He was a civil official and also studied, but at the same time he also followed people like Zhu Yuanzhang and Fu Youde through the turbulent times.

Sometimes the words he spoke were not so polite.

"Old Zhan, what kind of magical power does His Majesty have?!" He looked at Zhan Hui beside him in disbelief and asked in disbelief.

Although Zhan Hui was in charge of the Ministry of Personnel and the Censorate.

But how smart was he? He knew a thing or two about these accounts and the intricacies of the matter, and he was as shocked and bewildered as Fu Youwen.

He gave Fu Youwen a helpless look.

"You ask me, who should I ask? Since His Majesty has published the story in the newspaper, it must be true!"

Fu Youwen also calmed down.

He looked a little emotional and nodded in agreement.

they know.

The emperor who seemed carefree on weekdays did some absurd things sometimes, but in fact, he could see things more clearly and far-sightedly than anyone else, and he would not bother to say anything nonsense about such things.

The two whispered.

The surroundings, front, back, left, and right, or rather the entire outer hall of Zuiyue Tower, which was packed with people, was already in a state of bustle and excitement.

"Is this really the truth? Your Majesty's keen eyes caught those corrupt people!? They deserve it! They deserve it! Why would they be so greedy towards Your Majesty? Your Majesty is wise!"

"This is no longer a matter of wisdom or ignorance!"

"Your Majesty's method... is too mysterious!" There are also smart people among the people who can see that this trick is unusual.

When saying this.

He even sighed with regret, "It's a pity that the late emperor didn't know about this mysterious method. Otherwise, there would have been more bloodshed in the Hongwu Dynasty!" If we look at which emperor in history hated official corruption the most, no one can surpass Zhu Yuanzhang! When this topic is brought up, people naturally think of him.

After the man finished speaking, he immediately raised his voice to the old man on the stage, curiously asking, "Old sir! Lord Zhuo, can you tell me how Your Majesty was able to single out the account books containing the most serious corruption cases from so many?"

The old man on the platform smiled and shook his head.

He said, "Lord Zhuo said that he also didn't know about Your Majesty's secret. It's best if no one knows about this secret!"

The old man finished speaking.

Then he seemed to suddenly realize something, patted his head, and a look of sudden enlightenment appeared on his old, wrinkled face: "Not bad! Not bad! It's best if no one knows this secret!"

In the past, people told stories, and now they read newspapers. They can read and recognize words, and their minds are filled with various storybooks, ancient and modern history, and secret anecdotes, so they can understand things naturally.

His already cloudy eyes narrowed slightly, and he sighed, "No one else knows, but those with ulterior motives must be cautious! They must worry about...whether their deception will be exposed by His Majesty, leading to the wrath of the emperor!"

He sat on a high platform.

It has always been the focus of everyone's attention.

Even if he didn't deliberately set the rhythm when he said this like before, the sound was still caught by most people.

And he has said so much.

Even ordinary people understood the involvement and interests involved. The noisy voices of the crowd suddenly died down for a moment, and then everyone's faces showed a look of sudden enlightenment.

"Sir, you're absolutely right! Hahahahahaha! At first, I was just thinking about how amazing the mystery here was, but I never considered this! Your Majesty is truly far-sighted!"

"Now... many people must be shivering with fear!"

"Your Majesty is wise! Those corrupt officials! Don't let any of them escape! They should all be apprehended by Your Majesty and have their tendons torn out!"

"That's right! Our current emperor is very capable! Let's see who dares to be greedy again!"

"Great! Great! Hahahahahahahahahaha!"

"..."

After a fleeting moment of silence, the entire outer hall of Zuiyue Tower was plunged into an unprecedented level of cheers and noise.

They realize.

This time, the imperial envoy's tour of inspection on behalf of the emperor uncovered several major corruption cases, which represented more than just a few cases. Instead, it was a powerful warning to the entire Ming Dynasty court, and the tigers they were warning were from the officials in the capital to those who were just sitting there doing nothing but eating and drinking!

The people are the ones who know best how powerful and hateful corrupt officials are.

How can I not be happy at this moment!?

Everything looks like it's Chinese New Year. It's almost Chinese New Year, and the atmosphere is very tense. Now it adds a bit of the festive atmosphere.

"Knock the mountain to scare the tiger, and the real purpose will be revealed." Feeling the lively atmosphere around him where everyone was laughing and cheering "Your Majesty is wise", Zhan Hui stood in the crowd with his hands behind his back and said calmly.

Fu Youwen also nodded: "This New Year, the common people have a good time, but some people may not have a good time..."

After saying that, he raised his head and looked at the boxes in the sky that had only half of their windows open.

The lower floors of Zuiyue Tower are for ordinary customers and common people, while the upper floors are special VIP boxes. At this time, there are almost one to several high-ranking officials and nobles sitting in each box.

No matter how strict Zhu Yuanzhang's rule was and how harsh he was in cracking down on corruption.

But money can never be as tempting as money, and there are always people who take risks. In the past, they relied on their own caution and secrecy.

But what about now?

Near the Lunar New Year, a special edition of a journal suddenly went on sale. A sword hung high above the Ming Dynasty, emitting a chilling cold light... No one knew when this sword would fall, or on whose head it would fall...

How are we going to spend this year?
