Military pay is a top priority for the military.

Embezzling military pay, if the problem is not easily exposed in peacetime, will cause big problems once a war is needed. The kings of the Jiubian Domain basically dare not do anything with the military pay, but Ning Wang Zhu Quan is really brave and dares to take action against the military pay.

Only 70% of the military pay was left in the hands of the soldiers.

That 70% is still procrastinating, and the situation is serious.

However, Zhu Quan was not completely crazy. He only embezzled 30%, not even 50%. He was probably afraid that if he embezzled too much, the border troops would cause unrest, etc.

No matter how much you embezzle, as long as you do this, there is something wrong and it is illegal.

The situation is a hundred times more serious than what those honorable men did.

The civil servants in the court who opposed the generals also frowned when they heard this. They were opposed to the generals, but they did not oppose the soldiers on the border who protected the Ming Dynasty. They did not expect that King Ning would dare to do this.

Shen Qian continued: "Under the command of King Ning, there are three Duoyan guards, who are his personal soldiers. The military salary that King Ning embezzles is only for the rest of the guards. He does not embezzle a single coin for his personal soldiers, Duoyan's three guards, etc. The favor given is quite a lot.”

As soon as these words came out, everyone took a breath of cold air.

Once he was defeated, he was worried that he would not survive because those feudal kings were ruthless.

Now that the overall situation has been decided, they are still unwilling to do something.

After saying what needed to be said, Shen Qian stood below, and Xie Sheng also stood silently, waiting for Zhu Xuan's response.

Yesterday when he was preparing the evidence for today's impeachment, Zhu Xuan asked Jin Yiwei to bring this piece of evidence to him, and clearly requested that the military pay be revealed when impeaching him.

After Shen Qian finished speaking, she felt beads of sweat on her forehead, but he really dared to say it because Zhu Xuan asked him to say it and got Zhu Xuan's guarantee.

"Uncle Seventeen guards the border and has great military exploits. If you dare to slander Uncle Seventeen, do you know how serious your crime will be?"

What Zhu Quan did was almost a rebellion. He squandered the military pay of the soldiers in the imperial guard station, but all his own soldiers were supported normally, and he used the military pay from the guard station to support his own soldiers.

I was thinking to myself, Your Highness would be better off crossing the bridge to draw a stick.

Zhu Xuan pretended to be angry, as if I didn't believe that Zhu Quan would embezzle military pay.

After Zhu Xuan was angry, he sneered and decided to make the matter public and asked Jin Yiwei to give it to Shen Qian and ask her to raise it in the court. He wanted to see the reaction of the feudal kings and make the beating more serious. .

Zhu Quan did this obviously to cause his own rebellion in the future.

Shen Qian really dares to say it!
You must know that Lao Zhu has set the rules and cannot sow discord between the feudal lords. This is a capital crime.

"Shen Qian, you say that, do you have any evidence?"

The other ministers were all quiet, and no one dared to express any opinions on this matter. However, when the generals heard that Zhu Quan dared to embezzle military pay, they were all angry. They were the ones leading the troops, so of course they knew how much military pay was. important.

Zhu Quan's actions, if taken one step further, would be rebellion!
It will also force the border troops to mutiny!
"Plundering military pay?"

It was the content of the special telegram sent by Jinyiwei yesterday. When he saw this information, Zhu Xuan was of course very angry, but his anger was quickly suppressed by him, and then he thought of the alliance of vassals brought back by Zhu Youyi. New list.

Those imperial uncles were indeed not peaceful people.

Zhu Xuan only found out about this yesterday.

This is not raising personal soldiers, but raising private soldiers.

Shen Qian refused at first, but after Zhu Xuan assured her that there would be no problem, she dared to say it in court.

Despite this, he still felt cold in his hands and feet and uneasy all over.

Shen Qian looked sure and said very solemnly: "I have some friendship with the border army general in Liaodong. He told me these things and also listed a detailed evidence and sent it back to me. Please take a look at it, Your Highness.”

After speaking, he took out a piece of evidence from his body and raised his hands high.

When the other ministers saw this, the expressions on their faces suddenly became wonderful.

Shen Qian still came prepared and had definite evidence, so what Zhu Quan did seemed to be true. The incident that was originally aimed at nobles has now become aimed at the feudal king.

It gets even more exciting.

Hou Xian went down and brought up the evidence.

Before Zhu Xuan finished reading, he made a dark face. The expression on his face was so gloomy that it made the ministers feel as if they had seen Zhu Yuanzhang when he was about to kill someone.

"Hou Xian, send it down and show it to other ministers."

Zhu Xuan sneered and said: "My seventeenth uncle dared to steal the military salary, haha..."

Hou Xian quickly sent this evidence to others.

Zhu Xuan did not dare to make the matter of the vassal alliance public for fear that Lao Zhu would not be able to bear the excitement, but he was not afraid of embezzling military pay to support private soldiers.

Zhu Quan should have done this kind of thing more than once and a half. Zhu Yuanzhang must have known something about it, but he didn't do it too much before. Considering the special nature of the border area, Zhu Quan didn't do anything, but now he did it even more .

Then mention it separately as a typical case.

The evidence is sent down and circulated to other ministers.

The civil servants didn't say anything after reading it, while the generals just yelled and cursed in a low voice.

No one knows better than them how serious the deduction of military pay is. Fortunately, it is only a 30% deduction. Otherwise, the border troops will not have enough to eat, cannot get money, and may rebel.

Military generals know how to lead troops, and no one understands the importance of this better than them.

"What do you think?"

"Do you think this evidence is true?"

Zhu Xuan said again.

Zheng Ci first stepped forward and said: "Back to Your Highness, the evidence seems to be true, but His Highness Prince Ning has a special status. I suggest that we investigate clearly before making further decisions. If we rely solely on this piece of evidence to make a decision, I'm afraid it will bring trouble." What's the trouble?"

Zhu Xuan nodded slightly and said: "You are right. It really needs to be investigated carefully. Except for the matter of Uncle Seventeen, the matters of other vassal princes are equally serious! The vassal prince not only dared to do things that the nobles dared to do, but also did More exaggerated, right?”

"Correct!"

Zheng Ci had no choice but to bite the bullet and respond.

"The vassal king should have defended the Ming Dynasty."

"But now they only know how to harm the Ming Dynasty and harm the people."

"If it weren't for Shen Qian and Xie Sheng, I wouldn't have known that the vassal king would dare to act so randomly."

"What do you think we should do?"

Zhu Xuan's eyes were on them, scanning them.

In fact, he didn't hope to get any results from them. He just wanted to raise this matter on an occasion to let everyone know how serious the feudal king's problem was.

Especially what happened with Zhu Quan is really similar to a rebellion.

Neither civil servants nor military officers dared to make suggestions at this time.

Shen Qian and Xie Sheng wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and stood silent. After today, they had completely offended the feudal king.

However, if you can get Zhu Xuan's attention, just offend if you offend!

Everything else is no longer important. As long as Zhu Xuan is happy and can remember his contribution, that's enough.

They will be bound to Zhu Xuan in the future. Zhu Xuan is the next emperor, and they are willing to be bound. (End of chapter)
