The edict was very long and took half an hour to read.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Wang Jian and several ministers from the six departments stood up and responded to Li Shimin's edict immediately. make.
The scene in front of them stopped some officials who wanted to stand up and dissuade them.
What happened?
Was this group of prime ministers responsible for such a drain on the national treasury?
Officials who wanted to dissuade were no longer calm.
Everyone thinks there is no problem with the first two management measures for Tuyuhun and Tubo.
Especially the second article, regarding the bitter cold land of Tubo as the prince's fiefdom, these ministers wanted to clap their hands and cheer.
"I didn't expect that His Majesty would become so cruel that he would even trick his own son!"
Many ministers had this idea in their minds.
Treating Tubo as a fiefdom is even more serious than being exiled to Lingnan.
Although Lingnan is full of miasma and the climate is sultry, it is covered with green trees and rich in products.
And what about Tubo?
There is nothing to take away except the high mountains and cliffs and the severe cold.
Li Shimin saw the dull expressions of the other ministers, and his brows knitted together tightly.
"Do the other beloved ministers have different opinions on the above three measures?"
Hearing His Majesty's extremely serious voice, all the ministers trembled.
Without any hesitation, they stood up holding the Wat board.
"I have no objection."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
The old ministers shouted louder than the last.
Their voices echoed throughout the Tai Chi Hall.
Li Shimin nodded slightly, and then said to Fang Xuanling.
"Fang Aiqing, the third measure is related to the foundation of the Tang Dynasty and the future development plan. This is the most important task of your Shangshu Province this year."
"Put the encouragement tomorrow The reward system for people to give birth is announced to the people of the world. This edict will officially take effect from tomorrow!"
Over the years, the Tang Dynasty has successively annihilated the surrounding countries, but there is not enough population to conquer these countries! The country cannot hold on.
Time waits for no one. Datang now urgently needs to increase its population by a large amount.
Fang Xuanling responded with a serious face: "I obey the order!"
As the executive department for specific affairs, the Shangshu Province also has many officials.
Fang Xuanling and Li Jing serve as ministers' assistants, and they are only responsible for issuing tasks.
The specific arrangements and execution are the tasks of the six ministers.
Li Shimin’s gazeMoving back, he looked at the wrinkled Minister of the Ministry of Finance Dai Zhou, and then said loudly.
"The Ministry of Household Affairs must make accurate registrations and issue accurate rewards."
"Once any fraud is discovered, I will first hold you accountable, the Minister of Household Affairs!"
The territory of the Tang Dynasty was too large. If local state and county officials falsely reported the number of children born, they would defraud the court of fertility rewards.
That was a huge loss to the court.
Because there are too many local prefectures and counties, even if these officials concealed the report, it would be difficult for the court to find out.
Feeling the strong sense of oppression brought by Li Shimin, a layer of cold sweat broke out on Dai Zhou's thin back.
He quickly stood up and responded: "Your Majesty, please rest assured that I will formulate complete rules for award distribution to prevent unscrupulous officials from taking advantage of the loopholes!"
When he returned to his shift, Dai Zhou's face was full of helplessness.
Who asked His Majesty to set the reward for childbirth so high? People in the following prefectures and counties will definitely take risks in order to cheat the childbirth reward.
When the time comes, one of the nine is really adulterated, how will he identify and check it?
What a hot potato!
Li Shimin not only told Dai Zhou, he also looked at Wang Jian and said with a smile on his face.
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
"Wang Aiqing, the supervision of fertility rewards will be left to your Yushitai!"
"Once fraud is discovered, your Yushitai can make your own decisions!"
"I give you the right to kill first and then report later!"
Privately, Li Shimin was already angry with Li Shimin's decision announced in court.
Wang Jian stood up directly and responded: "I will never betray your majesty's trust!"
Watching his majesty and Wang Jian singing together, a group of officials who didn't know why were excited again.
What’s going on!
Is it possible that Your Majesty is confused?
Upon hearing the great authority granted by His Majesty to the Yushitai, the faces of all the civil and military officials were filled with expressions of disbelief.
Currently, serious cases sentenced by the Jingzhao Prefecture, especially those involving the death penalty, are jointly tried by the three highest judicial departments of the imperial court.
Dali Temple is the highest judicial department, responsible for hearing crimes committed by civil and military officials of the imperial court, as well as cases involving imprisonment or above in the capital.
The Ministry of Punishment is the highest judicial administrative department, reviewing the judgments of Dali Temple and participating in the trial activities of major cases.
The Yushitai is responsible for correcting hundreds of officials. Whether the judicial trials of Dali Temple and the Ministry of Punishment are reasonable is also within the scope of the Yushitai's supervision.
This is the responsibility assigned by the imperial court to the three judicial departments.
The trial process of the case is also very simple.
The Dali Temple will try the case and then hand it over to the Ministry of Punishment for review, while Yushitai is responsible for supervision.
This is the trial status of the case in Jingzhao Mansion.
Cases in local states and counties are much easier and are generally left to the local county magistrate for trial.
If people are dissatisfied with the punishment imposed by the local county magistrate, they can appeal to the state capital.
If the people in the state capital do not judge unfairly, the people will go to Beijing to complain.
Throughout the ages, very few people have been able to go to the capital to report crimes.
The vast majority of the people could not even leave the confines of the local prefectures and counties before they were robbed and killed by bandits who appeared on time.
Li Shimin knew it, but there was nothing he could do.
Because Datang is so big!
Li Shimin then asked: "Wang Aiqing, do you have any difficulties that you can tell me?"
Hearing His Majesty's words, Dai Zhou, the Minister of Household Affairs, was furious in his heart. call.
"Your Majesty, I have a problem, you should ask me!"
Unfortunately, Li Shimin did not look at him, but looked at Wang with a smile on his face. Cut.
This made Dai Zhou very depressed.
Wang Jian thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, there are currently 360 states in the Tang Dynasty. I want to expand the number of supervisory censors to 360."
"Let each of them Responsible for the supervision of a state, so that supervision can be implemented in place."
What a big appetite!
All the courtiers had expressions of surprise on their faces.
Currently, there are only 15 supervisory censors in the Yushitai. If the number is expanded to 360, the officialdom may usher in a major earthquake!
Moreover, in the past few years, in order to solve the problem of redundant personnel, the imperial court also specifically asked Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling to preside over the assessment, and laid off a large number of people.
Now that there are 345 new supervisory censors, isn’t this going back to the old path?
Moreover, raising so many officials puts great pressure on the salary support of the imperial court.
Baiguan originally thought that His Majesty would refuse Wang Jian's excessive request, but they never expected that His Majesty would not hesitate at all and directly made the decision.
"Wang Aiqing, I will do as you say!"
"For specific official additions, you and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will discuss it!"
Wang Jianhe Gao Shilian, the official minister, said in unison.
"Obey the order!"
Regarding His Majesty's agreement to Wang Jianti's request, Changsun Wuji, Lu Chengqing, Li Baiyao, Liu Jie, Wei Ting, Yang Shidao and others also Didn't stand up to stop it.
They knew that no matter how much they tried to persuade, they would not be able to convince the current His Majesty.
