Chapter 35: Twenty Years Old?

"You are the history of the Lieutenant Department of the Division?!"

In the Tingwei Mansion, Chen Qian sat on the top seat, gritted his teeth, and looked at the history in front of him.

Shi Shi whispered, "I am." ”

"How old are you?!"

"I'm Twenty"

"Twenty?!"

Chen Qian immediately sneered, he looked at the little guy in front of him, this guy was not yet his chest, his face was full of immaturity, and he had the face to say that he was twenty??

Chen Qian slapped the case in front of him suddenly, "It's not from the truth!" ”

The historian was immediately frightened by Chen Qian and cried.

Chen Qian's people were numb, and he intended to throw this guy into prison, but looking at his age, he still held back his anger.

He looked at Xun Yu on the side.

This person had just served as Ting Weizheng and became Chen Qian's deputy.

As Xun Yi gained a firm foothold, the Xun family can be said to be a chicken and a dog ascending to heaven, and they have taken important positions.

When Chen Qian stared at him, Xun Yu's face was a little embarrassed.

"Gong Chen, there may be some misunderstanding in this matter."

"Yes, this Xun is engaged in history, and it will be handed over to you, Xun Tingwei, to govern."

Chen Qian said coldly, especially with an accent on the Xun character.

Xun Yu hurriedly stepped forward and ordered the child to be taken down left and right.

Chen Qian knew that the appointment of officials in the temple was a little chaotic, but he didn't expect it to be so chaotic that a child in his early teens was actually the history of the Great Wei Sili School Captain's Department.

And on the personal information of this person who is engaged in history, it is clearly written that this person is twenty years old this year.

What the hell is this twenty years old??

Is your Xun family really arrogant to this point? Do you really not take the temple law into account? Fooling everyone for a fool?

This kid was clearly changed in age, and then started his career in advance, and he didn't need to do anything anyway, and he didn't even have to show up.

Just when Chen Qian calmed down his angry mood, Xun Yu suddenly said: "There is one more thing that is not right. ”

"What's the matter??"

"There is also a person who is engaged in history called Chen."

"Also a child?"

Xun Yu hurriedly shook his head, "It's not that there is no such person."

Chen Qian was stunned, "What do you mean that there is no such person??" ”

"It's just that I can't find anything about this person, and no one has seen him, it's just that there is this name, and the rest is completely unrecorded"

Xun Yu whispered.

The green tendons on Chen Qian's forehead appeared.

He didn't speak for a long time.

Suddenly, Chen Qian stood up abruptly and looked at Xun Yu on the side.

"Keep an eye on those who have been arrested, and no one will be allowed to contact the outside world, and if it leaks out, I will not spare you."

"Yui!!"

Chen Qian got into the carriage and quickly set off in the direction of the Taiji Palace.

With the cooperation of Zheng Qian, Chen Qian found that there were very serious problems in many departments, and after the investigation, Chen Qian chose to go all out.

In Wang Jing's division alone, there were thirty histories and fifty-eight false assistants who were disposed of.

This is a dignified division of the school captain's department!!

The supervision department is subordinate to the region, so it is supervised??

That little history was sent to be gilded in advance, and the other one was not pretended, whether there was anyone or not, and then it would take a place first.

Chen Qian's people are numb.

In the past, the Eastern Han Dynasty's division and school captain department had 12 histories, 25 fake zuos, and 37 subordinate officials.

Today's Sili School Captain Department is engaged in history forty, fake sixty, and one hundred subordinate officials!

One hundred subordinate officials, these people can't squeeze in the department of the lieutenant of the school!

Among these people, there are probably only about 20 people who are really doing things, and the rest are either here to mix qualifications or to mix up.

After Emperor Wen, the official system of the entire temple was greatly supplemented, and many inexplicable official positions appeared.

In fact, Emperor Wen's original idea was probably to divide the power of the ministers, and he probably had discovered the threat of the family, so he set up a lot of official positions, subordinate officials, and wanted to divide the power of the ministers to suppress these people.

And the ministers have more positions, so naturally they will not object.

However, when the situation developed into the Cao Chao period, it was a big problem.

Take the Sili School Captain Department as an example, for a quota of 100 people, 20 people do things, and 80 people sit back and enjoy their success, and the daily work of those 80 people is to serve and drink, chant poems against them, comment on the world's celebrities, and think they are elegant.

Then, if there is merit, everyone will share it equally, and the first to climb up are those who do not do things and do not come to the Sili Lieutenant Department for a day.

The situation in the temple is already like this, and how terrible the local situation will be, Chen Qian doesn't dare to think about it.

No wonder the general was keen to punish the three clans, even if there was no collusion, he had to find a reason to forcibly punish him, how many moths were there in Dawei who were constantly sucking blood?

When Chen Qian came to the Taiji Hall with a straight face, Cao Chao was still busy.

There were two people sitting in front of Cao Chao, namely Lu Qin, the great Si Nong, and Cui Zan, the secretary of the Duzhi Shangshu.

Shangshutai has a clear division of labor, and is known as the eight Shangshu, of which there is one order, two servants, and six Shangshu.

These six Shangshu are responsible for different things, the official Shangshu has appeared, and the Duzhi Shangshu is the predecessor of the later Hubu Shangshu, which is responsible for food.

This is the semi-finished product of the later three-province six-part system.

The power of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries is transitioning to Shangshutai, and even most of it has been transitioned, but it has not been completely abolished, and many ministers treat the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries as honorary officials.

Cao Chao is discussing with these two at the moment the next issue of military salary.

Of course, Cui Zan was very opposed to Cao Chao's idea, but he was also worried that Cao Chao would skip him directly and use Lu Qin to complete this matter.

Although he is a scholar who has taken away the authority of Da Si Nong, Da Si Nong still has his own subordinate officials, and it cannot be said that it is useless.

This is the case in today's temples, and there are not a few officials with the same authority.

If you oppose it, you may have to seize power on the side that supports it.

Cui Zan said helplessly: "Your Majesty, your benevolence, the minister knows, and you are also thinking about those armor soldiers, but my Great Wei's Chinese army has more than 100,000 people, if their treatment is improved, then the foreign troops around will definitely not accept it, if it is also promoted, it will be to improve the treatment of nearly 300,000 people." ”

"This is not a small expenditure, today's granary looks full, because of the accumulation of previous years, if it is carried out according to His Majesty's orders, I am afraid that within three years, the granary will be empty, and there will be no reserves."

"There's no way to maintain this scale in the future."

Cui Zan seems to fully support Cao Chao's idea, but what he says is that he has been looking for a thorn.

It was the Shu State that kept eating the old capital, Cao Wei completed the tax profits very early, and the slight increase in the treatment of the Jiashi was not enough to destroy the foundation of the entire Great Wei, after all, Cao Wei had his own tuntian organization, and in many areas he directly used the peasants as tenants, and let them work crazy on the premise of ensuring that they did not starve to death.

If in other dynasties, no one would believe that Shang Shutai did not order the transfer of grain and seeds to cause the people to revolt, but in my Great Wei, this is feasible, because the cultivated land is the public land opened up by the government, and the people are just cultivating for the temple, not ownership, and farming and harvesting depend on the meaning of the official.

They're not paying taxes, they're called serfs!

But if you think Cao Wei's policy is too cruel, that's not right, in a way, Cao Wei ensured that these peasants could work and eat, and did not let them starve to death, and they were afraid of comparison in everything, especially compared with the previous chaos in the late Han Dynasty.

At that time, the land of the common people was frantically annexed by the powerful people, displaced, and they became lifelong slaves of the powerful after years of war.

At least the temple will give arable land from time to time, so that they will not be killed until they are tired.

Compared with the other two countries, Wu is even more undesirable, and Shu is even more precarious, and the old bottom is almost eaten up.

Now Cui Zan said to himself that the income and expenditure of the temple cannot maintain such a "military expenditure", Cao Chao absolutely does not believe it, after cleaning up those corrupt moths, maybe he can save a lot by improving his treatment!

The annual military expenditure of the Great Wei Dynasty is a sky-high figure, and how much of this huge military expenditure is used on the armor soldiers, no one knows, layers of exploitation, greed for ink, or the kind of righteousness and brightness, one is to ignore the worldly vision, and one to ask is the Wei and Jin madmen, who are at ease.

Cao Chao did not directly expose Cui Zan's lies, he looked at Lu Qin on the side.

Lu Qin laughed, "Cui Gong, I have calculated the income and expenditure over the years, I don't think what you said is right, the income and expenditure of this army seems to be somewhat inconsistent with the actual treatment today?" ”

A fine sweat suddenly broke out on Cui Zan's forehead, "There are also some that are used to reward meritorious soldiers." ”

"What do you think about saving this reward in the future, turning it into a treat, and boosting the morale of the whole army?"

Luchin asked again.

Cui Zan hurriedly nodded in approval.

Cui Zan didn't dare to continue this topic, many of Dawei's expenditures can't be more real, if they are really true, I don't know how many people will die.

Cui Zan can't afford to take that responsibility.

Lu Qin looked at the emperor at this time, his eyes were full of disdain, none of these moths in the temple could withstand interrogation, he just cheated casually, and the other party decisively admitted it, which also shows that there are indeed some problems with the military spending of Great Wei.

Cao Chao also did not continue this topic, things like this, just write it down for now.

There will be a chance to settle accounts with them.

"Your Majesty!! Tingwei Chen Gong asks to see!! ”
