Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 171: Open source and throttling


Standing in front of the tavern, Lu Zhen watched Deng Wan enter the imperial city, then turned around and entered the tavern, and then went out directly through the back door to the alley behind the tavern, where he saw a carriage parked.

"Judge Shen, the officer has already told him."

Lu Zhen came to the carriage and whispered to the window.

I just heard someone ask: "Will Deng Wan take the bait?"

Lu Hui hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, the judge. I know Deng Wan very well. I have always been eager to get a promotion. I have been flattering Lu Huiqing before. If I can't get it this time With this relationship, I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to get promoted in this life."

"Well. Then there are laborers."

"That."

"Yuanwailang, please don't worry, I have already bought the house you fancy. As long as this can be done, the house will be transferred to you through Ma's pawnshop. In addition, if you have the opportunity, go to the city tax department , our third division will also secretly support you, and guarantee your promotion and fortune."

"Thank you, Judge Shen."

For Zhang Fei, the case is over after the lawsuit is over, it is just a business, but for the court, the aftermath is getting worse.

In that lawsuit, the two parties have made it very clear that the Department of Regulations of the Second Government will be subject to judicial supervision.

It's not a coincidence.

Sima Guang, the future head of the conservative faction, just took office in the Court of Justice, and at the same time it was rumored that he wanted to reform the judiciary.

With such a mess, the conservatives are urging Sima Guang to carry out judicial reform as soon as possible. If it is later than the new law, then the judicial reform cannot be specifically targeted at the new law.

Although at that point, ugly is ugly, but the best way is to carry out judicial reform before the new law.

Sima Guang, of course, followed suit and formally proposed judicial reform to Shenzong.

Today's court meeting is not about Wang Anshi's reform, but Sima Guang's judicial reform.

After all, Wang Anshi's side has already been settled, so there is no need to worry about setting up the second government regulations for the time being. New laws and regulations are currently being formulated. consider carefully.

The errand law is really very sensitive. If Zhang Fei's previous lawsuit hadn't aroused widespread concern among the people, Wang Anshi would not have introduced the errand law first, and he was also pushing the boat along the way.

However, Sima Guang's temper was very cautious. He did not rush to ask Shenzong to carry out national reforms. He still proceeded step by step.

Things are for prevention, music is for control.

Divide powers and check and balance each other.

This leads to a general framework. The core idea is the separation of politics and law. The state capital and the county magistrate of the county government are separated from the government to form a judicial department. , The county government is only in charge of administration.

Then it is suggested that Guozijian's litigation studies should increase its recruitment and train talents first.

"The minister agrees."

The first one to stand up to support Sima Guang was not Wen Yanbo or Zhao Bian, but Wang Anshi.

The ministers present were all taken aback.

When did the two of them hook up?

Sima Guang himself was dumbfounded.

I didn't tell you, the two of us support each other.

Zhao Xu was also a little confused, looking at Wang Anshi suspiciously.

I also heard Wang Anshi say: "It just so happens that we set up the Erfu Regulations Department to reform the labor law, which will help the reform of the Sima University."

Zhao Xu asked: "Really?"

Wang Anshi nodded: "Reporting to Your Majesty, just now, Bachelor Sima said that the current government officials in many places are uneven, not to mention corruption and bribery, and even cause many wronged cases. This is related to the common people. It can no longer be done by ordinary high-class households, and some well-trained people must be used as Yamen, who are responsible for arresting criminals.

It just so happened that the official service law of the minister also intends to change the service of the upper-class households to the method of exempting the service with money. "

The core of Zhang Fei's set of public security laws is the separation of politics and law, but an important basis for supporting the separation of politics and law is to specialize, even the government officials must be professional.

If you want to teach the law, you must be serious, and you must follow the rules in everything.

So Sima Guang first proposed to cultivate talents, but specialization also needs financial support.

Sima Guang was furious when he heard that, who the **** wants you to pay? I don’t know how to choose from the three yamen. When he was about to stand up and refute Wang Anshi, Zhao Xu nodded and smiled: "That's great! Both of you Qing is my right-hand man, with two Qings here, I will have no worries! Go ahead!"

Who wants to play with him. Sima Guang wanted to say more, but Wang Anshi stood up again and said, "Your Majesty is wise."

Chen Shengzhi and other reformers also stepped forward.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Conservatives such as Wen Yanbo can't speak against it, they can only stand up and express their support.

Sima Guang was so depressed that he walked out of the hall angrily.

Wang Anshi chased after him.

"Junshi! Junshi!"

After finally catching up, Wang Anshi quickly grabbed Sima Guang's sleeve, "Junshi, I called you a lot, why didn't you answer?"

Sima Guang jumped up and cursed: "Wang Jiefu, you shameless villain, who wants to help you."

What he didn't know was that Wang Anshi wanted to use his judicial reform to provide more sufficient rationale for his own reform, and he might even incorporate his judicial reform into his own reform.

My reform is based on your reform.

Is this Sima Guang cool?

Wang Anshi, who took advantage of it, pretended to be wronged and said: "Junshi, I kindly help you, why do you still scold me? It's really unreasonable."

"Bah!"

Sima Guang sprayed directly on Wang Anshi's face, "I don't want your dirty money."

Wang Anshi said: "You are really bloody."

"I'm spitting blood?"

Sima Guang sneered, "Just now you said that the upper-class households should pay to be exempted from military service, so let me ask you, will you use this to raise taxes?"

Wang Anshi hesitated and said nothing.

Sima Guang asked: "What? I have nothing to say?"

Wang Anshi said: "The money I added was from the rich, but why not use the money to hire the poor who lack livelihoods?"

The main purpose of his reform is to improve finances, how to improve without tax increases.

Sima Guang was so angry that his mouth was trembling: "Throughout the ages, anyone who increased taxes said it was for the people and for the world, but what happened? You are trying to make money in different ways."

Wang Anshi also became excited, "Even if I am collecting money, I am collecting money for the country. The country's finances are not enough to make ends meet every year, and you don't know it."

I have to admit that Sima Guang's mouth can always talk about your weakness.

Sima Guangdao: "The fiscal revenue is not enough to make ends meet every year. It is because the court spends too much, not because the money is not enough, so we should find ways to save it."

When he said this, he suddenly lowered his voice and said: "You Wang Jiefu has read a lot of history books, don't you know that if you don't persuade the court to save, even if you collect too much, it will not be enough. Think about it , Since the establishment of the country by Taizu until now, how much has the financial growth increased, but what is the result?"

Wang Anshi retorted: "If you don't spend money, how can you build water conservancy projects and expand the territory? It can be seen that there is nothing wrong with spending money. It depends on how the money is spent and whether it can be spent wisely. Look at those big Although wealthy businessmen earn a lot, they also spend a lot, which shows that as long as the money is used well, it can make money."

Sima Guang said: "How can the businessman's way be used to govern the country."

Wang Anshi said: "What's the difference?"

"That's private money, this is public money."

"It's not the difference in money, but the difference in people. This requires us ministers to lead by example."

"Do you think this will work?"

"If you can't do it, you have to do it. Shouldn't you rely on your servants to lead by example?"

"You and I are too lazy to talk to you!"

The two had a big fight as before, and broke up unhappy.

Sima Guang studied history books every day because he had seen through the past. He believed that the more you earn, the more those people spend more, which cannot be compensated. Save it and save it for a rainy day.

But Wang Anshi is looking to the future. He wants to change his fate against the sky. Back, if there is a war, it will be stretched immediately.

In addition, the external environment of the Great Song Dynasty was worse than that of any other dynasty, and it was impossible to create external conditions like the Wenjing rule.

The only way is to manage money.

He who enriches his family capitalizes the country, and he who enriches his country capitalizes the world. If he wants to enrich the world, he capitalizes in the world.

However, the quarrel between the two of them is just a small microcosm of the open and secret struggle in the court, but one thing is certain, that is, the court and China are forming interest groups one by one. To put it bluntly, they are people with the same interests. Huddled together to keep warm, no one dared to face this great change alone.

If you change, you will benefit.

Some people want to defend their rights, while others hope to make a lot of money from it.

Any reform and reform, no matter how great the original intention is, whether it is a dispute of ideas or not, will eventually evolve into a conflict of interests.

It is inevitable.

Zhang Fei doesn't pay too much attention to the changes in the court. With his current ability, it can't affect too much. What he has to do now is to do his own thing well, step by step.

Today, he is going to personally go to the suburbs to promote the tax calculation.

In front of Zhang's house.

"Dragon Five."

Zhang Fei came out and asked Long Wu who was sitting in the carriage: "Is the suburb safe?"

Li Si said first: "Then there is no safety in the city, and the west of the city is like that."

The last time he was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, he still has a lot of heart!

Zhang Fei was really afraid of being attacked, and said again: "Should I call Daniel, it will be safer."

Long Wu showed a look of embarrassment: "But at most I can only protect Engong and Mrs. Xu, and I can no longer take care of Da Niu."

"?"

Zhang Fei was stunned for a while before he realized it. He thought to himself, is everyone called Long Wu such a stinky fart? She nodded and said, "Okay. Don't call me a big cow anymore."

Looking around again, "Is that woman still unwilling to come out? Li Si, you go to Xu's house to remind you."

"Hey!"

As soon as Li Si jumped off the carriage, he said, "Third Brother, Mrs. Xu is here."

Zhang Fei turned his head to look, and saw Xu Zhiqian walking over dressed in a boy's attire, but her curvy figure made it obvious that she was a woman at a glance.

Xu Zhiqian, who had been cooped up at home for two days, finally got out.

When she saw Zhang Fei, a shyness flashed across her phoenix eyes.

Zhang Fei walked over and said with a naive smile, "Zhiqian, you are here."

Xu Zhiqian looked left and right with a guilty conscience, then stared at him, and said in a low voice, "So and so told you to call me Zhiqian."

"Okay! Lady!"

"?"

Xu Zhiqian almost bit her tongue, so she might as well be called Zhiqian, and spat: "I knew you, a disciple, have no good intentions."

Zhang Fei said aggrievedly: "You are really full and scolding the cook, didn't you ask me to help you back then."

Xu Zhiqian said: "But I didn't tell you to propose marriage!"

"You didn't say it, but you didn't say no!"

"How do I know you will propose marriage?"

Xu Zhiqian really had thousands of calculations, she didn't expect that Zhang Fei would be so crazy.

"This is the optimal solution."

"What is the optimal solution?"

"Think about it, no matter what, you are going to marry. If you marry someone else, then you can only take care of your husband and raise your children at home. This is obviously not what you want. Only by marrying me can you It is not the best solution to be able to continue to complain for those people with me."

Xu Zhiqian blinked her eyes, and said: "Even if that's the case, you have to discuss it with me beforehand, why do you decide on your own."

Zhang Fei said calmly, "Because I know you will agree."

"Bah!"

Xu Zhiqian said: "Who said I would agree."

Zhang Fei said: "If you don't believe me, let's have a try?"

Xu Zhiqian was stunned, "How to try?"

Zhang Fei said: "Just pretend I'm discussing with you and see if you agree?"

Xu Zhiqian nodded and said: "Okay!" She said in her heart, although you are very eloquent, but if you let your rhetoric go, I just won't agree, it depends on you.

Zhang Fei took out a small strip-shaped wooden box from his waist, opened the wooden box, found a jade hairpin inside, and handed it over, "Xu Zhiqian, do you want to marry me?"

"?"

Xu Zhiqian was immediately stunned.

Is this so serious?

What about the good rhetoric?

"Me me."

Xu Zhiqian's cheeks were stained with glow, her vermilion lips opened and closed, she wanted to refuse, but the words were stuck in her throat, she couldn't say anything, after a while, she gouged out Zhang Fei, and said angrily: "It's boring !”

Take the jade hairpin with one hand and get on the carriage.

Looking at his hands, Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Woman!"
