In the dark and cold cell, there was no trace of light except for a few faint candles hanging on the walls.

Even the candlelight is weak and can't help but the wind is as if it may be extinguished at any time.

This is where everyone in the Ming Dynasty was afraid of talking about it: the imperial prison!

In this place, dry, dirty blood can be seen on any corner of the wall. These solidified, air-dried and mottled reddish brown colors are soaked on every brick and stone, and are emitting a disgusting smell of blood all the time.

This was the first time Ma Dajun saw the imperial prison. He was particularly heavy because he entered as a criminal, sat on a special stool, his wrist was stuck in the shackles, and with a slight movement, he was rubbed into the pain of countless uneven iron mos.

However, Ma Dajun was not completely desperate, and he was even a little grateful to Zhu Yunwen for giving him this "treatment".

The issuance of an edict to the prison trial shows that in the emperor's heart, he did not completely punish himself for death.

Things can still be done.

In his ears, footsteps sounded, and Ma Dajun raised his head and saw several figures approaching with the dim candlelight.

He saw Zhu Di, who was burly and strong, and saw a handsome eunuch with a white face, who was the most popular close servant, Eunuch Sun, by the emperor.

Then, Ma Dajun also saw three second-rank officials wearing red and purple, rings and pearls and jade.

The Censorate, Dali Temple, the Minister of Justice, and the Three Laws arrived for him.

"Let people go first."

Seeing Ma Dajun's haggard face, Zhu Di immediately frowned and said dissatisfiedly.

"A man has come back from India for thousands of miles, but he has no intention of escaping. Are he wearing shackles and shackles?"

The solemn Jinyiwei in the prison did not move, and their system was destined not to buy the account of Zhu Di, the King of Yan.

"Let the person go and change to a more comfortable soft stool."

Shuangxi opened his mouth, which gave Zhu Di a face.

"The King of Yan is the chief judge, so the details of these branches are certainly based on what the King of Yan said."

This is neither soft nor hard, and it reminds Zhu Di.

Zhu Di smiled and was too lazy to be furious with Shuangxi, so he sat down and stretched out his hand.

"Please, Eunuch Sun."

After the five people sat down, Ma Dajun finally untied the layers of confinement that had been trapped on his body for two or three days, and was able to stretch his neck and shoulders.

The crackling sound of muscles and bones restored Ma Dajun to his former heroic spirit.

"The criminal general Ma Dajun thanked His Highness the King of Yan and thanked Eunuch Sun for his kindness."

"Okay, don't say polite words here, it's quite awesome."

Double joy put out a few proclamations on his own, licking the ink and lifting the pen.

"What you really should be grateful to is the emperor, who gave you another chance to confess your guilt.

Dingnan Hou, our family hopes that you can answer the next question truthfully, whether it is guilty or not, it is not our family who has the final say with King Yan."

Zhu Di glanced at him and saw a lot of words written on the imperial edict, all of which were collected by some information from the Jinyiwei, and he felt a sudden heart.

"The Marquis of Dingnan, commander-in-chief of Yunnan, commander-in-chief of the seven-nation coalition forces, was awarded the rank of Dragon and Tiger General.

The military officer train is further in the position of the Supreme Master, and he is the leader of the state of the country and has been specially promoted to the title of doctor."

After a few whispers, Shuangxi's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Ma Dajun, the information we have collected here on our family has a lot of impeachment about you.

Let me ask first, your salary is 2,000 taels a year, plus several rewards for making meritorious contributions. In recent years, it has only been a tens of thousands taels.

But you are in the Hou Mansion in Yunnan, occupying a huge area, luxurious interior, numerous strange stones, and rare birds.

In the eighth year of Jianwen, you even invited opera troupes from Huguang and Sichuan, and the pedestals were held for three days and three nights.

You can explain this question first.”

Zhu Di's eyebrows suddenly jumped.

He had some doubts and was puzzled before and could not understand the emperor's motives. Now, as soon as Shuangxi spoke, Zhu Di understood everything.

No wonder the emperor has appointed the three judicial departments to conduct trial!

Ma Dajun was not investigated by the emperor for just a matter of offering poison.

The omnipresent Jinyiwei found many problems. The emperor appointed the Three Jurisdictions to review the three Jurisdictions, which was to use the matter of the Ma Dajun to attack the chief officer of the Three Jurisdictions.

There is nothing the emperor doesn't know about the world.

The three legal departments in the country's offices, the censors and clerks stationed in the local area know everything they cannot find out.

So, is this also a warning to yourself?

Zhu Di's face was unpredictable, but his heart was already full of ripples.

Now he only feels that Zhu Yunwen, his eldest nephew, is becoming more and more unfamiliar.

"After the establishment of the Yunnan Commander Command, the military expansion was supplemented, with a full quota of 100,000 people, but the Ministry of War has not been fully invested in the past two years. Ma Dajun, are you getting an empty salary?"

As soon as this problem was thrown out, Zhu Di's color changed.

Empty salary is a complete sin of beheading.

His eyes were about to burst into flames, and Zhu Di stared at Ma Dajun fiercely and slapped the table: "Speak!"

"Things are not."

Ma Dajun was very calm about this problem and was not panicked.

"The number of troops in Yunnan Metropolitan has not been fully charged. The reason is that it is difficult to choose the best, and the last one will always abide by the recruitment regulations.

Those who are weak and weak and over-age will not be recruited. In addition, they have been fighting in recent years, and a group of people have died and supplemented, and the number of people is uncertain, so this situation occurs.

However, the matter of empty salary will never be done. The money that has not been used up every year will be sealed in the treasury of Kunming. The Yunnan Provincial Administrator can testify.

Because of geographical reasons, the extra silver was not transported back to Nanjing by the same route."

Zhu Di could not accept this explanation.

"Then why does the Logistics Department not receive any relevant memorials for this money every year?"

"I will not be able to read, and I will feel that the amount of about tens of thousands of taels is only available in a year. There is no need to make a big fight and ask the logistics department to send a specialist to count it."

Ma Dajun said quietly: "When the coalition forces conquered Zhangpuer, they only plundered the palace, and they received millions of gold and silver. Every time the army used troops, they obtained a lot of rewards. The rewards sent to the soldiers were not eighty or fifty taels.

Finally, I started from the army and knew that a Wuerang, a soldier, had a bloody life, and the annual salary was only twenty taels, so every time the reward was paid, I personally went to supervise it.

This point can be clarified by the three armies.

There are a lot of rewards and silver coins, so why are you greedy for nothing? This money is definitely still in the Yunnan treasury, one or two taels are not short!"

"That's really strange."

Shuang laughed happily: "Since Dingnan Hou is not greedy and can't be ink, how did this Hou's Mansion be built?"

The Ming Dynasty law has no property and unknown sins, but cannot explain it clearly, and is considered to be greedy!

As for greed, the Ming Dynasty's Laws are very clear:
Chapter completed!
