Chapter 972: The brothers of the Zong family are willing to be transparent officials

"From now on, I only have the right to know after the ICAC case is concluded, and I will no longer have the right to directly manage and dispose of it. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" pulled Yang Shi and sent him back to the court, Liu Xing said when he turned around and walked back to the imperial step.

As soon as he walked up the imperial stairs as he spoke, Liu Xing turned around and glanced at the hall, and continued to say in a loud voice: "The ICAC, the Supreme Court, and the Procuratorate have independently exercised their functions and powers since then, and everything starts with me." The independence of legal power cannot be just an empty phrase, and once it has established its rules, it must strictly abide by its systems. Whoever dares to violate this regulation will be severely punished according to the law. ”

At this point, Liu Xing turned his head sideways and glanced at Ma Kuo.

With a pair of eyes, Ma Kuo comprehended, and immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly outside the hall: "Xuanlu Benzhong, Hou Zhongliang, and Zong Xin enter the hall." ”

"Coax ......"

In the shout of Ma Kuo, three people, two old and one young, wearing brand-new official uniforms, walked like flying from outside the hall and entered the hall. After seeing the three people, there was a whisper of surprise in the hall.

In that burst of whispering, Ma Kuo glanced coldly at the ministers in the hall, and then loudly preached again: "Chen Guoting, the former director of the General Administration of Integrity, is suspicious and fruitless in handling the case, so he is dismissed from the post of director and sentenced to another office. Zong Xin, the current Chief Inspector of the Military Intelligence Department of the Royal Force Headquarters, is the Director General of the ICAC and confers on him the rank of Cabinet Counselor. From today onwards, the Director of the ICAC will not be allowed to enter the court. ”

"Coax ......"

Hearing this, there was another uproar in the main hall.

In the second wave of uproar, a person from the civil official came out of the class, bowed to the senior ranks, and said: "Prime Minister, Deputy Prime Minister, dare to ask Chen Guoting, but what kind of mistake did he make?" But which case was wrong? Why do you want to replace him with Taifu's retainers, his subordinates are unknown, and he hopes to confess by a simile. ”

I just went to Yang Shi, and some people raised objections to the in-depth reform of the cabinet after Liu Xingfu Ma Kuo officially took office, who is this person? Why did he stand up for Chen Guoting's reassignment?

Hearing the man's voice, Liu Xing, who had just sat on the big chair, knew who he was.

With a faint smile, without waiting for Ma Kuo to speak, Liu Xing spoke first: "Zhu Zhenna, I know that you have worked with you to handle many cases with Chen Guoting on weekdays, and you two have a very close personal relationship, and you also cherish each other's talents. However, you only saw Chen Guoting's talent, but you didn't see him clear his temperament, right? ”

Between the words, Liu Xing looked at the upper echelons and continued with a smile: "He has become indecisive over time, and he has become more and more sophisticated in human affairs. A person who has lost his former iron backbone, you can be friends with him, I can be brothers with him, but he doesn't do honest things. ”

Familiar with human feelings, he has become indecisive over time. When Liu Xing's evaluation came out, Zhu Zhen, who was at the top of the ranks, did not speak immediately.

He lowered his head and secretly recalled Chen Guoting's performance when he joined forces with him to investigate some cases of corrupt officials recently, and quickly understood that it was not Liu Xing who deliberately wanted to support his retainers to take the position, but in fact, Chen Guoting, as Liu Xing said, became more and more proficient in accidents, and became less ruthless when he first became the director of the ICAC.

"Since Chen Guoting's temperament has become no longer suitable to be the chief official of the ICAC, there are many talents in the ICAC, why doesn't Taifu choose someone to replace him, and he must hook up Zong Erlang to replace him?"

Although he knew that it was Chen Guoting's changes that made Liu Xing make this decision, Zhu Zhen still didn't understand it, and asked again after thinking about it.

Hearing this, Liu Xing stopped speaking and cast a look at Ma Kuo again.

Ma Kuo immediately stepped forward again, and Zhengse said to Zhu Zhen: "There are three reasons, one is that there are many young talents in the ICAC, and there is a lack of experienced people, and no one can be worthy of the important position of director. Second, because the ICAC has many secretarial affairs, Zong Xin's ability to conduct secret investigations and secret visits is far better than those young talents of the ICAC. Third, after the independence of legal power, in order to form a system of mutual supervision between the ICAC and the Military Intelligence Department, only Zong Xin was the most competent to perform his post. ”

After receiving Ma Kuo's reply, Zhu Zhen still did not give up and asked again: "According to the law, fathers, sons, and brothers are not allowed to be in the same dynasty." In the future, if Zong Ying comes to Beijing from Zhejiang, wouldn't it be a violation, and how should he deal with it? ”

Zhu Zhen's words are very reasonable, Zong Ying is now the governor of Zhejiang and a dignified second-class official.

After all, the senior generals of the Royal Army Headquarters are also "non-proclaiming", and they will not enter the Daqing Hall to participate in the court meeting without particularly important things. If Zong Xin has only been holding a military position, he cannot be regarded as a brother in the same dynasty.

However, now that Zong Xin has officially changed from a military general to a civilian official of the General Administration of Corruption, even if the ICAC will be "non-declared and not allowed to enter the DPRK" in the future, there will still be too many overlaps with his brother in official positions, and it is naturally difficult to avoid the situation of brothers and North Korea one day in the future......

Knowing that his words are reasonable and asking questions is the key, Ma Kuo replied with a straight face: "Transferred to the ICAC, Zong Erlang asked for his family letter to be supervised by the Ministry of Military Intelligence." At the same time, the two brothers also requested and reported all their family wealth to the Ministry of Officials, and accepted the supervision of the Ministry of Officials, Legal Affairs, Military Affairs, and the Procuratorate at any time. ”

Halfway through the sentence, Ma Kuo glanced at the ministers in the palace again, and continued: "The two brothers of the clan want to be transparent officials, and their mana is nothing more than human affection, and naturally they can also be exceptionally outside the rules of the brothers. If any of you are willing to be such a transparent official, the Taifu will not allow it, and I will fight for it to be exempt from this constraint. ”

"Coax ......"

As soon as Ma Kuo's words came out, there was an uproar in the main hall, and then it turned into a burst of whispering.

Why did the ministers go into an uproar again? That's because not revealing one's wealth is one of the basic creeds that most people in the Central Plains and everyone who enters the court and becomes an official adhere to.

The brothers of this family actually had to report all their property to the Ministry of Officials, and accept the supervision of various ministries and departments at any time. In order to be an official, revealing his family background unreservedly is something that no one in the palace wants to do.

For the ministers above the court, such a move is incomprehensible and impossible to follow. Because they are not willing to be in the same dynasty for their fathers and sons, and brothers in the same palace, all their own property will be known by Liu Xing at any time.

Why don't they want their property to be known by Liu Xing? The reason is actually very simple: who doesn't know that Mrs. Liu's favorite thing to do is to borrow money from the people of the world to achieve the solid treasury of the Great Song Dynasty today! If this is how much money he has in his own house, Mrs. Liu can grasp it at any time, and when Mrs. Liu wants to borrow money from them, will they borrow it or not......

Hearing the whispers and discussions of the courtiers, in the end, all of them focused on Liu Xingai's borrowing money to do business for the court, Liu Xing was not angry, but looked at Ma Kuo and smiled, and a sinister smile flashed on their faces at the same time. (To be continued.) )
