Rule the Roost in the Tang Dynasty: Three hundred and fifty-one visiting Xu Jingzong
Li Hong led the little talk that never stopped. Li Lingyue did not go back to the East Palace directly, but came to Shang Shusheng together. After going up to the court, if it were not to comfort his cautious father, it should be Li Hong made an appointment with Shangshu of Xingbu and Shangshu of Bingbu.
The Shangshu of the Xing Department is Cui Zhiwen. The cooperation with Di Renjie in the past few years is also called tacit understanding, so he has stayed in the position of Shangshu of the Xing Department and has not changed.
There are still many people who are famous in the Department of War in the Tang Dynasty. Even Pei Xingjian is still a book in the Ministry of War. It is just a name, and he does not have the post of handling the affairs of the Ministry of War. The real right is still in the book. Ya Xiang's hands.
Li Lingyue took Li Hong’s hand and stepped into Shang Shuling’s office together. The spacious office made Xiao Hua Tuo start to exclaim: "Wow, it’s bigger than my father’s study, Brother Huang, Be careful that your father troubles you."
"You've been talking all the way, aren't you thirsty?" Li Hong scratched Li Lingyue's head and asked Yang Wu to pour him a glass of water.
The little guy, with small arms and legs, sat on a large chair, and continued to look around leisurely, but surprised Ren Yaxiang and Cui Zhiwen, who had just walked in, and saw the little thing standing on the chair. When I got up, I realized that there was actually a person sitting on the chair opposite Shang Shuling's desk.
The two hurriedly saluted Xiaohua tuberculosis, and Li Lingyue didn't care, waving a little hand was regarded as greeting the two of them.
"What do you think of the bad guys in the government?" Li Hong asked straightforwardly, letting them sit down next to him and ask them sideways.
Li Lingyue occupies one of the two chairs on the opposite side of the desk, and cannot let go of life or death, so the two military officials had to sit down on two chairs far from the desk and discuss matters.
"My lord, but the bad person has caused trouble again?" Cui Zhiwen frowned. The bad person created by the first emperor was originally held by a bad person. After decades of development, it has become a common problem. Power not to be underestimated.
But it is because of the past few decades that these unscrupulous people completely regard themselves as officials, because their usual salary is too small, and they began to use their identities to start doing evil, fish and meat.
Li Hong smiled and said, “That’s not true. If this kind of thing comes to me, I’m afraid you, the Minister of Criminal Justice, should resign, but bad people are an indispensable force for the government. We are right Their binding force is very weak. Even because their salary is too low, they are allowed to levy and bully the people."
"But now it might be more inappropriate to ban them? After all, the government office still has to rely on them to detect and arrest. Without them, the government office will not have enough manpower to call, although these bad people are still some people after being requisitioned by the government. In Yurou Township, the people are oppressed, but after all, they are a minority. Now they can only be restrained and controlled after committing a crime." Cui Zhiwen is still frowning. It is not that he doesn't know the pros and cons of bad people, but he really can’t tell. A specific method that can effectively control them.
There were originally two types of catchers, catchers and fast hands. Capturing, the official service of capturing bandits. Quickly, start to capture the official service of the thief. With the evolution of history, it has slowly become the word "catching fast" among the people.
Li Hong doesn't know if Catch fast evolved from a bad person, but even after Tang, Catch fast is just like a bad person.
Even in the Qing Dynasty, the profession of catching fast was still regarded as a low-level profession, and its descendants could not take the imperial examination, even if you were talented and intelligent, even if you left the job of catching fast, Your next three generations are still not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, only the fourth generation will be allowed.
It is these professions that are not respected by people, coupled with their own character and bad deeds, will naturally cause them to break their pots, the government enslaves them, and the people despise them, thus causing They dare not deceive officials, but they dare to deceive the people.
"My lord, do you mean...?" Cui Zhiwen didn't understand. Since the function of catching fast is the same as that of a bad person, why should he change it?
"Only relying on the bad people themselves cannot turn them into an effective team. The government's control and their own constraints must exist at the same time, so that we can turn them into real catchers. What's more, bad people The three characters themselves are suspected of insulting them. Even if someone has the determination to reform and rehabilitate, I am afraid that they will give up reforming because of the bad people. Call it fast, I am afraid that would be different. "Li Hong grabbed the inkstone in Li Lingyue's hand and placed it on the table, and the little guy quickly grabbed a pen in his hand and began to scribble.
"My lord, do you want to reorganize them?" Ren Yaxiang listened quietly for a long time, and somehow understood Li Hong's meaning.
"Yes, the reform of the Ministry of Defense is imperative, and the reform of the Ministry of Penalty is also imperative. Among the bad guys, most of the young and strong can be selected to join the army, and some of the older soldiers in the army Naturally, it can be reorganized to be bad...Oh, the ranks of the catchers. In this way, I can not only supply new soldiers to Datang, but also improve my own quality with the help of veteran soldiers. Isn’t it the best of both worlds? As for the salary, it is completely. It can be equivalent to the soldier's salary set by the Ministry of War. Now Datang has money. It depends on whether you will spend it and whether it can be spent on the blade." Li Honghao said leisurely.
But I don’t know. The Bingbu Shangshu and Xingbu Shangshu looked at each other, and at the same time they slandered in their hearts: Yes, Datang doesn’t have money left now. Even if you go to Qujiangchi to participate in the poem meeting, With 1.8 million taels of pocket money, Datang Fuyu is really rich.
As for how to reorganize the details between the capture and recruitment, it is of course not the job of Li Hong, the Shang Shuling. What he has to do is to point out the direction to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Justice, and then it will depend on their work efficiency.
Li Lingyue was dragged out of Shang Shuling’s study, and the two slowly went to the East Palace. Li Lingyue saw that everyone was fresh along the way, especially when she mentioned Bai Chun, the little mouth started. Shouted: "When I grow up, I will also be as beautiful as Bai Chun."
Li Hong is too lazy to pay attention to her, as long as you grow up, as long as you don't harm the country or the people, you are a first-class beauty in history, and Shangguan Wan'er is not a good thing.
"Your Highness, a secret letter from King Xu." Jingzhe appeared in the East Palace, holding a secret letter from Li Sujie in his hand.
Li Hong took a random check. This is the second time this month. It seems that the situation is more serious than Li Hong thought.
"Tell him I know, let him be careful, don’t be caught by others and frame him." Li Hong glanced at the short secret letter, then closed it and held it in his hand. The old high.
Li Lingyue in front of me has been trying to reach the letter. She is very curious about what is written in it that can make the emperor's face serious.
Before going to Taiyi City, when Li Hong passed by Xu Jingzong's home, he asked Xu Yanbo to accompany him to visit Xu Jingzong.
Although the old guy is sitting on a recliner, he looks good, but he can't walk freely, so he is confined at home.
"The old minister did not expect that he wanted Yanbo to serve his Royal Highness like an old minister, but he did not expect that after several years in Anxi, he would become a veritable general." Xu Jingzong was pale. The hair was a bit messy, and he said with a trace of regret.
"Why? Don't even Xu Jingzong think that generals are as noble as civil servants? Is it possible to discredit your Xu family's tomb?" Li Hong said unceremoniously, "Xu Jingzong, it's not that I said you, your whole life, Just thinking about how to improve Xu's false name, even if your Xu surname can be compared with the five surnames and seven families? How about the Jinyang Wang family, now you can't hold your head up among the people of the world, you live For the rest of my life, I still don’t understand how old I am, but my fame is nothing but a beautiful flower."
"But people have left their names, and geese have left their voices. The old minister has worked hard all his life. He has done so much for my Datang and my Xu surname. I don’t want to work hard for a lifetime. Xu’s surname is still a small surname. Your Highness, The veteran knew that you had never been ashamed of Jingzong's behavior~IndoMTL.com~ From when you forcibly pulled the veteran from the queen to the East Palace, and shackles the veteran’s mind, the veteran knew that he would never see Xu's name becoming a famous person in this life. Noble family, but the veteran didn’t give up, Xu Yanbo was also upbeat. He is also a motivated and eager student in the Hongwenguan. If you don’t go to Anxi with you, it’s not impossible to come here today..."
"Yes, coupled with the secret help of your age-old man, Xu Yanbo's career can be said to be smooth sailing, but why do you recommend him to accompany me to Anxi? What calculations are you making? I was calculated by you again?" Li Hong asked curiously.
Xu Jingzong smiled lonely. Now, he closes his eyes one day and never opens again, so he is not so restrained when he is angry.
I smiled weakly and said: "When you went to Qujiangchi, you met Wang Bo and Yang Jiong, including the two Luo Bin Wang and Lu Zhaolin you met, especially Wang Bo, did not leave you a good impression, and You have always thought that this person is too utilitarian, so the old minister wondered if Xu Yanbo could show up in front of you to attract your attention. After all, Xu Yanbo and Wang Bo are not the same kind of people."
"You really know how to take advantage of it, so you strongly recommend your grandson to use it for me, hoping to draw my attention with his talent? But then again, how do you know that I value Wang Bo in the first place? "Li Hong was very puzzled. He did have expectations for Wang Bo at the beginning, but when he gave up Chongwenguan for official career, he decided to return to his hometown to participate in the imperial examination or be recommended by the family, so he gave up on him.
In this short period of time, supposedly no one would have noticed that he had once hit Wang Bo's idea. But this age-old big yin person, like the roundworm in his stomach, knew exactly what he was thinking.
