"Got it all figured out?"

Or the slightly simple bamboo house, Zhu Zhanyan looked at his guards and asked.

This is not Zhu Ling, but another of his guards.

"It's all checked, all the results are here." Zhu Ping lowered his head and presented the results of his investigation in the past few days to Zhu Zhanyan.

"Well, you go and rest first." Zhu Zhanyan nodded and took the things in Zhu Ping's hand, but he didn't look at it.

He needed it before, but now he's not in such a hurry.

Is Lu Hong's death really Zhu Zhanqi's wanton behavior?

Zhou Xin thinks so, Lu Xiude thinks so, and the big and small officials in Hangzhou who receive the news think so.

This is exactly what Zhu Zhanyan wants to achieve.

In the same way, that is to say, this is Zhu Zhanyan's purpose, not a whim.

It's not quite right to say this, because Lu Hong's incident was indeed his whim, but it just happened to coincide with one of his ideas.

That's deterrence.

The information sent by Zhu Ping was the black material of officials of Yangzhou Prefecture, Jiaxing Prefecture and Songjiang Prefecture, and Zhu Zhanyan originally wanted to use this to deter these magistrates and prevent them from stabbing himself.

You must know that the current Jiangnan is not the Jiangnan of the Han and Tang dynasties.

During the Han and Tang dynasties, Jiangnan was an undeveloped wilderness, and although the current Jiangnan is not yet a complete land of fish and rice, it is not far behind, and it is one of the important granaries of the Ming Dynasty.

This year, this big granary was first looted by the Japanese and then conscripted, and the space for operation is very large, and Zhu Zhanyan has been preventing this for a long time.

But officials are not his main target for prevention, but they are the most important joints.

If the joint is broken, then naturally it will not be able to move, and Zhu Zhanyan's purpose will be achieved.

What else in the world needs to be guarded against more than corrupt officials? Or should it be said that they can be on an equal footing with corrupt officials in terms of harmfulness?

There may be many, but the most well-known one is probably only one group: merchants.

In the feudal era, there were not many merchants who could be remembered by history, because the social status of merchants in the feudal era was quite low, which led to them basically not being recorded in history.

There are generally only three types of officials who can go down in history: profiteers who are harmful to a certain extent, righteous businessmen who are committed to the country and the people, and ......

A traitor who fornicates with a foreign enemy!

And what Zhu Zhanyan really wants to guard against is the last kind of person, the official is the umbrella and partner of these traitors dressed in the skin of businessmen.

Zhu Zhanyan originally wanted to use the black material in his hand to choke the necks of these people, but Lu Hong's appearance made him change his mind.

Sometimes blood may be more frightening to these people than to use black material.

At the same time, Ying Tianfu, the Imperial Palace, and the Qianqing Palace.

You can show that the Jinyi Guard in the middle and late dynasties is not good, but the ability of the Jinyi Guard in the Yongle period is still quite good, and it is a fairly sharp knife in the hands of the ruler.

Before it arrived for three days, Zhu Zhanyi's overall plan was checked by Jinyiwei, although there were reasons why Zhu Zhanyan never thought of concealing it, but in the end, it was Jinyiwei's outstanding ability.

"You guys found out?" Zhu Di looked at the Tiao Chen presented by Jinyiwei, and asked Ji Gang who was kneeling below in surprise.

Ji Gang, the third generation commander of Jinyiwei.

"Back to Your Majesty, according to the results of Jinyiwei's investigation, it is like this."

It's only been seven years of Yongle now, and Ji Gang is not as arrogant and domineering as he was later, in front of Zhu Di, he can only report truthfully and tremblingly, and he doesn't dare to fake for half a point.

"Good boy......" Hearing Ji Gang's affirmative answer, Zhu Di couldn't help but admire.

To be honest, at the beginning, he was just thinking about using this grandson, wanting to save his face and the face of the Zhu royal family.

But now it seems that his grandson is far better than he imagined, and he is far more thoughtful than he imagined.

Why did Jin Yiwei investigate Zhu Zhanqi, the son of the Han Dynasty? As a Jinyi guard who directly obeyed the emperor's orders, Zhu Di's order was undoubted, but the most important thing was that Zhu Di was not at ease.

A nine-year-old child, although he has received a good education from the royal family, is only nine years old anyway, and he has not yet begun to touch the most important things.

For example, the way of balance, such as the confrontation of people's hearts.

But what he didn't expect was that there were many places where he was obviously ready to stand up and clean up the mess at the end, but Zhu Zhanyan took them all into account.

For example, those corrupt officials who will definitely not be able to bear it in this situation.

For example, profiteers who are in cahoots with corrupt officials.

Another example is the fornication of those merchants.

After a long time, Zhu Di sighed: "Just clean up what should be cleaned up, it's useless to keep it any longer." ”

"Wechen understands!" Ji Gang's heart sank, and he bowed his head and accepted Zhu Di's order.

You must know that Zhu Di's simple sentence means that many people will pay for their lives, and the first to bear the brunt is the southeast maritime merchants who fornicate with the Japanese.

That's right, when it comes to traitors in the Ming Dynasty, it must not escape two merchant groups.

One is the famous Jin merchants, although they did not contribute to the entry of the Manchu Dynasty, but they accounted for at least half of the "credit" in this.

The second is the people that Zhu Di told Ji Gang, this merchant group is called Southeast Sea Merchants.

In the end, the Ming Dynasty was harassed by the Japanese Rebellion, which was due to the fact that the Ming Dynasty was subject to the grassland, Annan and Guanxi Qiwei had no time to clean them up, but it was even more inseparable from the southeast maritime merchants to report to the Japanese Invaders.

Once the Japanese invaded, the people along the coast would suffer a heavy blow, and the merchants would be able to sell the grain they had hoarded at a high price to make a profit.

In Zhu Di's original expectation, Zhu Zhanyan, a nine-year-old child, was just impulsive, and the immature child must be full of loopholes in the layout, and he can order the net to be closed at that time.

At that time, both the southeastern maritime merchants who colluded with the Japanese and the corrupt officials who colluded with the southeastern maritime merchants will be wiped out.

But now, because Zhu Zhanyan thought about it perfectly, Zhu Di's plan fell through.

In such a situation, there will definitely be a lot of fish that slip through the net, but Zhu Di is not angry or disappointed, but full of joy.

Because in his opinion, an outstanding talent is far more important than harvesting a few corrupt officials, corrupt officials, profiteers, and wealthy businessmen.

It's just that at this time, Zhu Zhanyan didn't know that his careful plan caused the old man's plan to go bankrupt.

Now Zhu Zhanyan is very annoying, irritable to the extreme.

These reasons for his irritability were partly due to his identity, and partly to his careful planning.

In contrast, the latter accounts for a greater proportion.
