Empress Ma was shocked by Zhu Yuanzhang's power.
"You can't kill him!" she quickly advised.”
No one could be killed in the Xuzhou grain hoarding case.
If he killed him, with Zhu Yuanzhang's character, he would probably arouse the suspicion of the other officials in Xuzhou and make them feel uneasy.
This way, the impact would definitely not be small!
After Empress Ma's persuasion, Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down.
It was mainly because he had vented the anger that he had suppressed in his heart just now.
He sighed again and sat down on the chair.
How could he not know in his heart?
Empress Ma was right.
No one had expected the matter in Xuzhou to develop in an unexpected direction.
The civil and military officials in the court, including Zhu Yuanzhang himself, had thought that at least half of the officials in Xuzhou would have to die to end this corruption.
However, he did not expect things to turn around. Wang Yi gave him a big surprise.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
Zhu Yuanzhang had personally tried the case in front of all the ministers in the court.
So many people were watching.
The news had already spread, and it had even spread to other provinces.
Now that Xuzhou had such a great achievement, everyone knew about it.
As soon as they went out on the streets, they could hear people praising the officials of Xu Prefecture.
At this moment.
If Zhu Yuanzhang dared to kill him, he would be committing a great taboo.
In the past, he had killed so many corrupt officials regardless of anyone's advice. He deserved to be killed.
The hearts of the people would also be on his side.
However, if he dared to kill the officials of Xu Prefecture this time, the people would not stand on his side.
Water could carry a boat, but it could also capsize it. Zhu Yuanzhang understood this principle.
Moreover, the imperial court had not investigated this matter in advance.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned cold.
"The Guardian Division is incompetent. Zhen wants to punish them!”
It was all the fault of the Guardian Division!
It made him, the emperor, lose face.
Although he didn't hear anyone belittling him, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't bear it.
He agreed with Empress Ma.
"With such a big blunder this time, I want to compensate and promote all the officials of Xu Prefecture.”
Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang had thought things through, Empress Ma heaved a sigh of relief.
After asking the others to leave.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma continued their discussion with Meng Yin.
"This kid, I didn't expect him to have such an effect in Xu Prefecture. Zhen has really underestimated him.”
"But sooner or later, this kid will lead all the officials of Xu Prefecture astray.”
"One by one, they become big corrupt officials and small corrupt officials.”
Zhu Yuanzhang was helpless.
If the other officials were to learn from Meng Yin, they would not be able to find anything on the surface and would be so cunning that no one would be able to catch anything behind their backs.
Was he going to visit every place in Xuzhou like he did in Pei County?
At the thought of this…
Zhu Yuanzhang felt a headache.
He took a deep breath and said," This time, Zhen must transfer Meng Yin out.”
Although he admired some of Meng Yin's ideas.
He also knew that Meng Yin's talent could be used on the commoners and would definitely benefit a region.
In the end.
He still did not have any personal feelings and thought it through with the emperor's mind.
Xu Prefecture had already made such great achievements, and all the officials had unified their thinking and principles.
This was like a fire to Tian Zi, and it was hard to say if this fire would burn…
Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes.
He said with determination," We must split them up.”
Empress Ma also agreed with his point of view and said,"Yes, although Meng Yin is greedy, he is indeed a talent for governing the world.”
"Why not?"
"Why don't you transfer him to a poorer place?”
"In this way, he can be put to good use, and he will be able to move to a new environment. He won't be able to do things with acquaintances like he did in Xuzhou.”
"Maybe he'll have a headache about how to stand firm in other places.”
"Greed is even more so."
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he patted Empress Ma's hand and said happily," Empress really gave me a brilliant plan."”
"Then let me think, where is the poor place that is suitable for a person like him to display his talents?”
After thinking for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes lit up.
He said to Empress Ma," Why don't I transfer him to Fuzhou and see how he can still be greedy?”
"The Battle of Fujian has just ended and Chen Youding has been captured.”
"Fuzhou?" Empress Ma repeated.
Then, his eyes lit up.
"This idea is good. Transfer Meng Yin there!”
In the early days of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang had already issued a national policy of banning the sea.
The main reason was to prevent the pirates from entering the mainland.
The second reason was the national policy of emphasizing agriculture and suppressing commerce. Even inland merchants were severely suppressed.
Not to mention maritime trade, which was more profitable than ordinary business, was even more unacceptable in Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
This was because the merchants in the coastal areas were also richer, especially those who had originally supported Zhang Shicheng.
Zhu Yuanzhang hated them to begin with, and the ban was also to deal with those people.
On a larger scale.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's view, he wanted to make Ming a self-sufficient and powerful country that did not need to contact foreign countries.
Therefore, the first thing they needed to do was to pay attention to the agricultural economy.
This had been going on for a long time.
The scholar-bureaucrats in the coastal areas opposed such a national policy.
Unfortunately, it was useless. Gradually, many coastal areas went from prosperity to desolation.
This is especially true of Fuzhou.
At this moment, Fuzhou had become an extremely poor place.
They could only develop inland.
The local people were also poor. Fuzhou had also changed from a hot and prosperous land to a place where all the central officials could train.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled confidently.
He said to Empress Ma,"I believe that after sending Meng Yin over, he will definitely have a headache for a while."”
"If he can really solve the poverty in Fuzhou, then this one has made the right choice.”
No matter what, Zhu Yuanzhang didn't lose out.
