Chapter 5238: Independent dismissal from office due to merits and demerits
Liu Jingxuan laughed loudly and said: "You describe the emperor as a sacrificial cattle and sheep, slaves, are you really not afraid of destroying the nine tribes?"
Liu Yu sneered: "In fact, these emperors after the abdication were almost exterminated. They were unable to deal with such powerful ministers when they were alive. Will I still be afraid of them after they die? The unlimited power of the king is proof of this.
Things that are not feasible are just myths created by Confucianism to emphasize the hierarchical order. We people do not need to believe in these. In the future, I will make the people of the world no longer believe in these."
Liu Jingxuan put away his smile and said seriously: "You said that if the emperor does not represent the public world and the people of the world, then who can? In the future, if you want to make your ideas accepted by the people of the world, you must first become the emperor.
Emperor, if you then set up such a political affairs hall to target and restrict the emperor, aren't you afraid that no one will believe what you say? If someone who wants to monopolize power in the future comes to the political affairs hall, and then they will drive you out of the emperor's position.
If you take the position yourself and then go back to the old path of practicing divine right of kings and inheriting the throne after the father dies, aren't you just making wedding clothes for others?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Therefore, the candidates for the first generation political hall, including their functions, must be carefully selected and find people who are truly selfless. Ah Shou, you said that you are willing to hand over the money in your hands because you trust me unconditionally.
I am very grateful for the army and power, but what I hope is that in the future you can use this trust in me to trust and love people all over the world, because what I give you is not because of how good my personal feelings are, such as
When I joined Beifu, could our acquaintance be due to our personal relationship?"
Liu Jingxuan murmured: "In this way, it is true as you said. Our acquaintance is not because of the personal friendship that we have known since childhood as children of aristocratic families. In fact, I have been with Xie Yan's three sons since childhood.
Growing up together, they were my playmates since childhood, but we disliked each other. On the contrary, it was you. I only wanted to come over and meet you after hearing about your reputation in Jingkou. As for you towards me,
That’s because I never knew him.”
Liu Yu nodded: "So, under normal circumstances, our acquaintance, mutual acquaintance, and friendship are because we have always joined the army to serve the country and joined the Beifu Army together. And the life and death between comrades and comrades is also because we are in the army together."
, there is military discipline and brotherhood. Fundamentally speaking, we are brought together because of the country. The brotherhood among us in the Beifu Army is also based on joining the army to serve the country and sacrificing our lives to protect the people and defend our country.
Under this premise.”
Liu Jingxuan said with a smile: "I understand when you say this. In the final analysis, we join the army to protect the country. It's just to protect the country. We have our own army. To us, the country is more like what we use to protect the country."
It’s just a title to realize personal rights and interests.”
Liu Yuzheng said: "Actually, the existence of the state is to coordinate everyone in the world, so that everyone can engage in different jobs and make different contributions. In other words, people have different divisions of labor, and the state is to coordinate this kind of
Those who divide labor, those who are officials and generals, carry out the division of labor in management, the farmers in the fields carry out the division of labor in farming and weaving, the generals in the army carry out the division of labor in fighting and killing thieves, stabilizing the world, and defending the country, while the small merchants and hawkers carry out the division of labor.
It is the division of labor that produces goods other than food and clothing for people's needs. Everyone performs their own duties and makes different contributions to the country according to their own abilities and occupations. The so-called power refers to the control of these different divisions of labor and
Contribution, different distribution and management. When I say that high and low should be treated equally, this is what I mean."
Liu Jingxuan nodded and said: "I understand what you mean. What you want to say is that being an official or a general is nothing more than a profession. The profession is different. Power is just a work tool assigned to you by the country and the court. It is the same as being assigned by the government.
Just like giving a hoe to a farmer, it is for you to serve the country and benefit the people, not to use these powers to seek benefits for yourself and your family beyond the legal system, right?"
Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Exactly, just like when we were soldiers, the court and the country gave us armor and weapons. The purpose is for us to use these weapons to kill thieves, serve the country, and protect our homes and people. We are not allowed to hold them.
These weapons are used to oppress people, massacre people, and steal money for themselves and their families to squander."
Liu Jingxuan laughed: "When you explain it like this, I understand. Just like we need to retire from the army and return home after the war, the weapons must be returned to the country. Similarly, as long as the term of office ends, officials must also return to their hometowns.
If he dismisses his official position and returns to his hometown, the power in his hands must be returned to the country."
Liu Yu said seriously: "Yes, just like we all understand and understand that when our soldiers serve as soldiers, the weapons in their hands and the armor on their bodies cannot be taken home. They can only be kept in the military camp. In fact, when we are officers,
For the same reason, when you are an official, you cannot use these powers to harm the country or harm the interests of the people for your own personal gain. In fact, these have been expressly prohibited by national law.
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, we have never been able to abide by it properly, so I want to establish a political hall, which is to have a truly public-minded and selfless organization to do a good job in implementation and supervision."
Liu Jingxuan said in a deep voice: "The supervision matter, according to what you said, is probably not just as simple as the censor checking for corruption. It is to comprehensively review the officials, the generals' political and military duties, isn't it?
Is it equivalent to the former military supervisors, postal supervisors, etc., who have great powers?"
Liu Yu nodded: "Yes, the Political Affairs Hall needs to comprehensively monitor and manage the daily work of civil servants and generals. It is not to supervise their personal ethics, such as filial piety, but the most important thing is to assess their work. If
If you are competent and do well, you will be rewarded and rewarded; if you are derelict and incompetent, you will be punished according to national laws and regulations."
Liu Jingxuan raised his brows: "Then what if the officials are corrupt, but they also enrich themselves and enrich themselves; the generals, although they win the battles, are not merciful to the soldiers and deduct military pay, so what?
Where to deal with it?”
Liu Yu said in a deep voice: "The merits should be divided clearly. Those who have merit will be rewarded without mistake, and those who have made mistakes will be dealt with according to the national law. This way, both sides are consistent. It is like leading an army on an expedition. You have the merit of destroying the enemy and conquering the city, but you send troops to plunder.
, to enrich one's own pockets, those who should be rewarded will be rewarded, and those who should be dismissed from office or even jailed will be punished according to the law. Of course, it is allowed to use titles to compensate for crimes. This was also stipulated in our military merit system before, and it can continue. However,
To plead guilty can only prevent him from going to jail or even being imprisoned. He can only be beheaded. This official position cannot be retained." (End of Chapter)
