Chapter 212 Governance (7)
"In the past few months, there have been many things happening in the dynasty, and the cabinet has indeed shared a lot of worries for me." Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon throne, looked at the memorials piled up in front of him, and said to the cabinet members.
"For example, the powers under Bi Qing, some adjustments to the tax and service system, and the operation of Zhangjiakou Pass, have provided a lot of relief to the treasury input.
However, in some things, what you did not do well enough. Don’t be impeached by some censors and censors. The so-called impeachment of the prosecutors will slow down the laxity of powers under your jurisdiction.”
After hearing what the emperor said, Han Yu, Wen Tiren, Bi Ziyan and other cabinet ministers showed different expressions, and the changes between the court and the people nowadays caused the situation in the court to undergo corresponding changes again.
Especially the Censorate, he began to seconded the corresponding officials from the Six Certificates, allowing all the six Certificates to be given to the officials, including other officials, to be extremely dissatisfied, and even frequently submitted impeachments and memorials for advice.
However, these submitted memorials seemed to disappear without causing any storm.
"I still said the same thing. The cabinet is helping me share my worries and supporting me."
Emperor Chongzhen patted his memorial in front of him and said indifferently: "You are not the cabinet of the censors and censors, nor the cabinet of other court officials, but my cabinet!
If you don’t even have the courage to take responsibility, you will submit a memorial to me as soon as possible. This time, I will not try to keep the slightest.
Han Qing, you have recently become impeached by the censor and the censor. Even I have never doubted you. Have you started to doubt yourself?"
"I am guilty."
Han Yu was shocked and hurriedly bowed and said.
"I don't want to hear these words."
Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said, "Put down the rebellion, disaster relief, and various expenses, come and tell me what you need for such a huge amount of food and salary.
Can it be solved by saying these words?
If I can, then I will go to the ancestral temple every day, and in front of the ancestors and ancestors, and say that I have no ability and can only pray with this?"
Han Du was sweating coldly.
When the emperor spoke these words in public, he knew what was going on. On the one hand, it was for the affairs of the Zonghe Office, and on the other hand, it was for the public opinion in the court.
"Your Majesty, I have been thinking over the past few days that there are many officials in the court. Can the Ministry of Personnel be allowed to screen a batch from the local area?"
Wen Tiren walked forward at this time, bowed and said, "In this way, the memorials submitted by Nan Juyi of the Ministry of Works can be relieved accordingly when the court actually recommended it.
Especially in the Ministry of Works, more people have been removed from office recently…”
After hearing what Wen Tiren said, Emperor Chongzhen smiled on his face. Wen Tiren was a good player in the aftermath and wanted to use this to divert the contradictions.
However, it is indeed possible to add a shortage of officials in the court.
When a group of local officials can come to the capital, the court will become more important, which has many benefits for checks and balances.
Moreover, at this time, Han Jisi, the left censor of the Censorate, had already led a team to leave Beijing and carry out corresponding inspections. All prefectures and counties under the rule of Northern Zhili were promising for personal gain, corruption, and incompetence.
All the officials who are lazy in power must be cut off and removed.
The bigger the gap in official positions, the more he can take the opportunity to open a special first phase of the encyclopedia. If he can select a group of good talents from it and add them to the Hanlin Academy, he can try to win over a group of emperor disciples.
At this stage, the Ming Dynasty did not have the direct connection between the removal of the imperial examination and entering the official career. Even if it was to change, it would have to wait for internal and external conflicts to be initially alleviated, including the basic structure he mastered, which could be clarified to a certain extent.
While Emperor Chongzhen was thinking about these things, the hall fell into silence, especially Wen Tiren, who had finished speaking, couldn't help feeling uneasy.
"For this matter, the cabinet drafted a public letter to the Ministry of Personnel."
After pondering for a while, Emperor Chongzhen frowned and said, "Call Wang Yongguang, Minister of Personnel, and come to the palace to meet him. I will issue an order for the specific way to do it."
"I will obey the order."
Everyone responded immediately.
Compared with the second year of Chongzhen, Emperor Chongzhen had greatly enhanced his control over the entire court. Although it was far from what he thought, he could not be anxious about this matter.
How long has it been passed for three years to stabilize?
Everything has to be done step by step.
"Although the situation has eased recently, I don't want you to be lazy in your heart."
Emperor Chongzhen stood up, glanced at everyone and said, "Don't forget that the Ministry of Revenue still owes ten million war bonds, and these are all to be repaid.
Moreover, the gap in various expenses is still quite large.
I don’t want this to be empty talk. If the previous financial crisis is formed again, don’t think about getting one tael of silver from my treasury.
Now my treasury is poorer than the national treasury!
I feel that the tax adjustments planned by Bi Qing before should be gradually implemented. Don’t encounter any problems, just tear down the east wall and repair the west wall."
As he said that, regardless of what everyone thought, Emperor Chongzhen shook his sleeves and walked out of the hall.
"Greatly send your Majesty!"
Ignoring the sound behind him, Emperor Chongzhen's thoughts floated to the placement and abolishing soldiers from the Beijing camp. Although these guys were not qualified, if they could not make proper arrangements, there would inevitably be chaos in the capital area.
"Parent Wang, are you ready to accept the group of soldiers from the Beijing camp?" Emperor Chongzhen walked forward quickly and said to Wang Chengen who was accompanying him.
"These people must be arranged properly, including their families, and there must be no trouble, otherwise some people in the court should use this to say things."
"Your Majesty, you're ready."
Wang Chengen said as he walked: "If you have a residence in the capital, you will arrange it to the factories you opened nearby, and the corresponding treatment will be the same as the original group of people.
As for those who have no residence, they will be diverted to the imperial villages in Beizhili, and the inner factory will be strictly managed to ensure that these people will not cause any chaos."
"Um."
Emperor Chongzhen nodded and replied: "This is my last gift to them. If you don't even want to take out your strength and just want to eat and wait for death, then you will kill them all!
If someone dares to instigate trouble during this period, he will be deterred by killing.
When I was just taking the court's food and wages for nothing, I couldn't do anything, and such a good life was gone."
"Sister obeys the order."
Wang Chengen immediately bowed.
In recent days, influenced by Emperor Chongzhen, the atmosphere in the entire court has become depressed, and many ministers are even a little uncomfortable with this more efficient situation.
However, in the eyes of Emperor Chongzhen, the group of civil servants in the court, who were so immersed in their minds, were simply because they did too little things, otherwise they would not have been so troubled. Since this is the case, then
If you can't do anything, get out as soon as possible.
