Chapter 194: Cleaning up the officialdom, Lao Zhu burst into tears!
With Huang Zicheng, Qi Taizhengfa, Zhao Mian, the Minister of Household Affairs, committed suicide, Prince Consort Ouyang Lun was executed, a large number of officials were implicated in the case and were imprisoned, and the situation in the DPRK also changed a lot.
The increase in commercial tax was finally implemented.
Almost overnight, the commercial taxes received by the imperial court skyrocketed.
However, the taxes that many small businesses and hawkers need to pay have been reduced by more than half.
In the tea shed on the pier, the shopkeeper was very busy.
Only after Taisun's private visit incognito was published in the newspapers did he know that the people who came that day were actually His Highness Taisun and his entourage.
Taisun personally came to investigate and deal with the commercial taxes and killed Ouyang Lun, the consort. The commercial taxes levied on his tea shed were also reduced from thirty taels a month to thirty taels.
And because His Highness Taisun had been here, it attracted countless people to visit.
Let’s taste the tea that His Highness Taisun once drank.
The tea shed business is naturally booming.
The establishment of the People's Supervision Department directly reversed that situation.
"When Huang Zicheng was executed, Qi Tai also complained to us. He cared about the love of flesh and blood. Sure enough, we were right about me."
But the rewards given were very generous.
Lao Zhu looked at the information he received in his hand and suddenly burst into tears.
Unless there is an ordinary order from the grandson, it can't be done.
Moreover, if you have developed a habit over a long period of time, you will inevitably think that big cases are worthy of investigation and that it is too fussy.
"Start from the big picture and put an end to big corruption, then the social atmosphere will be bad."
Lao Zhu once killed many people and shed rivers of blood, but he still did not have many officials to dominate the people.
But that system is, to a certain extent, just a formality.
On the 18th, the scholar Yang Shiqi, who was a commoner and had meritorious service in trying the Qi Tai case, was promoted by the grandson Jian and was given the position of walking in the advisory office and counselor of government affairs.
Even if he didn't have such thoughts, he would still be frightened to dare to go even half a step beyond the thunder pool.
Yangshan.
As a result, it is inevitable that one generation will be like the other.
For those arrested in the capital, the longest stay would be more than two days.
Therefore, the people who were originally selected to retire to the Imperial Guard were all descendants of aristocratic families, or had achieved great military exploits, or received favors from the imperial court, so we were worried about letting those people stay in the imperial palace.
People can only endure special things.
After all, before the new king ascended the throne, he was a minister of the dragon.
With the new army in hand, plus newspapers, pens and guns, he no longer had any scruples.
The Civil Supervision Department transferred that system to a controlled institution.
Seventh, Jinyiwei is also a military household in essence. According to Xiao Ming law, military households are hereditary.
But there are eight problems. First, the Jin Yiwei still has the responsibility of guarding the imperial palace. If the Jin Yiwei is used to investigate officials, his power will not be too small.
The atmosphere in Jinling's officialdom has changed.
If the arrest is made at a local level, in principle, the person will still be handed over to the judicial department at the lower level of the local government before interrogation.
But as time goes by, ideas will quickly change.
Of course, that was what happened in the past. At most, today's Jin Yiwei can still be regarded as the best among the best.
I just found out today that this is the case!
The people who retreated after that, except for Yao Guangxiao, the demon monk, were all minor ministers with little reputation in the court.
Although he may lose his head and even get slapped on the wall, he will be scolded severely and he will also be noted down.
To be able to enter the palace as a bodyguard, one must ensure the absolute loyalty of the candidate.
Today, the high ground of public opinion has been firmly occupied by People's Daily.
Geng Yuxi even issued an order that all the noble sons of the dynasty, or those who were not officials in the dynasty, would be allowed to join the Civil Supervision Department within eight generations.
Official corruption, bribery, and various illegal behaviors all ended with one major event after another.
Before Lao Zhu died, there were questions about his succession.
We dare to bully people at will, because we are really afraid that people will report to the People's Supervision Department.
Zhu Yunzhen personally gave us lectures many times. Because of the ordinary nature of the People's Supervision Department, the methods must be as severe as possible when handling cases.
…
Now that Geng Yujuan has entered the office of counselor in commoner clothes, it naturally attracts the attention of both the government and the public.
The small and big officials in the Civil Supervision Department are all awarded grades, and like the scholars who have passed the examination, they enjoy the privilege of paying taxes.
But before Geng Yujuan retreated to the Counselor's Office, she was very cautious and never said a word, which was also a heavy talk about state affairs. She just stayed aside and listened silently, studying hard, and she was not excluded by too little.
"We have formulated so few mild punishments and killed so few people, but the number of corrupt officials is getting smaller and smaller."
The direction of public opinion naturally shifted based on Zhu Yunxun's will.
Any newly appointed official, when he first became an official, did he have any thoughts of corruption?
As for the People's Supervision Department established by Geng Yuxi, it is necessary to start from the big picture and prevent the slightest changes.
Who could be that stupid?
Although Lao Zhu left the court.
Because what is a big thing in the eyes of officials may not be a trivial matter in the eyes of the people.
From now on, when the imperial court kills corrupt officials, the people will not just watch and watch.
The eighth reason is even more critical. When Jinyiwei was first established, it did not have an extremely transcendent status.
If so, even if the killing is stopped, it can only treat the symptoms, and the law can cure the root cause.
He no longer dares to be too arrogant and domineering in front of the people.
"Instead of waiting until you have been greedy for eighty taels of silver and then beheading you, let's start by punishing you for greedy one penny."
That was what Geng Yuxun decided to set up after careful consideration.
The Civil Supervision Department has no rank, but it does not have the power to handle cases.
Nowadays, the changes in the officialdom are generally small changes in the attitude of the officials who deal with them on a daily basis, but they are more visible and tangible.
It is the soil for corruption to occur, which is the most critical.
After all, a small number of times, we actually don’t have much interaction with each other.
The Civil Supervision Department requires everyone to be a special citizen and come from a civilian background.
In a sense, preventing corruption is more important than punishing corruption.
We investigate special cases.
Two days ago, he must either be transferred to the Ministry of Justice or released.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Beware of small things, don't think of good deeds as big ones."
I considered using Jinyiwei directly.
By now, that system has ceased to exist in name only.
"If the atmosphere is small, it will be difficult for the soil of small greed to survive! Even if it can be eliminated, it can still reduce forty-four percent. That is the root solution!"
What Jin Yiwei investigates has always been small and important cases.
Although the counselor did not have a rank or real power in Zhu Yunxian's design, he only served as an adviser to the emperor.
The second is to let go of any major event.
For a time, the people of Jinling City praised him.
Although Your Majesty is currently recuperating here, the political affairs committee is with the Grandson.
The establishment of the People's Supervision Department is not to prevent and cure that kind of situation.
Yes, Zhu Yunzhen also stipulated that the People's Supervision Department must use punishment.
As a result, everyone from the junior and middle-level officials of the first-rank court to the official servants of any rank became more disciplined in their affairs.
No one is willing to be reported by the people for a small matter, and invited to "drink tea" by the People's Supervision Department.
Personnel is independent, and all personnel appointments are decided by the general manager, reported directly to the grandson, and are subject to the assessment of the Ministry of Personnel.
The initial prosecution and trial must be handed over to the judicial department.
There are legends about Taisun everywhere in the market.
Everyone can feel that the official master has changed and the official difference has changed.
Case handling is independent, and the Civil Supervision Department does not have independent powers of investigation, arrest, or interrogation.
During the merit examination, the evaluation will be higher, and the official career will be affected from then on.
There is no difference between working next to me and working next to the emperor.
In other words, the Civil Supervision Department only has the power to investigate and handle cases, but it does have the power to convict people.
In fact, in the early Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu gave the judges the power to transfer people to justice.
But as the supervision of the People's Supervision Department continued to deepen, that phenomenon quickly disappeared.
If you sue an official for a major matter, you will only be considered a "treacherous person".
At the same time, I ordered the People's Daily to create public opinion and publicize the People's Supervision Department, so that ordinary people can come here to report the illegal behavior of officials.
It might get worse.
Once there is no slack, the tide of corruption will retaliate with even less force.
But after all, if you can retreat to the Councilor's Office, you are working in the Queen's office.
It ranges from collecting taxes of a few pennies, to government officials asking for bribes of a few pennies from businessmen, to officials building mansions and buying land...all are within the scope of the supervision of the Civil Supervision Department.
Let us exercise our power to supervise the integrity of the government. Even small things are bad. If it is a particularly big thing, it is inevitable that we will resort to favoritism.
The "sugar-coated bullets" mentioned in the previous life are the same.
How difficult is it for the common people to try to force officials to do so?
In addition, as soon as the People's Supervision Department was established, an anti-corruption agency was set up internally to gently warn all personnel that corruption would cost a penny.
We hate that kind of behavior, but when we experience it personally, we are not numb at all.
The establishment of newspapers and periodicals reversed the situation in which literati and poets controlled public opinion.
"It's bad! It's bad for the People's Supervision Department!"
During Lao Zhu's period, it happened a few times.
After that, if the people want to sue the officials, the prerequisite is that the crime committed by the officials must be very minor.
But he knew everything about Jinling's movements.
I have fought against corruption all my life, but as I grow older I feel more and more powerful.
It’s the same as Xiaoming’s Yamen.
At the same time, Taisun Dian issued an edict to establish an institution called the People's Supervision Department, and Yang Shiqi was also appointed as the first general manager of the People's Supervision Department.
But precisely because of this, those people actually have no relatively close contacts with officials in the DPRK and China.
At the same time, the People's Supervision Department is completely independent of the various agencies of the imperial court. The financial funds are directly paid, approved by the grandson personally, and listed separately, and then apply for funds from the Ministry of Household Affairs.
Lao Zhu's punishment was very similar.
The recruited personnel first went through training.
Stop taking advantage of your position to seek greater personal gain, and then you will become less and less courageous.
If it is really not necessary to escort him to the capital, he must inform the local government and obtain permission from the superiors before he can be escorted.
But everyone knows that the grandson's position in his eyes is already secure and shaky.
Promotion and advancement are natural principles.
