顾佐是明代鼎盛时期仁宗、宣宗两朝的名臣,他多年执掌司法监察机关——都察院,为人刚正廉洁。面对永乐末年以来官场腐败的局面,他坚持不懈地对都察院属下的御史系统进行整肃,进而澄清其时官僚系统,使吏治为之一新。他的改革活动使宣德朝的都察院充分发挥职能,有效地抑制了官场贪污腐败现象,顾佐本人则为封建社会晚期盛世“仁宣之治”局面的出现做出了重大贡献。 Gu Zuo was a famous minister during the heyday of Renzong and Xuanzong in the heyday of the Ming Dynasty. He has been in charge of the judicial supervision organ for many years, both of which are just and honest. In the face of the corrupt state of officialdom in the last years of Yongle, he persevered in purging the censor system under the Duc Su Court and clarifying the bureaucratic system in his time to make official administration a new one. His reform activities gave full play to the functions of the government office in Xuande Dynasty and effectively suppressed corruption in the officialdom. Gu Zuo himself made a significant contribution to the later prosperity of the feudal society and the emergence of the “policy of benevolent declaration.”
