Chapter 441
Beijing inspection is a big obstacle for thousands of officials in Beijing, 4th rank and below, which can make most people tremble and feel uneasy since the autumn of the previous year. Even officials who think they have no mistakes and missed them on weekdays, they cannot guarantee that they will not have any mistakes or make any mistakes that they have made without knowing but have suffered a lot.
Therefore, in the eyes of these officials, the colleagues of the Ministry of Personnel who specifically evaluated their gains and losses for three years were really extremely powerful and had a life-and-death existence. But what they didn't know was that in fact, many officials in the Ministry of Personnel Examination Department, who were responsible for related matters, were also complaining about the Beijing Inspection Office, for fear of something going wrong during this period.
When other middle and lower-level officials in the Beijing became more and more nervous after the New Year, these officials of the Ministry of Personnel were already busy. The relevant documents they need to read and understand every day will be several times the previous ones, just to know more accurately about the many situations of the officials in the Beijing area and make corresponding comments.
This is an extremely meticulous task, and there must be no sloppy or negligence. The merits and demerits of any official will affect his future and future. If a wrong judgment leads to someone being demoted or something, the consequences will be too serious...
Therefore, starting from February, the Ministry of Personnel will call most officials to handle major affairs in Beijing. Every official must not stop from morning to night. He must keep his head in the desk, read the contents of various documents carefully, and then learn from one example and make a pertinent evaluation of a certain official, and finally write some of his own opinions and submit them.
Such meticulous desk work is more difficult than the imperial examination papers, but the time is not much different from it. In this way, the workload will be many times greater. If someone really asked the officials of the examination department how to view the Beijing Prefecture, they would definitely say that they would rather not have this responsibility.
Qin Junqing is a chief officer in the Ministry of Personnel Examination. During these days, he was busy with the Beijing inspection and could not sleep for three hours a day. His whole spirit was much worse than before. This made him only boost his spirit by constantly drinking tea so that he would not make wrong judgments due to dizziness.
But at this moment, when he saw the file in front of him, he still wondered if there was something wrong with his head or his eyes were blurred. The scores given by the three colleagues to the owner of the file were all up and down. This is the highest-rated official in the past few days.
After Qin Junqing carefully read the detailed merits and demerits of the officials inside, he was even more shocked. The head of the Ministry of Revenue, named Li Ling, made a lot of contributions. The mistakes, except for taking too many leave and having disputes with his boss, were almost completely defilement. Moreover, this boss was a criminal who had just been convicted of the official learning Taoism, which proved that even this mistake was not a mistake.
"No, isn't this Li Ling the Li Ling?" After a while, Qin Junqing realized that Li Ling is now a famous person in the capital, especially in the officialdom. Regardless of his contribution to the court, he just took down a doctor and a servant as a mere chief. Such a performance of restraining his superiors was enough to make him the most beautiful among thousands of officials in the capital.
Qin Junqing, who understood, was amazed again, and then subconsciously wrote down the evaluation of the above and below on the file. In this way, three evaluations were already accumulated, so he could hand them over and the master of the ministry made the final decision.
For the fairness of the Beijing Prefecture assessment, the same file must be reviewed and evaluated by three officials of the Ministry of Personnel. If there is a major difference, the three can discuss it. If it does not work, it will be reported to the boss and the boss is a doctor or a servant. If there is no big difference, it will not be just passed. Instead, it will be sent to the desk of the master of the department after accumulating a batch, and then he will perform the final review.
Of course, generally speaking, the Minister of Personnel has too many official duties, so it is impossible to really review every file. Then even if he is exhausted, he will not finish his errands, and it will just go through the motions.
This time, when Qin Junqing held a new stack of files to the desk of the department hall, he thought so. So after handing over the files, he did not rush to leave, but waited quietly. After Lord Shangshu checked it casually, he asked him to send the things to Chengfa Room to do the next step of work.
But as a result, today's ministry took a step further after scanning the more than ten files. He took the initiative to extract one of them and carefully looked at the contents inside.
This made Qin Junqing start to be shocked, and then a little speculation came out: "Is it because someone offended the adults and would he be punished this time?"
As the leader of the Beijing Office, the power of the Tianguan of the Ministry of Personnel is quite great. It is also because of this that he can have a considerable position with the big bosses in the Political Affairs Hall. So if someone really offends the Minister of Personnel, once he arrives at the Beijing Office, the fate will be quite terrible. After all, not all the time is fair. If you have power in your hands, you will naturally have to use it.
While Qin Junqing was waiting a little hesitantly, the Shangshu in front finally put down the case file and spoke slowly: "You made the final evaluation of these files, right?"
"Just... it's right." Qin Junqing felt even more uneasy, but she still replied honestly.
"Since that's the case, what's going on with this Li Ling?"
Qin Junqing then realized that the Secretary of State was looking at Li Ling’s file, and his heart was even more shocked. Was he not satisfied with the evaluation he had made? Is it because of Li Ling’s previous actions that he wanted to miss this guy’s evaluation?
But most of the contents written on the file are his credit, and there are not many mistakes. It is really hard to pick the blame in the eggs and force his evaluation down. Qin Junqing was embarrassed for a while and wanted to say something, but because of the accumulated power of the master of the ministry over the years, it was difficult to express his opinions.
But soon, he knew that he was wrong, because Lord Shangshu then slapped the file on the case and said, "I have seen the evaluation you left on this file. Two of them, one of them, and you finally gave him one, but what is it?"
"Ah..." Qin Junqing immediately savored the meaning of his boss's words. However, this would have a greater impact on him. He did not want to push the assessment down, it was clearly an attempt to upgrade to another level. This is too incredible. Is this Li Ling really so much that he can get the best evaluation?
"Ministry, if you want to be promoted again, you will be promoted to the top. That's not many of the thousands of officials in the capital." Qin Junqing added another sentence in his heart. It was obvious that he had only made the highest evaluation in two or three times in ten years. Can Li Ling really bear it?
Although the assessment of Beijing Chamber is divided into nine grades, both upper, middle and lower, in fact, with the modest and humility that Confucianism emphasizes, the best and worst lower grades cannot appear in the records of Beijing Chamber. In this way, the top and middle will naturally become the best evaluation, and then with the assault of Confucianism, few people can gradually get this optimal...
Lord Shangshu glanced at Qin Junqing: "Since Li Ling is diligent in doing things and has made many contributions to the court, the tax on southern Yunnan alone has been increased several times this year. What's wrong with giving him an assessment of the highest level at this time?
"What is the purpose of our Beijing inspection? Isn't it just to reward merits and punish merits so that officials and others can work hard for Your Majesty and the court? Since this is the case, you cannot be stingy with praise. Good is good, and superior is superior. There is no need to reserve it because of worrying about criticism. Otherwise, if this continues, no one will dare to use this assessment soon."
"Yes, what the ministry said is that the subordinates are a little confused. I will change it now!" After understanding that Lord Shangshu did this not only for Li Ling, but also for the sake of the fairness of the Beijing Chamber, Qin Junqing quickly admitted his mistake and made changes on the spot.
It was not until he finished his work that Master Shangshu used his seal to stamp the more than ten documents, indicating that these test results had been confirmed by himself and could be forwarded.
Qin Junqing left the hall after everything related matters was done. At this time, he had a judgment in his mind. It was obvious that the master of the ministry was intended to support Li Ling. He had never heard of what kind of friendship this minister of the Ministry of Revenue had with his department. What was going on?
Qin Junqing naturally could not know this doubt, but as relevant assessments continued to be announced, Li Ling's identity was very different in the eyes of all officials who were happy or worried, especially for many colleagues in the Ministry of Revenue, Li Wenzhong became an extremely unusual existence.
"Super-middle... Wen Zhong, your evaluation is too high. It seems that it will be impossible not to be promoted this time." After learning the final result, Lu You called Li Ling in front of him immediately and sighed with envy, "Thinking about the first time when I first entered the court, the first Beijing inspector had only gotten the evaluation, but even so, it made me happy for more than half a month."
"My lord praised me. The subordinates just did some things that they had to do. It was because of the court's affection that they gave me an overly high evaluation." Li Ling said a little modestly.
"That's not about love, it's about you who are really capable. I have been in the Ministry of Revenue for more than ten years, and no official can do your contribution. By the way, what position do you think you will be promoted to? Now my official positions at all levels of the Ministry of Revenue are full. Could it be that any official at the level of the Yuanwailang will be demoted for this?" Because my exam exam is a middle-class and pretty good, Lu You also has the idea of gossip.
Li Ling shook his head, "I don't know this, maybe I can't stay in the Ministry of Revenue."
