Chapter 72: Lao Zhu was angry and asked Zhang Tianshi

 Guo Heng was dumbfounded on the spot.

The report to the morning was fine just now, but in just a moment, he was finished, and the whole family was finished.

He even forgot to cry out that he was wronged and was immediately taken away.

Li Shanchang picked up the book Zhu Yuanzhang had thrown down from the ground, opened it and read it.

It contains all the transaction details about the Ministry of Revenue’s preparation of disaster relief materials in the past few days, as well as the dialogue between officials under the Ministry of Revenue and the cooperation with grain merchants.

What you buy at the price of japonica rice is brown rice.

Merchants also asked the Ministry of Household Affairs to help spread the news about food shortages.

Guo Heng does not appear in this booklet, but he is almost the most innocent one.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that those who are doing things are all Guo Heng’s confidants.

Mao Xiang's people even recorded in detail the conversations they had with each other, every sentence and word at a certain time.

A chill ran down Li Shanchang's back, and he glanced at Mao Xiang with a frown.

Mao Xiang stood in an inconspicuous corner of the court, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

"Mr. Korea?" An official next to him looked at Li Shanchang with questioning eyes, wanting to know what was written in the booklet.

Li Shan let out a long sigh, handed it to others, then closed his eyes slightly without saying a word.

The brochure was circulated among the officials, and all of them could not help but feel trembling.

Mao Xiang's people are so in-depth and understand the speeches of so many officials in the Ministry of Revenue, so they can also understand them.

Whenever there is a mistake in words, it will reach Zhu Yuanzhang’s ears the next moment.

"They dare to tamper with the disaster relief materials, pass them off as good quality, and raise the price." Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the court officials and said with a cold tone, "There are fifty-two people in the household department and twenty-three merchants here. Humph, in

It’s outrageous to dare to do this right under our noses.”

A sound like thunder echoed in Fengtian Hall.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

Under the leadership of Li Shanchang, all the ministers knelt down.

Zhu Biao took the booklet from an official's hand and read it with red eyes.

Now the Wuchang Prefecture is anxiously waiting for the court's support, but the Ministry of Revenue has secretly cooperated with merchants to change brown rice into Japonica rice and raise the price by 30%. Once the preparations are completed, everyone can get a rebate.

Guo Hengzai had full control over the preparation of supplies, which indeed revealed his greedy side.

I thought it was watertight, and as long as the food supplies were transported away, it would be safe. When we arrived at Wuchang Prefecture, and there were free supplies from the court, who would care about japonica rice or brown rice.

"Do you think our eyes are dazzled and the knife is not sharp?" Zhu Yuanzhang's anger was still burning. "From today onwards, anyone who takes bribes and talks about things over money will be executed in a hurry; those who steal and sell grain in the warehouse will have ink tattoos on their faces, and have their muscles and knees removed; officials and businessmen

Those who collude to take action against disaster relief supplies are a clan!"

After a pause, he looked at the officials below and added: "From today on, everyone, regardless of their fame or fame, must pay taxes, without exception."

After arresting Guo Heng, he promulgated some laws and conveniently lifted the Shilin privilege of not paying taxes mentioned by Zhang Feng.

After arresting and killing Guo Heng, other officials who had no connection were still feeling happy.

But without the Shilin privileges, everyone in the court was stunned.

This is closely related to them. Each one of them scolded Guo Heng eighteen times in his heart. Damn it, one person has caused so many harms!

Now that Zhu Yuanzhang is still angry, no one dares to oppose him.

"Hmph, if anyone wants to continue, you can come and give it a try."

Zhu Yuanzhang rolled his sleeves and left, not wanting to see the ministers in the court again.

Mao Xiang looked indifferent and followed Zhu Yuanzhang away.

"Brother?" Zhu Di and Zhu Fan came to Zhu Biao's side.

They haven't seen Zhu Yuanzhang so angry for a long time. Today, first about Li Wenzhong, and then after seeing what Hu Bu did, they were really angry.

"Follow your father and visit your mother."

Zhu Biao stepped out immediately.

Zhu Di and Zhu Fan also followed after hearing this.

Zhu Xi looked around and saw that the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty were beside him, and there were many people looking at him. He seemed very out of place here.

"Eldest brother, third brother, fourth brother." Zhu Ping ran up and shouted: "Wait for me!"

Once Zhu Yuanzhang and several princes left, only the civil and military officials of the Fengtian Palace were left.

Xu Da and Tang He looked at each other, and Tang He even yawned. Corrupt officials will be killed as soon as they are killed. They are all rolled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. These are not a big deal.

"Guo Shangshu, Guo Shangshu, your subordinates have done a good job!"

Tang He joked, ignored the embarrassed Guo Yundao, held out his general belly, and left with Xu Da while talking and laughing.

Guo Yundao's palms were sweaty and he was trembling while holding the Chao Hut.

This time, if I have anything to do with it, I will be doomed.

"Guo Shangshu..." Other officials also came over and called Guo Yundao.

Guo Yundao came to his senses and said repeatedly: "Ashamed, ashamed."

No one talked about his poor governance.

Everyone sighed repeatedly, not knowing whether they felt sad for Guo Heng or sad that the privileges of being a scholar had been revoked.

Li Shanchang exhaled slightly, lowered his head and walked out.

After leaving Fengtian Hall, I looked up and saw rows of white clouds in the sky. The sunlight was weak and the chill was deep into my bones.

The ministers came out later, and some people couldn't help but approached Li Shanchang and said in a questioning tone: "Mr. Han, is your Majesty today?"

Li Shanchang shook his head, lowered his eyes, and said softly: "It's getting cold!"

After saying these three words, Li Shanchang stopped talking and walked away.

……

Kunning Palace.

Zhu Yuanzhang returned to Queen Ma again.

Queen Ma woke up from coughing in the middle of her sleep.

Chen Junzuo served Queen Ma and drank a dose of medicine, but the effect was not good, and Queen Ma was still in serious condition.

"How's it going?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was extremely worried when he saw Empress Ma's poor expression.

Chen Junzuo frowned and said: "Your Majesty, if I give the Queen another dose of medicine, I will definitely not let anything happen to the Queen."

When Queen Ma saw Zhu Yuanzhang and her children arriving, she wanted to get up, but found that she had no strength at all, and her joints were still in great pain. Swallowing her saliva was like swallowing a razor blade, and she couldn't help but cough violently again.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao rushed forward.

Chen Junzuo looked heartbroken. At this moment, he was constantly thinking of various prescriptions. If it didn't work, he would have to use Daqinglong Decoction. Daqinglong Decoction heavily uses ephedra. It has a strong medicinal effect, but it can also cause serious harm to the body and even cause severe pain.

If you fail to control the power of the medicine, it will become more dangerous.

"Chen Junzuo, can you do it? Can you be cured? If you can't replace me, what's the use of you?"

Zhu Ping stepped forward and grabbed Chen Junzuo, but Chen Junzuo was too fat. Zhu Ping couldn't catch him at all, and he couldn't pull him even hard.

"Chang'er, cough cough..."

When Empress Ma saw that Zhu Xi was about to attack Chen Junzuo, she wanted to stop him, but she kept coughing.

"Let go." Zhu Yuanzhang glared over, "Asshole, let Dr. Chen prescribe the medicine."
