Liu Chun hadn't been to the palace for some days, and at first glance, he was stunned, and he found that Zhu Yuanzhang's beard and hair were almost white, and his old appearance was difficult to hide.

The last time we met, Lao Zhu said that he didn't have the strength to weed, but now that he looks at it, it's really not a joke, but a helpless fact.

Emperor Hongwu is old!

"Ahem!"

When Zhu Yuanzhang saw Liu Chun, he was still angry.

"Why, I'm ugly, aren't I?"

"No...... Your Majesty is the watch of the sky, the posture of the dragon and the phoenix! ”

"Phew!"

Lao Zhu was so angry that he smacked him, "You kid don't pat on the back, I'm too lazy to listen." I just want to ask you now, how is the case going? I gave you the brocade guard, didn't I let you beat gongs and drums all over the world and show off, how can you be like a child? ”

Liu Chunhan smiled, "Your Majesty is the father of the minister, and the minister is a child." ”

In a word, Lao Zhu couldn't keep his old face tight, so he could only sigh angrily: "Don't play treasure with me, let's talk about it, let me listen to it, what have you found?" ”

"Yes." Liu Chun said: "Your Majesty, it was not found by the minister, but Tang Yun, he made meritorious service and found something very interesting, and the minister planned to ask His Majesty to take a look." ”

Lao Zhu nodded, "Okay, let them in." ”

First of all, it was Lu Zhengduo of Yingtian Governor's Mansion who brought it up, as soon as this Lu Governor saw Lao Zhu, he immediately knelt down, and his legs kept shaking.

Before, he looked down on Jinyiwei, but just now, he arrived at the noon gate with Liu Chun. Who doesn't know preconceived truths.

Jin Yiwei fought with the officials of Ying Tianfu, of course he wanted to sue first.

Lu Zhengduo handed the sign in and waited to be summoned.

How do you know that a few people at the gate of the palace don't pay attention to him at all. Instead, he crossed Lu Zhengduo, ran to Liu Chun, nodded his head, took Liu Chun's sign, and trotted in directly.

At this moment, Lu Zhengduo knew that it was bad. Between him and Liu Chun, it is not the same weight at all.

Therefore, after he bowed to Lao Zhu, he did not dare to sue, but went all out to excuse himself.

"Your Majesty, the minister heard that Li Zhuohe, the secretary of the Guozi Prison, had told Tan Shan that someone had seized their ship for no reason, so the minister took someone over. Discover, discover ......"

"Found what?" Lao Zhu asked sharply.

"I found that Tang Yun, the previous offender, was taking people to guard the two ships, and the lower official was very surprised, so he stepped forward to scold, who knew that Tang Yun was very rude and scolded the minister's subordinates, so, so ...... A fight ensued. ”

After Lu Zhengduo finished speaking, he hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to say more.

Lao Zhu raised his head and looked at Liu Chun, "What he said is the truth?" ”

"Your Majesty, the military department is complete. In fact, Tang Yun did not get a formal confession, and the minister sent an official document to the Ministry of Officials, wanting to appoint him as the official of the Jinyi Guard, but the Ministry of Officials did not have a reply, so it is reasonable for Lord Lu to scold Tang Yun, at least it is excusable! ”

As soon as these words came out, Lu Zhengduo was confused.

When did this kid Liu Chun become so kind-hearted, and he actually excused himself, it was really unexpected! He was a little confused, but Lao Zhu knew Liu Chun very well, this kid has always had a bad stomach, who is he good for, then he should be careful!

"Liu Chun, there is always a reason for things, Tang Yun hurriedly seized the ships of the two officials before he got the official confession, what is he going to do? Or rather, what's on this ship? ”

Liu Chun smiled and said, "Your Majesty, if there is anything on the ship, you might as well ask Lord Lu first!" ”

"Lu Zhengduo, tell me about it!"

"Yes, it's some local products!" Lu Zhengduo said: "Li Zhuo and Tan Shan told the ministers that they were all local goods from their hometowns, and they brought them into the capital with the ship. His Majesty once issued an edict that hundreds of officials were allowed to carry some goods, and the yamen along the way did not need to be inspected. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang snorted with his nose, no need to ask, there must be something wrong here.

"Liu Chun, tell me about it, what kind of local goods are it?"

Liu Chunhan smiled, "Your Majesty, Governor Lu is indeed not wrong, it is a local product, and it is made out of the soil in an authentic way, not miserable!" ”

Lao Zhu's face darkened, and he said angrily: "Don't talk to me, hurry up and bring it up!" ”

"Yes!"

At this time, Tang Yun followed behind, and there were four little eunuchs in front, each carrying a wooden barrel, sweating all over, and his waist was about to break. It was easy to put the two buckets in front of Lao Zhu.

Zhu Yuanzhang leaned over and saw two buckets of yellow and clear ...... Millet.

Lu Zhengduo also peeked at it, and it was indeed a native product, nothing remarkable.

was finally able to pass the customs safely, he was secretly rejoicing, but Zhu Yuanzhang came down from above, grabbed the barrel with his probing hand, and lifted it twice. Don't look at Zhu Yuanzhang as old, but he still has the strength, but he didn't even lift it up.

His Majesty the Emperor simply pushed it violently, and the barrel fell over, and the contents flowed out.

First there are millet grains, and then there is the yellow and clear golden sand!

It's a big one, and it's glittering!

Yes!

Everyone let out a cry of amazement!

Lu Zhengduo was so frightened that he sat on the ground, with only two words left in his head: It's over!

Lao Zhu's eyes widened like a cow, and he suddenly overturned another wooden barrel, the same, with millet on top and golden sand below!

"Souvenirs! Liu Chun, this is what you mean by local products? "Old Zhu was angry.

"That's right, Your Majesty, didn't the gold come out of the earth?"

Such a powerful explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang stomped his feet angrily.

"What are you doing in a daze, arrest someone for me! Catch, catch them all! ”

Lao Zhu is going crazy.

There are so many golden sands, at least two or three hundred catties or more, what kind of bastard thing, I have to pick his skin!

Not long after, Li Zhuohe, the secretary of the Guozijian Division, was dragged up in the middle of the matter.

The golden sand and millet on the ground were still there, and Lao Zhu didn't let the eunuch clean it, so the two of them knelt on it!

"Li Zhuo! Tan Shan! You two brutes! Did you bring these into the capital? ”

These two people look at each other, can they admit it?

"Your Majesty, the minister, and the minister are fellow villagers, and they did bring some local products into Beijing together, but, but the minister doesn't know, how can it be, there will be gold, the minister, the minister has always been honest and honest, and there will definitely not be so much gold!" Li Zhuo denied it, and Tan Zhi also followed: "Your Majesty is clear, the minister, the minister is wronged." ”

Lao Zhu's brows are raised, and he dares to deny it, I have to give you some color to see!

"Someone!"

Lao Zhu roared angrily, the eunuchs and guards on duty rushed in, and Liu Chun hurriedly stood up, "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, these ships were seized by Lord Tang, and he still has evidence in his hand, please take a look at it." ”

Tang Yun nodded, he hurriedly knelt down and climbed a few steps, and handed a list to Lao Zhu.

"Your Majesty, please see, this is a list from the two lords to the boatmen, with their personal seals on it. According to what is written above, the freight of three ships of local products totals nine hundred taels! The minister wants to ask the two adults, if it is just some ordinary local products, how did the freight of 300 taels for a shipload come from? It won't be that you miss the local products of your hometown, and you will not hesitate to transport them from your hometown to the capital at a freight rate several times the price of local products, right? ”

"This ......" Both of them were in cold sweat, trembling all over, and they really didn't know how to explain it.

At this moment, Liu Chun smiled and said, "The two adults might as well think about it, I will bring you a few more local products, you think about it, maybe you will remember." ”

After a while, another little eunuch came up with two baskets of pumpkins...... With the previous experience, Lao Zhu directly broke the pumpkin, and it was filled with pearls the size of a dragon's eye. Counting it, there are almost four buckets!

"Okay, even in the palace, there are not so many high-quality pearls, are there any?"

"Yes!"

At this time, what was sent was some rice paper, Lao Zhu was familiar with the road, let people unfold the paper, sure enough, in the middle of the rice paper, there were many banknotes, at least one hundred yuan, almost fifty thousand!

Zhu Yuanzhang turned his head sharply and glared angrily.

"You two animals, these things alone are enough to skin you 10,000 times! Come on, flay them alive for me! ”

Lao Zhu Ke never jokes, two human skin pillows are about to be born.

Do Li Zhuo and Tan Handle still dare to deny it?

"Your Majesty, the guilty minister is willing to confess truthfully, this, these are the property of An Tong's old thief, he, he was taken by the Three Law Division, and his family entrusted someone to find us, and in our name, sent a batch of things into the capital. The sinner really doesn't know anything, huh? ”

Tan Shan also said: "That's right, if the sinner knows that it is gold and pearls, how can the sinner agree, how dare he agree?" ”

The two of them kowtowed, and their heads were swollen, and the bricks on the ground were covered in blood.

The happiest person at this moment is none other than Tang Yun!

Should!

One of you is in charge of the country, and the other is in the middle of the six sections.

Don't you all pride yourself on being clear?

Aren't they all righteous and awe-inspiring, looking high?

You scold this, scold that, and put on an innocent and ancient appearance all day long.

Bah!

What a large clove of garlic!

Don't think that Lao Tzu can't see your fancy intestines.

Are you just helping with the delivery of goods?

You guys really don't know what's inside?

Are you kidding!

One of you is An Tong's student, and the other is his fellow countryman, without An Tong's promotion, can you have where you are today? In the past, Lao Tzu was too lazy to take care of you, but now Lao Tzu is a brocade guard, so you just wait for bad luck!

Tang Yun said loudly again: "Your Majesty, the sins of these two people can be investigated slowly, and the minister now wants to say, why An Tong has such a family background, this is the key!" ”

Lao Zhu groaned: "An Tong was originally a river manager, because of his meritorious work in water control, he joined the Ministry of Industry, and was later promoted to the secretary of the Criminal Department, and resigned and returned to his hometown because of old illness. ”

"Your Majesty is wise...... What the minister wants to say is that during the period of the Ministry of Industry, the capital built the Fengtian Temple, and An Tong once presided over the great work! ”

"Ahh

Lao Zhu instantly understood, no wonder there are so many golden sands, it turns out that this is for the palace?

Zhu Yuanzhang has always been thrifty, go to his dormitory to see, there is no gold and jade in it, if you have to use gold, replace it with copper, if you can't replace it, gild it outside, brush gold powder!

"The gold I have worked so hard to save has gone into the pockets of this thief! I'm so angry! ”

Lao Zhu flew up with two feet and kicked Li Zhuo and Tan Handle aside, and the two of them rolled on the ground several times, not to mention how miserable it was.

"Take An Tong and bring him to me! I want to judge this thief! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's roar echoed in the Golden Palace, and the dragon roared and the tiger roared!
