With so many ministers arrested, other ministers were also very panicked. Many people don’t know what’s going on. Some well-informed people think it’s a good thing. After arresting so many officials, they will have a chance.

But Yan Song and the other three were worried. They had arrested so many officials but had not filled them before. Now they had to have so many vacancies. How can we make everyone work? There are no one in many key positions now! Xu Jie said that now the Ministry of Personnel needs to check it carefully.

"Investigate? Now I have checked those officials and asked those new officials to succeed me. They don't even know how to do things. Now the emperor has money and is not worried that the Ministry of Revenue will not get money. But after checking out those corrupt officials? How can the Ministry of Revenue make money?" Yan Song sat there, looking at Xu Jie and said.

"Yes, now the emperor has money, but the Ministry of Revenue has no money. Many things need to be handled by the Ministry of Revenue, not by the Emperor! In the future, I can't do anything, I will just look for the emperor, right?" Lu Ben sat there, looking at Xu Jie and said.

"But those corrupt officials can get money? Those honest officials can't get money?" Xu Jie said dissatisfied.

"What do you think? Now you can collect the tax below to see how much land tax you can receive, and how much commercial tax you can receive? The income of the Ministry of Revenue has not increased. It is not the business of corrupt officials. It is because a lot of farmland has been concentrated in the hands of those who have fame and honor, and there are many businesses. Behind it are some princes and ministers, how to collect taxes? Who will collect taxes without corrupt officials? The emperor said before, we force the people to rebel, but in fact, we forced them to do so?" Yan Song sat there, looking at Xu Jie and finished speaking, and then sighed.

Yan Song knew very well that the current situation in the Ming Dynasty was not the matter of corrupt officials, but the entire court had problems from top to bottom. There were so many vassal kings, so many people with fame and fortune, and those with fame and fortune, their land did not need to be collected. Many people hang the land in those with fame and fortune, so that they could avoid taxes.

Those vassal kings have business in their hands, and they don’t pay taxes. Who dares to shake such interests? Who can shake them? If they don’t have the ability to touch the interests of those vassal kings, they won’t know how they die at that time. And those noble families, who doesn’t control business, who dares to touch?

"Hey!" Xu Jie sighed when he heard him say this. Don't he know these things?

But now the emperor is just staring at corrupt officials, and now he has no better way. The Ming Dynasty court can be said to be full of loopholes. If you block this or not, who can do it?

In the evening, Xu Jie and the others went back. Xu Jie sat in the study, thinking about those things.

Zhang Hao continued to settle accounts. The profits of the soap workshop are still very high, and there is a lot of money to earn every day, which is quite stable.

It was very late, Lu Bing arrived at the Danfang and reported on the investigation of the case. Jiajing nodded. After Lu Bing left, Chen Hong also came over and reported on the investigation of the case. The matter became clearer and clearer.

Three days later, a large number of concubines were sentenced to death, Concubine Jing was placed under house arrest, and Concubine Kang did not show up. Outside, more than 20 civil officials were arrested, more than 30 imperial doctors were arrested, and people who supplied medicinal materials outside were arrested, and all were arrested. Every day, corpses were carried out from the Jinyiwei Prison and the Dongchang Prison and threw them to the mass grave.

All this has nothing to do with Zhang Hao. Those people don’t need Zhang Hao to interrogate them at all. When they arrive in the prison, they say everything, and it’s useless not to say anything. Now they are like this. So many people have died, so they know it, so Zhang Hao doesn’t go to the Jinyiwei.

On this day, Zhang Hao was patrolling the canal. Now Shuntian Prefecture has hired tens of thousands of people to build the canal. All the canals under Shuntian Prefecture have to be repaired. It costs a lot of money every day. At the same time, the reservoir is also being repaired. At this time, the construction of the reservoir is all based on manpower. The county has to build three large reservoirs every day, hoping to store water and irrigate.

In the evening, when Zhang Hao arrived at the Danfang, he saw Jiajing sitting there reading the memorial. Jiajing had not read the memorial for several days, so Zhang Hao arrived at Lu Fang.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Hao came to Lu Fang and asked in a low voice.

"It's okay, the emperor is in a much better mood today!" Lu Fang said to Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao nodded, and then he was about to settle the accounts.

"Zhang Hao, Zhang Hao!" Jiajing called out Zhang Hao, and Zhang Hao ran over immediately.

"Emperor!" Zhang Hao came to Jiajing and asked as he looked at Jiajing.

"You go check someone, now!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"Ah? Kill?" Zhang Hao asked looking at Jiajing.

"You, why are you always thinking about killing people? Go and check this person, Wang Bangrui, this person has always been famous before, you can investigate it! Go to the Censorate to see his information, and the Ministry of Personnel, and then come back to report it to me!" Jiajing said to Zhang Hao.

"No, the emperor, I'm just alone, I'll ask me to check it out. Isn't it enough to ask the Censorate and the Ministry of Personnel to send him the information?" Zhang Hao looked at Jiajing in surprise and said, "I don't want to go to those two places. It's no good if I go there, and then I will really go there to read the information."

"If you ask you to go, you can go. Why are you so lazy now?" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and said.

"I'm lazy? I just came back from outside the city and have to settle the score now. If you don't do this, I'll go home!" Zhang Hao didn't spoil him either. If you spoil him, he would have more things to do by then.

"You, are you going?" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and said.

"If you don't go, you're tired!" Zhang Hao waved his hand and said, just not going,

"Tomorrow!" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and shouted.

"If something happens tomorrow, I will see the reservoir I built. I spent so much money and built more than 40 reservoirs. No problem can happen!" Zhang Hao shook his head firmly and said.

"Hey, you bastard!" Jiajing couldn't help but get off the platform and wanted to beat this kid. No one dared to disobey his orders, but he dared.

"Your Majesty, there is no one left in the Ming Dynasty. Just ask someone to do it. Why do you let me go?" Zhang Hao stared at Jiajing and said unhappily.

"If you want to go, just go. This person is now looking at him. He is a good official. I want him to manage the Ministry of War. Do you know? Go quickly!" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and shouted.

"Good official, really?" Zhang Hao felt a lot more relaxed when he heard this, but when he wanted to go to the Censorate, he still didn't want to go there. He was afraid that if he got used to it, Jiajing would let himself do this job.

"Yeah, go quickly!" Jiajing stared at Zhang Hao and said.

"I have to go there myself, I'm not that stupid. Your Majesty, what about the two people you sent for me, come here!" Zhang Hao immediately thought of the two people,

Jiajing then looked at Lu Fang.

"It's hard to find now. They are still in the inn. They originally summoned them to follow Zhang Hao to do business, but they had never seen Zhang Hao before, and they didn't know what to do, so they just rested at the inn!" Lu Fang immediately bowed to Jiajing and said.

"Start tomorrow morning, let them follow Zhang Hao!" Jiajing said to Lu Fang.

"Yes!" Lu Fang nodded immediately and said, while Zhang Hao went back and continued to settle the accounts.

"By the way, is the date of marriage for you two settled?" Jiajing asked at Zhang Hao.

"No, my father is not available, and he has not decided on his life yet. However, my father told Mr. Xu that he will get married after the New Year!" Zhang Hao sat there and said.

When Jiajing heard this, he pinched his fingers there, and then said, "The ninth day of the first lunar month next year is a good day. I told your father, that day, get married soon, your elder brother has to go to Li Yanwen to treat him now. Who knows what he will treat him?"

"Oh, my father is here, the emperor will tell my father!" Zhang Hao nodded and said to Jiajing.

"Yeah!" Jiajing nodded.

The next morning, after Zhang Hao got up, he went to work out with his elder brother. Now Zhang Hao is so cruel to train his elder brother. He has taken so much money to take revenge on himself. After the exercise, Zhang Hao carried Zhang Li back.

"Baby, don't force your brother. Brother will tell your mother that there are still tens of thousands of taels of silver in your yard!" Zhang Li lay on Zhang Hao and said angrily.

"Hmph, can you keep that money?" Zhang Hao also threatened.

"Will my mother ask me for money? Just kidding!" Zhang Li said proudly from behind.

"Dad will ask for it, but Dad has no money!" Zhang Hao said with a smile.

When Zhang Li heard this, he was depressed and then said, "Barma, let's discuss, what's wrong with me if you have so much money? We are brothers, because you have 8,000 taels of silver, you will just torment your elder brother. Don't forget, I will be the Duke of England in the future, and you will be the Marquis of Lu An, and I will deal with you at that time!"

Zhang Li lay there and continued to threaten Zhang Hao.

"I'm afraid of you?" Zhang Hao said indifferently.

"Let's discuss, I really have no money. I've taken all the money to your sister-in-law. Are you embarrassed to let your elder brother go out for a meal and have no money?" Zhang Li continued to persuade Zhang Hao and said.

"That doesn't cost eight thousand taels!" Zhang Hao replied.

"Brother takes you to the brothel in two days, okay?" Zhang Li continued to tempt Zhang Hao and said.

"Okay!" Zhang Hao heard that, it was OK. He was not familiar with brothels, but he was familiar with the elder brother.

"It's decided, don't bother your elder brother like this!" Zhang Li agreed when he heard this.

After breakfast, Zhang Hao was about to go to the yamen.

At this moment, an official wearing a seventh-grade official uniform in the sixth-grade official uniform saw Zhang Hao coming and immediately bowed and said, "Secretary Zhang Juzheng!"

"The lower official Hu Zongxian!"

"Have you met Mr. Lu An!"

"Who?" Zhang Hao was stunned. Why are these two people here?
