"Dad Ye, morning!"
.......
The next day!
Early in the morning, Ye Chen took Jiang Xiyue's little hand and came outside. He happened to meet Li Yu, who actually called him "Dad Ye", which surprised Ye Chen.
Confused and confused.
"Xiyue, what is this?"
Ye Chen asked.
"Didn't you ask Xiaoyu to change his surname? Since they are all named Ye, it doesn't matter if I call you daddy."
Jiang Xiyue said.
"good!"
"Dad Ye, this is a good title!"
"Come!"
"Xiao Yu, let Daddy Ye give me a hug."
Ye Chen was also quite moved when he heard this.
He held Ye Yu in his arms.
Bo!
He kissed the other person.
Later, while eating, he also held Xiaoyu on his lap and kissed her tightly.
This also made Jiang Xiyue quite pleased.
"Okay, Xiaoyu, come down quickly."
"Your father Ye is tired."
she said affectionately.
"No more."
Ye Chen shook his head and said.
He likes this child Xiaoyu.
"You, you can't spoil her like this, you will spoil her."
Jiang Xiyue said.
"It's okay. Even if my daughter, Ye Chen, is spoiled, it doesn't matter. If anyone dares to talk nonsense, I will spank their ass and ransack their home."
Ye Chen said.
These words were extremely arrogant.
"Come on, Xiaoyu, have some chicken wings!"
Ye Chen handed a fat and big chicken drumstick to Xiao Yu.
"Xiao Yu, as long as you like something, tell your dad and he will definitely satisfy you."
"Thank you dad!"
This breakfast is very warm.
After dinner, Ye Chen came to the imperial study room.
As soon as they entered the palace, Qin Yi and Ye Huan came to find Ye Chen.
"General, I will pay my respects to Your Majesty!"
"I guess you have heard about Li Ye's rebellion in Tanzhou, right?"
"The reason why I asked you to come is to let you two take command and accompany me to conquer Tanzhou in person."
"Li Ye's rebellion is a trivial matter."
"This hunting trip to various places is the top priority."
"Qin Yi, you are in charge of the Great Xia Dragon Guard, secretly mobilizing manpower to deal with the evil forces and corrupt officials along the way."
"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey!"
Ye Chen didn't hide anything from the two of them.
He deliberately promoted the two men as his cronies.
"promise!"
Qin Yi, the deputy capital commander, said.
"Ye Huan, I appoint you as the general to conquer Tanzhou with 300,000 troops."
Ye Chen also entrusted Ye Huan with important tasks.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
When Ye Huan heard this, he immediately fell to the ground and thanked him.
Conquer the general, and the official will be worshiped by the second rank.
He understood that Ye Chen's appointment was for his important use.
"Okay, we will set off for the expedition in two days. You guys go on errands immediately."
Ye Chen finished handling this matter and was about to go back to the palace to sleep. After that, he returned to the Central Heaven Realm. But just as he said his words, he found that many ministers came in from outside.
He covered his head and was speechless.
More than a dozen ministers came in, headed by Zhou Ru, the chief minister of the cabinet.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
"Everyone, I love you!"
Ye Chen said.
After that, Zhou Ru and others stood up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Okay, Zhou Aiqing, why do you come to see me?"
Ye Chen asked.
"Your Majesty, I am here to deal with the drought in the four northwest states. Please ask Your Majesty to open a granary and allocate funds for disaster relief."
Zhou Ru said.
"The four northwest states? Drought? Zhou Aiqing, have you found out the drought?"
"Have officials in the four states done their best to provide disaster relief?"
"If someone fails in their duties, remove them."
Ye Chen said.
"Your Majesty, the veteran has sent people to investigate. There are also officials in the four states who have neglected their duties. All the circumstances are included in the memorial. Your Majesty, please punish them severely."
"Especially Lu Zhuo, the governor of Ganzhou, has failed to provide disaster relief and should be dismissed and investigated."
Zhou Ru said.
The six cabinet ministries of the Great Xia Empire all have their own supervisory departments, and this department is called: [Inspection Yuan].
【Inspection and Inspection Service】
Responsible for supervising hundreds of officials.
Together with the Yushi Yamen and Daxia Longwei, they formed the three supervisory systems of Daxia.
"Everything must be based on facts. As long as the evidence is solid, we will convict and discuss punishment."
Ye Chen said.
While he was talking, he picked up these memorials and browsed them. After reading them, he realized how serious local corruption was. The harm caused by these people was simply more terrifying than natural disasters.
Snapped!
Ye Chen suddenly slapped the table.
"Extremely hateful!"
"The governor of one side does evil things and does not make decisions for the people. Instead, he bullies the people, engages in power-for-money transactions, power and sex transactions, and manipulates markets and projects. It is extremely hateful."
"It must be severely punished."
"The Ministry of Punishment, the Supervisory Board, and the Yushi Yamen will form a special task force and an inspection team to investigate thoroughly for me."
"We must investigate the matter clearly. Once the evidence is solid, even the connections and benefit networks of everyone behind them will be uncovered."
"In order to punish corruption, I will handle special matters."
"Corrupt officials and businessmen, regardless of their official position or big or small money, who are involved in the case should be jailed and beheaded."
"Kill without mercy!"
"The families of these corrupt officials and businessmen will also go to jail."
"Leave no one behind!"
After saying these words, all the adults present panicked.
Their expressions were different because they also committed corruption. If special affairs like Ye Chen were implemented, what would they do?
The money he had embezzled before was so that his family could live a good life.
Now, if after embezzlement, not only him, but also his family members would have to sit down together, then he would still be greedy for money.
It was too late for them to regret it.
"Your Majesty, this matter is inappropriate."
Hearing this, Zhou Ru cupped his hands and said.
He understood that the consequences of Ye Chen's anti-corruption policy would be serious, because looking at the Great Xia Empire, officials at the ninth level had committed corruption.
If these people were dealt with according to Ye Chen's method, they would cause turmoil.
"Zhou Aiqing, I understand what you are thinking? There is no need for you to worry unfounded here."
"I have just ascended the throne and I am not afraid of challenges. If anyone dares to raise an army and cause chaos, I will kill him."
"One kills another, and a pair kills a pair."
"I don't believe that we can't kill you in the clear day."
"I will never tolerate corruption."
Ye Chen interrupted Zhou Ru's words. He has zero tolerance for corruption because tyranny is stronger than a tiger, and a large part of the origin of tyranny is due to official corruption.
Once there is corruption, justice will be lost.
"Your Majesty, calm down!"
"Everything must be considered in the long term."
"Don't act on impulse."
Another minister persuaded me.
"Okay, I can give all officials a chance to live."
"From now on, I will set up a temporary [Confession House]. Only officials who have committed corruption will surrender themselves in the Confession House, explain all the circumstances, and hand over all their wealth. I will give them a lighter sentence."
"As for this confessional, it will also be run by the military."
"The corresponding data will be reported to Daxia Longwei, who will be responsible for screening. If it is true, they will be spared without mercy. Only the main culprit will be prosecuted, the family property will be confiscated, and the family members will be innocent. Otherwise, they will be killed without mercy and the whole family will be killed."
"If they dare to take away a piece of money from the common people, I will take the heads of their family members to repay them. There is no use in going to jail."
"If any of you, dear friends, have committed acts of corruption, you can surrender to me. If I pardon you, your past crimes will be forgotten."
"Start all over again."
"On the contrary, he will be killed without mercy!"
It's not that Ye Chen is trying to mobilize people, it's actually the actions recorded in those notes that just made him hate it.
Not to mention others, Lu Zhuo's governor alone had hundreds of lovers during his tenure, embezzled approximately 56 billion yuan, and killed 260 people directly and indirectly.
What is the use of keeping such dog officials?
"Your Majesty, this order cannot be issued. Once it is issued, it will cause great chaos."
Zhou Ru said.
He also hates corruption, but he also understands that these corrupt officials cannot be killed all.
Especially now, nearly nine levels of officials in the Daxia Empire are involved in corruption. If these people are to be severely punished, then who will serve the court? If these people act randomly, how will there be checks and balances.
He was also worried about these, otherwise, he would also want to support Ye Chen and kill all corrupt officials.
"Zhou Aiqing, the Great Xia Empire has a population of more than three billion, of which only 10% are officials. Even if I kill all these 10%, the foundation of the Great Xia Empire will not be shaken, because I understand that the Great Xia Empire The foundation is not these corrupt officials, but the law-abiding common people."
"These corrupt officials are not only unable to serve me and the court, but they are also a hidden danger to the court. Scraping the bones to cure the poison will cause temporary pain, but it will be beneficial in the long run."
Ye Chen raised his hand and said.
"As for your worry that there will be no one to serve the court."
"That's too much worry."
"According to my decree, if an official is killed, he will be randomly selected from college students and unemployed people to join the office. In each level of the yamen, no single member can serve as an official. There must be farmers, workers and intellectuals."
"The previous civil service system was rubbish, and the selection was all about the same things."
"How many of them can do things for the people?"
"There is not even a shred of belief in serving the people."
"From now on, the employment system of all levels of yamen must be reformed. The professional and application examinations are nonsense and have no practical use."
"We must proceed from reality, and we must not engage in frivolous things. We must reward those who have sacrificed for this country and this court."
“The transition of temporary workers to regular jobs must continue to be popularized.”
"At the same time, we will reduce the benefits of civil servants on a large scale and let talents invest in other industries, such as high-tech research and development, business, finance and other fields."
"The incident of doctoral students taking exams as sanitation workers must not happen. If this happens in the future, the academic qualifications of those applying for the university entrance exams will be canceled immediately and they will go home and farm."
Ye Chen patted the table and spoke out his decision.
"Your Majesty, I think these matters should be dealt with slowly and not in a hurry."
"Do you think it would be better to start with the yamen at all levels in the imperial capital, and then expand to prefectures, counties, and counties?"
Zhou Ru suggested.
"This is possible, but reform must be carried out. Today's development model is a serious waste of talents. We must make the best use of people's talents and make the best use of materials, and we must not waste talents."
“Those who have knowledge, let them engage in research and development.”
Ye Chen said.
"yes!"
Many of the ministers present were sweating profusely, and they were all terrified.
They understood that the world of the Daxia Empire was about to change.
A change from top to bottom will begin. In this change, no one knows how many people will die.
