"What an eventful time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Dong Wencong said.

Fang Yun said: "Do you remember the punishment of the Torture Palace?"

"Remember, for the sake of the "Minbao", you fought against the Torture Palace, and the Torture Hall punished you for going to an ancient place to open up territory for the human race before you became a great Confucian. Other than that, the rest of the punishments are insignificant, could it be ......" Dong Wencong looked at Fang Yun in surprise.

"Yan Ningshan, the head of the Yan family, sent me a book, saying that the changes in the Ten Cold Ancient Lands are very likely to be the precursors of the birth and destruction of the Ancient Lands. As you know, the Ten Cold Ancient Lands will change every three hundred years or so, and the Ancient Lands will be destroyed and reborn, which is called the Ten Cold Births and Destructions. When the Ten Colds are born and destroyed, the Ten Colds Ancient Lands will re-compete for the Ten Colds Monarch and gain the power of the Ice Emperor. The Yan family wants me to go to the Ten Cold Ancient Lands and fight for a Ten Cold King for the human race. You don't need to rank too high, as long as you can compete for the tenth Hanjun. ”

Dong Wencong was surprised: "The Yan family has controlled the Ninth Han Monarch for so long, and they are not sure about the next generation of the Ten Han Monarchs?"

A strange color flashed in Fang Yun's eyes, and he said, "The Yan family originally had two candidates for scholars, both of whom were great Confucian talents, but for the Ten Han Monarchs to suppress the realm for many years, they always stayed at the peak scholar stage. With these two people here, the Yan family was originally foolproof. But...... In recent years, Wenqu Xing has been constantly changing, resulting in both of them unable to suppress the traction of the great power of the Holy Dao, and they have been promoted to Confucianism. The Yan family originally pinned their hopes on Yan Yukong, but now that the ancient land is changing, it will be born and destroyed in a short period of time, and there is not so much time for Yan Yukong to grow. ”

"Then the Yan family can find ...... No, the Yan family really can't find a half-saint family, the half-saint family is either not strong enough, or the relationship with the Yan family is not close. The Yan family is also a sub-saint family, and it is not easy to find the rest of the sub-saint families. It seems that the Yan family can only look for you or the Kong family now. Dong Wencong said.

Fang Yun shook his head lightly and said, "You don't know, the Kong family has a family rule, if you don't go to compete with the Yasheng family for the Ten Cold Ancient Land, you can do things there, but you can't fight for the Ten Han King." It can even be said that the Kong family doesn't care which family of the human race is the king of the Ten Colds, they only need one. ”

Dong Wencong said: "Then the lower official understands, the Yan family knows that it is difficult to win the Ten Han Monarchs again, but they have huge power and secrets, so they want to find a collaborator." You have the strength to compete for the Ten Cold Kings, but you don't have the strength and heritage to control a cold city, and your reputation has always been good, and you have not committed any crimes, as long as you negotiate the terms, you will definitely fulfill them. The point is, you have a deep friendship with Yan Yukong. ”

That's pretty much what it means. Fang Yundao.

"I don't know much about the birth and death of the ancient land, but I've heard that it takes a long time, at least a few months or even a year. If you are not in Xiangzhou, who will be in charge of the overall situation?" Dong Wencong worried.

"So before leaving, I want to stabilize Xiangzhou and sweep away all the factors of instability. Fang Yundao.

"Then your first step is ......," Dong Wencong asked tentatively.

"Purge the officials. Fang Yundao.

Dong Wencong nodded and said, "No wonder you arrested all the Xiangzhou Qingguan at the Yueyang Lou Cultural Conference, so that half of the rule of officials will be completed." But...... Those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety, and next, I am afraid that it will be difficult. ”

"Yes and no. Fang Yundao.

Dong Wencong immediately said respectfully: "Please make it clear." ”

"It's hard to purge officials, but as long as you solve a few problems, it's a smooth road. The first is that there is enough power, and there is no counterweight to it, which I do not lack. In the past dynasties, more than half of the officials were purged because they did not have enough power, and even made jokes that the government decree did not leave the cabinet. ”

Dong Wencong nodded lightly, Jingguo had that kind of leftist minister a hundred years ago, and after the government order left the cabinet, no one obeyed it at all. Although there are various reasons, it also shows that the left minister is not suitable for governing the country.

Fang Yun continued: "The second point is to cut off the stakeholders. It can be said that ninety percent of Zaifu ultimately failed to complete his own government reform or change because he could not cut off his own interests. Think about it, how can a certain Zaifu act resolutely and resolutely if his buttocks are not clean? How can he convince the public if he has too many selfish desires, such as colluding with certain high-ranking officials and having other plans? ”

"That's what my lord said. Dong Wencong said.

"The third point is the control of the lower-level officials, the loss of control of the head of a country over the low-level officials, which abounds in history, even if the power is greater, if you can't control the officials who really come into contact with the people, the purge of officials is ultimately just empty talk. In addition, there are many factors, such as timing, such as internal and external troubles, such as the specific means of governance, such as the people's will, and so on. ”

Dong Wencong said: "After this Yueyang Lou Wen Meeting, your popularity in Xiangzhou has ...... To put it mildly, you are more than the king of a country, so there is no problem with your power. You are from other places, and you have nothing to do with the local forces in Xiangzhou, and you are dedicated to being a human race, even if you have your own selfish intentions, you will not affect the rectification of the officials. What you lack is control over the lower ranks. ”

Fang Yun sighed lightly and said, "Since ancient times, no one has ever been able to completely control the lower-level officials, even when the saints were officials. All I can do, without it, do my best. ”

Dong Wencong looked at Fang Yun and said with a smile: "Then the lower official will be relieved." ”

After the bookcase, Fang Yun put the brush on the pen stand and looked at Dong Wencong with a smile.

Dong Wencong explained: "You shined in Ning'an County back then, and you can be called the first county order of the human race in ancient times, you don't have to be modest, even when Confucius was the head of the Central Capital, he was far inferior to you, let alone others." With this impressive resume, I thought that after you were promoted to the governor of the two states, you would think that you would be able to control it as easily as you did in Ning'an County. And not only are you not blindly arrogant, not only do you realize the importance of lower-level officials, but you even know very well that no one can solve this eternal problem, and you will inevitably become a qualified governor, so the lower officials are relieved. ”

"What should I do when I encounter a subordinate like you who thinks Shangguan is incompetent?" Fang Yun half-jokingly.

Dong Wencong said: "With Mount Tai to surpass the North Sea, honesty can't be." It is easy for you to carry a grain of dust over the North Sea, but if you carry all the dust in Xiangzhou over the North Sea, this is the same as carrying Mount Tai to the North Sea, which is the same thing that cannot be done. You know very well that the rule of officials is difficult, which means that you will not be attacked by the low-level officials, and the lower officials must do their best to assist. ”

Fang Yun nodded lightly and said: "The first step in purging the rule of officials is to start with the corruption that the people hate the most, this official wants you to work with the legal department and the criminal department to collect the corruption evidence of the Qing officials above the seventh grade as quickly as possible, and publish it to the public one after another, without the slightest mistake, you can do it?"

"Please rest assured, the lower officials will go all out, if nothing happens, come and see you!" Dong Wencong's expression was resolute and his eyes were focused.

"Great, remember to report the details every day. Fang Yun was very satisfied with Dong Wencong's attitude, and it was obvious that Dong Wencong knew how important the first step was to rectify the rule of officials.
