Chapter 82: The Danger of Kaodi

For more than 210 years since the founding of the country, the examination work was first proposed by Taizu Shangguan Fu, and after several generations of emperors have been perfected and updated, a system of examination and supervision has been formed. In addition to the supervision of imperial history, the most important of them is the "mutual declaration" system.

The so-called mutual application is that officials supervise each other, and Dayong stipulates that if officials find that other officials have violated the law, they can tell the supervision of the imperial history in secret letters, and the imperial history platform has set up confidential messengers and confidential mailboxes in all provinces, states and counties to transmit the secret letters of officials.

This was originally an excellent system, but over the past 210 years or so, the system of "mutual application" has changed from being fruitful at the beginning to a virtual reality today, and the mutual supervision of officials and officials has become the protection of officials and officials, and the secret envoys and secret boxes set up by the Imperial Historical Observatory have no use at all, and even many remote counties have even removed the secret boxes.

Therefore, it is very difficult for the Department of Examination and Merit to inspect and supervise officials outside Beijing, and it is easy for loopholes to appear, and it can only be determined according to the administrative records of the merit examination order and the general public sentiment of the visit, and Gu Zicheng's problem appears here.

In the previous life, in the fixed examination of the Gong Division, Gu Zicheng rated Zou Jingqing, the county commander of Hexian County, Guizhou County, Xining Dao, as the upper middle school, and the evaluation language was also written according to Zou Jingqing's governance records, and there were many words of affirmation and praise. As a result, at the end of the year, the people of Ariga County came all the way to Jingzhao, and at the end of the year, when Emperor Changtai routinely visited the Huguo Temple, he risked his death to sue the emperor, accusing that Zou Jing of murdering the official, and the common people, accusing Zhang Kairu, the assassin of Guizhou, of covering up dereliction of duty, and defending the officials.

The people of He County will tell the grievances to Emperor Changtai, it turns out that Zou Jingqing is a heinous criminal, he bought a murderer to kill the former He County Commander Li Jinyu's family, and he competed with him for the county order of the former He County Governor Shi Fu Hao's family killed, not only that, but also by virtue of the power of the county order, in He County to search for the people's fat and people's ointment, the Zou family is rampant, colluding with the local bandits, the people dare to resist, is to enter the house and wreak havoc, kidnapping people and setting fires, is already the biggest scourge in He County, the people are frightened and miserable every day, in October, Zou Jingqing ordered the people of the county to pay the annual tax, and this life really couldn't go on, so in desperation, he risked his death to sue the emperor.

Emperor Changtai was shocked and angry, there would be such a thing, and quickly sent Jin Wuwei soldiers and Yushitai officials to Xining Road to investigate, and the people's complaints were true.

As soon as Zou Jingqing's matter came out, Emperor Changtai's will to deal with it was quickly issued: Xining Dao observed He Kedao and transferred him out of supervision, Xigui assassin Shi Zhang Kairu covered up his resignation and went to prison, Zou Jingqing was dismissed and executed, his family property was confiscated, and the Zou family was imprisoned for his crimes, Gu Zicheng was imprisoned for dereliction of duty, Shen Zejing was punished for negligence, and ordered: The examination course was redetermined.

At this point, the matter is not over, and when the examination course was revised, it was still found that there were also similar things like Zou Jingqing in Henan and Hubei. There were so many big problems in the examination class of Xu Youyuan, the secretary of the ministry, and Gong Ruxi, the abbot of the imperial history, and Emperor Changtai was furious and held the examination department responsible.

Shen Zejing was demoted to three ranks, demoted to Nanling County, and Ling Yungao, Qin Che, Tang Gunan, etc., the directors of the Examination Division, were also demoted or demoted, Xu Youyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, and Gong Ruxi, the imperial historian, were punished for three years for negligence in office, and many officials of the Ministry of Officials and the Imperial History Observatory were also involved, among which Cen Xiaobai and Shen Jinghua of the Ministry of Officials were not allowed to be promoted for three years, and Yang Jianrui and others in the Imperial History were also punished in the same way; At the same time, the relevant officials of Hanoi Province were also held responsible, and the Hanoi Provincial Observation made Wei Liangcha transferred, and the Henan Assassin Shi and Hubei Assassin Shi were imprisoned, and this matter also involved many local county orders and long histories, from top to bottom, many officials were held accountable and punished, which had a great impact.

This is what later history called the "Jingqing Case", which occurred in the 36th year of Changtai and occurred during the period when Shen Zejing was appointed to perform the examination.

After the reformulation of the examination course in the previous life, Shen Zejing was demoted to Nanling, and it was not until the thirty-eighth year of Changtai that Shen Zejing made the miraculous merit of the Pingshao Rebellion with the body of the Qipin County Order, and the official was reinstated, and the Shen family returned to Jingzhao officialdom, and then Shen Ning and the five princes ruled the Changzhi family, Shen Huashan presented the "Eight Strategies of Chengping", and finally the Shen family was destroyed.

This is the danger of the exam that Shen Ning remembers, and the reason why the causes and consequences can be remembered is because this matter has a huge impact on the Shen family, and even Shen Ning knows it clearly in the boudoir.

However, in this life, the "case of the classics" will not happen, Shen Ning thought to himself, and smiled slightly. Since Shen Zejing was appointed as the Gong Shi Lang Zhong last year, Shen Ning has been thinking about a way to resolve this matter, and it was not until the beginning of this year that he came up with a solution.

Things go back to the beginning of this year, before the discussion of the spring officials, Shen Ning gave an order to Qiu Wu and Grasshopper, no matter what, he had to find a way to order the superintendent to go to He County, this one thing, he had to do it no matter what.

"You can start working on this now. Very urgent, but also very important. You can start with the supervision of the imperial history, how to do it, or you can figure out a way. Shen Ning thought about it and recalled the events of her previous life, about the supervision of the imperial history, she seemed to have vaguely heard people talk about Wang Zhi, the supervising imperial history, but what it was and what he was like, she really didn't know anything. can only provide such a clue and let Qiu Wu figure it out by himself.

Qiu Wu listened to Shen Ning's words and was already very accustomed to it. This little master is like this, he always gives some strange orders from time to time, at the beginning, Qiu Wu couldn't understand these reasons, but he tried his best to do it, and finally realized that all kinds of strange orders of this little master have a reason. And these reasons have been proved to be very correct.

Qiu Wu accepted this order obediently, and even was extremely willing. However, when he took a look at the map, his head was suddenly full of black lines, and he felt that it was a lot of pressure.

He County, is a county under the West Guizhou Prefecture of Xining Road, I don't know what the people and customs are, the only thing I know is that it is remote, and it is not an exaggeration to count 108,000 miles away from Jingzhao, how can I go there if I have nothing to do with the supervision of the imperial history? What to do there? There is also the supervision of the imperial history Wang Zhi, who is Wang Zhi, and how to start from him? Qiu Wu was forced to do so, but the little master said that this matter was very important, and he had to find a way.

"How, what's the way? Wang Zhi, who is Wang Zhi? Qiu Wu frowned and said to herself.
