Facts have proven that as long as the bureaucracy exerts strong pressure from its leaders, its work efficiency will be the most efficient in the world.
There is no need to wait until the next day.
At dusk that night, all the information about Xu Guan, a native of Changling, was already on Liu Che's desk.
The internal history, the Xiuyiwei and the Shaofu almost dug out all the eighteen generations of this guy's ancestors.
Liu Che just briefly browsed through this guy's information and ordered: "Send an order to the internal history officer to arrest Xu Guan immediately!"
Because, the Neishi Yamen reported: There is no celebrity named Xu Guan in Changling County!
"Tell the Chancellor to immediately seal up all the files in Lantai, and immediately send the Chancellor to look through all the memorials and official correspondence related to the recommendation of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen since the first year of his reign, and find all the documents related to Xu Guan!"
"No!" Several attendants immediately took the order and left.
"Your Majesty is worried..." Wang Dao asked quietly from the side.
Liu Che nodded and said nothing.
There is no record of a celebrity named Xu Guan in Changling County under the internal history.
But there is a man named Xu Guan in Shiqu Pavilion.
Moreover, this person also passed the double test of Da Honglu and the Shaofu, and became the candidate of the Han Dynasty to supervise and educate the Yi and Di protons.
Under what circumstances could such a ridiculous thing happen?
What the answer is is self-evident.
The household registration system of the Han Dynasty was copied from the Qin Dynasty.
The core content is the four-character system of "weeding households and bringing together the people".
What does it mean to create a household system for the people?
In layman's terms, the government uses families as units to register the people under its rule.
The registration content includes the name, age, appearance, political background, and assets (including movable and immovable property) of the household head and family members. (Note 1)
Based on this, taxes were levied on the people and corvees were apportioned.
Of course, there are black households among the people (that is, people who are not listed in the government household registration book), and businessmen (they belong to another class, are registered in the city registration, and are managed by city registration officials).
However, it is impossible for Xu Guan to claim that he is from Changling, but is not listed in the Changling household registration book.
the reason is simple.
The rulers of the Han Dynasty had standards for officials or local celebrities.
If you want to be an official, or want to be an official candidate, there is an iron law. It is placed in front of everyone, that is, the Han law stipulates that only people with more than ten years of wealth or members of such families are eligible to become official candidates.
, three old alternatives.
Of course, if you are so famous that you alarm the emperor and the emperor orders you to be removed from office, you are not included in this list.
Obviously, this Xu Guan is not Lord Sima Ji, let alone Jia Yi.
His fame is almost unknown.
Then he must meet the standard of having a family fortune of 100,000 yuan or more.
Otherwise, the power of the system will block him from the bureaucracy.
But now he is not in Changling's household registration book. What does this mean?
This shows that this person’s identity is fake!
In the Han Dynasty, what kind of people needed to fake their identities?
Liu Che couldn't help but think of the story of brothers Ji Bu and Ji Xin.
Because these two brothers have done things incognito and disappeared from wealthy families one after another.
Ji Bu kept his name anonymous because he was wanted by Liu Bang. Ji Xin kept his name hidden because he committed murder and committed a crime.
But compared to Ji Bu Ji Xin, Xu Guan did it more thoroughly.
He actually concealed himself from the entire Han Dynasty bureaucracy and openly became a member of this group!
If Qin Shihuang knew something, he would probably be rolling in his grave. If Shang Yang knew about it, he would probably get up and curse!
You must know that back then, Ji Bu Shang could only hide secretly in the Zhu family's manor. Ji Xin was even worse and could only escape Chang'an by hiding in the cargo box of Yuan An's carriage.
When did the Han Dynasty household registration system, which was said to be a comprehensive legal network and not leaking out, turned into a sieve!
Internal history, Shaofu, Da Honglu, can a mentally retarded person be treated like a monkey?
All these anomalies revealed to Liu Che a possibility that even he was somewhat uncertain about.
An hour later, the attendants sent to Lantai to browse and search the files came back.
They reported their results to Liu Che.
Thanks to the Qin Empire, the Han Dynasty had a very complete archival system.
Take the palace registration system for officials as an example. Officials who enter and leave the palace have bamboo talisman and bronze talisman as tokens, which record the official's name, position, and appearance. Every time he enters and exits the palace, he must be recorded.
How could someone like Xu Guan, who was hired by the Shaofu and Dahonglu and approved by the late emperor, not leave any files or traces behind?
After hearing the results, Liu Che waved his hand and said: "You have not been to Lantai today. Tell Ji An to destroy the Lantai files!"
"promise!"
The attendants took the order and left.
Liu Che closed his eyes and shook his head.
He walked out of the palace gate and looked in a certain direction of Chang'an City. He really didn't know how to describe the feeling in his heart.
"Father Emperor, I never expected that I would wipe your butt sometimes..." Liu Che sighed in his heart.
The results shown in the Lantai files are already very clear.
This man named Xu Guan was recommended by Uncle Beigong and approved by Langzhong Ling Zhou Ren. He entered the list of Shaofu in the summer and April of the sixth year of Emperor Taizong Xiaowen's second year.
Zhou Ren was the late emperor's confidant.
And Uncle Beigong is even more amazing!
The status of this great eunuch during the reign of Emperor Xiaowen was equivalent to that of Wang Dao who is now around Liu Che.
More importantly, Uncle Beigong has always been a supporter of the late emperor.
Emperor Taizong Xiaowen died in Weiyang Palace in the summer and July of the following year. At that time, the late emperor had actually assumed the power of the emperor and was named the supervisor of the country.
In other words, this matter was approved by the late emperor.
Without the approval of the late emperor, Uncle Beigong would not be stupid enough to recommend a shady person, and Zhou Ren, a confidant of the late emperor, would not be able to sign the document.
Liu Che didn't know, didn't know, and didn't want to figure out why the late emperor allowed a gangster to enter the Shaofu and become the teacher of the protons of the Minyue Kingdom.
Although in fact, Liu Che had roughly guessed the reason for this matter.
However, Liu Che would nip anything that might affect the late emperor's reputation in the bud.
He has even erased that speculation in his mind now.
Because, no matter whether what Liu Che guessed was true or not, no matter what role the late emperor played in this, if anyone knew about it, the majesty of the imperial power would be gone!
only……
"We have to find a scapegoat to take the responsibility for this matter..." Liu Che rolled his eyes: "Well, it's best to be a dead person, because a dead person won't protest, a dead person won't argue, and a dead person won't reverse the verdict.
What day!”
"It's you!" Liu Che thought in his heart, and turned around and said: "Tell the internal history that Xu Guan will be killed immediately after he is caught, and at the same time, let people call the Minyue King to Weiyang Palace tomorrow..."
After a pause, Liu Che added: "Tell all relevant people that Xu Guan was a thief from Deng Tong who accepted bribes and cheated his way into the Shaofu Mansion. Do you understand?"
For this pot, only Deng Tong is the most suitable.
First, he is recognized by the world as a traitor, a lucky minister, and a villain.
Second, he died.
Third, Deng Tong had the ability and motivation to do such a thing. (To be continued.)
