Li Yu didn't notice that he was being targeted by Zhu Xiongying, and was still muttering to Zhao Quande.

Both felt that something was wrong this time.

The crown prince Zhu Biao has always been lenient, but this leniency is relative to Zhu Yuanzhang, for them local officials, Zhu Biao is not less ruthless, many corrupt officials are stripped of skin and grass, all of which are handled by Zhu Biao himself.

"His Royal Highness the Prince, don't you already know about you and me?" Li Yu swallowed his saliva.

Zhao Quande also wiped the sweat on his forehead, and said in a low voice: "If it happens, you and I will not escape the death penalty......"

The two looked at each other, left and right.

I wanted to escape, but the Jinyi Guard had already surrounded this place very tightly.

In fact, after the crown prince Zhu Biao came to Beiping, they became nervous.

Because, Xu Da is seriously ill, and Li Yu can intervene in many things about military food and salary, although Zhu Di is said to be the king of the domain, he can't manage the money and food logistics, so he can only be in charge of the army.

This leads to a problem.

Xu Da has been faithfully carrying out the orders of Hongwu Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, but he is powerless.

And because Zhu Di is a vassal king, he can't control money and grain, and he needs to avoid it, plus in the north in the past few years, because Zhu Di, the king of Yan, and Zhu Li, the king of Jin, have pleaded with the Son of Heaven, the military intelligence department of Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong has not done anything to these corrupt magistrates.

After all, the thousands of households in the local guard station, the military leaders who drank the blood of the soldiers were not dealt with, and our civilian officials were greedy according to the customary customs, which was nothing.

The thousands of households in the local health center, but they directly took the folds of military household access in their hands, collected them themselves every month, and sent them to the majority soldiers under them depending on their mood......

In the past two years, after the south became rich, there were too many military rations and materials transported to the north.

Daming and lack of professional tellers liquidation yamen, such as customs, inspection department, etc., their own training of the teller science and engineering seeds, only in Taixue for two years, just distributed to the provinces of Nanzhili, clear the acres of land, help to be the Ming Royal Bank of the tellers, or in the immigration work around the country, help count the number of people, calculate the cost of settling.

The vacuum of the power sector, coupled with a huge amount of supplies......

It's hard for them not to be greedy, and who can resist this temptation.

What's more, Beiping in the Great Yuan Dynasty, there has always been an old tradition of corruption, the cause of the fall of the Yuan Dynasty, the Yellow River burst its embankment to build a dam, and the disaster relief materials and money and grain sent out from Beiping were embezzled before they left the capital......

Now, it's much better.

Not only by sea, the Tongji Canal transported all kinds of materials, but also let Li Yu earn a lot of money, the Great Yuan Emperor Kublai Khan to build the Grand Canal, rebuild the Tongji Canal, etc., so that the Yuan Dynasty emperor behind him enjoyed nearly a hundred years, to this day, the Ming Dynasty has been renovated many times, and the Tongji Canal can still be used.

At first, Li Yu had to be corrupt, because the family was old and young, just wives and concubines, and children, there were seven or eight children, counting his parents and the elderly in the family, there must be more than ten families.

And that's not even counting the men.

The servants sent by him in the official office were all his domestic slaves or hired, and this was more than ten people, and then counting the palanquin driver, groom, porter, old mother, buy firewood every month, grain and rice silver money, a month, not to mention two silver dollars.

These two dollars are still a little bit of money.

If you don't save some money, then you will have to pay three or five yuan, which is equivalent to two and a half taels of silver.

In addition to ushering in, the reception is favored.

Living in Beiping, Yulu could barely survive, and had to be posted upside down.

Not to mention, it is extremely cold in Beiping in winter.

In the winter of Beiping, because of the influence of the Jurchen and Jin people, there are also kangs, but more of them are fire pits, if there are many people at home, they must prepare firewood every day, if the silver money is enough, you can also buy coal from Shanxi, as well as charcoal pulled by the Mentougou generation.

This had to make Li Yu, Zhao Quande and others make up their minds in other places, and after embezzlement for a few years, they didn't do much......

After all, that's how everyone plays.

Before, Li Yu didn't realize it, because these officials basically checked up and down, communicated with each other, and Guo Heng, the household servant, was also related to them, as long as they couldn't get the account book to verify, their corruption would never be thunderous.

It's just that it appears on this one.

The crown prince Zhu Biao sat on a high seat, and below him were kneeling several corrupt officials who had been dealt with.

These officials are neither big nor small, but they are all Li Yu's subordinates, and most of the charges are corruption and people's fat, Li Yu and Zhao Quande listened to Zhu Biao slapping Tang Mu inside, and they were so frightened that they trembled, there was no way, Zhu Yuanzhang, the son of Hongwu, was too strong to deal with corruption.

Peeling and pulling grass is not to be feared, it is a big deal.

Wives and children are old and young, men are in the army, and women are assigned to teach the workshop as official prostitutes.

Generations of slavery......

And future generations will never be able to participate in the imperial examinations, etc.

The two were thinking about it in their hearts, but when they saw Zheng He coming, they announced that the two of them went to meet them.

"Two adults, please."

Li Yu took a deep breath, he was sweating profusely, stretched out his sleeve to wipe the sweat on his forehead, lowered his head and glanced at Zhao Quande, he didn't want to go in, but Zhou Kuan and Zheng He, one left and one right, had already put the two of them in.

"Chen Beiping Cheng announced the political envoy Li Yu."

"Chen Beiping was sentenced according to the prosecutor Zhao Quande......"

"Meet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, His Royal Highness the Eldest Grandson!"

As soon as the two entered, they knelt directly on the ground, and they didn't dare to breathe.

The few corrupt officials and corrupt officials who were disposed of around were all under the hands of the two of them.

As the directors of two of the three highest divisions of the Ming Dynasty, the two of them know very well what will happen if their case is released, and they only feel like ashes at this moment.

"You two, look up."

Prince Zhu Biao's face was solemn, he had dealt with more than a dozen corrupt officials one after another, all of whom were under these two people, and the reason why he finally dealt with the two of them was because among the two people who were handed over by Zhu Xiongying, he was the most corrupt.

One pile at a time, one by one, it is difficult to write......

Although there is no act of carelessness for human life, just greedy for military rations, this is enough for them to kill several times.

As soon as Li Yu raised his head, he said sadly and indignantly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, the minister, the minister wants to report and prosecute Zhao Quande, the prosecutor, for corruption and bending the law, and accepting bribes!" ”

"You!"

Zhao Quande was also worried, and he was furious when he heard the words at this moment.

The two of them immediately tore apart and attacked each other.

"Enough!"

Zhu Biao slapped the startled wood angrily, and Xu Da, Li Jinglong, and Chang Mao, who were sitting on the side, were all full of anger, and the things that these two people embezzled were all things that were in short supply for the soldiers of the frontier guards, such as cotton clothes and cotton shoes.

They sold cotton clothes and shoes, after corruption, to the Northern Yuan capital enemy.

He also used military ships to transport grain and wages, secretly carrying tea, silk, and salt, and sold them to the Mongols in the Northern Yuan Dynasty.

This crime is tantamount to treason.

If it is according to the usual, the Ming law will punish and the whole family will be confiscated.

At this moment, Zhu Biao suppressed his anger on his face, took a deep breath and said: "You two, explain what you have done, this prince will give you a good time, if you still prevaricate and frame each other, it will be to peel the skin and grass, and the whole family will copy it!" ”

When the two of them heard this, especially Zhao Quande, the procurator of the prosecution, hurriedly said that he was in charge of the punishment in Beiping, and naturally knew what kind of capital punishment corruption would be imposed.

At first, the two of them were still stumbling and unwilling to explain honestly.

Zhu Xiongying snorted coldly.

Instructed Ziying to take the information of the National Security Division and let Zheng He read it out on the spot.

"On the 14th day of the seventh month of the 15th year of Hongwu, 700 stone of military rations were collected and 200 stone were swallowed."

"On the New Year's Day of the sixteenth year of Hongwu, the Ministry of Receipts, the Ministry of Rites, Dali Temple...... Seven hundred and fifty-five pieces of treasure money. ”

"In February of the seventeenth year of Hongwu, I received five taels of gold from the powerful landlord of Yandi, and fifty yuan of treasure money!"

One by one, one by one, it was more detailed than what they remembered, after all, there were some of them that were accepted by their family members, and they only heard that the two of them were trembling, trembling, and sweating profusely.

At this time, Li Yu and Zhao Quande, who were already frightened, poured beans into the bamboo tube, and hurriedly said what they had and what they didn't.

Piggybacking, he also took a bite of the navigation Hou Zhang He and Jinghai Hou Wu Zhong......

Several high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Officials did not say less.

The more Zhu Biao listened, the more ugly his face became.

"That's it!"

Zhu Biao patted the startled wood angrily.

"You two are lucky, the queen is not in good health, and it is not suitable to kill people on the birthday of King Yan!"

"Sentence the two of you to be demoted to the local official prefect, now there are more than 30,000 people in Beijing who have surrendered to the Mongolian tribe, and you two will each choose 15,000 people, set off from Beijing, flow 3,000 miles, and punish three generations to fight the border."

"You and the other two subordinates, there are many people who are greedy for ink, and they are also demoted to local officials, governors, counties, Tongzhi, judges, and the whole family will be punished!"

"If it were usual, you would be a big sin of peeling and pulling grass for the whole family."

"Now I want to maintain my health, hum, you guys, it's time to catch up!"

"Do you want to go to Yunnan or Gansu, choose one yourself!"
