Chapter 235: The Inspectorate Storm

Song Guan, who was in Shanghai, heard news from Nanjing a few days ago, saying that the Beijing Division Patrol Police Department in Nanjing had made a big move, and within two days it had arrested several officials of the Supervision Yuan who had embezzled and accepted bribes, which caused a small shock in the officialdom of Nanjing.

There was a lot of discussion for a while!

And within two days, Shen Jingshan, the president of the Inspectorate, wrote a book, saying that he was old and sick, and begged for bones!

Hearing the news, Song Guanqian couldn't help but sneer, this Shen Jingshan did a good show, this Shen Jingshan is not yet fifty years old this year, for senior officials, it is in the prime of life, the peak of life, and I haven't heard that he is not in good health on weekdays, at this time, under the pretext of being old and sick, please beg for bones, this is not clear to say that this request is a formality.

Sure enough, the next day, Song Guanqian heard the news from Nanjing, the Son of Heaven dismissed Shen Jingshan's beggar bones, and personally summoned Shen Jingshan, saying that at a critical juncture in imperial politics, it was necessary for the ministers to work together to build the great cause of China for a thousand years.

Of course, this is just some superficial words that Song Guanqian heard, but except for Shen Jingshan himself, others didn't know that when Lin Zhe summoned him, he called him into the office and cooled him for half an hour, and Lin Zhe kept reviewing the documents by himself for half an hour, letting Shen Jingshan stand there alone, Lin Zhe didn't speak, he didn't even dare to sit, let alone drink tea.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Lin Zhe raised his head. There was no angry expression on his face, but he said with an apologetic expression: "There are too many documents." I didn't keep the time for a while! ”

"Come, sit down here. Hangzhou just sent a batch of new tea, I think the taste is acceptable, you can also taste it today! ”

Next, the two of them chatted a few words as if they were nothing, and in the end, Lin Zhe said casually: "At least I have received a lot of excerpts to impeach your inspectorate!" ”

Shen Jingshan was in great panic at that time, and immediately left the sofa, then knelt down, and said: "The ministers are not strict, so that there is such a big mistake, and the ministers deserve death!" ”

Lin Zhe glanced at this Shen Jingshan. He didn't speak for a long time, but took another sip of tea, and then casually took out Shen Jingshan's Zhishi fold and put it on the table.

"Take this and go back"

Shen Jingshan got up at this time, and then took the fold on the table and retreated!

After leaving Lin Zhe's office, Shen Jingshan found that his back was already full of cold sweat, he was also an old man who followed Lin Zhe, when he was in the business zone, he was the deputy director of the judicial department, although he was nervous when he faced Lin Zhe a few years ago, but it would definitely not be the same as now. Just seeing each other makes you scared.

The Son of Heaven inside is becoming more and more incomprehensible, and at the same time, it is becoming more and more awe-inspiring!

At the beginning, there were many officials in the Inspectorate who were corrupt, and then it caused a discussion in the cabinet, and he knew that this matter was definitely not just the corruption of a few inspectors on the surface. But there is a deeper reason, and someone must be secretly pushing it inside.

has been in this officialdom for many years, and he immediately sniffed out the hidden crisis inside. A crisis that could end his career and even put him in jail.

And a little check. He just knew that in the recent period, there have been dozens of people who have impeached his inspectorate. And most of them are middle and high-level officials in the empire, including Song Guanqian, the co-director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Xue Huan, the governor of Jiangsu, who are the top high-ranking officials in the empire, and some middle-level officials are also impeached.

After learning of these situations, Shen Jingshan actively cooperated with the investigation of the Ministry of Justice and the Patrol Police Department to reduce public opinion, and at the same time did a good job of self-examination internally, dealt with or hid some problems in advance, and did a good job of protection, and the most important thing was to write to the public.

It is not because he is really old and sick that he can't do anything, nor is it that he and those cabinet elders and high-ranking officials in the Ming and Qing dynasties were impeached and asked for Zhishi to show their integrity or innocence.

He also used the reason of being old and sick to make Lin Zhe feel that he was the first group of people to follow Lin Zhe, and he had worked hard for many years, trying to arouse a trace of compassion from Lin Zhe.

And I have to say that his strategy was successful, although Lin Zhe didn't say anything to him for more than half an hour before and after meeting Lin Zhe this time, and he was even more cold to him for half an hour, but in the end, Lin Zhe asked him to take back the fold of the request for Zhishi.

These all represent Lin Zhe's attitude!

The meaning here is: I am already very dissatisfied with the recent situation of the Inspectorate, but in the case of being a meritorious old man, I will be fined one or two today, and you will atone for my sins when you go back, and do the work of the Inspectorate well!

If Lin Zhe was really dissatisfied with him, it was estimated that he would not see him, and he would just approve his Zhishi, and since he saw him, he was cold for half an hour.

This means that Shen Jingshan has already passed a big difficulty, and the next thing he has to do is to solve the problems that arise one by one, such as the self-examination of the Inspectorate, and in the most dissatisfied grassroots officials, the Inspectorate must come up with a practical and effective measure to make results, so that Shen Jingshan can be regarded as a successful solution to this matter.

After this out of Pingrentang, Shen Jingshan was thinking about carrying out self-examination and rectifying the governance of grassroots officials in this way, but on the other hand, he was also thinking about it, he couldn't let the people in the cabinet continue to make trouble, and he had to find a way to communicate with the bigwigs in the cabinet.

Immediately afterwards, Shen Jingshan privately met with Premier Bi Yutong and several other ministers, and after communicating and promised, he finally made these bigwigs agree to come down, and he would order the ordinary officials below not to continue to make trouble.

The Son of Heaven has every opportunity, and every move is related to the foundation of the empire for thousands of years, so don't write an impeachment excerpt every day to Pingrentang for some small things!

Bi Yutong looked at this Shen Jingshan and lowered his head to himself, and he also showed a smile on his face!

This Shen Jingshan usually relies on his own inspectorate to be an independent institution outside the cabinet, and the inspectorate is responsible for the task of inspecting hundreds of officials, so his tail is up to the sky on weekdays. When he saw that he didn't even perform a salute, he didn't let him suffer a little. He, Shen Jingshan, really thought that he could be on an equal footing with him, the prime minister.

Although the empire is separated from the military, executive, and judicial powers, except for the military. No matter what you say in the civil service system, he Bi Yutong is the first person and the first of the hundred officials.

Although the action of impeaching the Inspectorate this time was caused by Song Guanqian and Xue Huan, without Bi Yutong's acquiescence and even promotion, it would have been impossible for the cabinet to form such a big trend in a short period of time, so that many impeachment excerpts were presented in a short period of time.

Watching the dejected Shen Jingshan leave, Bi Yutong was in a good mood. But after thinking about this incident, he also sighed a little!

This time the Inspectorate incident, it seems that Song Guanqian and Xue Huan induced it, and in the middle it was promoted by himself, and in the end, it was Lin Zhe, the son of heaven, who cleaned up the mess.

But if you think about it, in fact, Bi Yutong is not the main promoter, Lin Zhe, the son of heaven, is the real promoter behind it!

Why?

It's very simple, when Lin Zhe gave instructions on Song Guanqian's impeachment of the Inspectorate, the instructions were these five words: Transfer to the Inspectorate

It was this instruction that came out. Other officials who were dissatisfied with the Inspectorate on weekdays, or who were dissatisfied with Shen Jingshan, immediately showed their fangs as if they had seen flesh and blood, and they wrote to impeach one after another.

And Bi Yutong's promotion. In fact, it's just figuring out the Sacred Heart and then pushing the boat!

It's just that these things are known only to a few core players, and at the same time people with a very sensitive sense of political smell.

For example, Bi Yutong is the promoter. Another example is Shen Jingshan!

threw away his face, and gave Bi Yutong a low voice before settling the cabinet. Shen Jingshan immediately conducted a large-scale self-inspection of the Inspectorate.

On the one hand, he wants to give an explanation to the Son of Heaven and the cabinet officials. On the other hand, Shen Jingshan also itched the teeth of those black sheep.

This is not him Shen Jingshan, who is greedy and perverts the law, he Shen Jingshan, as the president of the Inspectorate, has a status that is half a pole higher than that of ordinary ministers, but Bi Yutong, the head of the hundred officials, is slightly inferior, but the independence of the Inspectorate, his boss is not Bi Yutong, the prime minister, but the Son of Heaven, and it is actually barely reasonable to say that he is above 10,000 people and 10,000 people.

This kind of status and status, this food and drink are directly supplied by the state treasury, even the carriage that goes out is accompanied by the official family, and the house he lives in is also directly rewarded by the Son of Heaven, plus his income in all aspects is also a lot, and he wants to win a title, and when he is the founder of the country, he will go to corrupt tens of thousands of small money.

If he said hundreds of thousands of millions, he would be tempted, but such a large amount is not easy to be greedy, and if he takes it today, he will be dismissed and imprisoned at night.

This is also a common situation for high-ranking military and political dignitaries in the empire, that is, they are very well paid, and this small money is not worth it, and the big money is too conspicuous, hundreds of thousands of millions of dollars, you are really an agent of the Intelligence Department of the Palace Affairs Department is a waste!

Senior officials like Shen Jingshan often care about their political achievements, and what they want is to be a marquis and a prince, and the family's century-old wealth.

However, there is less corruption among senior officials, but corruption among middle and lower-level officials and civil servants at the most basic level is very common, Shen Jingshan himself is not greedy, but other officials in the Inspectorate will be greedy.

And what made Shen Jingshan angry was not their corrupt behavior, but because their corrupt behavior affected him!

Shen Jingshan did not have the slightest politeness towards these people, and in a short period of self-inspection, he investigated and dealt with more than 20 officials of the middle and lower-level inspectorates.

Immediately after that, the Inspectorate sent inspection teams to inspect the local inspection offices and inspection bureaus of various provinces and prefectures, and strictly investigated and dealt with some people who were corrupt and perverted the law or those who were derelict in their duties, and launched the largest rectification of officials since the founding of the Chinese Empire.

Although this time, although the rectification of officials was only limited to the internal inspection of the Inspectorate, more than 100 officials were still investigated and prosecuted, among which the two directors of the Inspectorate were implicated and demoted to the local government.

But people outside didn't know that after Shen Jingshan conducted a large-scale self-inspection of the Inspectorate, he had secretly started to carry out a large-scale rectification of other official systems!

In Pingren Hall, Shen Jingshan stood respectfully: "A preliminary plan drawn up by the ministers this time intends to use Zhenjiang as a pilot to carry out a large-scale investigation of the officials in various provinces, if the effect in Zhenjiang is okay, then the next step will be to carry out a large-scale rectification of the officials in the business zone, Suzhou, Hangzhou, and Jingshi at the same time!" ”

I'm afraid that the impeachment of Shen Jingshan before was not strict, and the atmosphere of the Inspectorate was corrupt, and the officials who were seriously derelict in their duties would not have thought that while Shen Jingshan stabbed himself fiercely, he turned around and set off a rectification of the officials, and aimed the knife pulled out of his body at these officials!
