On September 9th of the year of Hongyao, an official document full of criminal evidence was spread throughout the country, and even people in remote villages could get news from their acquaintances in the village. Thin paper vibrates with numbers written all over it.

Zaizhong Hongkuo, Tianguan. . .They embezzled a total of 300 million shi in civil taxes.Just the first sentence is enough to make everyone full of righteous indignation.How many people may not be able to eat so much food in a lifetime, even if the people in a village or an entire town add up, the food that may not be consumed within three years is only the first crime.

All the common people, scholars, officials, etc. who reported their dissatisfaction with the conscientious Zaizhong just after he came to the throne, became speechless when they saw this criminal evidence.What's more, many of them were seen with their own eyes. The food was carried out from the sinner's mansion, and it took ten days to move the food. The onlookers were surprised where they hid these things!

Cellars, secret rooms, secret warehouses, there are all kinds of speculation. This is the hottest topic in Qiaoguo. It didn't take long for even the stories of these corrupt officials to start to appear on the street.In contrast, everyone's admiration for King Gong was unprecedentedly high, especially for the people who had received food, and King Gong had the grace of life for them.The reputation of being able to discern the details spread from the Qiao Kingdom, and quickly spread throughout the Twelve Kingdoms of the Changshi through the dramas that played the protagonists of justice in their respective story books.

Hong Kuo and others have been operating in the court for a long time, and the blind worship of the ignorant people has not changed the empty Qiaoguo court. If the officials are not elected, their positions will be unstable every day. It is a pity that even if they want to do it now What, there is no way.

Because they can no longer slander King Gong's reputation, and now even the officials who have been ranked in the courts of other countries are returning to Qiao Country in batches. Now King Gong, in the eyes of outsiders, is enough to match the gentry The king, the king worthy of their bow.Not to mention, those people.

On October 10th of the first year of Hongyao, after Qiaoguo, that is, Zaizhong, appointed newcomers, the six officials of heaven, earth, spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the high-ranking officials such as Da Sima and Wang Shiwei, can be said to be able to eliminate the emperor. In addition to the above, the top power group capable of leading Qiaoguo and controlling the future of Qiaoguo underwent a one-time major shakeup.

All official positions are filled with newcomers. Among the officials left behind from the previous court, the highest position is only a Sima. The shrunken Dachaohui filled all the vacancies almost overnight, and the standing was full.This country seems to be really glowing with a unique vitality, like a newcomer standing under the throne, full of blood and energy.

Compared with the reorganization of the power center that was almost pushed to reconstruction, there is another thing that attracts more attention in Qiaoguo besides the big news of the appointment of officials.The capital state where the Cuihuang Palace of the Qiaoguo Imperial Palace is located, began to build a magnificent palace on the day King Gong ascended the throne, and on October 10, the first day when the gate was unveiled and announced to open, it became famous all over the world.And this palace has a very familiar name on the other side of the sea, but the common people have never heard of the name 'National News Agency'.

The news agency has a main hall, two side halls, and the largest area, and currently there are only various historical databases with vacant bookshelves.In the main hall and side hall, there are various bookshelves standing upright. Compared with the empty side hall and database, the bookshelves in the main hall are already filled with various books, which can be read by anyone.At the gate of each side hall, there are also [-] introduction and consultation personnel, all of whom are students of Taixue. Every day, students will take shifts here, one person for half a day, anyone can come here to inquire, even if they cannot read big characters old farmer.

And the reason why everyone pays so much attention to it is because of the scrolls that anyone can read and view in the main hall.The seal of each volume is not the name of the book, but a combination of place names, official positions, and personal names.Here is the information of all Qiaoguo's serving officials, including background, family, family members, where they work, how many years they have been in office, what they have done, what achievements they have made, the comments of the school exams every year, and who the superiors who took the exams are all. Write down one by one.

The main hall is famous for the scrolls that almost shocked all literati, but in fact, it is not this that should surprise people the most.It is the two side halls in the east and west that have not yet exerted their power and are vacant.

In the east hall, no matter who it is, they can submit their comments on any official in the main hall, from Zaizhong to the village chief.Even a three-year-old child, as long as he enters the side hall with scrolls and papers in his hand, someone will take over, without revealing his name or sending them out in person. Anyone can express their dissatisfaction with any official.The person who takes over will directly paste the text on the wall of the East Hall, and anyone can watch it.

The west hall is the opposite of the east hall. All the scrolls must be sent out in person, stamped with my seal, and pasted on the designated place by hand.Because the West Palace is used to refute and announce the results of the state's handling.Once someone in the East Hall posts an accusation against an official, the official must arrive at the West Hall to give an explanation within three months, otherwise the court will take action to resolve the accusation posted in the East Hall.

There is also a small door in this news agency, which opens on the right side of the East Hall. Inside this door, you can write whatever you want, gossip about the owner’s family, Li’s family, hearing that a certain official is slovenly or has a penchant for women and men, neighbors My child is always being beaten, and I can't solve it. If you want to ask for help, you can write it here.

Anyone can say what is written here, anyone can talk about it, the government will not interfere, everything is decided by the people independently, and there is no one to maintain it here, where they want to post, want to tear up the post, and it all depends on the people themselves hands on.Almost like a mutant gossip forum from the future.

The National News Agency is expected to build a scaled-down version in each township. If there are injustices in each village, there will be patrollers every six months. They will patrol the various places for 30 days. If they can be resolved within 30 days, they will be resolved locally The self-owned inspector who solved the problem took him to the court and confronted all the officials.

For the literati, the main function of the news agency was to blackmail them.However, for the people, this news agency is a place of survival, because it not only has so-called books, but also charcoal fire and food, so that they have an extra place to hide when they have nowhere to go.

The database over the years is not only used as a database, but also has a separate side hall and warehouse, which are places for people in need.There are still refugees living in the current Qiao Country, and people without status like Haike and Shanke are also part of the refugees.In the database, you can exchange your own knowledge, property, and labor for food and clothing to keep out the cold.

For refugees with status but no land, the patrol will lead the guards to escort them back to the place of origin, and settle down and allocate land and houses.For those who have no status, the students received by the main hall will ask them where they are going, and try to find a place for them to live in a reasonable way.Even if they don't want to go anywhere, people who have no place to stay can stay in the news agency to work as sweepers and helpers. Although they don't get paid, they don't have to worry about eating and drinking.

In Hongyao's vision, the main function of the news agency is not what the literati pay attention to. It is more of a convenient institution. The original plan was to let various companies post job recruitment information, but the people's sentiments are different, and most of them will not recruit people here, so it has become a gossip forum.

In Changshi, reading is not only about changing one's origin, but also allowing one to display one's full potential. The biggest and most desirable thing is that reading can even change one's race, soaring into the sky, and from then on, one is completely two species.Becoming a scholar is an existence that can truly protect the family for thousands of years. An official in the eternal life is far more enviable and coveted than the other side of the sea.

Because once you have an official position, you can be an official, and you can ascend to the position of an earth immortal. There will be.This is worse than any rich person, even a wealthy businessman who is incomparably rich.The position of taxi here is the real existence of reaching the sky in one step.

The eternal class system has also become extremely decadent and outdated because of the rule that official positions and immortal positions are equal. It has not changed for thousands of years.It can be seen from the kowtow ceremonies that are still in use so far. Once King Jing of the Kingdom of Qing Dynasty, Yoko Nakajima, the sea guest, dismissed the kneeling ceremony during the first pardon, which became a good story for a while, and class issues have become such an existence. .

And the lives of these officials in the main hall of the "News Agency" can also be regarded as the lives of immortals. It is an unprecedented existence.The person who received the kowtow knew clearly that the person in front of him might sue him at the 'News Agency' at any time.The person who kowtows does not need to lower himself into the dust, because although he is humble, he also holds a weapon in his hand.

Compared with the literati's discussions about this, the monarchs of various countries understand how great things King Gong has done. Even if someone might have thought of such things, no one is willing to spend so much effort, or no one It is really possible to collect these massive data and do this by checking for deficiencies and filling in gaps.

For Chang Shi, who communicates purely by copying, reciting, and word of mouth, this is an almost impossible project, and it appeared in the hands of this King Gong.Even for the written materials that were placed in the main hall at the beginning, how much time and energy it takes to write them out one by one is enough to make people wonder.

However, when the two kings who were attracted by the news agency to visit Qiaoguo read the information of the main hall, Jing Wang Yoko Nakajima asked the first-time King Gong with puzzled eyes, "Where did you get the typewriter?" ? The text is completely different, there is this input method over there? Besides, there is no electricity here, how did you do it?"

As a young girl who became King Jing after she went to high school in Japan, when she opened the book and saw the neat characters on it, she realized in a daze that this is not something copied, no one’s characters can be so neat, even the spacing Exactly, this is definitely a product of the machine society, for example, the typewriter.

God knows, Yoko Nakajima is not used to entering this place. Even if she is the king, she would worry about breaking her hand when reviewing the memorial. She also practiced calligraphy for a long time!
