Zhao Chongguo, Bingji, and Wang Ji stood on the wall of Linzi City accompanied by the history of Qingxu Yang Sanzhou, looking at the scenery in the distance.

In the middle of October, winter is approaching in the south, and the wind begins to become cold, but in the increasingly cold days, in order to make a living, the people of the southeast still need to work in the cold wind and the freezing river.

The cold wind whistling in the mountains blew over the towering city wall and swept through Zhao Chongguo's body, in the cold wind, Zhao Chongguo felt a little cold, tightened the cloak on his body and said: "The wind of the king, from the end of Qingping, Bing Tingwei, Wang Zhongcheng, has been in Linzi for a few days, I don't know how the two of you rested? ? Do you have the strength to extinguish the evil wind of this shareholder?? ”

Hearing the words of Zhao Chongguo, Wang Ji was still silent and pretended not to hear, and talked quietly with He Jian, the Qingzhou assassin next to him.

Bingji smiled when he saw Wang Ji's style and didn't pay attention to it, but looked at Zhao Chongguo in front of him and said: "I've been in Linzi for a few days, and I have also relieved the fatigue of the journey.

Hearing Bingji's answer, Zhao Chongguo secretly scolded the old fox in his heart, but his face did not show and continued: "We are deeply blessed by the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven sent us to pacify the rebellion in the southeast, but I have also come to Linzi City for a few days. ”

Hearing Zhao Chongguo's question, Bingji smiled and then Zhao Chongguo's words said: "The Taoist is chaotic, the Taoist rule is the law, do not nitpick and seek small flaws, since the southeastern ministers have no supreme king, and raise the hearts of the people, why exist in the world, Han Feiziyun: Survival is in the void and reality, not in the widowhood, since the culture and education do not listen, they can only be influenced by the martial virtues of the Son of Heaven, and also ask General Zhao to disperse his party, collect the rest, close his door, and take away his auxiliary, so that the country is without tigers!! ”

When He Jian and other officials of the Assassin History Mansion in the three southeastern states heard it, the conversation between Zhao Chongguo and Bingji was immediately terrifying.

When the position of the assassin was formulated, Emperor Xiaowu and the princes of the court set six questions for the assassins of Kyushu, and grasped the key point of supervising the locality.

Emperor Xiaowu specified clear supervision responsibilities for the assassin history, called "six questions", the specific content is:

First, the powerful and bullies occupy the fields and bully the weak;

Second, the county guard of 2,000 stones confronted the central government and oppressed the people;

Article 3, the county guard of 2,000 stone is corrupt and violates the law, and kills innocents indiscriminately;

Fourth, the county guard of 2,000 stones is cronyistic and does not raise meritocracy;

Fifth, the county guard of 2,000 stones relies on power and pulls relations indiscriminately;

Sixth, the county guard of 2,000 stones colluded with the powerful and did not obey the government order.

Except for the first of the six, the remaining five were all for the 2,000-stone guard.

In addition to the six articles, there is an unwritten one, that is, the investigation of the king's guilt will be heard, and the lawless king will be punished for this, and the content of supervising the king will not be included in the clear text, because the Han family has ruled the world with filial piety, and what is the system of shouting and shouting to the princes and kings of the same clan, and this problem is no longer very urgent.

In the early days of the Han Dynasty, the dual-track system of parallel counties and states was implemented at the local level, and after Emperor Xiaojing quelled the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms, the power of the vassal states was weakened.

After Emperor Xiaowu Liu Che ascended the throne, he still took the vassal states first, and the lord father Yan proposed a decree of encouragement, stipulating that in addition to the eldest son of the king to inherit the throne, other sons could divide the marquis in the country, so that several small marquis states were divided from the vassal states, so that the direct territories of the vassal states continued to shrink.

Later, Emperor Xiaowu took the title of one hundred and six princes under the pretext of the old gift money, and forbade the officials of the vassal states to serve in the court to prevent them from interfering in the affairs of the central government.

After a series of rectification, the vassal states were greatly damaged, and could not constitute a serious threat to the central government, so Emperor Xiaowu freed up his hands to rectify the prefectures and counties, and the county guard of 2,000 stones was the head of a county.

Anbang first settles the head, the governor first supervises the king, and the six questions are mainly aimed at the local officials of the two thousand stones of the county and country in the world.

To solve problems at this level, it is also important to focus on them, such as whether they can conscientiously implement the principles and policies of the central authorities, whether they abuse the criminal law, bully the people, and so on.

As early as the day when Zhi Jinwu, Tingwei, and Yushi Zhongcheng arrived in Linzi, He Jian and others ordered the county guards of Sanzhou and the county to report on their work in Linzi, but it has been three days, and none of the county guards have arrived in Linzi.

And today, Zhi Jinwu and Ting Weiqing have expressed their positions, saying that the southeast is full of chaotic ministers and thieves, in other words, the history of the Sanzhou Assassin has not fulfilled its due responsibility.

The lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, the lord humiliates the ministers to death, since the face of the monarch has been disgraced, why should he and others stay in the world, He Jian thought silently.

Zhao Chongguo looked at the ashamed assassins, Zhao Chongguo knew in his heart that most of these people were unjustified, but the Han officials have always been strong, and when they are humiliated, they will definitely give back, and if it is because of official business, when they can't get it back, they will definitely commit suicide to thank the world.

So when he came, the Son of Heaven specially issued an edict to himself, asking him to amnesty the officials who fulfilled their duties in the southeast in the name of the Queen Mother.

Therefore, Zhao Chongguo is ready to let the Sanzhou Assassin History Department go, let them treat their crimes and make meritorious contributions, and repay the benevolence of their father.

Zhao Chongguo turned around slowly, looked at the ashamed assassins in front of him and said sharply: "What are you doing, the sky hasn't fallen yet, what are you doing with a sad face?" The monarch has entrusted the important task of the southeast to you, what will you do to govern the southeast!! ”

Hearing Zhi Jinwu's reprimand, He Jian and the others immediately blushed, and immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look at Zhao Chongguo in front of them.

Seeing their reflections, Zhao Chongguo smiled in his heart, but with a stern and angry look on his face, he continued to reprimand: "The Han family started from Emperor Taizong Xiaowen, and the sons of heaven in all dynasties were afraid that the counties and counties in the world would abide by the county orders and disrupt the government and harm the people, so Emperor Xiaowu divided the county of the world into Kyushu and set up the Kyushu Thorn History Department, which is to supervise whether there are any wrongdoing in the county guards, but I never thought that no one would be loyal to the monarch and patriotic, these rats are really hateful!! ”

Hearing Zhao Chongguo's words, He Jian and the others immediately bowed to the ground and said: "The ministers are guilty, let the monarch be ashamed, and the ministers are guilty of capital crimes, capital crimes!" ”

Zhao Chongguo sighed, walked to their side, helped them up one by one, took out an edict from his arms and said loudly: "Qingxu Yang Sanzhou Assassin Shi received the edict!! ”

Everyone present immediately fell to the ground.

Zhao Chongguo glanced at it and found that no one was arrogant and continued: "Edict of the Son of Heaven: I inherited the holy thread of the first emperor, won the Fengzong Zhou, trembling, no slackness, the emperor is above, the earth is below, I heard that the rule of the people is impermanent, only the law is the rule, the law and the time are changed, and the rule is meritorious, so the governance of the lord of the Ming Dynasty is also, the reward is clear, and the people are persuaded to persuade merit; Severe punishment, persuade the people to be pro-law, now the Queen Mother is about to die, Tianhan has been filial piety to govern the country, I am grateful for the Queen Mother's benevolence, amnesty for the subjects of the southeast who know their mistakes, proclamation at home and abroad, Xian makes the envoy know, admire this!! ”

The ministers immediately bowed and said: "Wait for the ministers, take the edict"

Note: The edict of the Han Dynasty: "The Han System" says:

There are four books under the emperor: one is the policy book, the second is the preparation book, the third is the edict, and the fourth is the edict. The planner, the compilation is also, the length of the system is two feet, the short one is half a piece, the seal book, the year, the month, the day, called the emperor, in order to order the princes and kings. The three dukes also give advice with the exemption of crimes, and with the official book, with a ruler and two lines of wood, this is the only difference. The bookmaker, the order of the emperor's system, its text is called "the three princes of the edict", all sealed, the Shangshu order is resealed, and the county of Lubu Prefecture is also. The edict, the edict, the edict, the text of the "sue a certain official cloud [cloud]", such as a story. Those who admonish are called assassinating the history and guarding too much, and their text says "there is an edict for a certain official". It's all like that.
