Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 141: The wind is blowing


"Kuanfu, why did you stop me just now?"

Out of the Chuigong Hall, Tang Jie spoke to Wen Yan excitedly.

Wen Yanbo sighed: "If I could stop you, I wouldn't stop you. Your Majesty didn't declare Zhang San to win the lawsuit at that time, so it was already giving us face."

Tang Jie's old face was full of annoyance and embarrassment, "It's also my fault that I'm useless to wait, and I can't compete with a person who has a good ear."

Wen Yanbo comforted: "It's settled, it's okay, we can still rely on this edict to persuade the officials."

"Things should be prevented, music should be controlled", in the final analysis, it is still a pocket method, it depends on how you can argue.

Tang Jie sighed: "Then Wang Anshi will definitely make a big fuss about it."

The law of the ancestors was originally a great weapon to curb Wang Anshi's reform, but now it may provide support for Wang Anshi.

This is where that lawsuit hurts the most.

Everyone can use the pocket method.

Wen Yanbo smiled wryly: "There is no other way."

It is impossible not to pay the price for that lawsuit.

The person standing opposite is not a good man or a believer!

This is actually not surprising to them.

Although they expected that it was impossible for Zhao Xu to directly judge Zhang Fei to win at that time, they also knew that Zhang Fei's discussion of the ancestral law was very beneficial to the emperor.

It is very likely that the emperor still wants to set the law of the ancestors.

Aside from the emperor's personal interests, for the new law, the previous ancestral law is a roadblock!

Therefore, before starting the reform, this blocking stone must be removed.

Otherwise, every word in the new law may violate the law of the ancestors.

"If you lose, you have to admit it. How old are you, and you still want to play tricks."

Wang Anshi, who came out afterward, made fun of Sima Guang.

"I don't want to argue with you today."

Sima Guang quickened his pace as he spoke.

Wang Anshi immediately chased after him, "Wait a minute, I have something to talk to you about."

Sima Guang snorted, "I have nothing to talk to you about."

"There is a gain! There is a gain!"

Wang Anshi directly pulled Sima Guang's sleeve.

Sima Guang was terrified, "What a shame you are talking about, please let go."

Wang Anshi just didn't let go, "I really have something serious to talk to you."

"You let go first."

"Let go and don't go."

"Wang Jiefu!"

"Okay, okay, let me let go first."

Wang Anshi let go of his hand and asked, "How do you plan to judge the Yan family's eucalyptus?"

Sima Guang was taken aback for a moment, and replied cautiously: "You have already said that you have broken the law by quoting the law, and you still ask?"

Wang Anshi said: "If you use the law to break the law, all the bookstores in the capital will be sued immediately. You can't punish all the bookstores to those authors."

Sima Guang said: "I have thought about it myself."

Wang Anshi said: "Just wait."

"Waiting for what?"

"I will ask His Majesty to legislate on this matter immediately."

"This is a judicial matter, you also want to take care of it?" Sima Guang said angrily.

Wang Anshi hurriedly said: "Don't worry, I am establishing a tax law. Didn't I just say that if you want to print a book in the future, you must obtain the author's consent. The bookstore can pay the remuneration in exchange for the author's consent. I will I suggest that Your Majesty collect a deed tax in this regard, so as to protect the rights and interests of authors.

If you wait for me to promulgate this tax law, then you will be able to punish according to law, or make those booksellers pay money to authors, or not allow printing. @·”

He wants to draw a clear line with me. He doesn't care about judicial matters, but I can't interfere with his financial reforms. Sima Guang looked at Wang Anshi suspiciously, "Is this your idea?"

Wang Anshi asked: "How do you know it wasn't my idea?"

Sima Guang snorted: "If it's according to your opinion, I'm afraid the imperial court will print it by itself."

Wang Anshi was a little embarrassed, and coughed: "I won't hide it from you, this is Zhang San's idea for me."

"Just know."

.

Sima Guang looked at him with contempt.

Wang Anshi said: "Do you agree?"

Sima Guang asked: "How much tax do you plan to collect?"

"10%." Wang Anshi said: "It is collected from the author, so the price of the book will not increase too much."

That's not much. Sima Guang asked suddenly: "It seems that you are ready."

Wang Anshi chuckled.

Sima Guang nodded helplessly: "Okay! I'll wait for you."

Wang Anshi is obviously trying to test him, but also to guard against him. You can carry out judicial reform, but the tax law must not be counted in the judicial system. He is very worried that Sima Guang will use this to enact the tax law. The proportion is very large.

If Sima Guang refuses to agree, he will definitely interfere with the judiciary.

And Sima Guang knew that he had no right to reform the tax law. After all, the emperor did not support him, so he could only agree to Wang Anshi.

We don't violate the river water. @*

This heart is also uneasy, and finally it is coming.

Yes.

It's coming.

Don't say that Zhao Xu and Wang Anshi are impatient to wait any longer, even the opposition has no patience to wait.

They are already kneeling on the execution ground, but the guillotine has not fallen for a long time, and the onlookers are uncomfortable watching it!

Zhao Xu first officially promulgated the law of ancestors.

And he played very well this time, he directly engraved Taizong's edict on the stone tablet, and then stood it in front of the gate of the imperial city.

The edict was promulgated yesterday, and the stele is here today.

Obviously it was prepared long ago.

Can the ministers not understand what is going on?

All I can say is.

You little emperor is cruel enough!

But whoever made them lose the lawsuit, they can only swallow the bitter fruit with tears.

But everyone knows that the good show is yet to come.

Sure enough, on the second day after the stele was erected, Zhao Xu officially announced that he would carry out reforms aimed at the country's maladministration.

This is a blockbuster.

The courtiers were all dumbfounded.

Especially the officials of the third division headed by Minister Ji Tang Jie.

Establish three divisions?

Then what are our three divisions?

Who is real?

Wang Anshi quickly told them who was the real third division.

On the day this edict was promulgated, Wang Anshi promulgated the Royalty Law in the name of the Three Divisions and Regulations Division.

The law will be summarized in the deed law, that is, the tax is collected by deed.

Also on the same day, the right-hand man under the Kaifeng Mansion filed a lawsuit against Yan Jidao and gave his own verdict.

It was determined that Sanluzhai was illegal.

And interpretation is conventional judgment.

That's the way the Kaifeng government judged, and my small court can only judge like this.

But the verdict went back to Kaifeng Prefecture for review.

The Kaifeng government also issued amendments and explanations for Youxiang Gong's judgment. There are three main points. First, the act of printing other people's works for profit without the author's permission will be considered illegal.

There are still many manuscripts in contemporary times.

But the regulations only state "printing". In other words, hand-copying is allowed, even if you copy and sell it.

It can be seen that this method is specifically for printing.

Secondly, the term of protection is counted fifty years after the author's death. If you want to print the poems of Li Bai and Du Fu, it does not violate this regulation.

The third is the matter of specific compensation, which is set at a fine of fifty pennies. After all, this business is not a kind of huge profit at present, and the fine cannot be set too high.

However, it was not fully implemented in Bianjing until seven days later.

This gives the printing workshop a buffer time.

Of course, Sanluzhai was not awarded to Yan Jidao.

And ordered Sanluzhai to immediately stop printing and selling any collection of poems about Yan Shu. If they want to continue selling, they must obtain the authorization of the Yan family.

This decree and this case came into effect at the same time, and the copyright law came naturally.

Of course Sima Guang would not stand up and cooperate with Wang Anshi himself.

Lv Gong is his mutual friend with Wang Anshi and also supports Wang An.

Shi reformed the law, so Sima Guang asked Lu Gong to cooperate with Wang Anshi.

Many literati and scholar-bureaucrats were very excited about this.

But the officials of the third division are all stupid.

You promulgate tax laws, we don't know anything about it.

It can be seen that the regulations on setting up the three divisions are above their three divisions!

The roof of the imperial city was scolded immediately.

This is really shameless.

Many people never thought that Wang Anshi would do such a thing.

Of course, some people thought of it.

In the evening.

"Wen Gong is really good at predicting things, he really did this." Sima Guang sighed.

At the beginning, Wen Yanbo saw that the reform was imminent, but Wang Anshi did not rectify the administration of officials for a long time, which was unreasonable. The only explanation was that Wang Anshi planned to bypass the entire system.

Wen Yanbo said with a wry smile: "But I didn't expect him to be so ruthless. He directly promulgated the tax law without the discussion of the second government and the third department. Although this tax law is insignificant, it shows the power of this department! No wonder Officials must first promulgate the law of the ancestors. It can be said that there are three divisions in this system, and each of them is trampling on the law of the ancestors.”

The ancestral system is to divide the powers of affairs. You are good, monopolizing the power is completely the opposite.

Sima Guang was also very worried, but he still persuaded him: "This is only a temporary one after all. The key is the new law. We don't know the details yet. Duke Wen still needs to be patient. Don't be impulsive!"

Wen Yanbo glanced at him, and sighed: "Of course I know, but even if I don't play, I can't stop those censors and admonishers below from playing. Someone must have played to impeach Wang Anshi."

This Yushitai is a very strange department. Yushi Zhongcheng can't stop the censors below, and Yushi Zhongcheng himself is often impeached.

Speaking, Wen Yanbo glanced at Sima Guang again, and said: "Didn't you say before that you want to fight that Wang Anshi in the courtroom, so as to avoid party disputes?"

Sima Guang cast a glance at him, his eyebrows darkened and he began to think.

Over there, after arguing with Tang Jie all day, Wang Anshi left the battlefield to Lu Huiqing and went home by himself.

As soon as I got home, I heard my wife's laughter. It turned out that there was a guest at home.

It is none other than Zhang Fei.

"Why did you come here?"

Wang Anshi looked at Zhang Fei suspiciously.

He knows Zhang Fei's character too well, so he will go to the Three Treasure Hall for everything!

"I'm here to congratulate Master Wang."

Zhang Fei quickly got up to congratulate.

Wang Anshi waved his hands and said: "The work has not yet been accomplished, so what joy."

Ms. Wang said: "After all, Zhang San also has good intentions."

Wang Anshi glanced at his wife, and was forced to say to Zhang Fei: "Okay, okay, I know what you mean."

Madam Wang said again: "Husband, let me pour you a pot of hot tea."

Wang Anshi hurriedly said: "Thank you Madam, thank you Madam, I have been arguing with that old man Tang for a whole day today, and this talk is dry."

Madam Wang persuaded: "Everyone is in the same hall as ministers, so please talk about things."

Wang Anshi sighed: "Ma'am, you don't know something, I don't want to argue with him, I was blocked in the room by him and scolded, there is no way!"

Madam Wang shook her head helplessly, "I'll help you pour tea."

After finishing speaking, she said to Zhang Fei: "Zhang San, you stay here for dinner, and I will ask the servants to prepare more dishes."

Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Thank you Madam for your kindness, but I still have some things to deal with later, so I won't bother Madam. No wrong update@"

Madam Wang didn't force her to go out of the house.

As soon as Mrs. Wang left, Wang Anshi asked Zhang Fei, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

Zhang Fei smiled: "Scholar Wang should know about the tax-calculated transactions in my small shop."

Wang Anshi nodded.

Zhang Fei said: "Isn't this the royalty law promulgated, but those booksellers and literati may not know how to pay taxes, and there may be insufficient manpower to set up the three divisions of regulations. , to the shop."

Wang Anshi's eyes lit up, and he looked at Zhang Fei again, "Be more straightforward."

Zhang Fei said directly: "The previous three divisions used power and threatened.

Those businessmen are not allowed to ask me to calculate taxes. If Master Wang can give this tax calculation to the small shop, then the businessmen will know who is the real third division and who should listen to them in the future. Update without errors @"

Wang Anshi pointed at Zhang Fei, laughed and said, "You boy."

Zhang Fei chuckled.

Wang Anshi nodded without thinking too much, "Okay! I promise you."

"Thank you, Master Wang."

For Wang Anshi, this is really a stroke of genius. The establishment of the three divisions of the Regulations Division must be established immediately. Zhang Fei took the initiative to turn himself into a tree of Shang Yang, so he had no reason to refuse.

Coincidentally, the Third Division had been besieging the Bianjing Law Firm for tax calculations. If he could help Zhang Fei turn around, then everyone would know who to listen to in the future.

When Mrs. Wang came into the room with refreshments, she found that Zhang Fei had already left, "Is Zhang San gone?"

Wang Anshi said: "He just talked to me about some small things, and then he left."

After Madam Wang put down the refreshments, she glanced at Wang Anshi and said with a smile: "This Zhang San is really capable of making a fuss, and there are really many ways to make money. I heard that he has opened another bookstore."

"Hehe, my cousin is right. This kid has a lot of tricks, one plan after another, sometimes surprises, sometimes frightened."

While talking, Wang Anshi suddenly felt something was wrong, looked at his wife nervously, and said, "Cousin, you didn't sign any contract with him, did you?"

Mrs. Wang hurriedly praised: "My cousin is really good at predicting things!"

This brat, no wonder he walks so fast, it turns out. Wang Anshi said depressedly: "Cousin, our family does not lack this little money, what do you promise him?"

Madam Wang said: "I just think that the royalty law was promulgated by you personally, my cousin, and our family should also set an example."

As Wang Anshi's wife, she is eloquent.

Wang Anshi said awkwardly: "But this is my work after all, you should ask me first."

Madam Wang snorted: "I saw that the booksellers who pirated your poems and articles didn't ask you, but my cousin didn't seem to care, so I made my own decision after thinking about it."

Wang Anshi picked up a cup of tea in embarrassment, and wanted to ask his cousin how much he sold for it. If it was too much, he might be suspected of accepting bribes, but he was too embarrassed to say so.

Does Mrs. Wang not know what her cousin is thinking, and she took the initiative to tell her: "One hundred guan a year, for five years, he will also give this price to the Yan family.".
