The problem of Jiangzhou was solved quickly, and all the officials and nobles were directly killed, and then the whole clan was exiled to Lingnan.

The entire Jiangzhou officialdom and nobles were swept away, and even many heroes were implicated and the whole family was exiled. Therefore, the descendants of the nobles and royal families of the Chu State were all arrested for screening.

Once it is found that it is related to the witch of the old Chu, all of them will be killed.

After this action, most of the heroes here in Jiangzhou have also been cleaned up.

At the beginning, when the Great Cadres attacked and destroyed the Chu State, they did not liquidate the nobles and royal families of the Chu State, but only abolished their titles and confiscated half of their family wealth, in fact, they still had an advantage in the local area with their strength.

It is precisely because of this that these people dare to make small moves.

The affairs of Jiangzhou were declared to be the scourge of witches, and the witches of the remnants of Chu used the name of Taiyi to connect officials and nobles to deliberately rebel, and now they have all been killed. Everything about poppies is concealed and then disguised as witchcraft shrine maidens.

At the same time, Wang Yi's edict was also sent, all the poppies were collected, and the valley was also blocked by the army. All the poppies can only be collected by the royal family, and in order to ensure that there is no interference here, Wang Yi divided this area within a radius of twenty miles into the imperial village.

The affairs of the entire Jiangzhou were quickly dealt with, and Jiangzhou was also taken very seriously by the imperial court because of the opium poppy problem. In the future, those who held the position of Jiangzhou county guard were basically the henchmen of the royal family.

The affairs of Jiangzhou caused an uproar in the court, but because of the court's resolute and resolute handling of the situation, it quickly calmed down. Many people began to run for an official position for their families.

It is another year of assessment, and the imperial court evaluates the performance of officials in the world. The cadres have formulated a perfect system for the promotion of officials, which requires three consecutive years of evaluation and reporting to the emperor for examination before they can be promoted. If you are assessed for three consecutive years, you will be demoted. If it is peaceful, it will encourage one, two, and four years to be transferred.

As soon as this kind of evaluation system was implemented, many talented officials were promoted, and some mediocre people who did nothing were demoted.

There are many evaluation items in the imperial court, the first is household registration and land, the second is taxation, the third is water conservancy projects and road maintenance, the fourth is whether there are unjust, false and wrongful cases, the fifth is the feedback on the problem of peasants and soldiers, and the sixth is the solution of bandits and rebellions in the jurisdiction.

A hundred years after the founding of the country, many things have basically been fixed, such as land, and the vast majority of wasteland has been reclaimed, and it is no longer realistic to want a large amount of growth. There is also tax revenue, which is mainly agricultural in the country, and the growth of tax revenue is also very slow, and unjust, false and wrongful convictions depend on individual ability. Problems such as peasants and soldiers, as well as bandits, are now the peak of the dynasty, and these are basically no problems.

Since these things can be done well, if you want to have outstanding political achievements, you can basically only get extra points from unjust, false and wrongful cases and persuading farmers to take out loans for young seedlings.

Therefore, officials in various localities will compete with each other in such areas as unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, persuasion of agricultural and mulberry loans, and loans for young seedlings.

Wang Yi looked at last year's official assessment, there are not many officials who can be assessed for three consecutive years, as long as it is true, these people are capable ministers, so the emperor is very concerned about these people.

Every year in the assessment, Wang Yi will select the people who are on the assessment, and this year is no exception.

Soon those who were evaluated were selected, and in order to prevent these people from cheating, Wang Yi would review the political performance of these people. At the same time, it is compared with previous data.

If there is a significant change, it will be documented in detail, and the reason and how will be explained. If there is any doubt about this, the court will send another person to check.

Wang Yi flipped through the information and suddenly stopped.

"Someone, go and get the information of Qin Tianjian last year, as well as the results of last year's national famine."

"Yui." Several chamberlains immediately turned around and left to look for it, and soon found the sealed fold from the study next to it.

"Your Majesty, I have found it." The chamberlain sent the two books over.

Wang Yi took over the music and quickly found the content he wanted. In May, there was a severe drought and no harvest. On the note of Qin Tianjian, it is written that there is a drought in the local area and the production has been reduced.

In addition to these, the number of local seedlings loans has increased year by year for three consecutive years. Especially in this year's Seedlings Loan, almost more than 70% of the farmers have used the Seedlings Loan.

This percentage is higher than that of all the affected places. You must know that after the disaster, the imperial court will take this opportunity to relocate the population, and the people who will use the green seedling loan in the next year are only about half of the previous year, and since there are no migrant people in this place, the disaster must not be too serious, but why is there such a high green seedling loan.

Although the interest rate of BIBS loans is very low, for ordinary people, they will not borrow unless they have to. Now this borrowing ratio is too high, and it is a bit unreasonable.

Wang Yi suspects that local officials deliberately forced people to borrow money as a way to highlight their political achievements.

Thinking of this, Wang Yi immediately ordered someone to invite the three prime ministers to inquire.

"Your Majesty, this young seedling lender has learned before, and half of them are borrowed by local tyrants." Chao looked at Song Shu and said.

Theoretically, all people can borrow, and the interest rate of the Seedlings loan is only 10% and 5%, which is much lower than other loans. At the beginning, the imperial court was because the lowest loans of the powerful and nobles in various places were 30%, and many even 50%, and these people used usury to exploit the people, so the imperial court launched Qingmiao Loan to help the people.

After all, the small-scale peasant economy is too affected by the weather, and once the harvest is not good, the people need to borrow some money to get by. This time is mostly the cultivation period, so it is called the seedling loan.

But this loan is for ordinary people, not for Haoqiang. After all, Haoqiang doesn't need this loan at all, and of course, the imperial court has no clear regulations that Haoqiang can't take out a loan. Even compared with ordinary people, it is easier to recover loans to Haoqiang.

If you lend money to Haoqiang, then there is no problem with this performance. It's just that Wang Yi still has some doubts in his heart, and after seeing something, Chao Cuo smiled and said, "Your Majesty is worried that other people will follow suit and lend Qingmiao to Haoqiang?" If you are worried about this, it has been clearly stated from this year that lending money to Haoqiang will not be counted in the political performance, and presumably local officials will know what to do. ”

"Yes!" Wang Yi nodded.

"Send an inspector to Tancheng to see what the problem of the Qingmiao loan is." Wang Yi was a little suspicious after all, and the three prime ministers had no opinions, it was just a trivial matter, just send someone to investigate.
