Eighth year of Chongzhen
Chapter 609
Chapter 609
The first thing to do now is to deal with the people involved in the attacking official case, which is matched with the issue of filling vacancies for officials in Songjiang Prefecture and its counties.
Sun Chuanting's memorial has not yet been delivered, and it is estimated that the situation in Mingzhou (Ningbo) is not much better than that in Songjiang Mansion.
Since the chief officials at all levels of the huge Songjiang Mansion were swept away this time, Songjiang Mansion has been in a temporary state of anarchy.
Due to the fear of losing control in various places, Lu Xiangsheng ran among the counties, and quickly promoted the directors and inspectors who were not involved in the incident in the county government to be officials, temporarily controlling the situation in each county, and he himself sat in Songjiang Prefecture to handle it. Various daily duties.
As for the vacancies of officials at all levels in Songjiang Prefecture, Zhu Youjian decided to follow the old path of the past few years, and transferred officials with outstanding performance from various prefectures in Shaanxi to go south to take office.
Practice over the past few years has proved that a large number of officials with a pragmatic style have emerged among the officials of various prefectures and counties in Shaanxi through personal participation in daily land reclamation, digging wells and repairing canals. The down-to-earth atmosphere has been fully recognized by officials at all levels in Shaanxi.
In Zhu Youjian's plan, pragmatic and hard-working officials from all over the country, as well as technical officials in the Ministry of Industry and Households, will be reused, and the positions vacated by them will be replaced by officials with outstanding performance at the next level. As a result, a virtuous circle was gradually formed in the entire officialdom of Ming Dynasty until it completely occupied the mainstream position after a few years.
The circle of this virtuous circle is not limited to officials, but also includes many officials without fame, and those old-fashioned bureaucrats who only know how to recite the wind and enjoy the moon, recite poems and compose fu to become officials and lords will be completely marginalized in the future.
Their official status will not be removed, but the yamen they will serve will be Taipu Temple, Guanglu Temple, Honglu Temple and other ministries. There will be no shortage of salaries, but almost no power.
In fact, from the perspective of Zhu Youjian's original intention, the absence of Ming officials will not have much impact on society. In his long-term plan, a small government and a big society are the most ideal state.
In the future, the government of the Ming Dynasty will transform into a service-oriented government, and the setting of the Yamen will be inclined to public services and emergency management, and the cultivation of talents in the future will also focus on this direction.
For thousands of years, I don't know how many unknown people have been lost in the long river of history. Among them, there are even more outstanding talents. They don't lack abilities, but they lack platforms and environments for them to display.
Just like myself, I was just an extremely ordinary person in my previous life. If I didn't time travel, I would only live an extremely ordinary life all my life, marry a wife and have children, and then spend my whole life living in daily necessities.I would never have imagined that I would be able to achieve what I am today after time travelling.
Ordinary but not mediocre, maybe this is the portrayal of most people's life.
After considering the allocation of officials, Zhu Youjian focused his attention on another aspect.
From Jin Yiwei's report, Zhu Youjian discovered a problem that he had ignored before: private slaves.
There were nearly 4000 private slaves kept by the four sea merchants involved in the case, and those who attacked and killed officials were selected from this group of people, and these people were not listed in the government's household registration books at all.
And raising private slaves is a very common phenomenon in the Jiangnan area. From the perspective of an emperor, this kind of hidden power is absolutely not allowed to exist.
People with money but no power are not scary.
This group is the largest.
In fact, they only want to live their own lives, and have no thoughts or ambitions of doing evil. They are also very docile in their daily performance.
It's different for those who are rich and powerful like the four big merchants.
Because this kind of people have tasted the great convenience brought by power, they consciously or unconsciously began to develop their own power after the rapid expansion of their wealth, hoping to use this to achieve more and greater demands of themselves.
When one day their vital interests are harmed, they, who feel that they have huge power, are likely to take desperate actions, and they will not consider whether their risky actions will bring much harm to society.
This is extremely dangerous, and Zhu Youjian will never tolerate it.
If these private slaves have weapons in their hands, and their masters are not short of money and food, once they unite for a certain common interest, although there is no risk of endangering the country, it is still impossible to smash the prosperous and prosperous Jiangnan. questionable.
Now that this problem has been discovered, this time it is time to take advantage of the situation and solve it together to eliminate these potential unstable factors.
Since Zhu Youjian had already characterized the incident as treason, this time he took the opportunity to kill and deter the possible resistance of Jiangnan interest groups.
From the eighth year of Chongzhen to the present, although Jin Yiwei was ordered to ransack countless homes, not many people were executed in the end. Zhu Youjian did not order the indiscriminate killing of the family members of the perpetrators. The old, weak, women and children all ended up in exile.
However, due to the background behind the attack on officials, it was when Zhu Youjian was preparing to carry out drastic reforms, so the relevant personnel involved in this incident unfortunately became flag sacrificers.
Gu, Lu, Xu, and Zhou openly sent people to attack and kill court officials, and their behavior was a heinous crime; the four families secretly kept private slaves, concealed weapons, and had wrong intentions. Unexpectedly, he was involved too much, so he sentenced the three tribes of barbarians.
The four private slaves were handed over to the local government for registration, and from the confiscated land, [-] mu of each land was allocated for them to work and support their families.
Private slaves kept by private individuals in various places in the south of the Yangtze River will be dismissed this time. Anyone who dares to resist, regardless of their family background, will be punished as having misconduct.
Xie Ruyun, the magistrate of Songjiang Prefecture, Huang Shengju, the general judge, Geng Yuanren, the procurator, and the officials involved in the case from various counties received the favor of the emperor and did not want to repay them. , Confiscation of family property.
The rest of the prefectures and counties were punished with the same crime.
Dressed in brocade clothes, the criminals and their family members were escorted to the three mansions of Susong and Changzhou. On the basis of each household, the execution was carried out in the downtown area every day until all the criminals were executed.
This article was specially added by Zhu Youjian at the end of the imperial decree, in order to warn those in the south of the Yangtze River who disobeyed the imperial order: If there are any more people with ulterior motives, this will be the fate of your whole family.
Since this case is a treason case, the four surnames of the sea merchants and the three tribes of the barbarians, plus the rest, can involve thousands of people. Calculated by beheading a family every day, the land of the three prefectures will also have to be killed for ten days. half moon.
I believe that after the execution is over, the bloody scene will become a lingering nightmare in the hearts of a few people for a long time. When the imperial decree comes, if they want to resist it according to the habit they have developed for 200 years, then they have to weigh it. How many people in the family have been separated.
If Sun Chuanting's investigation is completed, it will be executed accordingly. The three most prosperous places in Hangjiahu are the execution grounds.
Thanks to Zhao Yuanxi, Venus for the graphics card, Warming Wine and Killing General i, book friend 20200122110228002 for the reward.
I pushed the book "Seizing the World at the End of Ming Dynasty", and those who rebelled in Ming Dynasty, if I came across them, they would be wiped out immediately.
Recently, the epidemic has been a bit serious. Several cases have been confirmed near where I live, and there are many close contacts.
