"Slander! Your Majesty, Yan Hong is slandering the ministers! ”

Bao Xi, who was forced to be anxious, hurriedly said to Qingji: "Yan Hong is my corrupt official in Bohai County!" The biggest corrupt official! ”

"He has been the county magistrate and county magistrate for many years, and I don't know how much people's fat and people's ointment he has looted, not to mention the land and property he owns, there are a lot of smuggling in Yan Hong's account."

"Your Majesty, please be aware of it!"

Qingji frowned, looked around for a week, and asked, "Are Bicao Peng and Shi of Bohai County here?" ”

"The minister is here!"

Than Cao Peng and Shi, they are the two officials who check the property in the main county and the mantissa number.

In Dawu, the two officials were also in charge of the affairs of the money village at the county level.

"On Yan Hong's account, there really is a lot of hidden smuggling?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there is indeed a lot of money from unknown sources in Yan Hong's account, the specific amount has not yet been confirmed, but there are at least tens of millions of money."

Hearing this, Qingji glanced at Yan Hong.

Bao Xi took the opportunity to say loudly: "Your Majesty, where did he get tens of millions of money to deposit tens of millions of dollars from a county order with a mere district order and a county order with a rank of 600 stones?" ”

"Yan Hong has been a county magistrate for a hundred years, and it is impossible to deposit tens of millions in Qianzhuang!"

"Where does all this money come from? It must be Yan Hong's illegal gains! ”

"Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"

Yan Hong gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty! Treat unjustly! Wronged! ”

"Bao Xi, they are slandering the minister!"

"Since he became an official, he has been law-abiding, and he has never been corrupt or bent the law."

"Bao Xi is clearly planting a blame!"

"What a blame!"

Bao Xi sneered: "Yan Hong, you are dying, how dare you speak so loudly?" ”

"My Dawu's money bank, every deposit or withdrawal, borrowing, return, there is a corresponding flow account, when you save, when you withdraw, how much you save, how much you withdraw, every account has a detailed record!"

"Do you still dare to deny it?"

Hearing this, Yan Hong's face sank, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Bao Xi, most of the princes of this Bohai County Mansion are your people!" ”

"Why is it so difficult for you to make false accounts?"

"Okay, you still dare to slander me!"

"Enough!"

Seeing that Yan Hong and Bao Xi were still arguing, Qingji interrupted, and then pointed at Yan Hong and said, "Come on, put Yan Hong in prison for me, and wait for the fate!" ”

"No!"

"Your Majesty! The minister is wronged! The minister is wronged! ”

No matter how Yan Hong wanted to defend himself, he shouted loudly and shouted grievances, but he was carried out by two guards with big shoulders and round waists.

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

Bao Xi and other civil and military officials of Bohai County all praised Qingji.

……

After everyone left, Qingji left the imperial grandson Wu Ji alone.

Wu Ji had previously defeated the alien rebels in Central Asia in the Amu Darya area, and after returning triumphantly, this time he followed Qingji out on patrol.

Qingji plans to cultivate Wu Ji well.

After all, Wu Ji is Qingji's eldest grandson.

If nothing else, Wu Ji will be the "third emperor" of Great Wu in the future......

"Kier, what do you think about this?"

Qingji set his eyes on Wu Ji's body.

Wu Ji frowned and said, "Imperial Grandfather, in the opinion of the grandson, there may be something else hidden in this matter. Imperial grandfather, are you too hasty to put Yan Hong in prison like this? ”

"Sloppy?"

Qingji Wan'er smiled and said: "Ji'er, Yan Hong's temperament is so strong, this time he directly tore his face with Bao Xi again." ”

"If you don't put him in prison, I'm afraid it won't be long before Yan Hong dies."

"This ...... Bao Xi: Do they really have such courage? ”

Wu Ji was a little surprised.

"The human heart is not enough for a snake to swallow an elephant. Keeer, the dog will jump over the wall when he is in a hurry, and the rabbit will bite when he is in a hurry. ”

Qing Ji looked secretive and said, "Bao Xi and the others are corrupt, in fact, I already know about it. ”

"In the past few years, there have been many people who have impeached Bao Xi, and I have also sent a lot of imperial historians to Bohai County to make secret visits, and even sent people from the Black Ice Platform to visit, but nothing has been found."

"This guy, like the old fox, hides not as deep as usual."

Hearing this, Wu Ji smiled and said, "Grandfather Huang, no matter how cunning the old fox is, he will never be able to escape the palm of your hand Grandfather Huang. ”

"Kee, don't underestimate these people."

Qingji shook his head and said: "The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill. ”

"People's greed is endless, if the officials are favoritism and irregularities, they will inevitably force the people to rebel in the end, and one or two officials are corrupt, but if most of the officials are corrupt, the country will be finished, and the bones will be rotten."

"My Great Wu's officials have not been very clear, do you know why?"

“……”

Wu Ji thought for a while, and then said: "Imperial grandfather, grandson thinks that my big Wu officials are clear and clear, and corrupt officials like Bao Xi are only a handful of people after all. ”

"There are imperial historians in my big Wu Ming, there is a black ice platform in the secret, there is no shortage of ministers who dare to speak out, there is no shortage of people who dare to speak out, where is the soil for corrupt officials to survive?"

Hearing this, Qingji pointed at himself and said slowly: "Ji'er, you are wrong, what you see is only the appearance, the superficial phenomenon. ”

"The reason why my Great Wu's officials are like this is because of me."

"I have always adhered to the principle of 'when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives'. Life in the world, it is rare to get a lake...... Got it? ”

"My grandson understands, and I don't understand it."

Wu Ji asked with some confusion: "Grandfather Huang, you know that some people are corrupt officials and traitors, why do you keep them and entrust them with important tasks?" ”

"Kier, you mean to talk about Bo Ya, right?"

"Yes."

"Bo Yao can be said to be the number one greedy man in my Great Wu. However, he has principles as an official, and he has 'three non-corruptions', such as not being greedy for military salaries, not being greedy for disaster relief money, and not being greedy for things that cannot be done. ”

Qingji said meaningfully: "He is also lax in corruption, and he knows what money he can ask for and what money he can't want." ”

"This is my bottom line, and it is also the bottom line of Dawu's governance."

"If you cross this bottom line, no matter who you are, you will die, and you will be punished with the canonical punishment and the law of the country."

"I see. Imperial grandfather, grandson understood. ”

Wu Ji has already understood Qingji's good intentions.

There are some things that Qingji can do with one eye and one eye closed.

Dawu has a vast territory and many officials, and corrupt officials will definitely not be able to kill them.

The most ruthless emperor in history who killed corrupt officials was Zhu Yuanzhang.

Power can be said to be a double-edged sword, some people are prosperous and wealthy, and some people are ruined because of this, and the evening is not guaranteed.

After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, he began to adopt various means to fight corruption.

At the beginning, Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated that embezzling ten taels of silver would reach the level of sentencing, and more than sixty taels could basically be used as an army.

Once the corrupt officials are caught, they will be merciless, and most of them will be directly killed.

The embezzlers will be skinned and cramped, and made into scarecrows to be spurned for.

At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang also stipulated a system, that is, the people had a big book, and the laws of the Ming Dynasty at that time, no matter how big or small the officials, once corruption and crime were discovered, the common people could directly send them to the official yamen.

If you are not at ease with the local government, you can be escorted directly to the capital.

If the evidence is conclusive, he will be killed directly in the capital.

According to historical records, in the era of Zhu Yuanzhang alone, more than 150,000 corrupt officials were killed, and corrupt officials of all sizes across the country were killed......

However, the effect of this cruel punishment is not too obvious.
