As the saying goes, the Eastern Han Dynasty was divided into three countries. 400 years later, the fate of the Han Dynasty was in the hands of the last emperor Liu Hongzhi, who was already a spent force. However, the thoughtful Emperor Wudi advocated democracy politically: First, the three powers of government were separated, and eunuchs, consorts and themselves were in power together; Second, the arrangement of officials is a market economy. As long as there is a starting price, cats and dogs can be mixed into the establishment of national civil servants, and official positions are publicly sold through bidding.
Loyal people in the world complained when Tian Zi acted so rashly. After hundreds of years, watching the building collapse like this, there are still some people with lofty ideals who are unwilling to turn things around. For example, the well-known Cao Cao is one of them. When Cao Cao was young, he became the director of Beicheng Branch of Beijing Public Security Bureau because of his father's personal relationship with Cao Song. When the new official took office, the youthful Cao Cao wanted to do something practical for the people. Of course, Cao Cao is a wise man, and anti-corruption involves the interests of the national superstructure, which is unsustainable, but we can try to fight corruption. To this end, Cao Cao rebuilt the administrative office within his jurisdiction, repaired the city gate, and made five-color stick fights on both sides of the city gate. There is a friendly notice posted at the door: no matter the strongmen, gentry or government officials, they will all be clubbed to death if they break the law here.
However, Beijing is the home of dignitaries. A brick is broken, I'm afraid it can hit three places. Soon, Cao Cao's black career met with resistance: Jian Shuo's uncle, the red man around the emperor and his life secretary committed crimes. This uncle Jane always bullies people in various ways, and occasionally collects some protection money or something. One day, I happened to be drunk in a bar, driving a BMW on the rampage in the city, breaking into Cao Cao's jurisdiction and being detained. Seeing someone so ungrateful, Uncle Jian quickly shouted to Cao Cao: Who dares to stop me? My grandson is a eunuch! Hearing this, Cao Cao immediately became furious. My grandfather is also a eunuch. Didn't you screw up your generation and use me? So he didn't say hello to the top leader. At his command, the five-color stick was lifted, and the mighty uncle Jian died at once.
Why does the fledgling Cao Cao have such an iron fist style? I'm afraid I have to mention one person here. His name is Wang Ji. Before Cao Cao became an official, he lived in Qiao County, Guo Pei. At that time, Ji Wang was in charge of Guo Pei. According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao committed a crime here as a teenager, but escaped after being punished in the summer. What big crime can a teenager commit? Probably playing some practical joke. But in Wang Ji's view, these behaviors should be labeled as underworld. Once our Comrade JI Wang is involved in triad activities, he will resolutely enforce the law.
Of course, we need to know Ji Wang's resume first. This Wang Ji was originally a scholar who knew a little stereotyped writing and wanted to be a big official. But at that time, officials basically prepared exchange drinks for the emperor. So Ji Wang is always in short supply. Later, when people mentioned something, they brought some gifts and knocked on the door of the eunuch palace. As soon as she entered the door, Wang Ji knelt down and called for adoptive father. The adopted son fell from the sky, but Lavery accepted it optimistically. With this relationship, Ji Wang's career changed immediately. He parachuted directly to Guo Pei and became a deputy ministerial-level local official. After all, it is not a glorious thing to rely on eunuchs to be superior, especially for those literati who think highly of themselves. Therefore, Ji Wang, who took office, is determined to make some big moves. With the support of Platini Laveli, Ji Wang quickly squeezed through the crowd under its jurisdiction and set off a power outage storm. Seeing that the local strongmen who usually dominate the city have fallen, the people clapped their hands and cheered. At that time, Ji Wang became a hero against blacks, and Ji Wang's songs were spontaneously sung in the street.
However, the happiness of ordinary people did not last long. When we heroes who fight crime and eliminate evil saw that the first fire of the new official was so beautifully burned, we suddenly became arrogant and thought we were the saviors of the people. Then, a bolder idea appeared in his mind: the national rectification movement. Actually, the idea at that time was very creative. At the end of the Han Dynasty, the Chaogang was corrupt, people were distracted, thieves were rampant, and the world declined. It is not a good thing to carry out the rectification movement and sing red songs to raise people's awareness. Unfortunately, what JI Wang did was really shocking: Comrade JI Wang made a new judicial interpretation of all cases under his jurisdiction, and severely cracked down on all kinds of criminals. For example, those who are extravagant and wasteful, even those who lived decades ago, should be put in prison. Those who are not filial to their parents or parents abandon their children should be buried alive once verified. In short, regardless of the size of the crime, as long as it is committed, men, women and children will be sentenced to heavy sentences.
The black war turned into a black war, and Ji Wang's high-profile rectification naturally attracted criticism. However, for the people in this region, this is only the beginning. In order to show his achievements in cracking down on criminals, Comrade JI Wang always took away several prisoners who were tortured to death. If the prisoner is not strong enough to die, he will dismember Ji Wang, then put the body in the car and put it in the friendship exhibition in the city center. If in summer, the weather is hot and the body rots, he will let his men pick out the bones and string them up and hang them on the beam of the yamen. According to incomplete statistics, during Ji Wang's five years in power, more than 10,000 people were killed before and after, when the total population of the jurisdiction was only 250,000.
From this point of view, Cao Cao, the earliest politician, became a new star in officialdom, which is closely related to Wang Ji's words and deeds. Cao Cao's later ruling behavior still bears the shadow of Wang Ji. But as an enlightenment teacher, Comrade Wang Ji's living conditions are far less fortunate than Cao Cao's. He was brutally beaten, which aroused the dissatisfaction of the grassroots and superior leaders. With the collapse of his supporter Lavery, he finally became an abandoned prisoner.
