Chapter 246 Discipline Inspection Yamen(1/2)
Zhu Youxiao was very satisfied. He didn't have long established the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the Centre for the C
Zhu Youxiao said happily: "You guys did a good job."
"I am grateful to Your Majesty." Bi Maokang said quickly.
The subsequent things will be much easier. If you have something, you will also say touching words. Then you will naturally give benefits and rewards. Zhu Youxiao left this matter to Xu Guangqi.
At noon, I had a working meal with Bi Maokang and the others here, and Zhu Youxiao went back to Xiyuan.
After returning to Xiyuan, Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood. He did not read it wrongly. They did not disappoint him. This was a very good start.
Back to his favorite pavilion, sat on the rocking chair and took a sip of tea. Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood.
"Emperor, Lord Zhao Bingzhong and Lord Zhao asked for a visit." Chen Hong came to Zhu Youxiao and said respectfully.
When Zhu Youxiao heard Chen Hong mention Zhao Bingzhong, he was a little stunned.
Speaking of which, I really forgot about Zhao Bingzhong during this period.
However, when he heard Chen Hong mention it, Zhu Youxiao remembered that he asked Zhao Bingzhong to go to the Tongzhengsi to report secretly.
Now that he is here to ask for a meeting, he probably has a plan.
Zhu Youxiao nodded and said, "Then let him come in."
In fact, Zhu Youxiao was in a good mood at this time, which was also the reason why he was willing to see Zhao Bingzhong.
If nothing unexpected happens, Zhao Bingzhong should have come to make things difficult for him, and he doesn't think Zhao Bingzhong would be so obedient to him.
This is a capable person and also an idea person.
"Yes, the emperor." Chen Hong quickly agreed, turned around and walked out.
Not long after, Chen Hong took Zhao Bingzhong into the outside and retreated aside.
When he came to Zhu Youxiao, Zhao Bingzhong bowed and said, "I will meet your Majesty."
"Okay, please don't give me a gift." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.
After Zhao Bingzhong stood up, Zhu Youxiao asked, "Your dear come here today, but have any ideas?"
"When you go back to your Majesty, I do have an idea," said Zhao Bingzhong.
"Then let's talk about it." Zhu Youxiao replied with a smile.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Bingzhong agreed and then said, "This is the title book written by me. Please read it by Your Majesty."
As he said that, Zhao Bingzhong respectfully picked up a question book.
Zhu Youxiao nodded.
Chen Hong walked over and took the question book with both hands, walked back respectfully, and presented the question book to his emperor.
After taking the question book, Zhu Youxiao opened it and read it quickly.
After more than half a year of experience, Zhu Youxiao can see most of the question books clearly and understand them. However, he still can't understand some of the allusions that are more profound.
Fortunately, Zhao Bingzhong is not that kind of person, and the question book is very clear:
"Later generations who speak smartly were the first to recommend Han Xuan. The officials said that the people were safe and sound, which could be effective! If you focus on prosecutors, then what the prosecutors are not accessible will be omitted, so you have falsely increased the rewards."
The first sentence of the beginning describes that he praised Emperor Xuan of Han of the Han Dynasty, believing that Emperor Xuan of Han could achieve such a level of fame because Emperor Xuan of Han could make officials safe and the people could follow the example of Emperor Xuan of Han; at the same time, he emphasized that the reason why Emperor Xuan of Han could do it was because of supervision.
Later, we talk about some shortcomings of the current supervision system, and then we will make a summary at the end:
"The spirit is rushing and intimidated by power, and the people are bound to the sky and obey it. Whenever the house is not written, the rules and paintings are suspended and not set up, but the top is spiritual and the bottom is realistic, and the top is warned. There is no name for comprehensive information, but the people are in good faith. Those Han Xuan is not as good as Chinese writing, which is exactly what they say."
After analyzing the pros and cons, Zhao Bingzhong's words turned around.
"Hong Wei, Emperor Taizu, was born with wisdom and perseverance. At the beginning of the ignorance, he created plans and established plans for all generations. After the final determination, he established the principles and records, and gave birth to the grand rules of the ages."
When Zhu Youxiao saw this, he laughed. It can be said that Zhao Bingzhong praised Emperor Taizu without hesitation.
Zhu Youxiao had known this for his praise of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, but he didn't expect to write it here. It seems that he is really a fan of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, and he is also a hard-core fan.
Putting down the question book in his hand, Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Tell me what you want to do, right?"
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Bingzhong bowed and said, "The secret memorial system has made up for many shortcomings in supervision in previous dynasties; although there will be suspicion of officials' mutual suspicion, I think this is to waste the roots and conquer the end."
"Officials act openly and have no personal selfishness in everything, so they will naturally not be afraid. The law of our dynasty will naturally severely punish those false accusations."
"It is only in the court that we must distinguish right from wrong, investigate clearly, and have detailed evidence, and must not be convicted randomly. Therefore, the minister believes that the court still lacks a yamen, which is responsible for investigating secret reports."
"If a local official impeaches an official and informs the court of secretly, the court will definitely send someone to investigate it in detail. If the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Justice is still used to investigate, or the imperial envoy is sent to investigate, the news will easily leak."
"What's more, the officials of the court are mixed and colluded with each other, so it is easy to have favoritism and cover up. Therefore, I think that the court should have a yamen that can be investigated anytime and anywhere, and can investigate quietly in secret and contact those officials who reported secretly."
"In this way, the situation can be verified, and secondly, the information can be ensured not leaked."
Zhu Youxiao nodded. This yamen is similar to the Discipline Inspection Commission. As long as someone secretly reports impeachment, the Discipline Inspection Commission will send someone to investigate, and it will be a secret investigation.
It is indeed necessary to have such a yamen.
After thinking about it, Zhu Youxiao said, "Can Dongtang Jinyiwei be useful?"
When Zhao Bingzhong heard Zhu Youxiao's words, his face suddenly became serious.
If the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei were asked to interfere in the secret report, the matter would definitely become very bad. This was not the original intention of setting up this yamen.
So Zhao Bingzhong said with a serious face: "I think it's not possible."
If the Dongchang and the Jinyiwei were used to investigate, I thought it would be better to send the imperial envoy from the court. The Jinyiwei army was vulgar and unworthy; the eunuchs from the Dongchang were greedy for money and were not brave, and they were not good ministers."
Zhao Bingzhong said this very impolitely, and his meaning was obvious, that is, the Jinyiwei and the Dongchang were all the minions of His Majesty, and these people had no fair intentions. On the one hand, they were greedy for power and wealth, while on the other hand, they were small-minded and could not accomplish great things at all.
In a word, Zhao Bingzhong looked down on Dongchang and Jinyiwei at all.
Zhao Bingzhong's words made Chen Hong a little embarrassed. After all, Zhao Bingzhong was not only talking about Dongchang, but also put all the eunuchs in it.
How could it be not embarrassing if you hear this?
Zhu Youxiao was not angry, but was expected. Zhao Bingzhong was such a person. If he didn't tell the truth so bluntly, he wouldn't dare to use him.
So Zhu Youxiao asked, "How should you act according to your beloved?"
"I think that if a local minister secretly reports corruption, the yamen will send someone to investigate. After the verification is made, he will return to Beijing to participate in the report, and arrest the criminals in Beijing for interrogation."
"Who will interrogate?" Zhu Youxiao looked at Zhao Bingzhong and asked.
"I think it should be handed over to Dali Temple." Zhao Bingzhong said expressionlessly.
This is not because he flattered Zhu Youxiao, or if he had any other thoughts, but because he really thought so in his heart.
Zhao Bingzhong continued: "The Tongzheng Department is responsible for investigation, Dali Temple is responsible for interrogation; as for the Ministry of Justice and the Censorate, it is responsible for supervising and interpreting the laws of the Ming Dynasty."
"I think this will allow people to check and balance the situation on multiple sides to reduce unjust, false and wrong cases. After all, supervision is to make the Qing people clearer and severely punish corrupt officials."
Zhu Youxiao glanced at Zhao Bingzhong and sighed in his heart.
Who said that there were no talents in the Ming Dynasty? This is a talent!
How advanced is this idea?
How appropriate is this approach?
"As soon as this method is released, my dear will be the target of public criticism." Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.
First of all, this will panic the officials. No one knows when they will be sued. Moreover, you are investigating secretly. Or in an independent yamen, you can't even reach out.
In this way, why are officials not afraid? How can they not panic?
After being afraid of panic, they naturally want to remove this system, and attacking the leaders is the most appropriate approach.
Killing Zhao Bingzhong will solve a big problem.
If you can't solve the problem, just solve the person who asked the problem. This is common in all eras.
In addition, Zhao Bingzhong's actions are also robbing many people of their rights. First of all, the Ministry of Justice of the Dali Temple and the Censorate will definitely not like Zhao Bingzhong's behavior. Isn't this naked taking power into his own hands?
Moreover, the power he stopped was the power of the Dali Temple Censorate and the Ministry of Justice, which would also make him the target of public criticism.
Even after this policy was passed, the Tongzhengsi became a place where other yamen could not interfere, and even the cabinet could not interfere.
After all, secret memorials are not sent to the cabinet, but directly to the imperial court, so Tongzhengshi and others also seized the power of the cabinet in disguise.
From this perspective, Zhao Bingzhong will naturally become the first to emerge. In this case, his life will probably be difficult.
People in the officialdom dislike Zhao Bingzhong, so they will stay away from him and impeach him.
In addition, Zhao Bingzhong's reputation will plummet. He will be wearing such hats on his head, and will not be taken off for a while, and may even be written into history and arranged by countless people.
After hearing Zhu Youxiao's words, Zhao Bingzhong's expression did not change at all.
In fact, before Zhao Bingzhong did this, he had already thought of these things and was prepared in his heart. If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have come to make this opinion at all.
Moreover, Zhao Bingzhong also knew that after doing this, he was also competing for power with Dongchang and Jinyiwei.
These two yamen are not easy to mess with, especially the eunuchs in the East Factory. They may impeach themselves in front of His Majesty.
The reason why Zhao Bingzhong did this was, on the one hand, because he was willing to do this, for the Ming Dynasty, for the world, and for the sake of showing his ambitions.
Even if he can't end up with a good end, Zhao Bingzhong is willing to do it. Those who are officials will do something and do not do anything, and he is willing to do it.
Another very important reason is that Zhao Bingzhong believes in His Majesty. He believes that His Majesty is a wise king. He knows the benefits of doing so and will also help and protect himself, so he is willing to give it a try.
