If I am not a Confucian saint, I will set off a revolution

"What a big crime!"

Xingbu Shangshu was surprised: "Master Lin, the crime of deceiving the emperor is a crime of beheading. How did he offend you, Master Lin, and why is this so?"

6.

Is this rhetoric?

This kind of crime was said to have offended Lin Ke, so he was accused.

That's not the problem.

Although Lin Ke was petty, he wanted to do things well in the beginning.

At that time, if the Minister of Civil Affairs had not made it clear that he wanted to deal with him, he would not have bothered to do so many things.

To put it simply, hit with one punch to avoid a hundred punches coming.

Not only did he want to make trouble with the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Xing, but he was also going to visit the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Gods and Ghosts, and other departments.

"He didn't offend me, but he made a mistake." Lin Ke said with a smile:
"These evidences need to be quickly reviewed and convicted by the Xing tribe adults. If there is any cover-up or neglect, I will exercise the power granted by the Holy Emperor to kill first and report later. Sirs, would you like to test whether my sword is sharp?"

Lin Ke's smile revealed a hint of murderous intent.

This frightened all the Xingbu officials.

"Master Lin is so murderous." Xingbu Shangshu frowned imperceptibly: "I wonder how my Xingbu staff can cooperate with you?"

"I name a person, you find a person and kill him." Lin Ke said calmly: "If it is inconvenient for you, Xingbu, to execute the person, we, the number one butcher on Chaoyang Street, Butcher Zhang, can do it for you."

"Hey, killing monsters is not as fun as killing corrupt officials." Butcher Zhang patted his chest: "I promise to kill them one by one!"

"Just find one and convict the other?" Xingbu Shangshu's eyelids twitched, and he was about to say something else subconsciously.

But he saw Li Chungang narrowing his eyes: "Master Shangshu, do you still want to be Lin Xuanji's old party member?"

Upon hearing this, Xingbu Shangshu glanced at Li Chungang.

Li Chungang was once his subordinate, but he was too upright, so he was deliberately designed by a certain minister and sent to "stoke the hornet's nest" in a certain county.

Then Li Chungang was beaten to the end, but later he actually broke through to the realm of Confucianism, which made him look at him with suspicion.

However, precisely because Li Chungang was from the Xing tribe, he knew everything about their Xing tribe.

"Chun Gang, you..."

Xingbu Shangshu was going to say, "I will treat you well," but he thought that he had to be careful with his words at this time, so he said, "I, Xingbu, have never had any political affiliation. I only respect the Holy Emperor."

"Then now, the Holy Emperor has given me authority, why don't you help me?"

Lin Ke smiled, and then slowly shook his head: "I should have known that if one Lin Xuanji is defeated, there will be thousands of Lin Xuanjis. Corruption, corruption, and cliques for personal gain will be endless."

Lin Xuanji is just a representative figure of old rituals.

The household registration ritual system he proposed was only based on the situation at that time.

The situation at that time was that many people relied on the merits of their fathers to be lawless, and many people relied on their own merits to solidify their class.

They adhere to the concept that "the sons of dragons and dragons and phoenixes and mice can dig holes" and believe that everyone is different, but their blood inheritance is the same.

But they don't know that the concept of "dragons and dragons and phoenixes and mice's sons can dig holes" extends to the fact that all human beings have the same basic intelligence and mobility.

All mice can dig holes, just as all humans can use their hands dexterously.

Since we are all primates from birth, why should I be inferior to you?

As a result, people like Xingbu Shangshu actually have the understanding that they are superior to others. "Since you insist on obstructing me from doing things like this, I won't be polite."

Lin Ke smiled: "From now on, the Xing Department will only manage non-citizens. The supervision, conviction and execution of all officials will be handled by different departments of the Dahuang Council."

"In other words, Xing's authority has been reduced since then."

Lin Ke stood up and gestured to Wang Lin and others: "Let's go back to the official department and imprison those who are bent on personal gain and perverting the law. Well, then we will apply for a piece of land with Jing Zhaoyin to build a special prison cell."

The power of the Xing Department, like other departments, is too great.

Logically speaking, the Great Wei Dynasty should have various departments such as audit bureaus, courts, public security including prisons, judicial bureaus, supervisory bureaus, etc.

Prevent excessive concentration of power from causing corruption, forming cliques for selfish interests, etc.

However, the existence of the Holy Emperor greatly covered up the loopholes of this imperfect system.

Now, Lin Ke looked at it and discovered that the entire Wei Dynasty was actually in a state where as long as there was a Holy Emperor, the happiness index of the people would be very high.

With the Holy Emperor here, all kinds of unpleasantness, system loopholes, etc. were subconsciously ignored by people.

This is because of what the human race experienced thousands of years ago, which made the human race feel safe with the Holy Emperor around.

sense of security!
Coupled with the deliberate creation of various meritorious deeds and bureaucrats, the common people inherently feel that they are inferior and do not care at all about the issue of whether power is concentrated or not.

It is also normal for Xingbu to have the huge power of convicting, arresting and executing people in one.

Xingbu, it’s normal to arrest you and throw you away if you are found guilty.

However, it is easy to breed excessive power.

Originally, Lin Ke wanted to slowly carry out the restructuring of the Wei Dynasty later.

But now it seems that if he doesn't cure these twelve departments first, it will be even more difficult for him to do things later.

However, Lin Ke's words shocked everyone in Xingbu.

"Oh!"

Xingbu Shangshu suddenly stood up with a look of horror on his face: "Master Lin, what do you mean by this?! I, Xingbu, have been in charge of the laws, criminal laws, discipline, superstition, and ban since ancient times. What do you mean by this?" ?!”

Xingbu Shangshu's long-term cultivation of Qi has been broken, and now he wants to kill Lin Ke here on the spot.

"The power of your Xingbu was not given by others, but by the people." Lin Ke stood there and looked at Xingbu Shangshu: "When you desecrate this power, the people can take it back."

"My power is given by the Holy Emperor!" Xingbu Shangshu's face darkened: "This authority is not decided by you, only the Holy Emperor can do this. If Lord Lin really does this, then I, Xingbu, will overstep his authority. Then I will expel you..."

Xingbu Shangshu wanted to kill him on the spot, but he also knew that this was impossible.

"Oh?"

Lin Ke smiled and shook his head: "Then I will report to the Holy Emperor again and hold another court meeting? By then, all the three departments and twelve departments will undergo major changes, and the one who started it is you, Lord Shangshu."

Xingbu Shangshu suddenly took a breath of cold air.

If it was because of him that Lin Ke started another court meeting and all twelve departments were eliminated.

Then he was probably going to be beaten to death by a group of great gentlemen.

"Master Lin..."

Xingbu Shangshu sat back in his chair dejectedly and said, "How are you doing? Everyone in Xingbu looks after you."

As a result, everyone in the Xing tribe took their seats again. (End of chapter)
