A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 363 Establishment of Embroidery Department
Wang Ke's previous policies allowed Daqian to recuperate, trade with the Xiongnu, and make huge profits.Daqian got many excellent horses.

Since the founding of Daqian, they have been very wary of the Huns in the north and have always attached great importance to land development within the Great Wall.

After all, there are large armies stationed near the Great Wall all year round, and the losses in the transportation of grain and grass are huge. The best way is to recruit troops nearby.Therefore, when Wang Ke was in power, he vigorously promoted farming in the north. Although it could not fully meet the needs of the border troops, it also greatly alleviated the difficulty of transporting grain and grass.

Of course, because of the bitter cold in the North, many people are reluctant to go.Even with Wang Ke's vigorous promotion, the population of the Northland is far lower than that of the Central Plains.On the contrary, Jinyang, Handan, and Chang'an have a large population.

The Xiongnu had been beaten very hard before, so they did not dare to cross the border. In addition, there was a mutual market to purchase various supplies, which allowed Daqian and the Xiongnu to have a relatively peaceful period.

However, because there was no large-scale war, the Huns not only recovered after 20 years of recuperation, but their national strength even improved due to year-round trade with each other.

Although Wang Zhuo established Tianci City, he only established a firm foothold and did not have the strength to stop the Xiongnu from obtaining technology and armor through the Western Regions.

Although no large-scale battles have broken out over the years, there have been frequent frictions on the border, and basically the Huns suffered every time.

After Wang Jing ascended the throne, with the support of Wang Zhe and Wang Ce, and his uncle Wei Wei Yang Zhao, the transition of government affairs was completed smoothly.

After taking control of the court, Wang Jing asked Wang Zhe and Wang Ce: "The late emperor once said that after I ascend the throne, I can recall those princes and nobles who have been demoted to their fiefdoms. When do you think it is appropriate to recall them?"

Since Wang Jing has decided to do big things, he naturally wants to use the nobles and nobles of the princes. At the same time, Wang Jing also needs to use these princes to balance the court.

When Wang Ke drove these people back to the fiefdom, he wanted to make them understand that their wealth, power, life, death, misfortune, and blessings were all given by the emperor. Now Wang Jing is the emperor of Daqian, the emperor who controls your life, death, misfortune, and blessings.

He can give you glory and wealth, but he can also take it away.

"Your Majesty, you can recall them to assist the government. You can first issue an edict to ask them if they realize their mistakes, and ask them to write a letter to reflect on their mistakes. If they are respectful and sincere, you can forgive them and recall them." Wang Ce said.

Wang Jing was very happy, so he sent someone to write the imperial edict and send it to the outer court to inform the world.

The imperial edict was quickly sent to the fiefdoms of the princes and princes all over the world. These princes saw the dawn of returning to Chang'an, so these princes wrote letters one after another, confessing their mistakes to the emperor, and expressing their loyalty to His Majesty the Emperor. of.

I hope the emperor will take note of their meager achievements and give them the opportunity to serve His Majesty again.

Seeing these sincere letters, Wang Jing was very emotional. For the first time, he felt the power brought by the emperor. It felt so good!
Wang Jing smiled at Wang Zhe and Wang Ce and said, "As my brother said, these princes have already submitted a letter, so let's issue an edict to order them to return to Luoyang."

After receiving the recall order, these princes were all ecstatic. You must know that the past few years after they were driven back to their fiefdoms, they had not lived well at all. They were used to being allowed to return to their hometowns to retire after taking power in Luoyang. Not many people can endure that kind of gap.

After experiencing this situation, the princes and princes who were still a little domineering became cautious one by one.After receiving the edict, all the princes and princes immediately rushed to Luoyang.

Luoyang, the capital of God.

Outside Longshou Palace, all the princes and princes stood anxiously outside the hall, waiting for the emperor to summon them.

You must know that when these princes entered the palace in the past, they would sit and drink tea in the nearby warm pavilion and wait for the servants to summon them. How could they stand outside and wait honestly like this?Have the servants of Longshou Palace ever seen such a scene?
The palace guards and chamberlains hid in corners and whispered.

Wang Jing once again returned these princes to the army and appeared in the court.After seeing these princes returning to the court, many court officials came to congratulate them, but in the blink of an eye, these princes once again returned to the bustling scene before.

It's just that these princes are very cautious and don't dare to overstep in the slightest.I was afraid that I would be kicked out of Luoyang again accidentally.

After Wang Jing came to the throne, he did not make major changes to Wang Ke's decrees and continued these systems. At the same time, trade with the vassal states became more frequent.

In addition to these, Wang Jing established a new embroidery department, which was under the direct control of the emperor. There was one embroidery captain, one embroidery chief each, and 500 embroidery envoys.Specially responsible for inspections and inspections. If any illegal issues are discovered, he can report them to the emperor or be authorized to act on his behalf.

Of course, in the beginning, these embroidery envoys only had the right to inspect and inspect, and they could only report to the emperor if they found anything illegal.

Wang Jing originally wanted to get it done in one step, but Internal Affairs Minister Wang Zhe and Wang Ce both persuaded him. He had just ascended the throne and setting up such an inspection department would likely cause shock to the court.

Wang Jing is not Wang Ke, let alone Wang Luo. He does not have the high prestige of Emperor Shi Huang and Emperor Wen. To put it simply, he has not proven himself, and those officials do not trust him.

Another thing is, I’m afraid no one wants to be monitored anytime and anywhere.

After listening to the two people's advice, Wang Jing finally took back the right of the embroidered clothes envoy to act on behalf of the emperor, leaving only the right of inspection and inspection.

At the court meeting the next day, Wang Ce submitted a letter.

"Your Majesty, because many of the inspection censors engage in illegal activities such as favoritism and malpractice, I would like to ask you to set up another supervisory agency to inspect the world. At the same time, we will supervise each other with the inspection censors. Once any illegal things are discovered, we can report them.

In this way, those patrolling censors will not dare to engage in malpractice for personal gain! "

In the past, there were only inspection censors in Daqian. After 300 years of development, many problems have arisen. Originally, the inspection censors were asked to conduct self-examination and conduct cross-inspections to prevent the occurrence of favoritism and malpractice. However, now we have found that we relied on the inspection censors to conduct self-examination. What a complete joke.

These inspection censors were in the same department, and when they found that they had problems, they turned them into major problems and resolved them internally.There is only one supervisory department in the imperial court. It is too easy for them to hide something. Absolute power will inevitably breed absolute corruption.

It is abnormal for the inspection censor to have great power but no one to supervise him!
It was only after seeing this situation that Wang Jing wanted to set up the Embroidery Envoy.

There were naturally some objections in the main hall.

"Your Majesty, you can't do this."

"Why are you worried about being found out?" Wang Jing interrupted him directly and said calmly.
