Chapter 578: Joint
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhou Jinxuan began to rectify the four major departments, starting with the military department.
It's the annual recruitment season again, and the people in the military department are also busy.
Every year, the army needs to recruit a large number of soldiers, and in order to complete the target, the people of the military department can also be said to be eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers. And some only children in the family or people who do not want to join the army also use some extraordinary means to evade conscription.
Zhou Jinxuan sent someone to investigate secretly, and investigated all the people who should have joined the army but did not join the army, and found that in addition to a few cases that were indeed special, there were many large numbers that had no special reasons. Under closer inspection, these people all spent money, either to the squire or to the Shangshu. In exchange, it is a free body.
This is to understand that the pockets are filled.
Zhou Jinxuan had heard about this for a long time, but now that the evidence is in hand, he wants to serve it ruthlessly.
After recording the confessions of all the people who evaded military service one by one, Zhou Jinxuan turned his attention to the officials again.
The situation in the Ministry of Officials is even more serious than that of the Ministry of War.
The people who buy and sell officials are almost all over the court, and even the officials who go out to the early court every day also have those who buy officials.
Zhou Jinxuan asked Zhou Yuheng to secretly investigate and check the official status of all the officials who bought officials, so that those who have not obtained fame but can eat Yulu are seriously suspicious.
Zhou Yuheng quickly found out hundreds of people, and when Zhou Yuheng handed the list to Zhou Jinxuan, Zhou Jinxuan only glanced at it and pushed the list aside.
"If you are an official and not for the people, you can't be an official," Zhou Jinxuan suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "I will not let go of any of these officials who only want to sell their officials for personal gain." ”
It's just that Zhou Yuheng is a little worried, if he does what Zhou Jinxuan thinks, it will be difficult for the court to make a big wave.
If you can, it's also an option, gradually. But Zhou Yuheng denied Zhou Yuheng's idea, these people just occupy the pit and don't, and Zhou Jinxuan can't tolerate it for a day.
Among the remaining departments, the Criminal Department is the darkest, that is, Zhou Yuheng, who has heard of many unjust cases.
Some children of officials and eunuchs have caused human life, but they have arrested some people with no background to take the blame.
Or some people are desperate, and in order to leave some money for the Canadians, they are also helpless to take the blame.
What is even more hateful is that the officials of the criminal department will take the money and force some people who are just petty thieves to confess to murderers.
In order to collect evidence, Zhou Yuheng spent a lot of time going to the Criminal Department to check the information, although he could not investigate all the unjust and wrongful cases, but he also sorted out many problematic cases. found out that there were more than 100 officials in the criminal department who had received black money.
The rest of the household department, the Ministry of Rites, etc., also more or less checked some problems.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Zhou Jinxuan decided to come to a big net collection operation and posted a list of all the officials who were identified as problematic to Zhang Bang.
Zhou Jinxuan used the strategy of using strength to let the dog eat the dog.
Some people in order to protect themselves, seeing that they could divert their attention, took the initiative to impeach and report, but soon, these people were also posted on the list, and in this way, after a few reincarnations, the evidence of the crime on everyone's body was strictly knocked on.
Then, Zhou Yuheng took Zhou Jinxuan's order to escort these people back one after another, and put them in a cell waiting for their fate.
Suddenly, the people in the court were panicked, and everyone was in danger, but this was Zhou Jinxuan's purpose, to break through one by one, and finally to end it in one pot. And many old ministers were removed for dereliction of duty and replaced with Zhou Jinxuan's own people. And Zhou Yuheng was also promoted to the squire of the Ministry of War.
The old ministers suffered a loss, so they were naturally indignant, and they jointly signed a letter and knelt outside the Qianqing Palace.
Zhou Yuhenghe stood behind Zhou Jinxuan, looking at the jade-white open space of the palace, the kneeling crowd, all of them straightened their backbones, the one headed by Shi Daodao, with gray hair, eyebrows, holding a joint complaint with both hands, higher than the top of his head, shouting: "Your Majesty, wronged!" ”
With such a formation, it seems that these old ministers have suffered great grievances, and the initiator is naturally Zhou Jinxuan.
"Father, these people have obviously done something wrong, why can they still be so justified?" Zhou Yuheng was puzzled.
"Because they've done it all these years. For their own selfish desires, they unite and form a group, believing that no one can do anything with them. Zhou Jinxuan's eyebrows furrowed, "Hmph, a bunch of useless waste!" If it weren't for us fighting on the front line, where would they have come from to have the leisure and leisure to cross their legs every day to receive the country's money! ”
"If there are more people doing the wrong thing, the wrong thing will become the right thing." Zhou Yuheng clenched his fists, "Therefore, the weakness of the Great Ming Dynasty is not the reason for the continuous war, but because the ministers led by these old ministers only think about how to fill their pockets every day, ignoring the interests of the court and the people, and wanting to receive Yulu when they have nothing to do." Once someone wants to reform, they will rely on the old and sell the old, and build momentum with numbers, often the people do not know the inside story, and think that they are really pitiful. ”
"But fortunately, the emperor is wise and willing to give me the greatest trust to solve them." Zhou Jinxuan said with emotion, "The first emperor is different, he would rather let these moths eat empty food than keep him as his henchman." ”
Zhou Yuheng seemed to understand a lot at once, and the burden on his shoulders became heavier and heavier.
Palace.
The autumn begonias are full of branches, either purple or pink, so showy. On the edge of the begonia, a few daisies are quietly blooming, small and faint.
Lin Ran walked out irritably, "Go back!" I have already checked, and Zhou Jinxuan's rectification of you has evidence! No exaggeration! Go back and get right, repent, and one day I will reactivate you. ”
Of course, Zhou Jinxuan didn't wronged anyone, and some of the kneeling people who Lin Ran said were about to move.
It was Shi Daodao, who was the first to stand up and say: "Your Majesty, we are dedicated to the country, and please ask the Emperor to be clear!" ”
"You have nothing to do all day long, but you are united in one breath to attack newcomers, and you have been rampant for a long time, could it be that I am still punishable? I asked Zhou Jinxuan to do it. Lin Ran finally brushed his sleeves away, "You have disappointed me too much. ”
Seeing that the emperor ignored it, someone finally got up and left, and soon, people left one after another, and in the end, only Shi Daode knelt there.
Zhou Jinxuan met Lin Ran.
"Your Majesty, you need to strike while the iron is hot, since Shi Daode took the lead in opposing the emperor, why didn't the emperor behead Shi Daode and make an example." Zhou Jinxuan suggested.
"Shi Daodao's crime is not to death, I can't behead people who shouldn't be beheaded for the sake of stability, how is this different from a tyrant?" Lin Ran refused, "Don't worry, just knelt down in a big row, and only Shi Daode was the only one who could hold on until now." ”
