Since it is said that it is a review of adverse cases, it is naturally impossible to just listen to civil lawsuits alone, and the review in Taicheng is also a key point.

The examination of evidence collection against Taichen is mainly the responsibility of Tingwei. And Shan Yao, who was newly in charge of the court lieutenant, had much more direct means than Shen Weizhou, the Duke of Liang, and directly ordered all the incumbent Taiwanese ministers in Taiwan before and after the turmoil to be immune from the beginning and end of the turmoil that Chen had seen. Those who fail to pay within the time limit will be punished with the same party as the conspiracy.

The issuance of this notice can be imagined to cause a great sensation in Taiwan, which is tantamount to treating all Taiwan ministers as suspects. And the name of the cool official of the mountain has also climbed to a new height in the current situation with the issuance of this decree.

Therefore, for a while, the entire Taicheng was full of complaints, and the sound of attacking the mountains was endless. There are also many Taiwanese ministers who have publicly stated that they would rather be unjustly imprisoned than say a word, and will never bow to a cool official like Shan Yao who corrupts the world's morals. Even the entire Tingwei organization became the most annoying place in Taicheng for a while.

Although the crowd was turbulent, Shan Yao did not have the slightest intention of weakness and retreat. You must know that he is in Huainan, but he directly faces the arrogant generals and the arrogant and heroic sects, and he can enforce the law without flinching, and he has the name of the goshawk. These grievances in the stage are even more ignored by him.

In the face of this situation in Taiwan, Zhongshu Ling He Chong can be described as bitter. You must know that in addition to cooperating with the review of reverse cases, there is also normal administrative work that needs to be maintained. In addition to frequently coming to complain and complain, those recitals attacking Shan Yao almost filled the entire Zhongshu official office.

He Chong's Zhongshu order can be described as pitiful, and his own authority has been completely emptied, but the blame is not less at all. Now that he is in this position, his biggest responsibility is to carry the black pot for the Huainan officials brought back to Jiangdong by Liang Gong Shen Weizhou.

The overall structure of Huainan is different from Jiangdong, when a large number of Huainan officials enter Taicheng, collisions are inevitable, similar to Shanyao, which is the most radical, as for the others, even if they are not so violent, they also show a kind of incompatibility in many aspects.

No matter how much power He Quanquan has, he is still the nominal leader of the hundred officials in Taicheng at present, and other ministers can only pour out their complaints to He Chong. But He Chong has nothing to do about it, first of all, he has no right to appoint and dismiss the ministers at all, and secondly, the Huainan officials have already filled many cardinal positions in Taiwan, and there is no way to eliminate them.

As soon as Shen Zhezi arrived in Taicheng, he directly led him to the Zhongshu Official Office, and opened his mouth to complain: "Liang Gong is deeply distressed by the accumulation of shortcomings in the court, and there is Kuang Fu to clean up Hongzhi, but he has been sick for a long time, and he really can't vain hope that he will get rid of his illness once he is sick, and he must not ignore it!" ”

Hearing He Chong's complaints, Shen Zhezi couldn't help laughing, how anxious He Chong had been recently, he naturally understood. Especially Shanyao's fierce and brave style of doing things, sometimes even he can't go well, not to mention the laid-back officials in Taicheng.

"Huainan members, for a long time on the border, every time there is a fire, it is difficult to tolerate the time to turn around, and it is inevitable to act carefully. Although there are such drawbacks, but everyone is rare in this world, and the talent is considerable, please rest assured that this is true. It is imperative to treat the social problem, and no matter how urgent it is, it will inevitably be painful. For example, humeral cysts can only be avoided from toxic erosion by swinging a knife and cutting quickly. ”

Since he has to rely on talents to do things, Shen Zhezi, the chief official, naturally needs to share the corresponding pressure. Especially people like Shan Yao, in fact, are serious in terms of talent, if they can't create an environment suitable for their people, they are destined to achieve nothing.

"Besides, Lieutenant's recent order seems to me to be nothing wrong. Earlier, the people in Kinai were in an uproar, and it was difficult to judge what happened in detail afterwards. The words were broken and arbitrary, and now they are adopted by the public and strive to be detailed, which is the posture of fairness in law enforcement. ”

Speaking of this, Shen Zhezi's face pulled down again: "I am a border minister, it is inevitable to be sharp, in my opinion, the ministers in the stage cannot defend the king and sit in the Ming Hall, but suffer the humiliation of running around, so it is a crime." At present, allowing him to confess himself is considered extrajudicial mercy, and if this order is regarded as a humiliation, how can the king apologize for the humiliation? ”

He Chong originally hoped that Shen Zhezi could persuade him a little, but he didn't expect his attitude to be tougher, and his face became ugly for a while.

However, Shen Zhezi also needs He Chong to stay in Taicheng as a buffer at the moment, but he doesn't want the other party to be too unable to come to Taiwan, so he said again without waiting for him to speak: "This kind of argument, I don't only discuss with Zhongshu in private, even in the face of colleagues and ministers. If someone fights in the middle of the book in person on another day, please don't bother anymore, go directly to the state city to say me, and I will give him an unforgettable 'fairness'! ”

Hearing Shen Zhezi say this, He Chong also knew that it would not be effective to entangle him any longer, but at least the other party was encompassing the surging crowd, and he also wanted to see what kind of behavior the ministers who were making righteous indignant gestures in front of him would behave when they arrived in the state capital, which could be regarded as a pastime of bad taste in addition to anxiety.

Skipping this matter, Shen Zhezi explained his intention again. He took out the seals written by the county magistrates before and put them in front of He Chong, and then sighed: "The government and the opposition have accumulated many evils, which is really awe-inspiring. At present, between the counties of County, the people who are involved in the lawsuit are like swarming locusts, which can also be seen how the former office did nothing earlier, and the township grievances have accumulated so deeply! ”

The corners of He Chong's mouth couldn't help but tremble after hearing this, not to mention that he himself was a member of the so-called Wuwei Taigong in Shen Zhezi's mouth, and the other party's skillful ability to beat a rake alone made people a little unbearable.

He was worried about the collision between the Huainan officials and the original Taichen, but it did not mean that there were no complaints in the Taiwan against Shen Zhezi, the leader.

For example, in just a few days, Deacon Liang Gong was weak, and the township was gone, and the so-called villagers flocked to lawsuit, which is the best illustration of the immorality of the government. In previous years, Liang Gong was in the north, and Jiangdong did not see so many traitor crimes, but now that he has returned, there is almost no innocence inside and outside Gyeonggi. This is really called chaos, but in fact it is a disaster for the country!

Although few people dare to say this kind of argument in public, it has long been wild in the private gatherings of the Taiwan ministers.

Of course, He Chong also knew that these evaluations were naturally unfair, because the current chaos was instigated by the government and the opposition.

However, in Shen Zhezi's mouth, this turbulent situation is the most conclusive evidence of Taifu's dereliction of duty, and he also has a strong reason, and he has always paid attention to side affairs.

This kind of mutual attack is itself a confused lawsuit that cannot be distinguished, and it can be said that the two sides worked together to promote who is innocent. He Chong didn't bother to arbitrate anything, but sighed: "After all, the chaos can't wait for a long time, we still need to make a conclusion as soon as possible to give the king and the government and the opposition a fair result." ”

"This is the reason why I came to visit Zhongshu, I was ordered to deal with the rebellion, and naturally I also want to end this accumulation of things as soon as possible, and then return to Jiangbei to crusade against hunting. However, at present, there is really a shortage of manpower, especially the lack of officials in the counties, and the ability to administer affairs is seriously insufficient. ”

Shen Zhezi said as he took out his watch seal and handed it to He Chong: "In view of this, I hope that the Taiwan can leave me a little bit of authority and allow me to set up a few expedient strategies." ”

Do you want to take a break from the right to do things? The current situation is not big enough?

After He Chong heard this, he couldn't help but slander again and again, and now Taicheng still belongs to him, and only his innocence is left. Of course, he also knows that this is just a polite statement, and now that the Taiwan affairs are decided by this one-person hand, he can't stop what he really wants to push.

After taking the seal and hurriedly taking a look, He Chong's face changed abruptly, and he had a new understanding of Shen Zhezi's audacity.

There is only one strategy stated in the seal, which is a method of selecting scholars that is proposed to be called "official examination", that is, to announce it to the inside and outside through the form of an edict, organize a similar policy evaluation for the Shishu of Jinai, and select the best to serve as the head of the palace and temple official office.

"The imperial court has its own talent to make decisions, and Liang Gong's argument seems to be redundant......"

He Chong closed the seals, put aside the shock in his heart for the time being, and looked directly at Shen Zhezi to express his opposition. Regarding this strategy, the first thing he thought of was that Shen Zhezi was still not satisfied with the current situation, and wanted to make up another name and then recruit all his henchmen into various government offices in Taicheng.

"Or redundant, but only expedient. Only then did he take the official examination, and the officials who were appointed were not in the office. In fact, it is similar to the method of use, but it is a common theory in this world. If any incumbent ruler needs to do his best in the affairs of the king, who does not recruit his own subordinates with his own personal wealth, and because of the constraints of human affection, he will not be able to do anything......

He Chong's opposition was also expected by Shen Zhezi, but since he proposed such a plan, he naturally prepared sufficient rhetoric.

In the current structure of official positions, a large number of subordinate officials under the official position are responsible for handling specific affairs. High-ranking people such as the Three Dukes and Fang Bo all opened the government and privately hired their subordinates, and these subordinates did not strictly belong to the sequence of princes and ministers, including Dong Cao Peng, who started by Shen Zhezi, and the object he was responsible for at that time was the Wang Dao of the Taibao at that time, rather than directly under the king.

Even if officials do not open the government, they still need a large number of subordinates. When Shen Zhezi served as Dong Cao Peng, he needed to recruit officials to deal with those trivial matters. As for the local government, in addition to the large-scale self-supporting households, there are also all kinds of convenient methods for protégés and shade families.

This part of the officials does not have the rank themselves, and is only the private subordinates of the officials, but in fact, the imperial court includes a part of such expenses in the payment of officials.

Shen Zhezi's proposal for the official examination is to institutionalize this kind of officialdom rules, and incorporate the private employment of officials into the customized measures of the imperial court, so as to create a complete auxiliary system outside the existing bureaucracy. The allegiance of this part of the subordinate group was shifted from the chief official to the imperial court.

He Chong heard what Shen Zhezi said about expediency, and then opened the seal to take a closer look, and found that it was indeed marked that even if this so-called official examination was taken, it was not a lifelong appointment, but a certain number of years and time according to specific affairs. When this time is exceeded, he will be exempted from the people.

For example, there is an urgent shortage of various judicial talents under the Yangzhou Prefecture, and there is no need to even know the law, as long as you can read and write calmly. Therefore, the officials opened the examination, and 200 to 300 people were selected, and the time limit was half a year or a year.

With this understanding, He Chong carefully read many of the details of the so-called official examination and found that it was not a feasible strategy. Also from the standpoint of the center, this can be regarded as a way to greatly concentrate power in Taicheng. If this kind of evaluation is adopted in this front city, there will be no situation where Jiangbei is almost divided and cannot be intervened at all.

Moreover, this has hardly touched the current bureaucratic system, and even this part of the official's salary has not been reduced, which is equivalent to an additional benefit with the ministry. As for these subordinate officials who have passed the official examination, they will use it in an emergency, and they will not need to increase the burden of money and food.

But there is only one thing to worry about: "Are there really many sages in the wilderness?" If you are really virtuous, are you willing to be whipped sideways? ”

Hearing He Chong's question, Shen Zhezi said with a smile: "At present, it is still a grass-roots strategy, as for the real effect, it remains to be tested, maybe it is really my whimsical and useless work is undecided." ”

Examining officials instead of examiners is a relatively less resistant reform drafted by Shen Zhezi according to the current situation, and it is also to open a way for the children of the real poor to join the ruling order. As for He Chong's consideration, there are not so many relics available, which is actually not a problem.

At present, although the gate valve is still in an abnormal state, it is no longer the situation of academic and ruling technology since the Eastern Han Dynasty. The turmoil that has spread to the upper and lower strata of society has already promoted the dispersion and downward spread of knowledge.

Moreover, the enthusiasm of those poor families and inferior clans to participate in politics should not be underestimated, and there are many people like the Shen family who have repeatedly rebelled in order to join the ruling class. Groups of their kind, relatively speaking, pay more attention to the fact of joining the ruling order, but pay less attention to the false name of rank.

In order to maintain the survival of the family business and obtain political privileges, the so-called high-ranking families in the north even allowed foreign rulers to sit on top of their heads and pee. Shen Zhezi did not feel that the depreciation of his reputation could stop the enthusiasm of the majority of poor disciples to participate in the governance of the world. The overall use of talents by the official examination system can extract them from the original rural environment to a certain extent.

As for the obstruction from the high gate of the world, at present, the forces of both the northern and southern clans have fallen into a state of extreme malaise, at least from their resistance, it is no more than the steel knife from Shen Zhezi's hundreds of thousands of kings in the north of the river!

According to Shen Zhezi's description, this so-called official examination is just a very ordinary thing, and it is more like a workaround he took when he was trapped in the current situation. The only thing that needs to be noted is that it should be announced in the form of an edict, as an attempt to use it as a system, if it can be effective, the future Taicheng is tantamount to having a good law to check and balance local officials.

After He Chong groaned slightly, he really didn't find any obvious drawbacks, not to mention that he also knew that his position in the book order was not so stable, so he quickly signed and submitted it to the court, and the emperor immediately issued the edict after the emperor's approval, and tested the waters.
