Ten days passed in a hurry. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info This day is another dynasty, and Lu Chengqi is already sitting on the Daqing Hall for the third time, and he is playing right with the hundred officials. He is becoming more and more proficient in driving and maneuvering.

I only heard him ask: "Hubu Shangshu, can you be there?" ”

Xu Chongguang held the court wat in his hand and replied: "The old minister is here." ”

"I don't know how much money has been collected in the past ten days?" "Your Majesty, a total of five thousand six hundred and twenty-one thousand nine hundred and eighty-seven pieces, as well as three thousand five hundred and sixty-one pieces of calligraphy and painting, porcelain, and jade of all dynasties and dynasties."

Although Lu Chengqi was mentally prepared, he was still startled when he heard this astonishing number, and said for a long time: "Where is the director of the Supervision Department?" ”

Xu Jingchun came out and said: "Weichen is here." ”

"From today onwards, you need to properly investigate the officials of the whole country, and if you find that a corrupt official is secretly hiding stolen money, you don't need to tell him, you can directly take the prison down, report it to me after interrogation, and I will make a decision. If you don't have enough manpower, you must recruit children from good families who are innocent and loyal. ”

"Wechen obeys!" Xu Jingchun got the will and returned to the queue.

Lu Chengqi looked around and said slowly: "Do you still have something important to do?" ”

Located in the back row of the queue, a five-grade petty official came out and said: "Weichen has something to report." ”

Lu Chengqi said: "Quasi-playing." ”

I saw that the five-grade petty official said: "Your Majesty, after Master Yang returned to his hometown, the post of Zaifu is still empty, and Weichen thinks that the court cannot be without a face for a day, and I hope Your Majesty will decide on the candidate as soon as possible." ”

Lu Chengqi sneered in his heart, and said in his heart: "I know that you can't help it, and ask me to set a prime minister, so that there will be another Li Taishi, Wang Taishi...... It's a beautiful idea, but I don't! ”

He immediately said, "I have also considered this matter, but the stakes are so high that I can't decide. Besides, I think that Zaifu has too much power, and even if there is a division of power among the governors, he still has great power, and I am very worried. However, I have a law, and I don't know what the ministers want: I want to set up a cabinet and branch the power of the minister. The cabinet has one chief assistant and the rest are cabinet ministers, a total of 12 people, and the official ranks are all two grades. If you are not talented and outstanding, you will not be allowed to enter the cabinet if you have a gentle temperament. The responsibility of the cabinet is to help me review and approve the folds, divide the priorities into four categories, and deal with the urgent matters; Matters of urgency, after the ticket is drafted, will be sent to me for review. The cabinet and the six ministries, one internal and one external, jointly manage the government and politics, and they don't have to tell me everything. The original Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province were all abolished, and the original officials were merged into the Six Ministries and the Cabinet. If there is a military problem, it will be directly submitted to the military staff, and the military attachés will raise their hands to vote after discussing the results. The results were presented to me for review, and then I was given a talisman to send troops. Can you understand? ”

The civil and military officials seemed to be shocked by Lu Chengqi's series of "reforms", and they did not come back to their senses for a long time. When everyone came back to their senses, many officials couldn't stay still, after all, their leader, Yang Taishi, had already returned to his hometown, and no one was the backbone, so where could he fight the emperor who was in power?

Someone immediately jumped out and said, "Your Majesty, don't! These three provinces and six departments are ancestral systems, and they should not be wasted lightly! ”

When he boarded, many officials echoed and said: "Yes, Your Majesty, please think twice!" ”

Lu Chengqi knew what they were thinking, it was nothing more than a civil and military dispute, and defending the prime minister's power. However, Lu Chengqi has never been a compromising person, he looked at the noisy officials below for a long time, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He slowly took out a pamphlet from his sleeve and said, "Enough, if you quarrel any more, you will go back to my hometown!" In this world, there are a lot of people who want to be an official for me, there are a lot of you missing, and I am too much of you! ”

This sound directly covered the audience, and everyone didn't expect this little emperor to be so courageous, so they immediately choked and couldn't say a word, so they had to give up.

Lu Chengqi grimaced and continued: "Hmph, this is the good thing that you so-called ministers have done!" Wei Ciguang, the bribes you received this spring totaled 350,000 yuan, Sun Qingqi accepted 810,000 yuan, and Huo Wenxi accepted 220,000 yuan......"

Every time Lu Chengqi read a name, those officials lowered their heads, wishing that there was a crack in the ground to get into. The people who shouted the most fiercely just now are now silent, Lu Chengqi sneered: "Do you still need me to continue to read these?" ”

Xu Chongguang came out and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that the cabinet system and the military staff are excellent systems, and if they can be standardized, they will definitely be able to greatly improve the efficiency of the imperial court." ”

Xu Chongguang is Lu Chengqi's confidant, of course he has to jump out to support the little emperor at this moment, and also make some political capital for himself, right? can mix in officialdom until now, Xu Chongguang is definitely not a fool.

Lu Chengqi looked around, and when he saw that no one objected anymore, he said: "This matter has been decided, the Ministry of Officials, we need to sort out a complete set of systems tomorrow, and I will personally see it." The first cabinet and the first assistant were personally designated by the Council, and the place of office was set up in the Wende Palace; The military staff is located in the Zichen Palace. ”

There is now only one Wu Xianzhi left in the Ministry of Officials, and the rest have been taken into prison by the Supervision Department. Fortunately, Wu Xianzhi is also a capable official, and he has promoted many low-level officials, so that the huge ministry will not collapse.

Lu Chengqi asked Wu Xianzhi to temporarily take over the post of secretary of the ministry, but in fact, he waited for him to make achievements before he was corrected. This is one of the skills that Lu Chengqi learned to recruit people's hearts, which also made Wu Xianzhi, who had read the Confucian classics, more loyal.

While the iron was hot, Lu Chengqi continued: "Xu Qing, I want you to set aside one-fifth of the stolen money as an official's pension. In the future, I plan to reform. The income of the Zhongqing family has been halved since then, and it is all charged into the pension. If there is any corruption during the period, the pension is gone, the family property will be confiscated, and the family will be repatriated to their hometown. ”

As soon as this news came out, the audience was in an uproar. The civil and military officials are all talking about it, but who else dares to say one more word after the lessons of the past? Lu Chengqi ignored them and continued: "In the future, civil and military officials will all be equal, and civil officials and second-rank officials will have as many as they are, and military attachés and second-rank officials will have as many as they are!" The pension is increased by 50 per year during the period of your tenure. As long as there is no corruption and bending the law, the pension will be given together after returning to the hometown. If a hundred years later, send it to your family. In the future, all money and silver will prevail, and no more physical goods will be given. All the items, Suer and others to buy their own. The household department counted the previous physical goods as money and silver, and halved them and issued them again. Xu Qing, do you understand? ”

Xu Chongguang hurriedly said: "Lao Chen understands. ”

Lu Chengqi announced the reform of the political system in one day, the reform of the Yulu system, although it cannot absolutely eliminate corrupt officials, but there will be fewer after all, which can be regarded as a rectification for the already corrupt Dashun officialdom, so that they will keep in mind that the current Lu Chengqi is very disgusted with corrupt officials! Whoever dares to stretch out his hand again will be severely punished!
