Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 601

"I walked through the Beiping Prison a few days ago. It can be said that I was deeply moved. Every time I think about it, I just keep talking. I hope Your Highness will forgive me!"

Wang Meng bowed here and bowed.

However, Liu De waved his hands and sighed: "Your Majesty's words make Gu feel ashamed. I am the main reason for what happened in Beiping."

After Du Ruhui and Xun You heard this, they rushed out to pay respects and said, "I have neglected my duties, and I have violated Your Highness' trust! Your Highness, please punish your crimes!"

As Liu De's servants, he should have the duty of advising and assisting them. Now that Liu De said he was wrong, of course they couldn't be spared, so they rushed out to plead guilty.

"Get up!"

Liu De then motioned to Wang Meng, and said to Wang Meng, "Please speak frankly, my lord!"

Wang Meng paused and said: "Your Highness, it is less than five years since the founding of the Great Han Dynasty. Under the city of Beiping, a small headhunter relied on his power to commit such a heinous crime, which caused a lot of resentment among the people, but no one can stop him. It can be seen that other Such things in prefectures and counties are by no means uncommon, the so-called mutual protection between officials and officials, and collusion between officials and businessmen are nothing more than this!"

But Liu De couldn't sit still. What Wang Meng said was exactly what he kept thinking about. The so-called mutual protection between officials and officials, collusion between officials and businessmen, oppression of the people, and doing evil things were unavoidable even in the modern times before Liu De traveled. How can the smooth ancient times be solved?

Is there any way to avoid this from happening?
In ancient times, there was more rule of man. As long as the emperor was wise and powerful, his rule must be relatively clear. And Liu De's most important purpose when he crossed over was to proclaim the emperor's system and establish his own home world. Democracy and republic are all nonsense, Liu Deke doesn't have such lofty ideas.

So how to make his family world last longer is what Liu De has to consider.

"What teachings does the prince have?"

At this moment, Liu De was asking for advice.

"If you want the people to live and work in peace and contentment, the world is peaceful, the roads are not picked up, and the doors are not closed at night, the first thing is to rule the officials. As long as the officials are clear and can resist greed, all future troubles can be directly eliminated.

The second is supervision. Although there is the Metropolitan Procuratorate above the court and the Xuanjing Division patrols around, but due to various reasons, they cannot monitor the whole world. Some local officials even maliciously blocked the supervisors, and even the supervisors also will be bought.

Therefore, I think that the power and responsibility of the Metropolitan Procuratorate should be increased. Not only should the Metropolitan Procuratorate be established in the central government, but also supervisory censors should be established in various places to inspect prefectures and counties. It is best for these supervisory censors to be served by young scholars. Responsible, full of vigor, not contaminated with bad habits of officialdom, you can kill the bad habits of officials. "

Liu De couldn't help nodding his head and said: "What the prince said is very true, since ancient times, the administration of officials has been brought up by people, so the Imperial Academy was set up alone, hoping to train suitable officials from it.

This big man is like a tall tower, although standing on the top floor can overlook the world, but if you want the tower to be stable, the foundation is the most important, if the foundation is stable, the tower will not fall down, if the foundation is not stable, the higher you stand, the more you will fall worse.

The grassroots are all controlled by the aristocratic family and clan. Although officials are appointed and removed by the central government, once they arrive here, they are not familiar with the place where they are born. They can only rely on the local tycoons to handle government affairs and collect taxes. Opportunities, causing public grievances to accumulate. "

The aristocratic and powerful families rooted in the grassroots, these are the main forces blocking their unification.

Liu De said again: "The prince's words are very reasonable. The Guhui ordered the Metropolitan Procuratorate to establish a system according to the prince's words and inspect the counties."

Then everyone stopped talking about government affairs, but talked about other things freely.

On the other hand, Liu De was thinking about the issue of the aristocratic family growing locally. Yanzhou was killed by him from top to bottom, and blood flowed into rivers. The aristocratic family no longer dared to resist his government orders, but Jizhou and Luanzhou, including The recovered Danzhou inner family still retains a strong strength.

Even without military power, it is easier to speak at the grassroots level than in the government.

How can this problem be solved?

Liu De finally thought of a good way, a very useful way to deal with the tyrants in the early stage-relocate the tycoons.And as long as the future generations strictly follow the system set by themselves, I dare not say that 800 years is more than enough to maintain the life span of a big man for 400 years.

In history, the migration of the powerful began with Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty. The real heyday was during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. Emperor Wu of the Han issued the "Moving Mausoleum Order", using a soft "forced demolition" method to relocate the rich and powerful to the nearby capital. Maoling.

The advantage of this is that the tyrants are relocated to the capital, and the land under their command can only be sold at a low price. Who will buy it?

Of course, it is the government. The government is distributing the land to the displaced people and collecting a small amount of taxes, so that the people can settle down with the land, which is conducive to the rule of the country.

And moving the tyrants to the vicinity of the capital will directly cut off their right to control the grassroots, so that the big men can truly enjoy long-term stability.

Since the Han Dynasty, no dynasty has controlled the power of the grassroots to reach the strength of the Han Dynasty.

However, Beiping's geographical location is not suitable for this. Is it necessary to move the capital?
Liu De set his sights on Luodu, the former capital of Da Zhou.

Luodu is now in ruins, and the population of Zhongzhou is less than one-fifth of Jizhou's. The benefits of moving the capital to Luodu are absolutely huge. One of them is that Luodu's geographical location is excellent, and the goal of the big man now is to Advance in two directions, one of which is to attack Sichuan and Shu through Xizhou and move the capital to Luodu, which will help you control the battle in the southwest and will not escape your control.

It is very easy for Beiping to control Hebei, but it is still too far from the southwest, and it is not impossible to control the south.

Zhongzhou is not far from Danzhou and Luzhou. It can be said that the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty is in Zhongzhou.

And the second reason is that what he said was the migrating tyrants, the population of Zhongzhou is declining, and the migrating tyrants can fill the population of Zhongzhou without overcrowding Zhongzhou.

However, it is definitely not a good time to propose moving the capital now. Once the big man has been sorted out, Liu De is ready to leave for Luodu, use Luodu as a marching post, and let the wind out first.

Not long after, Xu Chu reported to Liu De: "Your Highness, Deputy Commander Li is asking to see you."

"Li Yuanfang is here, it seems that the matter can be finished!"

Liu De said something.

Li Yuanfang came over and reported to Liu De: "Your Highness, Uncle Diao wanted to hang himself. Fortunately, I went there in time and had already contained him. Diao's Mansion also sent troops to block it."

Liu De nodded and ordered: "Order the three divisions of Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to interrogate. Diao Shuwen ordered his subordinates to arrest the head and kill the people, exonerate others, and accept bribes. The crime is heinous and must be dealt with severely."

"Yes!"

Du Ruhui and the others rushed out to respond.
