Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1909 Starting from Chang'an

The matter of investigating the officials was handed over to Qin Tian.

After hearing this, all the officials were shocked. Of course, they were more worried.

Qin Tian is in charge of this matter. The current Qin Tian is very stern and selfless. If this is the case, their life will be difficult in the future, right?
At this time, Qin Tian smiled wryly.

It is a good thing for the court to investigate the officials of the court, but he has no intention of doing this by himself. After all, if he does this, he will offend many people.

But who let him replace this matter?
The sins I made by myself, I have to eat even when I am crying and tired.

There is no other way, Qin Tian can only accept orders.

After talking about these things, the early court was almost done, and Li Shimin announced his withdrawal from the court.

However, after retiring from the court, Qin Tian did not leave in a hurry, but came to the imperial study.

Seeing that Qin Tian didn't leave, Li Shimin was a little curious, so he ordered the imperial chef to prepare some side dishes, and then asked Qin Tian to stay.

The two of them sat and ate together. It had been a long time since the two of them had a meal like this.

The dishes are very ordinary dishes, but they are all very delicious.

The two of them were eating, Li Shimin asked: "Qin Aiqing came to the Yushufang to look for me, but what's the matter?"

Qin Tian nodded and said, "Your Majesty, I have some ideas about investigating the court officials, and I want to talk to you about it."

"Oh, what does Qin Aiqing think, just say it."

Qin Tiandao: "It's like this. I want to start the investigation of officials in Chang'an City. After all, if there is no investigation in Chang'an City, I am afraid that many things below will not be easy to do. If Chang'an City can be successfully investigated, other places will That's easy to say."

Many things will go more smoothly if they are difficult before they are easy.

And for something like this, if the officials in Chang'an City obediently cooperate, who would dare not cooperate with those local officials?

Li Shimin also understood this truth, so after listening to it, he didn't hesitate much, and nodded in agreement.

"There is no problem with this, you continue to talk."

"Yes, and there is a lot of people needed for the investigation of officials. I'm afraid it's not enough to rely on people from the Jingzhao Mansion. I want to set up a Jinyi Guard for the Holy One, which is responsible for supervising the officials, and this Jin Yiwei only obeys orders. For Your Majesty, what's more, they can also be responsible for His Majesty's safety."

The emperor has the emperor's pro-army, and the emperor's pro-army is only responsible for the affairs of the emperor, and does not do other things. The Jinyiwei mentioned by Qin Tian also has the duty of supervision, which is equivalent to saying that Yushitai and the pro-army Combined it.

But at the same time there is a difference, that is, although the people in Yushitai impeach this and that in the court every day, most of them will involve interests, so their impeachment must involve some personal roots, or It's partisan.

In this case, the authenticity of their impeachment content is very suspicious.

But Jin Yiwei will not be like this, they only have one master, that is Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, they only obey the emperor's orders, so that everything they inquire about is true, and will not be mixed with any falsehood. Or other elements of interest are in it.

The reason why the emperor of the Ming Dynasty liked to use Jinyiwei was because of this.

Qin Tian told Li Shimin about Jin Yiwei's situation. After Li Shimin heard it, he couldn't help being shocked. Doesn't this mean that he has many more eyes, so he can stare at those officials at any time?
If that's the case, let's see who dares to have any disagreements with Datang.

However, after listening to it, Li Shimin did not immediately agree. The Tang Dynasty is different from the Ming Dynasty. Although the imperial power has been centralized, the concentration of the Tang Dynasty is different from that of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor of the Tang Dynasty still needs to deal with many things. Think about the impact, and you can't just do one thing based on personal hobbies.

Suddenly there is a Jinyiwei in the court, who is in charge of supervising the officials, and the officials are not allowed to blow their hair. The officials are supervised every day. I am afraid that this life will be difficult?

However, everyone has some voyeurism, and Li Shimin is no exception. Thinking that he can know who's situation he wants to know, he couldn't help being excited.

Li Shimin was a bit torn between establishing Jinyiwei and not establishing Jinyiwei, but after struggling for a while, he had already made a decision.

"Qin Aiqing's suggestion is good, then you can make a charter for the situation of Jinyiwei."

Qin Tian quickly responded, and then continued: "In order to ensure that officials will not be impersonated by others, I am going to get an ID card for every official in Datang. With this thing, no one can impersonate. "

Hearing the ID card, Li Shimin was a little curious and asked, "What is an ID card?"

"This is similar to Luyin, but it is different. Luyin only writes a person's identity and address, but there is no portrait. On the ID card, I am going to put some portraits on it, so that when officials arrive at the place, they can see Just by looking at the portrait on the ID card, you can know whether the person is the person himself or not, while the Ministry of Household Affairs keeps a copy of each official’s ID card, which is also convenient for comparison.”

The ID card that Qin Tian said is similar to the ID card of later generations. After listening to it, Li Shimin thought it was a good thing. With an ID card, it would be difficult for others to pretend to be it. After all, the portraits are different.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin nodded again.

The monarch and his subjects were eating, and Qin Tian muttered some suggestions of his own. After talking like this, the meal was almost finished.

And Qin Tian didn't stay longer in the palace, he hurried down to make preparations.

Naturally, there is no rush to form Jinyiwei, so he only needs to list out the charter and so on, and then Li Shimin can do it slowly.

There is no rush for the ID card, because it is a very large matter, and it has to be done slowly.

All he can do now is to send people to investigate the officials of Chang'an City after returning, so as to get a general understanding of these officials, and then punish those who are vegetarians and have bad character. .

This matter is not a difficult matter for the yamen servants of Jingzhao Mansion. Many officials are well-known. To know how they are, just ask a little bit. Do some officials have any political achievements, and have they made any mistakes during their tenure? , It's also easy to inquire.

Maybe, it's not easy to inquire about some officials taking bribes, or doing things for others.

To put it bluntly, Qin Tian was hunting tigers, and he wanted to beat all the tigers in Chang'an City.

And after the yamen servants of Jingzhao Mansion were dispatched in this way, the whole Chang'an City suddenly became panicked.
