Daming: Old Zhu, we agreed not to rush!

Chapter 132 Can Old Zhu Be So Kind?
Liu Zhaoxiang, Liu Jiasheng and his son left the Water Transportation Department and returned home.

Naturally, their whereabouts were clearly recorded by the guards.

that night.

Then a few men in black appeared in Liu's residence.

Needless to say, this is exactly the person sent by Zhou Limin.

Liu Zhaoxiang was extremely vigilant and did not fall asleep. At this moment, he realized that something was wrong and immediately got up and left his bedroom, intending to wake up his son Liu Jiasheng.

He's not stupid, he already guessed that maybe Zhou Limin wanted to kill someone to silence him.

However, as soon as he went out, he saw two men in black collapsed at the door of his bedroom.

This.
For a while, Liu Zhaoxiang didn't quite understand what was going on.

"Father, are you alright?"

Liu Jiasheng also ran out, seeing this scene, he also couldn't understand it.

"Jiasheng, I'm fine."

Liu Zhaoxiang replied, just as he was about to check on the fallen men in black, several figures appeared.

"Liu Zhaoxiang, Liu Jiasheng."

Zhu Biao walked out slowly, looking at the two of them indifferently.

Behind Zhu Biao, there is a group of Gongwei Lang with swords waiting.

"You are the one who was with Su that day."

Despite the dim moonlight, Liu Zhaoxiang recognized Zhu Biao at a glance.

But the next second, when he took a closer look at those Gongweilang, he knew something was wrong.

Guards with swords, uniform costumes.

Ordinary people are not treated like this.

"Liu Zhaoxiang, you should have nothing to argue about the joint collusion between you and the water transport envoy Zhou Limin to embezzle the imperial court's disaster relief food."

Zhu Biao said coldly.

When Liu Zhaoxiang heard this, he immediately understood.

It turns out that there are people from the imperial court beside Su Jing, and what he did has long been targeted.

No wonder I am not Su Jing's opponent, this round of defeat is not injustice.

It's ridiculous, I thought I could deal with Su Jing, but it turns out that I have already stepped into the gate of hell.

If he had known this would happen earlier, it would have been better not to have this idea in the first place.

"It's ridiculous!"

Liu Zhaoxiang laughed and said, "It's really ridiculous!"

Liu Jiasheng on the side also realized that the Liu family was over.

He slumped on the ground powerlessly, only feeling that the ups and downs of this life were really too fast.

"Liu Zhaoxiang, can you plead guilty?"

Zhu Biao completely ignored Liu Zhaoxiang's madness, and just continued to ask.

"Grassman Liu Zhaoxiang pleaded guilty."

Liu Zhaoxiang no longer had any intention of resisting.

Zhou Limin has already sent killers to silence him, no matter what, he has no way out.

That being the case, if you confess, you can at least drag Zhou Limin into the water.

If you want me to die, then you don't want to live either.

"Okay, then take it away."

Zhu Biao said lightly, he didn't have much to say about Liu Zhaoxiang.

In fact, he wanted to look at it again, but when he learned that the other party was going to be interested in the disaster relief food for the victims, Zhu Biao couldn't help it.

These people are already insane.

On the side of the Water Transportation Department, heavy troops directly surrounded it, and no one was allowed to go out.

Zhou Limin, the envoy of water transportation, was arrested and rushed to the capital immediately.

Such a big case was dealt with extremely quickly.

On the one hand, Su Jing collected all kinds of account evidence quite completely, and on the other hand, with the personal supervision of the prince Zhu Biao, no one dared to stop him.

The administrative efficiency is fast and unimpeded.

In the Forbidden City, Zhu Yuanzhang was already furious and ordered a thorough investigation.

According to the evidence and clues provided by Su Jing, there were also Zhou Limin and Liu Zhaoxiang sent by Zhu Biao.

In the entire Gyeonggi Water Transport Department, pull out the radish and bring out the mud.

Lao Zhu's guillotine was so sharp that every one of them fell to the ground.

There was a gloomy atmosphere in the whole court.

Inside the Jinluan Hall, above the court hall, Lao Zhu looked coldly at the courtiers below.

"I really didn't expect that the Water Transportation Department would be so bold. Now I really want to ask if there are any guys like them among you."

Zhu Yuanzhang said coldly that none of the officials dared to respond.

Even Prime Minister Zuo Li Shanchang dared not speak at the moment.

At the beginning, he was surprised in his heart, but only after he found out something by himself, the ins and outs of the case were already clear.

And when he learned that it was Prince Zhu Biao who investigated the case, he immediately thought of Su Jing.

Only Su Jing can make this matter into what it is now.

Although this person is not in the court hall, he is already present in the court hall.

After a serious early court, Lao Zhu returned to Fengxian Hall angrily.

Although the investigation of the case was very clear, it could not appease Lao Zhu's anger.

Corruption is what he hates the most.

Not to mention the disaster relief food, the corrupt ones were still selling stolen goods at the foot of the capital.

It's just that he didn't take him seriously.

Those harsh laws of his own have no deterrent effect at all.

This is the most fundamental reason for Lao Zhu's anger.

"Chongba, calm down. Fortunately, this matter was discovered early, and the relief food was also bought by Mr. Su."

Empress Ma came to Zhu Yuanzhang's side to comfort him.

Zhu Yuanzhang exhaled slightly to dissipate his anger, and then said:

"Hmph! A bunch of moths, if it wasn't for Biaoer, I would have been fooled this time."

Obviously, Lao Zhu still attributed the credit for this time to Zhu Biao.

After all, it was Su Jing who discovered something was wrong, but Zhu Biao was the one who actually operated it.

Empress Ma didn't argue with Lao Zhu about this, but said, "Chong Ba, what are you going to do with the food?"

The case has been clarified. Liu's Rice Shop embezzled and sold the relief food.

Then these are national assets, and it is impossible to continue to stay with Su Jing.

It's just that Su Jing bought them with a clearly marked price.

Direct confiscation?
Who will bear Su Jing's loss?
In this rice market war, Su Jing spent a huge amount of money.

If this was directly confiscated, Su Jing would have lost a large amount of money for no reason.

What about the reacquisition by the imperial court?
It is also not suitable, because the disaster relief food comes from the national treasury, which is collected from the national tax, and no money is spent.

As a result, someone should resell it, and then buy it again, which is a loss to the national treasury, and it shouldn't be at the same time.

Otherwise, someone will have a different idea.

Things seemed to be at a dead end.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned, apparently he didn't think about how to deal with this matter now.

If it was an ordinary person, Zhu Yuanzhang must have directly taken it back to the country by force. He was just a businessman, and he would not consider other things.

But Su Jing is different, he is Zhu Biao's teacher.

At the same time, the cause of this matter was not Su Jing's initiative, but for Zhu Biao.

If this is really forcibly taken back to the country, Zhu Biao's side will definitely not be able to justify it.

"Sister, do you have any ideas?"

Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to ask Queen Ma.

It is not suitable to ask other ministers about this matter. It is more appropriate for Su Jing to communicate with his own family.

Empress Ma smiled and said, "Chongba, it seems that you are really inferior to Biao'er, he has already informed me."

"As for the food, he bought all of it for the national treasury, and the money will come from the support of his prince's mansion."

Zhu Biao donated money to buy food, and he didn't need money from the treasury. The Prince's Mansion still had some financial resources.

In this way, it will be easy for Su Jing to explain, and Zhu Biao can also have a good reputation.

Of course, Zhu Biao is not for fame.

"it is good!"

Just after hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was overjoyed and said: "Biaoer's idea is really good, so let's do it like this."

"Biao'er has really grown up a lot, the handling of this matter is good!"

Lao Zhu saw the benefits of this operation at a glance, so he supported it without any hesitation.

"Chongba, you don't just want to call it a day, do you?"

Empress Ma said to Zhu Yuanzhang, obviously a little disappointed.

Old Zhu frowned, looked at Empress Ma and said, "Sister, is there anything else I haven't done?"

Empress Ma said unhappily: "Don't you want to praise Mr. Su? If it wasn't for Mr. Su, would this matter go so smoothly?"

Everything started when Su Jing paid attention to the wrong rice in Liu's rice shop.

Su Jing's contribution may not be the greatest, but it is definitely the most critical.

"It turned out to be this matter, simple."

Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile: "I decreed to give a commendation."

To say that Zhu Yuanzhang buckled, he really buckled.

Although it is a great honor for ordinary people to order a commendation, it is really a bit stingy for just a compliment.

Empress Ma glared at Old Zhu and said, "What imperial edict? Are you not afraid that Biao'er's identity will be discovered? In my opinion, it would be better to give Mr. Su a business."

"Last time you also went to my palace to see, the glass is really good to use, why don't you let this business be handed over to Mr. Su."

"Mr. Su is a businessman, so it's appropriate to introduce business. In this way, you don't have to worry about exposing the identity of the target."

It can only be said that Empress Ma is indeed delicate in this regard.

After Zhu Yuanzhang heard it, he agreed directly: "Your sister is smart, this is a good way."

Lao Zhu has seen the function of glass for mounting, and he really thinks it is very useful.

It is a normal thank you to introduce business to a businessman.

"You! You know how to say these nice things."

Queen Ma complained, but the smile on her face was real.

Lishui County.

Zhu Biao had just read Zhu Yuanzhang's letter. The content was very long, including the whole process of handling the case, and the people involved were also written in detail one by one.

Zhu Biao looked very carefully, because he really wanted to know who were the people who dared to move such thoughts.

Every name represents a human head falling to the ground.

After reading these names, Zhu Biao felt a little relieved, only feeling that he had an explanation to the people who were affected by the disaster.

Then there is the treatment plan for the disaster relief food purchased by Su Jing.

Seeing that his proposal was adopted, Zhu Biao was very happy.

He was afraid that his father, Zhu Yuanzhang, would take it back to the country without distinction.

At that time, he really doesn't know how to explain to Su Jing.

And when he saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was going to hand over the glass business in the palace to Su Jing, he was very excited.

This kind of gratitude to Su Jing is truly in line with Zhu Biao's wishes.

After Zhu Biao read it, he also immediately found Su Jing.

"Master Su, the student has good news for you."

Zhu Biao said excitedly.

Su Jing said indifferently: "Let me guess, if it is those corrupt guys, everything that should be dealt with has been dealt with."

Su Jing didn't investigate deeply about the disaster relief food, but only clarified the accounts of Liu's Rice Bank.

The rest is for Zhu Biaocha.

Therefore, Su Jing didn't know how many people were involved.

"Ah."

Zhu Biao nodded and said: "All those who participated in this corruption incident have all been punished as they should."

"Yo, that's head rolling."

Su Jing is very aware of Lao Zhu's attitude towards corruption, if this is found out, he will definitely die.

Thinking of the corruption cases he had seen in his previous life, Su Jing often felt that perhaps Lao Zhu's approach was more in line with the expectations of ordinary people.

The crime of corruption and the harm it causes are not necessarily lower than those of those who murder and set fire.

But the punishment received was not that great.

Of course, these are just Su Jing's thoughts, he has not studied the law.

This is just an opinion from an ordinary person's point of view.

"Yes, these guys should be killed!"

Zhu Biao's vicious expression flashed, and then he said: "Master Su, we have to deal with the disaster relief food."

"Oh."

Su Jing became interested and asked, "Let's listen."

Ever since she knew that the food from Liu's Rice Shop might be related to the disaster relief food, Su Jing felt troubled.

Because after the incident was exposed, the grain became national property.

I definitely can't buy and sell at will, maybe I will directly confiscate it at that time.

Thinking of Su Jing, I feel a little helpless.

Zhu Biao paused slightly and said: "Your Majesty thought that this matter has nothing to do with Master Su, so he specially asked the crown prince to pay for this batch of grain, and people will come here soon."

Ok?
Hearing this, Su Jing was taken aback.

Lao Zhu asked the prince to buy these grains?What is this operation?
Su Jing didn't have much doubt about Zhu Biao's taking the matter to Zhu Yuanzhang this time.

This kind of matter is so big, it must be Lao Zhu who will deal with it in the end.

But now the result of this treatment has surprised Su Jing very much.

I have nothing to do with this great son of heaven, can Lao Zhu be so kind?
For a moment, he looked at Zhu Biao with more surprise.

"Niu Yi."

Su Jing said suddenly, which directly startled Zhu Biao.

"Master Su, the students are here."

Zhu Biao replied.

Su Jing said with a scrutinizing gaze: "You didn't buy these grains, did you? In fact, they have already been confiscated. It's just that you didn't want me to lose money, so you said that on purpose?"

Although this batch of grain was expensive, judging from Su Jing's usual understanding of Zhu Biao, his family should be quite wealthy.

To put it bluntly, it is the money that can afford this batch of food.

Su Jing didn't want to be given this money by his apprentice, no matter how rich Zhu Biao's family was, he was only the eldest son, and it would definitely not be easy to spend so much money.

Hearing Su Jing's question, Zhu Biao was stuck for a while, and subconsciously wanted to answer no, but think about it, isn't he the prince, and it's not wrong to buy it by himself.

But if you admit it directly, with Su Jing's character, you will definitely not accept it.

"Master Su, this is a special thank you from my father, please don't refuse Master Su."

In a hurry, Zhu Biao said this directly.

Zhu Biao's father?
That uncle?

Su Jing was surprised again, that uncle who didn't like him, how could he be so kind?
