Chapter 640: Anti-corruption Storm(1/2)
In the Ming Dynasty officialdom.
Or in the dynastic officialdom of the Central Plains.
There is an unspoken rule that cannot be explained, and together with all other unspoken rules, it forms the dark side rule under the ancient official culture system of the Central Plains.
If a person dies and leaves his official position, he will not investigate any past sins.
Although such unspoken rules may sometimes make mistakes, there will be several wise and powerful emperors who will bring back officials who have buried their land or returned home to punish them for their crimes.
But overall, when an official is no longer an official or has died, what he does will disappear.
This is not a special power that officials who have been dismissed or died have gained for themselves.
But those who are alive and still stand in the officialdom have set unspoken rules for their future.
Three years of Qing Dynasty prefect, there were 100,000 silver silver.
I made money in the officialdom and gave it to others. When I went home alone, I naturally had to take the money to enjoy my life.
This is the common perception of most people.
Therefore, when Zou Xueyu, under the instruction of Zhu Yunyu, launched a commercial tax corruption case in the territory of the 18th Prefectures of Zhili Road, which could be traced back to the first year of Hongwu, immediately encountered opposition from most of the courts.
Even if you are full of righteousness and have never violated the strict laws of the Ming Dynasty in the past, you will choose to object at this time.
Unspoken rules are like open rules, and they are not allowed to be changed.
The ancient dynasty had its own operating rules.
"I am against the request of the Governor General of Zhili to trace back to the 18th Prefectures of Zhili Road, and a case of commercial tax corruption in the first year of Hongwu.
I believe that there may be some things that may be hidden by commercial taxes, but it cannot be attributed to the first year of Hongwu.
Even though there may be incidents of corruption and concealment between the first year of Hongwu and today, it is definitely not all of the eighteen palaces.
At this time, the law was very strict, and the Zhili Road was not long before it was established. People were moved and officials were corrupt. If they were allowed to ask the Zhili Governor's Office, they might have a vine-related matter. In the past twenty-eight years of the Ming Dynasty, all the commercial tax accounts involved were as vast as a sea of smoke. The books stored in the pavilion were already dusty.
When will the investigation end? Will anyone use this to commit fraud? I don’t know, but I know people’s hearts.
Zou Dutai was loyal to the country and served as the Jiaozhi Dao and Yingtian Prefecture. He has always been the country and the people. My ministers admired the loyalty of the Dutai.
Since we need to investigate the tax, I think the Supervisor can start investigating the tax since the 29th year of Hongwu this year to shock the small number of small tax deficits in the 18th governments of Zhili Road."
In Wenhua Hall, there was an official from the Ministry of Revenue's Department of Revenue. He spoke in a deep voice and refuted that Zou Xueyu's request to open the investigation of all commercial tax accounts of the 18th Mansion of Zhili Road since the first year of Hongwu.
Zou Xueyu was wearing a big red robe and stood at the front of the court civil servant train.
His face was not very good-looking.
Even though the Zhili Governor's Office has now begun to retrieve archives from the Ministry of Revenue and to check the commercial tax accounts of the 18th Prefectures of Zhili Road for more than 20 years, as long as the dispute in the court today finally ruled to prohibit his behavior, after resigning from the court, he could only return to the Governor's Office with unwillingness to stop this matter that could force the local government office of Zhili Road.
A bunch of silverfish!
Zou Xueyu cursed in her heart.
He knew this Ministry of Revenue, who stood up to oppose his own Ministry of Revenue, was a straightforward person in the past and had always been honest as an official.
But he would object to the matter he proposed.
Zou Xueyu couldn't help but look at Xia Yuanji, the Minister of Revenue, beside him.
Natsuhara Yoshi gave a helpless look.
Although he is the Minister of Revenue, he has no power to command or control the officials of the Department.
This is the privilege of the Daming Law's officials.
Zou Xueyu became increasingly unwilling to accept it and looked up at the crown prince standing on the steps.
Zhu Yunxiu did not expect that he would cause such a loud opposition in the court by investigating the past commercial tax accounts of the 18th Prefectures of Zhili Road.
He underestimated the power of the unspoken rules above the court.
Looking at the dozens of officials kneeling on the golden bricks in front of him, Zhu Yunxiu felt helpless.
Among these people, many of them do things for officials and will not make any mistakes.
Even if one or two people make mistakes occasionally, it is because the national affairs are cheap.
Are they afraid?
Zhu Yunqiu knew very well that they were not afraid.
Then why do they object?
Perhaps it is because of a sense of self-prevention in the official system.
The Ministry of Personnel’s Department also stood up, after the Ministry of Revenue’s Department.
"Report to Your Majesty, Zou Tutai wants to investigate the concealment of the Zhili Dao Commercial Tax. I think it is a good policy that can be implemented."
Just when Zou Xueyu thought this person was going to speak for him.
The official of the Ministry of Personnel changed his subject: "However, it has been nearly thirty years since the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. How many people and matters are involved during this period? Countless local officials have already left their posts and returned home, and even worse, they have been buried in peace.
For thirty years, there have been people who concealed taxes. How many people are still businessmen?
Zou Dutai wanted to investigate the Zhili Dao business tax case, but I thought this move was to clarify the atmosphere of Zhili Dao's shopping malls and to uphold the innocence of the Zhili Dao. It was a great act of goodness.
It was just that the commercial tax accounts of thirty years have been investigated suddenly. If an unjust case is initiated, wouldn’t it be contrary to the original intention and intention of supervising the Taiwan Strait?
If the investigation begins in the 29th year of Hongwu this year, it will be difficult to achieve the effect of deterrence and correction.
I believe that since the 24th year of Hongwu, the Zhili Governor's Office has vigorously investigated all commercial tax accounts since then.
In this way, the losses of the court can be recovered, the spirit of upright and submissive, and the people can be beneficial to the country and the people, and avoid disasters. Only then can we be the best."
Since the 24th year of Hongwu, we have been tracing the commercial taxes that are hidden by Zhili Road!
Zou Xueyu's eyelids sank.
These people really know how to choose time.
Even Zhu Yunqiu, who was standing on the steps, couldn't help but look back at the old man sitting high on the imperial throne.
At this time, another minister, the Ministry of Justice, who had always had a very low presence in the court, walked out.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Your Majesty, my Ming Dynasty worked hard to govern. Under Your Majesty's leadership, we will carry forward the past and open up the future and prosper the country. At the beginning of the country, we will have His Majesty's thunderous journey. Now, the world is peaceful, the four regions are peaceful, the country is stable, and the imperial heirs will continue. It will only increase blood if there is no big move. After being overbearing, we will use the kingly way to rest with the people, and accumulate blessings for the prosperous Ming Dynasty.
The investigation of the commercial tax accounts of the 18 prefectures of Zhili Road since the 24th year of Hongwu can demonstrate Your Majesty's majesty and your benevolence.
All officials and people are hiding under Your Majesty’s benevolent government, and I wish that the country of our Ming Dynasty will last forever, the royal family will be peaceful, and the royal heirs will flourish."
Under Zhu Yunxiu's gaze, the corners of his old man's eyes moved slightly.
He suddenly exclaimed in his heart that something was wrong.
It was obvious that the old man was really moved.
Everyone knows that in the past twenty years, the emperor has been a decisive person. Even those meritorious and old ministers who followed him and started with Huaiyou will definitely be severely attacked by the emperor as long as they dare to block the future of the country.
The bloody case created by Emperor Hongwu is still vivid in everyone's mind.
Everyone can only surrender to the emperor's majesty and work in fear.
However, in the past two years, there have been few murders in the court that are as involved as in the past.
They habitually ignored the cases caused by the noble Qin King of the Ming Dynasty outside the capital.
They only knew that the emperor was increasingly reluctant to take care of state affairs and was more willing to train his great-grandson.
It is more appropriate to say that it is training, but it is more appropriate to say that it is nourishment.
After all, he is still only a great-grandson of Aba Aba, and he is still not as good as being trained.
The emperor has gradually begun to have more kindness and tenderness from his ancestors.
This is also the reason why so many people dare to object in the court today.
They were inferring and speculating whether the emperor began to be willing to reason with them rationally, rather than just using his knife to reason with him at any time.
"allow."
Just as Zhu Yunxiu was thinking about how to persuade the old man to change his mind and not believe the opposition of these people, Zhu Yuanzhang's voice had already heard behind him.
The emperor's words and words were made, and in front of the civil and military officials of the court, he determined the commercial tax filing in the territory of the 18th Prefectures of Zhili Road, and only traced back from the 24th year of Hongwu.
"Your Majesty is wise."
The ministers in the hall called the emperor wise and powerful.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the ministers in front of him calmly, curled his lips quietly, and waved his hand: "I think it's okay today, I feel tired, so I will part with them."
Sun Gou'er immediately walked out from the side.
"All ministers and workers will retire from the court."
Zhu Yunyu's eyes twitched. Seeing the old man's impatient look of going back to the Qianqing Palace to play with his grandchildren, he felt that his old man was really helpless.
"If you look back, you have to get the custody of Xiaomaoqiu!"
Zhu Yunxiu made up his mind, but felt that it was really life-threatening to grab his own stupid little ball from the old man.
He shook his head randomly.
