Time Travel: After Seizing the Throne, I Lead the Ming Dynasty to Take Off

Something happened in Datong Prefecture earlier.

In addition to using the same trick as Zhu Yuanzhang's that led to skinning and stuffing the body with straw and ordering severe investigation and punishment, he also randomly picked out some account books and asked Zhuo Jing to check them.

Problems were found in the three mines that were checked first, namely Huainan, Huaibei, etc.

This Jiangxi mine is the last one, and he doesn’t know the result yet.

"Yes." The young eunuch responded and walked out.

Not long after.

Zhuo Jing, with a weather-beaten face and some chapped skin, walked in respectfully in a crimson official robe.

He bowed and saluted: "Your humble servant, respectfully pays homage to Your Majesty!"

"What's the matter?" Zhu Yunhuan casually chose a comfortable soft couch and sat down cross-legged. He was in a good mood and was too lazy to beat around the bush, so he asked directly with interest.

I heard Zhu Yunhuan asking directly about the work situation.

Zhuo Jing was silent for a moment, then raised his head with awe and looked at the young emperor in front of him with burning eyes full of awe and respect.

Then he knelt down with a plop.

He kowtowed solemnly and shouted, "Your Majesty is wise! I have never seen or heard of such extraordinary means! Your Majesty... saved the lives of the miners in Yuanzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi!"

In his voice.

You can even hear the word "pious".

Seeing him like this, Ma Sanbao, who was standing beside him, gasped with wide eyes. He couldn't help but look down at his master, thinking to himself, "Is there something fishy going on at the mine in Yuanzhou Prefecture, Jiangxi?! It seems there's something fishy going on. First it happened in Huaibei, then Huainan... and now in Jiangxi... Your Majesty is truly amazing!"

Although he was not involved in this matter, he was very clear about it.

Anyway, he knew that his master asked Song Zhong to move the account books over for him to look at, and then he picked a few at random, and every time he picked one, it turned out to be correct!

Looking at the account book, his eyes seemed to be enlightened.

The account looks so good?

Zhu Yunhuan nodded calmly, not too surprised, and said with a smile: "Get up and tell me."

In the past, there were a lot of memorials to be submitted at this time, but now that he was free, he thought this would be a good way to pass the time.

Then Zhuo Jing stood up.

He told Zhu Yunhuan everything that had happened in Yuanzhou Prefecture and the details of the investigation from beginning to end.

"To think that criminal, who was just a small flag, could actually stir up such a secret and major case is truly shocking!"

"If it weren't for your Majesty's keen eye, he would have pulled out that account book."

"It's impossible for me to have noticed this mine among the many mines in Yuanzhou, Jiangxi. It's impossible for me to find this remote mine without investigating it openly and secretly, and spending time and energy on it..."

Zhuo Jing's tone was filled with emotion, fear, and admiration.

Listen to the whole process.

Zhu Yunhuan remained quite calm, but Ma Sanbao, standing behind him, stared with wide eyes, his face filled with shock and disbelief. "Such a tricky case...your Majesty can figure it out just by looking at the account books!?"

After Zhuo Jing finished speaking, he knelt down again and apologized, saying, "I am ashamed!"

"Your Majesty instructed me to keep an eye on the accounts, but I have never been able to discover the trickery involved! I have failed in my duty."

Of course, although Zhuo Jing said this, he also felt that he was a little wronged in this matter. The entire Yuanzhou mine in Jiangxi was generally fine, but there was a problem in one of the remote mines, and the Jinyiwei flag was so secretive.

Even a normal person can’t figure it out!!

Fortunately, the young emperor's usual gentle and pleasant voice immediately sounded overhead: "This matter is not your fault. It's the other party's fault for being too secretive and using too sophisticated means. In this situation, even a routine investigation would be difficult to find out anything, let alone secret supervision."

Zhu Yunhuan certainly knew that the fault was not his.

If an auditing agency could investigate all corruption clearly, emperors of all dynasties would not have to worry about various corruption cases and deceiving their superiors and subordinates.

After hearing what Zhu Yunhuan said, Zhuo Jing finally let go of his anxious heart and breathed a sigh of relief.

"My dear Minister Zhuo has been traveling back and forth between Huainan, Huaibei, Jiangxi and other places in recent days. I can tell at a glance that you are exhausted. You are working hard for me. You have no faults and have made contributions. Just stand up." Zhu Yunhuan raised his hand slightly.

The art of weighing and controlling people requires a balance between relaxation and tension, and clear rewards and punishments.

Where severe punishments are used, there must be rewards. We cannot simply suppress, authoritarianize, and pressure the people below us.

Only in this way can it last long.

Only then can people be willing to work for you and devote themselves to doing things well.

People like Zhuo Jing, who are stubborn and stubborn, are the most worthy of winning over and the easiest to win over.

Zhuo Jing kowtowed deeply again and said in an excited voice, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your magnanimity! Long live Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty! Long, long live Your Majesty!!"

After the ceremony.

Only then did he stand up and look at the young emperor in front of him.

But when his eyes fell on Zhu Yunhuan, he saw him wearing ordinary clothes and even sitting cross-legged in a nonchalant manner.
