The messenger replied, "It depends on how much tax is stolen." But the lightest is fifty lashes. If there is an exact number of taxes that have not been paid at the end of the year, in addition to paying the taxes, the number of beatings that need to be counted according to the amount must be counted, and the sin will be punished by 80 rods. ”

Old Man Cai knelt down with a weak leg: "Your Highness forgives your sins." The villain knows his mistake and must make up for it immediately. ”

Zhu Bai's eyes swept away.

All the rich businessmen were so frightened that their legs went limp and they knelt down directly.

If you check it like this, no one will be clean.

Little Hades, sure enough, he wants both silver and life!!

Zhu Bai grinned: "Don't be nervous, everyone. This king did not rise up today to examine the taxes. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then scolded their mothers in their hearts: Don't check taxes, you say so much! It scared people to death.

Zhu Bai said: "To ensure the smooth transportation of the water, this king has just discussed with the envoy to use felons to dredge the river, and ask the soldiers of the guard to take care of the prisoners, and it will be convenient for you to transport goods." In the future, it will not flood the city if the rain is a little heavier. ”

Wang Cheng, the commander of the capital, turned his head and glared at the envoy, and almost burst into foul language: What the hell, when did it happen? How did I not know?

According to the inspector's face, he looked innocent.

Zhu Bai asked the rich merchant on the ground, "What do you think?" ”

The wealthy businessmen didn't know why Zhu Bai suddenly said this, anyway, it was right to pat himself on the back, and he hurriedly said, "Your Highness is wise." ”

"Your Highness really loves the people like a son."

"Yes. This king also thinks it's good. Zhu Bai smiled and nodded, and sighed again, "But I don't have the money to take care of the prisoners and guards' three meals a day and pay the guards' salaries." ”

Master Cai suddenly realized and hurriedly said: "The villain is willing to do his best." ”

Others also rushed to take a stand.

Now it is clear that if you don't pay the money, you will be beaten to death, and it will definitely be ruined.

Besides, if they offend Zhu Bai, in the future, the official tooth bureau will give them small shoes, and they will lose more than just a little bit.

Zhu Bai nodded: "Okay, for the sake of your good admitted." The king will let you make up for your deeds, and you will follow the tooth chief to the inside to register the amount of money to be donated, and you can go away after you have registered. Remember to hand it over to the tooth shop before tomorrow morning, otherwise this king will have to enforce the law impartially. ”

The wealthy merchants got busy and followed the tooth to the side to register.

Zhu Bai looked at Wang Cheng with a smile: "Lord Wang seems to have something to say just now. ”

Wang Cheng hurriedly bowed his hand: "No, Weichen is sent by His Royal Highness." ”

In fact, as soon as he heard Zhu Bai say "pay the guards' salaries", he suddenly lost his anger.

The guards were paid according to the income from the tuntian.

This year's floods have also damaged the grain production of Tuntian.

He can't ask for it from the rich people in the place.

Zhu Bai is tantamount to helping him raise military salaries in disguise, and he must have cooperated.

Zhu Bai said to the envoy: "In this case, then the two adults will discuss." If there are not enough prisoners, guards are needed to dredge the river, and they are paid sixty yuan per person. ”

The chiefs of several guards were secretly happy when they heard this: if this was the case, they were interested.

Even if a soldier intercepts thirty Wen on his body, it is not a lot in a month.

Zhu Bai also said: "The soldiers who come to work every day receive waist cards in the morning and in the afternoon according to the guards and laborers. It must not be led by a prefect. This matter was supervised by two people, Yachang and King Wu. so that no one can exploit it. ”

According to the envoy and the commander of the capital, he hurriedly saluted: "Got it." ”

Zhu Bai said lightly: "This king advises you to be a little more restrained. Although this king can find out, it is difficult to guarantee that others will not find out. ”

The officials present all felt weak and bowed their hands: "Weichen remember." ”

Zhu Bai called the military attachés such as the commander of the capital, the commander of the Tongzhi and the Hangzhou avant-garde, and the rear guard aside.

The military attachés didn't know what else Zhu Bai had to do with them alone, and stood nervously with his hands down.

I heard that the first-grade and second-grade officials in the court were all afraid of Zhu Bai like ghosts, and they thought it was quite ironic.

Zhu Bai is not just reincarnated well and has a good father, otherwise how could a little kid be so proud.

This will be reprimanded by Zhu Bai one by one, and they feel that they have laughed too early.

No matter who this child gives birth to, it is not a fuel-efficient lamp at home!!

Zhu Bai said: "This king has an interesting story to tell the adults. ”

The military attaches secretly exchanged glances: storytelling?

Zhu Bai looked at Wang Cheng eagerly: "This matter has a lot to do with adults." Don't you want to hear it? ”

Wang Cheng could only smile reluctantly and cope: "Weichen naturally wants to listen." Your Highness, please speak. ”

Zhu Bai: "On the road of this king, I met three ghosts pretending to be deserters from Hangzhou. ”

Hangzhou avant-garde knelt down as soon as he heard that his feet were weak: "The minister is guilty." ”

His men attacked Zhu Bai, and at worst said that it was a rebellion. At worst, it is said that the rule is not strict.

Wang Cheng was also so nervous, he didn't know what Zhu Bai was going to do.

If Zhu Bai really wanted to convict those three people, he would have handed them over just now, or directly killed them himself.

Do you want to put the Zhejiang Command Division in one pot?

Zhu Bai: "They say it's hard labor and they can't get enough to eat. However, the king felt that they were also pitiful people, so he taught them a lesson and let them go. ”

Wang Cheng stared fiercely at the top of the head of the Hangzhou avant-garde: Damn, this guy is too greedy on weekdays, and he exploits military salaries and lets soldiers do all kinds of labor to make money.

There are 20 guards under the jurisdiction of the Zhejiang Metropolitan Command Division, and the largest number of people have escaped from the Hangzhou avant-garde.

The Hangzhou avant-garde is already trembling.

Zhu Bai sighed and said, "This king knows that it is difficult to garrison troops. Adults have to live too. But don't go too far. There are too many deserters, and I am afraid that the seat of the adult will not be stable. ”

Wang Cheng's lips were numb, and he hurriedly arched his hand: "Your Highness has taught you a lesson." ”

Zhu Bai said: "This incident should not have happened to this king. Hangzhou avant-garde is under the jurisdiction of Lord Wang, and this king will not interfere. ”

Wang Cheng hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness." Zhu Bai let him solve it internally, which is equivalent to giving Hangzhou avant-garde and him a way out.

Zhu Bai said: "This king's teacher Liu Fuzi is from your Zhejiang, Qingtian. This king still has a lot of feelings for Zhejiang. If Zhejiang is not well governed, won't it make Liu Fuzi and this king sad? If you have any difficulties, you may mention them, but you must do your work well. ”

Wang Cheng glanced at Zhu Bai and lowered his head again: "Yes." ”

A group of their old men were very aggrieved by a doll's training, but what this doll said was reasonable, so that people couldn't refute it.

-----

A few days later, Zhu Hu's original housekeeper was escorted to the sky, and he was not qualified to be personally disposed of by Lao Zhu at his level.

But Lao Zhu was too angry, and ordered the two tigers, and the housekeeper was escorted into the palace as soon as he arrived in Yingtian.

At this time, the housekeeper knelt outside the imperial study and kowtowed desperately: "The emperor forgives the sin, the slave knows that he is wrong, and the slave no longer dares." ”

Lao Zhu took a whip, whipped it down, and gritted his teeth while smoking: "Let's ask you to be a good housekeeper for the fifth child, just because I am afraid that there will be a traitorous villain to bully the fifth child." I didn't expect you, a dog thief, to bully the fifth child by yourself. ”
