When Xu Qingluo's father was demoted from the capital, it was Sun Guangdou who did it.
Minister of the Ministry of Officials, that is not an ordinary small official, but a first-rank official, the top row of court officials, with a high position and weight.
If you want to bring down such a high-ranking official, you need the right time, place and people.
"Qingluo, it's not that easy." Chu Ling shook his head and said, "He was able to ascend to such a high position because he has gone through untold hardships and fought hard."
In the imperial court, there are upright officials, but it is unrealistic if they are all upright officials.
Human beings are complex, with advantages and disadvantages, and greed is human nature, which is almost difficult to eradicate.
No one is perfect, if we blindly stare at corruption, I am afraid there will not be a few officials left.
When the water is clear, there will be no fish. The emperor is against corruption, but as long as it is not too much, he will turn a blind eye.
Xu Qingluo snorted: "Before he became a minister, he was restrained. After he became a minister, he felt that no one could cure him, and his greed became more and more serious. It's not just a little bit of greed."
Chu Ling frowned.
Xu Qingluo said: "The censors of the imperial court, in my opinion, are bullying the weak and afraid of the strong, and dare not investigate these top officials at all."
Chu Ling nodded: "The officials who have climbed up layer by layer have a solid foundation, like an old tree with intertwined roots, and its tentacles are everywhere. It is very difficult to get them, so these censors don't bother to bother. Vain."
More importantly, the father is very dependent on these first-rank officials and will not replace them easily.
Xu Qingluo said: "What about Qianlongwei?"
"It should be impossible to hide it from Qianlongwei," she shook her head lightly and said, "The emperor knows how much money he is greedy, but still pretends not to know?"
I often think about this question, whether the emperor knows or not.
If you know, why can you still tolerate it so much? You must know that this level of greed has seriously affected the atmosphere of the officialdom, as well as the entire administration of officials.
Once the government is bad, and the atmosphere in the officialdom is bad, it will shake the hearts of the people in Daqian, and thus shake the country and society of Daqian.
"A lot of greed?" Chu Ling asked curiously.
Xu Qingluo said: "Uncle Lin once inquired about his house for a while, and then gave up. In just a few days, I saw that he was greedy for at least 100,000 taels. Every official who came to Beijing to face the Holy Spirit had to go to his house Gifts cost thousands of taels."
Chu Ling said: "This can be regarded as an official rule."
As the highest official of the Ministry of Officials, Minister of the Ministry of Officials is in charge of the assessment and promotion of all officials, so of course he should be filial.
The importance of gift-giving is second, and the most important thing is an attitude.
Xu Qingluo shook her head: "Of course I know this rule, but it's a bit too much to spend thousands of taels of silver, and the smaller the official, the more they give, ranging from a thousand taels to tens of thousands of taels. Where does their money come from? What? One year's salary is not enough to give a gift once."
Chu Ling frowned: "I can only search for people's wealth, people's fat and people's anointment."
She then said, "Such a heavy gift?"
"This old guy is really cunning," Xu Qingluo snorted, "It is stated that only calligraphy and painting are accepted, and no antique calligraphy and painting are accepted, only famous artists in the world are accepted."
Chu Ling nodded: "The paintings and calligraphy of famous artists in the world are not worth much, and they are considered clean."
Xu Qingluo snorted: "The calligraphy and paintings that can be given away all have bank notes, and they are all silver notes starting from one thousand taels!"
Chu Ling frowned.
Xu Qingluo shook her head and said: "What's even more annoying is that he won't help after receiving the money, and won't be promoted because of it."
Zhou Yang said: "Is this considered fair?"
Xu Qingluo snorted and said: "But those who don't give money will be unlucky, just like my father."
Zhou Yang said immediately: "That's treacherous!"
Giving money is equivalent to an amulet. Without the amulet, you will be demoted at every turn, which is too dark.
He turned to look at Chu Ling.
Chu Ling frowned.
Xu Qingluo said: "Does the emperor know this?"
Chu Ling fell silent.
Xu Qingluo snorted and said, "It's impossible not to know anything."
If the emperor didn't hear anything, then the emperor would be too dazed, but if he heard it and pretended not to know, he would be dazed too.
Therefore, after all, it is not Mingjun's doing to tolerate this Sun Guangdou so far.
Chu Ling thought for a while: "I'll go back and ask my father, maybe my father has a deep meaning."
She also felt that it was impossible for Chu Xiong to not know anything.
Xu Qingluo said: "He must know something.??, still condoning this, do you want to fatten up before killing? "
Chu Ling frowned and said, "Father would not do this for a senior official like Minister of the Ministry of Officials."
The Minister of the Ministry of Officials can be said to be the confidant of the father, and he would not use this method, otherwise it would be too chilling.
Father Huang is still very particular about the relationship between the monarch and his ministers.
Xu Qingluo said: "If you want me to tell you, don't tell your father, let the wind go directly to Yu Shi's side, and see if they dare to move."
Chu Ling said: "If Father doesn't know, he will be very embarrassed."
"If he knows, he will definitely stop Yu Shi." Xu Qingluo said.
Chu Ling shook his head: "Father may not be able to stop it."
Regarding Yushi, the father would hardly take action to suppress him, let alone kill someone because of his words, at most he would demote him from Shenjing.
There are many censors who don't hesitate to lose their lives in order to become famous and enhance their reputation.
Once the reputation is improved, you will not worry about having no official position in the future, especially the censor.
Xu Qingluo said: "Then these censors are really incompetent, or in other words, they are also acting according to the wind!"
She has some understanding of officials, but she doesn't dare to say she understands them very well, because her father's behavior is incompatible with the officialdom and cannot be used as a reference.
At the beginning, Lin Feiyang was asked to help with the investigation, and when he found out that it was Sun Guangdou who was playing tricks, he checked Sun Guangdou by the way, but did not continue the investigation.
Official affairs cannot be resolved by martial arts means. Although it is a pleasure to abolish him directly, it is a big taboo, and the entire Daxue Mountain may be affected by then.
Matters in the officialdom still have to be resolved in the officialdom.
Zhou Yu said softly: "It's better to tell the emperor first."
She glanced at Chu Ling.
If you don't tell the emperor in advance, it will be difficult for Chu Ling to be caught in the middle.
The emperor knew afterwards that he would be sad and feel betrayed.
Zhou Yangdao: "But the emperor knew it in advance, and he will definitely greet the censors."
Zhou Yudao: "It may not be useful for the emperor to say hello."
"Can't it?" Zhou Yang didn't believe it: "The censors' fame is nothing more than to get promoted. If the emperor is angered, how can they be promoted?"
Zhou Yu shook his head lightly: "It cannot be deduced by common sense."
Now the promotion of officials may not be entirely decided by the emperor, and a set of operating rules has been formed. As an emperor, he also needs to abide by some rules, and he cannot be completely arbitrary.
? Qiankun arbitrarily decides once, or twice, but everything is like this, then
So those censors, as long as they are tough enough, they will not worry about being promoted, and their demoting is only temporary, but it is a kind of great qualifications.
