I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 130 Washington: You are too aggressive against corrupt officials! Zhu Houzhao: Export a little bit of Zhu Yuanzhang’s anti-corruption shock!

[American Taizu Washington: Set up a special agency to supervise officials... Your Majesty Yuwen, are you so idle in the East? This is a little scary, even undemocratic. 】

As soon as Zhu Houzhao said this, Washington couldn't help but take the lead.

Anti-corruption?

What a joke, from his perspective, it was just a quarrel caused by uneven distribution of interests.

As for corruption, what kind of joke is this? You can obviously get money by robbing and relying on all legal means, so why bother to commit corruption?
[Meshizu Lincoln: Yes...Your Majesty Yuwen, once this kind of action, or once this kind of institution is set up, is equivalent to a dictatorship, right? Moreover, if there is such an organization, it is hard for me to imagine what kind of vicious confrontation it will trigger. It will become a knife, hurting others and hurting yourself. 】

Lincoln couldn't help but frown. He immediately felt that this was a tool of authoritarian centralization and was very unsuitable for their American soil.

[Mei Xuanzong Jackson: Oh, Your Majesty Yuwen, can you tell me about this system of supervising hundreds of officials you mentioned? Or, how do you deal with corruption there? 】

Only Jackson was a little interested.

Ok?
Ok?
what's the situation?
Zhu Houzhao was surprised again. Is it idle to fight against corruption? Undemocratic? tool?
[Emperor Zhou Xuan Yuwen Yun: Slow down...what's going on? You guys seem surprised? Didn't you have this organization before? Or, there are no corrupt officials in your place? Do you still need me to teach you how to deal with corruption? Catch corrupt officials and kill them directly to serve as a warning to others! 】

Zhu Houzhao was very surprised. They had never killed corrupt officials in such a long history, right?

[American Taizu Washington: Huh? Catch the corrupt officials and kill them directly. Is this so radical and extreme? 】

[Meliezu Louis XVI: Killing corrupt officials... Well, there seems to be no precedent for people being killed for corruption here, right? Your Majesty Yuwen, is your treatment of corrupt officials so simple and brutal? 】

At this moment, Louis XVI was surprised by Zhu Houzhao's casual handling method.

There is no way, the entire West... There may have been anti-corruption actions during the ancient Roman period, but they would not be punished with death for corruption. Instead, they would be directly physically wiped out with more simple and crude rebellion and treason.

After all, the sanctity of personal property has long existed here in the West.

Don't worry about how I got my property, it's sacred and inviolable anyway.

Louis XVI thought about it carefully and couldn't find such an example for a while.

What? Are there no examples of killing corrupt officials?
Zhu Houzhao was even more surprised.

[Emperor Zhou Xuan Yuwen Yun: Wait...don't you have corrupt officials? What about the more famous corrupt officials? 】

Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but ask. This really broke his cognition. After all, there was Zhu Yuanzhang, the ancestor of the anti-corruption pioneer. It was difficult for him to understand that there were no examples of corrupt officials being killed. They even said that killing corrupt officials seemed radical and extreme?
Zhu Houzhao's head was full of question marks.

At this moment, Eastern and Western ideas collided again.

[Meliezu Louis XVI: A more famous corrupt official? I don't seem to be impressed. The only one who is impressed is the Roman Emperor Nero. He seemed to be greedy, and his end was not very good, but his death was not entirely due to greed. 】

Louis XVI gave an example that was very powerful: only the emperor was corrupt.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: Haha, Your Majesty Louis XVI, I am afraid you have selectively forgotten your French Mazarin. Isn’t he the biggest corrupt official? As soon as Louis XIV came to power, he completely took over all his property, and only then did he become the Sun King. 】

Cleveland immediately gave Louis XVI another eyedrop.

[Meliezu Louis XVI:...]

[American Taizu Washington: Bishop Giulio Raimondo Massarino is not considered a corrupt official, right? 】

As soon as this joke came out, Washington also thought of it.

Giulio Raimundo Masarino, also known as Mazarin, served as prime minister and godfather of the young King Louis XIV and was favored by the Queen Mother. At that time, he strengthened the centralization of power internally, rectified the government, adopted mercantilism, and gave Louis Fourteen laid a good foundation, just like Zhang Juzheng.

As soon as Louis XIV took office, he took advantage of him.

[Meixuanzong Jackson: I have also thought about it carefully. We really have no experience of corrupt officials being killed here, and there are no well-known corrupt officials. So, Your Majesty Yuwen, your side... is very effective and effective in dealing with corrupt officials? You can tell me, let me listen. 】

[American Taizong Jefferson: Jackson, what do you want to do? To deal with corruption, this is a centralized method that only backward feudal imperial power would use! I asked you to find ways to solve the political problem, not to solve the corrupt people physically! You are flipping the table so that no one can eat, but you are eating alone. You are rejecting democracy! 】

Jefferson was a little panicked. He hoped for the wisdom of future generations, and he didn't want future generations to do this!

[Mercy Lincoln: President Jefferson... By the way, I seem to have forgotten to tell you. The one you mentioned about Washington I is not quite accurate. President Jackson...he is the president who is a bit like an emperor in our United States. We all call him Andrew I. He is personally an authoritarian representative. I am curious about His Majesty Yuwen’s suggestion. I am very curious about it. normal. 】

Lincoln was not surprised at all, just like Jackson. Zhu Houzhao was once again shocked. There really is no more famous corrupt official!
Are there so many countries in the West really not afraid that their country will be eaten up by moths?

Do not……

Maybe they really aren't afraid.

Because Jefferson made it clear that they themselves are an interest group that divides the country and the country. If they are asked to punish corruption, wouldn't they be dealing with themselves?

Zhu Houzhao suddenly felt understood again.

In the United States under the two-party system, the country, country, and country are not the business of any party. Instead, they are equivalent to public ownership, and anyone can take it and eat it.

On the contrary, they, the Ming Dynasty, the Song Dynasty, the Han Dynasty, etc., belong to the world, and the country, the country, and the country belong to their own family. Of course, they must be as ruthless as the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves towards outsiders who eat away at their own property.

After understanding this underlying logic, Zhu Houzhao was somewhat able to accept it.

[Emperor Zhou Xuan Yuwen Yun: Ridiculous... In all your years of history, there have been no corrupt officials! ? We can pull out a few casually here, such as Dong Xian of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhang Rang, Zhao Zhong, General He Jin in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, etc... Anti-corruption actions are also carried out in every dynasty, one after another. Bo, for those corrupt officials, they beheaded and exiled...]

Accept it or accept it, Zhu Houzhao still complained on the trumpet.

[What’s more, we also have a complete monitoring setup! The imperial censors and censors of the Qin Dynasty, and the governors of the Western Han Dynasty... These are a group of people we specially select. They don't do other things. They specialize in supervising officials or local officials to see if they have colluded with powerful people, committed corruption, squeezed the people's power, etc. If the evidence is proven, you can kill corrupt officials directly, dismember them, exile them thousands of miles away, confiscate their homes and exterminate their families...]

[You say you are not corrupt...either you are all corrupt together, or you are really more upright and honest, but this is nonsense. I do not believe that your moral level is so high. Compared with you, even if we sell our official positions and become corrupt officials In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, when there were many rampant crimes, all I could say was honesty, integrity, humility and democracy. 】

He couldn't imagine the situation of Western officialdom. Don't they care about the lives of ordinary people?
In such a situation, a Jinyiwei or Dongchang is even more needed!

However, he was the only one in the group who felt that this was abnormal.

[Louis XVI: Can you still treat corrupt officials like this...Aren't you afraid that the nobles or bureaucrats will overthrow your monarch by doing this? 】

Louis XVI felt incredible.

[Emperor Xuan of Zhou Dynasty Yuwen Yun: Overthrow? I am doing justice for heaven! You can directly gain the support of the people! I am a wise king, who dares to overthrow me? Louis XVI, you are the emperor after all, don’t you have this natural and correct power? 】

[Meliezu Louis XVI: No. Put it this way... I feel that our French king is not as comfortable as you are. Over there, being the emperor is too comfortable and willful. 】

In his grief, Louis XVI became even more envious of the Eastern emperor.

[Meixuanzong Jackson: Acting for heaven... won the support of citizens. So... in fact, the monarchs in the East were more advanced and noble than us even a thousand years ago in terms of how they treated their citizens and did not harm their interests. And this is the correct way to govern that truly makes the country good, right? 】

There is no doubt that Jackson was shaken as soon as this set of systems and measures came out, especially since he was born at the bottom of the class and had personal experience of the corruption at the bottom of the United States.

Furthermore, he is no longer just considering the issue from the perspective of the Democratic Party, but also from the perspective of the entire American country and the entire American citizenry.

[Meshizu Lincoln: President Jackson, I advise you not to be tempted by Satan. His Majesty Yuwen is a feudal monarch. He can do this because their entire country's property belongs to them. But our America is different. It belongs to everyone. If you do this, it won’t work in our America! 】

Feeling that Jackson was shaken, Lincoln hurriedly comforted him.

[American Yingzong Cleveland: President Jackson, no matter what, I support you! From the perspective of the country, His Majesty Yuwen and the others are obviously right! If you don't do this, America's interests will sooner or later be controlled by big financial groups and big families. In fact, it is no different from the private ownership of feudal monarchs! 】

Cleveland still unequivocally supported Jackson's dictatorship.

[American Taizu Washington: Jackson, are you really attracted by His Majesty Yuwen? I've just started to show off, and I'm so disliked by Jefferson. If you do this... it may directly trigger a civil war in advance. Do you have any soldiers? Have money? 】

Washington could hardly sit still.

[Emperor Zhou Xuan Yuwen Yun: Haha, why are there no soldiers? Didn’t Cleveland provide a map of the distribution of gold? Can’t we raise an army even if we have gold? Jackson, I support you! Build a censorship platform! I've already chosen a name for you, just call it America Yushitai! Be ruthless to those corrupt officials! It is stipulated that as long as the embezzlement exceeds sixty taels... no, six kilograms of gold, the skin will be directly stripped and stuffed as grass! 】

Zhu Houzhao saw the excitement as a big deal and hoped that Jackson would absorb his views instead of exporting Western culture to him.

They are good at fighting corruption.

He also wants to export some of Taizu's anti-corruption shock to them, and cannot let corrupt officials in the West go unpunished.
