepping on the minefield.
But how to save him? Zhu Shou was in trouble again. After staying in the Ming Dynasty for more than a year, he was no longer the otaku who was just waiting to die. After attending a political junior high school, he at least understood: if he provoked the entire bureaucracy,
If the group counterattacks, the world will be in chaos, and the consequences will be unimaginable. Currency reform cannot be implemented all at once, and it cannot be done too hastily. A very suitable opportunity must be found.
"Announce that Wang Qinian, the ninth-rank ambassador of the Ministry of Finance, who has stolen stolen goods from the Treasury and deceived the public with his evil words, will be banished to Yizhou for three years." Zhu Shou issued an imperial edict coldly, then stood up without looking at anyone in the room.
Under the escort of the emperor's ceremonial guard, he walked straight away.
Wang Qinian knelt on the ground and was dumbfounded. He passionately wanted to kill himself and leave his name in history. Unexpectedly, the emperor did not adopt his suggestion, but kicked him to the barren island in Yizhou!
For a small official like him who wants to leave his name forever, exile is more terrifying than beheading, because it won't take long for others to forget about you, and then you will die quietly. If you are killed because of the memorial, no matter whether the emperor adopts it or not
, at least it can leave a strong mark in the history books. This is Wang Qinian’s positive and negative calculation.
Returning to Nuange in Qianqing Palace, Zhu Shou said to Chen Jing who was accompanying him: "I have something I want to leave to you."
Chen Jing quickly knelt down and knelt on the ground with his head: "I will definitely protect Ambassador Wang."
Talking to Chen Jing saves trouble. Among the three little tigers, Zhu Shou likes this young man who is ten years older than himself the most. Wang Wei is too close and difficult to discipline; Su Jin has a gloomy personality and sometimes does not know where the sky is the limit.
Only this Chen Jing, who has been established recently, handles things calmly and knows how to advance and retreat. He is neither as power-hungry as Boss Liu nor as elusive as Admiral Zhang.
Zhu Shou said to Su Jin again: "I will leave it to you to deal with the aftermath of Zhengde Tongbao."
Su Jin was the eunuch in charge of the silver production bureau. Hearing this, he had no choice but to agree. He knew that Zhu Shou had also backed down. The distribution and production scale of Zhengde Tongbao could not exceed that of Hongzhi Tongbao. Maybe Zhengde gold and silver coins were it.
lessons learned from the past.
After Wang Qinian was driven out of the imperial city, he was escorted by two guards in golden clothes and sent to prison from West Chang'an Street. What awaited him would be his release in a few days. He was taken to Yizhou and died. Maybe he would not make it to Yizhou.
Zhou, maybe a group of strongmen would rush out halfway and take his life.
He considered himself a good minister. Although he was old and ugly, his red heart was always towards the emperor. He thought to himself, it was all the fault of those treacherous ministers who deceived Sheng Cong. If I were to be the elder of the cabinet, I would definitely take these things away.
Catch all the treacherous officials and make the world pure and clean.
As he was about to reach the intersection of Jinyiwei Yamen, Wang Qinian heard a burst of hearty laughter from behind him, and then someone shouted loudly: "The two official brothers in front of me, please stay."
When he looked back, he saw a eunuch with a pale face and no beard, who was fair and fat, and looked extremely wealthy.
"May I ask my father-in-law, what are your orders?" The two royal guards hurriedly stopped and walked up and down the royal guards. Everyone knew the truth, that is, when they see a eunuch, they should act like a grandson and wait until there is no threat before they can become a master...
.
"My name is Zhang Zhong." The eunuch who looked like a wealthy official smiled politely.
Beifengzhang?! The eunuch in the palm of the royal horse supervisor's hand!
The two royal guards knelt down quickly and said in unison: "I don't know if it's Admiral Zhang. I hope you don't blame the villain."
The imperial eunuch has a palm seal, and there is one supervisor and an admiral eunuch. Zhang Zhong is just a palm seal, and cannot be called an admiral, but admiral sounds better than a palm seal. For example, Boss Liu is the chief eunuch of the ceremony, but he likes to be called ""
"Factory Gong".
Zhang Zhong, nicknamed Beifeng Zhang, was rampant in the capital. He had a group of ruthless bandits, among whom the famous thieves Zhang Mao, Liu Liu, Liu Qi, Qi Yanming, Li Long, Yang Hu, etc. were all
People from Wen'an County, North Zhili Province, are all outstanding in martial arts. Among them, Liu Liu and Liu Qi are even more courageous and unstoppable.
Zhang Zhong and Zhang Mao are sworn brothers, and they have a fierce fight with Ma Yongcheng, Zhang Yong, Gu Dayong and others. Liu Liu and Liu Qi also became Liu Jin's disciples and became their godsons. These people are in the eunuch group.
It can be described as having both sides.
"Can you hand this person over to me?" Zhang Mao said gruffly from the side. He looked mighty and domineering, with a sinister face. You could tell at a glance that he was not a good person.
Wang Qinian was worried. These people were definitely not good people. If they fell into their hands, life would be worse than death.
The two Jinyi guards were escorted by the emperor's orders. Although they knew that Zhang Zhong could not be offended, they did not dare to agree easily. While hesitating, they heard Liu Liu shout loudly: "Thieves kill embryos, and if you continue to be wordy, grandpa will kill you with one knife."
Killed you two!"
If you encounter such a gangster on a daily basis, the two Jin Yiwei are the real masters. Regardless of Liu Liu's extraordinary martial arts skills, they also have many ways to make this guy's life worse than death. Unfortunately, the leader on the opposite side is Zhang Zhong. Today's
Everyone knows what happened. This is obviously sent by the big guys to kill people and silence them.
A guard in brocade clothes held an embroidered spring knife in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Admiral Zhang, the emperor's order is on my side. Please forgive me for not daring to obey my order."
If Wang Qinian is handed over to this group of people, neither of them will be able to escape their involvement. If the emperor pursues it, they will be the scapegoats. If they don't hand it over, there will definitely be nothing good to eat. They may be dismissed from their posts, but they will definitely not die.
The Jin Yiwei had all come out of the bloody storm, and the threats from Liu Liu and others were of no use to them, so they naturally knew how to choose.
Seeing the fight between the two sides, Wang Qinian felt sad in his heart. He suddenly rushed over and slapped Liu Liu in the face with a big slap! He shouted angrily: "Damn you thief, I am the official of the court, open your eyes and see."
You have no class, no class, and you dare to be so presumptuous in front of me, what kind of thing are you!"
Everyone was in an uproar, and the two Jinyi guards quickly pulled out the embroidered spring knives from their waists. They were not fools. This ninth-grade official deliberately provoked the villain and was obviously seeking death. After being banished to Yizhou by the emperor, this old man
It seems that the boy doesn't want to live anymore, but if you don't want to live, don't involve the two of us. The two of them felt depressed. In this place only a few steps away from the Jinyiwei Yamen, maybe they would be splashed with blood on the spot.
For a big eunuch like Zhang Zhong, who plays both sides and takes both sides, killing two small guards in royal robes has plenty of ways to escape, so it is not a big deal.
Seeing that the fight between the two sides was about to break out, a young eunuch walked out from the corner of the street, followed by a commanding officer, as well as countless imperial guards and warriors. They stood there with a smile and shouted: "Screen
Well done!"
Seeing this man, Zhang Zhong's face suddenly turned pale. Just as he was about to turn around, he heard the young man shout: "Brother Zhang, please stay."
The two words "please stay" opened the curtain on a major case that shocked the political arena of the Ming Dynasty.

Brothers, please stay and leave your votes and recommendations:)
