Because he has not entered the system in modern times, Wei Bao knows very little about the assessment of modern officialdom.

He also has no interest in knowing how modern times do it.

Because, in the year 1625 that we are now, not long ago was the era of Zhang Juzheng.

In terms of assessing officials and eliminating redundant officials and redundant personnel, Zhang Juzheng has done a good job and made achievements.

Wei Bao felt that it was enough to copy Zhang Juzheng's test method.

The examination method is an assessment system in ancient China, the purpose of which is to pay attention to the effectiveness of the assessment work and improve the efficiency. The founder is Zhang Juzheng.

Zhang Juzheng asked the executive to put forward the famous examination method in internal affairs, and the policy was "respect for sovereignty, the duties of officials, rewards and punishments, and Order No. 1".

We should abolish redundant officials and redundant personnel in government agencies, and rectify postal and public administration. In the end, Myojin Sect approved his request.

Wei Bao's current banner is not to abolish redundant officials and redundant personnel.

After the fall of Zhang Juzheng, Wanli almost overthrew Zhang Juzheng completely, but the test method was retained, according to Wei Bao's understanding during this time, various ministries and yamen, in fact, there is still such a thing as assessment, but it has existed in name only, no one will take it seriously, and no one will take it seriously.

The Ministry of Officials, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, such an important yamen have been replaced twice in three days, and even the cabinet ministers are in and out like going to the toilet, who else cares about the assessment of officials?

In the early Ming Dynasty, there was a system for evaluating the performance of officials. According to the Ming system, Beijing officials "Jingcha" once every six years, and local officials once every three years.

However, in the Ming Dynasty, officials were corrupt, and laws and regulations were not effective, and these systems were either formalized or became a means for officials to fight for power.

Zhang Juzheng saw the scandalous drama and the degeneration of the system in the officialdom, and profoundly realized that it is not only necessary to conduct regular inspections of officials at all levels, but also to set a time limit for all the things they do, and to implement the important characteristics of the "examination method," that is, the so-called "setting limits for examination matters" and "taking responsibility for people."

In Zhang Juzheng's examination method, the six ministries and the Metropolitan Procuratorate set a time limit for the things that their officials should do, and registered them in three account books, one of which was kept by the Sixth Ministry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate as the base book, the other was sent to the six departments, and the last one was submitted to the cabinet.

The Sixth Ministry and the Metropolitan Procuratorate are registered according to the account books and inspected on a monthly basis. For the affairs undertaken by the subordinate officials, each completed must be registered, otherwise it must be truthfully declared, otherwise it will be punished as a violation.

The six departments can also register according to the account books, and require the six departments to report the implementation of the implementation every six months, and the violators will be dealt with in limited cases; Finally, the Cabinet also registered the books of accounts to verify the inspection work of the six sections.

In the third year of Wanli, a total of 237 unfinished incidents were found under the names of the provincial officials, and 54 ministers were found. Fengyang Governor Wang Zongmu and Inspector Zhang Genghua, Guangdong Governor Zhang Shouyu, Zhejiang Governor Xiao Li, were suspended for three months for too many unfinished events.

In the fourth year of Wanli, the imperial court stipulated that those who did not levy more than ninety percent of the local officials would be punished. In December, according to a report from the Huke Division, 17 officials in Shandong and 2 officials in Henan were demoted because less than 90 percent of the local officials were levied, while 2 officials in Shandong and 9 officials in Henan were dismissed.

During Zhang Juzheng's administration, redundant personnel accounted for about three-tenths of the total number of officials.

Zhang Juzheng set up three accounts to limit the number of examinations to be completed, and strictly controlled officials at all levels, from the central to the local.

In the year of the "big plan" for the assessment of magistrates, it is emphasized that officials who act impartially and serve the people are listed as the exams; Officials who rely exclusively on rhetoric and seeking credibility will be listed as the next examination, and those redundant officials who lack efficiency will be abolished.

At the same time, Zhang Juzheng also extensively increased talents, promoted officials who supported reform and had outstanding political achievements, and entrusted them with important tasks.

It has completely broken the traditional prejudice of seniority, and boldly appointed talents regardless of their background and qualifications.

In this way, the accountability structure (six ministries, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the six sections, and the cabinet) is obtained, and the cabinet is summarized by the inspection at all levels, which is an example of the cabinet becoming the actual political center, and the achievement of Zhang Juzheng's reform of the bureaucratic ruling system.

There are three enlightenments for the construction of a clean and honest government in Zhang Juzheng's examination method.

Pay attention to the effectiveness of the assessment work and improve efficiency.

There is a strange circle in Chinese history, that is, every dynasty tends to go from prosperity to decline after entering the peak stage, and cannot maintain this prosperous situation for a long time.

There are many reasons for this, but one thing is certain: when a society has been at peace for a long time, it will always have an exaggerated atmosphere of emphasizing only form and not practical results, so that the phenomenon of bullying and concealing superiors and subordinates in officialdom breeds and spreads, and government decrees often become a dead letter. The examination method is precisely a countermeasure to this malaise, and through the method of "monthly examination and annual registration", officials are encouraged to be consistent in their words and deeds, and the government's work efficiency has been improved.

Pay attention to the mutual supervision of superiors and subordinates, and improve the supervision and supervision system at all levels.

The cabinet controls the six sections, the six departments supervise the six departments, the six departments supervise the local domains, the departments and the Fu officials, and then the two departments to supervise the prefecture and county officials, is the framework of Zhang Juzheng's examination system, the most ingenious thing in the system is to use the six departments to supervise the six departments, and the low-level officials supervise the senior officials, and even impeach the senior officials, which is the tradition of the Ming Dynasty, and the Ming Dynasty has done a lot at this point, and it is by no means a formality.

In various historical materials of the Ming Dynasty, important members of the imperial court were impeached by officials and resigned from their official positions. For example, after Jiajing, Yan Song was impeached by the imperial historian Zou Yinglong. The supervision system of the Ming Dynasty was quite perfect, and in addition to the six departments, there was also a special supervision body, the Metropolitan Procuratorate, which was consistent with the spirit of judicial and supervision independence from politics.

Pay attention to the innovation of our own systems, and do a good job of implementation.

Zhang Juzheng is a politician who pays attention to obeying the ancestral system. Many of the measures he took, such as the burning of academies, the rectification of border defenses, and even the reform of a whip law, were carried out by respecting the ancestral system, and the examination method also inherited many contents of the "Daming Huidian" to a certain extent.

In his recital requesting the completion of the examination, he used a large paragraph of text to explain that his examination method was based on the ancestral system, and it turned out that there was a similar content of the examination method in the "Daming Huidian".

Zhang Juzheng re-emerged these existing ancestral systems, hoping that "from now on, the old chapter will be affirmed," and it will be carried out in strict accordance with the old and the new.

It can be said that his test method is the inheritance of the ancestral system, but it was taken out when it has been forgotten and added to meet the content of the times, so it can be said that it is an innovation.

The next day, Wei Bao arrived at the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and along the way, many officials were very polite to him.

Wei Bao was also very polite to greet the officials one by one, as if he had already regarded himself as an adult of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

However, Wei Bao knew that everyone was polite on the surface, but in fact they were jealous of themselves and waited to see their jokes.

Are there many good people or bad people in the world?

Human nature is inherently good, or is human nature inherently evil.

Wei Bao believes that there are many bad people in the world, and human nature is evil!

Even if there are a small number of good people, it is also due to the acquired family education and the acquired environment.

Once there is a situation where either you die or I die, the vast majority of people dare to kill!

"Hello Lord Wei, congratulations to Lord Wei for being promoted." The old grandson smiled like a flower.

"Hehe, I haven't gotten off the official plate yet, congratulations early. Old grandson, come to my official hall. Wei Bao said softly.

"Okay, okay." The old grandson hurriedly nodded in agreement.

The old grandson is the head of the errand on the side of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and Wei Bao wants to see if the old grandson can be used for himself!

When he arrived at the official hall, Wei Bao asked the old grandson to sit.

The old grandson was a little nervous, although Wei Bao was not officially appointed, but when Wei Bao drove away Yang Lian and several other senior officials of the Donglin Party, there was also Wei Bao who drove away the eunuch party officials, and when the current Metropolitan Procuratorate experienced Master Li Hanchi, the old grandson was there, and he was already afraid of Wei Bao.

Not to mention that Wei Bao sat in Li Hanchi's official hall, and the experience department was in charge of their errand servants, let's just say that Wei Bao was domineering, and the high-ranking officials of the fourth grade could be driven away when they were driven away, not to mention that he was not a leader of the errand officers.

The old grandson didn't know what Wei Bao was looking for him, so he didn't dare to sit down.

"Hey, sit down and talk." Wei Bao Road.

"Don't dare, in front of Lord Wei, where can people like us sit?" The old grandson poured a cup of tea for Wei Bao, held it in both hands, and gently placed it in Wei Bao's hand, still standing.

Wei Bao didn't go around the bush and asked directly: "Old grandson, I have been here for a short time, and many things are still unclear, so I have to rely on your help." ”

"Certainly, definitely, Lord Wei needs to use the villain's place, even if he is told." The old grandson said hurriedly.

"Okay, then tell me first, who are you? See what I mean? Wei Bao asked directly.

Old Sun Tou didn't understand a little, "Whose person?" The villain is just a mixed meal, where does the villain have any backing for a person with a low status? ”

"No matter how low your status is, you also have backers, and I understand the affairs of officialdom." Wei Bao said: "Let's be straight, are you from Donglin, or from Grandpa Wei?" ”

The old grandson hurriedly shook his head: "I'm not at any end, Master Wei, the villain's family has been working as an errand in the Beijing Division Yamen for generations, and the villain's father and grandfather are both servants of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, who asked us to do anything, we don't dare to say anything, where do we dare to get involved in the party struggle?" ”

Wei Bao nodded, "You didn't lie to me?" I see that you usually seem to be particularly stammering with a few people from Gonggong Wei. ”

"Wronged, there is no matter, Lord Wei, people like us, whoever has the right can stammer, if you want to talk about stammering, the most stammering is Lord Li Hanchi who was driven away by Lord Wei, you see that when Lord Wei drove him away that day, I didn't dare to say anything." The first few of the old grandsons argued.

"Oh? In this way, you are jealous in your heart that I drove away Master Li Hanchi. Wei Bao said indifferently, staring at the eyes of the old grandson.

Old Sun Tou's little eyes blinked, sweat broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly confessed, "How dare you, Lord Li Hanchi has been in charge of our errand for several years, and we are all used to listening to him, but Lord Wei is also an official of the imperial court, and if you officials fight, we will never dare to fight each other." ”

"That is, people who have no principles, no right and wrong, no concept of right and wrong, they can't do anything for a long time, and they must have their own set of guidelines to be a man, understand?" Wei Bao Road.

The old grandson was a little stunned, and said softly: "The villain's grandfather and father both taught the villain, do things honestly, be honest and be an errand, don't go too close to the people above in order to climb up, when it's good, the wind and water rise, and when it's not good, the door is full of beheading, the villain's family has been begging for life in Beijing for generations, and I don't dare to have any ideas." ”

"This is not a right idea, this is the position that people should have, a person without a position, there is no standard for doing things! If you don't provoke others, it will be difficult to ensure that you will not be unlucky and will not be cleaned out one day! Wei Bao said indifferently.

The old grandson was taken aback, and understood what Wei Bao meant, this is to see his loyalty.

Lao Sun Tou, like everyone else, still hasn't figured out which end of Wei Bao is, is he a member of the Donglin Party? Or eunuchs? Anyway, they all felt that Wei Bao should be in the middle, and people from any faction could not be counted, otherwise they would not offend both the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party.

Who is not afraid to be tied to such a person?

"Master Wei, you are an adult, don't scare people like me, we are just running errands to eat." Lao Sun Tou is indeed an honest man, and he was frightened by Wei Bao.

Wei Bao nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I won't scare you!" How many people do you have? ”

"There are more than 40 of us on errand duty in the Metropolitan Procuratorate." Old Sun Tou didn't know what Wei Bao was going to do, "Two shifts are on duty, a team of ten people, and more than 20 people are personally carried by me, and they are usually waiting in the yamen during the day." ”

"I'm going to send you 50 more men now! Here is the list of personnel, and in a moment they will come! Which of your men are hereditary servants, who have been introduced, and who have introduced you? Whichever end is it, tell this person named Lin Wenbiao that you must not hide half a word, otherwise I will not only make you a bad person, but also make your whole family have no way to live! Wei Bao didn't value this old grandson very much, and felt that he was easy to control, so he didn't talk much nonsense, and directly threatened to use force to control the old grandson and a group of officials from the Imperial Procuratorate.

When the time comes, except for the honest people left by the hereditary servants, the rest, whether they are from the Donglin Party or the eunuchs, will be cleared out.

people, Wei Bao has it, and the fifty people who have been added in are all agents selected from the General Administration of Statistics of the Heaven and Earth Society, and they are all from the Beizhili side.

Where does the old grandson dare to say half a word? I only feel that this young Master Wei is much bigger and more majestic than the original Master Li Hanchi.

Originally, the old grandson was very afraid of Lord Li Hanchi, but compared with this young and unspeakable Lord Wei, the degree of fear of Lord Li could not even catch up with the level of fear of Lord Wei, so he hurriedly agreed.

"By the way, are you familiar with the errand officer over there in Dali Temple?" Wei Bao asked again.

"Familiar, that man is about the same age as me, also in his early forties, called Du Shanling, and like me, he is a hereditary servant." The old grandson replied.

"Who is he? How is it to be a person? Wei Bao asked, "Honest or not?" Is it greedy and lustful? ”

The old grandson thought for a while, and then said: "It's quite honest, and like me, people who don't dare to do much, otherwise they won't be on an errand for generations. However, Du Shanling is more shrewd and capable than me, and adults will know when they see it, I don't know anything except being an errand. ”

"Okay, you go, just obey Lin Wenbiao in the future!" Wei Bao Road.

The old grandson hurriedly agreed.

The officers are under his jurisdiction, and even if they have not been formally appointed, Wei Bao has simply secretly seized the security rights of the Metropolitan Procuratorate by adding a large number of errand officers!

At this time, the people of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple were panicked, and no one would pay attention to the changes on the side of the errand officer.

How to use power after getting it, it seems that Wei Bao is very talented, and no one needs to teach this.

After that, Wei Bao originally wanted someone to help him call Du Shanling over to speak, but he thought that he was not an official of Dali Temple now, and he should go to Dali Temple to have a look, how familiar he was, so he decided to go there in person.

Dali Temple is next door to the Ducha Courtyard, the two yamen are next to each other, and the big courtyard is also connected.

On that day, Wei Bao drove out the senior officials of the Donglin Party of the Metropolitan Procuratorate headed by Yang Lian, and the senior officials of the Donglin Party of Dali Temple, which was completed in the large courtyard at one time.

Wei Bao also went to Dali Temple a few times before, but no one paid attention to him on the side of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and the Dali Temple knew that he was a minor official of the Metropolitan Inspectorate, and no one paid attention to him, so Wei Bao was still not familiar with the heads of the Dali Temple.

Wei Bao arrived at Dali Temple, walked east and west to see, really couldn't find anyone to speak, so he arrived at the gate of Dali Temple, and wanted to ask Du Shanling to the side to talk.

At this time, a person wearing a five-grade official uniform came over.

The official looked at Wei Bao coldly: "Where are you from?" What to do in Dali Temple? ”

Wei Bao was very unhappy when he heard the other party's unkind tone.

Because the other party is wearing a five-grade official uniform, and he is still a seventh-grade official uniform so far, it is obvious that the other party oppresses people with an official rank and looks down on him.

There is no official position of the five products on the side of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, but there is one in Dali Temple.

The Metropolitan Procuratorate is up to the seventh grade is the sixth grade, and the sixth grade is further up, it is directly the left and right imperial history of the fourth grade, and then up, it is the left and right deputy capital envoys of the third product, and Yang Lian is the left deputy capital imperial history. Further up, it's the left and right imperial history!

In terms of administration, Dali Temple is much more compact than the Ducha Yuan, because it is a level of management.

Unlike the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in fact, there is no question of who is in charge of whom, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is more like a project department, and when it reaches the level above the imperial history of the capital, it is more like a project manager.

Dali Temple is really like a high court in later generations, with judges and presidents.

Dali Temple Qing is the third product, which is equivalent to the highest justice of the country in later generations!

From the fact that the highest official of the Metropolitan Procuratorate is the second grade, and there can be several, and the highest official of the Dali Temple is only the third grade, and there can only be one person, it can be seen that in the administrative level, the Metropolitan Procuratorate is also larger than the Dali Temple.

However, because of the small number of people, the first level is more strict, and the team is more compact, forming a situation where the iron barrel of Dali Temple is more solid and not easy to be broken.

Dali Siqing is a person, and it is the third product.

The following is the left Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and the right Shaoqing of Dali Temple is four products.

Then there is the left temple of Dali Temple, and the right temple of Dali Temple is five products.

Dali Temple Secretary Hall, Dali Temple Secretary two from the nine products, the temple is one person is six products.

Dali Temple left temple, the temple is one person is six products.

Dali Temple right temple, the temple is a person from the six products.

Dali Temple left temple, the temple deputy one from the six products.

The right temple of Dali Temple, the deputy of the temple is from the six products.

In addition, there are four people who are commenting on the seven products.

Dali Temple has fewer official positions.

The reason why Wei Zhongxian promised to give Wei Bao a Zuo Si Cheng of Dali Temple is a five-grade Zuo Si Cheng is because Wei Zhongxian has just learned that the original Dali Temple Zuo Si Cheng, and the members of the Donglin Party were driven away by Wei Bao.

So Wei Zhongxian promised to give this position to Wei Bao.

But Wei Zhongxian and noble people are busy, and they don't pay much attention to the things below, especially the things at the level of the five-rank official rank, I don't know if they forgot that there is a eunuch official waiting for the right temple from the fifth grade, or they have never paid attention to it at all.

This is the right temple of the fifth grade, and he is now standing in front of Wei Bao, the cold-eyed and fifty-year-old brother.

This old brother has been working for many years, and the year before last, he took a 9,000-year-old hitchhiker, and only then did he improve in his career.

He was born in the Qichu Zhejiang Party, the Qichu Zhejiang Party is far smaller than the Donglin Party in terms of political power, if it were not for the eunuch party, they would all be integrated by the Wei family, otherwise in front of the Donglin Party, there would be almost no future.

The terrible degree of the regional concept, the portal concept, and the factional concept of officialdom is far from being understood by ordinary people.

But who knows this old brother, seeing that the original Donglin Party Zuo Si Cheng was driven away, it was his turn to be promoted to Zuo Si Cheng, but I heard that someone still had this thought, or a seven-grade Guan Zheng of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, how not to be angry?

Wei Bao looked at the other party proudly: "I'm from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, what's the matter?" Dali Temple was opened by you? Others can't come? ”

"Dali Temple is the important place for the trial of the Daming Prison case, and people who are not from this province are not allowed to enter and exit without authorization, and everyone in Dali Temple has the right to interrogate!" The man said coldly: "What's the matter with you?" If not, get out of here! ”

In fact, this person knew Wei Bao, and when Wei Bao drove away several ministers of the Donglin Party that day, he was naturally among the onlookers.

If it weren't for the 'opponent', I wouldn't be so anxious.

Although the left temple and the right temple of Dali Temple are both positive five products, the level is the same, but the status is not the same, just like the senior city officials and mayors of later generations, they must be the secretary of the university, and if they have the opportunity to be promoted, they must also be the priority secretary, and will not give priority to the mayor.

Wei Bao laughed and said, "You are Hu Damin, right?" ”

Although Wei Bao rarely comes to Dali Temple, and he is not familiar with the head of Dali Temple, he has done his homework, and he knows his life and location, but he can't match his face with his name.

From the moment Wei Zhongxian told him that he wanted to give him the position of the left temple, he had already thought that this right temple Cheng Hu Damin would definitely be dissatisfied, and he also knew that this person was a Wei diehard.

The ministers of the Qichu and Zhejiang Party are incompatible with the Donglin Party, and this kind of minister can be regarded as the descendants of the Wei family, because they not only have interests that need to be attached to the Wei family, if there is no Wei family, they will be killed by the Donglin Party one by one, and the Qichu and Zhejiang Party will not exist for a long time.

Hu Damin snorted, a little surprised that Wei Bao could call his name directly, he and Wei Bao, this is the first time to talk.

"Didn't you hear what the official just said? The people of your capital inspection institute have nothing serious, what are you doing in our Dali Temple without authorization? Hu Damin repeated coldly. It didn't make a difference just because Wei Bao could call his name directly.

Hu Damin was excited, his voice was not small, and the yamen of Dali Temple was smaller than that of the Duchayuan, which caused many people to stick out their heads to see, not knowing what was going on.

Wei Bao smiled and said loudly: "This official will soon be the left temple of Dali Temple!" Come to Dali Temple to familiarize yourself with the situation, why not? ”

Wei Bao didn't say this, but as soon as he said this, he seemed to touch Hu Damin all of a sudden, and said loudly: "It's really funny, you are a small Metropolitan Procuratorate Seven Rank Guanzheng, do you know how many officials the left temple of Dali Temple is?" Don't say that you are a new science and technology scholar, even a five- or six-grade official who has been trained in officialdom for more than ten or twenty years does not dare to look at Dali Temple Zuosi Cheng at will, why are you? Who have you won the battle? Or does the toad want to eat swan meat, and the fool is dreaming? ”

When many officials of the Metropolitan Procuratorate heard this, they made a fuss, and laughed exaggeratedly.

If a Metropolitan Inspectorate's Qipin Guan Zheng really parachuted into Dali Temple to serve as the Zuo Temple, not to mention that Hu Damin was unhappy, in fact, no one in Dali Temple could be happy.

Wei Bao swept around coldly to see which people were laughing, many people were afraid of being seen by Wei Bao, or stopped laughing, or turned sideways, or flashed back to their official hall.

Wei Bao's gaze was still quite murderous, and even Hu Damin himself was shocked by Wei Bao's cold gaze.

"I'm not a fool, you'll find out soon!" Wei Bao coldly counterattacked: "I'm here now, what can you do?" ”

"You!" Hu Damin said angrily: "Come and drive out people who are not from Dali Temple." ”

Wei Bao was going to beat Hu Damin when he went up, not that Wei Bao couldn't hold his breath, but that Wei Bao had become addicted to beating people recently.

Successively beat a number of senior officials of the Donglin Party and the Eunuch Party, and then beat Yang Lian and other senior officials of the Donglin Party such as the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Dali Temple, and then beat low-level eunuch officials like Li Hanchi, it seems that they are all right, this time and again, greatly boosted Wei Bao's arrogance, and I feel that the best way to solve the problem seems to be the only way to fight!

Especially for these civil officials, on the one hand, Wei Bao has an absolute advantage in force, and he is not afraid that he can't be defeated, and on the other hand, he is too lazy to talk for a long time, and he can't say it clearly.

If you want to argue with the other side, you will never be able to argue with each other.

Hu Damin saw Wei Bao take a few steps forward, grabbed his fist, was suddenly shocked, took two steps back, and said hurriedly: "You! What do you want? Someone, someone! ”

"Hey, why are you so scared? Lao Tzu hasn't done it yet! Wei Bao smiled slightly, took two steps forward, and was ready to punch at any time.

Hu Damin was so frightened that he ran away: "What are you going to do?" What are you going to do? ”

Wei Bao was speechless, was it the first time he had encountered this kind of thing, running so fast?
