However, Li Wei obviously did it on purpose, and Zhu Biao didn't bother to bother with him.

"Suppose ten officials and nine are greedy, then the question is, now you can't find out which of these ten is a good official, what should you do? If you don't kill them all, even if there is only one left, this one is also very likely to be a corrupt official, then this one corrupt official can harm more than one or two people, in order to save this one clean official, put tens of millions of people in danger and suffering, prince, do you think this is merciful or cruel? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly said coldly: "So only by killing them all, can you just in case!" To punish corrupt officials, we must have this determination! ”

Li Wei glanced at him, in fact, this statement is a bit extreme, although it is not easy to find out, but some easy to check still have to be checked, if there is less greed, the ability is not bad, it is not necessary to kill everything, in short, it is to measure the gains and losses first, and moral rights and wrongs should be put last.

He gave this example just to explain this truth to Zhu Biao, and in reality it depends on the situation, just like the loopholes in the example he just cited, sometimes it can be turned to the other side.

After listening to these words, Zhu Biao fell into silence, which is very different from the Confucian education he received, in this case, people cannot be merciful, and must make a decisive choice, just like Li Wei said, the car is still speeding, and it does not give people time to hesitate at all, and hesitation will only harm everyone.

Thinking of this, he suddenly felt dull, and even began to doubt whether he could become a qualified emperor in the future, originally he was full of confidence in this, and even felt that he would do better than his father, but now his confidence was shaken!

"It's just that the imperial court is already understaffed, so won't there be no one available in the end if you kill it like this?"

Zhu Biao was helpless, and no longer debated the question of whether to kill or not to kill and whether to be benevolent, but worried about reality from reality.

Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned, this is indeed a problem, Hong Yi was driven away by him under the pretext of incompetence and dereliction of duty, and he could not make up for the vacancy in time, and now Hong Yi is gone, but this problem is still not solved, but it is more serious.

Li Wei suddenly thought of a Ming Dynasty wonder that he had heard about in later generations, but he didn't know whether to say it or not.

This spectacle is that the official Dai flail handles the case, and now Zhu Yuanzhang has not started to kill on a large scale, so he has not used the strange method of Dai Death Crime.

In the early Ming Dynasty, the four major cases, Hu Weiyong's case has not evolved into a major case involving tens of thousands of people, Guo Huan's case has not happened, the Lanyu case is even farther, only the empty seal case has already happened, but in fact, Zhu Yuanzhang did not kill many people in the empty seal case, only the main seal official was all beheaded, and everyone else stayed, the total number of people implicated was only a thousand, and the beheaded person was only a few hundred, but the total number of Ming officials was only 20,000, and 1,000 people accounted for 5 percent, which is already very serious!

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that he was hesitant, and immediately knew that this kid had an idea: "What can you do, say it!" ”

Li Wei hesitated for a moment, but still said: "I don't think it's really good, I can let some people who are less greedy and have less crimes to do things in flail, and then punish them when someone is absent." ”

Zhu Biao's face was full of consternation, this is too bad!

Zhu Yuanzhang was very surprised, and said with a smile: "This method is good, hehe, just do it!" ”

"Father, the son thinks it's inappropriate!" Zhu Biao said and turned to Li Wei again: "Lord Li, don't you know that you can't be humiliated if you can kill a soldier!" Even if you want them to wear a sin and work together, you don't have to use such an insulting way as wearing a flail! ”

Li Wei was stunned, indeed, he just thought about the spectacle, so he said it casually, in fact, this is all a strange method that Zhu Yuanzhang came up with, and it is completely unnecessary.

"What soldiers can be killed but not humiliated, that is their own humiliation, we think this is very good, and it also saves them from absconding in fear of crime!"

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care so much, and directly made a final decision.

When Zhu Biao heard this, he stared at Li Wei's gaze and became even more angry!

"Well, that, I think these people can give them a chance to make meritorious contributions, and if they behave well during the period of doing things, they can reduce the punishment a little, which can also play a role in encouraging, lest they break the jar and delay the political affairs."

Facing Zhu Biao's angry gaze, Li Wei hurriedly found a way to make up for it.

Zhu Biao's attitude improved after hearing this, and said: "Father, the son thinks it's okay!" ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly, what Li Wei said also made some sense, when it comes to messing around, this stinky boy is the best at it.

After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang also took a step back and agreed to this condition, anyway, the reduction of punishment is not innocent, at least it will be in vain.

"Biao'er, this matter will be handed over to you, you will check the charges of these people, and how to deal with them will write a notebook for us and hand it over."

If this matter is handed over to Li Wei, it will definitely offend another wave of people, but it will be different if it is handed over to Zhu Biao, although the result of punishment is the same, but their father and son have a tacit understanding and can turn this matter into a satisfactory result for the ministers.

"Yes, my son obeys."

Zhu Biao breathed a sigh of relief, such a result was already the best result he could get.

After arranging these things, Zhu Yuanzhang threw an appreciative look at Li Wei, I didn't expect this kid to see things quite clearly, but he didn't care about these things, and he still didn't clean them up!

Then he remembered Fan Min's words when he went crazy, and couldn't help but sigh and sigh:

"Hey, it's hard to be a king, it's hard to be a minister, it's hard to be a minister! Although Fan Min is a bastard, what he said is not unreasonable, how can these scholars cultivated by the family really put loyalty and patriotism in front of the interests of the family! ”

Li Wei listened to him complaining, and couldn't help but move in his heart, he was trying to set up a school to teach students, if he could fool Zhu Yuanzhang into giving money to run a school, it would be great!

"Yes, Your Majesty, I don't think it's better for you to run your own school, I just want to teach some students, and then you can add some money to me, and I will be a teacher or something."

Li Wei flickered and said, although he is not surnamed Ma, he also wants to be a good teacher who only takes a few dozen yuan, and Yu Lu is secondary, anyway, he does not lack that money.

During this time working in the Ordnance Bureau, he obviously felt that he was powerless, there were too many things to do, and he couldn't be busy on his own, if he could teach a group of students to help, it would be the best!

Zhu Yuanzhang also moved in his heart when he heard this, he knew that this kid's knowledge of later generations was very powerful, and it would undoubtedly be a great thing if he could teach him a group of usable students.

"Do you want to teach students? This is simple, we have a ready-made national school, you can teach it directly. ”

He attaches great importance to education from the beginning of the founding of the country, and changed the Yingtian School to Guozixue as early as possible, and in the eighth year of Hongwu, he also built the Zhongdu Guozijian in Fengyang, and in the past two years, he also intends to expand the Guozijian of Yingtian again into the real Guozijian of the Ming Dynasty.

Li Wei pursed his lips when he heard this, and decisively refused: "Don't go!" ”

"Huh? Why? Zhu Yuanzhang frowned and wondered.

"I don't want the students in your country, education should start from the baby! I want to build a new school for the children, teach them for free, and preferably provide room and board. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, education should start from the baby, this sentence is very good, if the child receives the country's education from an early age, then the success of learning is naturally to be grateful to the country, loyal to the country, although it is inevitable to be tied by blood and family, but it is definitely much more loyal and reliable than the scholars trained by these families now!
