Wang Jin, who had been escorted here, hurriedly knelt down when he heard this and shouted angrily,"Don't slander me!"
"Embezzlement? I'm loyal to the country. How can I allow you to slander me like this!”
'Your Majesty, he's slandering me! I want to die to remonstrate!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Wang Jin angrily." I'll tell you later if you want to die!”
"Yang Shiqi, speak!"
Yang Shiqi flipped through the account book in front of him." I had just entered the Ministry of Revenue when Wang Jin sent someone to make things difficult for me. He asked me to check all these account books within three days!”
"Three days?" Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the thick account book and laughed coldly in his heart.
"Yes! Three days!"
"Originally, it was impossible, but fortunately, the imperial grandson taught me an advanced accounting method, and it took me three days to complete the verification!”
Li Guan couldn't stand Yang Shiqi and quickly said sarcastically,""Impossible!"
"The Ministry of Revenue usually takes a full month to complete the plan. How can you complete it in three days by yourself?”
"I already said that it was the new accounting method taught by His Highness!”
"That's not important."
"Wang Jin, you keep saying that you didn't take bribes. Then let me ask you, in the twenty-third year of Hongwu, the Chief Secretary of Huguang requested thirty thousand taels of silver to build river boats and transport rice.”
Wang Jin was speechless. How could he remember?
"I'll tell you, but there's nothing about this money in Huguang's account!”
"In June of the twenty-third year, the King of Chu succeeded to the throne. Huguang requested six hundred ships, a hundred thousand stones of grain, and a thousand bolts of cloth. Do you know about this?"
"But in Hu Guang's account book, King Chu clearly only asked for 300 ships and 40,000 dans of grain!”
"23rd year, 7th month, Jiangling Prefecture was flooded. Huguang requested for 50,000 stone of grain to guide the victims to the south.”
'However, there are records of a bumper harvest in River Tomb Manor in Huguang!'
"Whose problem is this?!"
"23rd year, September, King Jing enters the capital. Please ask for the etiquette of a vassal king ~"
"In the tenth month of the twenty-third year, the Emperor decreed that Xiangyang Prefecture reduce taxes and ordered the Ministry of Revenue to carry it out! However, Hu Guang still collected the grain, causing the people to be filled with resentment!”
"What is puzzling is that the Ministry of Revenue did not put in a single grain.”
" I want to ask, these are all a bunch of muddled accounts. This year, the Ministry of Revenue's plan actually went smoothly without any discovery!'
"Wang Jin, the heavens above, do you dare to swear that you are loyal to the emperor?”
After hearing this, Wang Jin fell to his knees dejectedly. He still remembered the flood in River Tomb Manor and Xiangyang Manor. He really couldn't remember the matter between the King of Jing and the King of Chu.
However, Yang Shiqi could actually find all these from the account book!!
This was…
This was…
More importantly, he was the one who gave this account book to Yang Shiqi to torture him. Was this considered his own sin?
When he heard the first part, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned cold and he gritted his teeth. The further he went, the more frightened he became!
His eyes flickered with endless killing intent.
"Bring us the account book ~"
His voice was cold and drawn-out, making people tremble after hearing it.
Ru Chang seemed to have sensed the arrival of the Blood Sea in advance. This Emperor was probably going to make a move!
He looked at Zhu Yunhao and then at Zhao Mian. He didn't know how many tricks Zhu Yunhao had up his sleeve, but he was sure now!
The Ministry of Revenue was definitely not his foundation. The reason why he nurtured Yang Shiqi and even gave him the advanced accounting method was to clean up the Ministry of Revenue so that he could seize it later.
Could it be that he had set up this trap from the moment he chose Yang Shiqi?
Ru Chang sighed with emotion. Her thoughts were deep and her eyes were far-sighted. Her attacks were ruthless and steady. She was really swift and decisive.
Zhu Yuanzhang flipped through the account book and found that it was indeed eye-catching. The income and expenditure of the Ministry of Revenue, and the income and expenditure of Huguang!
Comparing the two, it was easy to see what was wrong.
There was only the rustling sound of flipping in the hall. An inexplicable dragon's might enveloped them, and everyone did not dare to breathe loudly.
"Hmph hmph ~"
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted coldly." Let alone the Ministry of Revenue and Huguang, even the Department for Purging Officials of the Ministry of Revenue can't match their own income and expenditure!"”
"What a loyal minister! What a loyal minister!”
"I couldn't tell. You have thick eyebrows and big eyes. So there's something bad behind you.”
"Why did I leave you out when I killed Guo Huan?”
"I was afraid that something would happen to the Ministry of Revenue, so I personally wrote sixteen big words: your salary, your salary, the people's fat, the people's grease, the people's easy to abuse, the heavens are hard to bully.”
"I hope I can engrave it in your hearts!”
"Now it seems that all our good intentions have come to nothing.”
The calmer Zhu Yuanzhang spoke, the more the officials from the Ministry of Revenue trembled.
"You can!"
"Just a year alone, there are more than seventy thousand taels of silver. Did it all go into your pocket?”
Wang Jin knelt on the ground and stammered, unable to say a word.
"Say it!" Zhu Yuanzhang roared like an angry dragon. At that time, the hall shook. He grabbed the account book and smashed it on Wang Jin's head!
In an instant, he was bleeding profusely!
"Usually, you flaunt your strength. Why?”
"You're not talking today? Are you mute?"
"You dog, eating my salary and finally digging my foundation!!”
"Even a dog knows how to respect its master!!”
Zhu Yuanzhang cursed. Yang Shiqi stood up and said,"Your Majesty, I still have some inside information to report!”
"Speak!"
"Before I say anything, I would like to invite Your Majesty to come to the Ministry of Revenue and have a bowl of noodles.”
The Ministry of Revenue?
Wang Jin looked at Yang Shiqi in disbelief after hearing it. He looked like a country bumpkin before.
could it
Was he pretending?
As soon as he raised his head, he saw Yang Shiqi and Zhu Yunchen's cold smiles. Wang Jin suddenly felt that he had fallen into a big trap.
His body was trembling violently.
"Noodles?"
