Rise From the Humble

"This battle only captured 477 Japanese pirates. How many heads can there be?"

All the officials of the Yan Party looked at Zhao Baihu with disapproval.

Haha, it can only hold up a thousand heads.

Just when the officials of the Yan Party were disapproving, Zhao Baihu clasped his fists and replied, "Sir, the total number of Japanese pirate heads presented by the Suzhou Prefecture delegation is 16,853. I counted them carefully. The number of heads has been confirmed without a doubt.”

Haha, more than 1,600

Damn it!

etc!

wrong!

How many? !

Sixteen thousand eight hundred and fifty-three? !

Are you kidding me? !

Are you sure you didn't say "thousands" instead of "ten thousand"? ! How could there be so many heads? ! Do you think the heads of Japanese pirates are just Chinese cabbage? You captured 16,853 heads at once? !

"Sixteen thousand eight hundred and fifty-three?!"

"More than ten thousand?!"

"Nearly 20,000 heads?!"

Suddenly there was a gasp in the hall, and all the officials exclaimed in disbelief.

"Tell me again, how many heads?" Yan Maoqing couldn't accept it and asked again in disbelief.

"Sir, there are a total of 16,853 Japanese pirate heads. I have counted them and confirmed that they are correct. They are consistent with the number reported by the Suzhou general." Zhao Baihu repeated it respectfully.

"Hey, there are actually 16,853 Japanese pirate heads?!"

"Is the head real or fake? Did he kill someone and pretend to be guilty?"

"The two armies faced each other. The battle was so fierce. Both sides would clean up the battlefield after the war. Is there any chance to cut off the heads of the Japanese pirates? There is no way that so many heads should be accounted for. No matter how you look at it, I feel suspicious."

After the officials of the Yan Party exclaimed again, they all raised questions, thinking that there were too many heads and it was worthy of doubt.

"Zhao Baihu, have you checked the head? Is it the head of a Japanese pirate?" Yan Maoqing asked with rapid breathing.

"Back to my lord, due to time constraints, Beizhang and others only made a brief inspection. After Beizhang's preliminary inspection, it was found that these heads were all men, with no women or children, and their ages were generally between seventeen or eighteen to more than forty years old. They are old and weak; about 30% of the heads of the Japanese pirates have hair ornaments, and the shave marks are old and not newly shaved. After inspection, the subordinates and others believed that the Japanese pirate heads were authentic, and no signs of killing good people and taking credit for their crimes were found."

Zhao Baihu replied truthfully.

Damn it!

So many of the heads are men, and they are all between the ages of seventeen or eighteen to forty years old. There are no old, weak, women or children, and the scars are still very old.

All these illustrate the authenticity of the Japanese pirate heads.

This all shows that that little bastard Zhu Ping'an has made extraordinary achievements in Jiangnan again! I'm so damn ready to be promoted!

This was unacceptable to the strict party officials.

Zhu Ping'an, that damn little bastard, has been promoted to deputy envoy of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Provincial Department of Punishment and Prosecution. This is a senior official of the fourth rank, and he has to be promoted again. Let me think about it, destroying 40,000 Japanese, hey, this is ridiculous How many levels should I upgrade? !

How old is this damn little bastard Zhu Ping'an? If he gets promoted, won't he become the boss of the department? !

The frequency of this little bastard's meritorious deeds is too fast and too high! There are so many Japanese pirates in Jiangnan, how many more achievements will this little bastard have to make!

If you continue to perform meritorious service, do you want to join the cabinet? !

Damn it, if a little bastard like Zhu Ping'an were to enter the cabinet, it would be unimaginable that this little bastard could also write poetry, and he could write it very well, and he could also write nonsense food-related poetry. , it is said that Xiyuan’s strategy of turning the tables came from this little bastard. If this little bastard joined the pavilion, wouldn’t he have to divide a large part of Mr. Yange’s holy favor? !

Also, Yan Ge is quite old.

If Yan Ge Lao retires.

Damn it, Xu Jie, a dishonest old boy, and Zhu Pingan, a little bastard, have a relationship between master and disciple! The relationship between the two of them is extraordinary! Just now, the old boy Xu Jie was speaking for Zhu Pingan!

If Mr. Yan Ge retires, won't the cabinet be occupied by the two teachers and students? ! ! Hasn’t the cabinet become their world? ! Zhu Pingan was the one who helped Yang Jisheng revise the old memorial to impeach Yan Ge! If Yang Jisheng hadn't been pedantic and ignored Zhu Ping'an's advice, Mr. Yan Ge would have been in danger! If the two teachers and students are in power, then they are not allowed to liquidate the members of their strict party? !

This picture is simply unimaginable!

"It hasn't been discovered yet. You just haven't discovered it yet. The heads are all men, and they are all young adults. It cannot be ruled out that the possibility of killing good people and taking advantage of merit cannot be ruled out, or it is not impossible that they specifically look for good citizens who are young and middle-aged to kill good people and take advantage of merit. What? The number of heads presented by Suzhou Prefecture is unparalleled in recent years. It is closely related to causing trouble. Whether any of them killed good people and took credit for meritorious deeds needs to be thoroughly investigated." An official from the Ministry of War used his "professional" quality , argued forcefully.

In fact, the strict party officials also knew that Zhu Ping'an and others had a clear conscience when they dared to present their heads to the capital. These heads were not afraid of investigation and could withstand investigation, but they were unwilling to do so.

"Okay, let the Ministry of Punishment, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Dali Temple and the factory guards interrogate and verify the prisoners and heads presented by Suzhou Prefecture. In addition, Feige Legend went to the factory guards of Suzhou Prefecture and ordered them to investigate openly and covertly to see if any unscrupulous civilians were killed during the war. There are so many heads of people who killed good people and took credit for their crimes. If there are people who killed good people and took credit for their crimes, they must be involved in a wide range of things and it is impossible to cover them up."

Emperor Jiajing on the dragon throne gave the order directly.

"I obey the order."

Officials from the Ministry of Punishment, the Supervisory Office, and Dali Temple who were named by Emperor Jiajing bowed to accept the order.

"You are in the capital and must give me the results within three days." Emperor Jiajing gave them a three-day deadline.

"According to the order."

Naturally, the officials did not dare to disobey Emperor Jiajing's will.

"Huang Jin, you are in charge of factory security. Suzhou is not close. I will give you ten days and you must give me the results."

Emperor Jiajing ordered Huang Jindao again.

"Old slave, I obey the order." Huang Jin knelt down to accept the order.

"Okay, this matter is over. Let's continue discussing the treatment of the Japanese pirates in the south of the Yangtze River." Emperor Jiajing ordered everyone to continue discussing the Japanese pirates in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Your Majesty, Zhang Jing, the governor of Jiangnan, Jiangbei, Zhejiang, Shandong, Fujian, Huguang and other military affairs, has not been short of time. Not only has he been unable to make achievements, but he has even been delayed in taking action. However, Zhao Wenhua went to Jiangnan to worship the sea and soon achieved success. The great victory of Jihai, Suzhou Prefecture also achieved victory over the Japanese pirates. The Holy One had high hopes for Zhang Jing, but Zhang Jing failed to live up to His Majesty’s trust. The Japanese pirates in Jiangnan are becoming more and more serious, and Zhang Jing has no choice but to take responsibility. Please punish Zhang Jing."

After receiving instructions from Yan Song's eyes, a censor from the Yan Party stood up to impeach Zhang Jing. After becoming the governor, he made no achievements.

"What Wang Yushi said is true. Zhang Jing has never launched a war against the Japanese pirates since he was the governor of Jiangnan. At best, he is just a corpse, but at worst, I even suspect that Zhang Jing is self-respecting in raising Japanese."

Immediately, another strict member of the Party stood up to echo him, and his words were even harsher. (End of chapter)
