Golden Summoner
Chapter 798 Blue Sky
Watching Elder Li and Elder Guo leave, Xia Ping'an put away the "Begging is not necessary for dirty officials" world bead, then called the shopkeeper he had summoned before, and took another formation plate that was exactly the same as before. Give it to the shopkeeper and let him set up a stall in the trading market to see if he can exchange for some boundary beads.
As for Xia Pingan himself, he quickly flew back to his training tower. After summoning Xia Laifu and the God of Fortune, and protecting the training room with a formation disk, he took out the world bead he had just obtained.
"It seems that today is really my harvest day, being able to fuse so many world beads!" Xia Pingan, who was holding the dark world bead, smiled slightly, then looked at the world bead and sighed again.
"Begging for Don't Use Dirty Officials" is a memorial written by Bao Zheng to Song Renzong when he was the censor.
During the Renzong era, the officialdom had become increasingly corrupt. Officials at all levels in the Song Dynasty were seeking power and accepting bribes day by day. Corrupt officials could not be punished. Even if occasionally a corrupt official was exposed, he or she would be given a light sentence for a serious crime, or he would be removed from office and reinstated at the end of the day. They pay bribes and then find a backer, or they move to become officials to avoid the limelight, or they are nepotistic and cling to classmates and fellow villagers. These corrupt officials have all kinds of tricks and are not afraid of the court's laws. But the people of the world see it, but they dare not get angry. He said that he was increasingly disappointed with the court and resentful.
In response to this situation, Bao Zheng, who was jealous of evil and unyielding, saw that the officialdom of the imperial court was so corrupt, so he wrote this famous "Memorandum" to Emperor Renzong, demanding that the imperial court severely punish corrupt officials and never hire "dirty officials" with stains.
When Bao Zheng wrote this memorial, he was using his own power to fight against the entire officialdom of the Song Dynasty. Once the memorial was published, Bao Zheng became a thorn in the side of all "dirty officials" and those who appointed "dirty officials", but Bao Zheng still Not afraid, still working hard, the name of Qingtian is well deserved.
However, a corrupt court cannot be saved by an upright official, even if the upright official is Bao Zheng. 64 years after the death of Song Renzong, the most shameful scene in Chinese history, the Jingkang Shame, broke out. This is Xia Ping'an's sigh s reason.
Gathering up the little emotion in his heart, Xia Pingan dropped blood on the boundary bead, and in the blink of an eye, it was wrapped in a cocoon of light.
…
Opening his eyes, Xia Pingan found that there was a desk in front of him. He was holding a brush in his hand, and he was in a simple study. Outside the study, the sun was shining brightly, and the chirping of birds could be heard. On the table in front of him, a piece of white paper was spread on the table. On the right hand side of the white paper, there were already written the six words "Begging for help without dirty officials".
A middle-aged staff member with a long beard was standing next to the desk, pressing one hand on the inkstone to prevent Xia Pingan from dipping the pen in ink. He looked at himself anxiously and advised earnestly, " Sir, please think twice. Nowadays, the officialdom in the world is becoming increasingly corrupt, and this is the custom everywhere. In that yamen, and in every state and capital, there are no dirty officials. Everyone in the court understands this tacitly. For a dirty official, some people protect him, some people promote him, some people use him, and some people use him. Cover it up, someone will help them turn the big thing into a small thing. Behind a dirty official is a large group of people or even a yamen. Once you get along, you will make countless enemies. It is too dangerous and a wise man will not do it!"
"That's why I want to write this memorial and present it to the saint!" Xia Pingan looked at the words on the table, quickly entered the role, and said with a serious face, "Integrity officials are the best for all people. The corrupt officials are the thieves of the people. How can the country and the country be governed by thieves? By appointing thieves as officials, the imperial court is killing and trampling on the hearts of the people in the world, causing people to lose their hearts and create disharmony inside and outside. At the moment, the world seems to be peaceful, and the harm caused by the dirty officials is not obvious. However, once the external thieves invade in the future, something unexpected will happen. How can the people of the world be willing to be driven by the thieves and do their best to serve the internal thieves? The Song Dynasty Sheji, because of these internal thieves Therefore, it is like a tower of sand that can be overthrown overnight. If this memorial is not good to me, I will feel uneasy!"
"Of course what your Excellency says is reasonable, but this court is not a place that is completely reasonable!" The staff member shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Once this memorial is published, it is tantamount to risking the disdain of the world. If something unexpected happens, I am afraid that Your Excellency will have to be the first to do so." Come and bear it!”
Xia Ping'an said generously, "During the Han Dynasty, corrupt officials who committed crimes for personal gains were never allowed to use their money, and their descendants were not allowed to serve as officials. During the Taizong period, corrupt officials had to perform hard labor, even if it happened to be an amnesty by the imperial court. Send them back to their place of origin and never hire them. This is the behavior of the imperial court and what the people of the world expect. How can I risk the world's disapproval with this memorial? The real people who risk the world's disapproval are the officials who have been appointed. , Sir, don’t try to stop me. I am loyal to the emperor for the sake of the Song Dynasty and the people of the country. I can take my head at any time. If you have the ability, feel free to take it!"
Seeing Xia Pingan's firm attitude, the staff member could only sigh, looked at Xia Pingan with admiration and helplessness, finally took his hand away from the inkstone, saluted Xia Pingan, and then exited the study.
Xia Pingan was the only one left in the study. Xia Pingan was quiet for a moment, looked at the writing on the paper, dipped his pen in ink, and started writing——
I heard: Integrity is the example of the people, and greed is the thief of the people. Today, the counties and counties are vast, and there are many officials, but the spoils and filth are spread out, and there is no day without them. . He comes with a case, either to make a loan to save his life, or to extend a favor to eliminate his provocation. Although there are heavy rules, they are just empty words, and the greedy and lewd people have nothing to fear. In the past two Han Dynasties, those who committed crimes for personal gain had their descendants imprisoned, and they were committing crimes! In the Taizong Dynasty, several officials committed crimes, and they were assigned to the Shaofu to serve as supervisors. When they deserved pardon, they said to the nearby officials: "This generation is guilty of crimes." If someone commits corruption and abuses, he can only be ordered to banish him, but he cannot be given an official title." He is responsible for corruption and cruelty, so he should be careful about his reputation and weapons! They are all ordered by the dynasty, so they can be followed. If you want to beg in the future, if your ministers and officials commit stolen goods to compensate for their crimes, they will not be given lenient loans, and they will be implemented in accordance with the regulations. Even if they are amnesty, they will not be hired; or if the crime is minor, they will have to be appointed as deputy envoys. In this way, honest officials know what they are advised to do, and greedy officials know what they are afraid of.
Xia Ping'an finished writing "Begging for Don't Use Dirty Officials" in one go. Before the ink dried, the book on the table began to glow, and Jie Zhu's world suddenly shattered.
…
In the secret room, Xia Pingan opened his eyes and fused the world bead. In less than ten minutes, the upper limit of the secret mandala's divine power had increased a bit as expected.
After fusing this world bead, Xia Pingan had no world bead to fuse for the time being, so he simply took out the materials for refining the machine puppet and started to refine the machine puppet in the training tower.
…
Xia Pingan was in the training tower and didn't care about things outside. In fact, on the night when Xia Pingan came to the Blood Front base, a news had spread throughout the Blood Front base - Heyunshan mine owner Mei Zheng resigned as mine owner. position, is about to go to the Great Abyss Realm...
