What else to say?

Yu Xin and the four of them glanced at each other and smiled bitterly.

You are so reasonable, where do we have anything to say, just follow what you say, anyway, the rules are set by you, and the money is also out of the treasury, we are only responsible for writing it down, and when the time comes, the newspaper will be copied to the locality, and the treasury will pay the silver in accordance with the regulations in the future.

Zhishi and Ding Wei both involve the expenditure of the treasury, and the places that can be saved must be saved, and the messy rules of etiquette and law, in fact, there is no direct relationship, in the final analysis, it is nothing more than these officials who want to take money and don't want to go to work, so they find excuses to seek personal interests for themselves, and give themselves a layer of moral clothing, so they really treat themselves as people?

In later generations, there was no Ding worry system, and even many officials were busy on the front line when their parents were funeral and did not attend, but were recognized and praised by the society, and the common people never skimped on their love for this kind of official.

Why don't you see those people who spray every day stand up and talk about the ancestral system to criticize these outstanding cadres who are on the front line and do their best for the people?

Really in terms of the ancestral system, Zhou Li has not yet decided on the saying that Ding is worried.

Isn't birth, old age, sickness and death a common thing in the world?

"Zhishi and Ding Wei should write down the expenses of your household department, and in the future, the expenses of the imperial court in these two parts must be detailed, and the expenses that should be spent cannot be saved, and the province should have one more copper plate, and the court will not come out!"

Zhu Yunwen saw that the four of them had written it down, so he waved his hand: "Okay, go down and execute, today's business is finished today, go to the Department of Communications now, according to this standard, send a report in the name of the cabinet and the household department, and send a copy to the locality, all those who are still in the Ding worry period from today must also be notified, and the local government should also carry out self-examination, and all those who are old to the line will be cleared, and I will summon the ministry to discuss the problems of officials." ”

The four of them took their orders together.

"Summoning Mao Tailai."

After the four of them left, Zhu Yunwen called out, and then began to think about the supplement of the officials.

The imperial court has a subject every three years, and this time span is a bit large. Once the new retirement standard is followed, the speed of replenishment of civil servants cannot keep up with the speed of leaving office, so it is necessary to take more exams, but this imperial examination is a major event, and the imperial court can have enough time to find out the level of every jinshi and gongsheng every three years.

The examination problem has always been troublesome, how can we ensure that the selection of materials is enough to be worthy of the local seat?

In addition, from the central to the localities, many officials' personal problems are quite serious, and some officials are busy doing business while their families are busy doing business, and the phenomenon of not separating officials from businessmen and colluding between officials and businessmen is not uncommon, and this must also be controlled.

When Mao Tai came, Zhu Yunwen had just written his thoughts, and when he saw that Mao Tai wanted to give a gift, he was interrupted by Zhu Yunwen, and then the old rules.

Grant the seat, the upper room.

How could Zhu Yunwen have the time to discuss with them, none of the officials in his mind would think about it, and there was no basis for discussion.

"I just asked the household department to decide on the new rules for Zhi Shi and Ding Wei, the so-called involvement of the whole body, Zhi Shi and Ding Wei want to reform, it will inevitably involve the selection and placement of officials, so I summoned you, there are some new policies to be promulgated, you remember."

Only then did Mao Tai know the reason why Zhu Yunwen went to the office, and he was busy picking up the pen immediately.

"Local officials below the seventh rank will automatically leave their posts at the age of fifty-five and fifty, and the replenishment of personnel is a big problem.

At this point, Zhu Yunwen borrowed from the national and provincial examinations in later generations, but the two civil service examinations in later generations were tested once a year, and Zhu Yunwen planned to make slight adjustments to the local examinations here.

"Local provinces can hold an annual examination for students who raise people and show off their talents and fame, and the examination questions are mainly based on the civil affairs and current affairs of each province, and those who have passed the examination will be made up to the provincial government yamen as officials, serve as deputy positions in each county, and lead the imperial court, and they can still participate in the imperial examination every three years, and their work will not delay their studies."

The selection of the chief officials at the three levels of the provincial capital and county is still mainly based on the imperial examination, and every year the Jinshi and Gongsheng of the imperial examination will stay in the Hanlin Academy for a while, and then go through the examination of the Ministry of Officials and the Metropolitan Inspection Yuan, and wait for the lack of chief officials in the local county to be delegated to the post, but there is no need for the central government to worry about this kind of officials, and the local government has the agency responsible for the arrangement and transfer of officials, and the responsibilities are similar to the organization department of later generations.

There are so many scholars in the Ming Dynasty, and it has not yet reached the point of governing the country per capita, this group of cultural people can not pass the imperial examination once and go home to continue to study hard, it is really a waste, let the local organization of current affairs and civil examinations, do not take the eight shares of literature, what you want is to see their actual ability, the threshold and difficulty are lowered, and they directly eat the imperial grain when they pass the test, and they are also just on the front line, close to the grassroots level of the people to accumulate some knowledge of governing the country and the locality.

While on duty, while studying, when the imperial examination is passed in the future and the county order is made, there is no need to spend money to buy another book of "Instructions for Officials to Arrive" as an official guide.

Moreover, after the publication of the newspapers and periodicals, the content of the imperial examination will also be changed, and the changes will be more down-to-earth and closer to the grassroots. These talented people who have begun to accumulate experience on the front line will have a sufficient foundation for governance, and will gradually step into the leadership position of chief officials, and will no longer use the rigid dogmas in the ancient sages' classics to govern the country.

After talking about the issue of supplementing grassroots officials, the next step is the issue of layoffs.

Zhu Yunwen said it unceremoniously.

"From the center to the locality, the officials have many heirs or dozens of people, and some of their sons are not the first to find another way to make a living, the father is a high-ranking official and a feudal official, and the son must be a wealthy businessman in a province.

Those who have children and brothers who are businessmen should be immediately suspended, rectified and declared within a time limit, and the officials of the Dao Dao, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the local Jinyi Wei Qianhu Office will be jointly inspected, but any illegal acts shall be punished according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

All officials who are good at squandering the Spring and Autumn Period, composing poems and paintings for sale, shall be immediately suspended, admonished and talked, and the officials of the Department of Science and Taoism and the Metropolitan Procuratorate shall jointly inspect and inspect them, and if there is a disguised bribe from the sale of calligraphy and paintings, they shall be punished according to the law of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Regarding the relevant rules for suspension, there will be special regulations in later generations, which are all engraved in Zhu Yunwen's head, but he didn't take them all out at once to polish and modify them, he only plans to take out a little bit today, and if he really makes a lot of it, he will be messy himself, and the place will be even more messy.

These two points, one is the family business, this is a common disease, one person is the main official, and the form of the heirs and brothers doing business has shown signs in the Hongwu year.

And now that the ban on business is opened, the business registration is resumed, and the business behavior will only become more and more prosperous, how many people will be in business in those clan-style families with more than 100 people?

Zhu Yunwen's attitude towards this kind of thing is very resolute, you can eat enough after adding Yulu, if you still want to do business, then you have to accept the inspection, and it is just a clean official, if there is a violation of the law, then wait to lose your head.

For the officials of the Ming Dynasty, the punishment is very heavy.

As for the inspection of the Kedao Yanguan and the Metropolitan Procuratorate after they went down to the locality, the local Jinyi Wei Qianhu Office will also send people to participate, and the tripartite joint investigation, Zhu Yunwen does not believe that they are all chaotic ministers and thieves, and there is not even a loyal one who is loyal to him, the emperor.

Of course, it is not excluded that there are fish that have slipped through the net, but there is no way, no one has the ability to completely eliminate corruption, and future generations will not be able to complete the investigation, there is no need to pick a bone in the egg for this kind of thing.

As long as we ensure that the clearance rate is more than 80 percent and that the chief officials of the provincial government are honest, it is sufficient, and in particular, the chief officials of the provincial government can ensure that these two levels of honesty can be guaranteed, and there will be no major man-made disasters and corruption in the localities.

As for the second article, that is, there are local officials who rely on the sale of calligraphy and paintings to accept bribes in disguise, this kind of unskilled behavior has endured for thousands of years, and it is a typical use of power to seek money, but this is also the best to investigate.

"In addition to the officials who commit these two points will be suspended for inspection, there are two kinds of officials who will be dismissed!"

As soon as Zhu Yunwen's words changed, his tone became much colder.

"Anyone who likes to worship incense in temples and Taoist temples during his tenure will be expelled!

Anyone who prays for fear of the gods and befriends with warlocks during his tenure will be expelled!

Localities should self-examine and surrender themselves, and those who are worshiped by officials but concealed and not reported, and those who are found in local inventory and are not punished, will be immediately decided after the central authorities find out! ”

The brainwashing ability of religion can be called terrible, the Ming Dynasty is this ancient times, the ancients were even more fearful of the gods, and often did many superstitious things, such as many officials in the local government and county, they love to put a coffin in their central hall!

This is not Pound, who is learning to stop the coffin and fight to the death, flaunting that he intends to devote himself to the affairs of the country and die, just for the sake of promotion and fortune!

In the land of southern Fujian and Hunan Chu, the remnants of witchcraft and theology of the two-week period are still preserved, and there are often a group of things that dance the gods to bewitch people's hearts in the name of the sky, and even bewitch officials, making the place a mess of black smoke and miasma.

However, some officials believe deeply in Buddhism, and they turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear to the behavior of Buddhist temples in encroaching on acres of land, concealing the amount, and evading the payment of taxes.

What is this kind of official going to do?

Don't you believe in Buddha and God? (Our Jade Emperor was called God in ancient times, not the Yahaha in the West) then go home and believe it slowly, if you still believe it during your tenure, then Zhu Yunwen's task is to send them to see the Buddha God!

Mao Tai was so frightened that he was sweating coldly, and hurriedly recalled in his mind whether he had been to temples, Taoist temples and other places to make incense over the years.

"Officials who have made corrections since the promulgation of the regulations are not to blame."

Zhu Yunwen glanced at Mao Tai, seemed to see through the latter's frightened face, and then said: "Only those who are unwilling to correct must be strictly arrested, investigated, and severely punished!" ”

Mao Tai hurriedly stood up and bowed: "The minister will give the order, and he will convey it to the place, and he will carefully investigate and deal with it in the future, and he will not dare to relax." ”

"Hmm."

Regarding Mao Tai's attitude, Zhu Yunwen was still quite satisfied, glanced at Yang Pu, and beckoned: "Have you written down everything I said today?" ”

Yang Pu handed over the notebook: "Your Majesty's dictation, every word is not missing. ”

Shuangxi took the submission, and Zhu Yunwen nodded after reading it from top to bottom.

"However, take it back and polish it, compile it into a strip and keep it for the record, and add it in the future, and you can take out the postscript and put it later."

"Yes."

To the officer, Ding worry, dismissal, dismissal.

Zhu Yunwen has thought of these four items in the past few days, and when the time is ripe in the future, there will naturally be more detailed rules and regulations on the management of officials, and it will take more time to reform the old and make new things, and there will always be a time to finish them.

(April 10 has been on the shelves for a total of six days, with a total of 23 updates plus three chapters for the first time, a total of 26 updates, a total of 70,000 words, and an average of 11,000 words per day, thank you for your support.) ）
