Chapter 139
Zhu Xiongying noticed that Zhu Biao's eyes suddenly became sharp when he heard the word "Benefit".

The murderous intent contained in it was somewhat similar to that of the old man when he got angry.

It's just that the old man's eyes are like knives, chopping people's necks with one knife.And Zhu Biao's eyes were murderous, and he couldn't catch it unless he looked carefully.

People in later generations said that Zhu Biao was the prince of Taiping educated by literati.

But if you think about it carefully, how could he be a good old man? He is the crown prince brought out by the old man's precepts and deeds.He doesn't have the reckless air of the old man, he looks easy-going but has supreme majesty.And there is no lack of skill and scheming, but he is much more tactful than the old man in handling things.

"In the capital, the officialdom has come to this?" Zhu Biao ate the fish slowly, and whispered to Jiang Yu, "In broad daylight, you openly started talking about seeking the benefits that officials need?"

Jiang Yu looked over there with gloomy eyes, turned his head to Zhu Biao with a flattering face, "Master, since ancient times, officials have been like this, the bigger the official, the more restrained, and the small official with a little power in his hands , as soon as you get excited, you start to drift away, you dare to say anything, you dare to ask for any money!"

These words can't help but make Zhu Xiongying feel much better about Jiang Yu.

His words are indeed a portrayal of officialdom.

Zhu Xiongying also looked over there, and said, "There are still fewer kills!"

The administration of officials is a big problem. An emperor like the old man is unique throughout the ages.He is unique in killing corrupt officials, and he is not beheaded.

In the Ming Dynasty, there were countless severe punishments for corrupt officials, and the lightest one was to gouge out the knees.

Others were stripped of skins and filled with grass to light sky lanterns to make human skin mattresses and mummy statues.

It can be said that the old man used the cruelest things on corrupt officials.

But what about the results?

Can't kill!Unstoppable!

Think about the future generations, there is a so-called intellectual who waving a broken fan and talking nonsense in front of the screen.The reason why the Ming Dynasty could not kill corrupt officials was because the treatment of intellectuals was too low.

Given that little money, it is not enough for food and clothing. Let's see how the Song Dynasty treated intellectuals?

fart!nonsense!What nonsense!

People's greed will not be weakened by how much they get.

The Great Song Dynasty legalized corruption and love of money, what was the result?Scholar-bureaucrats are naturally proud when they become officials, but what about the common people?What about Jiangshan?What about Sheji?
Everyone is greedy, especially scholars.

Although Emperor Hongwu treated officials harshly, what about other emperors?

Scholars in the Ming Dynasty had privileges with fame and fame, especially those above Juren.

Isn't it money to give the tax-free land quota under your name to others?Isn't the tax exemption for other people's shops money?In the middle and late Ming Dynasty, all kinds of sex protection income had been legalized. Even Xu Jie, the chief assistant of the cabinet, paid as much as 9000 taels a year just for the land in his name.

He still wants to be greedy!
"There are still fewer kills!" Zhu Xiongying said with a smile, "Grandpa Huang kills a crop every few years, like cutting leeks, one side grows and the other grows!"

"Nonsense! What do you know?" Zhu Biao reprimanded, "Can this kind of thing be killed by killing people?" He said, sighing slightly, "This kind of thing can never be killed!"

On the table next to him, Huang Zicheng was also taken aback when he heard the word "benefit" from Zhang.

"This..." Huang Zicheng was a little bit shocked, looked around, and said in a low voice, "Brother, be careful! The current emperor hates these things the most. If others listen to it, I'm afraid something bad will happen! "

He had been in the capital for a long time, so he naturally knew that the imperial court dealt with corrupt officials severely.
"What are you afraid of?" The surname Zhang laughed, "How can such a thing be forbidden!" He said with a smile, "Besides, what I'm talking about is that if you want to get the benefits of an errand, it's not me, Mr. Zhang. Take advantage!"

"Furthermore, who cares if I wait for a small official like Zhima?"

"That's you, why don't I tell others?"

The person surnamed Zhang obviously didn't hear the persuasion in Huang Zicheng's words, so he continued to speak.

"I see you, you are stupid in reading, you don't even know the ways of the world!" He continued, "Didn't countless people rush to do it for the clerks in the yamen? How about that?"

"Seeking the benefits of officials is actually nothing more than three melons and two dates. The expenditure in the yamen is high, but it is used for public use. No one, with such shallow eyelids, will put it in their own pocket!"

"Then!" Huang Zicheng thought about it, "If you want to get a clerical job in the Yamen, how much... is it good?"

"Let's talk about the Ministry of Punishment!" The surname Zhang looked around and lowered his voice.Hold up three fingers, "These?"

"Thirty sticks?"

"Three hundred!" said the one surnamed Zhang, "Thirty pennies will kill you!"

"My God!" Huang Zicheng exclaimed, "I just want to ask for a job to support myself, so I don't want to eat free food. In order to participate in the palace examination in the future, if I have three hundred crowns, what kind of official job do I want?"

"Besides, the salary of the petty official is meager, when will the three hundred guan be earned back?"

"It's timid, isn't it? You don't believe me when you say you're stupid in reading!" The surname Zhang laughed, "Although the petty official is small, he has great power! Three hundred guan, hehe, it's just a matter of a document?"

"Ah?" Huang Zicheng became more and more puzzled, "How is this possible?"

"Forget it, I will teach you well today, or you will make detours in the future!" The surname Zhang took a sip of wine and continued in a low voice, "You said that the petty official is humble, but there is no shortage of such people in the yamen. The adults They are all superior, and they are the ones who do things, right!"

Huang Zicheng nodded.

"They are officials, but what they write are government documents with official seals, right?"

Huang Zicheng nodded again.

"The pens are in their hands, and they have to do things. Do you think they are humble? Do you say that three hundred pens is not worth it?"

Huang Zicheng seemed to understand but didn't understand, with a confused look on his face.

Zhu Xiongying on the side listened hard, secretly worried about Huang Zicheng's expression.

Why don't you understand?

Hades is better than a little devil!
The county magistrate might as well take care of it first!

~~~
"Let me tell you about a case!" The surname Zhang was a little drunk, "the spring of last year, a murder case occurred in Changshu. The murderer was the only son of the Zhou family, a wealthy local businessman, and he killed a widow with some pretty looks!"

"According to the trial of the Criminal Department of the Procuratorate, the only son of a rich businessman failed to occupy the widow, so he became angry and killed him!"

"The local chief secretary, according to the inspector, is directly asked to kill after Qiu?"

Huang Zicheng nodded and said, "This kind of murderer deserves to be killed!"

"It stands to reason that this person is hopeless, right?" The surnamed Zhang said with a smile, "This is the only son of a wealthy businessman! Three generations of single inheritance? Seeing that their Zhou family's wealth is cheap to others, it is unprecedented! His father thought, Send a woman to his son and leave him as a queen!"

"But the local prosecutor is ruthless, and just refuses to give it! He finally got someone to help him, but the problem is, he can't win it all at once, right? Guess what happened later?"

"What's wrong?" Huang Zicheng asked.

"This person should be executed after autumn, but he has been locked up for two years, and he is still locked up now! And he has given birth to several sons in succession!"

"Hiss! How is this possible?" Huang Zicheng said in shock.

"The person who did this is a small official from the Ministry of Punishment!" The person surnamed Zhang laughed.
