Valley Emperor

Vol 2 Chapter 714: Princess Huichen has grown up

Genius remember the address of this site in one second: (Top Chinese), the fastest update! No ads! The inspectorate of the Tang Dynasty is not the same as the inspectorate of the Ming Dynasty and other ancient feudal dynasties!

The Inspectorate of the Tang Dynasty only had two functions and powers, one was to prosecute various civil cases, and the other was to supervise officials.

The former is the basic and essential work of the Inspectorate. If you do it well, it is your duty. If you do it well, get out!

The latter is a bonus item. The officials of the Inspectorate who want to get promoted and get rich basically expect to catch a corrupt official and successfully convict it! Because the officials of the Inspectorate can only be promoted internally, and the main consideration for internal promotion is how many corrupt officials the officials of the Inspectorate have arrested and what level of corrupt officials.

If an inspector in the prefectural inspectorate can convict the local prefect, then it goes without saying that he will immediately be promoted to the province or even directly transferred to the central government.

So the officials in the inspectorate, smelling the smell of corrupt officials, just like the smell of being promoted and making a fortune, they immediately rushed forward.

You go to the Inspectorate to report corrupt officials, and the officials of the Inspectorate will give you food and drink immediately. If the report is true, the Inspectorate will give you bonuses!

This is also the reason. In many cases, the local inspectorate often has a great contradiction with the local government, because they are naturally antagonistic. If the officials in the inspectorate want to get promoted and rich, they have to arrest corrupt officials.

Of course, the above can only be said to be an ideal situation. No matter how good the system is, people will destroy it. If the local inspectors prefer not to be promoted, and insist on being in trouble with the local officials, then there is no way to do it. , At this time, we can only rely on the inspection and anti-corruption agencies within the Inspectorate to deal with it.

Of course, there is another unofficial situation, that is, the Investigation and Statistics Section of the Hanlin Academy, in addition to countering espionage and supervising major changes in public sentiment, occasionally intervene in such officials' major illegal affairs.

However, they still have the power to investigate secretly, and finally report it to Li Xuan. As for whether to deal with it, it depends on Li Xuan's mood.

Although officials, especially senior officials, are not too many in the Tang Dynasty, it has been two years since the rise of the Tang Dynasty. People have already begun to be eroded by hedonism.

In this regard, Li Xuan also turned a blind eye, unless the influence is relatively large and the nature is relatively bad, otherwise, these ministers under Li Xuan's opponents will not take any money to accept some money.

After all, people follow you to fight the country, and the hard days of not getting paid for several years are better. Now that the life of the Tang Dynasty is getting better, you still don't let people enjoy the glory and wealth.

Although the salaries for officials in the Tang Dynasty are not low, an official in these years often has a large family to support, and they have to maintain the dignity of the officials, which is also expensive, and the current Tang Dynasty Fighting every day, financial revenue is used for military expenses, administrative expenses are in short supply, and salaries arrears to officials are also common.

Therefore, Li Xuan doesn't care much about the middle and senior officials under his command who are just making a little money to improve their lives and maintain their decency.

But everything has to have a degree. Once this degree is passed, Li Xuan will not hesitate to let the investigation and statistics department of the Hanlin Academy take out the evidence and deal with it.

In the past year, although the Shangshu-level officials have not dealt with it, the Shilang has already killed two, and the fourth- and fifth-rank officials under the Shilang have killed a lot.

However, these matters dealing with middle and senior officials are generally relatively secretive. In many cases, they are not directly arrested and convicted, but people from the Investigation and Statistics Department of the Hanlin Academy are directly sent to the door, bringing a copy of Li Xuan's decree and poison. Or a white silk.

Let these corrupt officials kill themselves!

Usually, in order to protect the family members and the name behind them, even if these officials are unwilling, they will still shake the poison and drink the poison in the end. If they don't want to drink it, it's fine.

This kind of thing usually spreads among the high-level officials of the imperial court, but the outside world generally does not know it. This is mainly to control the influence. After all, the current Datang Dynasty is still in the rising stage, and Li Xuan can’t make people feel that the current Datang Dynasty It is already depraved and corrupted, full of corrupt officials!

In particular, the image of middle and high-level officials needs to be maintained!

It is necessary to make people feel that the Tang Dynasty as a whole is still good, His Majesty is still wise and great, and the ministers in the court are still fair and honest, but there are only a small group of middle and low-level officials who are greedy and pervert the law.

But the actual situation is that the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, and the ethos of greed and perversion of the law has always been the upper and lower hands.

Even Liu Bagou, who is the most self-disciplined in the court, is no longer wearing a tattered Taoist robe, but has lived a life of fine clothes and food, but the interesting thing is that this person is now rich and prosperous, but Not even married.

As for Wang Wenhua's son-in-law, there are seven or eight concubines, and in less than two years, four sons have been born!

This makes Li Xuan, who has only one daughter, quite envious to tell the truth!

Dong Yunyun was pregnant last year and gave birth to a little princess to Li Xuan this fall. Although it was said that she gave birth to a princess instead of a prince, the Queen Mother Bai and even the ministers outside were quite disappointed, but Li Xuan was happy. very!

This is his first child after two lifetimes, although he also hopes that the child born by Dong Yunyun should be a boy, so that the problem of the heir of the empire can be solved and the country will be solidified.

Moreover, Empress Dong is the Empress of the Harem, and the first prince she gives birth will be the legitimate prince, the Crown Prince of the Tang Dynasty.

But since it is not a prince, but a princess, it is useless to think.

But aside from political factors, Li Xuan actually has no prejudice against men and women, so he also attaches great importance to his first child.

Because the mortality rate of children in this era is too high, the royal family is no exception, so Li Xuan has also put a lot of effort into preventing the death of his little princess.

He even made a scientific parenting plan in person. He chose the healthiest women to act as nurses, and the maids who took care of the princess were taken care of by a few personal maids around him. Li Xuan's maids were basically royal ladies. Born in Yuan, she was a female orphan trained by the royal family, and the Queen Mother Bai personally trained her. Her quality is quite good in all aspects. Moreover, most of these personal maids around Li Xuan have been trained by Li Xuan and have some basic science. Literacy.

At the same time, the little princess's daily life is subject to strict hygiene standards. Anyone who is ill, especially those who are suspected of having a cold, must not approach the princess's residence. This order even includes Dong Yunyun and the Queen Mother Bai.

At the same time, he asked people from the Royal Pacific Hospital to station people to monitor any risk of illness at any time.

But even so, Li Xuan felt a little uneasy in his heart. Unfortunately, the medical level of these years is still too poor. Although he has established the National Medical Department, he has also selected a few people to study medicine in the young army camp.

And they started to use the simple telescopes they made to study microorganisms, and let those medical students start to dissect corpses secretly and study the structure of the human body.

But all this time is too short, it is almost impossible for Li Xuan to see the emergence of modern medicine in a short time!

Li Xuan, who attached great importance to the eldest daughter, even followed the advice of the Queen Mother Bai against his will, saying that it was for the princess to grow up safely and not to give the title prematurely. At that time, the canonization ceremony was held directly, and the official princess title was awarded.

Now it's just a name 'Li Wei', nickname Weier!

Of course, Li Xuan will not tell anyone that 'Weier' is the name of his first love girlfriend!

Taking this name can be regarded as a glimmer of hope for the past life!

However, although Li Xuan attaches great importance to the young daughter Li Wei, but he attaches importance to it does not mean that others attach importance to it, at least the Queen Mother does not attach much importance to it, because in her eyes, only a boy can be considered a success.

Not to mention Li Wei, the granddaughter, even if it is Princess Huichen, the biological daughter of Empress Dowager Bai, Empress Dowager Bai does not pay much attention to it. Otherwise, she will not let Huichen's weight continue to soar in recent years. The three-year-old Huichen weighed less than 70 kilograms~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In addition, her character was not very tall, so when she looked at it from a distance, it looked like a round ball.

However, apart from being able to eat fat, Princess Huichen has not suffered from illness or suffering in recent years. Although she is not taken seriously, she is the eldest princess after all, and there is no problem with food and clothing.

Even in the early years, Empress Dowager Bai couldn't even think of having someone teach Princess Huichen to read and write. In the end, when Li Xuan found out that Princess Huichen was still illiterate, he specially found a few with literary talents. The female official gave Huichen an enlightenment to read, and after more than a year of study, she was finally not as ignorant as before, she only knew how to eat and eat!

Speaking of which, Princess Huichen is actually quite pitiful. In the huge palace, my grandma doesn't love my uncle and doesn't hurt. To be honest, except for Li Xuan, the elder brother who occasionally cares about her, other people basically don't care about her. , even the Empress Dowager Bai is the same.

This is thirteen years old. If it is placed in other feudal royal families in ancient times, it is already grown up. It is estimated that there are mothers and concubines who have already begun to prepare to choose a concubine for a princess of this age. action.

Don't think that what Queen Mother Bai is thinking is that she wants Princess Huichen to stay by her side for two more years, and she is worried that Huichen is too young and too early to marry and hurt her body. This idea is only for Li Xuan, and Queen Mother Bai categorically There is no such idea!

The truth is that Empress Dowager Bai never remembered that she still has a daughter who is almost at an age where she can prepare to choose a concubine first, and she can get married directly in a few years.

The current Empress Dowager Bai has already set her sights on Concubine Ye's Shu and Wang's Concubine. Because these two women are already pregnant, Empress Dowager Bai is waiting for them to give birth to a son for Li Xuan and the Tang Dynasty. An heir!
