I want to ruin the country

Zhang Congzhi kowtowed and said,

"My grandfather's family was very poor. My mother was sold to my father as his seventh concubine when she was seventeen."

Selling people again. Yining felt so angry when he heard the word "sell".

A living person has become a commodity. This is a tragedy for the whole society. The traffickers must be severely punished. Recovering his thoughts, Yining asked,

"How are you and your son doing?"

Zhang Congzhi replied,

“My mother said that she was very favored at first, but was neglected over time.

Two years later, after the boy was born, the mother had another two years of good life."

Yining Road,

"Is it considered loving someone and loving their dog?"

Zhang Congzhi smiled bitterly.

"I'm not a house, so my father is certainly not a bird. Ever since my mother fell ill a few years ago, my father has basically never entered our house!"

Yining nodded. Another poor child!

"What's wrong with your mother?"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"The doctor said it was depression. I took countless medicines but nothing worked. In the end, he left me!"

"It seems that your mother is not happy in the Zhang family?"

Zhang Congzhi lowered his head and said nothing.

Yining asked,

"Zhang Congzhi, your father and brother have committed many crimes, are you aware of that?"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"Know!"

Yining asked,

"what are you thinking?"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"If it were anyone else, I would definitely report it to the authorities, but since ancient times, sons are not to blame their fathers. I can only advise them sooner or later!"

Yining nodded. What the other person said made sense. There was nothing wrong with not mentioning the name of a respected person!

Yining asked,

"How did you persuade them?"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"Your Majesty, I have read the books of the sages and learned about the principles of the world. I have seen that many of my fathers and brothers' actions are against the harmony of nature and against human ethics.

They caused the whole village to curse and resent them, and the people were angry and resentful. The common people believed that justice would prevail and retribution would come, so they repeatedly advised their fathers and brothers to change their ways and stop before it was too late to accumulate some good karma for future generations.

But my words are not taken seriously, and my father and brothers won't listen to me at all, what can I do? "

Yining Road,

"Good fortune and bad luck come from within, they are brought upon oneself. You did well!"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"But now my family has ended up like this, and I can't do anything about it. I can only cry out in vain!"

Yining Road,

"You did what you were supposed to do, and you have nothing to be ashamed of. Don't blame yourself too much!"

Chapter Congzhidao,

"As you command, kid!"

Yining Road,

"But I'm afraid you won't be able to return home in the future. What are your plans?"

Zhang Congzhi replied with a heavy heart,

"I have lived in the Zhang family for thirteen years, and all my food, drink, and expenses have come from them. Although I have done no wrong, I cannot escape responsibility. I am willing to atone for my sins with my own body!"

Yining asked,

"You are not afraid of death?"

Zhang Congzhi's resolute way,

"Everyone must die. I will use death to prove my character. I am not wronged!"

Hahahaha! Yining laughed out loud.

"You are pedantic. If you die like this, no one will know your innocence. Instead, everyone will say that you are in cahoots with them and are in cahoots with them. You deserve to die!

"Zhang Congzhi, you are innocent, you just got caught in the crossfire. Although my sword is sharp, I won't kill the innocent! You don't have to worry about anything!"

Zhang Congzhi lowered his head and said nothing! He really didn't want to live!

Yining Road,

"If you want to prove your innocence, you should cheer up, educate people, and use your own personal experience to warn the world. Don't you think it would be more meaningful?"

"Don't dare to dream like that, kid!"

Yining Road,

“As the ancients said, the lotus grows out of the mud but remains unstained. Therefore, a gentleman loves the lotus for its character!

I think you have such character, I won't punish you by association. I'll let you go to school, and if you can pass the imperial examination, I won't object to you becoming an official!"

Zhang Congzhi couldn't believe his ears. He knew how serious the crime his family had committed. It would be a miracle if he could survive. The emperor actually allowed him to take the imperial examination. Was it true?

"Can this kid really study hard and pass the imperial examination?"

Yining smiled and said,

"Am I kidding you? I'll make an arrangement for you next."

To the defense of Iraq,

"Take Zhang Congzhi to the Hanlin Academy, find him a good teacher, and have them train him well!"

"This slave accepts the order!"

Zhang Congzhi felt that his mood these two days was like a roller coaster, from heaven to hell, and then from hell to heaven.

He quickly kowtowed to express his gratitude.

"Hurray, can you take care of my father and brother, boy?"

Yining's face turned stern.

"No, they brought this upon themselves. Think about the people they killed, the women they bullied, and the people they made homeless. Do you think they are pitiful?"

Zhang Congzhi said nothing!

"But the law is nothing more than human feelings. I will fulfill your filial piety. When the execution comes, I will allow you to pay your respects!"

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!

All of Zhang Moting's property was confiscated by Yi Gaige. The more than two million silver coins and more than one thousand hectares of land earned by their ancestors over five generations were all turned into the imperial treasury.

What made Yining happiest was that the Zhang family actually stored more than 10,000 dan of grain, which they planned to sell at a high price!

More than one million kilograms of food! How many lives can be saved with this amount of food? Yining almost shouted out in joy.

"Zhang Moting, I love you!"

When the Minister of Revenue Sai Shang'a saw that all the confiscated property of the Zhang family was brought into the palace, he became a little anxious and came to the emperor with a pout.

Yining saw that he was unhappy and of course understood why he was unhappy. She smiled and waited for him to speak.

"Your Majesty, all the confiscated property went into the imperial treasury. Could you please give me some as well?"

Yining rolled his eyes.

"why?"

Mu Zhang'a said in his heart, why don't you know, the treasury of the Ministry of Revenue is cleaner than his face.

"Slave...slave..."

Before he could finish, Yining continued,

"If I hadn't gone out incognito, would I have discovered this case?"

Sai Shang A Dao,

"Your Majesty, my Ministry of Revenue can no longer survive!"

Yining curled his lips.

"I paid for this with my own head, and it has nothing to do with your Ministry of Revenue!"

Sai Shang was almost choked to death by this sentence.

"Your Majesty, this court is also yours!"

Yining looks like a scoundrel.

"I don't care. My treasury is completely broke, and Wenqing keeps nagging me. I don't even dare to reward anyone!"

Having met such an emperor, Sai Shang'a can only blame himself for his bad luck!

Yining slaps someone and gives them a sweet date.

"Don't be upset, all the grain you've confiscated is yours. It's over 10,000 dan, that can save so many people!"

Sai Shang'a grinned and said,

"Your Majesty, this amount of food is enough for several days of porridge!"

Yining rolled his eyes.

"More than ten thousand dan of grain can feed one million people for one day, one hundred thousand people for ten days, and ten thousand people can survive for a hundred days. If you think it's too little, you can buy more!"

Sai Shang'a's face turned green.

"Your Majesty, please sell me!"

Yining asked,

"How's your soup kitchen doing? When can you start serving soup?"

Sai Shang'a said hurriedly,

"Your Majesty, the soup kitchen has been set up and will start tomorrow!"
