Great Ming: The Poorest County Magistrate, and the Hongwu Emperor Is Livid!

In the tenth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang received a secret report that the Fengyang county magistrate was embezzling public funds, persecuting loyal subjects, taking bribes, and exploiting the locals! Furious, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to travel to Fengyang with Empress Ma and investigate incognito. To his surprise, the people of Pei County lived in peace and prosperity, with plenty to eat and warm clothes to wear. But the next scene left him dumbfounded. The county magistrate had invested in gambling dens and brothels, and become Pei County’s protector. Zhu Yuanzhang: “I can’t take this anymore. I’m killing that brat today!” Zhu Biao: “Father, you mustn’t. He’s a capable minister who can help govern the country!” Su Mu: “Your Majesty, hear me out! I really was just trying to rescue women who’d gone astray!”
