Another World Da Ming: I use a hundred lives to become holy

Zhu Chongba's current age, although he is no longer in the prime of life.

But his bones are still very strong, and his eyes are still very good.

In addition, in the study room, apart from the slight afterglow of the setting sun, candles were lit by the palace attendants.

He also noticed the imprint of the seal, which seemed a little weird compared to the handwriting written with a brush.

"There's something odd about it."

"Didn't we lose the official share of any place when we distributed the Four Treasures of the Study?"

"Why do all the seal marks on these official documents appear so much lighter than the traces of pen and ink?"

Zhu Chongba is an office maniac. Every day, there are not one thousand, but eight hundred of the words and stamps that pass by his pen.

He can see what normal chapters and normal handwriting look like every day, so he can still see this obvious difference.

"But does that prove anything?"

"It seems that we have to hold the Ministry of Industry accountable. What kind of stamps are these stamps? Why are the stamps so weak?"

"No! We were almost foolish again."

"It's not about the chapter, but about the ink pad!"

"Don't worry, let's write a decree to criticize them!"

Zhu Chongba thought that Zhao Zheng had made a fuss, so he came to him because of such a trivial matter.

Even the whole person seemed a little happy.

Finally!

The officials from Zhao's residence were finally not all the kind of all-round assaulters.

In terms of discovering loopholes in the policy, maybe all the people from your Zhao family are good at it.

But when you go to Jinyiwei, you can't do the kind of work that requires carefulness, patience, hard work and death.

"It's really not easy for me to be the emperor."

"Finally discovered your weakness!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba was self-righteous and happy, after writing his criticism of the Ministry of Industry.

He looked up and smiled, but looked at Zhao Zheng's face still serious.

He knew something was wrong.

"broken!"

"Aiqing, isn't this a bad thing?"

Emperor Zhu Chongba's heart finally lifted.

When it's over, should I be happy or angry.

Happily, the righteous Marquis whom he just appointed is worthy of being from the Zhao family, and he found another loophole in his world.

The angry thing is, do other civil and military ministers eat dry food!

Why can't it be compared to a Zhao family!

"Speak!"

It's not that Zhu Chongba has changed his sex.

Instead, it went through a series of operations by Zhongyi Bo Zhao Zheng, Nong Shenggong and Zhao Wang Zhao Zheng.

Both his crown prince and queen have thought about him many times, so that he can no longer be too embarrassing to Zhao Zheng.

Otherwise, if you catch someone's family and squeeze them out, even if your family has the heart of a saint.

For the officials of the imperial court and the common people of the world, they would definitely not be able to stop criticizing him, the emperor.

Plus people will get old.

Zhu Chongba also wanted not to make his prince's life too difficult in the future, and let him be the father.

The Zhao family, such a useful tool person, turned against each other.

So now he can hold back his violent temper.

"His Majesty!"

"The seals and handwriting traces on these official documents are not caused by the ink pads made by the Ministry of Industry, but by the people who use them..."

Zhao Zheng didn't know why the emperor's attitude suddenly became so good, but it didn't prevent him from talking about the problem.

Besides, monks can't run away from temples if they can run, and dogs can... can't be changed...

He didn't believe that Zhu Chongba could still sit still after listening to the questions he asked.

"what is the problem?"

Sure enough, when Zhu Zhongba heard that it was a human problem, his voice became a little higher.

Seeing the official documents that need to be moved by several people, the nameless fire in Zhu Chongba's chest began to leak out uncontrollably.

If there are problems with so many official documents, the people involved must have affected most of the court, or even the entire court.

Anyway, the Ministry of Finance can't escape in the first place!

That household department is in charge of the world's finances!

If there is a financial problem, it is robbing him, the emperor, of his money!

A bloody light flashed in Zhu Chongba's eyes, and the atmosphere in the whole study instantly became oppressive.

Only Zhao Zheng didn't seem to feel it, and he told all the problems he discovered, and said that he was great.

blank print

The reason why it happened, there will be countless people saying that there is no way to do it, and there is really no way to make such a big disturbance.

After all, the ancient world was too big, and the speed of people and horses was too slow.

The transportation of grain, grass and silver will inevitably lead to loss.

It is normal that the details handed in at the time of departure do not match those after arriving in the capital.

If you don't use the method of empty printing.

Then according to the normal procedure, once the amount does not match, it needs to be sent to a courier to deliver the missing money and food again.

In the middle, it will still continue to be worn out, and then it will be replenished, and the local government and the Ministry of Households will stamp it again, and it will go back and forth from then on.

It may take more than a year for one year's taxes to be fully settled.

Therefore, the empty printing case does not seem to be a big crime.

But these are all excuses, nonsense, and a poisonous plan to disrupt the world.

If it is just an ordinary businessman buying and selling, it is indeed very suitable to use this method of counting the goods and handling the payment after the goods arrive.

After all, the cost of delivery is included in the unit price of the goods.

But when a country collects the world's taxes, if things go on like this, it will do the same.

That is undoubtedly the way of self-destruction.

There are many reasons for the demise of Qianyuan!

But because of the corruption and laziness of the household department and the local government, they started to use the method of blank printing.

It must be one of them.

"why?"

Zhu Chongba, as an emperor, it's normal for him to be not good at these ways, so he asked Zhao Zheng a question.

Zhao Zheng, who knew what the problem was, naturally patiently explained it to him.

"His Majesty."

"The local government should pay taxes and food to the capital, and pay as much as it can."

"But officials want to make meritorious service, so they have to pay more. Even if the local production is reduced due to disasters, they may not pay less."

"And this will lead to a prefecture, and even a certain amount of grain in its own state capital Taicang (local emergency storage) to pretend to have a bumper harvest in a calamity year."

"In the year of harvest, pretend to have a higher level of political achievements!"

Emperor Zhu Chongba nodded, remembering that Jin Yiwei seemed to have indeed reported such a situation.

But that kind of officials have already been dealt with by themselves.

The rest of the people just made a blank case, which seems a bit excusable.

"We ordered Jin Yiwei to deal with the officials who did such a thing, this kind of officials! Let's arrest one and exile the other!"

Inside and outside the words, Zhu Chongba all revealed his zero tolerance for mistakes made by officials.

But seeing that he still didn't realize the seriousness of it, Zhao Zheng became a little anxious.

The next time you come to report this kind of thing by yourself, you must also arrest a smart person, such as Liu Ji or Prince Zhu Biao, to the scene.

Otherwise, if he faced Zhu Chongba alone, he would not only be beaten by his words after a while, but also had to be persuaded to calm down.

too difficult.

"His Majesty!"

"The real problem may be hidden in the transportation process!"

"Your Majesty, please try!"

"If one place originally transported [-] shi of money and food, [-] shi might be lost during the transportation."

"But because of the method of stamping the stamp in advance, and then filling in the text."

"Then the official document will only say that nine thousand taels have been paid."

"The thousand stones in the middle just disappeared without a trace!"

The implication is already very clear.

The one thousand stones that disappeared did not appear in the official document.

Who knows what could have caused it?

Anyway, it is said verbally that it was consumed during transportation, but it was not recorded in the official documents and became black and white.

Snapped!

"We really didn't expect that there would be such a big problem in the middle!"

"And if this kind of document that was stamped first is also widely used in other places."

"Corruption of money and food? Leapfrogging troops? Conscripting corvees? Privately imposing miscellaneous taxes?"

Zhu Chongba was easily understood by Zhao Zheng, and even extended it to other places by himself.

"hateful!"

"This is full of civil and military affairs, what else is hiding from us!"

with a snap.

Those official documents were kicked down by Zhu Zhongba, but he still felt puzzled.

Zhao Zheng was left directly behind, as if he ran out to dispatch troops.

Things suddenly got messy.

This is something that Zhao Zheng did not expect...
