Donghou Mansion, in the quiet study.

Zhuge Jin stood in front of the bookcase, and there was also a young man in cloth, thin, yellow, looking no more than fifteen or sixteen years old, but obviously a little malnourished.

"Ziyu, how is the matter investigated?" Sun Quan strode in, sat down directly, and glanced up at Zhuge Jin, his voice was like ice, wisps of murderous aura, and the temperature in the entire room dropped a few points.

"Junhou, this matter is not simple, it turns out that a certain is only the investigation of the Wu County Ya, but it doesn't seem to be the subject of the Wu County Ya on the one hand, it seems to be getting bigger and bigger, and Dasi Nong and Shaofu are involved!"

Zhuge Jin's face was solemn, and he bowed his hand and reported in a deep voice.

Sun Quan went to visit Cai Yong and then gave him a task.

The soldier's pension was swallowed up, in fact, there has been such a practice since the end of the Han Dynasty, exploiting at all levels, and Zhuge Jin also knows some of them.

Originally, he thought that the matter was not big, but it was the people below who were greedy, so he had not bothered Jinyiwei, and with the relationship of Donghou Mansion, he started to investigate from the county government of Wu County, but the more he investigated, the more Zhuge Jin felt that things were not simple.

The soldier's pension was stipulated by the court, and then it was counted by the Shaofu and distributed by Dasi Nong.

Funds must go through these two sectors.

Under the three princes, there is Jiuqing.

Jiuqing didn't just point to the nine court ministers. Rather, it is the court that manages the nine major departments of the world.

Dasi Nong is one of the Jiuqing, and Shaofu is also one of the Jiuqing, one who manages the world's tax finances. A person who manages the people's livelihood in the world actually adds up to a household department.

"Haha, good, good!"

When Sun Quan heard this, his eyes narrowed, and the light in his eyes bloomed with a shocking color.

In the court, he understands some rules. There are some things he can endure, as the saying goes, the water is clear, there are no fish.

But there are some things that he can't bear.

This battle. Most of the tens of thousands of soldiers who sacrificed died in the East China Sea because of him, if they couldn't even keep their own money, then he wouldn't be worthy of being the Donghou of Wu State.

"What's your name?" Sun Quan turned his head. Rise. His eyes stared at the young man behind Zhuge Jin, who was obviously a little trembling.

"Report to the prince, a certain name is Xue Ming!"

The young man raised his head slightly, looked at Sun Quan, his expression was steady, there was a glimmer of hope in his expression, and his eyes were burning.

He knew that maybe Sun Quan could get justice for him.

"Xue Da Niu is your brother?"

Sun Quan continued to ask.

"Yes!"

Xue Ming heard his brother's name. His expression suddenly became excited.

"Ziyu, Xue Daniu's information!" Sun Quan stretched out his hand. Towards Zhuge Jin, he said.

"No!"

Zhuge nodded, and then directly handed a file to Sun Quan, and while handing it over, he introduced it softly, and said: "Xue Daniu is a tun chief under General Xu Sheng, who enlisted in the army in the third year of the first peace, and died in the battle of Lanling in the second year of the Warring States period. ”

This is a very ordinary member of the Wu State soldiers.

There are no vigorous deeds, he is not a hero who single-handedly picks up ten thousand armies, nor is he a general who turns the tide, but he died in battle for the sake of Wu State.

This ordinary soldier made Sun Quan feel boundless guilt.

"Xue Ming, how much pension did you get?" Sun Quan's eyes flashed, looking at Xue Ming, and Huang Zhizhong's voice had a touch of calm after being depressed.

"Return to the prince, three thousand dollars!"

A flash of anger burst out of Xue Ming's eyes, and he gritted his teeth.

"Three thousand?"

Sun Quan's face was indifferent, and a sentence burst out from between his teeth: "The lives of our Wu soldiers are really worthless!" ”

Three thousand yuan, according to the price of this era, is only ten stone of grain.

If it is the kind of chaotic world that Yi Zi eats, this price, they can accept it.

In the war-torn world, people can eat a full meal, and everything is worth it, even if there is no pension, as long as they can eat enough, they can go to the army.

But the state of Wu is not a troubled time, the Xue family is from Wu County, and Wu County has been stable since the second year of the early peace, and it has always been the hinterland of the Sun family's regime.

Even if the people of Wu County are a small subordinate and tenant, they are not worth the price.

"Junhou, please give us the Xue family the master!"

Xue Ming knelt down on his knees and pleaded.

If this was a price given by the court, Xue Ming would have endured it, but he knew from a student of Jiangdong Academy that the court's pension was not a price at all.

It was unbearable for him.

His brother fought desperately for the Wu State, and finally sacrificed his life for the Wu State, but the pension he earned for his life was actually swallowed up, and of course he was furious.

The Xue family has two brothers, and there are two old people who have lost the ability to work, so they have been living very poorly, he grew up with his brother since he was a child, and his brother ran to be a soldier in order for him to have a career, gritted his teeth and sent him to Jiangdong Academy, a person not only has to provide him with school, but also to support his parents, and he has endured all the hardships, and he has not even married his daughter-in-law, and all the monthly salary is sent home.

Now that his brother has died on the battlefield, he can't tolerate the fact that his brother's pension earned by his life is embezzled.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to sue the county government, but in the end he got a beating, he was unwilling, so he wanted to go to the county guard of Wu County to complain, but that night, his house was burned down, the second elder burned to death on the spot, he escaped, but has been chased and killed, hiding in Tibet.

A few days ago, he hid in the house of a good classmate, and was found by Donghou Mansion through the clues of Jiangdong Academy.

"Ziyu, what is the price of the soldier's pension?"

Sun Quan's expression was very calm, so calm that Zhuge Jin's heart felt a chill.

"Serve the prince, an ordinary soldier. Originally, it was 15,000 yuan, but because the treasury sold this year was very smooth, the treasury was sufficient. The king was very happy, so he added three thousand yuan to each soldier, and the pension of the fallen soldiers of the rank of Tun chief should be twenty thousand! ”

Zhuge Jin's eyes moved slightly, and he said in a low voice.

"Twenty thousand? Three thousand? ”

Sun Quan was a little sneering, and said coldly: "This is the regime maintained by the countless sacrificed soldiers of our Wu State, very good, I have seen the rampant of some people." ”

"Prince. I'm afraid this matter is not a matter for a few people, it involves a lot, and even the top four families of Wu Country are involved! Zhuge Jin said in a low voice.

"Who's involved. All to die! Sun Quan's voice was calm, but decisive.

"Prince, do you want to report this matter to the king to deal with!"

Zhuge Jin's heart tightened slightly, and his eyes looked at Sun Quan. It's clearly a rampage rhythm.

"Somebody knows it. Xue Ming, you first lived in Donghou Mansion, this matter, a certain will definitely give you a most satisfactory explanation, and a certain will definitely not let any soldier who sacrificed his life for the Wu State die in vain! ”

Sun Quan's amber eyes flashed one after another, and there was a touch of crystal clear light flowing, and he said firmly.

"Thank you for your brother!"

Xue Ming heard Sun Quan's words of assurance, and suddenly stood up. His face was a little excited, and he bowed to Sun Quan ninety degrees with great gratitude.

"Go ahead!"

Sun Quan waved his hand. A personal guard walked in, then took Xue Ming down and placed him in Donghou Mansion.

"Ziyu, summon Li Nie!"

Sun Quan groaned for a long time, stood up, paced back and forth, and thought about it for a long time before he said lightly.

"No!"

Zhuge Jin nodded, and then walked down.

Half an hour later, Li Nie came in a hurry, strode into the Donghou Mansion, stepped into the study, looked at Sun Quan, who was sitting on the Taishi's chair with a gloomy face and could drip water, and arched his hand and said: "Junhou, is it so urgent, is there something important?" ”

"Lao Li, look at this!"

Sun Quan looked up, looked at Li Nie, and then handed Li Ne a copy of the dossier.

"What is this?"

Li Ne was a little curious, spread it out directly, and when he looked at it, the light in his pupils suddenly contracted, and the zombie face that usually collapsed in front of him without changing color twitched.

It's so rampant.

Even he felt a nameless anger rise up in the sky.

"Lao Li, if you know, the reason why the Han Dynasty will perish, the ten permanent servants have to bear the greatest responsibility, because they are greedy, greed is the original sin, you have experienced that era, the greed of the ten permanent servants can be used to buy and sell official positions as goods, so in the end they are greedy for the Han Dynasty."

"But this is the State of Wu, the State of Wu, which has been established for less than three years, a certain family does not allow the nascent regime of our State of Wu, full of greed, the State of Wu adds up to tens of thousands of officials, greedy for one, and kill one!"

Sun Quan seemed to be talking to himself, and his deep voice made Li Nie listen to it, and there was also a touch of uneasiness flowing in his heart.

"Prince, how do you want Jinyiwei to help?"

Li Ne closed the file gently, his face was pale, his eyes looked at Sun Quan firmly, and asked in a low voice.

He is one of the few people who understands Sun Quan's character, and Sun Quan's reverse scales that have been touched by this matter, with Sun Quan's temper, it is absolutely impossible to turn a big thing into a small thing.

Even if this matter has already involved two of the Jiuqing, half of the family of Wu State, Sun Quan also chose to die.

That's what he is.

Sometimes it's very forgiving, but sometimes there's no sand in the eyes, and you either don't do it or you don't do it.

So what Li Nie wants to do most now is how to minimize the damage he suffers when Sun Quan is doing things.

Resist several major families, even Donghou Mansion will not be able to bear it.

Sun Quan smiled coldly, the thick killing intent in his eyes exploded, and there was an incompalevable firmness in his expression, and he said firmly: "Within three days, a certain family wants the most detailed information, can you do it?" ”

"There is no problem, a certain guarantee to give the prince a copy of the most trusted information, from top to bottom, not a single one is missed!"

Li Ne nodded, looked at Sun Quan's somewhat distorted face, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice: "However, whether the prince and the marquis want to punish the evil, or do you want to ......?"

At this moment, his heart trembled a little, if Sun Quan went berserk, he couldn't suppress it, even Sun Jian couldn't suppress it.

In the past, for the sake of a Zhu Zhi, he could go to war with several major families at any cost.

Now that the whole thing is going to be fought to the end with them, I'm afraid this court will be shaken.

"Do you want to ask me, kill the chicken and make an example of the monkey, or kill the monkey and make an example of the chicken?"

Sun Quan smiled faintly, his smile was very cold.

"Hmm!"

Li Ne nodded, looking at Sun Quan with a glimmer of hope in his eyes, he didn't mind Sun Quan killing people, but he didn't want Sun Quan to smash himself into it because of this matter.

If this matter is not done well, it will cause chaos in the court, which Sun Jian does not allow, if Sun Quan is stubborn and provokes Sun Jian, the Donghou Mansion will also be suppressed.

"Lao Li, this time, a certain family sued sΓΉ ru, you think wrong, a certain think...... Let's kill together! ”

Sun Quan squinted, and the cold glow in his eyes was like the cold of the ice and snow.

"Junhou, as the so-called water is clear, there are no fish, although they are rampant, but as long as the first evil is killed, the others can take their time, if they are all killed together, the Wu Kingdom will cause chaos, and the gains outweigh the losses."

Li Nie was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly persuaded: "This matter is so widely involved, if you kill them all, I am afraid that the number of people will exceed three digits." ”

"Lao Li, I don't understand this truth, but it doesn't work here, you can discuss it at any time, but this one can't do it, a certain soldier who doesn't want to die in the East China Sea will not be blind."

The corners of Sun Quan's mouth outlined an arc, and a firm smile represented his heart, and said: "There is no shortage of people in Wu Kingdom, kill a batch, and there is a batch, and you can't finish killing it!"
