Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 507 Retiring Inspector General
On the second day of the military-political conference, Lin Chuan submitted to the emperor his formal resignation from the position of chief inspector, which was regarded as officially resigning from the post of chief inspector.

The Supervisory Office has been established for less than a year, but under the helm of Lin Chuan, it has developed rapidly. Its branches have spread all over the Far East Dynasty, and it has become the iron-blooded organization that officials at all levels fear the most.

According to the law of the dynasty, officials at all levels are supervised by the officials at the higher level, and they are assessed on time every year.

However, with the passage of time, the relationship between officials at all levels has become intricate, and the original supervisory system has existed in name only. Local governance is a mess.

A very important part of the reason that the Far Eastern Dynasty has become so riddled with holes is the existence of these corrupt officials.

The emperor hoped to change this situation and restore political clarity, so he set up the Supervision Office, which had great powers. All officials who corrupted the law, no matter whether they were nobles or powerful ministers, could not escape the fate of being arrested.

The Office of Supervision carried out Lin Chuan's vigorous and resolute actions, showed no mercy to those arrogant nobles, and showed no mercy to corrupt officials. There was only one word - kill!

According to incomplete statistics, in just half a year, no less than 2 officials died in the Supervision Office, thousands of meritorious nobles, and even more people were implicated.

Wherever the Supervision Office went, people's heads rolled and blood flowed like a river. For a while, bloody horror shrouded the sky over the dynasty. Although the officials and nobles were terrified, the poor and poor people celebrated with each other and strongly supported the Supervision Office.

After half a year of purge operations, the entire Far Eastern Dynasty, both nobles and officials, were sifted through the sieve. Anyone with problems was either killed or arrested. It was precisely because of this iron-blooded wrist that the Supervision Office helped the emperor quickly take control of the political power. .

The name of the Supervision Office also rose to fame in just half a year, and it became an institution that everyone in the dynasty knew. However, the existence of the Supervision Office was extremely controversial.

The important officials of the dynasty and the aristocratic families strongly opposed the bloody violence of the Supervision Office and demanded the abolition of the Supervision Office, but the people at the bottom became staunch supporters of the Supervision Office.

The conflict between the nobles of the Far Eastern dynasty and the poor at the bottom is well manifested in the Supervisory Office, but the emperor needs the Supervisory Office to stabilize the situation, so the Supervisory Office can exist, but now the affairs of the dynasty are on the right track, although the supervision may not be cancelled. Office, it is definitely necessary to limit the Office of Supervision.

Lin Chuan had a foresight long ago. Instead of waiting for the emperor to restrict the power of the Supervisory Office, it is better to restrict it himself. This is the way to retreat and survive for a long time.

"General, what kind of supervisory office is it if you leave your supervisory office, and I will follow you."

In the conference room of the Office of Supervision, Lin Chuan was having a handover ceremony with Liu Zichen, the new chief inspector. The supervisors sat down silently, and Junker couldn't bear the dull atmosphere, so he stood up and spoke first.

"Yes, General, I have been following you since [-]. I will go wherever you go."

"General, it doesn't make sense for us to stay in the Supervision Office after you leave. Take us with you."

"Yes, General, we will go with you."

In the conference room, the inspectors who were hand-picked by Lin Chuan were agitated and asked to follow Lin Chuan.

Liu Zichen, the new chief inspector, was embarrassed. Although he was Lin Chuan's deputy and presided over the work of the Supervision Office when Lin Chuan was not there, his personality was not as good as Lin Chuan's.

Seeing the supervisors clamoring to follow him, Lin Chuan scolded with a sullen face: "Sit down!"

Lin Chuan has been in a high position for a long time, and he has an untouchable majesty. Facing his cold drink, the noisy conference room suddenly fell silent.

"What do you all want to do? Is it because I'm leaving and I can't control you anymore?" Lin Chuan asked with a straight face when he saw the inspectors who hadn't sat down.

"No, no, General, you misunderstood." Inspector Jun Ke hurriedly waved to the others: "Sit down, sit down."

Seeing Lin Chuan getting angry, everyone returned to their seats wisely, but their hearts were full of grievances, which could be seen from their faces.

The meeting room suddenly heard the sound of a needle being dropped quietly, and everyone dared not show their anger. They hadn't seen Lin Chuan lose his temper for a long time, and they were very scared.

Seeing these inspectors sitting on pins and needles, the anger in Lin Chuan's heart was like a discouraged ball, and it was completely vented. They are all loyal subordinates to him, and his face softened.

"You are all old people who have followed me for many years. I, Lin Chuan, followed me in the Southern and Northern Wars and sacrificed blood. I, Lin Chuan, still remember that I didn't abandon the big guys. How nice it is to be in the Supervision Office. You don't have to go to battle to kill the enemy, and you don't have to bleed to fight!" Life, why don't you know how to enjoy it?" Lin Chuan's tone became calm.

Hearing Lin Chuan's narration, the inspectors calmed down. Thinking of those countless days of bloody battles and those dead brothers, some people's eyes flickered.

Junker stood up and raised his head and said stubbornly: "But General, we just want to follow you and continue to serve you."

"Sit down first," Lin Chuan pressed his hands down and said, "The number of soldiers in the First Corps of our Nanchuan Army is more than [-] at least. Tell me, if I go, you will follow me. I will go home." Sleeping with my wife, then I will be ashamed to see people."

"Hahaha" the inspectors laughed, and the oppressive atmosphere in the conference room was relaxed.

"Then we will stand guard for you, general." Someone said.

Lin Chuan waved his hand: "No, no, no, there are at most ten people standing in front of my door. How can you stand there with so many people? Besides, I am not a big nobleman. How can I have so much money to pay your salaries, so absolutely not."

Lin Chuan said earnestly: "Although I am no longer the inspector general, I will not disappear, and I have not left you. I still live in Wangjing. You can come to me for a drink when you are free."

"Besides, when I go to deal with refugees in the future, I will need help from you old brothers. If you all follow me, I will need help from the Supervision Office. I can't find anyone. What do you think? ?”

The inspectors were not fools to be promoted by Lin Chuan, and they nodded thoughtfully.

"So, you should continue to treat me well in the Supervisory Office and make some achievements, let the world see that my brothers in Lin Chuan are not cowards, if I have difficulties, you all stand up and help me, you Tell me how proud I am."

Hearing Lin Chuan's earnest explanation, Liu Zichen also stood up and said in a timely manner: "Brothers, we are all old people who follow the general. Although the general is no longer in the supervisory office, the supervisory office is still surnamed Lin. The general guards here, you say okay!"

"Okay, let's guard this place for the general." The inspectors finally figured it out and shouted one after another.

Jiang Mingyue, the person in charge of the Supervision Department, hastily made a booing gesture: "They are all my own brothers. It's okay to say it here. If these words come out of this door, don't say any more, so as not to cause trouble. The Supervision Department belongs to His Majesty, understand?" ?”

"Understood." Everyone understood.

"Okay, from now on, everyone must listen to Zichen, don't disobey orders, obey yin and yang."

The inspectors responded in unison: "I obey the general."

"Go back to work, don't affect work."

After all the inspectors had left, Lin Chuan pulled Liu Zichen aside to explain some important matters. Among them, he voluntarily applied to limit the rights of the Supervisory Office. After all, if the Supervisory Office wants to survive for a long time, it is not good to have too much power.

"Your Majesty will definitely send someone to take up an important position in the Supervisory Office. Don't refuse, you can also decentralize power appropriately, but the core department must be firmly controlled. If there is anything you can discuss with Jiang Mingyue, don't come to me often, so as not to dissatisfy His Majesty."

Liu Zichen nodded and wrote down what Lin Chuan said.
