Chapter 1141: A Storm of Integrity

The progress of things was as Xu Jie expected, and after a few attempts, Gao Gong found that Xu Jie was really honest, and he was a transparent person in the cabinet, which reminded people of Xu Jie during Yan Song's dynasty. This made Gao Gong deeply look down on Xu Jie in his heart, and at the same time, Gao Gong also started his own administrative program.

Originally, Gao Gong was high, but when he saw Luo Xin killing all the way, there were so many corrupt officials. Emperor Jiajing took out 700,000 taels of silver from the inner treasury for disaster relief, and only 100,000 taels were used for disaster relief, and those corrupt officials actually embezzled 600,000 taels, which made Gao Gong extremely angry. In the cabinet, he slapped the table and shouted, "Good kill!" ”。

Seeing that Luo Xin had finished killing those corrupt officials, he immediately replenished the officials. Moreover, those officials ruled the provinces in an orderly manner, and the homeless people and rogues disappeared, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment.

To say, clear high, one clear, one high. This is incorruptible, and this high is high. This exaltation is spiritual exaltation.

Gao Gong only saw those new officials who trusted Luo's life, who were honest and self-disciplined, and governed the local government in an orderly manner. No one is corrupt and bribed, and no one is in a position. But instinctively ignored that the reason why these people are like this is not that they like to work hard, it is not that they increase and embezzle, and they don't like money, but they are afraid of killing after watching Luo Xin's resolute killing.

If they were still in the capital, they would have heard about it, and at most it would have become a topic of conversation after dinner. However, right in front of them, watching the heads fall to the ground at close range, the impact on their hearts was too huge. In such a situation, where can you dare to embezzle? Where do you dare to mess around?

At the very least, there will be no corruption and messing around in the short term. It is necessary to wait for time to elapse and the impact in the heart slowly fades, so that the seeds of greed will slowly sprout.

What he didn't see was that he could just get rid of the corrupt officials......

Not bad!

It's dismissal!

He is not crazy enough to kill corrupt officials like Luo Xin. He only thought about removing those corrupt officials and replacing them with a new batch of officials. Those new officials will definitely be like those officials arranged by Luo Xin, honest and self-disciplined, and work hard. Such a Ming Dynasty will soon be revitalized in his own hands, and history will leave a strong mark on his high arch.

Gao Gong clearly recognized that the corruption of the Ming Dynasty had reached the point where it was incurable. During Yan Song's reign, corruption was rampant in the Ming Dynasty, and there were almost no people who were not greedy. After Yan Song, it was Xu Jie. But it didn't take long for Xu to ascend to the throne, and Gao Gong entered the cabinet. These two men fought in the cabinet, and instead of effectively fighting corruption, they had to turn a blind eye for their own purposes.

But......

Now Gao Gong feels that he has mastered the cabinet and should make a difference. If you want to make a difference, you must first start with the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so Gao Gong began to move vigorously. His first step was to tidy up the courtyard. In fact, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was also like a small imperial court, divided into several forces.

One belongs to his high arch, one belongs to Xu Jie, and one belongs to the centrists. And there are two strands of this centrist, one is originally the centrist, they are clear streams and do not attach themselves to anyone. One originally belonged to Yan Song, but after Yan Song fell, Xu Jie and Gao Gong were busy fighting for power and profit, and Yan Song's people were carrying their tails and messing around every day, so they were not dismissed.

However, this is no longer the case.

Gao Gong felt that he had completely controlled the cabinet, and Xu Jie was no longer afraid, and it was time for him to act drastically. Therefore, he first attacked Yan Song's people, those people are shit, as long as they are willing to look for it, they will naturally be able to find evidence of corruption and bribery, but in just two days, Gao Gong dismissed these people one after another. Then he began to target Xu Jie's people, and if he caught eight handles, he was dismissed, and if there was no evidence, he was transferred. In less than five days, he took the entire Metropolitan Procuratorate under his control. Then he appointed Wang Xijue as the imperial envoy of the Imperial Court.

Wang Xijue can be said to have ascended to the sky in one step, he was in charge of a yamen at a young age, and his heart was also high. Moreover, young people are strong-blooded, and they can't get used to those corrupt officials and corrupt officials and officials who are messing around. After taking office, he gave Emperor Jiajing an excerpt, the content of which was to govern the discipline of Ming officials.

What was the state of Emperor Jiajing at this time?

He was in about the same condition as the high arch.

I just saw that Luo Xin killed the corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and after killing these corrupt officials and corrupt officials, the place was not chaotic, but under the governance of the new officials, it was in order, especially when I saw the raid of those corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and solved part of the Ming Dynasty's finances.

Therefore, Emperor Jiajing happily agreed to Wang Xijue's suggestion. He is still waiting for Wang Xijue to be like Luo Xin, to rectify a group of corrupt officials, and it is best to copy another group of officials and bring him more silver.

Wang Xijue received the favor of Emperor Jiajing and the support of Gao Gong, so he gathered more than 100 imperial envoys of the Imperial Procuratorate and held a swearing-in meeting.

At the oath-taking meeting, more than 100 imperial envoys screamed like chicken blood.

It's been a long time since these envoys have been so cool. Since the great ceremony during the reign of Emperor Jiajing, the imperial envoy was broken by Emperor Jiajing, and the upright imperial envoy almost disappeared. On the contrary, it has become a gun for all parties to compete and a tongue for attacking others.

But......

Now it's different, Wang Xijue said, no matter which camp it is this time, no matter who it is, their duty is to picket hundreds of officials, and impeach anyone who is corrupt or bribery. Whoever forms a party with villains is impeached. Anyone who does nothing is impeached. Anyone who is in trouble will be impeached. Whoever corrupts the morals and discipline shall be impeached. And so on and so forth.

More than a hundred imperial envoys were enthusiastic, it was really ...... It's never been so cool. Impeachment can finally be vividly demonstrated. At this moment, the spine that was broken by Emperor Jiajing seemed to be straight again, and the sacred sense of the imperial envoy that had disappeared for a long time seemed to be back.

Like hungry wolves, these envoys screamed and pounced on the hundred officials.

So, the hundred officials were unlucky!

Can you not be unlucky?

Even if you are an official, there is no corruption, no party, and no inaction, but as long as you do something, there will be problems. A bunch of bloody envoys, staring at you with red eyes, will they still not find fault?

With the support of Gao Gong and the joint efforts of the Metropolitan Procuratorate and the Ministry of Officials, the storm of clean government swept across the Ming Dynasty. Countless officials have been dismissed, many of them big tigers.
