Not long after, in one of the best inns in Pingyuan City, in a spacious and bright bedroom, Yuan Xi sat directly on the desk, and the man surnamed Xu was kneeling in front of him.

"It's been three years, right?" After a moment of silence, Yuan Xi asked.

The man nodded immediately, but did not reply.

"You still haven't let go of that incident back then," Yuan Xi asked softly.

"The grass people are ashamed, I'm sorry for the old man, I'm sorry for the dead little Rou girl, if it weren't for the grass people's youth, too proud, too arrogant, you can definitely avoid that turmoil" The man raised his head slightly, with a little tears in his eyes.

Yuan Xi shook his head, stood up and said, "Xu Miao, until now, do you still think that the incident back then was just your reason?" ”

It turned out that the man who had just solved the murder case was Xu Miao, who had caused a huge storm in Youzhou, and was the first to hold the tiger gold order given by Yuan Xi to thoroughly investigate the case of the second young woman of the Yu family.

"Nope! The grass people later figured out that all this was the king's means to eradicate all the old ministers of the Youzhou faction," Xu Miao said in a loud voice.

The corners of Yuan Xi's mouth lifted and said, "In that case, why are you so guilty, is it a strange orphan?" ”

"Nope! If the king doesn't have such means, how can he achieve the current brilliant hegemony" Xu Miao said with reverence on his face, when he went to Youzhou, Yuan Xi didn't say that now, even Youzhou was still in internal and external troubles at that time.

"Then why don't you come to Yecheng" Yuan Xi was a little curious.

Xu Miao smiled bitterly and blamed himself: "The case back then, although it was the king's means to eradicate the old minister, but it was also the grass heart who wanted to be in the limelight too much, ignoring the psychological burden that Lao Zhang, a poor person, could bear, if the minister could be calm at that time, he would not take him straight to the assassination mansion, but first silently find out the evidence, if the grass people can be fair, you can quickly see Ah Hu's huge suspicion, the king is not wrong, the king just borrowed this matter, and in the end he will not let go of the real murderer, The fault is the self-interest of the grass people who try to become famous."

"Hahaha" Yuan Xi's eyes showed a strong appreciation, a good Xu Miao, although he is upright but respects the king, there are many courtiers in all dynasties, they are righteous and awe-inspiring, uphold the law, but often ignore the royal power, maybe some emperors can allow it, but he will not allow it, the royal power is supreme.

Yuan Xi gently helped Xu Miao up, and said solemnly: "Jingshan, when you are a servant, you can only settle grievances, my Dayan is so vast now, I need talents like you to preside over justice, set things right, don't run away, do a great job, so that you don't pay what you have learned, and you can really get the old man who committed suicide and don't make such a tragedy happen again."

"King" Xu Miao's eyes suddenly showed a deep sense of emotion.

"What do you want to do, say? Lonely is satisfied with you," Yuan Xi said gently.

"King, the grass people have traveled to many places in the past three years, if you really ask what you want to do, the grass people just want to do something for the people" Xu Miao's face flashed a trace of determination.

Yuan Xi smiled slightly, sat down on the desk again, and said solemnly: "Say? How do you want to? ”

"The king, the minister wants to carry out a huge change in the government officials of all prefectures, counties, and counties," Xu Miao said.

Yuan Xi was stunned for a moment, a trace of surprise flashed on his face, and said, "You also want to use the government."

"Yes, the king, the officials of the prefectures, counties, and counties are all experts in the handling of civil affairs, but there are great deficiencies in murders, doubtful cases, and other kinds of cases, and the officials do just happen to be handy in this regard, many cases, the officials do not even need to be broken, as long as they rely on the relationship between the streets and alleys, they can get the news, and the reason why they have no motivation and not enough achievements is entirely in the part of the officials, there is not enough development of the world, so the grass people start to play, and all the officials in various places are independent, Divide the detailed promotion ranks, clarify the goals, and improve the status of the officials in the court," Xu Miao said solemnly.

Yuan Xi frowned, and said: "This matter, Shang Shutai has also discussed, but my Dayan has consumed a lot now, if the government is independent, it will need the treasury to bear it, and the pressure is not small!" ”

"The king doesn't have to worry, the minister has also thought about this matter, but after the minister carefully understood, he found that there is actually a directional problem here, in fact, it doesn't matter, the loss is greater" Xu Miao said with a smile.

"Oh! Let's talk about it," Yuan Xi was looking forward to it.

"In fact, at present, the government, counties, and counties have very little money for the government officials, and the money for the government officials mainly comes from the extortion of some vendors, as well as the so-called fees" Xu Miao showed a trace of disgust on his face.

"What is a fee" Yuan Xi's face froze.

"The king, it is an invisible charge, such as fights and brawls, when the officials check, there is a tea money, service money, etc., these fees are his main income, and in addition, some local ruffians and hooligans, relying on relationships, can even be a government officer, which leads to the number of government officials in some places is thousands, and they lead the government of each province in vain" Xu Miao said.

"Bastard" Yuan Xi suddenly scolded angrily.

"The king is angry, this is all some poison, but now all the prefectures, counties, and counties of Dayan have strictly controlled this aspect, and it is not as outrageous as the period of the Second Emperor Huan Ling, so these officials are not fundamentally and completely managed, but will lead to a decrease in the country's income, and also make the people afraid of complaining" Xu Miao said with relief.

"Jingshan, could it be that the income you said is this fee," Yuan Xi said solemnly.

"Of course not, the king, if so, it will not be even more intensified, the minister's suggestion is to establish strict laws, such as fighting, theft and robbery, although it is not a major crime, but it is necessary to establish a clear fine system and punishment system, murder and harm people, close shops and shops, all income will be counted by the government officials, handed over to the treasury, as a severe punishment, so that not only let the people know the law, the society is peaceful, but also provide a certain amount of income for the government officials, the pressure on the treasury will be much less, as long as the Great Yan unifies the world, Many policies to enrich the country and strengthen the people can be implemented, and even if there is no such thing, they will be able to keep the officials, and more importantly, such officials will be more motivated, because they have a direction to move forward and a step to advancement."

"And whether it is the number of people, the system, will be managed in a unified manner, rather than with the change of the chief official of a place, in addition, the king has an army of millions, the placement of many soldiers, is also a serious matter, many soldiers are not rich enough, the grass people can completely put them in the part of the service, the first can supplement personnel, the second can be used as a reserve, and the third is not a small amount of resettlement fees" Xu Miao smiled.

"Hahaha" Hearing this, Yuan Xi laughed loudly and praised: "Jingshan Dacai, if you follow your method, maybe it will really work."

"Someone Coming"

"King" Hu Niu'er immediately walked in.

"Jingshan, you immediately return to Yecheng with Sima Yi, the secretary of Dali Temple, meet with Kong Ming, and the three of them negotiate, and ask for a complete and detailed plan to completely distinguish the problem of public security in various places from civil affairs" Yuan Xi said solemnly.

"No!"

"In addition, since there is this plan, the name of the official is not suitable, from today onwards, it will be called tolerance, and you will serve as the first secretary of the tolerance department, called the criminal name Shangshu, as for the rest of you and Kong Ming, Zhong Da will study on his own, and I hope that when Gu goes back, this matter can be settled" Yuan Xi ordered.

"Obey the order" Xu Miao immediately knelt on the ground excitedly.
