Chu Ge sighed silently and continued to pick up the new memorial and read it.
Perhaps the only good news is that the date and memorial have been updated, and so has his physical fitness.
The previous state of being dizzy and having stars in my eyes after reading the memorial has been greatly improved.
But no matter what, his current body is that of a seventy-year-old man. Even if he is gifted with a strong spirit, he will not be able to carry it as well as ordinary young people.
Many young people in modern society cannot handle it at all after 996 and are at risk of sudden death, let alone an ancient man in his seventies.
Moreover, although young people are called 996, they can still touch fish to some extent.
But Chu Ge is now playing the role of Sheng Taizu, and he doesn't dare to fish at all.
There are piles of memorials in front of me. Reading more or less memorials seems to make no difference.
Even Chu Ge can choose not to watch it at all and just keep scrolling like this to see the ending.
But whether it is inferred from reality or from game mechanics, this approach will definitely only lead to one ending, and that is to send.
Ordinary people can fish at work because even if there is a slight flaw in their work, most of the people they interact with will find out or urge them. As long as they are not touched too much, it will basically not lead to any serious consequences.
The disadvantage of the modern company system is that it treats every employee as a screw, and everyone's work is actually replaceable, but its advantages are also here.
Since most employees' jobs are not irreplaceable, even if an employee is unable to work due to illness, the entire company can continue to operate.
Therefore, for ordinary employees, there is no big problem if they try to fish for a while.
But Chu Ge's situation at this time was completely different.
Can the emperor fish?
Of course, there are too many emperors who fish for fish.
But if you fish, you will have to bear the consequences. The consequences of the emperor fishing are much more serious than those of ordinary people. If there is an emergency, the officials will report it, but the emperor is too lazy to see the memorial.
, delayed things, what should I do?
Of course, in some particularly urgent situations, officials will definitely report to the police many times or report them in person, and it seems that there will not be too serious consequences.
But this will also lead to another question.
What if officials choose to lie about certain situations?
Officials did report the true situation, but they selectively reported part of it and concealed part of it.
You must know that there are many officials with real power in the court. If they wrest a little power from the emperor, it means they have a little more power in their hands.
The highest ideal of every scholar or official is to pretend to be an emperor and become an uncrowned king. This is an unspoken rule that all scholars know, but no one will say clearly.
If the emperor doesn't like to read memorials, then the ministers will understand this clearly and gradually adjust to it.
For example, there was an emperor in the late Dasheng Dynasty who was not interested in government affairs. Therefore, the eunuchs at that time liked to show him some key memorials when he was in the mood. At this time, the emperor would impatiently say to them
You can handle it yourself, so these eunuchs really happily handle it yourself.
Over time, the emperor's power was stolen.
Of course, the same principle applies when eunuchs are replaced by civil servants. Although civil servants talk about benevolence, justice and morality, if they really want to cause evil, they may not have more integrity than eunuchs.
So, can Chu Ge mix?
Can I not read these memorials because I am tired?
cannot.
Because he guessed that the key to cracking the copy this time was probably hidden in this mountain of memorials.
Reviewing memorials for many years is a prerequisite for being a good emperor.
Because communications in ancient times were very underdeveloped, it was impossible for the emperor to know the actual situation of each official at all times while he was deep in the palace, let alone the actual situation in the country's border areas, townships, counties, or lower-level areas.
The only way to obtain information is through the memorials of these ministers.
Therefore, Chu Ge could only endure his temper and continue reviewing these memorials.
Fortunately, "Dark Sand" is just a game, not real history.
Chu Ge didn't really need to review so many memorials every day for decades. When the game time advanced to the third day, he had already seen the first crucial memorial.
The reason why he knew that this memorial was important was, on the one hand, because when he saw the memorial, he naturally thought of a major case in history, and on the other hand, because the system prompted him.
This memorial is a letter from a royal censor. The main content is that the results of the examination in February this year have been released, but no scholars from the north of the Dasheng Dynasty were on the list. The more than 50 scholars admitted were all from the south.
.
This is the first time in the history of the nearly 30 years since the founding of the Dasheng Dynasty.
As soon as the list came out, the government and the public were shocked, and rumors spread. The northern scholars went to the Ministry of Rites to beat drums and complain, asking the emperor to investigate thoroughly. That's how the censor's letter came to be.
Of course, he was not the only one who submitted the letter. Many other ministers also submitted memorials. Many ministers hoped that the emperor would investigate the matter thoroughly. However, some ministers also expressed their intention in the memorials to stand on the side of the examiner.
that side.
At the same time that Chu Ge saw this memorial, a few short system prompts appeared in his field of vision.
[The key case in this trial fantasy has been officially activated!]
[Make a rough decision in your mind, and the system will automatically form a plan and hand it over to various departments for processing.]
[The outcome of the case will directly affect the future national trend of Dasheng Dynasty.]
[In an uncertain period of time in the future, a varying number of key cases will appear. However, subsequent key cases will no longer trigger any system prompts.]
[The system will calculate the future status of the Dasheng Dynasty in real time based on the results of the player's handling of the case.]
[After the player plays the role, if the age of the Great Sheng Dynasty is more than 230 years, the level will be cleared, and if the age is less than 230 years, it will be a failure.
[After each case is processed, you will have an opportunity to review the expected country. If you are not satisfied, you can start over immediately.]
[Special note: In these cases, there may be situations that are not completely consistent with history, please make your own judgment.]
Seeing these system prompts, Chu Ge finally knew the conditions for passing the status of "Emperor" in this trial fantasy world. In fact, in a nutshell, it is: govern the country!
Of course, it is a simplified version of governing the country in the game.
In real history, after the emperor decided how to deal with the matter, he would also consider which department and official to hand it over to. When some officials made mistakes, they would also consider the sentencing themselves.
Specifically, genocide? Beheading? Or exile?
This must be decided by the emperor himself.
But after all, Chu Ge is just a player and cannot have the governance level of the founding emperor, so the game has made some simplifications in this aspect.
He only needs to think about the general processing method in his mind, and the system will automatically add the details and execute it for him.
The first case Chu Ge encountered was the very famous North and South Bang case in history.
The system prompt stated that Chu Ge would encounter some other cases in the future, but these cases would no longer be prompted. In other words, he would need to find them by himself among the mountains of memorials.
How many cases are there specifically? I don’t know. How much time is left in the future? I don’t know either.
The only thing that is known is that the results of handling these cases will affect Guo Zuo of the Dasheng Dynasty.
The so-called Guozuo refers to the length of time a dynasty lasts.
If the dynasty lasts for more than two hundred and thirty years, he will be considered successful.
