Chapter 81: One government, one imperial commissioner, who kills corrupt officials!
The new regulations on official governance planned by Emperor Chongzhen were the curse that restricted the Ming Dynasty, and were a powerful tool to master the righteousness and kill corrupt officials in the future.
Therefore, Han Jisi, the left censor of the Censorate, sent a series of memorials to the imperial court through the Tongzheng Department and then transferred them to the cabinet, causing a storm in the court.
Many court officials and ministers in the court, including some officials from the Six Sections, opposed the matter and submitted memorials to criticize the new regulations on administration.
According to the statistics of the Silijian, only mentioning violations of the ancestral etiquette and law, there are as many as 179 places. The official culture of the Ming Dynasty was considered to be the result of these civil servants' understanding.
‘If we don’t use the corruption case in Jingtong this time, the new regulations on officials will be implemented in the court, which will be even more difficult in the future!’
Looking at the departing ministers, Emperor Chongzhen's deep eyes flashed with bright light,'In the third year of Chongzhen, there were many problems to be encountered, the ambitious Jianlu Eight Banners, and the bandit forces that were constantly changing,
Disasters occur frequently everywhere.
Just these, if the Ming Dynasty had no restraint, the officialdom would only continue to be in chaos, and the entire Ming Dynasty would continue to be in chaos.’
Emperor Chongzhen was very clear about the current situation in the Ming Dynasty. If he did not put a tight hook on the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, many problems would not be substantially solved.
He can't carry the pressure alone.
The cabinet is good too.
Just like the Military Affairs Office.
Even the Censorate.
Emperor Chongzhen would not hold on to the authority that should be given, but if he gets these authority, he will have to bear the pressure and share the worries for you.
The civil servants put pressure on him.
He put pressure on Han and the others.
This time, Han and the others came to Qianqing Palace together, and wanted to carry out rules and regulations, just to stand up and stand. After all, they are all members of the civil servant group.
Even if they want to do things, they don’t live in a vacuum after all, but have various relationships. If they don’t come to advise, their reputation will be terrible.
It’s a pity that Emperor Chongzhen was more skilled, not only blocking Han and the others’ mouths, but also oppressing Han and the others with the general trend, acknowledging the new regulations on administration that they wanted to implement.
If you don’t admit it, it will be possible, then let the Jinyiwei be responsible.
The complex political struggles of the Ming Dynasty, the civil servants, the honorary and relatives, the factory guards, the eunuchs in the inner court, etc., gave Emperor Chongzhen too many choices to take advantage of the situation.
"Li Qing, you have seen the situation in the court in the past two days after you returned to the capital?"
Emperor Chongzhen looked serious and looked at Li Banghua who was summoned to the palace again, and said, "Some corrupt officials in the court ignored the laws and regulations of the Ming Dynasty and the country of the Ming Dynasty, and reached their hands to the second warehouse of Jingtong.
I won’t say much about the various public opinions of the foreign dynasty. I believe that Li Qing has learned a lot in the past two days and has been visited by many people, right?”
Li Banghua's expression was a little complicated. He didn't understand how many things could have been exposed during the days he left the capital.
Whether it was the case of collusion between Xuanfu Town and Taiyuan Prefecture, or the case of corruption in Jingtong Second Cang, Li Banghua felt a chill in his heart.
Could it be that the administration of the Ming Dynasty was so severe?
"Taiyuan Prefecture, no, to be precise, it is the entire Shanxi officialdom. I have thought about it for the past two days." Emperor Chongzhen stood up and walked slowly towards Li Banghua.
"This matter must be dealt with seriously and even more severely, but considering the raging bandit problem, how to arrest and punish is a science."
"Your Majesty said very much."
Li Banghua bowed slightly and said, "I, Liu Hongxun and others, have some concerns in this discussion after finding out about this matter in Taiyuan Prefecture.
After all, if the bandits rampant under Shaanxi and even some bandits under Shanxi are dealt with improperly, it will inevitably cause shock to the entire Shanxi.
Once the raging bandit forces marched into Shanxi, the stability of the capital area would be completely out of control."
"I have thought of a way to deal with this situation."
Emperor Chongzhen reached out and said, "The case of collusion with the enemy must continue to be arrested. The corrupt officials who were found, including those who would be severely punished in the future, can all move closer to this case.
You, the imperial envoy, have to continue doing it.
At the same time, in order to resolve this matter, I decided to draw a group of counselors and ministers from the Military Affairs Office to form a former commander of the foreigners in the case of supervising the enemy.
In addition... the four guards were all transferred and incorporated into this former command. At the same time, the loyal and brave army also transferred some elite troops.
At the Censorate, I have selected a group of young officials and served as imperial envoys from various prefectures. I have sent them to Shanxi to rule and be fully responsible for the purging of the officialdom."
The emperor is going to take ruthless measures to rectify the officialdom in Shanxi.
One mansion and one imperial envoy.
He even sent elite troops such as the Four Guards and the Loyal and Brave Army.
This is obviously a big kill!
At this moment, waves of surprise emerged deep in Li Banghua's heart, but after careful consideration, this was exactly the best solution.
"Li Qing is responsible for this foreign delegation from the Military Affairs Office, and is in charge of the rectification of Pingyang Prefecture, Lu'an Prefecture, Zezhou and other departments."
Emperor Chongzhen continued: "Liu Qing was in charge of the purgatory affairs of Taiyuan Prefecture, Datong Prefecture, Fenzhou, Liaozhou and other places. As for the Jin vassal states in Taiyuan, he was supervised by the East Factory led by Cao Huachun.
The imperial envoys from all over the country are responsible for investigating cases, and the strong troops from all over the country are responsible for arresting people and raiding houses. They have no unity between each other and go directly to the front-end foreign delegations to rule.
I have entrusted the stability under Shanxi to Li Qing. I hope Li Qing will not let down my high hopes, so that things will cause chaos in Shanxi."
When Li Banghua heard this, he felt that the pressure increased. The emperor granted all his authority to him. This was indeed a kind of trust and reliance, but the difficulty and difficulties of this matter were far beyond everyone's imagination.
Especially under the rule of Shaanxi, which is adjacent to Shanxi, the raging bandit forces are rampant. If some people under Shanxi are forced to get angry and secretly circulate bandit forces, causing Shanxi to become in chaos, then he will be very guilty.
"Li Qing, don't feel too stressed, solve the problem if there is a problem."
Emperor Chongzhen walked forward, patted Li Banghua on the shoulder, and said, "One person's thoughts may have limitations, so how about more people thinking together?
Especially the generals I sent out all destroyed the eight major thieves first. Li Qing left Beijing and went to Shanxi this time, but he would discuss with them first. After forming a total operation, it would not be too late to take action.
In addition, don’t involve the border town. Even if there is one, you have to wait until the bandit forces under the rule of Shanxi and Shaanxi will be quelled by the State Council.”
"I understand."
