Later Marx once said: "If there is 10% profit, capital will be used everywhere; if there is 20% profit, capital will be active;
With 50% profit, capital will take desperate risks;
For 100% profit, capital dares to trample all human laws; for more than 300% profit, capital dares to commit any crime, and even risk hanging. "
Capital is like this, and so are officials!
"You are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. I will punish corrupt officials to the maximum extent. Anyone who dares to stop him will be punished," Zhu Youjian muttered in his heart.
From ancient times to the present, it is often not the enemy but the person in the temple who kills the country's last life-saving straw.
If you want the dynasty to continue to be strong, you must insist on continuous self-cleaning, otherwise its prosperity will inevitably decline.
But the ironic reality is that it is better to be a slave to the subjugation of the country than to get rid of the pustules!
They would rather protect the interests of vested interests until the country is destroyed than let the people relax.
The emperor was either weak-minded or deceived into not being able to tell the difference between east, west, north and south.
The people below are full of benevolence and morality, but they are doing beastly things in their hands.
Selling one's country and killing loyal ministers are all basic skills.
He has only been on the throne for only 6 years, and he has only relaxed a little bit towards the officials. These dog officials dare to try to murder him, and slander the lives of the people. If he waits for a while, will they dare to break the embankment and destroy the city?
Zhu Youjian felt a little scared in his heart. He had gone out to play secretly in the past two years. If he hadn't kept it a secret, and he went out quickly and came back quickly, he would have been out of his mind.
"From today on, a new rule will be added to the Ming Dynasty law. All corrupt officials, no matter how much they have embezzled, regardless of their status, will be cut into pieces, their property will be confiscated, the three clans will be slaves for 20 years, and the nine clans will not be allowed to serve as officials for 30 years.
Whoever dares to cover up will be guilty of the same crime!
Officials who bully the people and confuse right and wrong. Same crime! "
"Your Majesty, no, the Qiang Qin Dynasty perished due to tyranny. Your Majesty's treatment of officials will chill the hearts of scholars all over the world. If this continues, the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos before March!"
As soon as Zhu Youjian finished speaking, Huang Jin, the Minister of Rites, came out to stop him.
The other officials also hurriedly echoed.
Being an official for thousands of miles is just for money. Although everyone shouts that it is for the country and the people when they are an official, this is just lip service. Otherwise, there would not be so many corrupt officials and bad officials, right?
You are an emperor and hold great power. You have no problem killing corrupt officials. Just be patient.
But if you want to legislate and ask future generations to follow it, isn't this digging the grave of corrupt officials?
If every corrupt official in the world is killed, how can everyone still dare to commit corruption?
The country does not reincarnate every 300 years, so wouldn’t it be self-defeating to blame the emperor for the country’s demise?
By then the Ming Dynasty is over, and the new dynasty will probably implement the policy that corrupt officials must die. What will everyone do with this?
"So you are a corrupt official and a bad official." Zhu Youjian said coldly, his tone full of murderous intent.
"Your Majesty is aware that I have always abided by laws and regulations. All my property in total is only 200 silver coins. How could he be a corrupt official?" Huang Jin explained hurriedly.
The current master is a murderous demon king!
In this case, if I dare to admit it, it would be light to be cut into pieces.
"Are you corrupt officials and bad officials?" Zhu Youjian continued to ask.
"With His Majesty's wise leadership, how can we be corrupt officials and dog officials?",
"That's right, we are all people who have read the books of sages, how can we be corrupt officials and dog officials?"
.....
Baiguan hurriedly defended.
"Your Majesty, you led the pioneers of the Ming Dynasty to establish slaves, leveled the grassland, and later recovered Annan. The master of the Ming Dynasty Zhongxing will definitely be able to be the emperor of the ages alongside the Qin Emperor and the Han Dynasty. But if you add this to the Ming Dynasty law now, it will damage your benevolence and justice. His reputation!"
"Plop!" I saw a gray-haired minister kneeling on the ground and crying.
"Bullshit, literati are just talkative. What they say is for Lao Tzu's benevolence and righteousness, not for his own interests." Zhu Youjian cursed in his heart.
The main interest groups in the Ming Dynasty are divided into civil servant groups, noble groups, and the royal family.
These are three forces, each with its own interests.
Since ancient times, the civil servant group has wanted to limit the power of the royal family and the noble group.
Neither the princes nor the relatives can truly hold power.
The reason for limiting the power of the princes was to prevent the separatism of feudal towns.
The reason for limiting the power of relatives is to prevent them from interfering in politics.
Although these have serious lessons in history.
But the biggest reason here is that they are worried that the royal family has too much power. As civil servants, they can only
He can honestly become a tool of the royal family and cannot make a difference.
Is it a good thing that scholars hold most of the power of the dynasty?
Take the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, which had the highest status of scholars in history. These two dynasties were good enough for scholars. What did they get in exchange?
The Song Dynasty gained a humiliation of Jingkang and hatred of Yashan. It started the humiliation of the Han people in Yuandai for nearly a hundred years.
As for the Ming Dynasty, it was even worse. After the Ming Dynasty fell, the Han people started a history of humiliation for hundreds of years.
Even after the founding of New China, there were still countless dogs barking.
"As long as the people of the world have enough food and clothing, the barbarians around us will not dare to bully our Ming Dynasty.
When encountering a disaster, all Ming officials do not think about how to make money, but try their best to help the victims tide over the difficulties.
It would not be a pity to abandon the name of benevolence and righteousness! "Zhu Youjian said without blushing or breathing.
"I put the people and the country in front of myself, which shows how noble and great I am. Now it depends on how you respond." Zhu Youjian muttered slightly proudly.
"If you are shameless, you are invincible." Facing such a large group of Ming Dynasty elites, Zhu Youjian may not be able to beat you in terms of brains, but in order to survive and wait for death, I am shameless this time.
Zhu Youjian's words were equivalent to saying harsh words.
Anyone who dares to stop me will be labeled as someone who is unwilling to feed and clothe the people, hopes that the barbarians will humiliate the Ming Dynasty, and even hopes to put his hand into the disaster relief fund.
Regarding Zhu Youjian's virtue, after being labeled as such, national notification is indispensable. By then, it will really be infamy for thousands of years.
And although those civil servants are not necessarily very loyal and patriotic. But they value face more than their heads!
As soon as Zhu Youjian said these words, they all shut up quietly, and at the same time they hated Jin Yiwei in their hearts.
In their hearts, they never felt that there was anything wrong with framing Jin Yiwei for the common people's lives.
In their view, it was a mistake for the emperor to centralize power and develop Jinyiwei, which affected their happy collection of money.
As for the life and death of the country and its people, what does it have to do with them?
Only the royal family and some untouchables died when the country was overthrown. Doesn’t the new dynasty need officials to govern?
