Chapter 630: Thorough Analysis
When Chen Letian spoke, these imperial historians listened very carefully, after a long time. The situation was made very clear by Chen Letian, and you are worried that if I bring all the more than 1,000 officials for interrogation, it will cause turmoil in the officialdom, and may even force the county officials to jump over the wall in a hurry. Such fears cannot be said to be unfounded, but I want to tell you that what you are fearing will not happen.
First of all, there will be no major turmoil in officialdom. I calculated that there were about 5,000 officials in various parts of Shudi, and there were many temporary officials who were not registered in the register, so I am afraid that there would be tens of thousands of people in total.
And I just asked more than 1,000 of them to come to Chengdu.
The departure of more than 1,000 people will not shake the county government offices in the entire Shu region. And there is one thing to understand, even if all the officialdom in Shu is withdrawn, the only thing that will affect and can produce turmoil, or what we should pay attention to is the stability of various places.
Without the existence of the government and the absence of the law, the people would be prone to chaos as they pleased. The poor who have no money can rob the rich, and the rich can also rely on their strength to kill and bully the poor at will.
This is the so-called turmoil that we have to worry about.
But it is clear that the transfer of 1,000 out of 10,000 people will not cause such turmoil.
Chen Letian explained this, and after thinking about it, Zhang Yushi said: "My lord, after listening to what you said, we have figured out a lot, but I still have questions. If so many people are arrested and interrogated, will it be possible to find out the results? How effective can so many plaintiffs and defendants be?"
Chen Letian heard that after his own explanation, these imperial historians were less worried, at least not worried about the big turmoil in Shudi. As long as there is no major upheaval, there is no worsening. It's not that they are afraid of being held accountable by the imperial court for this turmoil, but that the turmoil in Shu is not good for the people, which is obvious. They are simply upholding their duty as a royal historian. If they were submissive no matter what Shangguan said, then they would not have become the middle-level pillars of the Imperial Historical Tower, and they would not be here today.
Faced with Zhang Yushi's question, Chen Letian said: "Lord Zhang's question is very good. How effective we are in doing this. I think first of all, the first point of the results lies in what the people think? So many people who have complained, their relatives, friends, and villagers in the township have all known that they have sued, and no one knows about the matter of the complaint, only that they have filed a complaint. Isn't the people worried in their hearts? I'm sure they don't know the bottom of their hearts, but I think that many people who still think about these things will regret that they shouldn't have sued in the first place, because they are afraid that they will be retaliated against in the future, and the more they think about it, the more they are afraid. So in this case, when all the Shu people see that our Prime Minister Yamen has actually called all the officials who are accused to the Yushi Yamen, what will the villagers think? Some of them will question whether we are just doing it for show or playing for real this time?"
Zhang Yushi first frowned and then raised his eyebrows and said: "It turns out that the adult is this idea, and the lower officials admire it!" The lower officials and the others didn't think of this at all, and they stayed on whether this move would cause turmoil in Shudi, and the adults originally proposed this plan based on this consideration from the beginning. ”
Chen Letian waved his hand: "Don't praise me, adults, it's best not to praise me in the future, the best way to cultivate a young man is not to praise him, but to educate him and teach him a lesson and beat him!" "Ladies and gentlemen, in terms of experience and age, I have also said before, I am not even a novice, and I dare to say that you guys, you have subverted my view of the imperial history. I used to think that the Imperial Masters were all old stubborn old antiques, who didn't know how to be flexible and didn't want to be flexible. But now I find out that the old buddies are not stubborn people at all, you know the current situation better than anyone else, you know that the situation in Shu is not something that can change overnight, you know that there are still many sensitive places in Shu, but you still don't forget your original intention, don't give up and don't accept your fate to do your duty. And what about me? I just pulled out a knife to help when I saw injustice, and I did it this time, and if I see something like this again next time, can I continue to do it? Maybe I was in a bad mood that day and didn't want to take care of this idle business?"
"I have an accident, but you are doing this job, and you are thinking about how to make the world less corrupt and corrupt all day long.
And our officials of the Great Song Dynasty are always driven by you. You're the horses of a carriage, and I'm probably just passing by and pushing.
Adults, how can the boy stand in front of you and be praised by you?
Compared with the children in your family, they are all similar to me, and you hope that they will be able to do things like you in the future. For me, then, you have to treat me as a young man like your children all these days.
You have to help me to improve, you have to let me go through the short but extraordinary time with you, so that I can make great progress, that is, no matter what method you use, you have to make me progress.
The only thing I want to do now is to go further and further, and go further. ”
On the long desk, Chen Letian specially arranged for all of them to work at the same table to enhance their relationship.
At this moment, after Chen Letian said this, everyone was stunned.
The Imperial Historians looked at Chen Letian's serious expression, and they couldn't help but think in their hearts, he really hoped that we could spur him, and really hoped that we wouldn't praise him. Alas, why don't I have such a good child in my family, that kid in my family, you haven't said anything bad about him, he just hugged his head and said Dad, don't talk about my headache. If you beat him, he will cry that you don't like me since I was a child, you weren't there when I was full moon, you weren't there when I was ten years old, you weren't there when I was crowned, you beat me, you beat me to death, anyway, you didn't like me since I was a child...
If I can learn a little bit of humility from Master Chen, no, even a little bit of knowing that people will be criticized if they want to improve, then I will be blind to the death of my father!
Chen Letian drank his saliva and continued: "Therefore, our move will be greatly praised by the people, which is what His Majesty asks to calm the anger of the people and make decisions for the people." So you don't have to worry that this move will make Shu turbulent, you can rest assured, there is no turmoil, and there is no reason to be turbulent. It's just that 12 out of 12 officials are recruited, and it can't affect the normal operation of the official office. ”
