"Ah snee..."

Emperor Chongzhen sat on the dragon chaise, rubbed his nose, and shook his head with a smile. Who is talking about me behind his back? I guess there is nothing good.

After the imperial decree of the Yuan case and the cabinet's powers were clarified, the atmosphere in the court was quietly changing.

A group of pragmatic and capable ministers were promoted by him, given corresponding authority, and doing their best in their respective positions.

"Han Qing... The state has had a series of problems recently. What do you, the left censor of the Censorate, think in your heart?" Emperor Chongzhen, who was calm, looked at Han Jisi who was standing lying on his back and spoke.

"I am increasingly feeling that there are big problems in the administration of the Ming Dynasty. If it is not rectified, then the Ming Dynasty will sooner or later have big problems."

Is the emperor trying to rectify the administration?

Will the corruption case be used to expose the power?

Han Jisi frowned slightly, and he was secretly exploring what Emperor Chongzhen said.

Since he replaced Liu Zongzhou and served as the Left Censor of the Censorate, many of the vacant positions in the Censorate have been added.

"Report to Your Majesty~"

Han Jisi bowed and said, "From the case of Tong's enemy to the corruption case of Jingtong, many problems have indeed been exposed. Recently, my colleagues have also discussed this matter with colleagues at the Censorate.

I feel that it is necessary to conduct a more comprehensive inspection on the national court, especially on the six ministries. This matter is important. If it is not purged, it may be shaken."

Emperor Chongzhen was quite satisfied with Han Jisi, the newly appointed Zuodu Censor. At least he would not openly confront him, the Emperor Ming, like Liu Zongzhou and others, for the influence of the court, under the influence of some ministers.

.

As the supervisory institution of the Ming Dynasty, the Censorate had a heavy responsibility, which was to rectify the administration of officials and shock the officialdom.

However, due to years of party struggles, since the late Wanli period, the important organization of the Censorate was either controlled by the Qi, Chu, Zhejiang Party, or the Donglin Party, and finally controlled by the eunuch Party.

This has gradually made the Censorate have a taste of becoming a decoration.

Within the power of the Ministry of Personnel, the Beijing inspection once every six years is a major plan every three years.

The assessment system for Beijing officials and foreign officials is respectively targeted.

In this unhealthy atmosphere, it has become a weapon for various factions in the court to attack political enemies back and forth.

In name, it was to share the worries of the country and eliminate bad officials, but in fact it was a matter of the party's confrontation with the differences, which brought great harm and impact to the Ming Dynasty.

"You can only be responsible for these things by the Censorate."

Emperor Chongzhen picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "I have some things to say about Han Qing. And the Censorate will implement it in the near future."

Han Jisi listened carefully, but his intuition told him that what the emperor was going to say must be a big deal.

After all, after the emperor personally led the army to defeat the Jianlu Eight Banners, his entire political style changed greatly.

"Since I ascended the throne, the country has caused a lot of trouble."

Emperor Chongzhen put down the teacup and continued: "Especially for the people in Beijing, most of the officials are good, but there are always a small group of people who are incorrect in their hearts.

Han Qing also knew that the current dynasty can be said to be internal and external troubles. Behind the seemingly calm, there are many bad policies to deal with.

If there is no way to correct the trend, correct the mentality, and share the worries of the Ming and the people of the Ming Dynasty, then how can we restrain the local officials? Let the local officials share the worries of the country and the court one by one?"

When Emperor Chongzhen ascended the throne, he showed great disgust and hatred for the eunuch party headed by Wei Zhongxian, and felt that the root cause of the decline of the Ming Dynasty was that they did evil deeds.

Therefore, when Wei Zhongxian, the powerful eunuch, was defeated and exiled, he began to vigorously dismantle the eunuch party officials and promote the Donglin Party led by Han Yu. This also made the Donglin Party, which had disappeared from the Tianqi Dynasty, once again ascended the Ming Dynasty.

The stage of the hall.

But Emperor Chongzhen at that time did not understand that the root cause of the decline of the Ming Dynasty was not caused by a certain faction, but by years of party struggles that led to serious corruption in the administration, and the result of many reasons.

If there is only one faction in the Ming Dynasty, then when encountering problems and emergencies, there will be many constraints.

"...I plan to call the Censorate to select a group of young censors and dispatch them to the Ministry and Temple and other offices, and even the cabinet, to be dispatched."

Emperor Chongzhen looked serious and said, "Take the responsibilities of the Censorate to every government office in the dynasty to ensure that the responsibility system and accountability system can be implemented effectively.

Instead of just being an empty talk, if any government office has problems, the Censorate will be able to find the problem as soon as possible.

If I finally ask me to know, it was revealed for no reason, no matter who it involves or the corresponding dispatched censor, they will be severely punished by the laws and regulations of the state and the court!"

When Han Jisi heard this, he was shocked and his face changed slightly. According to what the emperor said, the power of the Censorate had undoubtedly increased greatly.

After all, the previous Censorate was responsible for the matter of impeachment and impeachment, so it was relatively passive.

But if all the yamen under the jurisdiction of the State Administration of China have dispatched supervisors and censors, it will undoubtedly change from passive to active.

But there is never such a precedent in the Ming Dynasty. If the ministers in the court knew about this, what attitude would they show?

"...Your Majesty, will this matter be settled with the cabinet first and discussed it before the court discusses it?" Han Ji thought about it and bowed.

"After all, such a thing has never happened in the country and the Censorate, there is no precedent to follow what should be done."

"Need not!"

Emperor Chongzhen waved his hand and said, "The matter I mentioned is the matter of the Censorate and has nothing to do with other government agencies of the State Council.

If you say this, even if you discuss it for a year or two, I’m afraid there will be no results.

You are the Zuodu Censor whom I promoted to, and to inspect the administration of the state and purify the court and the officialdom. You are the responsibility. Do you dare not do these things?"

Emperor Chongzhen was still very clear about Han Jisi's inner thoughts, it was nothing more than that the Ming Dynasty had never done such a thing.

And there were a group of supervisors and censors around him, always watching them do things. No matter who they were, they were extremely resistant in their hearts.
