The censorship yamen is not only the censorship yamen in Bianjing, but all prefectures have censorship yamen.
There are tens of thousands of officials and as many as 100,000 small officials.
Everyone who occupies a hole in the yamen must receive a salary.
Coupled with the public expenses required by the censorship officials at all levels to do errands, a large amount of money is spent every month.
Now that the money has been saved, it can naturally make up for the vacancy of the court.
Although the time for the criminal division's dismissal is still short, some places where the emperor is far away from the mountains may have just received news.
However, the censorship department was dismissed, and the official documents for deduction of the censorship secretary's salary have been issued to various comfort ambassadors, responsible for various comforts, and Guangou comforts.
They would naturally follow the imperial court’s intentions and intercept the salaries that were issued to all levels of criminal officials.
The salaries intercepted from various places have been slowly escorted to the city of Bianjing. The salaries of the few roads closest to the city of Bianjing have been escorted into Beijing, and the salaries of other roads are still on the way.
Although they have not yet arrived in Bianjing, the third division and the Ministry of Households have already settled the accounts.
After Li Di finished his work, Wang Zeng couldn't help but sighed: "Just a month's salary can make up for the vacancy of the upper court. If this is a year's salary, there will be a surplus in the treasury. It's fine to mention the penalty department. correct."
When the officials of the Sixth Department heard this, they nodded vigorously.
They had the advantage of being dismissed from the Criminal Division, so they naturally had to stand up for Wang Zeng's words.
Wang Qinruo smiled and said, "If the censorship department was ousted earlier, the surplus in the treasury would probably be more."
Wang Qinruo did not seem to be pessimistic at all in the election to participate in political affairs, but instead he interjected lightly.
What he said is a bit of unnecessary suspicion.
But no one took his words as deaf ears.
Like Wang Qinruo, a veteran who has been in the court for many years, every word he said in the court is full of profound meaning.
Whether he can guess the meaning of his words depends on the officialdom.
Kou Ji didn’t know how to be an official, but he understood what Wang Qinruo said. A slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said loudly: "Wang Libu means that there are too many yamen like the criminal secretary in the court. Count. If we can stop as soon as possible, the money in the national treasury will inevitably pile up like a mountain."
The voice fell, and the smile on Wang Qinruo's face froze.
He stared at Kou Ji in amazement.
That's what he meant by what he said just now.
The reason for the vague reminder is that he is unwilling to cause trouble.
He wanted to see if the stunned young man could hear the meaning of his words, and popped out to pierce this layer of window paper.
But he didn't expect that the person who jumped out was Kou Ji, and what was even more unexpected was that Kou Ji sold him clean on the spot.
Wang Qinruo stared at Kou Ji for a long time, his old face was a little red. He saw that all civil and military officials looked at him, and hurriedly explained: "My colleagues, the old man definitely didn't mean that, that's all Kou Jihu guessed. "
In the court, there are countless yamen with duplicating powers like mentioning the criminal department, but the six departments are cheap, but the other departments and yamen haven't gotten any advantage, and there is even a bit of sadness for the death of rabbits and foxes.
Nowadays, these people are arrogant. If they really listen to Kou Ji's words, it is hard to guarantee that they will not attack Wang Qinruo.
Not long after Wang Qinruo returned to Beijing, he didn't want to be driven out of Bianjing again.
After hearing Wang Qinruo's explanation, the Manchu civil and military officers looked at Kou Ji together.
Kou Ji was not as hypocritical as Wang Qinruo. He faced the Manchu civil and military and said frankly: "I think there is nothing wrong with the words of Wang Libu. Like Sansi and Sanya, their powers are more than the same as that of Liubu. One piece. If two yamen take care of the matter, one yamen must be free.
The imperial court will give out an extra salary if there is an extra shack.
This salary is not distributed to one or two people, but to a large number of people.
After careful calculation, this is a big expense.
Since the imperial court used the money to support the idlers, it would be better to put it into practice.
For example, building water conservancy projects, dredging channels, building dams, and strengthening armaments.
No matter how bad, it is better to renovate the loneliness garden and six disease museums in various places than to raise idlers. "
Kou Ji's words fell to the ground, and the expressions on the faces of the civil and military men of the Manchu Dynasty were different.
His remarks obviously touched the interests of many officials.
Someone began to retort on the spot: "Every time the court sends out a salary, it can support one person. Now maybe they are idle, but when it is useful, they will definitely contribute to the court."
Kou Ji groped for the chaohu in his hand, shook his head and smiled: "A scholar? What is a scholar? Read a book or two and you can be called a scholar? Or can someone from a scholarly family be called a scholar? Or can you be called a scholar after you get the fame?"
"Is not it?"
Someone questioned it on the spot.
Kou Ji tucked the Chaohuo into his cuff, looked at the person who questioned him, and sneered: "Then you look at the soldiers too cheap. Do you know the twentieth-level military merit system of the Pre-Qin Dynasty?"
No one answered Kou Ji's question.
Because people who can stand on the Hanging Arch Hall are familiar with history.
They naturally understood the twentieth-level military merit system of the pre-Qin period.
Kou Ji asked himself and replied: "In the pre-Qin twentieth-level military merit system, the fifth grade is a doctor, and those who are not with the state-owned meritorious service are not tolerated. That is to say, a scholar who can be used by the country with the state-owned meritorious service is worthy of being called a scholar. Those who are scholars deserve to be called scholar-officials.
Otherwise, even if you study for a hundred years and are full of splendor and cannot be used by the country, you still cannot be called a scholar.
Those with low learning can be called Confucian scholars, and those with advanced learning can be called great Confucians, but they cannot be called scholars. "
Someone cursed in court: "Nonsense, slanderous."
"otherwise!"
Someone spoke out and supported Kou Ji, "I think Kou Ji's words are reasonable. Only a scholar who can serve the country is worthy of being a scholar, and a survivor who cannot serve the country. No matter how knowledgeable he is, he is just a scholar.
The imperial court should raise the right taxis that can be used by the country. Not those scholars who are empty and talented but are unwilling to contribute to the country. "
"The words are reasonable and cannot be used by the country. Who are they?"
"..."
There is manpower to support Kou Ji, which is expected by Kou Ji.
The spread of Kou Ji's rhetoric will certainly offend a large number of scholars, but he has made friends with another group of scholars.
Those who are offended are scholars who are not yet scholars, but those who have become scholars are friends.
Once the imperial court followed Kou Ji's remarks and set a new delineation for scholars, many people would be drawn out of the ranks of scholars.
But on the other hand, the status of the surviving scholars will be infinitely elevated, and they will become more precious.
After all, things are precious.
Among the ten scholars, there is a scholar, which is not very precious. But there is one scholar among the hundred scholars, so this scholar is particularly precious.
Someone in the court clamored for Kou Ji, and it is estimated that this was the same thought.
Kou Jier listened to the quarrel between the civil and military courts in the court, and continued: "Therefore, the court should raise scholars who can serve the country. Not those scholars who claim to be scholars but are unwilling to contribute to the court.
Some scholars call themselves scholars after gaining fame.
They held the royal salary for nothing, but were unwilling to do anything for the court. They spent the whole day lingering in the wind, the snow and the moon, the fireworks and willow alleys, and they squandered the salary that the court gave them.
People like this should be cleared out of the court, and when they are willing to contribute to the country, it will not be too late to recall them. "
Kou Ji stared at the Manchu civil and military, and said loudly and loudly: "Every royal salary is taken from the people. This kind of people eats and wears, but they don’t think about doing things for the people, they only think about their own glory. Riches.
I just want to ask this kind of people. When you were stuck in the land of the fireworks and willow alleys, in order to get into the boudoirs of those oirans, when you spent a lot of money, did you ever think that the money in your hands was the blood and sweat of the common people? Here
The official family still knows that every meal in the palace is nothing but the people's cares, and they dare not waste the slightest.
Not only did you fail to learn the frugality of the official family, but also spent extravagantly outside.
In the end, are you embarrassed to lick the book on your face and give it to the officials to persuade them to be frugal? "
When Zhao Zhen heard this, he couldn't help but straightened up, straightened his chest, and looked proud.
Kou Ji yelled: "Like such brazen people, are you embarrassed to call them scholars? Are you embarrassed to let the court raise you? I'm pooh!"
After scolding, Kou Ji said coldly: "If such a brazen person is worthy of being called a scholar and worthy of being supported by the court, then I would rather you call me a commoner.
I am ashamed to be with such people. "
Kou Ji's words fell to the ground, and the civil and military men of the whole court had a gloomy face, closed his mouth and said nothing.
Kou Ji said that the idlers who were supported by the imperial court scolded the individual for incompleteness.
"The people you speak of are just a small part of them, and they don't represent everyone."
Some people are dissatisfied with the excuse.
Kou Ji sneered when he heard this, "Dare you open the mansion and let me check it?"
When the man heard this, he immediately shut his mouth and stopped talking.
He dared not let Kojicha because he was not clean.
Like Li Di, the upright and honest officials recognized by the court, have received valuable gifts, not to mention him.
If the set of criminal laws for the treatment of corrupt officials established by Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty were transferred to the Great Song Dynasty Hall, one of the Manchu civil and military officials would be counted as one, and they would have to be stripped and used as grass.
It's not that the Great Song Dynasty Hall was full of corrupt officials.
The main reason is that since the founding of the country, the Song court has been very relaxed in this regard.
As long as it is not the kind of embezzlement that shocks the government and the public, the court will generally not go into it.
For example, the late Prime Minister Zhao Pu, he was notorious for corruption.
And when he was embezzling and accepting bribes, he was hit by Emperor Taizu Zhao Kuangyin on the spot.
Just this, Zhao Kuangyin only dismissed his aspect, but did not kill him.
After Emperor Taizong Zhao Guangyi ascended the throne, he jumped and became the prime minister again.
With this predecessor as an example, the officials in the Great Song Dynasty didn't pay much attention to this aspect.
After Kou Ji's voice fell, there was silence on the Hanging Arch Hall.
After a long time, Li Di suddenly said: "Kou boy, the old man is willing to open the mansion and let you check it!"
Kou Ji smiled and said, "Grandpa Li invites him, so the kid naturally has to go to the house to ask for trouble."
"Hahaha..."
Li Di laughed loudly.
Kou Ji also laughed.
At this moment, there are only two of the Manchu civil and military, who can be proud of the court.
Li Di, Kou Ji also.
This scene was deeply imprinted in the minds of everyone in the court.
In the future, when the government and the opposition mentioned the words "just honest and clean", they would inevitably mention them.
Liu E frowned and stared at both of them. When they were about to laugh, he slowly said, "Li Di, Kou Ji, have you made enough trouble? Manchu civil and military, how can it be as unbearable as you say ?"
Kou Zhun said indifferently from the side: "It's almost the same..."
Liu E raised Feng's eyebrows and glanced at Kou Zhun.
The old God Kou Zhun was here and said: "Before all things, you can forget about the past, and then you should strictly investigate. Otherwise, if things go on like this, the people will think that my Great Song Dynasty Hall is a place where dirt and dirt are hidden."
Liu E gritted his teeth and stared at Kou Zhun, and asked, "Who will check?"
Before Kou Zhun could speak, Liu E's eyes fell on Li Di and Kou Ji, and he said in a deep voice: "According to Kou Ji's words, the Manchu civil and military, only him and Li Di are two clean people. Are they going to investigate?"
Hearing this, Kou Zhun glanced at Liu E.
Liu E is helping Kou Ji and Li Dila in a disguised form of hatred.
How could Kou Zhun make him wish.
Kou Zhun said indifferently: "Let Lu Yijian check it out. If he can handle this errand well, he will enter the inner court."
To investigate corruption, we must also investigate all the corruption in the world, not every three to five years.
After Lu Yijian finished investigating the corruption, three to five years passed.
At that time, the inner court will inevitably be free.
Even though Xiang Minzhong's old man had served as a political affair, the manchurian civil and martial artist knew what his body was.
Even if he is a member of the political affairs, he can stay in the position of political participation for at most three to five years.
After three to five years, if there is no other people to blend in, it is inevitable that Lu Yijian will be in the top position.
Kou Zhun was just pushing the boat along the river, and by the way, he gave Lv Yijian his hatred.
Liu E can naturally see Kou Zhun's thoughts, and she immediately retorted: "It's not right, Lu Yijian still needs to know Sansi."
"The minister leads the decree!"
As soon as Liu E's voice fell, Lu Yijian left the class, bowed his hands and shouted.
Liu E looked at Lu Yijian in astonishment.
She didn't understand why Lu Yijian didn't discuss with herself, so she agreed to this matter.
This is obviously a matter of hatred, and Lu Yijian is actually willing to abandon the high-ranking three divisions and take over this matter.
After the consternation, Liu E looked angry.
Without concealing her anger, she stared at Lu Yijian and roared: "Do you know what you are talking about? The Aijia will give you a quarter of an hour to take back your words."
Lu Yijian arched his hands and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "The minister is willing to patrol everywhere, clean up the courts and the public, and return the people of Song Dynasty a bright future."
"bass!"
Liu E stood up suddenly and shouted fiercely: "Lu Yijian!"
As her person, Lu Yijian violated her meaning, which made Liu E very annoyed.
Once Lu Yijian left the three divisions, and the three divisions took the position, it was bound to enter a new competition.
It's hard to say whether Sansi can be controlled by him at that time.
After all, since she was regent with Kou Zhun, most of the things that Kou Zhun wanted to do were done.
But nothing she wanted to do.
