Chapter 193: Rectifying Local Officials

In fact, Cao Zhize saw the good side of the officials.

How many people lose themselves in front of gold and silver.

For the sake of personal greed, he disregarded the country and the people.

Crazy and greedy for things that do not belong to you.

Finally became a sinner in history.

So when Situ Jin invested a large amount of gold and silver in various places.

The selection of outstanding talents has also begun.

Few local officials were clean. When they heard that the prince was punishing local officials, they were in danger.

Situ Jin himself was a soldier.

So, he reported to the emperor that the world was now at peace. The newly promoted military officers could go to the border to train. Guard the four borders of Mobei. Exercise their patriotic feelings. Give them a chance.

Let those old soldiers return to the local areas to stabilize the local economy, give them important tasks, and send civil officials to assist them.

This is a major change, leaving many officials with no chance to take advantage of.

In the past, officials protected each other. Now, all levels supervise and check each other.

The treatment is generous. There are certain reward policies for officials at each level.

For example, provincial officials who have achieved extraordinary performance according to local economic conditions will be given the opportunity to be promoted. Their children will enjoy lifelong salaries. Their salaries will also double that of the previous year. They will also be awarded fiefs.

Officials of the prefectures and other places who have achieved extraordinary results according to the local economic situation will be given the opportunity to be promoted. Their children will have the opportunity to enjoy a lifetime salary. The emperor will personally reward them and grant them fiefdoms.

There are various honors and rewards from the emperor at the county and township levels.

But if you are considered a corrupt official by the public, you will bear certain responsibilities. The responsibilities borne at each level are different.

Once such a measure was implemented, officials lost their greed and worked wholeheartedly for the people.

Situ Jin and Xia Luo stayed in Hangzhou for three days.

He returned to Kyoto as quickly as possible.

There are three days left until the day of marriage.

In ancient times, the jiji ceremony for girls refers to the coming-of-age ceremony held when a girl reaches the age of 15. In traditional culture, the jiji ceremony is a very grand ceremony with a high degree of ritual and symbolic significance, reflecting the society's emphasis on and respect for women. The jiji ceremony marks the transition of a girl from childhood to adulthood, and also symbolizes the prosperity of the family and the continuation of offspring.

Girls are considered adults at the age of 15. At this age, they will tie their hair and put a hairpin through it, indicating that they have reached the age to get married.

The ceremony of coming of age is solemn and complicated, including welcoming guests, taking seats, opening the ceremony, the person coming of age taking seats, the guest washing hands, the first addition, the first bow, the second addition, the second bow, the third addition, the third bow, placing wine and offering sacrifices.

In ancient times, the coming-of-age ceremony for women had important significance. It not only symbolized a woman’s adulthood, but also represented the inheritance of family and marriage concepts.

Charlotte knew nothing about this.

Back at the village, Charlotte was surrounded by his family.

They all came to discuss the matter of coming of age.

Situ Jin went to the palace. National affairs are important.

He would report the measures to rectify officials to the emperor and send officials to implement them and conduct on-site inspections.

We need to appoint responsible officials, and then allocate funds to local agencies.

Seeing my son coming back from a long journey, he brought a lot of good news.

The emperor was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

As a father, he felt deeply honored that his son had to worry about his own country.

The son has always been ambiguous about the decision on the succession to the throne.

Maybe it was the trip to Southeast Asia that changed my mind.

The emperor hoped that Situ Jin would inherit the throne in the future.

Inform his ministers to attend court early tomorrow morning.

No leave was allowed. Ministers who were sick had to be carried to the main hall.

The ministers didn't know what imperial decree the emperor was going to announce.

So early in the morning, all the ministers came to the hall.

Waiting for the emperor to come to the morning court. But I saw the prince also came to the morning court.

They were all worried. As long as the prince came to court, the emperor would punish some people.

"The emperor is here!" Xiao Dezi shouted.

The emperor slowly sat on the dragon throne in the Golden Palace.

"Long live the Emperor! Long live! Long live the Emperor!"

"Everyone loves you!"

"My dear ministers, I asked you all to come here today because I have important matters to discuss. Listen carefully. If it involves someone's management scope, please report it. Do not conceal it. Do not omit it. Do not deceive your superiors or your subordinates. If there is anyone who violates the law, he will be punished."

"Xiao Dezi, come one province at a time." Xiao Dezi listed who was in charge of the officials in each province.

It was discovered that most of the people in the province under the jurisdiction of the responsible official were his own confidants and family members.

Xiao Dezi appointed officials from the Ministry of Revenue to recommend people to be under their jurisdiction.

All the appointed officials should be finalized.

Situ Jin also worked with the Ministry of Revenue to finalize suitable officials for the positions.

You will take office soon.

All the civil officials who took office served as deputies to the military officers who came down from the front lines.

Assist them in managing local economic development.

The military commanders who came down came to the local areas, were promoted to higher positions and given fiefs.

If there is a war, they will immediately return to the front line and continue to command the soldiers to fight bravely.

In this way, Ye Xiuxiu became the governor of the southern Xinjiang region, and he was assisted by the current university scholar.

Yu Zhenhang became the governor of the northern border region, and he was assisted by Shangqing.

Xiang Rong became the governor of the coastal area, and his assistant was Zuo Tu.

Zhang Jierui became the governor of Beihai, and he was assisted by the military secretary.

Yu Zhenyu continued to be the governor of Western Xinjiang, and he was assisted by the Privy Councilor.

And so on. There are thirteen governors-general. Thirteen military officers are assigned to each governor-general, with one civilian official.

The newly crowned top scorers in both civil and military affairs were assigned to the following positions.

They went to experience the suffering of the people in various places. They worked as advisors and recorders for various governors' offices. They worked as field investigators. Those with excellent performance had the possibility of being promoted to higher positions.

Rotation every three years.

From then on, ministers were sent to serve in local areas.

Only in this way can you have the opportunity to be promoted.

Moreover, after three years, it is possible that the civil officials will become the superiors of the military officials. All officials will try their best to please each other, check and restrict each other.

When Situ Jin proposed this plan, the emperor applauded.

And there is no need to use money from the national treasury.

Not only did it boost the economy.

Officials in various provinces do not have to worry about whether they are embezzling things that do not belong to them.

The emperor is the one who reaps the benefits. Why not?

When Situ Jin transferred a large amount of gold to the national treasury and used it for its intended purpose.

The emperor was so amazed by the generosity of Situ Jin and Xia Luo that he was speechless.

My son and daughter-in-law are really good at making money.

The treasury was filled with gold.

I’m so tired of writing all the household registration documents.

It was Charlotte's coming of age.

There was still a lot of silver in Charlotte Space that she hadn't had the chance to take out, so she asked Situ Jin to discuss it with the emperor.

The day of coming of age is a great auspicious occasion. Let the emperor issue an order.

All the people in the capital city had a day off on this day and went to the government office to receive one ounce of silver and five catties of rice.

Beef, mutton, pork and chicken products were sold at low prices in the name of the emperor.

Let the people have meat on their tables. Grant amnesty to the world. Let the emperor be a good man.

There is food, drink and money to spend. No one is a fool.

The Crown Princess came of age. The Emperor gave the Crown Princess's coming of age ceremony great importance and respect.

Let the people of the capital be grateful for the selfless love of the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess.
