Chapter 172: The Imperial Court Division

In the shade of a big tree next to a small garden not far behind the emperor's meeting hall, the old ancestor and Xiao Jiu were sitting around a small table, leisurely drinking the tea that Xiao Jiu had brewed. I saw Xiao Jiu's eldest brother, the current eldest prince, coming to the side, coughing and spitting out the water in his stomach all the way, and came to the two and said, "Grandpa, it seems that it will take a while for you to leave." ”

The old ancestor smiled and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, let them quarrel, the more noisy the better, the more prosperous the fight, the more beautiful, I'm afraid they won't quarrel." ”

The eldest brother said: "You are so old that you are idle, I have been running for almost thirty times." ”

The old ancestor said: "Calm down, don't complain like this, be graceful, understand." ”

The eldest brother nodded, took a sip of tea, and ran towards the council hall again. The old ancestor said to Xiao Jiu: "It seems that the plan you have set to increase the number of officials and divide their power has been hooked, I really think that the purpose of setting up so many more officials is to divide power." ”

Xiao Jiu said: "How can the eye of the insect catch up with the birds, with the so-called old experience to calculate people, it is inevitable that he will not eat this foolish loss, this is the beginning, within three months, he is crying, and when the time comes, it is time for us to collect interest, thinking about all the beauty." ”

The old ancestor shook his head and said: "How old are you now, sometimes I really confuse you, and I always look at you as a peer, hey, goblin." ”

Xiao Jiu didn't answer, just closed his eyes and didn't say a word. The old ancestor once again took out the rules of the superintendent given by Xiao Jiu, looked at it and shook his head. This is also the first time that we have seen a clause on the punishment of property for mistakes, that is, the money of officials must be confiscated, and the money must be handed over to the own account of the Supervision Yuan, and if the money cannot be paid, the official position will be removed and handed over to the Law Enforcement Yuan for strict handling. This is a clause that is not allowed to be changed. The old ancestor has always been obsessed with this, but Xiao Jiu didn't explain, which made the old ancestor anxious and helpless, and Xiao Jiu pretended to be deaf and dumb, just didn't say it.

At this time, the eldest brother ran over again and said to the ancestor: "Grandpa, it's time for you to get old, they are already fighting for the position of the last official, and it's finally over." ”

The old ancestor took Xiao Jiu's hand and walked slowly into the emperor's meeting hall, just like an idle old man who led his great-grandson to wander around. Inadvertently slipped here, and when all the officials saw the old ancestor sneaking in, they all stood up in panic, looking at the old ancestor, I don't know how this great god came here today.

The old ancestor said: "I came today just to tell you. There have been a lot of things going on over the years to add a superintendent. None of them are well implemented. Add an agency to check the implementation, I have candidates for the top three directors, don't bother with you, you can do the rest, do you have any problems. No, that's it. ”

Everyone stared at each other and said nothing, and then the eldest brother said, "Grandpa." The organization you mentioned is indeed very good, but the question is how many personnel are needed, and how to solve the problem of these personnel. At present, the country's financial resources are tight and cannot afford such a large number of personnel. ”

The old ancestor was very unhappy and asked, "What was it like before?" ”

The emperor said: "Over the years, the state has been the most prosperous. Another half of the upper Tujia sticker. This year, there are quite a few more officials, and there are many more expenses. ”

The old ancestor said: "No wonder it takes so long to appoint an official, you decide first, I want to find a way to talk about it." As he spoke, he took Xiao Jiu's hand and walked out again.

As soon as the people of the Shangtu family heard this, they wanted to set up an institution with real power, and the supervisor was out of play, but the others must be taken, so they began to quarrel again, and then the emperor seemed to be tired, so he gave back to a lot of personnel from the quarrel of the Shangtu family, and just after the old ancestor walked in again, and said to the officials: "I thought about it for a while, there is a way to tell you." Saying that, his momentum changed, and he said murderously: "Since a country can't support officials, it has to be subsidized by the family, which is really embarrassing, and you are very incompetent as a monarch." Since you are balancing again, then in this way, whoever appoints the officials will support them, and the money will be announced and distributed by the appointment, and your emperor will not make a show if he has no ability to make money, so that whoever eats and takes whoever takes will make everyone clear in their hearts. Let's see how this goes. ”

Looking at the murderous face of the old ancestor, everyone didn't dare to speak out. When the Shangtu family heard this, this is good, isn't that directly creating an opportunity for themselves to establish their prestige, so they happily agreed. Seeing that the Tujia family agreed, the old ancestor waved his hand and said, "Then it's decided." Is the staff of the superintendent fully equipped? ”

The emperor said: "It's all together, then who is in charge of these people's money." ”

The ancestor said: "Whoever is in charge." I'll take care of the three stewards I want. In addition, I will tell you that I will set the rules of the Governor's House, and I will announce it when it is over, and once it is announced, I hope you will strictly abide by it, and don't make me angry. I'm here two hours later to announce the rules, and I hope you're all here. The place where the work is done is located in the courtyard of the military headquarters, and I see that there are many rooms there, and they are very clean, so I'll see you later. ”

After finishing speaking, he led Xiao Jiu to wander away. The officials don't know what's going on today, even the ancestors who don't see each other have openly intervened in the government, and what they said is the same as playing, isn't this a blatant support for the Shangtu family to do whatever they want. Just when everyone was stunned, the people of the Shangtu family said: "Hurry up and notify the personnel of the Supervision House to come and report, so as not to displease the ancestors." As soon as everyone heard this, they hurriedly notified everywhere, and at this time the eldest brother was happy in his heart, because the people used in the court were all selected by their character and talents, and they were basically dedicated to their posts, and they would be all together in a while, and the people arranged by the Shangtu family, many of them were their own cronies, and it was difficult to gather for a while, and some were not in the city at all, and they could not be gathered in a short time.

As soon as the hour came, the old ancestor led Xiao Jiu in again, and when he saw a lot of people standing in the hall, he waved his hand and said, "The people who gave me will stand here for me." ”

I saw that the old ancestor took out a piece of paper, cleared his throat, and began to read the rules of the superintendent one by one. When they heard that they could use money to atone for their mistakes, all the officials were very shocked. But when they heard the last series of killings, everyone's faces changed color together. Hearing the strictness of the requirements for the personnel in the Supervision Academy, everyone couldn't help but smack their tongues, and when they heard the power of the Supervision Yuan, everyone opened their mouths in shock. When they heard that the officials of the various departments must be approved by the Superintendent before they were appointed, everyone was envious of the personnel of the Superintendent. When that's done, the roll call begins. At this time, there was a shortage of nearly half of the personnel, and everyone thought that the ancestor would definitely get angry, only to see the ancestor say: "Those who did not arrive today will be punished with money to atone for their sins according to the rules." Tomorrow morning, the military headquarters will assemble, and those who do not arrive will be dismissed and will never be hired. Violators are killed. After speaking, he was about to leave, and the eldest brother hurriedly said: "Ancestor, you haven't said the candidate for the manager of the superintendent of the house, we have to know who to contact in the future." As he spoke, he hurriedly pulled the old ancestor back and moved a stool. Let the ancestor sit down and bring a glass of water to the ancestor.

The old ancestor suddenly asked the eldest brother, "Do you want me to do something for me?" Seeing that the eldest brother shook his head again and again, he continued: "Okay, yes, it's you." After speaking, he said to everyone: "My old man has no money, so I will do the big steward myself." The deputy had no choice but to let the eldest prince who didn't want to do it, the other. He turned his head and looked around. Everyone said in their hearts, "You can let me do it." It's okay if you don't give money. Looking at everyone's eager eyes, he sighed and lowered his head sadly and said, "It's really a trick to have no money." I accidentally saw Xiao Jiu, who was leaning next to him and playing with the toys in his hand, clapped his hands and said, "The other deputy is you." All the officials couldn't help but be stunned.

Just before everyone understood, the old ancestor had already led Xiao Jiu away without a trace. The officials did not expect such a major matter to end as if they were playing. Many upright officials suggested to the emperor that this was not advisable, and the emperor had to persuade him to let this superintendent run for a while and see the results.

Early the next morning. In the large courtyard of the military department, the ancestor led his two deputies to wait for the officials who took office, and as soon as the hour came, they began to roll call. It's strange to say, it's surprisingly neat. After the roll call, the fines paid were checked, and then the fines were collected and the requirements were issued to the people, the requirements were very strict, and the punishment for violating the law was also quite serious. A few days later, the eldest brother proposed in a letter that the official's salary was too low, and suggested that the income be raised, but he did not say the extent of the increase, and the officials saw that this was the first letter of the eldest prince, and they were not easy to say anything, and they were all very grateful in their hearts, who can not love the money, so the book was unanimously passed, and the emperor seemed to be careless and said that this matter will be handed over to you, and the matter will be over. But then it caused a lot of fluctuations, because the height of raising the Yulu has completely exceeded everyone's expectations, it is twice as much as the original Yulu, when the Shangtu family is fully opposed, the eldest brother just said that the court has passed the proceedings, you yourself look at it, and then all the Yulu of the officials under your own control are in place. At this time, the people of the Shangtu family woke up from a dream, looking at their family's financial resources, and just paid a fine for those who did not arrive at the name of the ancestors, which is a very large expense. The cooperation between the Dasi family and himself has been cut off, and after several discussions, the Dasi family has completely surrendered to the general's disciples, and simply ignored the Tujia family. I had no choice but to find my old friend Tie and his family. In order to ensure the monopoly position of their family, it was also estimated that the forbidden army would not have much equipment to sell, so they wanted to buy it and then deliver it to the army at the supply price, from which they could earn a large part of the profits, so they started to buy it with all their might, and there is a brand new equipment, if the acquisition is stopped, it will inevitably make the entire market price fall, and cause a huge loss of their own family, so that the family is finished, the equipment acquired has become useless garbage, continue to acquire has been powerless, is angry when the people of the Shangtu family came to ask for help, when they remembered that this was all caused by the Shangtu family, what good words did they have, the two families broke up unhappily.
