Li Shimin asked, "How did you come up with it?" ”

"Most of the local officials are from the family, and the new imperial examination you set up is equivalent to breaking with the family. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info I think everyone has torn their faces, then simply tear it to the end, but if you remove the official position of the children of the family for no reason and can't stop the mouth, so I thought about using the assessment, and the content of the assessment can not be the field that the family is good at, focusing on how to enrich the people and other real achievements, the children of the family have a lot of empty talkers, and there are very few down-to-earth things, when the time comes, you will be able to justifiably cut off the branches and leaves of the family, isolate its backbone, so that the people of the world have nothing to say. When I thought that the imperial examination would produce problems such as redundant officials and redundant personnel, I felt that the assessment was also applicable. ”

"Okay!" Li Shimin glanced at Qin Feng unexpectedly and said, "You really came up with a way!" He really didn't expect to get a trick from Qin Feng, but among the people he could trust at the moment, Qin Feng was the only one who knew about this and could discuss it. It's better to try your luck, even if you can't get a satisfactory answer, than to think hard in the bottom of your heart. But I didn't want Qin Feng to do it in the simplest way. I was surprised to help him solve this problem.

Qin Feng said smugly: "What's this, I have a lot of ideas!" ”

Li Shimin's confusion was eliminated in his heart, and he was in a good mood, listening to Qin Feng's boasting, his eyes suddenly turned and he said, "Okay? Speaking out opened my eyes. ”

"Corruption is the biggest headache in all dynasties, killing endlessly, caught, you say yes?" Qin Feng asked

"That's right!" Li Shimin's heart was pounding in his chest, just as Qin Feng said, corruption is the top problem of all dynasties, and it is also an unsolvable problem. And Qin Feng obviously has a way. Therefore, Li Shimin's tiger eyes flashed with fanatical flames.

Qin Feng stretched out his fist and raised his voice: "Recently, I have read some books about official history, wild history, and miscellaneous books, and I have also learned about some cases of corruption. In my opinion, there are three main ways for officials to engage in corruption: the boss shields, borrows money and food to fill the account, and makes false statements. He stretched out a finger with every word he spoke.

"The first move against corrupt officials is to send ministers to clean up the deficit. If you don't send ministers and rely on corrupt criminals to investigate your own corruption, you will never be able to find out; It is also not feasible to rely on the boss of the embezzler, because there is no embezzler who does not befriend his boss and give bribes and gifts to his boss. Even if his boss is incorruptible, he is unreliable. Because if there is a serious deficit in the locality, and corrupt officials are rampant, and they actually do nothing, then there can only be two situations: either the officials are stupid or the mediocre officials, and it is impossible to succeed by relying on these people to check the deficit. ”

"Only by sending a minister can we thoroughly investigate the situation of corrupt officials and corrupt officials. These people, who have no lessons from the past and no worries about the future, are directly under the leadership of the emperor, and will definitely do their best, not to mention that they also want to rely on the investigation of corrupt officials and corrupt officials to invite merit and reward. First of all, they are peerless masters who find faults, and they are sent to investigate local problems thoroughly; Secondly, the Imperial Historical Observatory and the Imperial Counselors are independent of the three provinces and six ministries, which can ensure a certain degree of fairness and justice. In order to prevent them from disposing of good people and good officials with whom they had a holiday because of their private abolition, they were only given the right to picket, collect evidence, and arrest, and if they crossed the line, they would be killed, and all their property would be confiscated and paid to the victims' families. ”

"Wait, what is the Imperial Minister?"

The minister of the Qincha, also referred to as the minister, was a temporary official position in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and during the Tang Dynasty, there was no minister of the Qincha.

The so-called Qin means the emperor, and the Qin mission is the meaning of the emperor to send, so the minister is an official sent by the emperor to handle something. Because it represents the emperor himself, his status is very high. Holding this official position was often a high-ranking official trusted by the emperor, and it was an honor in itself to be able to hold this office. Normally, the official position will be abolished upon reinstatement.

In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the power of the ministers was very great, and the local officials who violated the imperial program could be cut off first and then exerted power. Because of this, Qin Feng limited the power of the ministers in his own proposal.

Listening to Qin Feng's interpretation of the minister, Li Shimin's mind was a little short-circuited.

After sorting it out for a while, he sorted out his thoughts, a trace of realization and excitement flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said: "The arrangement of the minister and his power is very interesting, don't be stunned, continue talking." ”

"You understand the significance of the minister, then, let's talk about the personnel of the minister's entourage: in addition to the minister himself and his assistants, take a group of idle officials who have positions arranged by the imperial court to investigate, find out a corrupt official, immediately dismiss him on the spot, and select an official at the same level from the idle officials accompanying him to take over."

"Wonderful! Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Li Shimin said five "wonderful" words in one breath, and said gratefully: "Protecting officials and officials is a stubborn disease of officialdom. Successive successors have always helped their predecessors fill the holes, and then left a large deficit for their successors to make up for it, and the reason why the deficit cannot always be made up is one of the reasons. But if you do it like this, it will be different, the person who took office later is here to check the accounts, and the person who audits the accounts will naturally not play a round and cover for him for the sake of his own future. In this way, this corrupt official will have nowhere to run but bow his head and admit his guilt and accept punishment. Moreover, the person who checks the accounts also knows how he got his official position, so he can only work diligently, and dare not be corrupt, because no one knows when the minister will find out about his head. ”

"The second trick of corrupt officials in dealing with the inspection is to borrow money and food to fill the shortfall. When the boss came to check the accounts, he borrowed some money and grain from the local rich family and put it in the treasury. The people above looked at it and saw a lot of money. As soon as the inspectors left, the money and food were returned. Because it is an official loan, not only is the interest rate high, but they are not afraid of not repaying it, and the rich do not want to offend the magistrates, so this method is also repeatedly used by corrupt officials. In response to this trick, you have a completely customized law, that is, no one can lend money or food to the government. If you want to borrow it, you can also borrow it, once the money and grain are lent, it belongs to the government and belongs to the state, and the borrowed money and grain should not be recovered. This time, no one is willing to lend money and food to corrupt officials. Without the support of the wealthy, corrupt officials naturally have nowhere to hide.

In response to false statements by corrupt officials, you can set up an independent verification and auditing body, whose task is to audit and verify the money and food sold by officials at all levels. From then on, all localities had to pass the examination and approval of the money, grain, and funds used to pay taxes or reimburse expenses, and in the end, no one could do anything. ”

"The above is enough to cut off the occurrence of corruption, as for the corrupt officials that have been produced, the solution is to take three steps: first remove the official, then make a claim, and three raids."

"Dismissal of the official first: that is, after the shortfall is discovered, immediately suspend all official positions, and order the official to make up for it within the time limit. A dismissed official can no longer prey on the people, they can only pay out of their own pockets to fill the shortfall, so that some officials who can't afford to pay back the money appear, in this regard, the way is to raid the house, only to chase the corrupt official to the end of the water, so that his descendants can also be poor, in order to achieve the goal of warning the world and warning future generations. ”

"Hey, hey! When these tricks are applied to officialdom one by one, corrupt officials have only one way to go, and that is a dead end! For in addition to the indemnity treasury, there are all kinds of laws waiting for him. My advice to these people is to leave no end in sight. Some people know that their sins are extremely heinous and they cannot protect themselves, so they want to deny it once they die, and use death to keep their property so that future generations can enjoy it, which is absolutely unacceptable. ”

In the end, Qin Feng smiled and said, "You say, come like this!" What will the world be like? ”

Li Shimin deeply shocked Qin Feng, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, and suddenly burst out laughing: "In this way, there will be no officials in the world, and no officials will dare to be greedy!" Come on, invite Fang and Du Erxiang to me, hurry up! ”

"See Your Majesty!"

It didn't take long for Fang Mou to arrive at the palace with a hefty breath.

"Xuan Ling, Keming, sit and sit!" Li Shimin couldn't hide his excitement and brought Qin Feng's words one by one, and Qin Feng added on the side where they were inappropriate, and the two of them sang and drank, completely restoring this set of governance methods that led to "Yongzheng Dynasty has no officials and is not clear".

"It's a great idea"

Fang Xuanling took a step forward and said excitedly: "Your Majesty, the several strategies offered by General Qin to govern officials are all the works of heaven and man, and the minister suggests that the law should be formed immediately and the edict will be issued to the world!" ”

Du Ruhui was also excited, with his intelligence, it is not difficult to judge that this strategy is indeed feasible, he seems to have seen the prospect of the entire Tang Dynasty being honest and honest for the people.

"Your Majesty, General Qin is a genius of governing officials, and his level and vision are long-term and unique, even if he is a secretary of the ministry, he is also a difficult opponent, and the minister advises General Qin to abandon military force and follow literature, and also suggests that His Majesty hand over the officials to General Qin." Du Ruhui's eyes lit up, and his saliva almost stayed, with Qin Feng's level, if he entered the Ministry of Officials, he and Fang Xuanling, the actual leader of Shangshu Province, would be extremely relaxed.

Li Shimin looked at Qin Feng with a moved expression.

Compared with the military, Qin Feng has shown too many amazing strategies in literature and governance.

"No, no! I'm just a big mouth, but I can't do these complicated things, the army is simple, and it suits my temperament. Qin Feng was taken aback, if he was transferred to the civil service, he would have to let the complicated government affairs make his head bleed, and his reputation would be in vain.

Fang Xuanling felt that Qin Feng was more developed in literary affairs, and he could solve the problems of the ages at a young age, if he cultivated it well, he would be the pillar of the Tang Dynasty in the future, and he also heard that Qin Feng was reluctant to develop in the way of government affairs, but he loved talents and induced Qin Feng: "Why do you have to join the army, now that the world has been decided, it is the time when a hundred wastes are waiting to be revived, and learning literature can better assist Your Majesty and govern the world, isn't it better to realize the ambitions in your heart?" ”

Qin Feng still shook his head resolutely, "The Turks have not been destroyed, the Western Regions have not been taken, and the Northeast has not been restored, how dare Fang Xiang say that the world has been decided?" My ambition is to be a centurion rather than a scholar. The husband can't win the ambition, and please don't persuade Your Majesty and the prime minister! ”

Fang Xuanling was stunned, for a long time, he sighed! (To be continued.) )
