Zhenguan Han-in-law

Chapter 801
Li Shimin saw that the ministers below did not respond, so he asked Ma Zhou, but Ma Zhou did not dare to answer, so many ministers did not agree,
Moreover, even Fang Xuanling and the others are like this, so how dare I speak, then Li Shimin looked at Sun Fujia, and Sun Fujia immediately bowed his hands to Li Shimin and said: "It's up to your Majesty to decide, after all, this matter involves a lot , you still need to think more about it!"

"Shen Yong!" Seeing that he didn't respond, Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao again.

"Ah?" Wei Hao looked up at Li Shimin and said.

"You wrote the memorial. I think this matter is very necessary. Can you explain it clearly to those ministers?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Hao and continued, this matter can only be resolved by Wei Hao .

"Father, the memorial was written by the ministers, but it still needs the consent of the ministers. I don't know why the ministers disagree. The Overwatch Council has been arrested before. Now those who enter are all newcomers. develop their business capabilities,

The following county magistrates need to be reviewed. Before the review of those county magistrates, they heard the report and went to investigate. Moreover, the county magistrates in many places have not been reviewed for more than ten years, and they know it at all. What is the magistrate of this place like?Have you considered it for the common people? I hope you will consider this matter! " Wei Hao stood up and said to those ministers.

"Hey, Wei Hao, those county magistrates are pretty good now, if they go to investigate, I'm afraid it will cause panic. Of course, we also know that there must be corrupt officials, so we still have to follow the clues. The censorship is, if the censorship is carried out on a large scale, it will not be good news for those county magistrates!" Wei Zheng stood up and said to Wei Hao.

"Well, but after the review, we have a general understanding of the county magistrates across the country, and we will be able to better promote those county magistrates at that time, instead of letting those county magistrates sit on a vegetarian diet, such as the current Chang'an county magistrate , In one year, it is estimated that the corrupted money will not be less than 20 yuan,
The money lost from him will not be less than 50 yuan. If it is not because of the land acquisition, it may take three to five years to find out. By then, the court will lose a lot, so this matter still needs to be done well in advance It is! " Wei Hao continued to say to those ministers.

At this time, Fang Xuanling stood up, cupped his hands to Li Shimin and said, "This matter probably needs to be discussed. In my opinion, it's better for the ministers to write a memorial to refute Shen Yong's memorial. That's it." We can also find the loopholes in Shenyong's memorial, and we can improve it better!"

"Well, that's right. Ministers should write a memorial to this matter within three days. If there is no big objection by then, then implement it!" Li Shimin nodded and said

Knowing that those ministers are still unwilling to agree, so now we can only wait and see, Li Shimin thinks it is necessary, now the aristocratic family still controls the officials below, Li Shimin also wants to make some out, arrange those poor families, let They do things for the court.

"Yes!" All the ministers stood up and cupped their hands.

"Okay, Sanchao, Shenyong, Fang Aiqing, Gao Ming, come to my study!" Li Shimin stood up and said, those ministers also bowed their hands again and sent Li Shimin away respectfully, while Wei Hao waited for them to leave In the future, it is also ready to go up.

"Shen Yong, what are you going to do?" Wei Zheng grabbed Wei Hao at this moment and said.

"Didn't do anything, what's the matter, I don't understand, why are you against it, what's the relationship with the investigation of those county magistrates, if there is no problem, they can still be promoted, if there is a problem, they can be directly arrested at that time!" Wei Hao looked at them and asked in confusion.

"Shen Yong, you don't know anything about this matter. How can the county magistrates below be investigated so easily? Think about it, those county magistrates in Jingzhao Mansion are basically from your Du Wei family. If they don't come, it will be difficult to manage well,
The same is true for other places. They are all the children of the local prominent families, of course the county magistrates. Of course, the children of the aristocratic families also went there, but they also made deals with the famous families. Otherwise, our court sent those children to the local area to work. You can’t even start it, you check it now, but it offended many people, many local prominent families! "Wei Zheng explained to Wei Hao.

"Huh? Is there such a thing?" Wei Hao heard and asked Wei Zheng.

"That's right, the county magistrates of Wei Hao's Jingzhao Mansion can only be served by your two families. If the children of your two families don't serve, they won't be able to work at all!" Fang Xuanling was also standing beside Wei Hao at the moment. Said.

"Well, if they are corrupt, we can't investigate?" Wei Hao looked at them and continued to ask.

"Of course it can be investigated, but there must be evidence. But you don't have evidence now. You want to investigate nationwide. For them, this will be stopped.
In addition, as an official, who dares to say that there is nothing wrong with him? If you have the evidence, it will be troublesome for promotion at that time. Therefore, they will not easily allow you to check the accounts. To oppose you, but you can't do this, if you do, the following must be messed up! "Wei Zheng also looked at Wei Hao and said with a wry smile.

"There is such a thing, the court has not been able to find out the situation of those officials? Originally, I meant that after I went to investigate, it was time to transfer the officials. You have also seen now, how many young people are here, There are hundreds of people here, and it is estimated that there are less than 20 young people, what will we do when you people step down? The court needs talents!" Wei Hao looked at them and continued.

"Yes, yes!" Fang Xuanling heard, nodded and said.

"What's more, if we don't know the situation of the officials below, how to mobilize them. In addition, they have been serving as county magistrates in one place, or exchanging county magistrates with each other. Are they serving as officials for those famous families, or for It is also very serious for people to be officials, and the reason why many places cannot develop is because those county magistrates, prefects, and prefects don’t do anything!" Wei Hao looked at them and continued.

"Shen Yong, we all know what you said!" Wei Zheng looked at Wei Hao with a wry smile at the moment, and then continued: "You don't know the situation below, you will know when you go to other places more often!"

"Well, I will go. The Overwatch Council must establish its authority!" Wei Hao nodded and said.

"Shen Yong, let's go, go to His Majesty's side. It's not good to keep His Majesty waiting too long!" Fang Xuanling immediately said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao smiled and bowed his hands to the other officials, and then went out,

On the stairs, Fang Xuanling whispered to Wei Hao; "You are right, the county magistrates below are about to move, and now those county magistrates are basically fixed, and those aristocratic families especially control more , but it is very difficult to tear a hole in this matter, those ministers dare not agree, even the old man is hesitating!"

"Well, that's it? Haven't you checked it all the time? Now that our Tang Dynasty has so much taxation and people's lives are good, the court also provides a lot of local subsidies. If you don't check it, there will inevitably be a lot of corruption. Once the officials come out, once the habit is formed, it will be difficult to change it when the time comes.

Therefore, this matter can only be done sooner rather than later. Moreover, the Overwatch Council really needs to be trained and has authority. If there is no authority, who will care about the investigation by the Overwatch Council? "Wei Hao followed Fang Xuanling and said, Fang Xuanling nodded when he heard it, knowing that Wei Hao was right, but there was too much resistance to move now.

"What are you afraid of? Just check it out. I don't believe it. There can still be chaos at the bottom. Now the court has a lot of officials in reserve. If those prominent families should not act in accordance with the law, then let them be punished. The family can clean it up." , I don’t believe that those famous families can’t take care of them anymore?” Wei Hao continued talking later.

"That's what I said, I guess His Majesty also thinks the same way, but this year is really difficult. You know, there is no money everywhere, and money was mobilized from Luoyang. This time, my Tang Dynasty The loss was huge, mainly because the casualties were too great, and the expedition cost a lot of supplies!" Fang Xuanling continued to say to Wei Hao,

Wei Hao nodded and he knew about it, but what's the use of talking about it now, it's already happened.

"Forget it, listen to your majesty, it will probably be difficult to succeed in this matter!" Fang Xuanling said to Wei Hao, Wei Hao didn't speak either, because he had already reached the fifth floor,

Soon, they arrived at Li Shimin's study. Li Shimin was sitting there making tea and looking at the scenery outside the city.

"I have seen Father (Your Majesty)" Wei Hao and Fang Xuanling went over and saluted.

"Come and sit down and drink tea!" Li Shimin immediately smiled and said to the two of them, Li Chengqian was also sitting beside him.

"Tell me, what do you think of today's incident?" Li Shimin then looked at them and asked.

"Difficult, the place is very involved, I'm afraid it's not easy to implement! All investigations, it must not work!" Fang Xuanling immediately said to Li Shimin.

"Where's Shen Yong?" Li Shimin immediately looked at Wei Hao.

"I'm surprised, father, I wrote the memorial to you, it's my own idea, but why did you announce it in the court? We, the Overwatch Council, are doing this slowly, and now you are ordering me to I don't have so many people to investigate all!" Wei Hao also expressed his thoughts at this moment,
I just had this idea, but it is still difficult to implement it now, so I talked to Li Shimin first. Unexpectedly, Li Shimin read it directly at the court.
