Red Alert 1895

Chapter 788: ICAC

After Liu Xue left, Wang Guorui met another person, but this person was a man. This person is about forty years old, which is the prime of life for officials of most eras who are troublesome. Except that Wang Guorui had the red police cheating device, which allowed him to become the emperor at a young age, and led a large group of young people to the top. But this is not a normal phenomenon. After a long period of peace, I am afraid that central officials will be the mainstream when they are in their forties. And this guy still looks in the prime of his life.

"Mr. Yunjie, how have you been these few days? It's okay, right?" Wang Guorui asked.

And the forty-year-old man immediately knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, the sinners are terrified!"

"Get up, we have abolished the etiquette of kneeling. And you are not a criminal, at least you did not help Manqing to do too much evil, and you were able to surrender at the end, so you were not sent to court for trial. However, if Under normal circumstances, you may also be a commoner from now on, or go to some idle jobs to retire." Wang Guorui said.

But this middle-aged man couldn't help feeling bitter, because he was from the Manchu Qing Dynasty. After the Manchu Qing Dynasty was destroyed by Wang Guorui, the governors of all places also announced their support for Wang Guorui and changed their banners. But he was unlucky. He was in Shaanxi and Gansu. His previous position was the chief envoy of Gansu in the Qing Dynasty, and the governor of Gansu was a Manchu. Naturally, he could not take the initiative to seek refuge. He was coerced by the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu to resist, and finally surrendered when he was about to fail. And this made him feel helpless, but he also knew that there was no place for him in this imperial court.

His reputation is not as well-known as the Westernization School like Li Hongzhang and Zhang Zhidong. Before that, his status in the Manchu Qing court was nothing more than a political envoy. In terms of his rank and power, he was nothing more than a deputy provincial cadre. It is one level lower than the governor. Therefore, if this kind of position is to be arranged at the same level, I am afraid that Wang Guorui's old subordinates will not allow him to occupy a provincial official position. And if the lower level arrangement. None of them are suitable, so his level is the least embarrassing position. So the best way. That is to say, either resign directly, and then get a pension from Wang Guorui to retire. Or it is to go to a idle job to support the elderly, and completely fade out of politics in this life.

However, he thought that he was only thirty-nine years old, so he was naturally unwilling to retire like this. But he is in an unembarrassing position, and he is not qualified to meet the new emperor Wang Guorui as the first choice. If it was a manchu Qing veteran of the level of Li Hongzhang and Zhang Zhidong, he might still be able to be received by Wang Guorui. But he is an unembarrassing and embarrassing chief envoy. That's too low. If he, the chief envoy, is qualified, then many people will be qualified.

But he didn't expect that Wang Guorui would send someone to Gansu to invite him, which surprised him.

"Does it have to be reused for me? Impossible?" The middle-aged man thought to himself.

This middle-aged man thought of many kinds of ideas, that is to say, there are many possibilities. Maybe Wang Guorui wanted to use him for surgery, but he didn't know when he offended Wang Guorui. But if he wasn't used for surgery, what would he do? Reuse him? But he himself quickly denied this answer, thinking that he was nothing to the emperor Wang Guorui as a small chief envoy. Perhaps Wang Guorui would deliberately let some veterans of the Qing Dynasty take some official positions and use them as political vases. But it's not his turn as a little chief envoy!

There are many more people who are qualified to be a political vase than him. Li Hongzhang Zhang Zhidong which one is not more qualified than him? So there are many people who are more qualified than him to be this political vase, so he doesn't think he is qualified. As for the reuse of real power, he couldn't even think about it.

"Old Cen! What do you think you are doing now? I don't want to hide it. I really want to break up and reuse you, but I also want to see what you think!" Wang Guorui said.

"Oh? Reuse me?" That "Old Cen" was also suddenly shocked, this one is the pie in the sky!

And then, Wang Guorui went on to say: "I plan to set up an ICAC, and you will be the director of the ICAC!"

"ICAC? Supervisory power?" the old Cen immediately asked in surprise.

This old Cen also obviously knows the system established by Wang Guorui, and this system revolves around three major powers and two secondary powers to control cattle. The three major powers are the legislative and judicial administration, and the lower ones are the examination power and the supervisory power. But even the second level of power is one of the highest powers and cannot be easily ignored. Especially since they don't interfere with each other. In this way, he will let them have a more independent management environment, and there will be no major problems.

And this Independent Commission Against Corruption is obviously based on the power of supervision. It is the responsibility of the supervisory officer. From the perspective of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, in fact, as the name suggests, it is to monitor whether officials can be clean. Whether it is possible not to embezzle and accept bribes and other acts that violate professional ethics.

The reason why Wang Guorui named this supervisory agency the Office of Integrity and Truth is that he hopes to be able to specifically supervise whether officials are honest and clean, and whether they maintain integrity. As for the officials' personal morality and those professional abilities, that is to say, it is the responsibility of the examination institute. If a person with poor professional ability is selected and then fails, that is, the recommender of the examination institute has to bear a certain degree of responsibility. Joint and several liability. The Independent Commission Against Corruption is specifically responsible for maintaining a clean government, ensuring the integrity of officials and preventing them from corruption and bribery.

Wang Guorui believes that corruption is more serious than ordinary ability problems. If it is just an accident caused by ability problems, it can be remedied in many cases, and its influence is limited. Some people say that corrupt people are capable, but this is actually a fallacy in Wang Guorui's eyes. Wang Guorui does not deny that some villains are capable, and they cannot commit crimes without the ability! But it still depends on where he uses his ability, this is the biggest problem. Even Wang Guorui, a later generation, has heard of a situation in colleges and universities. College students who are virtuous and talented are superior products, and those who are virtuous are inferior products. Talent without virtue is a waste product, talent without virtue is a dangerous product. Therefore, if a person lacks morality, the higher his talent in the end, the greater the harm to society in the end.

The same is true for corrupt officials. If a corrupt official has talent but uses it for his own benefit, how much of his talent is used to govern for the people? If a corrupt official sits in a position, the destructive power he causes is far greater than that of a mediocre official. Even if a mediocre official speaks an official tone, even if he dawdles, even if the local economy and various undertakings cannot be developed, at least he will not cause too much damage. But those corrupt officials are different. It is undeniable that corrupt officials may have ability, but the greater the ability, the greater the destructive power. And the damage he caused was to take the local resources as his own, and then squander them vigorously to obtain wealth for himself. And the more capable it is, the greater its destructive power in the end. Therefore, it is a false proposition to say that corrupt officials are capable, because the destructive power they cause is greater than that of officials who are mediocre and idle. One corrupt official may be as destructive as a hundred mediocre officials, or even more.

Therefore, Wang Guorui mainly arrests corrupt officials, not mediocre ones. It is unrealistic to expect to find out all mediocre officials. However, those corrupt officials must be found out, and there is absolutely zero tolerance, so that they can ensure the integrity of their subordinate officials.

"Your Majesty, why did you let me?" the old Cen asked.

It stands to reason that such an important position is one of the five highest rights, but Wang Guorui actually gave it up to someone who had worked in the Manchu Qing Dynasty, so this is simply unbelievable. However, Wang Guorui's words made him understand.

"Those guys are too familiar with each other!" Wang Guorui said.

What Wang Guorui said completely made him understand. Wang Guorui's statement is actually very simple. If one's subordinates are allowed to supervise other subordinates, then in the end, the left hand may supervise the right hand. Can they supervise anything? If Wang Guorui let his cronies, no matter people from the Democratic Rehabilitation Party or the Huafu Party, be the director of the ICAC~lightnovelpub.net~ Judging from the fact that they come from the same system, expect them to supervise each other, then Totally impossible. So this is actually an official protection.

Why is the ancient censor theoretically supervising officials, but in the end it is useless? In fact, in the final analysis, the ancient censors themselves were also bureaucrats. Letting people inside the bureaucratic group supervise the bureaucratic group, isn't it letting the left-handed Su supervise the right-handed? Is this useful? As a result, the ancient censors became nothing more than a tool for bureaucrats to fight against each other, and there was no real supervisory role at all.

Therefore, if Wang Guorui asked his subordinates from the same party to be in charge of the supervision of the house, they would definitely not be able to supervise anything. At that time, Wang Guorui might not take long, and the bureaucratic system will be rotten, and it will rot soon.

So let this official who was born in the Qing Dynasty be in charge, which is conducive to supervision. Because they don't have much interaction with the bureaucratic system under their own hands, they are naturally not afraid of his vigorous supervision, will not be affected too much, and are not afraid of all kinds of pressure. Therefore, Wang Guorui of the Office of Integrity and Zhen asked this old Cen who was born in the Qing Dynasty to be responsible for the establishment and management, that is, he hoped to get rid of the relationship network with his subordinates, avoid being influenced by each other, and finally let them protect each other by their own officials.
