Two people came to the Supervisory Committee, Cao Zhang and Wu Jin. Cao Zhang is a theoretician, and he has done theoretical research one by one, but if he really wants to implement it on specific matters, there are few means. The reason why he was elected chairman of the Supervision Committee was that firstly, it was to appease Cao Xin, secondly, that this person was a square person, and he was not inferior to Wu Jin when it came to the theory of death, and thirdly, he was the third person in the Yixing Society.

In the final analysis, supervision is a work that offends people, because the main task of supervision is actually internal. Corruption, abuse of power, and the use of public power for personal gain, each of these items is not so easy to accomplish. There is no hard background, and above this position, I am afraid that I will not be able to sit steadily.

Wu Jin is a doer, this person is not only impeccable in terms of personal morality, but more importantly, he has worked at the grassroots level for many years, and he is a person who has struggled step by step from the end of the strategy, and he is clear about the ghostly tricks at the bottom.

In a few years, Wu Jin has established his authority and has enough influence, and it will be logical to succeed Cao Zhang.

Looking at the two of them, in fact, Li Ze's eyes fell more on Wu Jin, and he said slowly: "After the reform, the power of the Supervision Committee has increased greatly, from me, the emperor, down to the most basic level of Lizheng, village elders, and officials, all belong to the scope of your supervision. In the past, although the Imperial Historical Observatory Supervisory Yuan also had these responsibilities, they did not have armed forces in their hands, but now the Supervisory Commission has a certain amount of armed forces in their hands, which is a good thing for you, but it is also a burden, do you understand this truth? ”

Both nodded.

After the reform, the Supervision Commission brought the arrest of the entire Tang Dynasty territory under its management, and these people became a paramilitary organization, named the Jing'an Army, and accepted dual management. It is not only deployed by the local government, but also supervised and dispatched by the Supervision Commission. Senior officials of the Jing'an Army at the provincial level are appointed by the Supervision Commission, while prefectures and counties are appointed by the local government and filed with the Supervision Commission. The Supervisory Commission has the power to transfer the Jing'an Army across provinces, while the local government does not have this power.

"Corruption cannot be eradicated." Li Zedao: "These people are like weeds in spring, they always cut a batch and grow a batch, so it is more effective to prevent the slightest problem and supervise it effectively than to kill one and set an example." How to make these people fearful is the most important task you will have to take on next. The improvement of the supervision system is the first thing you should do. Neither abuse of power nor looseness, the degree of this needs to be grasped well. ”

Wu Jin glanced at Li Ze and nodded: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister understands his duties." Our fundamental purpose is to serve the members of the committee, to clear the scum in the team for them, and to make their team more honest and efficient. We will act in accordance with the law and in a proper manner, and will not interfere with the normal operation of other departments. ”

In fact, the current Supervision Committee has taken on two responsibilities, one is to supervise the world, and the other is to protect peace. The Jing'an Army must shoulder the responsibility of local public security, petty theft, river and foreign thieves, and some petty thieves who are not in the climate. I don't want to use our military at home to solve the problem unless it is necessary. Li Ze looked at the two of them and said.

"Your Majesty rest assured." Wu Jin said: "The first thing in the next step, our Supervision Committee is to clean up their own team, especially the Jing'an Army, the previous arrest was uneven, even in Wuyi, Cangzhou and other places, there are a large number of unqualified people in the arrest, this time, we have to carry out a major rectification." We have cleared our own team, and then we can do what we have to do. ”

"This is a smashing of people's jobs, so you have to be careful when you do it." Li Ze admonished.

"Your Majesty, don't worry!" Wu Jin said: "There are many means, you have to let these people leave obediently, if you really want to make trouble, then you have to settle the old accounts, I believe they are still smart enough." ”

Li Ze laughed: "Also, as soon as your Wu Jin's name appears, I am afraid that the vast majority of people in the world who have ghosts in their hearts will be a little afraid of themselves first, and those who can get out of the way will take the opportunity to slip away." ”

Wu Jin regarded Li Ze's words as a kind of praise for him.

Those who do this line of work must be blackfaced. There will be no end to those who have offended. Cao Zhang is not afraid of offending people, he doesn't care about offending people. Becoming a lonely minister is Wu Jin's psychological preparation for a long time.

"Cao Zhang, you are in charge, there should always be a number in mind for the specific strategy, right?" Looking at Cao Zhang, who was a little out of the world from time to time, Li Ze reminded him.

Cao Zhangleng was stunned for a moment before he said: "Your Majesty, Wu Jin and I have already done a clear division of labor, and my main work is still to be placed on the social affairs of Yixing Society." Zhang Gong has talked to me, what His Majesty said about civilizing his mind and barbarizing his body, I think this is a big article, and my next focus is on this. The affairs of the Supervision Committee are mainly in charge of Wu Jin. Unless he has something or someone he can't figure out, come back to me. ”

After a pause, Cao Zhang said again: "Actually, I have also talked to Wu Jin, in the current situation, our supervision work still has to be divided into priorities, that is, to concentrate on sweeping flies and mosquitoes first, I remember you once said that these guys have close contact with the common people, and they are also the most harmful to the ordinary people, and the common people suffer deeply, and getting rid of them is excellent for rectifying the social atmosphere." As for lions and tigers, let's take our time. Either don't move, or move, it is the power of thunder, and you must not let the other party have the slightest possibility of resistance. ”

"In our opinion, the biggest problem for Datang at present is the issue of reunification with the south. Under the situation of this grand strategy, it is not easy to make big moves internally. Wu Jin said: "But not moving does not mean that we are laissez-faire, and the accounts still have to be written down one by one." ”

"That's great!" Seeing that these two people were very clear-headed, Li Ze was also very pleased, to be honest, he was really afraid that these two people would make a mistake, and it would be really difficult to handle it at that time.

Some people really can't move now.

No matter what you do, you can't rush it. You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, otherwise, you will have to burn your mouth. No matter what we do, we must always do it on the premise of stabilizing the overall situation, and on this basis, many things have to be pretended not to be seen or heard.

But as Wu Jin said, there is no fear of accounting, it's not that you don't report it, it's just that the time has not come.

The last person to see Li Ze was Gongsun Changming.

It's a secretive, huge, and powerful organization beyond anyone could have imagined. It's Li Ze, I don't know how many people are serving his intelligence department, in the past ten years, under the auspices of Gongsun Changming, under the specific operation of Tian Bo and Gao Xiangsheng, Datang's internal security has developed rapidly, footprints all over the world, not only has its own armed forces, but also has quite a huge economic resources, in Li Ze's view, this organization that he relies on very much, is now about to become a unicorn monster.

This is clearly not possible.

"The internal guard needs to be cleaned up." Li Ze said bluntly to Gongsun Changming: "The armed forces and economic forces owned by the internal guards will all be within the scope of the purge. ”

"Your Majesty, force is the claw of the internal guard, money is the means of the internal guard, if you cut these two pieces, the power of the internal guard will inevitably be greatly weakened." Gongsun Changming disagreed. "Right now, it's not the time for swords and guns to be put into storage, and horses to be put in Nanshan."

"No one has ever said that knives and guns should be put into storage, and horses will be put in Nanshan. In fact, we will never be able to do that. I'm talking about the change in the internal guard. In short, the armed forces of the internal guard must be reorganized, in short, the armed forces can only belong to the military committee, and when the internal guard needs to mobilize the armed forces, it must be approved by the military committee. ”

"What about the funding?"

"The funds for the internal guard can only be allocated!" Li Zedao: "The budget at the beginning of the year, the year-end accounts, and the need for additional funds for unexpected matters, will be checked separately. ”

"But there are some things that can't be put on the table and can't be put into the account." Gongsun Changming said urgently.

"For this kind of thing, a special fund can be set up, and this special fund can be made without review." Li Zedao: "This is my biggest concession. ”

Looking at Li Ze's indistinguishable appearance, Gongsun Changming sighed and said, "Your Majesty, the internal guard has always been loyal. In doing so, it will undoubtedly tie their hands and feet. ”

"The hands and feet of the guards must be restrained." Li Zedao: "Now they are too bold and their steps are too big, and some things, once revealed, will inevitably cause a big uproar in the world." We have to learn self-discipline, and it is good for you. Mr. Gongsun, do you believe that if there is a strict financial inspection, many people in the internal guard are afraid that they will lose their heads. I know that these people are born and die, and they do all the work of tying their heads around their belts, but as we said at the Yixing Social Assembly, people need to have faith. ”

"But people also eat whole grains."

"Yes, so the salary we give to the internal guard is the highest, and there are all kinds of subsidies, all in all, the income of an ordinary internal guard can be worth the income of the county order of a high-class county." Li Zedao: "The abscesses that should be removed should be removed as soon as possible, and the diseases that should be treated must be cured while they have not yet developed and grown, otherwise the further they are delayed, the greater the harm will be caused." ”

"Well, now that Your Majesty has made a decision, the Intelligence Committee will follow it."

"It's not my decision, it's the decision of the Supreme Council." Li Ze shook his head and said: "You still have a chance to plead, how much can you get, let's talk about it at the meeting." But once a resolution is formed, it cannot be disobeyed, and it cannot be disobeyed, Wu Jin's temper, you also know. ”
