Chapter 504: Huang Huai's Report

Huang Huai agreed. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 However, he felt that these people should be sent back to their hometowns, but since the emperor had already made a decision, he would not object to it.

"Your Majesty, dozens of people have been interrogated now, and many of them have confessed their net worth. There are a lot of people who are worth hundreds of dollars, and a few people who are worth more than 1,000 yuan. Your Majesty, what to do with these people? Huang Huai asked for instructions with a look of disgust and resentment.

Thousands of dollars? If this is left at the end of the Ming Dynasty, it is nothing, when the Manchu Qing Dynasty was in the Jiangnan Massacre, any generation of officials could copy out a net worth of tens of thousands of taels of silver. But now this is the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang also 'cleaned up' the officials once in the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu, and the thousands of dollars are already very much.

Yun Xi couldn't help but blush. In the past two years, he has carried out too many reforms, and the supervision is mainly aimed at officials, so he has neglected the supervision of officials.

Therefore, "Yang Zirong, in the draft decree, ordered each to investigate the local officials according to the inspection and envoy department, the political envoy department, and the prefecture and county, and at least dismiss and convict two percent of the officials." Yun Xi first issued such an order, and directly set the target.

Now, after all, the Ming Dynasty has not long been founded, even if Zhu Yuanzhang's original 'old base area' has only belonged to the Ming Dynasty for more than 40 years, and there is no deep-rooted force in the local government, and the local officials can still complete the task of Yunxi. If it was at the end of the Ming Dynasty, Yunxi's order would not have worked in most places.

Yang Zirong immediately began to draft the purpose. Yun Xi turned his head and said to Huang Huai: "These families have found more than 120 yuan of money, I remember the last time the emperor revised the "Da Ming Law" when he was there, and the bottom line set for the punishment was 120 yuan? ā€

"All these men were put to death, and the whole city was announced in advance, so that the people could watch at that time." The corrupt people at the grassroots level feel it the most deeply and disgusted the most, and their public executions will be highly praised by the people.

Huang Huai agreed, but then said: "Your Majesty, but there are still some officials whose family wealth is less than one hundred and twenty yuan, how to deal with these people?" ā€

"Huh?" Yun Xi looked at Huang Huai suspiciously: "This time, did Jinyi Wei and Zhensi give you a list of all the officials who have done illegal things?" I remember just asking the two of them to give you a list of the more serious crimes? ā€

"Your Majesty, what Jinyi Wei and Zhensi give to their ministers is indeed only a list of officials who have committed more serious crimes. However, some of these officials are good at gambling, some of them have just had their homes stolen, and some of them have just recently spent all their money and property for something, so their family wealth will be less than 120 yuan. Huang Huai explained.

"What is it that has spent all the money in the family, what is it?" Yoon-hee asked.

"Your Majesty, there are three people who bribed officials in the court, and there is a family child who accidentally provoked the concubine Duwei and Ji'an Hou Lu Xian, and the whole family was ruined. There is also a person who wants to get rid of the children at home, up and down. Huang Huai said.

Yun Xi thought for a moment and said, "Since the state has national law, it must be done in accordance with national law." No matter what happened to these people, the money in the family is not enough to behead them, so they will be exiled to Yongming. What about the list of officials who took bribes? Can there be important ministers of the court? ā€

"Your Majesty, there are no important ministers of the court, just a few minor officials." Huang Huai said.

"In that case, tomorrow you will officially impeach these people, and I will deal with them according to law." Yun Xi said.

"As for Lu Xian, he is in the capital, how much is the lawlessness?"

"Your Majesty, Ji'anhou's family, there are many lawlessness. The minister was the county magistrate of Shangyuan before, and he also received accusations from the officials about his illegality. Huang Huai said.

"What about the other nobles?" Yun Xi then asked.

"Wei Guogong, Zheng Guogong, Huining Hou, Wuding Hou, Changxing Hou, and Dongchuan Hou are very strict in governing their families, and there are no bad deeds; Other nobles, family members have a little lawlessness. Huang Huai said.

Yun Xi whispered: "Sooner or later, I will punish you." But put the matter aside for the time being, and said, "What about the ruffians who were captured? What is the family's wealth? ā€

Huang Huai said: "Your Majesty, most of these people are homeless, and they spend their money when they get it, and most of them don't have any money in their hands. A few who have a family and a business have some money, but it is less than that of the officials. ā€

Yun Xi pondered for a moment and said, "Since this is the case, then it will be dealt with as a thief, and if there is a murder, it will be dealt with together." But no matter what they do, they must be put to death enough, and there must be no one who does not deserve to die. ā€

But he thought about it for a while, and said, "Forget it, let's deal with it according to the "Da Ming Law". Those who don't deserve to die will be exiled to Yunnan. ā€

Yun Xi originally thought that if someone's crime did not reach the death penalty according to the current law, he would impose the death penalty for the crime; But after thinking about it again, the law still has to be obeyed, if he instructs the minister not to abide by the law, then the "Da Ming Law" is completely a decoration.

Huang Huai promised.

Yun Xi said: "I don't have anything to order, you divide the patrol police, tax police, and criminal police according to my previous arrangement, and hand them over to the general judge, the middle judge, and the lieutenant to manage, and you should pay more attention to the affairs of the county." ā€

"For the retained officials, we must pay attention to precautions, and do not let the new veterans be contaminated with their bad habits."

"Continue to manage the police in accordance with military law, and those who are not accustomed to it and find it difficult to adapt to it will be dismissed and must not be tolerated."

Yun Xi spent a long time in order to make Huang Huai understand the necessity of dividing the three policemen, and told him what the three policemen were responsible for, which finally made Huang Huai understand. If it weren't for the fact that he had come forward in person, he would have come forward in person.

And Yunxi also temporarily found two helpers for Huang Huai. "Yang Zirong and Hu Guang also understand what I mean, I will temporarily let the two of them add the title and go to Yingtianfu to help you."

"Yes, Your Majesty. It's really good that His Majesty has given the ministers a helper, and the ministers are really too busy: they have to deal with the arrested officials and bullies, and they have to tell the officials of the prefecture and county what to do, and they have to divide the three policemen, which is really too busy. Huang Huai smiled.

Yun Xi also smiled: "Didn't I find you a helper?" ā€

At this time, the business has been finished, and Yang Zirong's holy decree has been drawn up, and Yun Xi has stamped it and issued it after reading it. Then he said to Huang Huai: "Huang Huai, since you served as the magistrate of Shangyuan County at the beginning of last year, you have been serving as the magistrate of the capital for more than a year. Yun Xi still didn't know the bottom of his heart, so he asked.

"Your Majesty's reform, of course, is better than the previous Xu officials entrenched between the government and the people, and their hands up and down. It's just that with so many additional economic personnel, if it's just the capital, if it's just a place in the capital, and if it is extended to the whole country, can it afford such a big expense? Huang Huai said.

Yun Xi didn't expect him to be worried about this, and said, "You don't have to worry. How did these white-bodied officials feed their families in the past, and they didn't exploit the people? As long as the excise tax on merchants is raised slightly, it is enough to cover the income of these people. The people's burdens are lighter than ever. ā€

But how can we ensure that these policemen will not blackmail the people like officials in the future? After the implementation of the new system, they will not be able to use their hands in lawsuits, and it will be difficult for them to harm the public and private interests when collecting taxes, but when handling cases and patrolling the streets, they extort the people and collude with petty theft, and I am afraid it will be difficult to completely prevent them. Huang Huai said.

"Even if there are so many pairs of eyes staring at the capital, they can not dare to harass the people; However, in other places, especially in prefectures and counties, there is not so much supervision, and I am afraid it will be difficult to prevent it. ā€

This question is critical, and Yun Xi can't answer it. Even in later generations, when the Internet was extremely developed, the violent law enforcement of urban management was almost extinct, and there were many cases of police and thieves in contact.

Yun Xi thought for a while, and finally said: "No matter what, it's better than the previous Xu official system." As a lowly person, the three generations of descendants have no possibility of advancement, and will only make a lot of money; And these veterans are converted into policemen, but the family members are still in the military, and the elimination system is implemented, and the eliminated policemen will also implicate their families, and they will always have scruples. ā€

Huang Huai, who said Yunxi, also agreed that it was better than the Xu official system, and the management of the marching law was also easier to manage.

After that, Huang Huai retreated, and Yun Xi continued to reply and fold.

The next day, Huang Huai really played the excerpt of impeaching those officials, and Yun Xi dealt with them on the spot and dismissed them all.

In the next few days, Huang Huai divided three police officers in Yingtianfu and his subordinate two counties. The patrol police had the most, with 2,400 people, more than the previous officials of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division. However, Yun Xi's patrol police are not only patrol police, but also take on the responsibilities of the people's police and even the neighborhood offices in later generations, implement the 'police administration', and set up police stations in the whole city in the future, so there are many people.

There are more than 200 criminal police officers in charge of criminal cases. In order to make it more convenient for the criminal police to handle cases, Yun Xi even wanted them to be equipped with muskets, but was dissuaded by Huang Huai, and in the end they were only equipped with waist knives and cloth armor.

The least are the tax police, just over a hundred people. Because the merchants are fixed, and there are very few rural areas under the jurisdiction of these two counties, there are not too many people.

One of their main responsibilities was, on the contrary, the work of the later generations of chengguan, not to allow small traders and hawkers to set up their stalls casually, and to collect taxes from these people in the prescribed places.

The second main duty of the tax police is to collect road taxes at various important places. At this time, all the people in the Propaganda Department and the Tax Division were also reorganized into tax police, and the ambassadors maintained their official positions from Jiupin and were directly under the jurisdiction of Zhizhong. But all of their officials were dismissed, and new tax officers were appointed to assist in collecting taxes.

The total number of police officers exceeded the previous estimate, and Yun Xi recruited disabled veterans from other Jingwei to make up for it.

In addition, the guards who guarded the city gates were also transformed into policemen, called 'city gate guards,' who were still responsible for guarding the city gates.

It also took a long time to reform the power of officials in the prefecture and county, and many officials did not adapt to it, and Huang Huai, Yang Zirong, and Hu Guang worked hard to get things done.
