The inspectorate of the Tang Dynasty is not the same as the inspectorate of the Ming Dynasty and other ancient feudal dynasties!

The Inspectorate of the Tang Dynasty only has two functions and powers, one is to prosecute all kinds of civil cases, and the other is to supervise hundreds of officials.

The former is the basic essence of the work of the Inspectorate, and it is the duty to do a good job, and it is not good to get out!

The latter, however, is a plus, the officials of the Inspectorate want to be promoted and make a fortune, and they basically expect to be able to catch a corrupt official and successfully convict him! Because the officials of the Inspectorate can only be promoted internally, and the main consideration for internal promotion is how many corrupt officials and how many levels of corrupt officials the officials of the Inspectorate have arrested.

If an inspector in a prefecture-level inspectorate can convict the local prefect, then needless to say, he will be immediately promoted to the province or even directly transferred to the central government.

Therefore, the officials in the Inspectorate immediately pounced on the smell of corrupt officials as they smelled the smell of being promoted and making a fortune.

You go to the Inspectorate to report the corrupt officials, and the officials of the Inspectorate will immediately give you good food and drink, and if the report is true, the Inspectorate will also give you a bonus!

In many cases, the local inspectorate often has great contradictions with the local government, because they are naturally opposed, and the officials in the inspectorate want to be promoted and rich, so they have to arrest corrupt officials.

Of course, the above can only be said to be the most ideal situation, no matter how good the system will be destroyed, if the local inspectors would rather not be promoted, and have to be in cahoots with local officials, then there is no way, at this time, can only rely on the internal inspection and anti-corruption agencies of the Inspectorate to deal with it.

Of course, there is also an informal situation that in addition to counter-espionage and supervising major changes in public sentiment, the Survey and Statistics Department of the Hanlin Academy occasionally meddles in such major illegal affairs of officials.

However, they still have the power to investigate secretly, and finally report to Li Xuan, as for whether to deal with it or not, it depends on Li Xuan's mood.

Although there are not many cases of officials, especially high-ranking officials, bending the law in the Tang Dynasty, it has been two years since the rise of the Tang Dynasty, and the days when everyone tightened their belts together to do the revolution are also in the past, and many people have begun to be eroded by hedonism.

And in this regard, Li Xuan also turned a blind eye, unless the impact was relatively large and the nature was relatively bad, otherwise, Li Xuan would not be able to accept some money from these ministers under his hands.

After all, people follow you to fight the country, and you have been living a hard life without getting a salary for several years, and now that the life of the Tang Dynasty is getting better, you still don't let your family enjoy the glory and wealth.

Although the salary given to officials in the Tang Dynasty is not low, an official in this year often has a large family to support behind him, and they want to maintain the dignity of officials, which costs a lot of money, and now the Tang Dynasty fights every day, and the financial revenue is used for military spending, administrative expenses are in short supply, and arrears of officials' salaries are also common.

Therefore, Li Xuan didn't care much about the fact that these middle and high-ranking officials under his command were just making a little money to improve their lives and maintain decency.

But everything has to have a degree, and once this degree is passed, Li Xuan will not hesitate to ask the Investigation and Statistics Department of the Hanlin Academy to take out the evidence and deal with it.

In the past year, although the Shangshu-level officials have not dealt with it, the squire has already killed two, and the fourth-rank and fifth-grade officials under the squire have killed a lot.

However, these things dealing with middle and high-ranking officials are generally relatively secretive, and many times they are not directly arrested and convicted, but directly sent someone from the Investigation and Statistics Department of the Hanlin Academy to the door, bringing a copy of Li Xuan's dictation, poison or a piece of white silk.

Let these corrupt officials decide on their own!

Normally, in order to save their families and their names, even if these officials are unwilling, they will still tremble and drink the poison in the end.

And this kind of thing is usually circulated within the high-level of the imperial court, but the outside world generally does not know, this is mainly to control the influence, after all, the current Tang Dynasty is still in the rising stage, Li Xuan can't make people feel that the current Tang Dynasty is already degenerate and rotten, full of a group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials!

In particular, the image of middle and high-level officials needs to be maintained!

People have to think that the Tang Dynasty as a whole is still good, His Majesty is still wise and great, and the ministers in the court are still fair and honest, but there are a handful of middle and low-level officials who are corrupt and pervert the law.

But the actual situation is that the upper beam is not correct and the lower beam is crooked, and the trend of corruption and perversion of the law has always been up and down, and no one can say that no one is not.

Even Liu Bagou, who has the best self-discipline in the court, is not wearing a tattered robe now, but living a life of brocade clothes and fine food, but the interesting thing is that this person is now prosperous and rich, but he still doesn't marry a wife.

As for Wang Wenhua's doglegs, there are seven or eight concubines, and in less than two years, four sons have been born!

This made Li Xuan, who only has one daughter, quite envious to be honest!

Dong Yunyun was pregnant last year, and gave birth to a little princess to Li Xuan this autumn, although it was said that it was a princess and not a prince, which made the Empress Dowager Bai and even the ministers outside quite disappointed, but Li Xuan was very happy!

This is the first child he has in his first life, although he also hopes that the child born by Dong Yunyun will be a boy in his heart, so that he can solve the problem of the heir of the empire and consolidate the country.

And Empress Dong is the queen of the harem, and the first prince she gave birth to will be the rightful prince and the prince of the Tang Dynasty.

But since it's not a prince, but a princess, it's useless to think about it.

But aside from political factors, Li Xuan actually has no prejudice against men and women, so he also attaches great importance to his first child.

Because the death rate of children in this era is too high, the royal family is no exception, so Li Xuan has also made great efforts to prevent his little princess from dying young.

He even personally formulated a scientific raising plan, and selected the healthiest women to act as nurses, and the palace maids who took care of the princess were all taken care of by Li Xuan and several personal palace maids around him, Li Xuan's personal palace maids were basically from the royal lady's garden, and they were female orphans cultivated by the royal family themselves, and the Empress Dowager Bai personally cultivated them, and their quality in all aspects was quite good, and most of these personal maids around Li Xuan were also trained by Li Xuan and had some of the most basic scientific literacy.

At the same time, the life of the little princess implements strict health standards, and anyone who is sick, especially someone who is suspected of catching a cold, is not allowed to approach the house where the princess lives, and this order even includes Dong Yunyun and Empress Dowager Bai.

At the same time, he had someone from the Royal Pacific Hospital stationed on site to monitor any risk of illness at all times.

But even so, Li Xuan was a little uneasy, but unfortunately, the medical level in these years was still too poor, although he had already established the Guozijian Medical Department, and he also selected a few people in the young military camp to study medicine.

And it was the beginning of the use of the rudimentary telescopes that they had made to study microorganisms, and the medical students began to secretly dissect corpses and study the structure of the human body.

But all this time is still too short, and it is almost impossible for Li Xuan to see the emergence of modern medicine in a short period of time!

Li Xuan, who attaches great importance to the eldest daughter, even followed the advice of the Empress Dowager Bai against his will, saying that in order to let the princess grow up safely, don't give the title too early, otherwise, he is going to directly hold a canonization ceremony when the eldest daughter is full moon and grant the official princess title.

Now it's just a name 'Li Wei', nicknamed Wei'er!

Of course, Li Xuan won't tell anyone that 'Wei'er' is the name of his first girlfriend!

Taking this name can be regarded as a glimmer of hope for the past life!

However, although Li Xuan attaches great importance to the young daughter Li Wei, his attention does not mean that others also attach importance to it, at least the Empress Dowager Bai does not attach much importance to it, because in her eyes, only a boy born can be considered a success.

Not to mention Li Wei's granddaughter, even if it is the eldest princess Huichen, the biological daughter of the Empress Dowager Bai, the Empress Dowager Bai doesn't pay much attention to it, otherwise, she wouldn't let Huichen's weight continue to soar in recent years, Huichen, who is thirteen years old this year, weighs seventy kilograms at least, and his character is not very tall, so when he looks at it from a distance, it looks like a round ball.

However, in addition to being able to eat obesity, although Princess Huichen has not suffered from illness or anything in recent years, although she is not taken seriously, she is the eldest princess after all, and there is no problem with worry-free food and clothing.

Even in the early years, Empress Dowager Bai couldn't even think of letting people teach Princess Huichen to read and write, and in the end, when Li Xuan found out that Princess Huichen was still illiterate, he specially found a few literary female officials to enlighten Huichen to read, and after studying for more than a year, he was finally not as ignorant as before, he only knew how to eat and eat!

Speaking of which, Princess Huichen is actually quite pitiful, in the huge palace, grandma doesn't love her uncle and doesn't hurt, to be honest, except for Li Xuan, the eldest brother, who occasionally cares about her, everyone else basically doesn't care about her, even if it's the Empress Dowager Bai.

This is thirteen years old, if it is placed in other feudal royal families in ancient times, it is already considered to have grown up, and it is estimated that there is already a mother concubine who has already begun to prepare to choose a horse for a princess of this age, but the Empress Dowager Bai was stunned and did not make any move.

Don't think that what the Empress Dowager Bai thinks is that she wants Princess Huichen to stay by her side for two more years, worrying that Huichen is too young to marry too early and hurt her body, this idea is only Li Xuan will have, and the Empress Dowager Bai definitely does not have this kind of thought!

The real situation is that Empress Dowager Bai never remembered that she had a daughter who had reached the age when she could prepare to choose a colt first and marry directly in a few years.

Now the Empress Dowager Bai has set her sights on Concubine Ye and Concubine Wang, because these two women are already pregnant, and Empress Dowager Bai is waiting for them to give birth to a son to Li Xuan and an heir to the Tang Dynasty!
