Chapter 147

Lu Bing looked at the ministers and smiled bitterly and sneered. The smile was that if so many ministers really wanted to fine, he would have offended them all. The sneered was that the ministers still did not admit that the shops belonged to their homes, and they still said that the people had a lot of opinions. Now the people applauded and said that they were late to arrest them, and they still had any opinions?

"Well, sirs, let me explain it clearly first. The imperial edict has been issued for a long time. You know, right?" Lu Bing sat there and said as he looked at the ministers.

"Yeah!" the ministers nodded, this cannot be shirked.

"I wonder if you know about their price increase. I have a list of materials purchased by Zhang Hao, as well as their purchase prices, including the signatures of the shopkeepers. Is this not wrong?" Lu Bing looked at them and continued to ask,

They nodded again, and this cannot be shirked.

"Then I want to ask, they openly resisted the imperial edict and made money from the national crisis. Why can't I arrest you? Can't I search the house for such a thing? Can't I arrest their entire family?" Lu Bing continued to ask the ministers. Those ministers look at me, I see you, and then they stop talking.

"So, sirs, you are all important officials in the court. You should know the laws of the Ming Dynasty. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, they should be killed, right?" Lu Bing continued to ask,

Anyway, as long as they don’t speak, they are reasonable. If they are reasonable, they will not do anything wrong. They can still make peace with the ministers at that time. This time I am going to put the shelves on the shelves and there is nothing I can do about it.

"Mr. Lu, this matter cannot be like this, right? All the families are killed, but there are more than 40 families here, and the impact is not good!" A minister stood up and said to Lu Bing.

"Yes, the impact is not good. By then, those businessmen will not dare to open shops in the capital!"

"That's right, Lord Lu, this matter cannot be done like this. You should give those businessmen a chance!"...

The ministers immediately started talking, and Lu Bing sat there and listened to them. As they were talking, the ministers saw that Lu Bing did not speak, so they stopped talking and looked at Lu Bing.

"It's not that there is no chance to survive. If the fine is paid, their families will still be able to come out!" Lu Bing sat there and said.

"How much is the fine?" Weng Wanda looked at Lu Bing and asked.

"How much goods have been sold, the fine is ten times more!" Lu Bing said.

"So many!" When the ministers heard this, they looked at Lu Bing in surprise.

"It's just so much. This is not what I mean, but the emperor's intention. It would be great if the emperor could give them a chance to survive!" Lu Bing immediately carried Jiajing out. There was no way, it could only be said that it was requested by the emperor, and it could not be said that it was requested by Zhang Hao, because if he said it, those ministers would not give it to him. How would he complete the task by the more than 2 million at that time?

"No, according to Lord Lu, you mean that even if they paid the fine, those shopkeepers would not be able to come out?" Hu Song also looked at Lu Bing and asked.

"Well, that's the case now, if, um!" Lu Bing started to move when he heard Hu Song's question. Zhang Hao didn't say that he wanted to kill those shopkeepers, it would be nice to be fined.

"I'll go ask the emperor for instructions, but I guess if I pay a fifteen-fold fine, I'll probably be fine. I can't confirm this matter yet. I still need to ask the emperor for instructions, and the emperor may not be able to agree!" Lu Bing continued to look at them and said,

Those ministers also look at me, I see you, so many punishments, but those ministers dare not not go to fine, and those shopkeepers are basically their relatives.

In addition, what if they know that no one saves them inside, what if they bite them out and come out.

"Sir, they have said everything in the cell. I won't hand over these records to the emperor now. If they hand them to the emperor, it may be difficult to do!" Lu Bing said as he took out the records in his hand and said with a smile.

"What does it mean? He said everything?" Weng Wanda heard it, was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lu Bing.

"Yes, I've said everything. I won't say it for the first time. Everyone understands people and don't need to say it so clearly. Okay, everyone will go back and think about it and prepare money.

By the way, I will post the records of how much goods sold by each merchant to Zhang Hao later, including how much money they have been checked, how much goods they have been collected, and how much fines they need to pay. I guess the relatives of those merchants will definitely find ways not to save them. In fact, they can't spend much money. I guess the family will only subsidize tens of thousands of taels of silver!" Lu Bing said with a smile at them.

"This!" The ministers were all dumbfounded. Tens of thousands of taels were not much, but for them, it was not much, but they were reluctant to let it go. The money was fined.

"Okay, I haven't slept all night. Those things will be posted later. I'll go to the palace to meet the emperor. If there is anything, I'll talk about it next time!" Lu Bing said and stood up. He was going to enter the palace.

"This confession?" Weng Wanda looked at Lu Bing and said.

"Oh, confession, don't worry, I won't hand it over to the emperor now. If they come out, these confessions will be handed over to them to take back!" Lu Bing immediately said with a smile.

He knew that the confessions here were the ones that cost them the most, and who wouldn't be afraid of those ministers?

Soon, Lu Bing went out. He really wanted to go to the palace. After all, Zhang Hao said that the emperor asked him to do it, so he must report it. After Lu Bing arrived at the Danfang, he immediately knelt down and began to report on the interrogation.

After hearing this, Jiajing didn't say anything. Jiajing said a lot when he was with Zhang Hao. Other ministers came to him and basically had nothing to say. Of course, when he was with those nobles, he would still talk a little and would also say some family matters.

"Well! It's a good job. Zhang Hao said he would give you 200,000 taels. Remember to hand it over to the Jinyiwei. These people should have investigated and should have investigated. It's so difficult for Zhang Hao to provide disaster relief!" Jiajing sat on it, nodded and said.

"Yes, the emperor, but they want to redeem those shopkeepers. I said, I want to ask the emperor for instructions. If you agree, then you will be fined five times more. I wonder if it is okay?" Lu Bing knelt there and said carefully.

Jiajing heard that the fire was so great that the country was in trouble and wealth, they actually wanted to go out. Did they regard the laws of the Ming Dynasty as a joke? It would be great if they didn't check the ministers themselves, but they actually made more and more effort.

Jiajing sat there and kept silent. Lu Bing knew that this must be impossible.

"Your Majesty, if you don't agree, those ministers may not be fined!" Lu Bing lowered his head and reported to Jiajing, it was indeed difficult to deal with.

"You won't arrest two officials and kill one to warn you. I have to teach you how to do such a thing?" Jiajing looked at Lu Bing with dissatisfaction and said.

"Ah, this is it!" Lu Bing didn't dare to say anything after hearing Jiajing say this.

"Do you do it well, don't be afraid of this and worry about that. This time, you'll do it well. You'll arrest all the people you deserve. Those civil officials dare not do it?" Jiajing opened his eyes and looked at Lu Bing and said dissatisfiedly.

"It's the emperor, I'll do it now!" Lu Bing immediately bowed.

Jiajing knocked on the crow and Lu Bing immediately went out.

"A bastard, dare to ask for any kind of love, and those civil officials dare not move!" After Jiajing waited for Lu Bing to leave, he said with great dissatisfaction. Lu Fang stood there without saying a word.

"If Zhang Hao was going to do this, you can't even escape. Unfortunately, the Imperial Guard has not been trained yet, and Zhang Hao can't control so many people on the Jinyiwei!" Jiajing said regretfully.

He hoped that Zhang Hao would investigate, but he didn't dare to ask Zhang Hao to investigate now, for fear that Zhang Hao would be in danger. At that time, Zhang Rong would be angry and he had no reason to stop him. Once it happened, his Jiajing Dynasty would probably become a joke in history, and all the officials in Beijing would be killed.

"Emperor, Zhang Hao actually did a good job. At least, the emperor has money now, and I probably will be in your hands for the fine this time!" Lu Fang immediately persuaded Jiajing and said.

"This bastard asked me to write an IOU!" Jiajing said immediately with a smile.

"You owe money from Shuntian Mansion, not Zhang Hao. When the Shuntian Mansion is changed, who dares to ask you for it?" Lu Fang immediately reminded Jiajing.

"You old guy, this made you think of it!" Jiajing pointed at Lu Fang with a smile. Lu Fang thought to himself, that's what you think. I have been with you for so many years, but I still don't know what you are thinking?

"Well, don't worry, Zhang Hao is doing a good job. This time he forced Lu Bing to separate his relationship with those civil officials. If he still can't get involved, don't blame me for not being in love. The Ming Dynasty cannot be abandoned in my hands!" Jiajing sat there, saying with a cold face.

Jiajing had long wanted to deal with Lu Bing, but because of his previous relationship and the fact that he did not have the right person to replace him, he also didn't want to alarm the enemy. Now Zhang Hao is making trouble below and he didn't do anything!

Doing it yourself will arouse the vigilance of those civil officials!

And on Yan Song's side, they have also received accurate news. This matter was done by Lu Bing. At this moment, the civil officials were very dissatisfied with Lu Bing. After so many years of peaceful life, Lu Bing is actually playing with them.

"Look, I can let the censor impeach it. Lu Bing has many industries, and there are many lives in his hands. Even if the emperor protects him like this, he should have a degree, right?" Lu Ben sat there, looking at Yan Song and Xu Jie and said, Yan Song nodded slightly.

And Xu Jie didn't say anything.
