As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Zhan Hui realized something was wrong. He immediately knelt down and said in panic: "I dare not question what your majesty has written. I just used what I have learned in my life. When I saw what your majesty wrote for the first time, I was shocked in my heart. You can add more. This is a person who has lost his mind, uttered arrogant words, and lost his manners in front of the palace. I hope that your majesty will forgive me for the crime of disrespect."
"It's okay, get up."
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't care about such things. The method he gave was just deduced by him.
Although it is not something exquisite, for mortals with less than a hundred lives, it can be said to be shocking.
If he were not limited by this old body, Zhu Yuanzhang could still deduce more subtle rules, but the more subtle the deduction, the greater the load on his body.
Zhu Yuanzhang knew this very well, and the deduction he had just made was strictly controlled within the limits that he could bear. It could not only solve the problem at hand, but also put no pressure on himself.
Now that he was teaching people to fish, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer had to worry about Zhan Hui failing to complete the task, so he felt relieved and said: "Take this method and give us the results as soon as possible."
Zhan Hui knelt down and kowtowed, looking excited and overjoyed, and said: "With your Majesty's method, I guarantee that the results will be obtained in just two days."
As a second-rank official in the imperial court, Zhan Hui's knowledge is unparalleled and his sense of smell for all things is quite keen.
When he saw the method given by His Majesty just now, he secretly calculated in his heart that it turned out to be exactly the same.
It took him a full afternoon to read that account book before he could finish reading it and have a general understanding of the accounts in it.
Zhan Hui did not expect that His Majesty would be able to come up with such an ingenious method just by reading it casually.
Using this method to infer the entire account book, there is no error or omission at all. Zhan Hui is convinced that if there is any error or omission in it, it must be a problem with the account book.
Zhan Hui's face flushed with excitement. He seemed to have seen that with the popularity of His Majesty's method, a storm was about to sweep across the entire Ming Dynasty.
From now on, no account book can escape the detection of this method, and no one can falsify on the account book.
At least, Zhan Hui can be sure that absolutely no one can crack His Majesty's method at present.
His hand holding the paper trembled, and he said with excitement in his voice: "Your Majesty is a saint, I am so impressed that I am so impressed that I dare to ask your Majesty, does this method have a name?"
Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head. He didn't have time to choose a name. It was just random.
As a great cultivator in his previous life, he often created some interesting magical powers when he comprehended the heaven and earth and adjusted the yin and yang. Basically, it was just for fun, and he rarely gave it a name.
He would only give a name to those spells that were particularly interesting. Now this mortal calculation is boring and ordinary, so what's the point of giving it a name?
Seeing Zhan Hui's excited look, Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and said: "Zhan Hui, you are a smart man, you can choose this name."
"I...I thank you for Your Majesty's holy grace."
This simple sentence almost made Zhan Hui happy to death. He knelt on the ground and pondered for a long time, and then said: "Your Majesty's method is to follow the heavens and respond to the people, and start with calculations. The mystery of calculations has never been seen since ancient times. Minister. I think it can be called the 'Hongwu Algorithm'!"
Hongwu algorithm?
Zhu Yuanzhang always felt that this name was a bit strange, but he did not reject it and nodded: "Then let's call it 'Hongwu Algorithm'."
As soon as his words fell to the ground, he felt that the national destiny in his body became more active, as if it was nourished by the rain, and the volume became much larger.
This sudden situation surprised Zhu Yuanzhang. He did not expect that just a deduced "Hongwu Algorithm" would actually revive the national destiny of the Ming Dynasty.
Even the national destiny in his body became stronger and seemed to roar happily.
What really surprised Zhu Yuanzhang was that a mere mortal could actually make a difference between heaven and earth with his words and deeds.
He just proposed a method, and the national destiny has already felt that it has received blessings and gradually grown stronger.
This made him feel a little depressed in his heart. He suddenly felt bored and waved his hand and left.
After Zhu Yuanzhang left, Zhan Hui, who was so excited, couldn't help but jump up in the Wenhua Palace. If he hadn't been concerned about not making loud noises in the Forbidden City, he would definitely be screaming to the sky now.
After a full quarter of an hour, Zhan Huicai restrained his inner excitement, called the servants with a red face, and asked them to call over the group of officials who had fainted and vomited before.
Soon, everyone in the Wenhua Hall arrived. Except for Zhan Hui, everyone else had a bitter expression on their faces, and looked at the account books with a bit of fear.
Seeing that Zhan Hui was so happy, Chen Jing, the minister of the Ministry of Personnel, was puzzled and asked: "My lord's face is so red. Could it be that he has found a loophole in the account books?"
The others also looked at Zhan Hui in confusion. They really didn't know how he could laugh in the face of so many account books.
Could it be that reading too many account books has made your brain confused?
Just as he was doubting, Zhan Hui explained: "Everyone, what a great joy, what a great joy! Your Majesty has just arrived here, and the emperor has given you the Hongwu algorithm, which can solve our urgent needs!"
"Hongwu algorithm? This is strange, I have never heard of it."
"Yes, Mr. Zhan, please don't hide your secrets. You should show the Hongwu algorithm to us."
Zhan Huizhi was so proud that he took out the paper written by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, held it above his head with both hands, and said: "Your Majesty, please give me the calligraphy treasure 'Hongwu Algorithm'!"
When all the officials heard this, they immediately knelt down, chanted for a while, knelt down and worshiped, and then came forward to check.
After just one look, these smart people immediately changed their expressions when they put it together, and they couldn't help but say: "Hongwu's algorithm is so sophisticated, I wonder where your majesty got it."
"This method is so wonderful that only a saint can come up with it. Even if you and I try our best, we can't come up with such an algorithm."
"Master Zhan, could this Hongwu algorithm be taught by His Majesty himself?"
Everyone looked at Zhan Hui eagerly, hoping for an answer, and Zhan Hui naturally did not hide anything. He explained what happened, and when Zhu Yuanzhang asked him to name it, he was even more happy and his face was red.
"Master Zhan has been favored by the Holy Spirit and named this method. He is really envious of us."
"In all the civil and military dynasties, only Mr. Zhan has such an honor, but I can't wait to impress you."
"From now on, we will only follow the leader's lead."
Zhan Hui was very pleased with this bragging. After hearing it for a while, he waved his hand and said with a smile: "You're welcome, now it's all thanks to your majesty's trust, entrusting us with such an important task, and also giving the Hongwu algorithm. We, the ministers, must not disappoint His Majesty! No one can leave without results. We must thoroughly understand these account books!"
"With the Hongwu algorithm given by His Majesty, there will definitely be no problems."
Zhan Hui waved his hand and said boldly, "Let's start!"
The door of Wenhua Hall was closed, but the candles were not extinguished, and the sound of abacus resounded throughout the night.
On the morning of the fifth day of August, all the officials in the Wenhua Hall stared at the dark circles, but their expressions were full of excitement.
Using Hongwu's algorithm, in just two days, they checked all the account books of the Ministry of Accounts for six years and found out all the false accounts made by Zhao Mian.
Looking at the record book in his hand, Zhan Hui breathed a sigh of relief. In two days, he finally lived up to expectations and completed a large-scale reconciliation of the account books.
But at the same time, he was also extremely worried in his heart. According to their calculations, during the few years that Zhao Mian had been in office, the Ministry of Household Affairs was rotten from top to bottom, almost to the point of decay.
All the evidence of the crime is in the thin record book in Zhan Hui's hand, including the wealth and lives of the people in the household department.
Zhan Hui only felt that his lips were a little dry. He glanced at the exhausted staff and officials of the Supervisory Office, and bowed: "It's been a hard work for all of you, my lords, in the past two days, all night and day."
"It's not hard work to share His Majesty's worries. Mr. Zhan should think about how to get back to His Majesty."
