The Emperor looked at him closely and said,"Hurry up and say it!"”
Dealing with corruption had always been a headache for him.
The Great Zhou Dynasty had been rebuilt for 16 years, but there were still people who were corrupt.
He was especially helpless when he saw the Northern Marquis's crime.
Even when he regained the land of the Great Zhou back then, he did not feel that it was so taxing.
The world had been conquered, but the problem of corrupt officials could not be dealt with!
Ning Tian pondered for a moment and recalled the Dragon Slaying Technique he had seen before. After a while, he said,
"Your Majesty, this servant has already explained the first plan. The emperor will be punished the same as the commoners if he breaks the law!”
"Now, this servant will begin to talk about the second plan. Increase the salaries of the officials and give them subsidies.”
"Nowadays, the salaries of officials are too low. Some officials are even worse off than the people who do business.”
"Most of the people in the world are laymen. There are too few officials with lofty aspirations and integrity.”
"This servant heard that the corrupt officials who were arrested complained a lot. Even the treatment cost money, how could they not be greedy?”
"Even if the salary is raised, there will still be people who are corrupt, but at least it can reduce a lot of corruption.”
"Some people are forced to be corrupt.”
Xiao Ding's gaze looked towards Ning Tian, his eyes filled with appreciation. He had long thought about this point and it was a plan that was about to be implemented.
"Very good, then what is the third plan?”
Ning Tian said in a low voice,"
"The third plan is to prohibit officials from borrowing grain from others in private. Once they are discovered, they will be confiscated.”
"This way, we can prevent the nobles from lending money to officials in the name of bribery.”
"Fourth, establish a talent reserve system.”
"Once a corrupt official is executed, we can immediately send a new official to replace him.”
"Many corrupt officials are becoming more and more unscrupulous because they think that the Emperor will not kill them all and that no one can replace their positions.”
"This reserve of talents can also be used to supervise the local officials, killing two birds with one stone.”
"The talent system can give them a sense of crisis.”
Xiao Ding was somewhat puzzled when he heard this. He immediately asked,
"What if the reserve talents are also corrupt?”
"Then your crime is even greater." Ning Tian said lightly.”
"Then what is the fifth plan?"
"The fifth plan is to confiscate the property."
"Seize the house?" Xiao Ding asked doubtfully.
" That's right," Ning Tian said." As long as it's an official whose corruption isn't that serious, we'll confiscate their property. Once we confiscate their property, we can make them unable to recover. The money they get will definitely be more than what he's greedy for."”
"Seizing houses can reduce their desire for corruption.”
Xiao Ding clapped his hands and praised,"This plan is good!”
"What's the last plan?" he asked eagerly.”
Ning Tian smiled slightly." Your Majesty, Your Majesty has already used the sixth strategy. That is to execute the entire family!"”
"This servant is merely repeating Your Majesty's wise decision. All the strategies are based on Your Majesty's national policies, so in the end, this is still Your Majesty's decision.”
Xiao Ding suddenly laughed loudly.
"Not bad, Zhen is very satisfied!"
"From today onwards, you are the Deputy Chief of the Imperial Household!”
"However, you are still responsible for my food!”
How could Xiao Ding not know in his heart that Ning Tian was taking all the credit for him? This was for his face. His way of doing things could be described as smooth and slick, even some old eunuchs could not compare.
However, he didn't know that Little Ning Zi was so smart at such a young age.
This mental technique was really different from ordinary people.
If used well, it would be a right-hand man. If not used well, it would be a hidden danger.
Xiao Ding did not know if he was happy or worried.
His heart began to feel complicated!
Ning Tian immediately kowtowed and said,"This servant kowtows and thanks Your Majesty!" This servant is overwhelmed by flattery! This servant will do my best for Your Majesty until I die!”
"You can get up." Xiao Ding said with a smile.
Then, he looked at Ning Tian fiercely and said,"How did a eunuch like you find so many?”
Ning Tian noticed the subtle change in the Emperor's expression and pretended to tremble.
"Your Majesty! Before this servant entered the palace, I had once taken a martial arts expert as my master. During my travels with him, my master chatted with scholars. This servant was influenced by him and only understood a little.”
Xiao Ding frowned slightly before he said,"Then where is your master now? Can you invite me over?"
"Your Majesty, Master has already gone west. This servant will never see Master again."”
Master, please forgive me. I was forced to say this.
I can only say that if you die, the emperor won't look for you!
Xiao Ding pondered for a moment and said,"Then forget it. You really should properly thank this Master of yours!"”
Then, he said seriously,
"Remember, you can only swallow what happened today!”
"This servant understands!"
......
In less than two hours, the news that Ning Tian had been promoted to the position of Deputy Director of the Imperial Household had reached the Eastern Palace!
Crown Prince Xiao Yun's expression changed drastically."
"What is it? That little eunuch was actually promoted to the position of Deputy Chief of the Imperial Household?!”
"What did he do? BenGong underestimated him!"
"Your Highness, I don't know either. I only heard that the Emperor received him in the Health Palace for half an hour. After that, he rose to the top…" Lin Yiyi said.
"Could it be that Imperial Father already knows that he's someone I sent into the palace?" Xiao Yun pondered.”
"Impossible, there must be something fishy about it!" Lin Yiyi said.”
"I'm afraid that now that the young eunuch is rising to the top, will he be out of our control?”
Xiao Yun blinked her beautiful eyes and said,"He dares!"!”
Ps: votes, the little author acted coquettishly and begged! Thank you in advance.
