Li Hong led the chatter all the way. Li Lingyue didn't go back to the East Palace directly. Instead, he came to Shangshu province together. If it wasn't for comforting his cautious father, it would be the time for Li Hong to meet with the Minister of punishment and the Minister of the military.
It is Cui Zhiwen who cooperated with di Renjie over the past few years. Therefore, he has remained in the position of minister of the Ministry of punishment and has not changed his position.
In the Tang Dynasty, there are still many people who are famous for the Ministry of war. Even Pei Xingjian is still the Secretary of the Ministry of military affairs. However, he is a pseudonym and has no responsibility to deal with the affairs of the military department. The real power is still in the hands of the Secretary of state Ren Yaxiang.
Li Lingyue took Li Hong's hand and walked into the Shangshiling's office together. The spacious office made xiaohualao start to exclaim: "Wow, it's bigger than my father's study. Brother, be careful that your father will trouble you."
"Are you not thirsty after all this talk?" Li Hong rowed Li Lingyue's head and let Yang Wu pour a glass of water for it.
The little guy was sitting on a big chair with small arms and legs. He looked around leisurely and carefree. However, he startled Ren Yaxiang and Cui Zhiwen who had just come in. Seeing the little thing standing up from the chair, he realized that there was still a man sitting on the chair opposite the desk of Shangshu.
Li Lingyue didn't care. She waved her hand to say hello to them.
"What do you think of the bad people in the government?" Li Hong is straightforward, let two people sit down beside, after side body direct asks a way.
Li Lingyue occupied one of the two chairs opposite the desk, and refused to let go. So the two secretaries of the Ministry of war had to sit down in the two chairs far away from the desk.
"My Lord, but bad people are making trouble again?" Cui Zhiwen frowned. At that time, the bad people created by the emperor were originally those who had evil deeds. After decades of development, they have become a force that can not be underestimated.
But it is because of these decades of time that these bad people completely regard themselves as officials, because the average salary is too small, and they began to use their own identity, began to commit crimes, fish and meat in the countryside.
Li Hong said with a smile: "that's not true. If this kind of thing comes to me, I'm afraid you, the Minister of punishment, should resign. But as an indispensable force of the government, we have very weak binding force on them. Even because their salaries are too low, they are allowed to collect and oppress the people. "
"But it would be more inappropriate to ban it now? After all, the government has to rely on them to investigate, arrest and arrest. Without them, there will not be enough staff in the government's office. Although these bad people are still bullied and oppressed by the people after being expropriated by the government, they are still a small number. Now they can only be restricted and controlled after committing crimes. " Cui Zhiwen is still frowning. He is not unaware of the advantages and disadvantages of bad people, but he really can not come up with a specific way to effectively control them. Kwai
was originally divided into two categories: two kinds of catch and fast hands. "It's also the official service of catching bandits. Kwai, and the thief's officers and men. With the evolution of history, it has gradually become the word "captor" in the people's mouth.
Li Hong didn't know whether captors evolved from bad people, but even after the Tang Dynasty, captors were just like bad people, belonging to the humble business.
Even in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the job of captor was still regarded as a cheap occupation. Its descendants could not take the imperial examination, even if you were gifted. Even if you were out of the industry of captors, the next three generations would still not be allowed to participate in the imperial examination. Only the fourth generation would be allowed.
These occupations, which are not respected by people, together with their own conduct and evil deeds, will naturally lead to their acts of breaking the pot. The government enslaves them and the people despise them. Therefore, they dare not deceive the officials, but dare to deceive the people.
"My Lord, do you mean..." Cui Zhiwen doesn't understand. Since the function of a captor is the same as that of a bad man, why should he change it?
"It is impossible to turn villains into an effective team only by themselves. The government's control and their own constraints must exist at the same time, so that we can turn them into real captors. What's more, the three characters of villains themselves are likely to humiliate them. Even if some people have the determination to reform, I'm afraid they will give up reform Yes. Call it a constable. I'm afraid that's different. " Li Hong grabbed Li Lingyue's inkstone and put it on the table. The little guy's hand quickly picked up a pen and began to scribble.
"My Lord, do you want to reorganize them?" After listening for a long time, Ren Yaxiang understood Li Hong's meaning.
"Yes, the reform of the Ministry of war is imperative, and so must the reform of the Ministry of punishment. Most of the young and strong people can be selected from the bad people to join the army, and some older soldiers in the army can naturally be reorganized into bad ones Oh, the ranks of captors can not only supply new soldiers for the Tang Dynasty, but also promote the quality of captors with old soldiers. Isn't it the best of both worlds? As for salary, it can be equal to the salary of soldiers formulated by the Ministry of war. Now there is a lot of money in the Tang Dynasty. It depends on whether you can spend it or not. " Li Hong said with his spare time.But I don't know. The Secretary of the Ministry of war and the Secretary of the Ministry of punishment looked at each other and said in their hearts, "yes, the Tang Dynasty is not left with money now. Even if you go to Qujiang pool to attend the poetry meeting, you have brought 1.8 million liang of pocket money. It's really rich to be rich in the Tang Dynasty."
As for how to reorganize the details between captors and conscripts, of course, it is not the work of Li Hong, the Secretary of state, to do. What he has to do is to point out the direction of the Ministry of war and the Ministry of punishment, and then we will see their work efficiency.
Li Lingyue pulled Li Lingyue out of the shangshuling's study. They slowly went to the east palace. Li Lingyue saw that everyone was fresh along the way, especially when she mentioned Bai Chun. She began to cry out: "when I grow up, I will be as beautiful as Bai Chun."
Li Hong is too lazy to pay attention to her. When you grow up, as long as you don't harm the country and the people, you are a first-class beauty in history, and Shangguan Waner is not a good thing.
"Your Highness, the secret letter of King Xu." Jingzhe appears in the east palace with a secret letter from Li Sujie in his hand.
Li Hong took over the random inspection. This is the second one this month. It seems that the situation is more serious than Li Hong thought.
"Don't let him know what he's up to. Don't let me know what he's up to." Li Hong took a look at the shortened secret letter and closed the old Gao in his hand.
Li Lingyue always wanted to reach the letter. She was very curious about what was written in it, which could make the emperor look dignified.
Before going to Taiyi City, Li Hong passed by Xu Jingzong's home, and asked Xu Yanbo to accompany him in to visit Xu Jingzong.
Although the old guy was sitting in a reclining chair, he looked good, but he could not walk freely, so he was confined at home.
"I didn't expect that Yan Bo could serve his highness like an old minister, but I didn't expect that after these years in Anxi, he has become a real general." Xu Jingzong's gray hair is a little messy, with a trace of regret.
"What? Do you even think that military generals are not as noble as civil servants? Has the tomb of Xu family been blackened? " Li Hong said rudely: "Xu Jingzong, I'm not talking about you. In your whole life, you've been thinking about how to improve the virtual name of the Xu family name. Even if your surname Xu can be compared with five surnames and seven families, what can you do? How about the Wang family in Jinyang? Now you can't hold your head up among the people in the world. You have lived all your life, but you still don't understand how old you are. In the end, your false name is just a mirror in the water. "
"But the old minister has worked hard all his life to keep his name and voice. He has made so much efforts for my Tang Dynasty and my surname Xu. I don't want to work hard all my life. The Xu family is still a small family name. Your highness, I know that you have never been ashamed of respecting the emperor. Since you forced the old minister from the queen to the East Palace and shackled the old minister's mind, I knew that in my life, I would never see the surname Xu become a well-known family, but I didn't give up my heart, and Xu Yanbo was also a good student in the Hongwen library. If I didn't go to Anxi with you, I would like to It's not impossible to come to the present day... "
"Yes, with your help, Xu Yanbo's official career will be smooth, but why do you recommend him to accompany me to Anxi? What is your abacus? Is it that you have calculated me again Li Hong asked curiously.
Xu Jingzong lonely smile, today's he, can't say one day will not open his eyes again, so to say angry words also not so much restraint.
He said with a weak smile: "when you went to Qujiang pool, you met Wang Bo and Yang Jiong, and then you met Luo Binwang and Lu Zhaolin. Wang Bo, in particular, did not leave a good impression on you. Moreover, you always thought that this person was too utilitarian, so the old minister thought whether you could let Xu Yanbo appear in front of you to attract your attention to recruiting talents But Xu Yanbo and Wang Bo are not the same kind of people. "
"You are really good at taking advantage of it, so you recommend your grandson for my use, hoping to attract my attention with his talent? But then again, how did you know I valued Wang Bo at first? " Li Hong was very puzzled. He did expect Wang Bo at the beginning, but when he gave up Chongwen hall for his official career, he decided to go back to his hometown to participate in the imperial examination or was recommended by the aristocratic family, so he gave up on him.
In this short period of time, no one should have noticed that he once had the idea of Wang Bo. But this immortal Yin man can know his mind as clearly as the Ascaris lumbricoides in his stomach.
