Rebirth Interstellar Peak View

Chapter 61 The Guardian
"Donate an official?" First Young Master Lu was stunned.

Immediately afterwards, he shook his head: "Impossible, where is there any matter of donating officials in the Daheng Dynasty? Official titles are not granted privately, it is a deadly rule."

Lei Yundong smiled and said: "I'm speaking bluntly, it doesn't look like donating an official, but it is actually a donating an official."

"Where is such a thing, if there is such a thing, it won't be a shock!" Lu First Young Master curled his lips.

Lei Yundong smiled, Young Master Lu still cared about this point, the reason is very simple, he is a scholar, this is an identity that was obtained after a lot of hard work, and it is also the basis for entering the officialdom and starting as a subordinate.

Without this identity, there is no way to get in.

And what does such a person hate the most?
Naturally, it is to donate an official. You only need to spend money, and you will immediately become a heavenly person, and immediately ride on the heads of these subordinates to shit and pee.

This is a super huge insult and blow to those who are proud of their imperial examination status and have worked hard to climb the officialdom.

After all, who the hell doesn't have money!If you can become an official if you have money, wouldn't the youth you have wasted, the people and affairs you gave up for this be all in vain?

"Actually, this is not a hidden news. It has been circulated in other places. Judging by brother Xian's appearance, there is no such thing in Sanbao County." Lei Yundong said.

"What?! This matter of donating officials actually exists outside?! How is this possible! Those officials who came from the imperial examinations won't be impeached?!" Young Master Lu stared directly at Lei Yundong.

"It's not the kind of regular official that brother Xian thinks." Lei Yundong laughed.

First Young Master Lu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words: "It's not an official official, it's better." But he became suspicious again: "Could it be the subordinate officials of various palaces? It shouldn't be, any palace dares to sell the official position privately, I'm afraid You will be impeached by the imperial censor directly to the point of death! Moreover, the official position in the palace is not very useful, and it is completely useless outside the fiefdom of the palace. If the officialdom does not recognize it, who will buy it."

Lei Yundong scratched his head, seeing First Young Master Lu's appearance, it was obvious that he didn't know about these things.

But think about it, this is Sanbao County, just a county, and no one really thinks about it.

"Brother Xian, let's put it this way, does the Lu family know anyone in charge of the guard?" Lei Yundong asked.

"Guardian?!" Young Master Lu came to his senses, "You mean, you want to go the way of the Weisuo and buy the officials of the Weisuo?"

Seeing Lei Yundong nodding, First Young Master Lu hurriedly dissuaded him: "My dear brother, don't be overthinking it! Why do you want to be an officer in the guard! The soldiers of the guard are not even as good as tenant farmers, they are directly the slaves of the officers of the guard. what!"

"What's more, once the household registration is changed, the descendants will not be able to get out of the household registration. They have been members of the guard for generations, and they have been trapped in the guard for generations. Isn't it good for us to be a member of parliament and live a chic life? Even if If you want to take an official career, you can also go to the exam to become a scholar, wouldn't it be better to work together with brother Yu to climb the officialdom?"

"Absolutely not! Don't take the official route of the guard!" Young Master Lu eagerly dissuaded him.

Seeing Young Master Lu's sincerity, Lei Yundong was a little relieved, of course he knew that the guard house was now the garbage and poisonous pus of the Daheng Dynasty.

In fact, the Weisuo was a very effective ruling system at the beginning.

When occupying a planet, the Daheng Dynasty directly set up guards on the planet, picked up the population to allocate land, and fixed all the personnel and materials of the guards in one place.

To put it bluntly, the guard needs to be responsible for reclaiming wasteland, multiplying the population, and resisting and eliminating surrounding dangers.It is a military institution that maintains stability, expands, and strengthens the foundation.

It can be said that most of the vast territory under the Daheng Dynasty's current command was developed by the guard.

At that time, the Weisuo, holding military power, fertile land, and population, was almost a complete independent military group with self-supply and sustainable development.

So such an organization will naturally start to become too big to lose.

Then the Daheng Dynasty came up with a reform of the guards, that is, directly stripping the land and population of the guards to establish a government, or directly turning the guard into a government.

But in this way, the officers in the guards are useless. After all, they belong to the level of military households. The ordinary military households below can be directly converted to civilians, but military officers cannot be directly converted to civilian officials.

The officers of the guards are happy to be civil servants, but the civil servants are not willing to be robbed of their positions as literati by these big bosses.

Therefore, after some disputes and internal strife, even after the riots, all the establishments of the guards remained intact, but most of the land and population of the guards were divided among the local government.

In the past, the government was still qualified to give pointers to the guards and even issue orders.

But after that overall division, the jurisdiction of the guards was directly under the emperor, and even the cabinet chiefs had no right to command and order.

It has completely become an institution directly under the rule of the imperial power, just like the Xiuyiwei.

At first, the emperor was full of joy, because he had gathered all the guards in the whole country into the palm of his hand.

Considering the sheer number of guards, it's exciting when the numbers pop up.

But after investigating the current situation, the emperor would have a headache as soon as the number of the guard came out.

Simple, the world has been at peace for a long time, and the places where the guards are located have all become the administrative planets of the Daheng Dynasty. The guards are all trapped in the boundaries of various government offices, unable to expand, and there is no danger.

There is no way to develop, but there is no need to worry about food and clothing, and there will be no danger. This is exactly the situation of raising pigs.

So the guards directly turned into pig farms, and each officer was well-fed, but the soldiers below were miserable, and there were many fleeing households.

It may be strange here, the entire planet belongs to the Daheng Dynasty, is there any enemy, where can this soldier escape?

It's simple, just go to the government and settle down.

The government controlled by civil servants is eager to absorb all the population of the guard.

Chasing escapees?You can't even get out of the border of the guard!

sue?Sue to whom?

The six ministries and the five temples are all civil servants in power. Who dares to speak out after being taught many times?

Sue the emperor?

Believe it or not, launch an impeachment bombing by the speaker, so that the emperor must punish the person who complained?
Naturally, the officers of the guards who had been beaten to death had no choice but to put down their flags and drums. On the one hand, they strictly controlled the soldiers and military households under their command.

On the other hand, they began to collude with the aborigines to do business.At least the status of an official is useful in many cases, at least the subordinates who control the power at the lower level have to give the official face.

Therefore, the emperor who took over all the guards found that there were not a single soldier in the roster, and all the officers were useless. Not only could the guards not bring him benefits, but they would only devour them.

If it can be abolished, the emperor will definitely abolish them all in one go.

But obviously it can't be done, the network of relationships is so dense that it even connects to the emperor's harem, princes, and royal family.

So the emperor just threw the guard aside and ignored it.

Abandoned by the emperor, and at the same time abandoned by the court controlled by the civil service system.

The guard immediately became an existence that grandma didn't love and uncle didn't love.

It is not that the people of insight in the guard do not want to restore the function of the guard.

But unfortunately, because the guards became useless, the government directly used the method of recruiting soldiers to form a battalion to be responsible for suppressing bandits and resisting invasions.

Shengsheng turned the army of the Daheng Dynasty, which was originally responsible for military supplies and equipment, into all the soldiers who needed materials, food and salaries allocated by their superiors.

Of course, the civil servants liked it very much, because there were people who owned all the fields in the front line and had ordnance manufacturing, and they didn't ask for help.

The civil servants of the imperial court had little to do with the guards at that time.

Now that he has become a soldier who needs to be allocated all supplies, the court officials are naturally very good at handling such force.

Therefore, we tried our best to suppress the guards, supported the battalion soldiers, and finally let the battalion soldiers snatch away all the military power of the guards.

The promising people who managed the guards wanted to make a difference, only by jumping out of the trap of the guards could they achieve it.

Over time, although the guard was not completely forgotten, it has also become a stink pile that everyone avoids.

Young Master Lu is a scholar, of course he knows these things, seeing that Lei Yundong is going to jump into this cesspit, out of the intention of a friend and as an investment target, of course he wants to stop Lei Yundong.
