Domineering Daming

"Bastard, even if Jin Yiwei doesn't have the will, he can't trespass, ah..."

"Under the order of His Royal Highness King Hui, the treasury of the Ministry of Industry will be sealed up. Anyone who dares to obstruct him will be killed on the spot!"

Jin Yiwei's knife was light and cold, rushed into the gate of the Ministry of Industry, and went straight to the warehouse. Some people tried their best to stop them. After being hacked and killed two, they immediately became unimpeded.

"Who dares to break into my Dali Temple!" Dali Temple Cheng strode out from the inner courtyard and shouted at the Da inner guards who rushed in.

"Ouchi guards are on duty according to the order, and if there is any obstruction, they will be dealt with according to the order!" The leading guard said without any explanation, and put a knife on his neck.

The Prime Minister of Dali Temple looked pale, but still pouted his neck and said: "What is the purpose?"

"Hmph." The leading guard kicked him to the side, and said in a deep voice: "If you doubt it, let your adults enter the palace to see the emperor to ask, there will be no time to talk nonsense to you, seal the treasury, if there is any conspiracy, immediately Report, the imperial army will be mobilized to suppress the rebellion!"

After this sentence fell, the soldiers and yamen servants of Dali Temple who were still about to make a move were frightened. The guards in the palace had already killed people without blinking an eye.

Shuntian Mansion, Dali Temple, Youwei Yamen, Household Department, Ministry of Industry, Ministry of Rites, Ministry of Officials, including the Ministry of Punishment where Zhu Xu was located, all escaped.

Those who are in the yamen, those who are not in the yamen, those who are in Beijing and those who are not in Beijing, the heads of all the yamen are going crazy.

And Zhu Xu was sitting in the lobby of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, waiting for someone to return. He was accompanied by Liao Tianyong, a member of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and the boss of Dali Temple, including Zhang Guoji and Zhang Guogong.Until now, they still don't know the purpose of Zhu Xu's actions. They only think that he is the person who sent someone to get the Metropolitan Procuratorate to write the papers and seize the treasury of the Ministry of War.

"We want to see His Royal Highness King Hui, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

All of a sudden, someone from outside the hall barged in, dressed in official clothes, with an irritable expression, yelling.

Zhu Xu naturally knew who it was, so he winked at Feng Zhu, Feng Zhu nodded, turned and shouted in a sharp voice: "His Royal Highness is ordering the trial, no one is allowed to trespass, come, press into the side room !"

"Let me in, let me in, I'm the household servant!"

Feng Zhu knew something bad was going to happen as soon as he heard it, so he hurriedly walked outside, and shouted at the same time: "What are you shouting, put aside, my father-in-law will interrogate himself!"

"Let go of me, I want to see His Royal Highness Hui Wang, uh..."

Soon, this person was covered by the Ouchi guards and escorted to the side room.

But no one here is stupid, on the contrary, they are very shrewd. Liao Changyong, a member of the criminal department, and Bo, the master of Dali Temple, all looked at Zhu Xu with suspicious expressions.

Zhang Guoji knew from the beginning to the end that Zhu Xu was pretending to be stupid. He thought he didn't want to provoke him again, but his heart sank when he saw the man just now. He knew him, and he was indeed the servant of the household department.

He thought of the repeated instructions sent by the empress, and suddenly had a bad feeling. He stood up and walked behind the desk, and asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, what exactly are you doing, can you reveal a little bit?"

Zhu Xu looked up at his fair face, and said with a smile: "My lord, I always followed what Master Liao said."

Looking at Zhu Xu's appearance, Zhang Guoji felt more and more uneasy. After thinking about it, he persuaded him: "Your Highness, I hope you will stop causing trouble."

"It's easy to say." Zhu Xu nodded repeatedly.

Zhang Guoji frowned, remembering the empress's words, this highness is very smart at a young age, now listening to his words, for some reason, there is always a feeling in his heart that the world will collapse.

Liao Tianyong looked at Zhang Guoji, then at Zhu Xu, suddenly his heart moved, and he flirted with a yamen servant not far away.

The yamen servant nodded, taking advantage of people not paying attention, and slipped out quietly.

Bo, the master of Dali Temple, also behaved in the same way.

Everything fell into Zhu Xu's eyes, but he smiled and said nothing, waiting with everyone.

Not long after the two yamen servants went out, several big inner guards also quietly followed them out.

"Well, what are you going to do..."

"His Royal Highness Hui wants to ask questions, be honest!"

The two yamen servants were quickly fainted, and they were escorted back quietly.

Zhang Heming was always in the center of the lobby. He was a seasoned veteran. Although he looked down on Zhu Xu, the little brat, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Chapter 78 I Can't Judge Cases

Zhang Heming frowned, and suddenly said: "Your Highness, everyone is waiting now, when are we going to wait?"

Zhu Xu looked at Zhang Heming, as if he was the chief judge, not the prisoner.

Zhu Xu is not a vegetarian either, he opened his eyes immediately, looked at him, and slowly turned to look at Liao Tianyong.

Liao Tianyong had been uneasy for a long time. He didn't know what His Royal Highness Hui Wang had done outside, but at this moment he had no choice but to bite the bullet and shout at Zhang Heming: "How can you roar in the hall of the Ministry of Punishment? Wait!"

Seeing Zhu Xu's actions like this, Zhang Heming felt even more disturbed.But he was just uneasy, he didn't think Zhu Xu could do anything to him.

He has been in the court for decades, and he has already figured it out. If it is a small crime, a group of people would like to trample him to death, but if it is a serious crime, a large group of people will protect him!According to his prediction, he will be demoted at most, and there will be no danger.

Not long after, Cao Wenzhao hurried in.

"Let's talk later."

When Zhu Xu saw it, he stood up and walked towards the side door.

Liao Tianyong and others wanted to stop them from asking, but they had no reason to do so, so they could only be in a hurry.

Zhang Guoji's face was worried, he murmured, and followed him into the side door.

"Your Highness, everything is sealed."

Cao Wenzhao followed Zhu Xu and said excitedly.

Zhu Xu couldn't restrain himself, and asked standing up, "Tell me about the situation."

Cao Wenzhao paused, organized his language and said: "Except for the ones confiscated by the Ministry of War, all the account books of each yamen have been collected. A rough calculation shows that it exceeds 5000 million taels."

Zhu Xu raised his brows immediately, this is a rough calculation, plus there are small treasuries in each yamen and private collections of yamen soldiers, the actual number is even bigger than he estimated!

"The capital is really prosperous."

The corners of Zhu Xu's mouth turned up slightly, and he sighed with a half-smile.At this time, the most prosperous place is not the capital, but Jiangnan.The barren, wet and cold land in the north, coupled with the threat of war, is far less prosperous and rich than the Jiangnan that has been in peace for hundreds of years.

He couldn't help but think in his heart, how much "tax" would be incurred if he copied Nanjing once.

Zhang Guoji walked in from the outside, listening to the conversation between Cao Wenzhao and Zhu Xu, his expression was not very good.Although he does not perform government affairs, he also clearly knows that Daming's annual tax is only 250 million taels!

5000 million taels, 250 million taels, what irony!

Zhu Xu glanced at Zhang Guoji, and didn't mean to avoid him, saying: "Now we must hurry up, we can't let them react, you gather people, and transport all the property to the palace, you must act quickly!"

Zhu Xu had ordered these before, Cao Wenzhao nodded without hesitation and said, "It's Your Highness!"

After Cao Wenzhao left, Zhang Guoji finally came to his senses, looked at Zhu Xu with a changed expression, and said, "Your Highness, did you really copy all six yamen?"

Zhu Xu blinked his big eyes, and said with an innocent face: "Duke, you are watching, I don't know how to judge cases, and I have always followed the orders of that member of the criminal department, Wailang."
