Hu Kaishan scratched his head.

Indeed, after following Fang Jifan, he found that the world had changed.

In the past, I saw too many people who were rich and unkind, and saw too many officials protecting each other and oppressing good people.

But now... everyone is full of enthusiasm. Everyone who sees him is always concerned about his well-being. He used to be called a bad guy Hu Kaishan, but now he is called Hu Zhuangshi.

When the person who saw him sneered at him, he used to sneer at this dog-like thing; but now, the first sentence is, have you eaten? Are you hungry?

Hu Kaishan is not stupid, but he is used to the warmth and coldness of human feelings. Those who forced him to go up the mountain to become bandits, but now they all look kind and look, which makes him a little uncomfortable.

He was taciturn and he didn't respond to anything Ren Fang Jifan said.

Fang Jifan put away these posts, invincible... It's so lonely.

……………………

An urgent report was quickly passed to the inner court.

In the Sili Prison, Xiao Jing was holding this hot secret report and his eyes were about to fall off.

There is news.

News from Qingzhou Prefecture.

The Qingzhou Prefecture suffered a major disaster, with river embankment breaking, hundreds of people killed and injured, and countless people were displaced. The Qingzhou Prefecture did not want to help the disaster, so he took this opportunity to secretly emptied the stored grain in the Qingzhou Prefecture treasury, saying that it was destroyed by heavy rain. Since then, the grain has flowed to the market and sold at high prices.

"..." Xiao Jing never expected that this man was so brave.

What's even more terrifying is that at the same time, the Shandong Provincial Administration and the Ministry of Justice had also been treated. It is said that this heavy rain has fed many people.

But Xiao Jing's face turned pale was Liu Mao, the eunuch in Shandong. Liu Mao was his godson and had always been trusted by him. But in this matter, he accepted the benefits of Wu Jiang and was actually covering up Wu Jiang.

The entire Qingzhou Prefecture actually joined forces to deceive superiors and subordinates. Xiao Jing had seen more and more people in the world, so he didn't feel surprised, but the problem was that his godson was also bought.

Of course...this is not terrible news.

In the report, there was also a case mentioned. Three years ago, ships prepared for the Japanese guards were patrolling the coast and were attacked by Japanese pirates. More than 100 people were killed, countless injured, and two shipwrecks were sunk. Behind this, it is very likely that it was related to some giant households in Jiangnan who colluded with Japanese pirates. However, the prefect of Qingzhou, Wujiang, was unfortunately from a giant household.

In this way, things seem to have a bright future.

It is impossible for a prefect to have such a great power, because what he relies on is a big family.

And this family has made huge profits because they colluded with some overseas bandits. It is almost imagined how rich Bingjing Tanjing sent to Beijing is. Therefore, it is not surprising why this prefect Wu received so many praises.

These geniuses obviously know more or less that Wu Jiang is not very clean. Although he received the money and praised him very much, no one was so brave that he promoted this person. Otherwise, once the story of Wu Jiang was revealed, wouldn't he be involved?

Xiao Jing's eyes were faint and he read the report deeply.

He began to hesitate.

Everything is as said by Fang Jifan and the prince.

I guessed it really well.

But the question is, should I report the report? The news inside is so terrible. Your Majesty will be furious, and then...

If it is concealed, then... everything will be peaceful. After all, except the factory guards, who dares to expose such a thing?

Xiao Jing hesitated for a moment and gritted his teeth. He must reveal it. This is a hidden danger to the state. If the factory guards do not report it, His Majesty will be kept in the dark forever.

After all, Xiao Jing still couldn't bear it. He couldn't bear to be fooled by His Majesty like a fool.

But... he glanced at the little eunuch standing beside him: "Call me, go to Shandong first to find the eunuch Liu Mao."

When he heard Liu Mao, the little eunuch who was ignorant of the inside smiled. Liu Mao was the godson of Eunuch Xiao and was extremely filial. He usually found some treasures in Shandong. Not only did Eunuch Xiao have one, but also the people who work in Silijian and Dongchang, which were more or less beneficial.

"After finding Liu Mao, tell him a word and say it was said we said it in person." Xiao Jing's eyes flashed with murderous intent: "Before leaving the palace, we told him to be cautious. We should take the money we should take. We should never touch what we should not take. We already know some things, let him... let him do it by himself!"

The little eunuch's smile gradually disappeared and he looked at Xiao Jing in horror.

Xiao Jing had already stood up and hurried to the warm room.

………………………………………

Emperor Hongzhi was trembling.

My eyes were staring at the retribution, and my whole body felt cold.

Wujiang is such a person, and from the Ministry of Personnel, to the Shandong Provincial Administration and the eunuchs, and even the local commander... these people are hiding them.

He was greedy for the ink, deceived the monarch, harmed the people, and even... colluded with Japanese pirates!

Emperor Hongzhi felt cold and never expected that Wujiang, the prefect who everyone praised, was such a treacherous person.

Bang!

Emperor Hongzhi patted the table.

Xiao Jing crawled on the ground: "I have died."

"What do you have to do with you?"

"After all, I am responsible for the East Factory, and I can't observe it in advance. The factory guard should have been His Majesty's eyes and His Majesty's ears, but..."

"It has nothing to do with you!" Emperor Hongzhi said: "At the same time, no one except Wujiang, no one else is guilty. Do you know what is the most terrible thing? The most terrible thing is that if a person does evil, he gives gifts, and the others are watching coldly, keeping a distance from him, watching him harm the people, holding the ice charcoal that everyone is taking, and various New Year gifts. If something happens, this evil person should naturally die, but what about the others? The others have nothing to do with them. They have not promoted this evil person, Bing Jingtan, and gifts, but it is just a matter of personal etiquette. At most, they are just inadvertent. They can say that they have misconducted such a evil person. You say, "Let me tell me, I can kill a Wujiang, raid his home, and destroy his clan, but I... what should I do with others?"

Emperor Hongzhi was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

He was trembling all over.

Yes, this is the key to the problem.

Wujiang is so easy to deal with. If you continue with one decree, you will die and destroy the clan. But what about those spectators and those who "disobey"?

Xiao Jing said: "I dare not say anything from others, but Liu Mao, the eunuch in the palace, he dares to do so. I have already ordered him to stop him."

"As for the others..."

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand and smiled bitterly: "Yes, another Liu Mao was dealt with. This is great. Then? What about the Ministry of Personnel, the Shandong Provincial Administration and the Ministry of Administration and even the Japanese pirates and the Japanese Guards, there are probably internal supporters. Also, the Commander and Commander, there are no people involved in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and the Fujian Provincial Administration and the Fujian Provincial Administration and Commissioner? If you look deeper, do these people have no mentors, no relatives and friends, but I am afraid that there are many people in the various departments in the court. After getting Bing Jingtan, many people have said good things to him."

Emperor Hongzhi held his hands behind his back: "What should I do? Will I deal with it together? Will it be the case of Emperor Taizu Gao punishing Hu Weiyong? It was implicated in tens of thousands of people at once? Can I do it?"

Xiao Jing was silent.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "In recent years, the Japanese pirates have become more and more rampant, and even the Japanese pirates have plagued the southeast coast. I have been muttering in my heart that only a few thousand Japanese pirates are only a few thousand. My Ming Dynasty has millions of soldiers, but these Japanese pirates are always suppressing more and more, and they become more and more blatant. Now I understand that what is scary is not the Japanese pirates, but the people's hearts."

Xiao Jing's eyes turned red: "There are eunuchs involved in this matter. Liu Mao is recommended by me by my servant. Please punish him. Your Majesty. From ancient times to the present, there are countless such things..."

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and waved his hand: "I... am not as good as the prince! Even the prince understands what he understands, I can't understand!"

"His Majesty……"

Emperor Hongzhi's eyes turned red: "Summon the prince and Fang Jifan."

"Would you like to bring the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Personnel..."

What did Xiao Jing want to say?

Emperor Hongzhi waved his hand: "Crown Prince Xuan and Xin Jianbo first!"

Really worse than a prince.

Zhu Houzhao only read the memorial and realized that something was wrong behind it.

I thought I was self-righteous and thought how hard I worked, but in fact, I was still in the palace.

Emperor Hongzhi's heart skipped a beat.

How did the prince see it?

Suddenly, Emperor Hongzhi understood.

It's because... the prince did it himself.

He went to Lingqiu County, personally provided disaster relief, personally controlled the water, and even went to the river embankment himself.

He had personal experience of this flood, so he naturally knew it.

What’s ridiculous is that people like Wujiang don’t know what water control is about, and they just want to deceive their superiors and conceal their subordinates. Therefore, they even fabricated their own memorials to control water, which are full of loopholes.

But Emperor Hongzhi believed such a memorial full of loopholes.

The reason I believe is precisely because, besides the rivers under the Jinshui Bridge, there are also lakes in the back gardens, and at most, plus a moat, I almost know nothing about the so-called flooding of rivers.

Integrate knowledge and action!

A thought emerged from the bottom of Emperor Hongzhi's heart.

Isn’t this...the unity of knowledge and action?

Practice produces true knowledge without personal experience or real experience. The so-called saints taught by me are just reading yourself as a fool.

The prince, this is much stronger than his father.

Emperor Hongzhi frowned: "Transfer it quickly!"

"Sister, obey the order!"

Xiao Jing no longer dared to hesitate.
