Wang Guorui once heard a saying about the law in later generations. Many people believe that only harsh punishment can punish criminals and make people dare not commit crimes. There are also those who advocate to follow Singapore's example, and then let China impose severe punishments so that those criminals know the consequences of committing crimes. However, many people use the so-called Zhu Yuanzhang to kill so many people and fail to eliminate the situation of corrupt officials to refute, believing that severe punishment methods cannot really stop crime. It's like since ancient times, many crimes have been capital crimes, and many crimes have been capital crimes of the nine clans at every turn, but why do people still commit crimes?

In fact, some people say that they don't care about how serious the punishment is, but whether the law can be strictly enforced, whether the law can be truly implemented, and whether there is zero tolerance for those who violate the law.

If zero tolerance is not achieved, then in the end, there will still be a large number of people who have a fluke mentality, thinking that they can escape the catastrophe, thinking that they can get away with not being punished, or they are lucky not to be punished so harshly. As long as this kind of luck mentality still exists, then the criminal person will still exist. In the final analysis, corruption is also a crime, if we cannot achieve zero tolerance for corruption, then in the end, no matter how severe the punishment is, there are still many people who are lucky to be corrupt.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang killed so many corrupt officials, why couldn't he put an end to it in the end? That's because he can't have zero tolerance, and when he punishes him, he doesn't look at the problem from the perspective of strictly enforcing the law, but from the perspective of his personal will and from the perspective of safeguarding his personal interests. He ****** nothing more than to maintain the stability of his country, not to rely on the law to govern the country. So his personal mind is very heavy, and the law is nothing more than an excuse to maintain his rule. But. If keeping a corrupt person would be beneficial to his rule, he would also let him go. So Zhu Yuanzhang's position is very problematic, not so much to fight corruption, but to maintain his rule.

Since he can't achieve zero tolerance, his punishment is too arbitrary, and it is completely his subjective punishment. It is not really a punishment according to law. The majesty of the law is not in how severe the punishment is, but in the fact that no one easily crosses him. If a person commits a crime and deliberately increases the sentence because of some powerful people or public opinion, this is actually a violation of the law. Whether it is a light sentence for a felony or a heavy sentence for a misdemeanor, it is actually an act of blasphemy against the law.

"If you want to put an end to crime, it is not because of how severe the punishment is, but because it is carried out in full accordance with the law, and no one bends the law for personal gain, and there is no aggravated sentence. Only let them see that everything is to be dealt with according to the law. There is no cover-up or a particularly aggravated punishment, that is what makes them not have any luck mentality. Even if it is like Zhu Yuanzhang who kills and kills, although it seems that many officials have been severely sentenced, more people see that this is nothing more than Zhu Yuanzhang playing tricks in his own thoughts, not in accordance with the law. Therefore, everyone has a fluke mentality, which is the most important reason for repeated prohibition of corruption. So our ****** is not about the big laws, it's about zero tolerance. Wang Guorui said.

"Wait for it!"

Soon. The corrupt officials in the construction sector were also exposed and then prosecuted by the courts. The corresponding trial is then conducted. And this time it was a public trial, and even a public one for the people to come and watch, so that everyone could see how this corrupt official was tried and sentenced.

And this also made many people with ulterior motives think that they had grabbed Wang Guorui's pigtails, and then began to belittle Wang Guorui's new court.

"Did you see that? Isn't this new court also full of corrupt officials? He also said that the new court will inevitably have a new atmosphere, and that the new court will definitely bring a better life to the people, have you seen it? This is also the promise of the new imperial court. But aren't there corrupt officials now? There are still corrupt officials in the new court, I thought the new court would be everywhere, but in fact, it is not a raccoon dog? Isn't it the same as the Manchu Qing Dynasty in the past, there are still corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and there are still corrupt officials who are cruel to the people. Fish and meat people. ”

"Yes! This is the new imperial court, and they still claim to be better than the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I don't think it's the same thing, it's just a raccoon dog! ”

"That's it, that's it for the new court, what else can we do? Hmph, isn't it still a fish and meat people? They were no different from the Manchu court. ”

These are still stubborn young scholars wearing the so-called traditional scholar costumes, and then gather here to discuss Wang Guorui, a corrupt official. Recently, these past readers are really idle, and they are endless. They don't study anymore, and they eat their old books at home every day. Since Wang Guorui abolished the so-called imperial examination system and changed it to the so-called political rights examination, the pass rate of those who think they are scholars is very low! Because of this political qualification examination, in fact, it is not the Four Books and Five Classics that are examined, but the two main subjects of Chinese and mathematics, and the other subjects are supplemented.

However, the language courses are not just exams, but vernacular Chinese. In this way, for those readers who have been immersed in those eight-strand texts all day long, they don't understand the vernacular texts. On the contrary, they do not understand how to say those vernacular texts, and they are not as familiar with the grammar of words in the vernacular as those ancient texts. Now they're blind. As for those mathematics, some of them even miscalculate the addition and subtraction of mathematics within 10,000 digits, and even some exaggerated calculations have to count their fingers for addition and subtraction within 100 digits, so it is strange that they can pass.

These scholars may have no problem with their IQ, but they are using them in the wrong place. Emotional intelligence is also very poor, and it is strange to expect them to do a good job in politics. Therefore, they eat the old book here every day, and then gather everywhere, and the only fun is to scold Wang Guorui, find faults, and find out a few faults in the bones in the eggs!

Therefore, now that they heard that Wang Guorui had arrested corrupt officials, they all felt extremely excited, feeling as if this new court was no different from the Manchu court in the past, weren't they all corrupt officials?

"Several, you can now scold the emperor and the court here without anyone coming to arrest you, isn't that changing? You still say no? The shopkeeper in the teahouse immediately complained.

The scholar immediately scolded: "What are you, a shopkeeper, who actually talks like this? Is this kind of national event something you can evaluate? ”

"Hey, don't tell me, I'm still qualified! I just passed the political ability test, and I'm reviewing these days, maybe I'll be able to get into the civil service in a while, and then I'll be an official, so I won't be a junior in this shop! And I have finally passed this political ability test, may I ask a few scholars, how many points did you get in the exam? The shopkeeper said disdainfully.

"You-"

These scholars still can't let go of the face of the so-called scholars in the past, and now they see a shop that serves them and the second child is here to discuss national affairs, you must know that this is the privilege of their readers in the past. But now that the times have changed, a shopkeeper can talk about national affairs, isn't this reversed? And people say that they have passed the test, but these scholars and talents have not taken the test at all, isn't this a slap in the face? Autonomy or despise others, but now people also come to despise you, people have passed this political qualification exam, then you haven't taken the exam, that person is not qualified, then you are also qualified?

"However, the corrupt officials also exist, so what is the difference between this court and the Manchu court? What else is better than the Manchu Qing Dynasty, isn't it also a group of corrupt officials now? Since they are all corrupt officials, what progress can be made? There are still so-called readers who say.

But the shopkeeper replied; "The biggest difference between our new court and the Manchu court in the past is that the corrupt officials in the current court will be sent to trial. And the corrupt officials of the Manchu court in the past, then they can continue to be officials and continue to loot the people, this is the biggest difference, do you understand? Therefore, there are corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but how do you see how the two imperial courts deal with these corrupt officials? ”

"You-"

This is the biggest difference, Wang Guorui has never denied that there are corrupt officials and corrupt officials in his own house, and what he can do is to find one and judge another. However, the Manchu court never admitted that there were corrupt officials and corrupt officials within itself, even if everyone knew that corruption was very serious, but the Manchu court never admitted it but tolerated and nurtured adultery, and finally the corruption became more and more serious. And isn't that system of donating officials a system that promotes the development of corrupt officials and corrupt officials? So everyone knows that there is a problem here, but the Manchu court never investigates and punishes it, and even some emperors say that they are not deaf or blind and are not worthy of being in charge.

Even tolerating corrupt officials and corrupt officials has said so openly, it is simply impossible to expect them to fight corruption and expect them to punish corrupt officials.

The shopkeeper immediately said: "The biggest difference between my new court and the Manchu court in the past is not whether there are corrupt officials. Rather, it is that in the past, the Manchu court was appeased and nurtured, and our new court, as the emperor said, has zero tolerance! ”

Hearing this, everyone at the scene was silent for a while, which may be the biggest difference in dealing with corrupt officials. The core of anti-corruption is not whether there are corrupt officials or how to punish and deal with them, but how to deal with them, but how to deal with them. (To be continued.) )
