The old and new parties were not very clean on the land issue, and a month's buffer period gave them a common opportunity. Even so, the hidden fields of the wealthy families in Hebei were also an important topic for them to fight against the old party. Therefore, when the Hebei people measured all the land, although there was more than a month for the wealthy families here to bleach their own fields, some people were busy with the procedures during the period and some were lucky. As a result, the promotion officers composed of officials from the new party indeed found a large number of hidden fields here.

According to the regulations of the Fangtianjun Tax Law, once hidden fields are found, these fields must be confiscated and certain taxes must be paid. Local tyrants themselves are unwilling to suffer this loss. This contradiction must be directly reflected in the formation of a new and old party confrontation in the court. At this time, the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty and the Imperial City Department intervened as judges. Because the two were directly responsible to the emperor, the privileges they had were extremely high and were not afforded by ordinary people. The intervention of this powerful agency made the voice of disputes between the two factions immediately smaller, and the final letter formed by the emperor himself will be judged by the emperor himself, which put all the problems outside. Faced with the attacks of the new party, the old party naturally refused to surrender. Wang Yanei and other new party officials had not wiped their butts on Jiangnan West Road, and they also had time to re-record the old accounts.

At this time, Wang Jinghui, in addition to handing over the affairs of the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau to Deli, was unwilling to get involved in the political whirlpool caused by the Fang Tianjun Tax Law. The current officials in the Song Dynasty are much better in terms of ethics than ten years ago. However, it is undeniable that corrupt officials are everywhere. Even in the era of political clarity, there will always be corrupt officials, not to mention that in this era of incomplete regulatory system, most of the ethics of officials depend on personal self-discipline.

"Political struggle is not good for the court, but it depends on when it is placed, whether the intensity of the confrontation between the two sides of the political struggle endangers the stability of the court. It is just a delusion to eliminate political struggle. Instead of suppressing it, it is better to find a channel to evacuate, and while relocation, clean up officials who do not adhere to self-discipline and morality!" Wang Jinghui thought secretly.

Wang Jinghui's integrity storm caused by Fang Tianjun's tax law directly caused a large number of corrupt officials to be dismissed, although the old and new parties were unwilling to see such a thing happen. However, the evidence presented by the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty made political leaders such as Sima Guang and Wang Anshi have the idea that these people should be killed, while Emperor Zhao Xu of the Song Dynasty was furious.

The reform of official positions in the Song Dynasty only generally completed the framework changes. This time, a large number of officials were investigated and punished by the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau because they could not explain their economic problems. A large number of officials were dismissed one after another. Emperor Zhao Xu and others seemed to have made great determination to severely punish corrupt officials, so a large number of idle officials in Biandu rushed to various places to fill the vacancy. This temporarily alleviated the embarrassment of "unemployed officials" in the Song Dynasty. The policy of Emperor Taizu of the Song Dynasty to preferential scholars was far higher than that of previous dynasties. However, the ruling territory of the Song Dynasty was far smaller than that of previous dynasties, so the number of idle officials was much more serious than that of other dynasties.

If the scholars admitted to the imperial examination every year, even if they pass the imperial examination, they will be idle in Kaifeng, Biandu, get a name for a scattered official, and take the salary given by the court every month. This situation has been going on for decades. Although the policy of Emperor Taizu Taizong was to buy the hearts of scholars from all over the world and help the Zhao Song Dynasty stabilize their politics, it had very good results at the beginning. In just a hundred years, the direct disadvantage caused by such a high imperial examination pass rate is that the number of "unemployed officials" has increased greatly. This has caused great contradictions.

The salary received by these "unemployed officials" cannot be considered small, but in Kaifeng, the capital of Bian, where prices are high, it is obviously not enough to maintain their living place - this is not only a matter of food, drink, defecation, or slaughter. In order to find the actual lack of the court, unemployed officials will inevitably welcome and send them to their posts in order to please the powerful officials in the court, and be allowed to take office when there is a real lack of money. This fee is enough to make some "unemployed officials" who do not have strong financial support afraid.

Originally, in the past decade, the Song Dynasty established many related institutions such as the Maritime Bureau and other institutions, through the development of overseas trade, and through the war against the Western Xia and Liao Kingdoms and the establishment of circuit courts, a large number of idle officials were allowed to take office. These have effectively alleviated the number of idle officials in the Song Dynasty. However, compared with the imperial examinations every three years, at least more than a thousand Jinshis have been caused in recent years. In addition to the court's favor and cute measures, the number of idle officials has not decreased much, and the increase rate is extremely terrifying.

The evidence of crimes of officials from all over the country collected by the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty has given the high-level ruling of the Song Dynasty a clear understanding of the character and ethics of grassroots officials of the Song Dynasty. Although these were implemented by the Fang Tianjun Tax Law, and the old and new parties exposed each other's shortcomings and exposed each other, in terms of the origin of the foul official, many people from the old and new parties were brought in. At this time, no one would think of cleaning themselves. This situation has instead caused both the old and new parties to restore some rationality and stopped attacking the other officials at the same time. Unfortunately, the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty has now intervened in the implementation of the Statistics Law of the Fang Tianjun Tax Law. Some illegal incidents of some officials were exposed early with the progress of the land measurement and cleaning work. Wang Anshi's relatives were also involved, but in order to worry about Wang Anshi's personal prestige, these were suppressed by Wang Jinghui.

At this time, the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty was more like the Independent Commission Against Corruption in later generations. The evidence collected was sent directly to the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice. Of course, some high-level officials were directly submitted to the emperor for review. The punishment measures such as dismissal of these officials were judged by the Dali Temple or the Ministry of Justice according to the laws of the Song Dynasty. If some influential officials were naturally punished under the attention of Emperor Zhao Xu. However, before these, the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty would completely liquidate the amount of property embezzled by officials over the years and then divest their property. This is put to the first place to deal with officials. Even if Emperor Zhao Xu intends to protect this official, at least before spitting out his greedy property, the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty would not give up.

The officials of the Song Dynasty were quite concerned about this. Statistics and avoidance was like a beast hiding in the dark. Usually, they could not see it. However, once they were bitten by it, it really made those corrupt officials feel that life was worse than death. The Song Dynasty Statistics and Statistics only had the power to investigate the case, but they could first take over the property management power of the person under investigation based on the facts. This would not happen if the head was lost. However, watching his property was evacuated by the people in the Song Dynasty Statistics and Statistics and Statistics, it was even more uncomfortable than killing them. The most damn "involvement" policy was that made corrupt officials unable to transfer their greedy property. Once they found that the property of corrupt officials could not be repaid, they would confiscate their property from their relatives according to their blood relationship to repay the greedy property. This trick made corrupt officials curse the policy.

In order to cooperate with the anti-corruption action, the three major newspapers of the Song Dynasty have set up special anti-corruption columns to report on the news of corrupt officials being investigated and punished in various places, which has greatly helped the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau in public opinion. Although Wang Jinghui and the other country, the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau are facing great pressure, Wang Jinghui was determined to take this opportunity to rectify the Song Dynasty's administration. After all, there are not many such opportunities, especially when the new and old parties are unclear, they will face much less resistance, and the source of corrupt officials is more convenient. This is completely under the guise of political struggle to clean up the clean government. It will be difficult to find such opportunities in the future.

This anti-corruption campaign also made Wang Jinghui realize that the clean government is not so easy to be a clean government. The primary factor is not to have a righteous heart. More importantly, there is a strong enough backstage boss. Wang Jinghui has the necessary factor to be a clean government, so he has achieved very outstanding results in the construction of clean government. Who can threaten Wang Jinghui in the Song Dynasty? With the favor he has received now, as long as it is not too much, Emperor Zhao Xu is very indulging in him. Moreover, the evidence provided by Wang Jinghui is as iron as a mountain, which makes people unable to argue.

Refutation also reflects the strong intelligence collection capabilities of the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty and the Imperial City Department from one aspect. In front of the fragile intelligence collection agencies of various countries in this era, the intelligence agencies of the Song Dynasty were extremely strong, and no one in the Song Dynasty was their opponents. In this way, the advantage was converted to the rectification of the state and the officials, and the effect was very obvious. The officials investigated and punished did not even know that they had been exposed, and the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty took over the power of using their property by an order from the Statistics Bureau of the Song Dynasty, which made them have no chance to commit fraud.

As both the old and new parties took the destructive power of the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau on the issue of the Fangtian equal tax law and slowly subsided, Wang Jinghui also reduced the efforts of the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau to investigate and punish corrupt officials a lot. Although he was a little helpless, the political game rules of this era were like this. It was possible to have such an opportunity to eliminate a large number of corrupt officials and make the senior ruling of the Song Dynasty realize what the administration of the lower-level officials of the Song Dynasty was like. This goal was achieved. As for the future, we have to wait for the opportunity to slowly build a trustworthy integrity supervision system.

Whether he wants to or not, the trouble caused by Fang Tianjun Tax Law is too great, and Wang Anshi and Sima Guang are also very opposed. Although Wang Anshi is unwilling to retreat, the situation at this time forces him to think about taking a step back to ease the current very tense political atmosphere. However, Wang Jinghui doesn't think so. He doesn't want to directly abolish Fang Tianjun Tax Law. After all, the arable agricultural land area data of a country is a very important indicator, and it will be beneficial to the future development plan of the Song Dynasty. However, these all take time, and he took the initiative to suggest Wang

Anshi extended the implementation of Fang Tianjun Tax Law for another five years, and Wang Anshi did not say much about this - to be honest, Wang Anshi himself was not sure whether he could guarantee whether he was still in the prime minister when Fang Tianjun Tax Law was fully committed in fifteen years. After all, it was not easy for the Song Dynasty to be prime minister for more than ten years. He had been prime minister for five or six years. It is expected that this time will not be too long in the future. Even if the emperor attaches great importance to him, his own physical condition may not be able to last for such a long time.

The Fang Tianjun Tax Law can be said to be the first bill in the history of the Song Dynasty that the ruling ruler has formulated to implement the plan that lasts longer than the scope of his own rule. Basically no one will do such things that seek the interests of future generations. After all, no one knows whether his successor can retain his ex's policy policy after leaving his current position to continue to implement the bill. This possibility is too small. What Wang Anshi did not expect at this time was that Wang Jinghui, who had opposed his implementation of the Fang Tianjun Tax Law in the past few months, had a firm determination to carry out this bill to the end. After all, from the future generations in a thousand years later, Wang Jinghui was very sensitive to some numbers. He was more accustomed to precise numbers, just like he tried every means to re-formulate the new weight and measure system.

Through this Fang Tianjun Tax Law incident, Wang Jinghui's biggest gain was that the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau enjoyed priority control over the property of corrupt officials in the process of investigating the case of integrity, and also determined continuous control. In this way, the living space of corrupt officials will be greatly compressed. Once the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau is targeted by them and they collect evidence of their corruption. The direct consequence is that they lose their own property control.

Corrupt officials love money the most. Wang Jinghui punishes corrupt officials to lose money and property, which is undoubtedly the most heartbreaking for corrupt officials. And according to the regulations, the Bureau of Statistics has the right to withdraw property from their relatives based on their blood relationship to make up for their own deficits, which eliminates the idea of ​​corrupt officials wanting to transfer their property. Although such a bill of consolidation is unreasonable to Wang Jinghui. However, in this era, there are more unreasonable bills than this - killing the nine clans. In comparison, the Bureau of Consolidation in the Song Dynasty is nothing.

Through this anti-corruption storm, Wang Jinghui also successively offered suggestions to the court, intending to use his influence and the problems exposed by this anti-corruption storm to build the Song Dynasty's anti-corruption supervision system. After all, in his opinion, if a strong organization such as the Song Dynasty Statistics Bureau did not lead it, the consequences would be unpredictable. Instead of establishing an indestructible monster, it would be better to establish a whole set of small systems to replace such a strong organization - if a strong state machine like a national intelligence agency is entrusted to inhumane, it would have a great impact on the stability of the country. For example, the Jinyiwei and the East and West Factory in later generations, it can be seen that the subversion of the North Korea has a great relationship with the fact that these powerful intelligence agencies are in the hands of some ambitious people.

The Song Dynasty was already very developed, and Wang Jinghui's means of continuously stimulating economic development over the past decade have been implemented very smoothly. The economic situation of the Song Dynasty has now developed to a new level. While the economy is developing rapidly, it has also shifted the attention of corrupt officials. In the past, corrupt officials paid more attention to farmland, and the harm caused is often to further deteriorate land annexation, but now corrupt officials have focused on industry and commerce, from simply extorting money or even using means such as equity participation to make profits for themselves by controlling business names.

Wang Jinghui also took advantage of the Fang Tianjun Tax Law incident to investigate and punish corrupt officials and found out that the corrupt officials had a new position. Faced with such changes, he himself was a little amused and silenced. It seems that corrupt officials from all over the ages have learned their own knowledge. Today's corrupt officials and later corrupt officials are really not afraid of giving in. If it weren't for the dominant power of the Song Dynasty in this era, the saying that there was no escape from their own country to seek refuge in other countries, perhaps it would have been a drama commonly used by corrupt officials in later generations such as the escape from the Liao Kingdom.

It is also to clean up these social borers. Wang Jinghui wrote a letter and obtained permission to establish the Song Dynasty Economic Crime Investigation Bureau, which was specifically responsible for investigating corruption or other criminal acts by officials in the economic field. Although this institution is relatively simple, it has always been a prototype. At this time, the tricks of officials committing crimes in the economic field are far from being as colorful as those in the future. With this institution, we can keep pace with the times and explore to prevent officials from committing crimes in the economic field, and accumulate experience to pave the way for the future.

Corruption and abuse of power by officials is one of the most important reasons for the replacement of dynasties in ancient China. If it weren’t forcing the people to rebel, it would be hard to imagine that the people would not be able to rebel and overthrow the old dynasty. This is all because they cannot survive. Wang Jinghui also understood that corruption among officials is impossible to eradicate. Anti-corruption and corruption also have an ancient history. He only hopes to hang a rope on the heads of officials to show warnings. In addition, there is a check and balance between anti-corruption and corruption, so that the difference is not too far. There is a check and balance in everything, not to be perfect, but to balance and stability between all parties. Only in this way can the Song Dynasty develop rapidly to cope with future challenges.

Although the collapse of the Liao Kingdom could not cause any harm to the Song Dynasty, the general trend of this environment is like this. The increasingly deteriorating living environment in the north will inevitably lead to the nomadic tribes living on the grasslands in this era to find ways to invade south in order to continue to develop. The Khitans fell.
