Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 378: See you again
Chapter 378 Seeing the sun again
Since ancient times, politics has been a very pure power movement. Therefore, in politics, everything is negotiable, except for power, which has no room for negotiation.
The same goes for any politician.
In the beginning, Yushitai really only wanted to deal with Zhang Fei and the law of the law, because these two "things" disgusted them very much.
So at the beginning, the scholar-bureaucrats were united as one.
This time Zhang Fei must be killed.
Zhao Xu has nothing to do about it.
Because the reason they brought up was the orthodox right to rule given to the monarch by Confucianism.
This is very important to the emperor and must not be violated.
However, after the emperor ordered to investigate the case, they began to think about bringing Xu Zun in.
This old man is not pleasant either.
As for Sima Guang, it was not an accident. Although they had never thought about dealing with Sima Guang before, Zhang Fei's confession made Yushitai change his mind.
If the law of saying the law is heresy, and Zhang Fei committed the crime of making a jacket, a book and a jacket, then it is impossible for Sima Guang not to be investigated.
It was Sima Guang who forced Zhang Fei to go to class. Sima Guang himself admitted this.
If Sima Guang is spared, are you willing to convict Zhang Fei?
There is no legal justification.
Besides, they don't want to mess with the censors in the future. You must know that their power is to stare at the prime minister.
Many political advisers were pulled down by their censors.
During the party struggle in Qingli, it was those censors who charged forward every day, impeached Fan Zhongyan and others, and finally forced Fan Zhongyan to leave the court one by one.
The subsequent involvement of Fu Bi and Wang Anshi was beyond their expectations, but this further angered these admonishers and censors.
Because they also feel wronged. They don’t think they are bending the law for personal gain. There is concrete evidence. Bar.
The two departments of Taiwan and Jian are very united, except for their boss.
The boss of Jianyuan is Zhao Bian, and the boss of Yushitai is Wen Yanbo. They are all political affairs counselors.
However, these two departments can act regardless of the boss's face.
The prime ministers are also very annoyed, saying that it is against the law, are you going to burn books and defraud scholars?
But there is a very subtle difference.
In the beginning, everyone was only targeting Zhang Fei. Although some of them disagreed, they were not too angry. They were just thinking, let's just use the evidence and let's go through the legal process.
But now they are not talking about whether there is evidence or not, but they think that you are not allowing us to speak, and that you are punishing us with speech, which is not acceptable.
Not long after Wang Anshi entered, Lu Gongzhu immediately stood up and expressed his support for the rule of law.
Zhao Bian also stood up and expressed his support for the rule of law.
The censor is also on fire. Anyway, the case is decided by the emperor and supported by public opinion. If you want to send it to your door, I will accept it.
The Huangcheng Division changed from a three-player mahjong to a four-player mahjong, and finally turned into Zhuanzhuan mahjong.
At this point, it returns to the traditional drama, that is, Zhengshitang VS Taijian.
Among the political advisers, only Zeng Gongliang and Wen Yanbo have not yet entered. Zeng Gongliang has been recuperating at home, and he is too lazy to get involved in this matter.
Wen Yanbo is reporting every day, don't you want to arrest people, okay, I will provide them with evidence and see how many people you can arrest.
And he is the boss of Yushitai, so he also has power.
All the examinees of Guozijian were reported by him.
Even including several scholar-bureaucrats.
This matter became more and more troublesome, and it seemed that it was out of control, and even alarmed the queen mothers of the two palaces.
"Emperor, what is going on?"
Empress Cao felt flustered.
In the hundred years since the founding of the Song Dynasty, this kind of thing has never happened. The key point is that there was no sign at all before this incident. At first, it was only because of a teaching assistant who was lowered from the ninth rank.
But often these major political events are all because of small people.
Zhao Xu said with a look of grievance: "Madam, grandson is innocent!"
All the prime ministers went in, how could you be innocent.
Empress Dowager Gao who was sitting on the side wanted to educate the emperor, but in the end she held back because she knew very well that Empress Dowager Cao didn't like her interfering in the emperor's government affairs very much.
Empress Dowager Cao can ask, but she doesn't believe it, "Then what's going on?"
Zhao Xudao: "Before they said that Zhang San's legal system disturbed the rule of law and corrupted the law. Although my grandson didn't think so, my grandson still asked them to investigate this matter. But how did I know that this also involved Xu Zhongtu, Sima Junshi, in the end even Mr. Fu was implicated."
The Empress Dowager Cao asked: "Would it be that those censors practiced favoritism and cheated in vain to weave unjust prisons?"
Of course she is inclined towards Sima Guang and the others.
Zhao Xu said: "Sun'er has been sending people to watch. If the law of the rule of law is heresy, then Yushitai left them to assist in the investigation. It is not considered favoritism and fraud. There is indeed evidence against them."
"Is the legal system heresy?" Empress Dowager Cao was also a little confused.
Zhao Xudao: "Although grandson doesn't think so, many people thought so at first, and Zhang San should be punished with this, but now they have changed again, and they say that speech can't be punished, and grandson doesn't know what to do. .”
"These literati are really full."
The Empress Dowager Cao whispered, she also experienced the hypocrisy of these civil servants, "You are the emperor, you can't accommodate them in everything, you have to have your own opinions."
After a pause, she added: "The overall situation is the most important thing in everything. This prime minister has been arrested. Whoever will assist the emperor in governing the country must deal with this matter as soon as possible."
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "Grandson knows."
But in fact, he is not in a hurry now.
Who is most anxious now?
It's those literati!
Some of them want to defend Confucianism, and the other part want to deal with Zhang Fei.
I never thought that this knife was directly slashing at them.
People are dizzy.
The literati in the Song Dynasty were very concerned about their own freedom of speech. Before that, whenever the emperor wanted to punish ministers with speech, the ministers would stand up and oppose it.
But if Zhang Fei is to be convicted, then everyone has no objection.
Whether it is a double standard or a contradiction.
The problem is that now that the prime ministers are all involved, the key point is that Yu Shitai has really produced evidence.
The literati are thinking, if something happens to the prime minister, can we still talk in the future?
It is absolutely impossible to set this precedent.
The two evils are the lesser!
Is it worth it for a Er pen?
Which onion is he?
As a result, the public opinion began to change again.
Many people wrote to the emperor again, expressing that speeches should not be used to punish crimes. How could this ancient holy king do such a thing.
Of course, he didn't plead for Zhang Fei, nor did he say that the law of system is right, they just talked about the situation of Fu Bi, Sima Guang, Xu Zun and others.
At the same time, they didn't blame Yushitai either.
There is nothing wrong with Yushitai in this case, and they still support it.
Anyway, this letter is written more tactfully than the other. You must know that this kind of double-labeled text is a test of writing skills.
Some of them are very well written, but there are also some that even Zhao Xu finds it funny.
What safeguarding imperial power is clearly safeguarding your own power.
It didn't hit you, you all screamed for beating and killing, and when it hit you, you all screamed for pain.
It really makes no sense.
Of course, Zhao Xu wouldn't be too impulsive. Seeing that public opinion began to change, he called another meeting.
But Jiang Zhiqi, Peng Siyan and other censors still insisted on punishing Zhang Fei.
They can't be cowardly, admitting cowardly is tantamount to admitting mistakes.
Wen Yanbo is too lazy to talk to them, and he is also unwilling to talk to the emperor. Anyway, if you want to arrest them, I will report them and see how many you can arrest.
Chen Xiu, a scholar of the Imperial Academy, stood up and said, "In my opinion, Mr. Fu and Bachelor Sima were only deceived by Zhang San."
Many ministers immediately stood up.
"That's right, that's right, it's all Zhang San's trick. He deliberately designed it in advance to involve Fu Gong and Bachelor Sima in order to cover himself."
Seeing that the conservatives were all talking, Lu Huiqing couldn't help teasing: "You can all see clearly, clearly, can Fu Gong and the others be deceived?"
This sentence made Chen Xiu and the others speechless in embarrassment, and just glared at Lu Huiqing angrily.
What time is this, you kid still want to engage in internal strife, right?
Zeng Gongliang, who was specially invited by Zhao Xu, was very clear about his mission, and he stood up and said: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, the court seems to be making a big fuss about this matter. If Confucianism for a thousand years can be easily destroyed by a yellow-mouthed child Drop, that... that is nothing worthy of our praise."
Jiang Zhiqi immediately retorted: "Mr. Zeng's words are wrong. Zhang San's legal system is very tempting with benefits. The court should not be careless."
Zeng Gongliang asked: "Then tell me, what is the law of the rule of law?"
Jiang Zhiqi immediately said: "What is defending the legitimate rights and interests of individuals."
Zeng Gongliang said: "Zhang San's original words are a consensus among people to defend their legitimate rights and interests."
Jiang Zhiqi asked, "So what?"
Zeng Gongliang said: "What is consensus? It is an idea that already exists and is generally recognized. Does filial piety and loyalty belong to consensus?"
Jiang Zhiqi said: "I said at the beginning that what he said seems to be reasonable, but it is extremely easy to cause ambiguity. This has been the case since ancient times. Who knows what Zhang Sanan's heart is."
Zeng Gongliang glanced at him, "You can guarantee that I have never said anything that would cause ambiguity. I, Zeng, dare not say that."
The ministers were silent.
Zeng Gongliang said again: "If you want to convict a person just because of a statement that is likely to cause ambiguity, then the Qin law is not so strict!"
Jiang Zhiqi immediately said: "If you follow Zeng Xiang's words, it is better to abolish the crime of making jackets, books and jackets. If anyone commits this crime in the future, they can all be exonerated?"
Zeng Gongliang frowned slightly, "You, Jiang Yushi, can't decide whether you are guilty or not."
Jiang Zhiqi said: "Everyone thinks so."
"Who?"
Zeng Gongliang glanced over.
There was silence in the hall.
Forget it!
For a pen, it's not worth it.
Jiang Zhiqi didn't make a sound, and retreated directly.
Zhao Xu asked: "Mr. Zeng thinks how to deal with this matter?"
Zeng Gongliang said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the old minister thinks this is just a trivial matter. Disputes over knowledge are not uncommon. Some people agree with it and prove that it has merits. However, it is only natural that everyone has doubts. We can't discuss it." If you commit a crime, you shouldn’t set up a big prison for it. When it comes to learning, you should discuss it with learning. If you have any doubts, you can go to the Imperial College to argue with Zhang San, instead of arguing endlessly in the court.”
Zhao Xu nodded and asked again: "Do you have any objections?"
"I agree with Mr. Zeng's words."
"The minister seconded the proposal."
The ministers stood up one after another.
Zhao Xu said: "Then let's stop here."
"Huh, I've really drank a lot these days!"
Shaking, Zhang Fei lifted up his trousers and fastened his trouser pockets, but as soon as he left the latrine, a guard came over, "Sanlang, the government has issued an order to let you out, and someone will come soon."
Zhang Fei said: "How much time is left?"
"Up to an hour."
"OK."
Zhang Fei nodded, "You guys have to keep an eye on it, come in and stop me immediately when you see my signal."
"Saburo don't worry."
After giving instructions, Zhang Fei went back to the house, and the maidservant stood up to give way.
"I'm telling you, I've already turned my underwear upside down just now, this time I'm going to kill everyone."
"It's not stained with feces."
Cao Dongdong tilted his head to look.
"Go, go!"
Zhang Fei said: "Let's start."
Fu Shichun hehe said: "It's ridiculous that some people believe such nonsense."
Zhang Fei said: "Take care of me. One tube!"
"I don't care about you—lose money."
Fu Shichun put his cards down, "Seven pairs."
Zhang Fei became angry and said: "I said Xiao Chunchun, you did it on purpose, since you came, I have been losing money all the time."
Fu Shichun snorted: "Thanks to you, I came here."
Zhang Fei said: "Obviously Xiao Ma and Ya Nei reported you, so do my shit."
Ma Xiaoyi immediately said: "Third brother, you also have a share."
"You shut up."
Zhang Fei glared at Ma Xiaoyi angrily, pointed at Fu Shichun and said, "In the past few days, you have been acting weird to me every day, bullying honest people, right?"
Fu Shichun slapped the table, "Who is bullying whom? After I go back, I will never let you go."
"Why wait to go back."
Zhang Fei kicked it directly.
Fu Shichun didn't know that he would do something, he was kicked to the ground, Cao Dongdong and Ma Xiaoyi were also stunned.
After a while, Fu Shichun pointed at Zhang Fei, "How dare you beat me, a little Erbi."
"You don't have to pick a date to hit you."
Zhang Fei raised the table with both hands and threw it towards Fu Shichun.
Fu Shichun rolled to the side, dodged, then immediately got up and kicked directly.
"Brother Chun, show mercy."
Ma Xiaoyi blocked it with one hand, this kid is good at it.
Zhang Fei took the opportunity to kick again, hitting Fu Shichun's abdomen.
Fu Shichun covered his abdomen, pointed at Ma Xiaoyi, not daring to say anything: "Little Ma, you actually helped him."
Ma Xiaoyi said with an innocent face: "I am just...!"
"Xiaochun, don't be afraid, I have my yamen here."
Cao Dongdong suddenly kicked Zhang Fei.
Zhang Fei sat down on the ground, "Yanei, you hit me?"
Cao Dongdong hehe said: "Two against two, this is fair."
"That's great!"
Ma Xiaoyi flew over excitedly, kicking three times in a row.
Can you fly? Seeing this, Zhang Fei panicked, **** it, forgot that they all know martial arts, this time it's really miserable. Forget it, I owe them anyway.
"Niaoer pen, look at the trick."
Fu Shichun has already rushed over.
"Fuck me! You don't slap people in the face, I'm fighting with you, ah——!"
All of a sudden, the fight in this room was in full swing.
A circle of guards outside leaned against the windows, yawning and watching them.
"San Lang is not very good at this skill!"
"It's not an opponent at all."
"Don't say it, Cao Yanei's skill is really good."
"But it seems that the energy is not as good as the pony."
"It's a pity that Xiao Ma and Saburo are on the same team, what a crime!"
"Boss, when shall we go in?"
"Waiting for Saburo's password."
"But I see that Saburo is already huddled in the corner, he can only hug his head and be beaten, I'm afraid he can't give a secret signal."
"Then let's go in."
With a bang, the door opened.
"What are you doing? Do you want to fight here? Don't you want to live?"
After a soft reprimand, several people stepped forward to separate the four of them.
"Hoo!"
Zhang Fei, who was hiding in the corner, was finally relieved, and was helped up again. In a blink of an eye, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. , I never thought you TM would be so ruthless?"
Fu Shichun excitedly said: "You did it first."
Ma Xiaoyi was also beaten like a pig's head, he wanted to cry but said without tears: "Third brother, if you don't know how to fight, don't do it, I have received several punches for you."
Zhang Fei was beaten until tears came out, "You think I want to be beaten, but if I don't get beaten by you now, I will be beaten by my father-in-law and Zhiqian in mixed doubles when I go back. It's better to be beaten by you. Oops .It hurts me to death."
Cao Dongdong asked: "Why?"
Zhang Fei said: "Think about it, how worried your father is at home. If you know that we play mahjong, drink, and pick up girls here every day, you will not die when you go back."
Cao Dongdong blinked, "Why didn't you say it earlier, I was trying my best to protect my face just now. Pony, hit brother a few more times, remember, hit in the face."
Ma Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Brother, stand still."
"Stand firm."
Bang bang bang bang!
"Ouch! Ouch!"
The guards didn't move at all, their lips were not parted, and they felt incredible.
"Stop stop! It's almost done, I can't even close my mouth."
Cao Dongdong tilted his tongue and shouted indistinctly.
Ma Xiaoyi stopped, suddenly looked at Fu Shichun and said, "Xiaochun, you don't have any injuries on your face."
Fu Shichun quickly shook his head and said, "I don't need it, my father!"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said: "That's not okay, we were all beaten to blood, and you are so handsome by yourself, it's fake!"
Cao Dongdong suddenly turned his head to look at Fu Shichun, "Xiaochun, just help me, if I get caught, my father will beat me to death."
Fu Shichun pointed at Zhang Fei, "It's all him!"
"Come on, brothers."
Zhang Fei will not give him this chance.
"What do you guys want to do? Oops! You bastards, you actually bully the few with the more."
After half an hour.
The four of them changed into tattered prison clothes and supported each other out of the hut.
I saw six guards lined up at the door, paying high respects to them.
"Several distinguished guests go slowly."
"Excuse me."
"Where, where, remember to pay the money as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, someone will send you the money tomorrow."
"Welcome to come back next time, everyone."
When he was about to leave the hospital, a young guard blurted out.
Huh?
The four of them looked back at the guard at the same time.
Cao Dongdong hummed: "If you don't sleep with me, I won't come."
