Officials themselves are even more of a class that transcends secular rights.

As Master Qian Mu said in the gains and losses of all dynasties, why did the Qing Dynasty support the Eight Banners' children for more than 200 years?

Not all the Eight Banners were Manchus, but they were definitely the most loyal supporters and defenders of the Qing Dynasty, and even the emperor was a tool for dictatorship to rule the world.

The Eight Banners are a class.

In fact, from a fundamental point of view, the same is true for the officials of the Ming Dynasty.

Compared to them, the emperor actually needs them more and cannot do without them.

Whether it is an emperor or an official, they are actually a member of this community of interests. The emperor can decide who to give more benefits, but he cannot ruin the pot of eating!

The old man can kill corrupt officials at will, but Zhu Yunyu, the heir, cannot kill them at will, nor can he be cruelly killed. In that case, no one will truly abide by the new system that the emperor and the court want to establish.

This will lead to the new system policy being empty, officials are overly involved, and the system and personnel cannot match.

It will cause the monarch and ministers of the Ming Dynasty to be disunited and moral, and the government orders will not be promoted smoothly.

This is also why the old man repeatedly warned Zhu Yunxi not to learn from him. No matter how powerful a dynasty is, if two generations of murderous emperors are produced, the country is destined not to last long.

"Down from outside!" Zhu Yunxiu rubbed his heart and said to the outside hall.

The ministers outside suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and bowed in unison to retreat.

When only the confidant ministers were left in the inner hall, Zhu Yunxiu continued, "Grandman, continue talking!"

"Yes!" Xie Jin bowed his head, "Now, you want to promote the new policy nationwide, and you will work together to pay grain and pay taxes, and you will also exempt the non-commissioned officers from all kinds of privileges. If you kill the officials again, it will inevitably lead to a rebound!"

This is what Zhu Yunqiu is confused about. When facing a strong bureaucratic group, everything must be done step by step. There must be choices and advances and retreats. Even if he is the emperor, he often has to give in and bow his head tactfully.

Only by reaching this position can you really understand that zz is the art of compromise!

"You continue!" Zhu Yunxiu rubbed his temples and spoke.

Xie Jin was silent for a moment, "Take corruption as an example, there are inevitably people with great traitors and evil in the world, and human nature is inherently evil. But in my opinion, there are more or less many things that cannot be controlled by others!"

"The officialdom welcomes favors, maintaining the decency of officials, and supporting the family requires money." Xie Jin organized the words carefully, "and the salary of our Ming Dynasty has always been meager and unsustainable."

"If you have a small salary, you need to be corrupt? What is this logic? Just talk about the difficulties, why don't you talk about the privileges of being an official..." Xin Yande spoke squintly.

"Don't interrupt him!" Zhu Yunxiu still rubbed his temples, "Let the Dashen continue!"

At this time, Li Jinglong changed a wet towel from nowhere and held it in front of Zhu Yunxi, "Your Majesty, it's cold. It's too hot this day. You put it on your forehead to get rid of the fire!"

As he said that, he knelt at Zhu Yunxiu's feet again, "There is no outsider at this time. I will help you relax. It's hot, you are still wearing court boots, so you are so full of panic!"

The ice towel was placed on his forehead, and it felt refreshed. Zhu Yunxiu leaned back and stretched out his legs, waiting for Xie Jin's following.

"The old saying goes, hunger and cold are aroused by the intention of stealing. It is difficult to support the family with too little salary, so you naturally have to stretch out your hands. At the beginning, it was a small greed, but in the future it was a big greed!" Xie Jin continued, "This is how human nature is!"

"Human nature!" Zhu Yunxi smiled bitterly, "Don't I know it's human nature, but because of the word human nature, I let it go or ignore it?" As he said, he sighed, "Hey, human nature!? Haha, Emperor Taizu Gao has been rolling on his butcher knife for more than 30 years, but he can't resist the word human nature after all!"

"If you care, you must not be careless, otherwise the corruption of the administration will be the cause of the destruction of the country!" Xie Jin continued, "Your Majesty, you repeatedly mentioned that Emperor Gao had used all kinds of thunder methods in the past in the past. It should not be appropriate and should not be generalized at one time and another!"

"And, the emperor, you always say that the country must have rules and regulations. The court must have systems. So I suggest that the system be established first!" Xie Jin thought again, "The emperor once said before that the salaries of officials are too low, causing trouble, so I thought about increasing the price for everyone..."

"I understand what you mean!" Zhu Yunxi smiled, "The officials have low salaries, so they have to be corrupt and stretch out their hands. This principle is with me, and it won't work!" As he said, he pondered for a moment, "But I am not a person who is not a human being. Can I set up a bank for maintenance and support according to the official position, and the salary is... "

Immediately, he tapped the table with his finger a few times, "It's doubled according to the officials' annual salary!"

As the words came to an end, the ministers were filled with energy.

However, at this time, some of the ministers also realized that Xie Jin must have communicated with the emperor in advance on this matter. The emperor used today's corruption case to set rules for officials all over the world.

"But this kind of clean silver has the conditions!"

Sure enough, Zhu Yunxiu said, "For example, the ruling of a county, the ruling of integrity and salary are paid together. The prerequisite is that the ruling of the county will be assessed in the middle and upper class within that year. Moreover, once he finds his corruption in the future, not only will the salary of previous years and the ruling of integrity and salary of the year be recovered together!"

"I can't pay it back, his son can't pay it back, his son can't pay it back, and his grandson can't pay it back!"

"hiss!"

The ministers took a breath of air in their hearts!

"You said that the salary is small, and I will give you the integrity silver. If you give the integrity silver, you will be greedy, according to the amount of corruption and whether the world is bad, it depends on the conviction. With less than one hundred silver dollars, you will recover the salary and integrity silver and dirty silver, confiscate the property, and impart it to the army in Luzon and other places to serve!"

"Above 200, beheaded and executed."

"Above 300, listed as the treacherous ministers, and announced to the world!"

"hiss!"

Everyone gasped again, and a thought came to their minds, "So cruel!"

Although he is not as corrupt as before and is waiting to be killed, now he is divided into levels. The emperor is not unwilling to kill people, but he has formulated rules first and then killed people based on rules.

In fact, deep down in Zhu Yunxiu's heart, this is a helpless move of compromise.

If you have the Yanglian Yin, you will not be greedy? Are you fooling around!

Every year, the people have to pass through the hands of these officials. They have many tricks to make their names, and the grain is not up to standard, the copper coins and silver are incorrect, and the small bucket is replaced with a big bucket...

Moreover, every year, there is no time for all prefectures and prefectures to pay 80% of them, and they are already capable officials.

If you encounter floods, droughts and plagues again, it will be a good opportunity for officials to get rich!

It sounds very breathless, so what if I know?

Sitting in this position, Zhu Yunqiu had long understood that rule and governance were two different things, and he knew even more that he, the emperor, had to compromise.

A small impatience will cause trouble!

"You will decide the specific charter!" Zhu Yunxiu looked at his ministers again and spoke.

"Your Majesty, where does the money for raising integrity silver come from?" Zhang Ju, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, said, "You have found another big hole for me!"

"The coins used for minting are used on this." Zhu Yunxiu thought, "It's not a regular rule, let's do it first!"

Everything is afraid of becoming a fixed rule, so Zhu Yunyu never says anything to be a fixed rule and then handles it accordingly in the future.

Suddenly, he felt a sense of guilt in his heart that was laughable and crying.

All the magic weapons of the Fourth Master of Yong were copied by himself. The reason why there was no fire consumption in the Ming Dynasty was because silver dollars had been implemented long ago. However, the benefits of minting silver dollars were actually another disguised fire consumption.

The same is true for the integrity-raising silver, and the upcoming implementation of the government and gentry to pay food and taxes.

"Now, let's talk about the use of military force against Myanmar!" Zhu Yunxiu glanced out the window. At some point, it was a cicada that was not screaming.

He looked at the Duke of Wei, Xu Huizu, "Are you ready?"

"Back to the emperor! Marquis of Anlu Wu Jie, Marquis of Changxing Geng Bingwen and others were ordered to sack the unused front guards, and the first batch of about 30,000 people were about to arrive in Shandong in the name of training!" Xu Huizu said, "and then boarded the ship and headed to Myanmar!"

It is not easy to do to lay off the front guards. Even if the two noble military marquis take action, they dare not say that you have been laid off. The emperor will not support you anymore, but find an excuse to transfer it out.

"How is the morale of the army?" Zhu Yunxiu asked.

Duke Cao Li Jinglong smiled at the side, "Your Majesty, I don't have to worry about this matter!" As he said, he continued to laugh, "The old and weak among the front guards are also vulgar martial artists. After getting on the ship, the people who led the troops said that when they arrived at the place and robbed them, they were all your men. If you rob them, you will not take any penny for the soldiers. At that time, you will surely scream. Eighty-year-old veterans can carry their swords to battle!"

Zhu Yunyu is not worried about this.

The army of the Ming Dynasty, as long as you hear the word "just robbing" is invincible.
