Chapter 829: Change customs

Entering June, the weather in Qingzhou suddenly became hot.
At this time of the year, he missed the contemporary undershirts and big trousers very much. After all, compared to such a cool dress, he can only walk around in the dragon robe now.
But fortunately, he is the emperor, and there are people waiting at all times. In order not to be distracted by the heat when dealing with government affairs, he asked Qian Dafu to find saltpeter and water, and at the same time let the Equipment Division create a hand-cranked fan.
Saltpeter in contact with water will absorb a lot of heat in the water and cause the water to freeze. The use of a fan can blow this cold wind over.
In this way, it is cool and humid, and the effect is not much different from installing an air conditioner in the house.
The only disadvantage is that it needs to consume the strategic resource of saltpeter, but since taking control of Bashu, the Department of Minerals has completely taken over the saltpeter caves in the Shu area. He finally does not have to worry about scarcity of saltpeter resources.
Qian Dafu always stood outside the door when Xiao Ming was dealing with government affairs, but now he is standing inside the door.
This is what Xiao Ming sympathized with his hard work. This move was small, but it moved Qian Dafu very much.
While he was enjoying the coolness in the house, a young came outside, and Qian Dafu asked the young before returning to the house.
"The emperor, the Korean delegation has arrived in Qingzhou and was arranged by the Foreign Affairs Office in the Jinxiu Restaurant." Qian Dafu said.
Xiao Ming was correcting the zhezi he sent, and raised his head to ponder, he said, "I will see them tomorrow, forget it today, I'm not in the mood."
Qian Dafu responded, and turned around to let the notify the Foreign Affairs Office, then turned around and asked; "The emperor was quite happy just now, why is he not in the mood now?"
Xiao Ming has always trusted Qian Dafu, and he likes to say anything to him. He sighed and said, "It's not the corruption of officials. It's only a few years since I became the throne. These officials can't help it. I stretched out my hand to make money."
"It turned out to be this." Qian Dafu thought for a while and said: "Since the beginning of the establishment of the country, the corruption problem of this official has become more and more serious. In the past, the ancestors beheaded tens of thousands of officials in a rage. There is a lack of officials everywhere in the country, but this is still impossible to cure, and although the officials in Dayu State have graduated from Qingzhou University, most of them are old officials in the past. These officials are used to corruption, how can they be stopped. "
Xiao Ming nodded. Qian Dafu was right. 80% of the corruption problem was caused by the former officials, and 20% by the officials from Qingzhou University.
This is just a note sent by the Supervisory Yuan, and there are probably more officials who have not been found.
For this problem, Xiao Ming sometimes feels very powerless. The contemporary founding emperor of Ming Dynasty Zhu Yuanzhang almost killed the officials and failed to contain this problem. How should he solve it now?
After pondering for a while, he said: "The root cause of corruption is not to kill, but to change customs. For thousands of years, Confucian courtesy is the root of corruption. This is a culture of corruption. As long as the soil of this culture is not eradicated, Yu Guo will be corrupt forever."
At this moment, Xiao Ming felt that the development of science and technology is very important, but it is also very important to eradicate some dross culture, although Confucian etiquette emphasizes etiquette.
But after thousands of years of inheritance, this kind of etiquette has gradually extended to things such as gifts that need to be given.
In addition to this custom, the relationship between society and the society of human affection are also differently recognized by him, because this is essentially a continuation of a clan relationship, and it is also a drawback that hinders the realization of the rule of law in Da Yu.
In this relationship, officials accept bribes through favors, thereby allowing the law to be trampled.
At the same time, when one becomes an official, the whole family ascends to heaven. For a long time, where the imperial ruling power is weak, there will be clan forces controlling a certain government department or even a certain place.
"Change customs and customs, change customs and customs..." Xiao Ming kept repeating, because this was the solution to the root and the place to avoid the rule of dynasty.
Qian Dafu was already dumbfounded, and Xiao Ming proposed a solution he had never heard of.
"The emperor, the people of Dayu are accustomed to this kind of life. How difficult is it to change?" Qian Dafu shook his head.
"It's difficult to say, and it's not difficult to say, it's not difficult to say, the court represents the law, and Confucianism represents the moral restraint of the people, this change of customs naturally still needs to start from the root of culture, Confucianism changes customs and customs, and the Great Yu country changes customs and customs." Xiao Ming said.
Through these seven years of observation, Xiao Ming found that the concept of Confucianism has taken root in the hearts of the people, and their status in the hearts of the people is inferior to Western Christianity.
Christian believers abide by the doctrine, while officials and ordinary people who trust Confucianism abide by Confucianism.
If the folks use the spirit of soaking the pig cage to deal with corruption, the problem of corruption in Da Yu will be solved.
Thinking of this, Xiao Ming felt that it was right that Confucianism had not been completely eradicated. Perhaps he could be both a great Confucian and an emperor of the Great Yu, and he could cure the ills of the great Yu that had been formed over thousands of years in both material and spiritual aspects.
Qian Dafu stared at Xiao Ming blankly. He felt that this emperor who had never followed the rules was about to make a big noise.
"By the way, where are the three Ge Yiren now?"
Xiao Ming asked, this matter naturally requires the cooperation of three people.
He decided to create a century scam so that the three of them would become great Confucian scholars representing the thinking of the new era, and influence the thinking of the people of Da Yu through their works.
Of course, this thought must pass through his hands.
"They were in Qufu, and after the news of the victory of the Northern Expedition came back, the three people went to Qufu. I have to say that these three were also extremely smart. With the prestige of the Northern Expedition, they are more confident."
Xiao Ming nodded lightly ~EbookFREE.me~ and asked them to come back to see me. "
"Yes, the emperor." Qian Dafu responded.
After figuring out this matter, Xiao Ming wrote a pen to approve the memorial. Although it is necessary to change the customs, these corrupt officials must be given a heavy blow. Otherwise, the punishment is light and less fearful, and it will not be a shock to the current officialdom.
After reviewing the memorial in hand, Xiao Ming began to think about how to deal with Goryeo.
Obviously, the current Goryeo is nothing but fish on the chopping board to him, let him kill, even if Goryeo and him desperately, the final outcome is nothing but defeat.
However, the soldiers who surrendered without a fight are always better than force. Since Gaoli has chosen to surrender wisely, he must take this opportunity to completely assimilate Korea and become a mansion of the Great Yu Kingdom.
This may be a long time, but it is an unwise choice to leave an unstable factor by the side of Dayu.
Therefore, what he has to do is to assimilate, erase the history of Korea, and let the Koreans tame it.
