Chapter Three Hundred and Twenty One Wants to Become Good Governance
There are many sects of Tibetan Buddhism. In addition to the Pazhu Kagyu sect that controls the local political power in Usi Tibet, there are also the Karma Kagyu sect with influence in Sichuan, Kham, and Uizang, as well as the still powerful Sakya sect and the Sakya sect that has not yet risen.
The Gelug Sect, etc., each sect has a wide range of believers and strength.
To be honest, Zhu Biao is not too clear about the relationship between them and the contradiction between their teachings, but it doesn't matter, lamas are still human beings, they are not Buddhas, so they all have the weaknesses of human nature, and that is enough.
In the end, Namgyalpa Zangbu also asked for an interview with the Ming Emperor. Zhu Biao just said that he would pass it on. As for whether Lao Zhu would meet or not, it was not certain. After all, his father did not have a good sense for religion, and he did not know if it was true.
Because I had a bad time at Huangjue Temple.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites will be responsible for what will happen next. Zhu Biao met in person to show his attitude. Most of the forces in the Ming Dynasty and Wusizang did not have any conflict. It can be said that peace will benefit both sides, and Pazhu is everyone's enemy.
After Zhu Biao received the old lama, the morning court was over. Hundreds of civil and military officials were coming out of Fengtian Hall. Their steps were a little hurried. It was interesting to watch their expressions. Some people were happy and some were sad. So many of the six tribes were captured.
Of course, there are a lot of vacant positions for people, and they are all plum jobs.
Zhu Biao walked straight towards the Jinshen Palace. After the announcement, he walked in to meet his father. Lao Zhu was so busy that he had no time to raise his eyes. The more officials he killed, the more government affairs were left behind. Lao Zhu also
I can't trust the newly appointed officials, so I have to handle many government affairs myself.
Upon seeing this, Zhu Biao naturally stepped forward and picked up a stack of memorials, and sat on the table and chair on the other side. The eunuch waiting on the side quickly prepared his pen and ink. Zhu Biao exhaled and started to review. This thing is naturally important, after all.
It is related to the operation of national government, but it is not difficult to say it. After all, it is necessary to do it again every day, and it is really boring.
The centralization of power has reached this point. For example, if there is any slight disturbance, officials must ask for instructions. They will never dare to make decisions without authorization. Even if the situation is urgent and they have to handle it independently, they will report it in detail afterwards. In fact, this is the case in most memorials.
.
Time passed little by little, and the only sounds in the Jinshen Hall were the rustling of papers and pens and ink being scratched on them. The servants serving in the hall were like pillars, standing aside silently except for pouring tea and changing ice cream.
After more than an hour, Zhu Biao casually placed his pen on the inkstone and rubbed his sore wrist: "Father, Namgyalpa Zangbu wants to see you."
Lao Zhu also put down his pen and leaned on the chair to rest and said casually: "No, we don't have that free time. Regardless of whether they are monks, lamas or Taoist priests, they are all the same thing. Most of them are dedicated to themselves and only want to become a Buddha and achieve Taoism.
It is of no use to the country or the family, and if I have the time to waste my time with them, it would be better to kill a few more corrupt officials."
Zhu Biao didn't take it seriously, and then asked about the status of the imperial envoys who went on inspection. Although it had only been a short time, they should have visited several states and counties. I don't know what the results were.
This kind of news from the Imperial Envoy will naturally not go through the Zhongshu Province. In the past, it was conveyed by the pro-military Duwei Mansion. Now it is the General Affairs Envoy who is responsible for it and delivers it directly to the imperial court. Although the General Affairs Envoy Chen Youzong is Zhu Biao's person,
But he would never inquire into such a thing without permission.
Lao Zhu's face turned cold when he talked about this matter: "It's very bad. They have discovered many problems around the capital. Corruption, bribery and misappropriation of public funds are common trivial matters. They allow slaves to shield evil people and oppress good people.
People are being forced to buy, sell or even traffic in human beings under the authority of their power, all under our eyes, let alone other places where the emperor is far away."
Zhu Biao was not surprised when he heard this. This was all expected. If not, how could Zhu Yuanzhang launch a wave of purging officials at this not-so-good time? Corruption is really getting worse.
It has been four years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, and people's uprisings in remote areas are still coming in an endless stream. Although they are just small uprisings, a single spark can start a prairie fire. If this situation is not curbed, once a large-scale natural disaster occurs, the people will have no way out.
If you add grudges to life, it is not impossible that dragons and snakes will rise and earth will be turned upside down. The size of the people of Ming Dynasty is not comparable to that of Goryeo.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while and said: "This year's scientific examinations must be advanced in advance to recruit talents to supplement the imperial court. That old guy Song Lian ran away. Who do you want to be the chief examiner? How about you come?"
Zhu Biao hurriedly shook his head and refused. The purge of officialdom had already begun. These idiots must be replenished after passing the exam. They are not young anymore. The customs they have accepted since childhood are the same old habits. Even if Zhu Biao begs them not to be greedy, they will not be greedy.
Yong's nature is hard to change, and according to his prediction, none of the candidates in the past few years will develop well.
It is estimated that one among a hundred people can live to two years later. It is not only their personal problem, but the general environment. In the final analysis, Zhu Yuanzhang was not to punish corrupt officials, but to reverse the trend. If his anti-corruption was simply
It would be wrong to take it as a wanton revenge because of a bad life as a child.
Who doesn’t know that when the water is clear, there will be no fish, and when the people know it, there will be no disciples. Lao Zhu was from a low background, but after years of study, his cultural level is not low. He can go from begging to sitting on the world, how can he not be so sophisticated in human nature?
Understand?
As early as the second year of Hongwu, the edict made it very clear that if the evils of corruption are not corrected, good governance will never be achieved. It’s not that I don’t want to simmer slowly, but it’s really that the atmosphere left by the Yuan Dynasty is too bad. Although they have been beaten
Back on the grassland, the poison of corruption is still spreading.
The corrupt grassroots officials of the Yuan Dynasty have now transformed into the grassroots officials of the Ming Dynasty. They still take advantage of various loopholes to make money. Even the county magistrates sent by Zhu Yuanzhang were tied up and beaten by local petty officials.
From the first year of Wu to the present, more than 40,000 military households have fled in various places, and peasants of all sizes have rioted more than 300 times. Needless to say, the rest is needless to say. In the face of the situation where the corruption of the previous dynasty has penetrated deeply into the bone marrow, and even flourished crazily, if we sit back and watch
If we ignore it, the short-lived defeat of the peasant regime is not far away.
The land of China, which had finally unified the world, was very likely to fall into a new round of competition among heroes. Zhu Yuanzhang had foreseen it, so he would take a cruel step and eradicate this poison at all costs. It was better to be heartbroken than to suffer a short-lived defeat.
Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Biao did not think about trying to persuade his father more in the future, thinking that he would do less massacres and avoid leaving a reputation for cruelty and harshness in history. However, in the face of various problems after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he
I also understand that if the official culture of the Yuan Dynasty was not riddled with loopholes, the fate of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years would probably be another situation where the ancestors died and the land was divided.
