The court attends the court... the time for the emperor and the ministers to discuss major events.

When Zhenguan was just beginning, Li Shimin usually had to pay morning court every day. At that time, the officials of the Tang Dynasty were in great pain. They got up in the early morning and followed them to the palace in a carriage and lanterns.

What makes people speechless is that after the gangsters finish, officials can only sit on the ground and eat lunch on the corridor, which is "food under the corridor".

Fortunately, in the late Zhenguan period, Li Shimin finally changed. Officials under the third rank (excluding the third rank) had one or five days a month, while those above the third rank also had to eat on the court on the nine days.

Of course, if there is a big thing, then Chaozhan will still start early.

This time when the Earth Dragon turned around, Li Shimin had to attend court almost every day. Today, a group of officials, under the joint of several censors, would submit a complaint to Li You together. This complaint was very sinister. If Li Shimin issued an order, Li You apologized to the people of the Tang Dynasty and asked Li You to commit suicide.

Because suicide is the last decency of the Li family royal family.

................

"Are you really going to let Li You die..."

Before going to the court, Yin Hongzhi's mansion looked at Yan Hongxin who was proud in front of him, and Yin Hongzhi asked slightly.

"What's wrong... You feel distressed, because Li You is your nephew, but your brother-in-law, don't forget... You asked our brothers to take care of your nephew.

I feel distressed now, don’t you think it’s ridiculous?”

"I feel sorry for you... I don't have it... He is the surname Li, and I have an irreconcilable grudge with the surname Li, but... you made things so big, have you ever thought, if this fails, what will you face..."

Yin Hongzhi shook his head and said, "It is not easy for me to save you. Have you never thought about living well at all?"

"Hmph...!" Yan Hongxin sneered: "After all the time, I want to protect your nephew, sorry... This time, I will never fail, your nephew is dead.

As long as he dies... even if my brother Hongliang's revenge is avenged, then it's time for me to rest in peace even if I die...!"

"There is no cure to save you..." Yin Hongzhi snorted coldly and walked out of Yan Hongxin's room. Some people would definitely think that his uncle was still an uncle, and his blood was thicker than water. When Yin Hongzhi knew that his nephew was going to be attacked, he would still sympathize with him.

In fact, this is because he is thinking too much. Yin Hongzhi’s anger is not that Li You is going to be killed by someone. What he is angry is that Li You did not directly confront Li Shimin. If this is the case, Li You will be killed, and then Li Shimin would not have tasted the deepest pain.

Without father and son fighting each other, this is what Yin Hongzhi feels most angry. He looks down on Yan Hongxin and only knows how to kill someone and pay for his life... a fool, you should know that the art of revenge is very high, and the Yan brothers and sisters are very disappointing.

After walking out of the house and getting on the carriage, Yin Hongzhi went to the palace and looked at the black Chang'an City outside the carriage window. Yin Hongzhi frowned, and no one knew what his frown meant.

....................................

Yin time...that is three o'clock in the morning, this time is the time for the ministers to get up. It is about the moment of Yin time. The ministers arrive at Danfeng Gate and wait. At this time, the ministers will also exchange greetings.

If you have something to eat, you can eat something. When the drums are ringing at the Danfeng Gate, the ministers must line up; when the bell rings around 5 a.m., the palace gate will open.

All the officials entered one by one, and after entering the Tai Chi Palace, they formed a team in the square.

If there is cough, spitting or unstable among the officials, they will be recorded by the censor responsible for the inspection and waiting for treatment.

There was no kneeling ceremony in the Tang Dynasty... In the later dynasties, all officials performed one kneeling three bowing ceremony. Only officials of the fourth rank or above have the opportunity to talk to the emperor, ministers report government affairs to the emperor, and the emperor raises questions or makes a reply.

There were no such common rituals in the Tang Dynasty.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, Li Shimin officially went to court, and all officials met, and then bowed and bowed and shouted long live...!

Li Shimin sat on the dragon throne and immediately asked how far the disaster rescue of the Earth Dragon turned over was. Fang Xuanling immediately bowed forward and answered, telling Li Shimin that the current disaster of the Earth Dragon turned over was already moving in a positive direction.

The disaster relief envoy served as Changsun Wuji had arrived at the affected area and brought Li Shimin's will. A large amount of food had been transported to the affected area. The Imperial Medical Office also began to prevent and control the plague.

I believe better news will come soon.

Hearing this, Li Shimin felt a little relieved. As long as the earth dragon turned over this time, Li Shimin would be really grateful. Otherwise, he would have issued an edict of guilt, so what would he have to be ashamed of himself?

"Okay...!" Li Shimin nodded slightly and expressed his satisfaction moderately, but Li Shimin was not happy for long. At this time, a censor from the Censorate suddenly came out of the officials.

"Your Majesty... I have something to say."

Li Shimin looked at the censor and frowned slightly because he didn't know what the censor of the Censorate came out to do at this time. Could there be something wrong with it? Or if someone was greedy or someone was corruption and abuse of power? You must know that this is the time when everyone is united in the enemy. If someone does these bad things, it would be bad.

Many people don’t know the Censorate. Let me introduce the Censorate (Supervision) in "Qing Yu Nian". Everyone should know... The Censor (Supervision) Censorate has eight departments (departments), one is responsible for supervising hundreds of officials in Beijing, the second is responsible for intelligence analysis, the third is responsible for targeted scientific research (specially studying weapons, poisons and other spy war equipment), and the fourth is responsible for monitoring information from hundreds of officials and enemy countries. The fifth is the heavy-armed special forces that make the enemy frightened - the Black Cavalry. The six is ​​responsible for assassination, the seven is responsible for torture (note the wording), and the eight is responsible for public opinion supervision.

It can be said to be a shock to Kyoto.

However, the Censorate of the Tang Dynasty was in line with the Censorate (Supervision) in "Qing Yu Nian".

Although the Censorate only has three courts, it also has eight powers.

Let’s talk about the most amazing thing after all. The first is “recommended prison lawsuits”. The Censorate can supervise any judicial case, including cases tried by the emperor himself, and has its own prison, which can be both an athlete and a referee.

The reason why the emperor dared to trust the Censorate so much is because the selection and appointment of staff of the Censorate is very strict, and those who can be shortlisted are required to have the spirit of "steadiness, vigor and perseverance in the face of affairs". In order to avoid being influenced by the outside world, the primary selection is not directly recommended by the Prime Minister and appointed by the emperor.

The second is that the Censorate can supervise any official, which means that the Censorate has a great say in the promotion and deposition of officials. In fact, according to the policy at that time, the Censorate can directly supervise (influence) even the examinations at all levels, so "the Censorate is afraid."

Third, economic supervision, the Censorate has the power to supervise any economic behavior across the country, such as government fiscal and tax audits, transportation and warehousing supervision, market economy supervision, etc.

The fourth speech monitoring, the remarks here include the emperors and officials in the court, as well as the peddlers and pawns in rural areas. No matter who they are, the Censorate treats them equally.

Fifth, local supervision, local supervision generally uses double checks and three random inspections. Double checks refer to the coexistence of routine inspections and random spot checks. Three random refers to the place, time, and candidates are all randomly appointed. (If the referee goes down the sports field, if there is no point restriction, there will be big trouble)

The most powerful one is the eighth direct report. The officials of the Censorate can write to Tianting directly without being restricted by any official. This article seems inconspicuous, but it has great significance. We often see in film and television dramas that a certain official sues a certain minister and is deducted. Once there is the power to write to the emperor directly, no one can deduct the complaints in the middle, which avoids the possibility of possible shelter from the upper-level officials.

So if the censor of the Censorate reported the matter, there would be no trivial matters, which is why Li Shimin frowned.
Chapter completed!
