Chapter 963 Mutual Investigation of Science and Road (3)
Dealing with Yanguan with Yanguan, this method was still thought up by Princess Yongshou, she was in Beijing, and she often had contact with Jiajing, so she naturally knew that her younger brother had a grudge against Yanguan for a long time. However, the system of the Metropolitan Procuratorate cannot be truly abolished, so we can only try our best to restrict this institution.
She is also a scheming woman, and she thought about this method called Kedao mutual inspection, but this credit was finally given to her sweetheart, and it was proposed by Yang Chengzu. Among the Beijing divisions, there was already a Jingcha for the assessment of officials, and the method that Princess Yongshou came up with was to use six subjects to assess the imperial history in the matter, and to use the imperial history assessment to the middle of the matter.
Although the civil service is seen as a collective, it is actually a large group composed of countless small groups, and the interior is also full of mountains and interest groups. After the Kedao Yanguan fell from the original weapon of the Son of Heaven to the tool of the big man to restrain the imperial power, all the ministers were in the Kedao system and mastered some officials as their own pathfinders or thugs. These people, under the orders of their own mentors, will be used by the leader to attack someone. But the relationship between each other is not harmonious, and it is normal for internal fights to be in full swing often for one reason or another.
Jingcha is completely back-to-back mode, no news from each other, no one dares to guarantee that the other party will not let go of themselves, and the officials of Kedao are all experts in finding mistakes, as long as they check each other, the main energy will be busy with internal friction, and they can't care about involving the emperor again. More importantly, once this kind of mutual inspection is institutionalized, it will also be devastating to damage the mutual trust within the speech and official system.
"Your Majesty can do an experiment and find a hundred eunuchs, in groups of two or two. Place a group of two people in two different houses so that they can't communicate with each other. Each person can write a number from zero to a hundred, and then add the numbers written by two people. If the sum does not exceed one hundred, then they will get the silver taels corresponding to the numbers they have written, fifty taels for fifty taels, and thirty taels for thirty. If it exceeds a hundred, the two of them will not get a penny. According to common sense, it is most advantageous for both to write fifty. But since they have no news with each other, neither of them is sure how much the other party writes, and the safest way is to write a zero by yourself. But in that case, isn't it just cheapening the other party for nothing? Everyone thinks so, no one will lose, so in the end, no one will get the money. This is also the reason for mutual inspection, let them picket and impeach each other, and the entire system of speech and officials will become a mess, and in a short period of time, they will not be able to do anything. ”
"There is another one, the official is not afraid of being beaten, but he pays attention to his reputation, and ruining their reputation is more terrible than asking for their lives. The minister's factory guards will make great efforts to investigate the secrets behind these people, and if they find a problem, they will be exposed in the capital, and when the reputation of these officials stinks on the street, and if they want to be impeached, they will lose their confidence first. Third, you can give military positions to the officials, and if they are too happy, they will be transferred to the Jinyi Guard and be the subordinates of the ministers. ”
In the Ming Dynasty, there were precedents for the phenomenon of changing civilian officials to military positions, but they were all shadow officials. For example, in another time and space, the county commander Shen Lian was reappointed as Jinyiwei because of the impeachment of Yan Song, which actually ruined the future of his life. Although the official has the control of public opinion, his weight is low, and his official rank is only six or seven, if he is changed to four or five grades and transferred to Jinyiwei, it seems that he has been promoted, but in fact he has ruined his life. Using this method to deal with those who are known for their courage to speak up against the top is a bigger blow than killing them.
"These people are all unclean, as long as a few are unlucky, the others will know that they are powerful, smart, and take the initiative to get closer to Long live, everyone is okay with each other. Stupid, it doesn't matter, get him to Jinyiwei, and the ministers will teach them the principles of life. ”
Jiajing's face was happy, and he nodded frequently, "Okay, just do it according to the eldest brother's method, speaking of which, although Yan Song is also a wonderful person, his ability to come up with ideas is far worse than that of the eldest brother." I also asked him this question, but he didn't bother for a long time, and he couldn't say why, it seems that he still doesn't have enough ability. The stick of the Yanguan is really easy to use, as long as they are used by me, in the court, I can deal with whoever I want. Let them know that they know first, and when they promote a group of new people in the future, they still have to give the authority of the officials. That Zhang or something, it's the patrol press who handled military affairs in Zhejiang with his eldest brother, is he very smart? The impeachment chapter on the chain is also just right, neither light nor heavy, and he will be in charge of this procuratorate in the future. There is also that Shen Dongkui, I heard that the eldest brother got along well with him when he was in Henan for disaster relief, so I decided to promote him and transfer him to Beijing as an official, and even that Wang Mou in Guangdong was also used. ”
Wu Tingju, the former governor of Guangdong, had no choice but to let him go to the office because he did not find any conclusive crimes, so as to ensure that the layout of Guangdong would not be destroyed by him. Wang Feng was reappointed as the chief governor of Guangdong, and the next step was to take over the governor of Liangguang and take care of the great seal of Guangdong. In fact, it is an important chess piece to cooperate with Guangdong's maritime trade business and Macao's trade affairs.
As for Shen Dongkui, this old man was originally moved to the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites in time and space, and then in the seventh year of Jiajing, but he didn't expect that because he vigorously assisted Yang Chengzu during the disaster relief in Henan, he tried to promote him several times, and formed this good fate, and his life trajectory also underwent major changes. Jiajing decided to appoint him as the imperial envoy of the left capital of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Palace, preparing to succeed Li Yue.
In addition to changing the leadership, the most important thing is to have a group of scholars to ensure that they are used by the Son of Heaven. The academy opened by Yang Chengzu in Nanjing once touched Leng Feishuang's heart, which was an important event on the emotional road of the two. But what Leng Feishuang didn't know was that even without her, that academy would still exist. The purpose of Yang Chengzu's establishment of that academy was to cultivate a group of obedient scholars for the emperor, which was a real official business.
Although it is a long process from training to actual appointment, Jiajing is still young, and he has a lot of time to wait. These students were specially selected by Yang Ji, most of them were from poor backgrounds, and there were not many clan involvement, if it was not for the imperial court and Yang Ji to give them the opportunity, it would be impossible to study.
They study and are fully sponsored by Yang Ji, and those who perform well are also entitled to bonuses, coupled with strong teachers, it is not too difficult to cultivate some good seedlings. In the future, when the imperial examination is carried out, it will be operated up and down to ensure that most of them can kill the Jinshi Branch, and these people are all branded with a distinct Yang Ji, and the emperor will be handy when they use it.
Jiajing also knows that the transformation of the Yanguan is actually more difficult than the attachment of Jinyiwei, but as long as the transformation is successful, the government and the opposition will not have much power to restrain themselves. As long as the Son of Heaven grasps the impeachment of public opinion, who else in the entire court will dare to go against him?
"Big brother, if you hadn't gone to Anlu to be the guard of honor, I am afraid that I would have been beaten into the palace by the chaotic army, and even if I entered Beijing, I would have to be killed by Yang Tinghe, or I would have defeated him, and a new Zai Fu would come out, and I would not be as cool as I am today. You are my lucky star, as long as you are here, there is nothing that cannot be solved, don't rush back today, accompany me to see the queen mother first, and then our brothers have a few drinks. Seeing that Sister Xue Niang is about to marry into the palace, there are a lot of things, and I want you to praise the painting, you can't hide from this big wedding. ”
What Yang Chengzu thought in his heart was that he stayed and was afraid that what he was discussing was not your wedding, but me, how to face the blame and punishment of the Queen Mother, and hoped that her old man would not force her to marry.
