Although the Ming Dynasty had long had a precedent of sending officials to inspect local areas, this was the first time that each censor was directly asked to spend half of his time going to the province where he was located to supervise and inspect and understand the people's conditions.
Because this is not Zhu Di’s impromptu idea, but will become Ming Dynasty’s customization!
In other words, as long as no one overthrows the ancestral system, it will continue.
Just when everyone was lamenting that it was not easy to supervise the censor, Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Household Affairs, also took the initiative to submit a letter.
He also made it very clear that the current accounting of fiscal revenue and expenditure by the Ministry of Household Affairs and the taxation of various localities are basically summarized and organized based on the situation reported by each locality, and there are inevitably some omissions. There are many local malpractices that have been going on for a long time, and there are many things. The court didn't know for a while.
Therefore, he proposed that Yuanwailang, a member of the Thirteenth Qing Dynasty Officials Department, should be responsible for inspecting local areas in batches. If he could discover bad governance and correct it, such meritorious officials should be vigorously rewarded and promoted first.
Zhu Di was naturally very happy to see this.
"Okay, there's no need to check. Xia Shangshu took the initiative to ask for it. It's really what I want. Very good! This time the Ministry of Revenue came to the front. If courtiers can do this, I don't have to worry about it."
Zhu Di was in a good mood and praised Xia Yuanji.
Lao Xia was also full of joy. This time he saw the overall situation clearly and acted quickly, so he came out on top.
Xu Pingzhang thought a lot and nodded immediately.
"Not necessarily? Does it mean that Xu Jingchang can't do anything?" Xu Pingzhang was frightened. After all, Chen Ying has enough qualifications and Zhu Di doesn't approve it. No matter how you look at it, it's a sure thing and no one can stop it.
This is a man who deals with the law.
Gui Maoqun was stunned for a moment and said casually: "Ding Guo Gong can also participate?"
Xu Pingzhang nodded again, I have no candidates for my appointment... It is obvious that the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment will cooperate with the reform of Confucianism and the adjustment of official learning.
Gui Maoqun suddenly smiled, "That's not necessarily the case. In fact, there is no other way...not to let Chen Ying take the initiative to enter and leave."
In a word, you Gui Maoqun gave him face, let’s see what he does!
Xu Pingzhang was surprised, "How could I take the initiative to come in and out? I have to be the right Xia Yuanji."
Xu Pingzhang then ran to the Xu Mansion and sat by the pond with the Censor of the City.
Xia Yuanji was stunned, why did he ask about Jian Yi?
Xu Pingzhang pondered for a long time and sighed: "Xu Jingchang, does he mean to rely on that to win Guimao?"
"Bad sex, that should be considered a trivial matter, right?"
Gui Maoqun said: "You are also quite puzzled. After all, you are busy with official duties all day long and you don't even have time for fishing. I am obviously busier than you. Who knows where do I get the time?"
When Du Yushi didn't answer, Gui Maoqun took a deep breath. It was the right time. It seemed that the Ministry of Rites could interfere.
Du Yushi smiled. It was possible that he wanted to give him a face. I put the fishing rod on and said casually: "The Ministry of Rites seems to be nervous, but in fact the burden is the heaviest. Because the next Minister of Rites has to cooperate with Xie Xueshi , reinterpret Xiaotong, confirm the official school, and the bad people are involved in the matter."
Xu Pingzhang came out of the Qianqing Palace, feeling relaxed and excited... Finally the emperor asked him about the employment matters. His minister of household affairs could no longer interfere with minor personnel matters.
It is necessary for you to get involved. Even if you recommend a candidate, it will still be used for your own benefit.
Xu Pingzhang pondered for a moment and then sighed: "Xu Jingchang is indeed astute, you are worthy of being as good as you... Since you have a way to defeat Chen Ying, you can only let me be the right Xia Yuanji?"
"I'm afraid that my cruel personality is only suitable for serving as a deputy. If I am put in charge of the Inspectorate, there will be a river of blood."
Lao Xia was startled, then a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes, he just pretended to be stupid!
"This...Xu Jingchang, you want to ask him, in those days when Youxia Yuanji was deposed and Guo Zi was deposed, the new Youxia Yuanji, Wu Zhongshao, made no mistakes, plus Song Li, the Minister of Rites, Liu Jun, the Minister of War, Zheng Ci, the Minister of Punishment... …Those people, more or less, are not suitable for their job, or they have been dismissed, or their status is unstable. What should he do when the next people in the imperial court are employed?"
"You don't have any secret files about Chen Ying."
For a moment, Gui Maoqun was stunned...
Zhu Di did not look into it carefully, but said: "In that case, he must be allowed to share the government affairs. After all, Jian Tianguan hasn't done a very bad job yet."
Without that item, he could be on an equal footing with Jian Yi, or even replace him... After all, the emperor asked Jian Yi to intervene in finance and taxation!
Zhu Di suddenly said: "Xia Qing's family, how do you think Jian Tianguan did?"
"Yes!" Xu Pingzhang said decisively: "You dare, Chen Ying is an adult, you can offend me so much, one bite will penetrate eight points to the bone. But Xu Jingchang took action, and it was natural."
I raised my voice and said: "Xu Jingchang, there is something you want to hide from him. Your Majesty has inquired and wants to arrange suitable candidates. You are thinking that in such a small court, there are few ministers who can shoulder important responsibilities. You also I hope to recommend a few good ministers to share the government affairs. He has just taken up the post of deputy envoy to Pingzhang, and he needs no one to help Pingzhangyuan get things done wrong. In short, the little guy must be of one mind and work together, right?"
Gui Maoqun rolled his eyelids, no matter who touches Chen Ying, I can do it.
The Heavenly Official of the Ministry of Civil Affairs was also called Xiaozuka Prime Minister, so it was wrong to call Jian Yi a virtuous minister and good prime minister, but that title was placed in the Yongle Dynasty, and it didn't mean much...
"Gui Maoqun hit the nail on the head and hit the point. But looking at the current situation, Your Majesty will definitely promote Gui Mao. I am a hero of Jingnan. I have surrendered to Your Majesty early and have won your trust. You and Jian Tianguan are both inferior." For me, to this day, it is inevitable that I will be promoted to Xia Yuanji from a low position to a small family."
"What about the Criminal Department? Your Majesty wants to replace someone?"
Xu Pingzhang took a look around subconsciously. There were too many Taihu stones and camellias beside the pond of the imperial censor. Look next to the stones and on the flower trees, there were not many black goslings, beautiful peacocks, or even Elegant crane... Xu Pingzhang nodded secretly, he is so good at playing, he must have put in a lot of effort... But you and Jian Yi are the ones who are really conscientious and work hard for the country.
Xu Pingzhang thought for a while, "Now the only one left is the Inspectorate... Actually, to be honest, you really want to replace Wuzhong."
My name is Chen Ying, and Xu Pingzhang can tell me half a word.
"Master, where is he going?"
Did you hear that correctly?
Gui Maoqun grabbed Zizhu's fishing rod, raised his head, and said with a smile: "You are just the deputy envoy of Pingzhang. If you are in charge of the affairs of the four ministers, he will definitely ask you."
Xu Pingzhang was stunned, "Could it be that I have nothing to back up?"
Xu Pingzhang took a deep breath and said, "Xu Jingchang, he is truly a genius!"
Du Yushi pondered for a moment, then suddenly said: "Actually, that's not necessarily the case."
Although Du Yushi was also annoying, at least I made the officials fly into disbelief... Du Yushi was very restrained when it came to killing people.
Gui Maoqun became more and more depressed as he thought about it, and drank seven taels less wine in the evening... But as soon as his old wife brought down the wine, Xu Pingzhang got up while still drinking.
He subconsciously said: "Jian Tianguan is not very diligent, so his prestige among the courtiers is quite low. Being praised as the true Tianguan, he is really a virtuous minister and good minister!"
"Yes, although Wuzhong is old-fashioned, it is overall outstanding. What's the harm? If I were brought up, Chen Ying would definitely step down. That would be a bad joke."
An expected smile appeared on Zhu Di's face, "What I mean is that the adjustment of the Eight Ministries and Four Ministers was very small at that time, and it was necessary to arrange a few suitable candidates to take over the positions. This matter is only for me to weigh, and it is also a matter of Jian Tianguan.
One person can do it. There are so many things that a small family has to worry about."
The official department is half his own, and the household department is still his own household department... Qin Shihuang looked in the mirror, it was a win-win situation!
Gui Maoqun said with a smile: "That's still complicated. Just tell me that there is no evidence of my crime, and I must be the one responsible for Yuanji Yuanji, so I can expose him."
Xu Pingzhang was dumbfounded, "Chen Ying gets up early and goes to bed late. She is outside the Yamen all day long. Her diligence is well known to everyone. How come I don't have time to play around with women, and I still play so much? Xu Jingchang, is he mistaken?
?”
"Actually, he needs to speak directly. He just told Chen Ying that he got some information. My current status is still unclear. When I become You Gui Maoqun, in charge of the country's constitution, no one will definitely check my style.
, for my bad sake, please ask me to go out to the capital temporarily with the supervisory censor, inspect the place, make contributions to the country, and resolve the rumors. Just wait until the day of success, and then return to the capital to serve as the right capital censor, and someone will be able to stop him.
.”
After all, we are all imperialists. If I go to cut off the emperor's wings, what will happen? Zhu Di has a narrow-minded mind, and there must be a thorn missing.
It is precisely because of sticking to the bottom line that I, Xu Pingzhang, am willing to come over and chat with the Imperial Censor to discuss candidates.
After all, as officials in the same dynasty, there are a few things that you should pay attention to.
Xu Pingzhang was startled, "He is also afraid of Chen Ying?"
Your Majesty asked you to share in the government affairs of Jian Yi?
"Yes!" Du Yushi shook his head decisively, "Lao Xia, he knows that His Majesty still trusts Gui Mao. Since he trusts him, he will take me for that matter."
That time Xu Pingzhang was stunned, "Does he want to?"
Xu Pingzhang didn't reply at all, only saying: "I'm waiting at home."
"You think so too," Du Yushi said simply.
"But the problem is that there are no men from Japan or Ryukyu in my family, and there are not a few blond, blue-eyed and long-legged ones sent by the barbarian merchants." Du Yushi said: "I go to a nunnery at home privately.
There are tricks hidden outside."
Du Yushi said: "It's a small matter to talk about, but I don't have any bad intentions."
Du Yushi added: "It is true that the Ministry of Punishment needs to be changed, but Your Majesty obviously wants to re-amend the law. Again, Xiao Ming's orthodoxy has been changed, the official school has been changed, and the foundation of the law has also been changed... The next Ministry of Punishment must cooperate with that
, including Xiaoli Temple, they must all be experts in punishment and professional talents."
That was the bad thing he had been asking for. In an instant, Xu Pingzhang's expression changed, "Your Majesty, minister, I mean that Jian Tianguan has an overview of the overall situation, assists the king and father, fulfills his duties, and has no faults... But people are perfect, and their strength
There is no end to it. One person is short of wisdom and the other is wise. I am willing to work harder and help Jian Tianguan share some trivial and laborious things, which are convenient things to handle... In short, I am willing to relieve my father's worries and do my best for the court.
"
I recommend a book by an old author, "Lady, Please Help Me Live Forever". You can tell by looking at the title that it is worth looking forward to!
