All of a sudden, the court shook, and finally, everyone knew that this time the emperor was really moving, even Wu Xiang was beheaded, although Chen Yan did not kill, but he was only afraid that there would never be a day to turn over, the doctor of Guanglu Temple was so idle that he couldn't be at the yamen of Qingxian, not only that, but he was beheaded along with Chen Yan's son, and fined 150,000 taels of silver, and spit out twice as much silver as he ate!

With this hand, no one in the capital dared to stretch out his hand anymore, and in two months, two full months, the plague in the Gyeonggi area finally survived.

In two months, Tongzhou Town made more than 100,000 packs of herbal medicines, 600,000 masks, and 600,000 pieces of sulfur soap, although in the end it did not cover the entire population of the capital, but it also effectively prevented the plague from raging, plus as long as there were dead people, they would be buried on the spot immediately, or cremated directly, and the source of infection was greatly reduced.

The unlucky ones can only be those bureaucrats and wealthy businessmen, and if they want to save their lives, they can only buy these herbs at a high price, and there is no other way to choose. Whether it is the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen in the capital, together with the Jin merchants in Zhuozhou, Baoding, and even Xuanda, they all send people to buy at a high price, and when it is the most expensive, a pair of decoction has been fried to 1,000 taels of silver, and a piece of medicinal soap has to be sold for hundreds of taels.

In two months, Tongzhou Town made a large windfall, and even Zhu Jie didn't expect that the people would hide so much wealth! Three million taels of silver! A full three million taels of silver entered the pockets of Tongzhou Town in this way!

Don't say that Xu Yifan, Shu Xinchen and others are so happy that their eyes narrowed into a line, and now Chongzhen is already red-eyed, three million taels of silver, this is a huge amount of money! How good would it be if this money was in the treasury......

However, this is simply impossible, Chongzhen is also a cheeky person, this is Zhu Jie earned it cleanly, one does not steal and two do not rob, but it saves the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the capital, which is tantamount to the birth of a Buddha in ten thousand families, together with Chongzhen, the emperor has been stained with great light, after all, these herbs, protective gear and even medicinal soap distributed to civilians are distributed to the people in the name of the imperial court, and the first thing the people want to be grateful for is the emperor's kindness.

If anyone dares to stand on the street and scold the emperor or Zhu Jie now, without the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and Jinyiwei, the people on the street will be able to skin this person!

A plague did not hurt the vitality of the capital, but tightly united the hearts of the people and the army!

"Haha, Zhu Jie, you say, how do you want me to reward you this time? King of Anle? ”

Chongzhen looked at the music in front of him and smiled, finally, the capital calmed down, Chongzhen was most worried about the plague, there was chaos in the capital, that is really fatal, this time, it is completely Zhu Jie's own credit, the court only used 30,000 taels of silver, and even the money allocated by himself was not used, Zhu Jie solved all the problems, this is the merit of the world!

"Your Majesty, this is all your blessings, God's favor, only to be able to make the capital turn the danger into a disaster, the minister does not dare to take credit, in addition, the plague, Tongzhou Town has done its best, mobilized all resources, a total of 10,000 catties of various herbs have been consumed, hundreds of thousands of pieces of medicinal soap have been produced, thousands of horses have been consumed in cloth alone, plus the prevention and control of the epidemic, a total of 220,000 taels of silver have been spent, of which the ministers have used 60,000 taels of silver from Tongzhou Town, and 30,000 taels of silver have been allocated by the household department, and the rest are supplemented by the proceeds from the sale of medicinal soap. At the same time, according to the minister's prior promise, fifteen taxes and one tax of 200,000 taels of silver were paid to the imperial court, which was also considered a part of the minister's mind......"

Zhu Jie bowed and replied.

Chongzhen was overjoyed, originally thought that Zhu Jie was just talking, but he didn't expect that he really had to pay taxes to the imperial court!

"Zhu Aiqing, this, this is not big, right? Honorable officials enjoy the court's favor and exemption, this is the rule set by the ancestors, not to mention that Aiqing has made great contributions this time, if I still have to tax you? I'm afraid that the people of the world will also laugh at my unsympathetic ......"

Chongzhen wanted this money very much, but he was really unknown, so he could only forcibly suppress the excitement in his heart and excuse himself.

"Your Majesty, the minister has a book!"

The left deputy capital Yu Shi Fang Kezhuang stood up and shouted.

Chongzhen and Zhu Jie were stunned at the same time, not knowing what this big man of the Metropolitan Procuratorate was doing at this time.

"Fang Aiqing, what chapter do you have?"

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Yin Zhujie of Shuntian Mansion this time is completely in the name of Tongzhou Town and Shuntian Mansion, taking advantage of the plague to ravage and make a fortune in the country, and it is too cheap to pay only 15 taxes and 1 tax, at least he should be allowed to hand over more than half of the profits, and even completely confiscate the illegal income of Tongzhou Town! Although Zhu Jie has made meritorious contributions to epidemic prevention, there are no omissions, in two months in the capital, the death toll has exceeded 8,000 people, as the Yin of Shuntian Mansion, there is an unshirkable responsibility, the merits and demerits are just offset, how to say a reward? Where did the credit come from? ”

Fang Kezhuang talked about it and talked endlessly.

"Enough! Fang Kezhuang, shut up for me! ”

Chongzhen was so angry that there was smoke above his head, shameless, shameless, extinguishing such a tragic plague, it was entirely with Zhu Jie's own strength, people finally stabilized the epidemic, they didn't reward themselves, and they had to punish the crime, I was afraid that the people in the capital would scold themselves to death, this bastard's house is strong, it is really hateful!

"Fang Kezhuang, the plague in the capital, how much effort did you make out of it? How many taels of silver did you give? Can you come up with more than half of the strategy? You didn't do bullshit, but slandered Zhu Jie? Where is the intention! Eight thousand dead? Do you also know that eight thousand people died? If it weren't for Zhu Jie's herbs, more than 80,000 people would have died in the entire capital, and 800,000 people might have died in the entire Gyeonggi! You bastard! ”

Chongzhen roared angrily.

Zhu Jie was stunned for a while, and then a wry smile appeared on his face, I've seen shamelessness, I really haven't seen such shamelessness, it's really a wood show in the forest, and the wind will destroy it!

Zhu Jie took a step forward, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, what Lord Fang said is not unreasonable, if the minister found it earlier, he could completely extinguish the plague, but unfortunately the minister found it too late, and the hard work paid by the soldiers of Tongzhou Town and the officials of Shuntian Mansion is not small, these are the achievements of the imperial court, and the ministers naturally dare not steal the merits of the sky, and are willing to take out one million taels of silver to help the imperial court river water conservancy and relief the victims." However, Master Fang, all this money is earned by me Zhu Jie, how much I have to hand over to the imperial court, that's my business, do you want you to meddle with a mouse? ”
