    "I have my own concerns about this." Since he is determined to reform, Li Min will never be soft-hearted. Guan Sixing is destined to no longer stay in the position of Yizhou governor, so Li Min does not plan to pay attention to it for the time being, otherwise he, the majesty of the emperor,  Where?  Seeing the displeasure on Li Min's face, Shangguan Yi slowly withdrew. At this moment, he finally understood what it means to accompany a king like a tiger.  Shangguan Yi was demoted, and the Yizhou faction was completely replaced by Li Min. The Chang'an faction headed by Changsun Wuji was not only not happy but full of worries. Li Min's own team can be rectified, let alone his ministers?  The ensuing anti-corruption operations throughout the Tang Dynasty once again proved their judgment. As long as officials in various states and counties were reported by the people, Wuhou would immediately come to investigate and detain officials as soon as there were problems. At this time, the Tang Dynasty was developing too fast.  The shortcomings were finally exposed. The quality of officials could not keep up. The influx of a large amount of wealth and the erosion of capital businessmen led to serious official corruption. Moreover, collusion between officials was common.  Facing the figures reported by the Supervisory Yuan, Li was so angry that he didn't eat anything all day long, and among the names of these officials, Tong Nian was among them.  "Your Highness, this is the white fungus and lotus seed porridge I made for you. You haven't eaten all day. No matter how angry you are, you can't starve yourself." Liu Yanyu walked to Li Min holding a bowl of porridge.  Cui Yingying's relatives and Su Mo'er's subordinates all found out problems. Li Min was upset, so he simply went to Liu Yanyu. She was the only one who had no relatives serving in the court, so Li Min was looking for a clean place.  Looking at the lotus seed soup in Liu Yanyu's hand, Li Min shook his head, and then went to the house to see his third son Li Yun, who was his and Liu Yanyu's child. Seeing that the child was still sleeping soundly, Li Min felt gloomy.  Slightly better.  "Your Majesty, the Queen is coming to Changchun Garden." As soon as Li Min was about to leave, the eunuch walked in quickly to report to Li Min.  Li Min frowned, stood up and left, leaving Liu Yanyu with a worried look on his face. He had never seen Li Min so angry before, and he only hoped that the queen could persuade the emperor to come.  After leaving Changchun Garden where Liu Yanyu lived, Li Min met Cui Yingying head-on. Before Cui Yingying could speak, Li Min said: "If you want to plead for your Cui clan members, you don't have to ask. The Tang Dynasty has become like this. I  How can I be better without a killing stick? Cui Yingying said aggrievedly with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, is this concubine such an ignorant person?  They were caught. It was their own fault. I will never say a word for them. This time it was the concubine who asked me to invite His Highness to come over.  " Handing a handkerchief to Cui Yingying, Li Min said: "You just need to understand in your heart. Let's see how the Empress Dowager Changsun did it.  " Cui Yingying wiped her tears and said that Li Min's words were nothing more than telling her not to get involved in government affairs and to just manage the concubines of the Sixth Palace with peace of mind. Concubine Yang was looking for her, so Li Min had to go over, surrounded by palace maids and eunuchs, and went to Ci where Concubine Yang lived.  Ning Dian, when he arrived, Concubine Yang had prepared a table of wine and food, and saw Li Min coming over: "Your Majesty, we mother and son haven't had a meal together for a long time, so we will have a meal together today.  " "Mother, the child really can't eat.  "Li Min sat down on the chair, "My child thought that the Tang Dynasty was governed by him in an orderly manner, but he didn't expect that it would end up like this!  " Concubine Yang sat down opposite Li Min, held down a pair of bowls and chopsticks to Li Min, and said calmly: "This is not a big deal. Kill those who deserve to be killed, and exile those who deserve to be exiled. Does the Tang Dynasty still lack talents?  Think about when Chang'an was besieged by the Turks. At that time, we were facing a situation of national subjugation. In order to break the siege, your father dared to negotiate with Jie Li with only a dozen personal guards. However, the Empress Dowager Changsun even prepared poison.  As soon as the city of Chang'an was destroyed, she immediately took poison and committed suicide. Compared with this, catching some corrupt officials was a trivial matter.  " "Hey, it's just that I really can't bear to kill so many people.  "Li Min sighed. "The most important thing to be born as an emperor is to have a beloved girl here who cares about the small family and loses the world. If you don't kill them, they will poison your country in the future. Come on, don't think about it and eat.  " Concubine Yang took a piece of meat to Li Min. Concubine Yang's persuasion made Li Min make up his mind. After eating, he returned to his dormitory, and then called Li Ran to Chang'an. I'm afraid he would have to prepare a lot of management skills.  The robot rushed all the way to the Daming Palace. After learning about Li Min's decision, Li Ran said: "The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang, was the emperor who treated corrupt officials the most severely. He had zero tolerance for corrupt officials. During his time as emperor, he killed countless officials.  Tens of thousands of people, but even so, official corruption is getting worse and worse.  Li Min had naturally heard of this matter. He said: "That's different. Zhu Yuanzhang's salary to officials is too low. The officials themselves can't support themselves. Naturally, he wants to think of ways to exploit the people. But the salary I gave these officials  Is the salary low?  Even marrying three wives and four concubines is enough!" Li Ran Shen Jing.He smiled and said, "The monthly salary is naturally high enough, but His Highness's monthly salary is just one of the reasons why corrupt officials are rampant in the Tang Dynasty." "What else is there, let's talk about it." Li Min was on the list for review.  Keep scratching with a red pen.  "Wealth, power and sex, this monthly salary is just money. This wealth is only the most basic, but in exchange for power, sex and wealth, it is the most important. Your Highness's monthly salary is very high, but giving gifts among officials is not enough, and winning a smile from a beautiful woman is not enough.  "How can it be enough?" "Hmph, so I still have to give them money to give them gifts and prostitutes!" Li Min said as he put a red cross on a name.  "Actually, I just want to say that no amount of money is enough to give them. This can only reduce the occurrence of corruption, but it cannot eliminate it. In modern times, why are there so few corruption incidents in developed countries, but so many in countries like Z? Because of these  The current officials in the country all came from the poorest period. They have low education and low knowledge. They are afraid of poverty. Naturally, they have to take bribes and live a good life to make up for their previous shortcomings. The second reason is that they are officials.  Purpose, for stable treatment, for enjoyment, knowing that becoming an official can make money, the purpose is not pure, they will naturally accept bribes when they are in power, in fact, these two can be summed up as low quality, the third is culture, this is  The most important issue is that if His Highness does not solve it, it will never be solved," Li Ran said in a long voice.  "Tell me more specifically." Li Min put down his pen and became interested.  "Culture, the corruption culture passed down from China for thousands of years, everyone will have the subconscious mind that officials can be corrupt, because the culture they accept is full of this message, and the endless stream of corrupt officials in historical dynasties have set an example for them, letting them know what it means to be corrupt.  Corruption, what methods should be used to commit corruption? The corrupt officials who were reviled by thousands of people not only did not scare them, but made them rush towards this road like moths to a flame, because they knew that there was this road to take, and there were others.  The culture of courtesy and reciprocity among the people is a legacy of history. Friends give gifts when doing things, relatives give gifts when doing things, and officials and common people give gifts when doing things. Corruption breeds. In a word, if you want to put an end to it, you must start with the quality of the people.  " "Well, this is a fresh statement, but there is some truth. However, eliminating the culture of corruption is one way. Zero tolerance for corruption is also very important. Another thing is to avoid bureaucracy. From today on, all  The assets of Tang Dynasty officials must be reported to the government every month. Officials manage the people and the people supervise the officials. Otherwise, this matter will never be resolved." Li Min finally made the decision.  Li Ran was prepared, and Li Min made up his mind to behead all the officials who had committed huge amounts of corruption. Then they were exiled, imprisoned, and dismissed. For a time, a bloody storm broke out in the Tang Dynasty. The officials of the Tang Dynasty  I also saw Li Min's cold and ruthless side for the first time. At the same time, Li Ran continued to add new officials to the vacant positions. Li Min used this incident to basically complete the system of intelligent people-led and indigenous-assisted  Management system, under this system, Li Min believes that Datang will usher in new development opportunities.  In addition to targeting officials, Li Min asked the Ministry of Education to remove instances of corruption from the curriculum as much as possible to purify the perception of corruption from the ideological perspective, so that the culture of corruption will gradually disappear from history.  r1152 varwosoadconfig={cid:"23130",aid:"1036"};
