Zhu Di listened: "Xuan come in." ”

His voice fell, and the eunuch said: "A few Marquis of Annan, and Chen Wenjun, the head of the military department, are here." ”

Zhu Di groaned: "Call in together." ”

Xie Jin and the others, look at me, I'll look at you, to be honest, Zhang Anshi's approach has broken through the bottom line of hundreds of officials.

No holy decree, take people at will.

Now that the Qin case has been revealed, Zhang An Shi still has the courage to escort the dignified ministers of the Zhengwupin court to the palace.

Is this what you want to do, show off your might?

In all dynasties, there seems to be such an arrogant and domineering person, but there is a good end?

The third bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion is facing a lot of pressure now, if he doesn't say anything at this time, then from now on, he will not have the face to rank in the court.

The books of various departments are also mostly displeased.

This Wenchen can probably be divided into two factions, one is the upstart led by Xie Jin, Yang Rong and others.

On the other hand, the old nobles led by the official secretary and the household secretary Xia Yuanji.

Originally, between the two, although it is not said that water and fire are incompatible, at least on weekdays, they mostly look at each other unpleasantly.

After all, Jian Yi and Xia Yuanji are both old ministers, veterans who have gone through several dynasties, and they only got this high position by virtue of their qualifications.

A few years ago, they were just little-known characters, but now, their status and power are faintly above the old ministers like Jianyi.

But today, the minds of these hundred officials are surprisingly consistent, such a thing must not happen again, and Zhang Anshi must be punished.

Apparently...... Ji Gang saw this, and when Zhang Anshi was also arresting the party, Ji Gang's first reaction was to think that it was aimed at him.

It is the duty of Jinyiwei to arrest the rebellious party, so Zhang Anshi, does he want to replace him?

It's just that these little dolls, how can they be compared with tens of thousands of minions of Jinyiwei, it's a big joke!

Although Ji Gang was silent, he had already given birth to a murderous intent in his heart.

Zhang Anshi is a person...... I can't stay, I can't stay......

I'm afraid of the future......

Ji Gang raised his head and glanced at Liu Yongcheng silently.

He seemed to have an idea in his mind.

If...... His Majesty believes that the crown prince has the intention of rebellion...... So this Nexperia...... You can also solve it all together.

And concocting such things is what he is best at.

Of course, the top priority at the moment is to get rid of these geldings first.

In fact, in history, there was really a strange case of the prince's rebellion in the Yongle Dynasty, which involved a lot of people, and a large number of ministers of the East Palace were all convicted, and even Zhu Gaochi almost suspected that he would encounter an accident at any time.

But fortunately, Jin Zhong, the most trusted secretary of the military department at that time, stood up in time, bitterly stated the benefits, and used the heads of his whole family to vouch for it, so as to remove Zhu Di's suspicions.

And among those who concocted this...... Why is there less brocade guard?

As for Zhang Anshi's so-called holding of the chaotic party, Ji Gang just felt disdainful in his heart, these people ...... What do you deserve to do to mess with the party? Scold.........

Right now...... Zhang Anshi arrived.

Zhang Anshi took Zhu Yong and a few people and escorted Chen Wenjun into the palace.

Zhang Anshi is still very regular, and he saluted first: "The minister has seen Your Majesty." ”

didn't wait for Zhu Di to speak, and some ministers directly lost their manners: "Zhang Anshi, do you want to make trouble?" ”

It was Xie Jin who spoke.

Xie Jin's righteous indignation.

Zhu Di couldn't help frowning secretly, obviously ...... Xie Jin is not qualified to speak up and reprimand at this time.

It's just that...... Xie Jin came prepared, for him, now the hundred officials are talking about it, at this time, he directly reprimanded, even if he provoked His Majesty to blame, his prestige, I am afraid that it will be directly raised, and from then on, after the hundred officials, no one can surpass him.

After all, he is defending the interests of all officials.

What's more, even if His Majesty blames him for this, this is not a capital crime after all, at most, it will be a harmless punishment, it can only be regarded as a loss of honor in front of the king.

Zhang Anshili also ignored him, treating him as air, but said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, the prisoner Chen Wenjun is here." ”

Zhu Di looked at Zhang Anshi slowly.

He's so sad, this guy...... If you don't make good money, you like to meddle in things.

This guy is really well fed.

The more he thought about it, the more he was blocked, and Zhu Di said angrily: "This guy, what good things have you done." What kind of Qin criminal, Jin Yiwei has already taken the Qin prisoner. ”

Zhang Anshi said calmly: "Your Majesty, this is strange, Ming Mingchen is here, and he also took the prisoner." Your Majesty is aware of everything, and now that the person has arrived, you will know it when you ask. ”

But at this time, it was the backyard that caught fire.

Chen Wenjun, who was originally depressed, arrived in front of the palace, and immediately let go of his throat: "Wronged, wronged, I implore Your Majesty to be the master of the minister, the minister is conscientious, the sleeves are clean, and he has never made any mistakes in the thirteen years since he entered the dynasty, but the Marquis of Annan took me in a good manner, took people, punched and kicked the ministers, Your Majesty ......"

After that, he kowtowed and pounded garlic, and his miserable appearance made those who saw it sad and those who heard it wept.

Zhu Di frowned, and said in his heart that he was really in trouble now.

Xie Jin and the others began to be eager to try again.

That Ji Gang still stood with a humble appearance, his head lowered, but he sneered in his heart.

Zhu Yong was furious and wanted to give this Chen Wenjun an ear scraper and teach him to shut up.

Fortunately, he still has reason, and he knows that in front of His Majesty, he does not dare to make a mistake.

Zhu Di said with a cold face: "Wronged, you are not a chaotic party, what is Zhang Anshi arresting you for?" ”

Chen Wenjun: "......"

Chen Wenjun originally prepared countless manuscripts, but the result was ...... At this time, Zhu Di was directly broken by the defense, and he was speechless for a long time.

Zhu Di immediately looked at Zhang Anshi: "You said that he was a rebel, but there is evidence?" ”

"Yes." Zhang Anshi said: "There are witnesses and physical evidence. ”

As soon as these words came out, the people in the temple finally quieted down, and many people held their breath and waited for something.

Zhang Anshi first took out something and said, "Your Majesty, please see, what is this?" ”

A small eunuch accompanying him took the things Zhang Anshi had in hand, and then handed them to Zhu Di.

Zhu Di took it, took a closer look, and his face changed slightly.

What fell into Zhu Di's hands was an account.

In this account, the way of recording is very different, and many of the numbers seem to be out of order, which is obvious...... This is deliberately recorded in cipherlands.

So Zhu Di said: "What is this?" ”

"This was found in a warehouse owned by Chen Wenjun's steward."

Zhu Di said: "How can this account book be evidence of crime? ”

Zhang Anshi said: "In that warehouse, a lot of gold and silver were also found, not only that...... There are also many raw materials for firearms. ”

Zhu Di listened and looked at Chen Wenjun coldly.

Baiguan also showed a suspicious look on his face.

They all looked at Chen Wenjun.

Chen Wenjun suddenly shouted: "This ...... This...... One nonsense, one nonsense, what do these warehouses have to do with me? ”

Zhu Di's face became more and more gloomy, he stood up, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back, but said to Zhang Anshi: "How did you find that warehouse?" ”

Zhang Anshi smiled: "It's very simple, rely on arithmetic!" ”

Arithmetic......

Ji Gang was disdainful.

More people are confused.

Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, since it is a chaotic party and wants to rebel, this rebellion needs to be coordinated from inside to outside, but no matter what, they all need one thing...... That's weapons, and a lot of them. ”

Zhu Di listened and nodded subconsciously.

Speaking of rebellion, Zhu Di is not bragging, he himself is the ancestor of rebellion.

I think that when he was in Beiping, in order to make weapons, he even deliberately raised many geese in the palace, so that these geese made sounds, and used them to cover up the sound of building weapons.

"If that's the case, then it's easy to do." Zhang Anshile said he: "To manufacture a large number of weapons, a large number of raw materials are needed first. Of course, the minister did not know where they secretly made weapons, but one thing can be calculated, all the pig iron used to make weapons...... In particular, large-scale pig iron, as well as the raw materials for gunpowder, had to be extracted from the arsenal...... At this point, the minister's model battalion did not go to the military department to extract it. ”

Zhu Di nodded, but glared at him and said, "Can you not sell Guanzi, tell me straightforwardly." ”

Zhang Anshi said stupidly: "The minister always has to tell the story, otherwise, wouldn't Your Majesty have many questions?" ”

Zhu Di was secretly angry in his heart, how can he rebel, do you still need to teach me? When I rebelled, you were still playing with mud.

With patience, Zhu Di said: "Go on." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "The imperial court has always been very strict in the management of raw materials for the manufacture of weapons in large quantities, and the location of manufacturing weapons must not be a warehouse for piling up raw materials. The pig iron in the world, as well as saltpeter and other materials needed for gunpowder, are certainly not in one place. ”

Zhu Di nodded: "What else?" ”

Zhang Anshi said: "So...... There's one problem they definitely have to solve, and that's transportation. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Di also felt reasonable.

Ji Gang's face was getting colder and colder, and a pair of eyes inadvertently flashed a trace of fine light, staring at Zhang Anshi deadly.

Chen Wenjun's face ...... It's getting uglier and uglier.

I saw Zhang Anshi continue: "Since it involves transportation, then the minister is thinking...... Such a confidential thing, and such a large shipment, must require secrecy. This Nanjing city is the hub of the world's waterways, and the raw materials for weapons, nine times out of ten, are also transported from here. ”

"If we had to find out about this matter in the past, I was afraid that it would be time-consuming and laborious, and we would have to send countless officers and soldiers and ships to inspect it, which would not only be time-consuming and laborious, but also as long as the officers and soldiers checked it, they would definitely be shocked. Fortunately...... The minister's side solved this problem. ”

Zhu Di said: "How to solve it." ”

Zhang Anshi said: "It's very simple, since the opening of Brother Shipbuilding, more and more ships have joined Brother Shipbuilding, there are many cargo ships in this shipbuilding industry, the price is fair, and the most important thing is ...... With Brother Shipping's escort, we can ensure that the cargo is foolproof, and even if something goes wrong, Brother Shipping also has a compensation service. Therefore...... At present, the vast majority of merchants in Nanjing City need to transport goods, and they are directly handed over to the brother shipbuilding. ”

"But...... What these people are doing is not visible, after all, these goods are ...... It's taboo, so it's ...... The minister could have concluded that they would not have asked their brother ship to take care of the cargo. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Di became more and more interested, so he said: "This ...... There is some truth to that. ”

All the officials were silent, looking at Zhang Anshi one by one.

Ji Gang's face was tense.

I saw Zhang Anshi start to say again: "Look, this was originally a matter of looking for a needle in a haystack, but now it is ...... But it can already be narrowed down to those merchants who ship their own goods. There are indeed some goods at the wharves in Nanjing, which are transported by the merchants themselves. The minister asked people to check, and there are hundreds of such ships every day. Although there are hundreds, it is still a needle in a haystack...... Kechen remembered one more thing. ”

Immediately, Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Does Your Majesty know anything?" ”

Zhu Di glared at Zhang Anshi and said, "You don't have to ask me, I know a bird." ”

Zhang Anshi smiled dryly: "Minister, this is to liven up the atmosphere." ”

So, he hurriedly said: "On this dock...... Even if there are ships transported by the merchants themselves, the vast majority of sailors, especially the boatmen, are actually familiar with each other, after all, they are all in the same place to make a living, and when they dock at the dock, it is inevitable to greet each other, go ashore together to drink a little wine, and even play money together on weekdays. ”

Kechen was thinking...... These people are transporting forbidden things, and the boatmen they choose are, of course, their own people, just to prevent it from happening. And these boatmen...... Knowing that what he is doing is killing heads, he must be extra cautious, and those who are not cautious will not dare to believe it. ”

And so...... The minister then asked the people to narrow down the scope and let the people in the brother ship industry thoroughly investigate the boatmen outside the brother ship, especially those who are silent and rarely willing to deal with people on weekdays. This is ...... I really found a dozen of them. ”

Zhang Anshi paused, and said: "With these dozen goals, the next thing is much easier, but it is just for people to keep an eye on them, find their destination, and finally ...... Find the other party's storeroom. ”

After finding the treasury, the minister did not let people be alarmed immediately, but first determined the owner of the treasury and the identity of the people who entered and exited the warehouse, and finally ...... Touching the melon ......"

"Your Majesty, do you say that it is a coincidence, this Chen Wenjun's housekeeper...... It's in the middle of it...... So the minister led people to arrest Chen Wenjun on the one hand, and took his housekeeper on the other hand, and then asked people to copy the treasury, and sure enough, many taboo things were found in the warehouse, and his housekeeper ...... has also confessed, as for this account book, it was also searched from the treasury, and ordinary people can't understand it, but the housekeeper is honest. ”

"To decipher the numbers, it's actually very simple, that is, all the numbers in the first row are added to three, and the numbers in the second column are added to nine, and the third column is added...... minus 1...... Your Majesty follows this method and looks at this account book again, do you think it is ...... The numbers began to match. ”

Zhu Di lowered his head, but he looked confused, and he was still dazzled by this addition and subtraction.

But he's the emperor, how can he not understand?

I had to bite the bullet and didn't know how to pretend to understand: "I see, it's ...... like this"

Speaking of this, Zhu Di looked at Chen Wenjun: "What do you say?" ”

His tone began to be unkind.

Chen Wenjun's face was miserable, but he still denied it: "Wronged, wronged...... It's not about me, it's not about me...... It must be...... By the way, by the way, it must be the ...... in charge."

Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "The steward has already confessed to you, saying that it has always been your instructions." What's more, those saltpeters and pig iron, how could he get them with just a housekeeper? You are the head of the military department, so you can guard and steal yourself, and as long as you report a little loss, you can secretly move out the contents of the arsenal. It's just that...... Ready-made swords, guns, swords, halberds, and gunpowder, it is not easy to get them out, after all, the accounts are very clear. So...... You came up with the idea of the ingredients, after all...... This one is the least noticeable. ”

After a pause, Zhang Anshi said: "I have asked Jin Zhong Jin Gong to ...... I've checked the accounts of the Ministry of War. ”

Jin Zhong, who had not spoken, smiled slightly at this time: "It's just a gesture, it's just a gesture." ”

Zhang Anshi and Jin Zhong glanced at each other and smiled at each other.

Zhang Anshi and Jin Zhong are fateful.

Because Jin Zhong's most rebellious person in the DPRK and China is Yao Guangxiao, Yao Guangxiao is a monk, and Jin Zhong was Mr. Zi Measurement in Beiping, both of them are engaged in the service industry, and both are involved in the service industry of psychology.

The two can be said to cherish each other, and because of this, Yao Guangxiao saw Jin Zhong's talent and recommended Jin Zhong to Zhu Di.

The relationship between these two can be described as dry firewood.

After Zhang Anshi locked Chen Wenjun, he immediately found Yao Guangxiao and gave him 10,000 taels of silver for sesame oil.

Yao Guangxiao said that it was not enough, there was a Mr. Word Measurement who still wanted to calculate Zhang Anshi's birthday.

So, Zhang Anshi simply added another 10,000 taels of sesame oil money.

Soon...... The accounts from the military department came out.

At this time, Zhu Di looked at Jin Zhong.

Jin Zhong said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister has indeed checked the treasury of the military department in the past few days, and it has been ...... the past two years It is very strange that during the Hongwu period, the loss of some saltpeter and pig iron in the arsenal was often 12/10, but when it came to the hands of the chief Chen Wenjun, the loss increased to 23/10, that is...... In this arsenal...... Many things are lost by one or two percent...... The minister is the secretary of the military department, and it is a crime of ten thousand deaths to ignore this. ”

Zhu Di twisted his eyebrows and said: "Is it this Chen Wenjun who is in charge of the arsenal?" ”

"Chen Wenjun manages the Taiping Treasury and the Yongji Treasury. The problem is also the ...... of these two warehouses"

Zhu Di took a deep breath, his face changed, and then he looked at Chen Wenjun viciously: "Until now, do you still want to deny it?" ”

Chen Wenjun was already frightened, but he gritted his teeth and said, "Wronged...... Treat unjustly...... It must have been framed by Zhang Anshi. ”

But at this time, in fact, the truth of everything ...... It's almost already clear, and if you still shout injustice at this time, you really can't say it.

Zhang Anshi sighed and said: "Master Chen, at this point, if it were me, I would definitely hope that I could die happily, instead of resisting death and not admitting it." ”

Cold sweat like soybeans has seeped out of Chen Wenjun's forehead, and his body is like a sifting chaff, and only by gritting the root of his teeth can he close his jaw.

Zhu Di was not angry, he looked at Chen Wenjun deeply: "You can't do such a thing alone, and there are also comrades, right?" ”

"I ...... Wronged ......," Chen Wenjun muttered over and over again.

It's just that compared to the righteous shouting of grievances before, his aura is much weaker now, and he is no longer full of talent.

Ji Gang stood aside, his face was extremely gloomy.

He said coldly: "Even if it is the theft of the arsenal, it may not be a chaotic party." ”

That's true, maybe it's just profit.

Ji Gang said, looking back at Cui Yihong, who was kneeling on the ground, still with dull eyes.

But now, apparently, no one pays attention to what Ji Gang says.

Zhang Anshi comforted Chen Wenjun and said: "Even if you don't think about yourself, think about your own family, you don't want your family to suffer endless pain before they die." The commander of the Jinyi Guard is here, don't you know his means? Take 10,000 steps back, you have also received His Majesty's money, eat people and have a soft mouth, you will recruit it. ”

Chen Wenjun glared at Zhang Anshi viciously: "Shut up, you little thief." ”

Zhang Anshi: "......"

Chen Wenjun really hated Zhang Anshi, and Zhang Anshi was still planning for him.

Chen Wenjun gritted his teeth and said: "If it weren't for you, the old man would not be here today!" ”

What a smart man he was, in fact, by this time, he already knew that he was dead.

Thereupon...... He staggered, stood up, still gritted his teeth, stared at Zhang Anshi deadly, and said, "You...... You guys...... This world ...... is not surnamed Zhu, but you can't wait for the thief who steals the country. ”

Zhu Di's heart began to sink.

The other party did not scold him for usurping the throne, but directly said that the surname Zhu was stealing the country...... This is tantamount to scolding Emperor Taizu Gao.

The ministers have also changed color, and they obviously realize that the next ...... There may be things you shouldn't be listening to.

Some people looked at Zhu Di cautiously, but they just regretted it at this time, they knew that this was the case, they shouldn't have come!

Zhang Anshi said coldly: "Stealing the country? Whose kingdom has been stolen? ”

Chen Wenjun looked at Zhang Anshi hatefully, he became emotional, and his whole person was like a crazy beast.

Zhang Anshi was startled, and immediately jumped back, holding his hands to his heart, and shouted: "Protect my ......"

Zhu Yong and Zhang Wei were listening to it as if they were fascinated, and when they suddenly heard Zhang Anshi's words, they both looked at their eldest brother with a confused expression.

Only Qiu Song pounced at once, directly knocking Chen Wenjun down.

Chen Wenjun stumbled, fell down, and scolded in his mouth: "A thief who steals the country, a thief who steals the country...... Zheng Yugong and Wang Hangong have spirits in the sky...... Ha ha...... Haha......"

He didn't say anything in the first place.

But...... This Zheng Yu and Wang Han were really heard.

Zhu Di's face became even more ugly.

Zheng Yunai was a great Confucian in Jiangnan at the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, although under the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, the southerners were fourth-class people, and their status was almost equivalent to that of slaves, but after Zhu Yuanzhang expelled the Tartars, Zheng Yu regarded the Yuan Dynasty as orthodox.

Zhu Di wanted to invite Zheng Yu to go out of the mountain as an official, but Zheng Yu resolutely refused, so he died of hunger strike for seven days, and when he died, he told people that he could not live up to the Yuan Dynasty and wanted to be martyred for the Yuan Dynasty.

Another person named Wang Han was the same, and when he learned that Beiyuan was also exhausted, he chose to commit suicide.

At that time, there were many scholars like Zheng Yu and Wang Han, some jumped into the sea, some threw themselves into the sea, and some committed suicide, but Zheng Yu and Wang Han were both more famous Confucians, and their reputations were greater.

"Haha...... When my Dayuan goes south and sweeps through the pass, sooner or later...... To sweep away the unification of the two and others, I, Chen Wenjun, was born in the twenty-third year of Zhizheng, born as a Yuan person, and died as a Yuan ghost. ”

Zhu Di was furious: "Take it, take it for me!" ”

Chen Wenjun still scolded: "You and other usurpers are also unwilling to keep to themselves, Zhu Di, your father is just a beggar, a cloth cloth, is he also worthy of dominating the world?" In your blood, it is just the blood of beggars, the blood of Huaiyou cloth! ”

He looked like he was crazy, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Zhu Yong stepped forward first and punched him in the teeth.

"Hmm......" Chen Wenjun couldn't speak, just opened his mouth and closed it, and spit blood from his mouth.

The officials were speechless because of this Chen Wenjun's madness.

Zhu Yong and Zhang Xun hurriedly dragged Chen Wenjun out.

Zhang Anshi was actually taken aback, he thought that this Chen Wenjun would definitely cry and beg for mercy, but he didn't expect it...... This guy is crazy at this time.

Fortunately...... Didn't hurt yourself.

Zhu Di was furious in his heart.

Just for now...... Zhu Di still has a trace of reason.

He knew very well that he must not kill Chen Wenjun at this time, Chen Wenjun is a person...... There are also uses.

He kept taking deep breaths, and his heart became inexplicably irritable.

His eyes flickered and dimmed, like an angry lion, and at this moment, he just wanted to eat people.

He never expected that this guy would ...... dared to insult his father.

For Emperor Taizu Gao, Zhu Di may not feel the full warmth of father and son like his imperial brother Zhu Biao.

But Emperor Taizu Gao has always been Zhu Di's role model, and what he desires in his heart is to make immortal achievements like Emperor Taizu Gao, and ...... in the future Even if he dies and goes to see Emperor Taizu Gao, at least Emperor Taizu Gao will not blame himself for raising troops.

Zhu Di's eyes were blood-red, he clenched his fists angrily, and walked quickly beside the throne, and suddenly, his eyes, like a bolt of lightning, fell on Cui Yihong.

Step by step, he stepped forward.

Ji Gang hurriedly retreated, Ji Gang's face was already extremely bad, and he was as docile as a sheep at this time.

But Zhu Di ignored him, but asked Cui Yihong word by word: "Tell me, are you a messy party?" ”

Cui Yihong seemed to be a conditioned reflex, and immediately said: "Slave maid...... Covetousness of goods...... and self-righteousness...... Future...... In the future, if someone who has served the former Yuan enters the customs, it will ...... You can get a big credit. ”

Zhu Di was even more furious: "I ask you again, when did you collude with the rebel party?" ”

Cui Yihong said: "Slaves and maids are greedy for money...... and self-righteousness...... In the future, if someone who has served the former Yuan enters the customs, it will ...... You can get a great merit, so the slave and maid are a chaotic party. ”

Zhu Di stood up straight, he seemed to be cold all of a sudden, exuding a cold air all over his body, and his eyes were ...... Nor is it angry, but dark and unfathomable.

Ji Gang's face changed greatly, he fell to the ground, and knelt at Zhu Di's feet: "Your Majesty...... Minister...... Minister...... It is a crime to do things unfavorably, and it is a sin of death. ”

Zhu Di did not respond.

Zhang Anshi thought it was too funny, why did Cui Yihong look like a tape recorder, so he whispered: "Are you a messy party?" ”

Cui Yihong immediately said: "Slave maid...... Covetousness of goods...... and self-righteousness...... Future...... In the future, if someone who has served the former Yuan enters the customs, it will ...... You can get a big credit. ”

Zhang Anshi said: "Do you think I look like a chaotic party? ”

Cui Yihong said: "Slave maid...... Covetousness of goods...... and self-righteousness...... Future...... In the future, if someone who has served the former Yuan enters the customs, it will ...... You can get a big credit. ”
