The most reckless man in the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 117 Anti-corruption policy! The first fire of the Metropolitan Procuratorate!
The ministers seconded the motion and it was unanimously approved!
The Metropolitan Procuratorate gains the power of investigation!
From then on, everyone from princes and nobles to local officials and the Metropolitan Procuratorate could independently conduct investigations and arrests. Even the Dali Temple of the Ministry of Punishment had no right to intervene!
When all the dust settled, the officials dispersed.
Li Dongyang also took the opportunity to escape, but in this confrontation, he undoubtedly suffered heavy losses!
Not to mention the emperor's evil, all thirty-six of his confidants including He Tianqu were killed, which was also a fatal blow to Li Dongyang's own reputation!
The most critical thing is that Li Dongyang's political ally and confidant, Liu Daxia, Minister of War, the great Sima in charge of the world's military affairs, was directly forced to resign and become an official, and was not even allowed to leave the capital and return to his hometown!
With Liu Daxia leaving, Li Dongyang's power has plummeted!
So much so that when Mr. Li Ge left, he looked at Tang Hao with a look of hatred on his face.
This small detail was naturally noticed by Tang Hao and the little emperor.
The complacent little emperor immediately became angry and wanted to have the old thing cut into pieces on the spot.
The little emperor was startled when he heard this, but after all, he did not say anything to persuade him.
This is indeed a truth. If he didn't even have the most basic ability to recognize people, Zhang Fuhua would have been eaten to pieces by the Ming Dynasty officialdom. How could he be here today?
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Fuhua was stunned.
It is a good sign that the emperor is considerate of his ministers.
After all, Zhang Fuhua is also a veteran of the Five Dynasties. He is over 70 years old, and he still has to serve as the general constitution and preside over the overall situation. It is sad to see him.
Of course, he naturally understands the principle of "beating a tiger but not dying, but suffering from it".
In the Hongzhi court, Liu Jian succeeded Xu Pu and was promoted to the position of chief assistant in the eleventh year of Hongzhi. From then on, he began his journey to become the chief assistant of the cabinet!
You can’t push people to a dead end!
As a country of etiquette, China has a strict clothing system throughout its dynasties.
"Liu Yu is from Junzhou, Henan, and Yuan Fu is from Luoyang, Henan. Is it possible that Yuan Fu also wants to... Township Party?"
As a result, at this moment, Tang Hao was unhappy.
"Simple."
Hearing this, the little emperor and Zhang Fuhua fell silent.
In fact, the patterns on the so-called python suit, flying fish suit, bullfighting suit, and unicorn suit are essentially derivatives of the emperor's dragon robe, and the images are almost the same, including feet, claws, python patterns, etc., which are all similar to those of the emperor. The dragon robes look similar, but there are fewer of them.
The famous flying fish suit of later generations is the yearning of many passionate men.
This time we went straight to the point and got the top-notch python suit. What else do we need for a bicycle?
Seeing that Tang Hao didn't even kneel down to thank him, Zhang Fuhua was even more shocked.
Among the costumes given by the Ming Dynasty, the most famous are the python suit, flying fish suit, bullfighting suit and unicorn suit.
Tang Hao made the second point without making too many comments.
The python suit that Tang Hao has now is undoubtedly ranked number one.
"Not all Kedao officials can be as loyal to the country as Mr. Zhang. Even if they want to be loyal to the country, the prerequisite is that they must first find a way to support their families!"
However, there is a system of granting uniforms, which comes from the form of national official uniforms, but is also outside the national clothing system; it is both ethereal and virtual, and luxurious and concrete. It is a system that is not within the official clothing system, but is higher than the official clothing system. system, that is, this is the gift of submission.
Tang Hao spoke because he was indeed greedy.
"Savage, are you doing this a little... too much?"
"Tishuai also brought the person you wanted!"
"Zhang Aiqing, what do you think?"
"The second is the incentive system."
Zhang Fuhua raised his eyebrows and said solemnly: "I would like to hear the details!"
But no matter what, even if they have legitimate reasons, the problem is that whether it is Tu Xun or Liu Daxia, they are highly respected and virtuous veterans, especially Liu Daxia, who is a close confidant of the late emperor and likes to be summoned to chat with the emperor whenever they have nothing to do. The right one!
It's just that it's not the right time to attack Li Dongyang again.
Zhu Houzhao suddenly remembered something and spoke with some confusion.
In fact, it is not just Zhang Fuhua, but also Tianguan Ma Wensheng, and the chief minister of the cabinet Liu Jian. Which one of them is not gritting his teeth and persevering hard?
For a moment, the little emperor was filled with emotions, and then he looked at Tang Hao.
Han Chuang studied hard for more than ten years, took the imperial examination and entered the official career. After all, it was still difficult to escape the word "fame and wealth"!
Just like Zhongshan Hou Tang Hao said just now, even if they are really ambitious, even if they are really loyal to the country, the prerequisite is that they can support their families and feed themselves!
"Performance incentives are specific to a certain department official. For how many corrupt officials he has caught, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will give him corresponding rewards. Promotions and salary increases are all fake. It is impossible for the imperial court to set up so many high-ranking officials for this purpose, so the easiest way to motivate them is real money!"
Zhang Fuhua finally nodded in agreement.
"No need!"
Seeing this situation, Zhang Fuhua was confused and didn't understand what the monarch and his ministers had done.
After all, Liu Jian and Li Dongyang are different!
Moreover, this income is still pure income. The bonus recognized by the court and the boss is far from the gray income that comes from making money!
So, who wouldn’t be tempted?
However, this would be equivalent to completely separating the Metropolitan Procuratorate from the civil servants and gentry, and there would be no room for relaxation between the two sides!
Even Zhang Fuhua, the General Secretary in charge of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, cannot stop his supervisory censors and department officials from fighting corruption and making money!
The emperor of the Ming Dynasty exerted the emperor's favor on his ministers through the form of conferring favors, which not only demonstrated the majesty and inviolability of the imperial power, but also won over people's hearts to a certain extent and strengthened the officials' loyalty to the emperor. It was the emperor of the Ming Dynasty who consolidated the imperial power. important means and strategies.
Tang Hao was stunned when he heard this and was about to speak, but Zhang Fuhua took the lead.
The little emperor also understood and couldn't help but sigh.
"Speaking of which, the burden of reorganizing the Metropolitan Procuratorate has all fallen on the shoulders of the boss. I feel a little worried."
Suddenly, two virtuous veterans become official, which will naturally arouse criticism from both the government and the public!
"And Zhang Aiqing, you all have a share!"
How dare you, the Marquis of Zhongshan?
How can you ask for it like this?
When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he felt happy when he recalled today's hearty victory.
"Okay, okay, give it to you!"
For example, the flying fish suit of the Ming Dynasty, and the yellow mandarin jacket made of wild boar skin in the Qing Dynasty, are all this kind of service system, symbolizing the strong support of the holy family.
Hearing this, Zhang Fuhua frowned and glanced sharply at Tang Hao.
No, your Majesty has such a good temper?
After listening to Tang Hao's explanation, the little emperor also calmed down.
He had no choice but to disagree, he could only agree!
Because he also wanted to clarify the administration of officials and restore clarity to the court!
Tang Hao nodded with a smile and then asked the little emperor a question.
"Savage, Zhang Aiqing, why did Yuan Fu recommend that Liu Yu just now?"
"So, the simplest and most crude way is performance incentives!"
When the eunuch Chen Kuan heard this, he went to deliver the order with a smile.
"This strategy... is very good!"
Chen Kuan couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this. How could he reward four ministers with jade belts and python robes in one go?
"Of course there is!" Tang Hao chuckled, "It depends on whether Mr. Zhang dares to do it or not!"
"Savage, you have a lot of ideas. Is there any good way to reduce some of Zhang Aiqing's burden?"
Kedao Yanguan was originally a low-level official, and his salary was too meager to support his family. He either took bribes or went hungry with his family. Life in this capital was extremely difficult!
"So, no matter what the means, we must force him to hand it over!"
Hearing this, Zhang Fuhua chuckled and said, "Marquis Zhongshan, don't look down on this old man like me!"
Zhu Houzhao didn't just say something superficial, but told the truth.
In other words, it is no longer suitable for "chasing and fighting"!
Tang Hao explained in a deep voice.
"For example, the main work of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the future should be to arrest corrupt officials. Then the seizure of a corrupt official's home, including its real estate, fields and other properties, will be converted into stolen money of equivalent value. Each stolen money can be divided into one 20%, as the anti-corruption funds of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and as a reward for the officials handling the case, this will increase the enthusiasm of the department officials! "
"Liu Daxia has been expelled from the court, and Li Dongyang is a rootless duckweed!"
Tang Hao tried to instill the management model of later generations into the little emperor's mind.
As the saying goes, "Flying fish is not a fish, and bullfighting is not a bull." The images of both are actually creatures similar to dragons.
"First of all, those officials from the Department of Science and Technology have not been released yet and have basically been screened by the East and West Second Factory. The corrupt officials among them will naturally be transferred to the judicial department for trial. The remaining ones are all people who keep themselves clean. Mr. Zhang can use!"
"I have been living as an official for thirty years. I have no other skills, but these eyes are still bright!"
The new General Constitution Zhang Fuhua also gave some advice and completely gave up the little emperor's idea.
Zhang Fuhua was an honest man. He got the jade belt and python robe for nothing, so he immediately knelt down to thank him.
Although what Zhang Fuhua said didn't sound pleasant, he was telling the truth.
Tang Hao was always dishonest and just grinned.
This time, it was Tang Hao who stopped him.
So, faced with the temptation of this bonus, I am afraid that in the future, all scientific officials and supervisory censors will stare at those corrupt officials with wide eyes. As long as they are confirmed to be corrupt, they can rely on the Metropolitan Procuratorate's The power of independent investigation is taken by hand!
Killing a corrupt official is a huge amount of income!
"Your Majesty, has Tishuai returned to Beijing?"
Zhang Fuhua is now considered one of his own, or it is more appropriate to call him an "imperialist".
This Zhongshan Marquis is really ruthless!
If he really adopts this method, then the Metropolitan Procuratorate will really become the public enemy of Shilin!
This time, Tang Hao and the young emperor teamed up to set up a scheme to expel Liu Daxia, the Minister of War, from the court, and ordered the General Secretary of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to kill Xun and retire from office. It can be said to be a great victory!
As soon as these words came out, the little emperor suddenly realized.
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Hao saluted and left directly.
The degree of favor this Marquis of Zhongshan enjoys is far beyond ordinary people's imagination!
The little emperor stood up and helped Zhang Fuhua up with his own hands.
The little emperor's eyes flashed and he looked at Zhang Fuhua.
If Liu Jian is really like this Li Dongyang, and directly creates some kind of "Luoyang Poetry School", making friends and cultivating party members, who can stop him, and who dares to reject him?
I'm afraid that as long as Liu Jian reveals this idea, a large number of civil servants and gentry will immediately join him, willing to serve as his lackeys, Lord Yuan Fu!
It's just that after so many years, Liu Jian is still the same Liu Jian, and the cabinet has not become more prosperous!
"Your Majesty, anyone in this court may form cliques for personal gain, but Lord Yuanfu will not!"
Tang Hao opened his mouth carelessly.
Zhang Fuhua said this resolutely.
"Zhang Aiqing, don't mind!"
"Kedaoyanguan encountered a catastrophe this time. He suddenly lost the privilege of hearing and reporting, and because of his power of investigation, he was forced to be separated from the civil servants and gentry, and became the public enemy of the scholarly community. No matter what, there will be resentment in his heart, and he is against the boss People are even more resentful!”
"I have done so many things, but I haven't seen the python suit yet. Come and put it on!"
However, seeing that the little emperor was in high spirits, Chen Kuan didn't say much and went to deliver the order honestly.
"This savage doesn't understand etiquette, and I'm used to it. Don't be as knowledgeable as him!"
"You don't know how important that thing is to us and how important it is to Ming Dynasty!"
Therefore, now is not the time to continue to attack Li Dongyang, otherwise the little emperor will be stigmatized as "intolerable"!
This is human nature. Even if Zhang Fuhua did this for the Ming Dynasty, not all Kedao officials are smart people, and not everyone can be selfless. It is inevitable that they will feel resentful!
"Tang Hao, do you have a solution?"
"Ahem, Your Majesty, you can't favor one over the other!"
Having said this, Zhu Houzhao looked a little hesitant.
"came back!"
At least Mr. Zhang's eyes were red at this moment and he was on the verge of tears.
"I am very relieved that Gensuke and Lord Otsuka are loyal to the country!"
You must know that this Lord Yuanfu is the emperor's tutor to Emperor Hongzhi, and he also holds the power of cabinet voting. He is an out-and-out upstart in the court!
From then on, the official of Kedao was the official of Kedao, and the civil servants and gentry were civil servants and gentry. There was no longer any intersection between the two sides, and there was only a life-or-death feud!
This is like how the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty looked at the fierce and domineering Jin Yiwei!
The Metropolitan Procuratorate will become a sharp knife in the hands of the little emperor, and it will be a knife specifically targeted at civil servants and gentry!
Now the imperial court has finally introduced a new policy, which allows these scientific officials and supervisory censors to make money legally and legitimately. If anyone dares to stop them, they will really fight against this person!
"Since it is an incentive system, then of course real money is the most motivating thing!"
As long as you check corrupt officials, you can get rewards!
For example, in He Tianqu, there is a corruption case of 20,000 taels. One achievement is 2,000 taels, and two achievements is 4,000 taels. Everyone can share one share. The Kedao Yanguan who is in charge of this case can at least share one or two hundred taels. !
A supervisory censor has an annual salary of ninety dan, which is equivalent to ninety taels of silver if he pays a full salary. In other words, if you kill a corrupt official, you can get at least one or two years of salary. Who wouldn't be tempted?
Scholars seem to regard fame and wealth as floating clouds, but how many people can actually do it?
"It's just a matter of employment. Which people can be used, which people can be reused, and which people have other forces standing behind them? Mr. Zhang needs to make his own decisions!"
After all, since the Metropolitan Procuratorate has been separated from the civil servants and gentry, and the main target in the future is the corrupt officials and worms among these civil servants and gentry, there is naturally no room for relaxation between the two sides!
The public prosecutors of the Metropolitan Procuratorate can only hug the little emperor tightly and act as the little emperor's sword!
"He is just a bachelor of Wenyuan Pavilion. There is Lord Yuan Fu in the cabinet to suppress him. He can't make any trouble!"
"The so-called "performance" refers to the task indicators of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, such as how many corrupt officials were caught in a month. This is performance!"
The emperor's conferment is the highest honor for a minister, and it's not a big wholesale deal!
"If Mr. Yuanfu really wanted to form a party for personal gain, Hongzhi Chaotang would have been the chief minister of the cabinet long ago. Why wait until now?"
Tang Hao shook his head expressionlessly.
"Chen Dajue, add their names to the list, and the jade belt and python robes must be included!"
"Chen Kuan, issued a decree to give Yuan Fu and Otsuka Zai jade belts and python robes as a reward."
"Your Majesty, Marquis Zhongshan, this is..."
"He has become a villain!" The little emperor said with a dejected look on his face, "A villain who will do whatever it takes!"
