Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 594 The juniors won't cause public outrage, right? (4 more than [-])
Gao Yushi never thought that he would one day be a censor.

When he was studying history in his previous life, he always had a prejudice, thinking that ninety-nine percent of the officials in ancient China's dynasties were useless. They all claimed to be clean, and they only knew how to spout this and that, but in fact they couldn't do anything. , It is a waste of court salary.

It's really a good reincarnation, this time it's his turn to be the speaker.

The location of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is neither like the cabinet nor the sixth division, it is in Miyagi.It is also not like the Dudu Mansion of the Five Ministries and the Five Armies and the Hanlin Academy, which are located on the left and right sides of the Chengtian Gate and Daming Gate, but are located alone in Fucaifang in the southwest of Beicheng.

Oh, it’s actually not lonely, because there is the Dali Temple to the south of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Ministry of Punishment on the left—the Ministry of Criminal Justice is not located together with the other five ministries, but is arranged here, forming the famous "" Three Jurisdictions".

In the Ming Dynasty, the Ministry of Punishment replaced Dali Temple to take charge of the main trial business, and Dali Temple became the Punishment Authority, mainly managing the refutation and redress of unjust and wrong cases.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate is the most detached. It can not only supervise the judicial organs, but also has extensive powers to supervise all levels and types of yamen across the country.

Theoretically speaking, the Metropolitan Procuratorate oversees the entire Ming Dynasty officialdom without distinction between civil and military affairs, and the brave censor even oversees the emperor and the emperor's servants - of course, this is a bit dangerous, and it generally depends on the emperor's temper.

When encountering a benevolent monarch like Longqing, supervising the emperor is a serious matter, and it is nothing more than demoting a foreign post. Basically, his head is still safe; It's not surprising to be beaten to death, and even Ling Chi is hard to say.

At present, the emperor has not formally taken charge of the government, and the supervision of him by the Metropolitan Procuratorate is not strict for the time being. In fact, the power to supervise the emperor is currently in the hands of the cabinet.

Moreover, the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Sixth Division have recruited many Gao Gong disciples since the Gao Gong era. Of course, this is to control the way of speech, and there is nothing worth explaining. After working in the household department for two or three years to clean Zhang Tianmu, because he offended too many people, he was also transferred to Zuodu censor, replacing Gao Gong's old friend Ge Shouli, the purpose is still to control the way of speech.

At a critical moment like the implementation of the New Deal, Gao Gong needs to speak out, at least not to jump out and make trouble.Guo Pu also held the same attitude after he took over as the chief assistant. Since most of Gao Gong's former students were promoted, he promoted some of the students he accepted when he presided over the examination in the second year of Wanli to join the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

So in theory, in the current Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Gao Party or the Real School Party has the upper hand.

Gao Yushi came to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to take up his new post, and first received a new certificate, waist badge, and official uniform.

When he got the official uniform, Gao Yushi was a little bit dumbfounded. Although the fifth to seventh ranks all wore blue official uniforms, he was wearing a heron patch two days ago, and a white pheasant patch a day ago, and today he changed into a green patch. Xiezhi Buzi.

Within three days, the patch on his chest changed continuously, and there was no one else.

The person who received Gao Yushi today was an acquaintance of his, named Xu Yixing, a student of Guo Pu who was born in the top [-] Jinshi in the second year of Wanli.Xu Yixing is from Shandong, he is quite tall, but very elegant.

When he met Gao Yushi, he acted quite affectionately, and introduced him to various offices of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but he did not take Gao Yushi to his office, but took him to see Wang Guoguang directly.

Gao Wushi was a little surprised by this move, thinking that I am new to report, shouldn't I arrange an "office" for me first?Although there are more than 100 seventh-rank censors in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and it must be the collective office of the Dagongfang, but at least I have to arrange a table for me first. Why do you just go to see the Zuodu censor first?

When he met Wang Guoguang, Gao Wushi was even more surprised.As soon as Wang Guoguang saw him, he asked Xu Yixing to go out to do his own business first, and then asked Gao Yushi to sit down.

Next, Wang Guoguang said: "Seeking the truth, you should be able to guess the reason for this demotion, so I won't say much else, I will only tell you one thing: The Empress Dowager Rensheng has explained, let me The cabinet will take care of it, don't really criticize you too much."

The relationship between Gao Yushi and Queen Mother Chen was somewhat understood by the upper echelons of the Gao Party, but not in detail, so Wang Guoguang did not explain it too carefully.

Of course, I must be grateful for the high pragmatic face.

After the high-level and pragmatic expression of loyalty, Wang Guoguang said again: "You also know that as a rule, all newly elected censors must be sentenced for half a year in the Metropolitan Procuratorate or have a trial job for one year before the actual award. After the period expires, The imperial censor of the capital examines, writes down the comments, and then sends them back to the Ministry of Officials with the comments. But you made an exception this time, because the Queen Mother has explained it, and the cabinet also took care of it. The Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Officials It’s just a special matter, and I’ll directly call you as the censor.”

Gao Yushi has been struggling with this matter since yesterday, because it may affect his reputation. He tentatively asked: "If this is the case, will it cause an uproar between the government and the public, thinking that Yuanfu and the chief constitution are acting unfairly?"

"Not to mention." Wang Guoguang sighed: "There are two reasons. First, your demotion is directly related to the emperor's criminal edict. It is not surprising that you have special treatment; second, you Although he is a modern scholar, he has served in the Imperial Academy before. Although he has not served a full term, he compiled the "Da Ming Hui Dian" in just three months, and was promoted to two ranks with the merits of the chief department's compilation. His background and his ability to handle affairs are all attracting the attention of the government and the public, so he is naturally not a newly appointed official, and it is not inappropriate to demote the imperial censor."

After listening to his analysis, Gao Wushi felt a little relieved.

Unexpectedly, Wang Guoguang's next words raised his heart again, Wang Guoguang said: "If you want to talk about things that may cause disturbances in the government and the public, there are actually... Yuanfu and I have discussed it, because the Empress Dowager Cisheng Request, I have to send you a foreign mission quickly. But at present, there are people in all the missions, and only one Guangxi inspector, Hu You, will be vacant soon-his mother just passed away, and he wants to rush back to his original hometown, Ding Muyou. However, he is already on his way back to his hometown. There are a lot of troubles in Guangxi now, and even soldiers are still being used. How can there be no patrols? So this matter can’t be delayed. I was thinking about candidates, so don’t think about it this time. Letting you go, just kills two birds with one stone."

Gao Wushi was taken aback, almost broke out in a cold sweat, and said anxiously: "How important is a provincial tour, I am a new scholar, and it is already an exception to be transferred to the imperial history. In the past? Besides, the imperial court has regulations. People from the north don’t visit the south, and people from the south don’t visit the north, so as not to be ignorant of the customs…”

"How come I don't know what you said?" Wang Guoguang smiled wryly, "There must also be dispatches to be sent. Now there are dispatches from all over the country. The latest one that can be adjusted will be at the beginning of next year... What do you think of mercy?" Can the Holy Queen bear with you until next year?"

Gao Wushi swallowed, then let out a long breath, looked at Wang Guoguang and said, "Although Guangxi has been in chaos for many years, this is a provincial patrol after all! President, the younger generation will not cause public outrage Bar?"

Wang Guoguang got up and patted him on the shoulder: "If you do well, you won't be afraid."
