At night in Chang'an, the cool breeze blows away the impetuousness of the day, which makes people intoxicated.

Li Ye and Li Juchuan walked in front, and the guards followed behind.

Suddenly, Li Ye didn't know what to say.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, corruption was not a problem at all, Yizong himself was extravagant, traveling casually, accompanied by 100,000 followers at every turn, and encouraged officials and feudal towns to embezzle, feeling that corruption would not cause trouble for the imperial court.

In the Xizong Dynasty, a polo game, Xizong gave up the position of Xichuan Jiedu envoy to Tian Lingzi's brother Chen Jingxuan, Dong Chang was able to sit in eastern Zhejiang, that is, to loot the people's fat and ointment and send it to Xinzong, which won the favor of Xizong and crowned the king.

What ended the rule of the Tang Dynasty was not the division of feudal towns, but the bitter hatred of the people for the decaying empire.

Qiu Fu, Pang Xun, Wang Xianzhi, and Huang Chao lost the hearts of the people, and the Tang Dynasty existed in name only.

There is no Zhu Quanzhong, as well as Li Quanzhong and Yang Quanzhong.

Li Juchuan is also a hard-working person, the first half of his life was shaky, in history, after defecting to Zhu Wen, it aroused Jing Xiang's jealousy, and Jing Xiang persuaded Zhu Wen to kill him.

Beicheng is not the home of the eunuchs, or some industrial aborigines, but when they arrived in the southern city, the lights were not so gorgeous, and the leaky door panel could not block the cool breeze, and there was silence in the dark.

Most of the people in Nancheng were the displaced people recruited at the beginning, and the powerful ones were added to the auxiliary army or village households, and the lonely and helpless stayed here.

Li Ye ordered the guards to knock on the door of a house at will, and inside the door was an old man in his sixties, coughing and opening the door, with gray hair, and his face was full of folds condensed with difficulty, and when he saw so many people, his lips trembled and he couldn't speak, and he didn't even know where to put his eyes.

"Awen....." The voice of a child came from inside the door.

"Did you bring any money?" Li Ye said to Li Juchuan.

Li Juchuan was disheveled, and touched a jade pendant to come out, this thing is not harmful to ordinary people.

Li Ye thought for a moment, "Take off your clothes." “

Li Juchuan dared to say half a "no", and hurriedly ripped off his round-necked robe and handed it to the old man.

The old man's hands trembled.

Li Hao didn't talk nonsense, knocked on the door of the next house, and the person who opened the door was a forty-year-old man, but he had a broken arm, and he didn't know how to survive in this ancient world where there was a shortage of medical treatment, Li Ye asked Li Juchuan to take off his boots and give them to others.

The man looked dazed, he didn't know which of these people were singing, and stayed there.

Li Ye knocked on the door again, and successively sent out waving pants and top clothes.

Li Juchuan stood shirtless in the cold wind and sneezed vigorously.

"The people's livelihood is so difficult, it's hard for me to sleep and eat." In his previous life, when Li Ye just graduated, he didn't find a job, and he also had the experience of drinking the northwest wind, renting a house by the river that was about to be demolished, looking at the lights on the other side, feeling that he was living in another world.

Li Juchuan suddenly knelt on the ground, wailed and cried bare-chested, hugged Li Ye's thighs, and wiped his nose when he cried: "The minister is guilty, the minister is sorry for Your Majesty." “

Li Ye suspected that this guy had wiped all the snot on his body, "Get up, get up, you are all a king, what do you look like when you cry?" “

"The minister is guilty, guilty." Originally, Nancheng was blinded by black lights, making it look like a mourning, which made people feel chills in their hearts.

"Okay, okay, if you want money, tomorrow you will play a concert, resign from all positions, I will let you enjoy the wealth of your life, but if you want to leave a name in history, you must control your hands and your trouser belt."

After more than a year of getting along, Li Ye still admires Li Juchuan's ability, his head is very smart, and there is a lot of bad water in his stomach, he is definitely one of the best strategists in the late Tang Dynasty, or he would not have summoned Jingxiang's jealousy.

I remember that Yue Fei said that civil officials don't love money, and military attaches don't hesitate to die, so why is the world not peaceful?

It is a myth in itself to demand that everyone be honest, but if people are selfish, they will harm the public interest.

The newborn Datang can't afford to play so many tricks.

"Ministers, ministers will never dare again."

Of course, Li Juchuan is not a fool, he has no power, what is the use of being rich and rich?

The more I cried, the louder it became, attracting a pair of eyes between the doors and windows.

"Alright, keep your voice down." Li Ye hurriedly helped him up and said to the guards beside him, "It's cold in the middle of the night, send Li Yuanjun back." “

On the second day, a list of officials who bent the law for personal gain was directly posted on the gate of the imperial city, how much money was embezzled, how much fertile land was occupied, how many houses were embezzled, and how many bad things were done.

Chen Gongren, the history of Fengzhou, Li Delian, the history of Ningzhou, Linghuying, and Wang Jingze, the history of Danzhou, were at the top.

Other guilty persons shall be dealt with according to the degree of culpability, according to the law.

Li Juchuan took the lead in pleading guilty and handed over the stolen money.

Li Ye was dismissed from his post as Quan Fengxiang's defense envoy, and once he was pushed to the end, he became a staff member without a name.

For a while, Guanzhong was boiling, and it was obvious that Li Ye had broken the rules and gameplay of the game.

Is it still a matter of greed and filth in this world?

The most bullish is Fengzhou Assassin Chen Gongren, who actually raised troops directly to resist, when the Tang Army defeated Fengxiang, Chen Gongren saw that Li Maozhen had gone and switched to the Tang Dynasty.

Li Ye out of prudence, let him still serve as the assassin of Fengzhou.

While making trouble, Chen Gongren also asked Tang Ting for forgiveness, saying how unavoidable, how difficult, and how loyal he was.

Wang Jingze, the assassin of Danzhou, also made trouble, saying that the domestic soldiers were making trouble, and he had to stay in Danzhou for the sake of the imperial court.

But they clearly underestimated Lee's determination.

This is no longer not only a problem of corruption and corruption, but also a problem of Tang Ting's control over the local government.

At the end of the Tang Dynasty, the local officials had soldiers and generals in their hands, and some of them were still military officers, and they were the soil emperors behind closed doors, so they naturally did not obey the imperial edicts.

Li Ye wanted to use this to establish the authority of the Tang Dynasty.

As soon as Zhang Chengye Fengxiang's 10,000 auxiliary soldiers came to Fengzhou City, Chen Gongren was sent out by Wuhua Tie.

Danzhou is a bit tricky, after all, the recovery time is not long, Wang Jing Ze was born in a martial arts, has a greater control over the territory, and a group of tooth soldiers followed.

Li Ye's pants are off, they will definitely not be soft, otherwise how will they mix in the future?

Tuoba Yun returned with 7,000 Praetorian Guards and 20,000 auxiliary troops to conquer.

The court moved seriously, Wang Jingze couldn't bear it, resisted for more than ten days, the loyal and righteous people in the city united with the young and strong, opened the city gate, the Praetorian Guards swarmed in, and killed Wang Jingze and the tooth soldiers on the spot.

Seeing the blood, the rest of the list could only bow their heads and accept their fate.

When the sinner was escorted to Chang'an, people everywhere applauded and sang praises to the emperor.

Chang'an was even more unprecedented, not only the people, but also the scholars and scholars who were resting and the soldiers came to watch.

Li Ye didn't wronged anyone, so he asked Han Yi to set up a court in front of the imperial city, tried him in public, and made a mischievous banner: Confession is lenient and resists strictly.

Where the crime is unforgivable, direct beheading, and where the circumstances are more minor, punishment is to be given as appropriate, based on an attitude of admitting guilt.

In such a situation at the end of the Tang Dynasty, none of them were clean, and after so many years of inertia, if it was a strict punishment, it would definitely be a lot of people.

Some of the most heinous sins were cut down, and others were cut down to the people.

To deal with corruption and corruption, it is certainly not enough to rely on strict punishment and strict laws, nor can it rely on the moral level of officials.

Only when the system keeps up with it, these people dare not reach out and cannot reach out.

Now that the Imperial City Division is exposed to the world, the deterrence against them is quite great.

In the examination of military attachés, there was a strict system for judging the criteria for the promotion and demotion of officials, and in the late Tang Dynasty, even the officials were useless, not to mention the examination of meritorious service.

Li Ye simply merged this function into the Imperial City Division.

The soldiers who were trained in the auxiliary army were all filled into the states and counties, and they still started from the bottom level.

It is definitely unrealistic to be a county master as soon as you come.
