Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 745 Incorruptible government storm, Nanyang expansion!
Wang Chengli returned home in a daze, thinking that Jin Yiwei might be investigating him, he didn't think about food and tea, and he was in a state of desperation.

But at this time Wang Yungong came to him again.

"Father, the County Patrol Bureau only gave me three days, and said that if I haven't apologized to Bai Yuekui and made compensation as required within three days, they will take me to prison for three days."

Wang Chengli recovered after hearing the words.

Thinking that the current disasters were all caused by this son, he couldn't help being angry, took off his shoes and hit Wang Yungong.

"I'll beat you to death, you cheating bastard! I didn't do well in school last time, so I insisted on blocking other female students..."

Wang Chengli did not strike lightly, it really hurt.

Wang Yungong was so frightened that he ran all over the yard.

She ran and cried, "Mom, help me, daddy is going to kill me..."

Upon hearing the sound, Mrs. Li rushed over, transformed into a vixen in an instant, and began to flirt with Wang Chengli.

"You and I are just such a son, if you want to kill him, you should kill me first!"

"Do you think I dare not hit you? You are used to him causing today's disaster!"

"I'm used to it, aren't you used to it?"

For a while, the Wang family was in a commotion, not only the servants and maidservants employed in the family were discussing secretly, but even the neighbors ran out to watch the excitement.

Fortunately, this scene did not last long.

Because the envoy came to the door.

"Wang Chengli, someone reported that you bent the law for personal gain, embezzled and accepted bribes, please come with us."

Wang Chengli left with the envoy of the Political Supervision Bureau, and the Wang family finally calmed down.

But soon came Li's crying...
Wang Chengli, Li Yucheng, Zhang Yuan and others were investigated by the Political Supervision Bureau and charged with the crimes. After they were punished, the Metropolitan Procuratorate launched an unprecedented large-scale operation under Zhu Yu's order.

In the following month or two, a clean government storm appeared in the 24 provinces of Ming Dynasty.

For a while, the officialdom was shaken, and many officials who were corrupt and perverted the law were pulled out.

Those charged with serious crimes were directly sentenced to beheading; those charged with minor crimes were also dismissed from office, or demoted and fined money.

However, most of the corrupt officials were exiled to northern Xinjiang such as Yunzhong, Ningsui, and Qinghai in Gansu as hard labor.

Why not exile in southern Xinjiang?

Nowadays, there has been an immigration boom in Nanhai Province. Many people spontaneously emigrate through non-governmental organizations without waiting for the government to organize them. There is no need for the imperial court to exile criminals.

After experiencing this storm of clean government, the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty was immediately cleaned up, and the officials in the 24 provinces almost became more honest and honest than Zhaowu in the previous three years.

The common people applauded this matter, wishing that there would be a clean government storm in Ming Dynasty every year.

But as a ruler, Zhu Yuxi must pay attention to all aspects in order to control the huge ship of the Ming Empire, and it is impossible to focus on optimizing only one aspect.

Such as the clean government storm, the impact is not all positive.

That night, Zhu Yuxi sat on the bed and talked to Hao Guangming about the negative impact of the clean government storm.

"According to the feedback from the cabinet and the yamen below, although this storm of clean government has uncovered many corrupt officials, it has made officials in all provinces and yamen more law-abiding.

However, there are also many officials who have become timid in doing things after that, which slows down the efficiency of many local political affairs.

Fortunately, there is an optimized version of the examination method to urge, otherwise some yamen may be shut down. "

Hao Guangming actually doesn't know much about the officialdom, so he can only make some suggestions based on his knowledge.

He said: "On our side, in fact, laziness and negligence in governance are punishable. Of course, it is not so easy to distinguish between lazy and negligent in governance.

Therefore, I think that while strictly implementing the optimized version of the examination method, Ming Dynasty should try its best to promote promising officials, and strive to make every promising official be promoted and get suitable appointments.

In this way, the entire officialdom will be driven and a good atmosphere will be formed, and the corruption of officials will be less and slower.

In addition, it is natural to further increase the salaries of officials, so that the cost of bribing them from the outside world will become higher, and the occurrence of corruption will also be reduced. "

Auntie Zhu nodded slightly.

After she came to the throne, when she reformed the structure of various departments of the imperial court, she increased the salaries of Ming officials.

Today, the average salary level of officials in the Zhaowu Dynasty is five times that of the Chongzhen Dynasty.For a few of them, the salary is more than ten times that of before!
In addition, the number of officials in the Zhaowu Dynasty increased a lot, and now the official salary is actually the second largest expenditure of Ming Dynasty after military expenditure.

Thanks to the current Ming Dynasty, in addition to land taxes, it can also collect hundreds of millions of commercial taxes every year. At the same time, various government-run factories, companies and other enterprises can also make profits of hundreds of millions every year.

Otherwise, it may not be able to support the huge expenditure of the Ming court today.

After a while of silence, Auntie Zhu sighed again: "I don't know if this storm of clean government will make Daming's officialdom clear for a few years."

When Hao Guangming heard this, his heart moved, and he said: "There is a method on the Internet to encourage imperial envoys to carry out clean government work. I don't know if it is feasible. Let me tell you for reference?"

"Speak quickly, Mr. Xiang."

"It's very simple. It is to reward a small portion of the corrupted officials' money to the envoy who finds out the corrupt officials. If anyone provides evidence or makes a real-name accusation, they can also get a small portion of the stolen money."

Auntie Zhu was overjoyed when she heard this, but then she couldn't help frowning and said, "Will this allow the inspectors to make unjust cases for money?
Also, if someone is insane and intentionally embezzles in order to obtain the stolen money from the government, so that the accuser can benefit, what should he do? "

Hao Guangming said: "The two situations you mentioned are indeed possible, but the probability should be very small, right? I don't think you can give up because of choking. If you really think the idea I just said is good, you can come up with a supplementary method."

After hearing this, Auntie Zhu began to think.

Seeing her slightly frowning brows, Hao Guangming felt distressed.

Just at this time, fireworks were set off outside, almost continuously, reflecting the colorful night sky.

Hao Guangming got out of bed and said, "The new year is here, wife, shall we welcome the new year together?"

After hearing this, Auntie Zhu diverted her attention, and immediately responded, and went downstairs with Hao Guangming, preparing to welcome the New Year according to the customs here.

In the hall on the first floor, the fireworks stopped for a while, and the two of them heard the voice from Aimee Zhu's bedroom.

"Oh, why are you so stupid, didn't the people on the road see it? And the jungler, what are you doing? Are you so close to support?"

As soon as they heard Concubine Zhu speak in a panic, the two of them knew that Concubine Zhu was beating the king.

Normally, Concubine Zhu would not be playing games so late, but on New Year's Eve, Concubine Zhu allowed her to indulge for one night.

After all, during the Chinese New Year here, Auntie Zhu can't go out to play like other children.As for going to Daming, she couldn't let go because of the hidden guards and guards following her.

Therefore, it is a kind of compensation for Concubine Zhu to allow Concubine Zhu to stay up late and play games.

Besides, Aimee Zhu is playing games at home, so the couple are also relieved.

···
In the seventh year of Zhaowu, the eighth day of the first lunar month.

As soon as the yamen of the Ming court opened, good news came from Luzon.

After the joint training operation of the Nanyang Navy and some garrison forces in the South China Sea, Guangdong, and Fujian provinces in the second half of last year, Spain's last stronghold in the Visayas was captured yesterday.

So far, the Spanish colonists have lost the Visayas region of the Greater Luzon Islands, leaving only the Mindanao region and the Sulu Islands.

Daming expanded tens of thousands of square kilometers in southern Xinjiang!
How rich Nanyang is. Last year, the common people have learned a lot through letters from Nanyang immigrants, related news reports, and even immigrants who came back to recruit people in person.

Therefore, when the Daming News reported the news, the officials, gentry, soldiers and civilians all rejoiced after hearing it.

Many people will take out the firecrackers and fireworks that have not been set off during the New Year, and even beat gongs and drums, dance lions and play boats to celebrate.

In the Hall of Martial Arts.

Aimee Zhu was looking at the map of the Greater Luzon Islands, thinking about whether to entrust another vassal king in the Visayas...

　Second more.

　　Good night~
