Since Zhu Jie and Xu Yifan met in the Daimyo's Mansion, until now, almost six or seven years, Zhu Jie has never been so harsh about Xu Yifan, in the past, he was thunderous to others, but Xu Yifan was an exception, it was really Xu Yifan's appetite for Zhu Jie to do things.

However, this time is different, it is about the Ming Dynasty, Tianwei Army is the foundation of the Ming Dynasty, where can it be so child's play?

"Your Majesty, this matter was decided by the minister, Bai Gu and Li Yan, and the three of them jointly discussed, and the military department counted the number of casualties and the merits of the soldiers; According to the emperor's intentions, the pension has doubled compared with usual, and at the same time, the household department allocated two silver to the state capitals and issued the pension silver, in order not to make mistakes, Bai Gu is responsible for keeping an eye on the military department, the minister is responsible for keeping an eye on the Ministry of Rites, and Li Yan is responsible for staring at the household department, and the implementation of the three departments has definitely not made any mistakes, but I am afraid that this mistake will appear in the state capitals in various places......"

Xu Yifan hurriedly said.

Zhu Jie's heart was clear, hehe, fortunately, he listened to Xu Yifan's suggestion and planned to go out on patrol, otherwise, this matter would still be hidden in the dark! The officials of the Ming Dynasty have always been accustomed to deceiving their superiors and subordinates, and they must have been used to the silver taels and land allocated by the imperial court, and when they arrived at the local level, they were all filled by these people!

The unauthorized taxation of the governor of Gaotang Prefecture is a trivial matter, not worth mentioning, and the dismissal is a matter for the people, but this matter is definitely a big thing! The Tianwei army has always advanced and retreated together, with the same hatred of the enemy, after years of fighting, now the casualties of the soldiers have reached tens of thousands, scattered in various states and counties across the country, if the pension allocated by the imperial court can not be fully distributed to these people, how can these people survive? This is a thunderbolt, a thunderbolt......

"Gao Tang Judge Du Zhongxian!"

Du Zhongxian, who was on the side, hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied, "Your Majesty, Weichen is here!" ”

"Tell me, how many casualties do you have in Gaotang Prefecture? How about the bereavement pension? ”

Zhu Jie asked coldly, if you want to know the truth, then you must go below to ask clearly, it just so happens that Gaotang Prefecture is a good place, let's understand the local situation first......

"This ......"

Du Zhongxian wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said in a low voice: "The emperor forgives the sin, these affairs are handled by Song Deren single-handedly, and Weichen did not interfere......"

Even if Du Zhongxian knew, he didn't dare to say it rashly, he didn't know how many soldiers were killed and retired due to injuries in Gaotang Prefecture, but how much benefit he shared, can he not know? At this time, tell the truth, with the emperor's current monstrous anger, I am afraid that he will cut himself immediately......

"Bastard!"

Zhu Jie was furious and roared: "Give you a stick of incense time, find out the roster of the Tianwei Army of Gaotang Prefecture who died and retired and returned to their hometowns, and in one day, I will gather all the soldiers or family members, and I will personally meet them!" Delay time, I will not forgive! ”

"Yes, yes!"

Du Zhongxian ran down with a roll, and it didn't take long for the roster to be found and handed to Zhu Jie.

After all, Gaotang Prefecture is only a state, or a medium-sized state, there are not many personnel, on the roster, the soldiers who died in battle and were wounded and returned to their hometowns, a total of 152 people, of which 47 were killed in battle and 95 were wounded, according to the regulations of the imperial court, more than 10,000 taels of silver are needed for pensions, and more than 2,000 acres of fertile land......

"Du Zhongxian, have all these pensions and fertile land been distributed?"

Zhu Jie asked.

"This, this ......"

Zhao Zhenghang on the side couldn't stand it anymore, and went up with a resounding slap, and shouted: "Say, give Lao Tzu an honest explanation, are those silver and good fields honestly sent down, dare to say a lie, Lao Tzu will cut you with a knife!" ”

Zhao Zhenghang fought on the battlefield, killing people without counting, and his murderous aura was like substance, and now he was carrying Du Zhongxian's collar, and the murderous intent in his eyes was revealed, and Du Zhongxian was directly paralyzed into a ball of mud with fright......

"Your Majesty, the emperor spares his life, these things are all done by Song Deren to the ministers, sent by Shangguan, the ministers dare not disobey, from Dongchang Mansion to Gaotang Prefecture, a total of more than 8,000 taels of silver, the good land bought up is enough, Lord Song will Yin Yin Liang and Liang Tian divided into three, 2,000 taels of silver, returned to Dongchang Mansion, and at the same time gave Shangguan 300 acres of good land, the rest of the 2,000 taels of silver, 300 acres of good land entered Song Deren's pocket, and 1,000 taels of silver and 200 wood of good land were divided by other officials of the Yamen, The actual amount allocated to the soldiers was only 3,000 taels of silver and 500 acres of land......"

3,000 taels of silver, 500 acres of land......

Zhu Jie felt his head dizzy, there were only two percent left, only two percent left, even these two percent might not be able to all enter the hands of these soldiers, how could this be reasonable, how could it be reasonable! I have so many moths! Heaven is intolerable, heaven is intolerable!

Soon, a day passed, and by the morning of the next day, Zhu Jie had hardly slept all night, and Xu Yifan and Zhao Zhenghang accompanied him around, and he didn't close his eyes.

On the morning of the next day, the retired soldiers and their families of the Tianwei Army gathered from all directions, and they were all excited. What about the fertile land? Your Majesty, can't we cross the river and tear down the bridge like this......

Zhu Jie looked at the soldiers in front of him, his eyes were red, and he was sad, this is a soldier who fought for himself, and he can't treat them badly if he treats anyone badly!

"Your Majesty, Guo Kaixin, the prefect of Dongchang Mansion, has arrived in ......"

Jia Yunting also didn't close his eyes, galloped quickly, and rushed to Dongchang Mansion at midnight, took the prefect Guo Kaixin out of the bed, changed his clothes, rode a fast horse, and rushed back again!

Guo Kaixin is almost scared to death now, originally he thought it was just a little thing about Song Deren's tax collection, although he had the fault of not being strict with the emperor, but at most he reprimanded a few words, punished him with a little money, or demoted himself to an official level, he only needed to go up and down, and it wouldn't take long for him to get through.

However, when Guo Kaixin saw hundreds of people gathered at the yamen, he knew that something big was wrong, this was the old department of the Tianwei Army, and he was the most valued person by the emperor......

"Minister, minister, prefect of Dongchang Mansion, Guo Kaixin, see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live, long live......"

Zhu Jie's angry eyes glared at Guo Kaixin, "Guo Kaixin, can you explain to me what is going on with these more than 100 people?" Is it that when you arrive in Dongchang Mansion, there will be thousands of people gathered? Isn't it! ”
