Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 122: Crossover
The next morning.
"Wow! Mrs. Xu, why did you go last night? Why are you so haggard."
Zhang Fei was terrified by Xu Zhiqian's two panda eyes.
Xu Zhiqian glared at him resentfully: "It's not because of you."
Zhang Fei reacted immediately and laughed.
Xu Zhiqian stomped her feet lightly: "Are you still embarrassed to laugh?"
"Don't laugh! Don't laugh!"
Zhang Fei said again: "But I can't say it! You know the truth."
Xu Zhiqian said: "But you have been talking all day, can't you say a word?"
Curiosity killed the cat.
An ear pen chatted with the emperor all day, what can this talk about!
The key point is that Zhang Fei has not yet become an official.
It's outrageous!
Xu Zhiqian tossed and turned last night, unable to figure out what they were talking about.
Very frustrating.
Zhang Fei pondered for a while, hooked his hands, Xu Zhiqian hastily listened to him, not caring whether a man or a woman would kiss or not.
Zhang Fei said in a low voice: "To put it simply, I made up a very complicated reason and refused the official's invitation."
Xu Zhiqian wondered, "Why did you refuse?"
Zhang Fei shrugged and said, "Because I really enjoy being a commoner and defeating officials. Don't you think this is very cool?"
Xu Zhiqian was stunned: "But this is not a long-term solution, you can't afford to lose, and you can't win every time."
Zhang Fei said in a low voice: "It's different now, I have officials as my backing, and now I'm ordered to file a lawsuit. It's the gods who block and kill gods, and the Buddhas block and kill Buddhas."
"I was ordered to go to court, really?"
Xu Zhiqian said excitedly.
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "This time, you can avenge those ordinary people as much as you want."
Xu Zhiqian asked again: "But you rejected the official, why did the official support you?"
This woman is really hard to deal with! Zhang Fei said depressedly: "Hey! Xu Zhiqian, you are going too far, asking one after another, you just need to know the result!"
Xu Zhiqian said: "Okay! I won't ask any more."
"Let's go! I still have a lot to do today."
The two came to the Fan family bookstore in a carriage.
As soon as I got to the door, I heard the commotion of people inside. I took a peek, but saw that the bookstore was full of people.
"Li Si, go through the back door and go directly to Fan Li's house."
"Yes."
......
"Sanlang, Mrs. Xu, please drink tea."
I saw a young woman who still had charm, offering two cups of tea to Zhang Fei and Xu Zhiqian.
It is Fan Li's wife, Mrs. Liu.
"Thank you ma'am."
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded.
Before drinking the tea, Fan Li rushed in, "Where is Saburo?"
"Here it is."
Zhang Fei was afraid that Fan Li, who was all in front of him, would not see him, so he raised his hand.
"Hey! Saburo, you are here."
Fan Li rushed forward, tugging at Zhang Fei's sleeve, with tears and snot in his nose.
Zhang Fei said: "I heard that Yuan Wai is ill, but I see that Yuan Wai is walking like flying, it doesn't look like he is ill!"
"Then...that's not all because of you."
Fan Li thoughtfully said: "I have been a tea eater for so many years, but I have never thought of suing the court in the past, never...never."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Okay! I won't say much about this matter, it's all over."
"It's not over yet"
Fan Li immediately said: "Go to the bookstore and have a look, my shop is almost overwhelmed by them."
Xu Zhiqian asked suddenly: "They should also come for the Yaqian service?"
Fan Li nodded straightly and said: "Yes, but not all. Some people have suffered from Yaqian service, so I hope that Sanlang can avenge them. There are also some people who are going to serve soon, and I also hope that Sanlang can help .”
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something, "There are still many people who came to inquire about tax calculation."
There have been rumors that the bookstore will launch a tax calculation business, but most people are not optimistic about it.
But after this incident, everyone felt that it might be possible, so they came to ask the price. If the price was right, they hoped to bet on both sides.
The one who should be bribed should still be bribed. If something happens, you can also use a lawsuit to seek justice for yourself.
Zhang Fei said: "Go and tell them that the imperial court has not ruled that the servant law violates the law of the ancestors. If they really have grievances, we can accept them, but if they don't, there is nothing we can do."
Fan Li nodded straightly and said: "That's what I told them, this kind of lawsuit is enough to fight once, how can we fight every day."
Zhang Fei smiled and nodded, "I'm here today to calculate taxes, how are you preparing?"
"What are you preparing for?" Fan Li asked in astonishment.
"Man!"
Zhang Fei said: "Didn't I tell you to dig people? Don't tell me, you didn't go?"
Fan Li blinked, and suddenly heyed, "Sanlang, I'm so scared by you that I can't get out of bed, how can I go!"
Zhang Fei rolled his eyes, "Member, your mental quality is not good. If you follow me, you have to be more courageous. You are afraid of this and that. Don't make money. People are scared to death. Although this kind of lawsuit is not You may fight every day, but you will definitely encounter them in the future.”
Fan Li also felt wronged, "You didn't tell me beforehand, I don't know anything, how can I not be afraid?"
Zhang Fei was stunned, and smiled apologetically: "That's true. I didn't discuss it with you beforehand. It was indeed my fault. However, we have just cooperated, and some misunderstandings are inevitable. If you explain clearly, it will be fine.
However, you have to hurry up when it comes to recruiting people. Now that our bookstore is gaining momentum, I will launch tax-calculated sales immediately. "
"Hey! I know that."
Fan Li nodded, suddenly remembered something, and said: "Recently, Li Guozhong and the others have close contacts with the officials of the Third Division, and I heard that they seem to be pushing for this tax calculation business."
Xu Zhiqian frowned and said: "Zhang San, you have to be careful about this matter. If the third division issues a decree that only recognizes their tax calculations, then... then this matter will be difficult to do."
Zhang Fei frowned, "If everyone relies on their own abilities, I will lose even if I have nothing to say, but if they want to play crooked ways, they can only see each other in court, and we can't always hold them The Kaifeng government is bullying!"
Fan Li was so frightened that he almost knelt down.
When did Kaifeng Mansion become the target of bullying?
This.......
Having said that, Zhang Fei is still very cautious. He also knows that the time is fleeting and he must solve it quickly.
The first problem is internal rectification.
The mission he arranged years ago was just to get to know these ear pens.
It was supposed to start after the new year, but because of this case, it has been delayed until now.
He immediately ordered to temporarily close the business, and then began to rectify the interior.
First of all, of course, is to hand in the winter vacation homework.
That is, the contract about mortgage cooperation.
Those people with ear pens have completed their homework a long time ago, and they even forgot to eat and sleep to revise it recently.
Originally, they were all planning to resign and run away. Seeing that the third brother actually sought justice for the historian, the reputation of the Fan family bookstore has greatly increased. For them, the current business is to rack their brains to refuse, not to solicit Business.
This golden rice bowl must be well protected!
Zhang Fei dumped all of them to Xu Zhiqian, he didn't bother to read them all. In his eyes, the current pleadings are all rubbish, and he is still in charge of the administrative structure.
The first step, of course, is specialization.
You must be professional from the beginning of clothing, don't dress like a casual guy, no matter what you have to give people confidence.
But you are not allowed to dress as coquettishly as him, after all, it needs to be supported by your appearance, so don't be imitative.
Then there is planning the department according to the law.
Mainly divided into criminal and civil.
The two categories are further subdivided.
Criminal is divided into **** and robbery; there are more civil cases, property disputes, contract disputes...
At the same time, it needs to be teamed. Zhang Fei also plans to set up a file department, an accounting department, and an intelligence department.
These are all for the ear pen.
Fan Li was dumbfounded.
How many people do you need to recruit?
Are you sure you can make so much money in a lawsuit?
Before he had time to ask, Zhang Fei asked him to find another place to live. The backyard was requisitioned by the bookstore.
This is simply the physical version of the dove occupying the magpie's nest!
......
At the same time, Zhao Xu was also making final preparations.
Although the lawsuit in Dali Temple did not come to a result, it was just let it go, but that was only for Zhang Fei, and for Wang Anshi, the result had already come out.
Even shouting slogans, everyone knows in their hearts that reform is imminent.
Zhao Xu did not disappoint them either.
The first step must be personnel arrangements.
Zhao Xu first called Fu Bi, an old official, into the court, and appointed him as worship Zuo Pushe, door servant, and Tongping Zhangshi.
But the one who is really in power at the moment is Shen Zhizhengshi.
Fu Bi also knew in his heart that he just came back to be a signboard.
Before, Zhao Xu planned to worship him as Sikong and servant, ranking among the three princes, but Fu Bi knew that these were all prime ministers in name only. The key point was that he didn't support Wang Anshi, so he didn't want to come back. Declined, Zhao Xu sent another person to worship Zuo Pushe instead.
There is really no way, he just came back.
Wang Anshi was also promoted to be a political adviser, and Sima Guang was promoted to be a political adviser and lead the trial of the Criminal Court.
Let Lu Hui go to Dengzhou, and at the same time appoint Lu Guo Gong Wen Yanbo as the censor Zhongcheng and lead the censor platform.
......
"Hi Sima Junshi."
After coming out of the palace, Wen Yanbo immediately grabbed Sima Guang, "You know how to hide behind and let us charge forward, it is really unreasonable."
This was really a shock to Wen Yanbo.
There was no warning before.
He thought that he, like Fu Bi, had an honorary title to support the emperor.
I never thought about it, but I gave it a real job, and it is such a critical department.
Wen Yanbo ran to ask Lu Hui what was going on?
Lu Hui told the truth that he recommended Sima Guang, and it was Sima Guang who recommended you.
You don't need to think about it, once Wang Anshi starts to reform, the conservatives will definitely use Yushitai to fight back.
Wen Yanbo must be on the front line.
That's okay.
He is not a shy person either.
The key point is that Sima Guang went to the trial court by himself. That place has nothing to do with the political reform. Wen Yanbo was really angry.
You're such a villain.
Sima Guang smiled and said, "Could it be that in the eyes of Duke Wen, I, Sima Guang, are such a shameless villain?"
"If I really thought so, then I wouldn't have agreed to the officials before." Wen Yanbo said again: "But you have to explain clearly, what's going on?"
Sima Guang pulled him aside, "I did this in the hope of avoiding the recurrence of party disputes during the Qingli period."
Wen Yanbo was taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "How do you say that?"
Although he did not personally participate in the Qingli party struggle, he has a good relationship with Fu Bi and the others, and he is very aware of the darkness inside.
It's really scary.
This is also one of the reasons why he opposes the reform.
Sima Guangdao: "As long as Wang Jiefu initiates the reform, no matter what the new law is, the court will definitely fight. This is something we cannot stop."
Wen Yanbo nodded slightly.
Although Sima Guang has become the head of the conservatives, the reason why he can become the head is not because he is handsome, but because the throttling policy they proposed is more in line with the values of the conservatives.
If he supported Wang Anshi, he would not be able to be the leader.
Sima Guang said again: "Although we can't stop the struggle, we can find ways to regulate the way they fight and avoid party disputes."
Wen Yanbo asked: "The way of struggle?"
Can this be standardized?
During the celebration of the calendar, they really did everything they could!
The more you play, the more you have no lower limit, which makes Fan Zhongyan, Fu Bi and others feel disheartened and run away.
Only Han Qi carried the banner and continued to fight against them.
Although he didn't win in the end, Han Qi's prestige rose greatly because of this, and he won the respect of everyone, including the emperor.
Han Qi's position today is due to his hard work.
Sima Guang said: "Let's go to court. Settle it in court."
After Wen Yanbo heard this, he was completely dumbfounded, "I said, Junshi, you are a fool, can you sue this matter?"
Sima Guang said: "It was not possible before, but now it is possible. Zhang San can sue the imperial court with the law of his ancestors, so can he not sue the new law?"
About that lawsuit, on the surface, Wang Anshi won a complete victory, but if there is no benefit, how can Sima Guang support Zhang Fei.
Wang Anshi wins in the present, while Sima Guang wins in the future. At that time, Wang Anshi will be on the defensive side, while Sima Guang will be on the offensive side.
Wen Yanbo frowned, "Yes! This is really a solution. Oh... I understand, no wonder you asked to be judged by the Criminal Court and let me lead the Yushitai. The officials of the Ministry of Criminal Justice are against the new law. So, except Dali Temple, the rest of the judiciary does not belong to Wang Jiefu.”
Sima Guang said: "I also have a way to win Dali Temple over. Sigh... In fact, compared with the new law, party struggle is more terrifying!"
Wen Yanbo nodded, "This is also my worry, well, I promise to support you."
If this is the way to play, then the Judicial Court is the core department, not the Yushitai. Sima Guang is actually on the front line, and the Yushitai is just cooperating.
"Thank you, Mr. Wen, for your help." Sima Guang bowed his hands.
Wen Yanbo said again: "That's right! You were in charge of the Criminal Court, but Wang Jiefu was only promoted to be a political adviser. There must be a mystery in this."
Sima Guang asked: "What does Duke Wen think?"
Wen Yanbo stroked his beard, "There is a way to rule the country first, and it is impossible for Wang Jiefu to ignore this point. Now it seems that he first wants to reform the labor law, and this is not the official administration, so I guess Therefore, he is very likely to suggest that the government set up another department to preside over the reform, so that it can temporarily bypass the administration of officials.”
Sima Guang nodded and said: "What Wen Gong said is very true. This is also like Wang Jiefu's radical style. However, Wen Gong is not too radical like Lu Xianke. Let's take a look. Wang Jiefu is full of confidence this time. , I don’t think it will necessarily fail.”
Wen Yanbo shook his head and sighed: "If you want to change the law, haste makes waste. His method is to treat the symptoms but not the root cause, so it is difficult to succeed!"
