Daming reckless man

Chapter 535 Confirmed
Jiajing was talking there, and Yan Song and the others hurriedly said that they dare not. Jiajing said these words very seriously. It would be fatal to check the old accounts before. It is estimated that officials in the court, including those who died, probably need [-]% of them. If something happens, in this case, there will be no officials in the court in the future.

"Don't you dare? Don't they dare? And you say you don't dare? I'm surprised that I didn't spend so much money last year, there were so many disasters last year, and the people rebelled.
This year, there are no rebellions by the people in various places, and there are no major natural disasters. The Tatars are on the border, and they dare not come, and the Oalas also dare not come. So it costs so much, and you are still staring at the money for salt and customs duties?Ok?When did I tighten the money of the Ministry of Accounts?When did the Ministry of Households need money, but I didn't approve it, and still stared at the money?They are so brave! " Jiajing sat there and said angrily,

Yan Song and the others were all standing there with their heads bowed.

"Let's talk about this matter? What should we do? Check all the accounts, or check all the previous accounts. In addition, how should those officials who were arrested be dealt with? Also, how to warn future generations?" Jiajing stared They continued talking.

"Your Majesty, these corrupt officials have also been arrested now, and they should be punished. I just said that if we continue to investigate the previous accounts, I am afraid that many officials will be in trouble, and the court will be unstable at that time.

What I mean is, give a warning, and then look at the aftereffects of those officials. Among the previous six departments, there were many vacancies for officials, and some were just filled in this year. If we continue to investigate now, I am afraid that there will be another shortage of officials. There is also a lack of officials in the government. If we continue to transfer from the local government, I am afraid it will be very difficult! "Yan Song stood there and said to Jiajing.

"Well, what do you mean, let's forget about the previous accounts, and those corrupt officials will be in their pockets?" Jiajing stared at Yan Song and asked.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Yan Ge means that those corrupt officials have been corrupt before, and now they are probably corrupt. This year, so many problems have been found out, and those officials have been arrested. It can be seen that they were also corrupt before. In this way, if we continue to trace the previous accounts, I am afraid that there are still those people, of course there will be more people, but now we do not have so many talents available in the court!" Xu Jie immediately said to Jiajing!

"Yes, Your Majesty, that's what I mean. Those people who were found out this time must have more than this little money in their homes. After all, I heard that they need to arrest a lot!" Yan Song immediately said to Jiajing. I don't know how many people will be arrested, but I heard that people are being arrested outside now.

"There are more than 200 people to be arrested!" Jiajing looked at Yan Song and said.

"Yes, Your Majesty, if so many people have been arrested, and there is a gap of three or five million taels in the account, but if the house is raided, so many people, there must be more than that, so, Your Majesty, now you have to think about it. Will there be so many officials in the court, and there are so many officials missing among the six departments, but no one is working!" Yan Song said to Jiajing again,

But Zhou Yan and the others didn't dare to speak at all now, they didn't fully understand what Jiajing meant, so they didn't dare to continue.After Jiajing heard this, he sat there thinking about it, but he didn't think about it, he just wanted to listen to them continue and see what they thought.

"Your Majesty, now that this matter has been found out, it must be dealt with severely. Our cabinet united with six ministries and sent out a report to warn my Ming officials to focus on doing things for the people. If they dare to continue to corrupt, We will punish you severely!" Yan Song continued to look at Jiajing and said, but Jiajing still didn't speak.

"Your Majesty, this, the money for salt and the money for customs duties. What I mean by this minister is that His Majesty will continue to monitor it. There are indeed many problems with the Ministry of Household Affairs. After all, there are so many people who are very tempted when they see so much money!" Xu Xu Jie then looked at Jiajing and said.

Yan Song also reacted at this moment, and said to Jiajing: "Yes, Your Majesty, this money still needs to be supervised!"

Zhou Yan came to his senses when he heard this, and said to Jiajing, "Your Majesty, I also agree!"

At this time, several other people also nodded quickly.

"Well, the money for tariffs and salt. As I said, I need to use this money to buy land. The people handed in the money, and I use the land to return it to the people. In this way, the people have land and can support their families. Son, you won't think about rebellion,
Now, how much of my Ming's land is in the hands of the common people?How many of them are in the hands of those big landlords, officials, nobles, and royals. I plan to take out part of the royal lands in various places and give them to the people to plant!
I hope that the people of my Ming Dynasty will each have one mu of land as the bottom line. Now, it is only less than 3000 million mu, and there is still a gap of 7000 million mu, and the royal side is estimated to be able to come up with 600 million mu of land. , there is still a big gap, and the tax and salt money is only less than 400 million mu of land a year. It is estimated that it will take 20 years to complete these things. I am also prepared to use 20 years to do this well. thing! "Jiajing sat there and said, he arranged the money in the same way.

"Your Majesty is holy!" They said immediately, clasping their hands together.
I thought to myself, it is estimated that it will take so many years. More than 200 officials have been raided this time. Their families have a lot of land, which is estimated to exceed hundreds of thousands or even millions of acres. Not a lot!

"Since you agree, it needs to be announced. In the future, the money from these two items will be used to buy land, except for the household department, okay?" Jiajing stared at them and asked, hoping to confirm this matter To avoid being worried about by those ministers in the future, he doesn't want this to happen.

"Yes!" The ministers nodded again.

"Then you continue to send out official documents!" Jiajing said, and they nodded again.

"As long as those officials are there, how do we deal with them?" Jiajing looked at them and asked.

"Your Majesty, just deal with it according to my Ming laws!" Zhou Yan said immediately, he is the imperial censor and knows the laws of Daming.

"What do you mean?" Jiajing immediately looked at the other ministers,

They also nodded immediately, agreeing to deal with it like this. If they don't agree, it won't work. Now Jiajing is about to settle the old score. By then, I don't know how many people will be unlucky, so now they nodded.

"Okay, if that's the case, then that's fine. You need to make it clear to the ministers about the follow-up matters. They are corrupt, and they should be a warning, instead of arresting batches after batches. The Metropolitan Procuratorate It also needs to be effective, and this year, several officials have been cleaned up at the local level, huh?" Jiajing stared at Zhou Yan and continued to ask.

"This, it seems that 11 people have been investigated and dealt with!" Zhou Yan didn't know what Jiajing meant, but Yan Song's heart skipped a beat. Did Jiajing start to investigate the local officials?If this is the case, then the life of those officials next year will be difficult?
"At the local level, with so many officials, do you believe that only 11 have problems? If the Ministry of Household Affairs does not investigate, nothing will happen. After investigation, there is such a big problem. Those local officials are so good?
How many of those officials from the household department were promoted from the local government? Last year, Shuntian Prefecture had nine county magistrates, but only one of them had no problem. "Jiajing stared at Zhou Yan and said very sternly.

"Yes, I will definitely supervise them when I go back, please rest assured, Your Majesty!" Zhou Yan said immediately, cupping his hands.

"Well, next year, I plan to spot-check some state capitals. Check it out first. They directly face the people. How the people view me, Daming, will have a direct impact on the officials of those state capitals!" Jiajing stared at Zhou Yan and the others. said,

After hearing this, they all nodded. There was no other way. Jiajing wanted to investigate the case. Who would dare to object? They just said that it would be up to him to investigate the case. If it was still Zhang Hao who did the investigation, it would be troublesome. There is still room for manipulation, so now they just need to figure this out.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the Metropolitan Procuratorate can send people to investigate next year!" Yan Song immediately took over the topic and said, the purpose is to test.

"We'll talk about this matter next year. I haven't figured out which places to check!" Jiajing said, and they nodded immediately.

On Zhang Hao's side, a large number of officials were arrested to Jinyiwei's side, as well as their family members. Zhang Hao was sitting at the door of the cell and watching. Those officials and their family members did not dare to speak when they saw Zhang Hao. I dare not even say that I hate Zhang Hao,

This is Jinyiwei, Zhang Hao's territory, and they were arrested because of the accounts. If Zhang Hao hadn't found out about their problems, would he have arrested them?
"My lord, all the officials in the capital have been arrested, and some of them have been transferred outside. They are still being arrested. It may take time. The mansions of those people are already being searched. It is estimated that there will be an account coming soon!" Liu Yunhai said to Zhang Hao.

"Interrogate them overnight, pull out all their files, and go through them one by one according to the records in it, so that they won't say that we arrested them indiscriminately!" Zhang Hao said while sitting there.

"Yes, my lord, but it's completely unnecessary. I don't know what they did by themselves? They don't dare to be presumptuous in front of you, my lord!" Liu Yunhai said to Zhang Hao with a smile.

"Well, we need to go through it. Otherwise, those of our brothers who went to investigate are not in vain? Now that they have been investigated, they need to make it clear, one by one, and then all their crimes will also need to be posted. Come out and let the people in the capital see that the court has been suppressing those corrupt officials, but they are hiding too deeply, and they will not be found out for a while." Zhang Hao said calmly while sitting there.
