Chapter 595: The Assessment Actually Implicated Many Corrupt Officials

Chapter 595: The assessment actually implicated many corrupt officials

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard Ye Xuan's words, the anger in his heart slowly subsided for a moment and he sat back on the chair, but his eyes were full of anger.

The officials were in their own hands, and they were supposed to benefit the people, but they didn't expect that they themselves became corrupt first.

This is simply not taking yourself seriously!

No matter what he did, Zhu Yuanzhang did not want this matter to get bigger and bigger.

Ye Xuan agrees with him.

"Your Majesty, the government has just selected these ambitious people. If we involve them all again, I am afraid that many officials will be unconvinced. What we have to do is to make them suffer."

Ye Xuan The Grand Pure One Chu, the idea of ​​these officials, they have always just wanted to gain a foothold in the court.

Officials and officials have been protecting each other for so many years. After Zhu Yuanzhang came to power, "Nine Zero Zero" did not eliminate these party members at all.

This led to the rapid expansion of the chain of interests between them. If he really let it go, the four major Hongwu cases would be quickly formed in his own hands.

He had personally experienced the Hu Weiyong case.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew better than anyone how angry he was at that time. Everyone involved had been beheaded, including the nine tribes.

That was the first time Ye Xuan experienced how powerful the majesty of the king was.

Now that he has reached this point, he has no way to protect himself, and more people will be involved.

Ye Xuan already had a plan in his mind.

"It is normal for officials in the DPRK and China to protect each other. When the officials involved in this assessment were investigated, more or less clues were detected from their bodies.

Zhu Yuanzhang frowned as he listened to Ye Xuan's words.

He had already expected such consequences, but he did not expect that in Ye Xuan's hands, the corruption evidence of these officials had been slowly collected.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at Ye Xuan intently and motioned for him to continue speaking.

"Now that I have prepared the list of these officials, Dali Temple only needs to find out all of them. When your Majesty wants to arrest these people, they will be able to have their names."

Zhu Yuanzhang felt that Ye Xuan's words seemed to make some sense.

Ye Xuan knelt on the ground with lingering fear.

The four major Hongwu cases in history involved a huge number of people, and Zhu Yuanzhang has been discussed by future generations for this reason.

Now that it's all in his own hands, he can never let this kind of tragedy happen again.

As long as all corrupt officials are dealt with, the number of people implicated can be greatly reduced.

"Ai Qing, get up and speak first!"

No matter when Zhu Yuanzhang arrived, he was always very polite to Ye Xuan.

This time Long Yan was indeed furious, but fortunately Ye Xuan calmed him down with a few words.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Xuan, something strange flashed in his eyes.

"How knowledgeable you are about this matter. Who do you think is better at handling this matter?"

Ye Xuan stood up slowly and thought for a moment.

Zhu Biao is now assisted by himself, but he is too kind. If he encounters the intercession of these officials, he may become soft-hearted.

Zhu Di is different.

"In my opinion, King Yan can take on this responsibility!"

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Ye Xuan with some confusion.

He originally thought that Ye Xuan would recommend Zhu Biao without hesitation, but he did not expect that he would choose Zhu Kang in this matter.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a little confused.

Ye Xuan saw through his mind and spoke eloquently.

The situation has changed.

"Your Majesty does not know that the prince is currently dealing with aircraft models in the Bureau of Divine Creation. If he is involved, the officials will definitely give him advice.

"Prior to this, King Yan had no sense of presence in the court due to the assassin matter. If we leave the matter to him this time, we may make new discoveries.

Zhu Yuanzhang's sons are all talents.

Ye Xuan must let them show their strength, so that the Ming Dynasty can be more stable, instead of blindly suppressing them.

It is true that Zhu Di is ruthless, but his own strength should not be underestimated.

After listening to Ye Xuan's words, Zhu Yuanzhang showed a smile on his face, even a little proud.

"We like to hear what you say very much. All our sons are very powerful. In this case, we will leave this matter to King Yan. This is our decree."

Ye Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, almost something happened.

At the same time, in Prince Yan’s Mansion.

Zhu Di was thoughtful when he learned that Ye Xuan had handed the list of officials to Zhu Yuanzhang.

The subordinates on the side knelt in front of Zhu Di, their heads covered with cold sweat.

"Your Highness, how should we deal with the officials among them now? They have many connections with us. If they are really involved, I'm afraid...

The subordinate hadn't finished speaking, but Zhu Di already knew what he meant...

Zhu Yuanzhang was very strict with officials, and he did the most work with the least salary.

Going to court every day is like visiting a grave, and every official is terrified, fearing that if one of them fails to do what they want, Zhu Yuanzhang will seize the opportunity to dismiss him and investigate, and he may even lose his life.

But secretly, it has become a common thing for officials to protect each other.

After Ye Xuan's assessment, all these officials were screened out as having no virtue or talent.

Although he achieved great success, he also offended many people.

"Don't worry about this matter for now, tell them first, wait and see what happens, and if there are any corrupt people, first find a way out for themselves and draw a clear line between them and us.

Zhu Di wanted to remove himself from this incident. He didn't want to have his image restored in front of Zhu Yuanzhang and be affected by this.

He has a broad mind and doesn't want to get involved in such a trivial matter.

The men immediately went to do this.

At this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang's personal eunuch Wang Defu came to Prince Yan's Mansion to deliver the order.

"King Yan accepts the order!"

Wang Defu's voice came from a distance, and Zhu Di ran out quickly. When he saw Wang Defu, he quickly knelt on the ground.

Wang Defu read out the imperial edict and handed over the official corruption case to Zhu Di for joint investigation.

Collaborated with him by Ye Xuan.

"His Royal Highness King Yan, your Majesty has high hopes for you this time and wants to handle this matter together with Mr. Ye!"

5.1 Wang Defu handed the imperial edict into Zhu Di's hands. Zhu Di gritted his teeth with a cold face, but he still looked very moved on his face.

He took the imperial edict from Wang Defu's hand and gave his subordinates a wink. The subordinates quickly stepped forward to take some silver and handed it to Wang Defu's hands.

"What are you doing, Your Highness? I don't need this."

Zhu Di took the banknote and stuffed it into Wang Defu's hand. The father-in-law took a lot of trouble to make this trip. It's also good to take the money to have some tea.

Hearing Zhu Di's words, Wang Defu's face was full of smiles.

Knowing what Zhu Di meant, he revealed to him that Ye Xuan recommended Zhu Di to handle this matter.

"Master Ye seems to be strongly recommending His Highness this time. It seems that good things are coming soon."

Wang Defu’s words are profound.

Zhu Di understood.

After Wang Defu left, he held the imperial edict tightly in his hand, but his heart was full of resentment towards Ye Xuan. .
