Chapter 206 Emperor Sword
Yang Yuying was thinking about this matter in her heart, and she couldn't help but pay attention.
After almost two cups of tea, Zhao Yan came back. He entered the door and sat down to eat the already cold fried rice cooker. After eating seven or eight in one breath, he sighed: "People's hearts are different, and I can't do anything about it."
Jiang Yuan and his soldiers smashed the home of the man who wanted to force his fiancée.
Not only did he smash it, he also arranged for the other party to commit evil behavior or to send the person to prison for the crime of secret spies.
Zhao Yan was silent: "What kind of place is the Imperial City Department?"
This person has a good identity and is actually accustomed to the way the nobles do things.
He has also seen Jiang Yuan’s methods many times.
However, he always felt that it would be a very scary thing if the Imperial City Secretary indulged in such behavior.
Yang Yuying chuckled: "I feel that there is no need for you to worry."
Is it the emperor who is so foolish?
Or is it that Zou Yan and Zou are not smart enough?
They only came for a few days, and they were in a dark state and knew nothing, so just watch.
The days that followed were still calm. Soon, three months had passed in the year's inspection period. On an ordinary morning, in Songde Hall, Mr. Jiang Tanqi, came from outside the door and did not attend classes when entering the house. He only whispered: "Jiang Yuan, Gao Ming, Xue Tonghui, Wei Wu, Shen Yun, you five can pack up and leave the Imperial City Department."
The five people were stunned.
After Jiang Tanqi finished speaking, he ignored them again.
There were soldiers outside the door who came over to ask these people to go out to pack things.
The Songde Hall was immediately in an uproar, and the five people looked at each other in surprise. Jiang Yuan said angrily: "Mr. Jiang, what do you mean?"
Others also said, "We were all transferred to the Imperial City Division. If you want us to leave, you must have a reason."
"Mr. Jiang Yuan, I, Jiang Yuan, have been in the Imperial City Department for three and a half years. I think I am diligent and not a person who is in a position. Now I have the opportunity to be promoted to the Imperial City Department's inner court. But isn't your actions insulting?"
Mr. Jiang was silent for a moment, took out the file book, and slumped on the table and said calmly: "Jiang Yuan, on July 21, he told a woman who was a consultant of the Royal City Yangling Department, and violated the precepts. On July 27, he led his soldiers to participate in the round-up and thieves, and violated the rules. On August 1st, you deliberately took soldiers back to your hometown to intimidate the neighbors, and violated the precepts..."
Mr. Jiang finished speaking one by one and paused, "There are other violations, but you have a group of good colleagues who have helped you get through it carefully, so I won't mention it now."
Jiang Yuan's face turned pale because of anger: "It's because of these little things?"
Mr. Jiang ignored it and read the things that others committed one by one.
These people looked a little wrong, confused and aggrieved. Gao Ming couldn't help but say, "I did, but... Besides, no one raised any objections when I did it. The soldiers of the Imperial City Department followed all the followers..."
Mr. Jiang nodded: "Yes, my Imperial City Army soldiers did nothing wrong. They are not decision makers. Their only mission is to implement them meticulously after you issue the order."
After saying this, he paused and said, "Because the Imperial City Department knew that you were making a mistake, but never stopped it. Therefore, your foul or the precepts will not be recorded in the file this time."
"It's not a bad thing for you to leave here now, so let's go."
Jiang Yuan and others were all angry and resentful, but they still had to leave in the end.
There is a quiet place in Songde Hall.
Mr. Jiang sighed: "Inside the Imperial City Department, everyone says that your year of inspection is both an inspiration, a torture, and a protection. Climbing up is not necessarily a good thing, which means that from now on, you will be covered by your life, and not a bad thing if you don't climb up. You may not be a bad thing, so you may not be a bad thing because of this."
On this day, Mr. Jiang told them a few gossips that he had only said once.
He said that most of the people who have worked in the Imperial City Department for more than ten years have regretted it because it is indeed more painful than happiness.
"You have passed the first level of this year's inspection."
As he said that, Mr. Jiang glanced at Yang Yuying and asked Yang Yuying to pass. The superior even had to hold a meeting to discuss it. Finally, he wrote to Chief Zou, who decided to let her pass.
There was no problem with other people's performance.
"Although it's gone, it's not necessarily a good thing, there are still eighty-one difficulties in the future."
"If it's all over, then congratulations, you may have to learn to endure hardship before you achieve success or be cleared."
Once the first level passed, let alone Zhao Yan and others breathed a sigh of relief, they felt as relaxed as their bosses.
The inspection of the Imperial City Department is really troublesome.
Since its establishment, it has encountered countless crises, several serious internal corruptions, and two splits that almost made their organization disappear. Later, after its reconstruction, the officials at that time concluded a conclusion.
The great crisis of the Imperial City Department over the years has been experiencing the inflated desire for power among internal personnel.
Once this desire is released, it will cause great disasters.
Imperial City Si Zilai is the confidant of the emperor, and most of the errands they do are difficult, and if necessary, they need to have the privilege of self-dedication.
All the emperors of the Dashun Dynasty admitted that the Imperial City Office was a person holding a heavy weapon, and the emperor granted the Emperor's sword to them and allowed them to use the Emperor's authority.
But it is this trust that has put the Imperial City Department in danger at all times.
At the beginning, the Imperial City Department selected envoys, and all kinds of people accepted it. There were serious Confucian scholars, street fighters, and many of them had low origins, and later they reached a high position.
Emperor Taizong did not care about the origin of his confidants. Moreover, the precepts of the Imperial City Department were also strict. Any envoys of the Imperial City Department did not obtain personal wealth, and his Majesty personally selected personnel to arrange food, clothing, housing and transportation. Relatives and friends should stay away from the court's actual positions. They should not get married or have children during their tenure. After leaving the office, they can return home, marry, or be cared for by the court.
At that time, Emperor Taizong probably wanted a group of lonely ministers, so lonely that there was nothing except what the emperor gave him.
At least you should be free of any worries when doing things.
Anyway, the Imperial City was not a good place to go.
No matter how strict the rules are, they cannot control people's hearts. Emperor Taizong also discovered that people who have no worries are too easy to betray and are not easy to use.
The rules have been changed several times, and not to mention the personnel at the bottom of the Imperial City Department, who can join the top management, the first thing is to do is not an ambitious person who cannot control his own power.
Even if you have the ability to fly and escape from the earth, you cannot ask for any defects in your mind.
It doesn't matter if the emperor uses people elsewhere, but it doesn't matter if he doesn't have high requirements for morality. A good person who is moral but useless, and a useful villain. If the emperor wants to use villain, it's not impossible, but if he handed over the Imperial City to a villain, it would be very lively.
Not to mention villains, even gentlemen may not be able to bear this burden.
If a gentleman's desire expands, it is sometimes terrible.
Therefore, now when the Imperial City Office selects people, the first thing to do is to remove those who are selfish and have strong desires.
If such people are still given the authority that the Imperial City Minister has, it is definitely a sign of chaos in the world.
After Mr. Jiang's conversation that day, Yang Yuying and others' studies suddenly became heavier, and their isolation from the rest of the Imperial City Department naturally disappeared.
