Judge of the Song Dynasty Chapter 639: Cup of tea explaining the rural method
Chapter 639 Cup Tea Interpretation Township Law
At the same time that Wang Anshi received Zhang Fei's secret letter, Sima Guang also received Zhang Fei's letter.
Only read half of this letter, and Sima Guang was already furious, "Wang Jiefu, Wang Jiefu, you despicable and shameless villain, you actually want to take all the merits of the Hezhong Mansion for yourself, you are really in vain. book!"
After a lot of cursing, Sima Guang gasped for breath.
He really wanted to compare himself with Wang Anshi, and this competitive atmosphere was created by Wang Anshi. He shamelessly blamed all the achievements of the Hezhong government on the head of the new government, which really made him very angry.
Thanks to Zhang Fei's letter, telling him all this.
After a while, Sima Guang calmed down a little, picked up the letter again, and continued to read. Next, Zhang Fei also told him that judicial reform played a role in it, so he couldn't help nodding, "If there is no judicial The reform is to clear up the administration of officials, how his new deal succeeded, this ungrateful Wang Jiefu."
But the following content made him raise his eyebrows, "It turns out that Zhang San is also aware of the problem on Jingdong East Road." He immediately calmed down and looked at it very carefully.
Suddenly someone said outside the door: "Master, Wen Gong is here."
"Not seen."
Sima Guang responded directly, but as he spoke, he was suddenly taken aback, "Who is here?"
"Wen Gong."
"Please hurry up."
After finishing speaking, he immediately folded the letter and put the envelope into his sleeve.
After a while, Wen Yanbo entered the house.
The two exchanged a salute, Wen Yanbo said: "Jun Shi, have you heard about the finances of Hezhong Mansion?"
"Me."
Sima Guang just opened his mouth and coughed again, "I heard that the finances of Hezhong Prefecture are better than in previous years."
Wen Yanbo nodded, "It's definitely better than East Jingdong Road, but I think Wang Jiefu will definitely not admit defeat. You have to be fully prepared."
You must never have imagined that he actually wanted to take the credit for Hezhong Mansion as his own. Sima Guang muttered to himself, but he said: "This fact speaks louder than words."
Wen Yanbo said: "Although that is the case, you still have to be careful."
Sima Guang hummed.
He did not inform Wen Yanbo of Zhang Fei's letter, because the content of the letter was too explosive, and he thought that telling anyone would be a betrayal of Zhang Fei.
Wangfu.
One looks very similar to Wang Anshi, and bowed his hands respectfully to Wang Anshi, "An Guo has met my brother."
This person is Wang Anguo. He, Wang Anshi, and Wang Anshi's son Wang Yu are also known as the "Three Kings of Linchuan". .
The "children of other people's family" is not terrible, what is terrible is "every child of other people's family" and their children's children. This is really desperate!
"You really haven't changed at all, you are still so polite, there are no outsiders here, why should we brothers see others like this, sit down."
"Thank you brother."
Wang Anguo paid another salute with respect and respect, and then sat down. He didn't take a bath and slovenly, which was not the inheritance of their entire Wang family.
Wang Anshi shook his head helplessly, and suddenly asked: "An Guo, do you know why the officials transferred you back to Beijing?"
Wang Anguo said: "That's for my brother's sake."
Wang Anshi chuckled and said, "Maybe there are reasons for this, but it's also because of your outstanding ability. Otherwise, the officials would not really use you."
Wang Anguo did not make a sound.
Wang Anshi suddenly smiled, "I heard that the officials summoned you alone a few days ago."
Wang Anguo nodded slightly.
Wang Anshi said: "I also ask you how the people talk about the New Deal."
Wang Anguo nodded and said: "Yes."
Wang Anshi asked again: "Then how did you answer that?"
Wang Anguo glanced at Wang Anshi, hesitated for a moment, "I was saying that the outside world said that you employed people improperly and were eager to make money."
Wang Anshi was not angry either, with a playful look on his face, he continued to ask, "Then what do you think?"
Wang Anguo was silent for a while, "I will tell you my brother, Anguo also thinks so."
Wang Anshi nodded, "My brother and I have been arguing about current affairs since we were young. We quarreled with each other, but we never got into a fight. You don't like my New Deal. I expected it a long time ago. My only dissatisfaction The most important thing is that what you think is all rumored by outsiders, not what you saw with your own eyes, and you believe outsiders, but not me, my brother, which really makes me feel sad."
Wang Anguo said with a smile: "Everyone knows what the new policy is, and there are no outsiders here, so why do you need to argue."
Wang Anshi said: "You say I'm sophistry, I say you see that the wind is rain, it's meaningless to fight like this, we brothers might as well use this to decide the winner."
Wang Anguo looked at Wang Anshi in confusion.
Wang Anshi said: "After a while, the government will let you go to Jinan Prefecture to take up an idle job. You just need to keep an eye on the New Deal all the time. If there are any disadvantages, you can write to me. If it is true , then I will admit it. What do you think?"
Wang Anguo was taken aback for a moment, then nodded immediately.!
"Don't rush to agree." Wang Anshi raised his hand and said again: "If it's not true, you should do your best to assist me in carrying out the New Deal."
Wang Anguo said without hesitation, "It's a deal."
Wang Anshi said again: "But this is about you and my brother. I don't want outsiders to know, including my sister-in-law."
Wang Anguo's eyes flashed doubts, but he didn't think too much, nodded and said: "Okay!"
Wang Anshi glanced at Wang Anguo, lowered his brows slightly, and thought, whether Zhang San's words were exaggerated or not, I'll find out if An Guo is here, and it won't be too late for me to make a decision at that time.
Hezhong Mansion.
Although in the eyes of the people of Hezhong Mansion, the dozens of people who complained in Jingzhao Mansion are a big deal, the popularity among the public has always remained high.
But no matter whether it is in the imperial court or in the government, everyone seems to be very calm, at least on the surface, everyone is still busy with their own affairs, such as improving the wine tax, minerals and other systems.
On this matter, Wei Yingfang and the others are also very active, because if this matter is not resolved, the sword hanging over their heads by the procuratorate will not disappear.
Today, Yuan Jiang brought her plan to the imperial court to negotiate with the procuratorate.
It is to determine the release of the right to brew wine.
Then, the government ended up doing wine business in the way of a merchant.
Of course, this is actually just a formality. Not to mention Zhang Fei, even Su Zhe has known about it for a long time and agrees with it very much. In fact, this is also the consistent ruling philosophy of conservatives. Koi is more inclined to rule by doing nothing , the imperial court tried to monopolize the supplies that the people usually need as little as possible.
This is also an important reason why they oppose Wang Anshi, because Wang Anshi's ideas are just opposite to theirs.
The strategy proposed by Zhang Fei is in line with the ideas of the conservatives and does not conflict with the ideas of the reformers. Because of Wang Anshi's new law, the government will end up plundering the business of the merchants. Simply put, let the profiteers make the money , It’s better to let the court make money. This actually makes sense. After all, profiteers don’t use money to help the people, they only know how to collect money. It’s just that it’s difficult to operate, because officials are not good.
However, Zhang Fei's strategy is relatively eclectic. It is not to directly win the business of the merchants, but to cooperate with the merchants for a win-win situation. This is still in line with the new government's ruling philosophy. Allocate money for young crops, first give it to Ma's Jiekupu, and then Ma's Jiekupu will cooperate with those big wine merchants, which is to emphasize the use of businessman's means to monopolize these interests.
As a middleman, Zhang Fei also prepared a contract similar to a memorandum of understanding between the government and the procuratorate.
Because at this time and at that time, everyone used to be secretive and discuss privately, but now it is not possible, right and wrong, everyone has to make it clear, how can the government guarantee that after I change it, the procuratorate will not go back on its word and propose a complaint their prosecution.
So this memorandum of understanding is actually very simple. It means that the procuratorate understands some illegal tax evasion, because this is caused by system defects, and the new system does not pursue the old system.
The government is a guarantee that the system in this area must be improved.
After signing this contract, Wei Yingfang and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief. The crisis can be regarded as resolved, so they have the energy to think about other things, and suddenly asked Zhang Fei: "Mr. I don’t know how you deal with the complaint from the people of Jingzhao Mansion.”
Zhang Fei said: "There is no trial procedure for entering or exiting our imperial court."
Here, he turned his head to look at Su Zhe.
Su Zhe said: "The evidence provided by the people is enough to prosecute, but this is only one side's confession. We have sent people to inform the relevant officials of Jingzhao Mansion to come to Hezhong Mansion for investigation."
Of course Wei Yingfang knew about this, and asked again: "What if they don't come?"
Su Zhe said: "If they don't come, they will only suffer."
Rogue!
Wei Yingfang couldn't help cursing secretly when he heard the words, they tried not to sue, and the result was that the imperial court directly sentenced them. This move is really extremely shameless.
Yuan Jiang stood up, "Yuan has other things to deal with, so I will leave first."
His attitude on this matter is very obvious. He just cares about my business, so I won't participate.
Wei Yingfang was taken aback, a little embarrassed, and hurriedly got up to leave.
After they left, Zhang Fei suddenly said to Su Zhe: "Chief Prosecutor Su, do you still remember that we discussed the patriarchal clan of the gentry last year?"
Su Zhe nodded and said, "Of course I remember that."
Zhang Fei said: "I plan to hold a hearing with the squire of Hezhong Prefecture to clarify the responsibilities of both of us."
Su Zhe was a little surprised and said, "Can this hearing still be held like this?"
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "Of course, it's just that we are not answering the people's questions, but let the people watch how we negotiate with the gentry."
Su Zhe's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's a good idea."
These literati are not afraid of public discussion, and even enjoy it. This is the best occasion for literati to pretend to be aggressive.
Zhang Fei said: "My relationship with them is not good, so please trouble Mr. Su Xiao to contact them."
"Yes."
Su Zhe nodded, "I'll go talk to Mr. Fan."
He is not very familiar with those country gentry, but Fan Zhen is very familiar with them.
But when talking about Fan Zhen, Su Zhe seemed to think of something again, "However, everyone is busy with the issue of eliminating the household tax in Jingzhao Mansion recently, especially Mr. Fan, who is very concerned about this matter. Is this matter urgent? It’s a little bit clearer, or you can delay it later, and wait until the matter is over before holding a hearing.”
Zhang Fei said: "But the evidence in this case is solid and not complicated, and it will take some time for those officials to leave here. We can't just wait. Our imperial court still has a lot of business to deal with this year."
"That's true." Su Zhe nodded slightly, and asked again: "Do you think they will come?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Who knows."
Su Zhe smiled slightly, and said again: "That's all right, I'll talk to Mr. Fan first."
"It's time to work."
"Should be."
After Su Zhe left the imperial court, he stopped by the Legal Aid Department and informed Fan Zhen of the matter.
Fan Zhen is definitely a supporter of the squire patriarchal clan, but he also supports this hearing, because Zhang Fei does not want to abolish the squire and patriarchal clan, but to determine the responsibilities and obligations of both parties, that is, to establish clear rules.
After the previous injunction lawsuit, Fan Zhen also realized the existence of this problem. They were indeed very embarrassed at the time, but because the responsibilities and rights were not clear, the big landlords refused to admit it, so Fan Zhen readily He promised to help them contact those squires.
And during this period, the government also officially announced the new wine system and mineral system.
From the previous wine-discussing system and buying tax, it has been transformed into a government-owned shareholding system.
The reason is, of course, not to admit counsel to the Public Prosecution Law, but to be very high-spirited. The government said that due to the total income brought by the tax department and the self-declaration system, the previous liquor system could not be effectively implemented. The reason is that the big drinkers Spending money to buy wine-making rights is equivalent to paying a sum of tax money in a sense. Although the money paid in the purchase will be deducted in the self-declaration, there will still be various types of taxes when calculating income taxes. various problems.
It's not just the income from selling wine directly, but also many related interests. For example, small wine owners will give rebates to big wine owners. Is this considered wine profit? Should it be tax-exempt?
If there is no rush to buy tax, everything becomes very simple, you pay as much tax as you earn from selling wine.
In order to avoid undue losses for the big liquor owners, the government decided to release the winemaking.
As for minerals, since the government inherently owns the ownership of the mining industry, the government decided to spend 60% of it for the purchase.
Once this policy was promulgated, the people of Hezhong Mansion immediately rejoiced. All kinds of celebrations filled the streets with a strong smell of wine.
What a celebration.
Release the right to brew wine, this is simply what the people dream of. In fact, if anyone does not secretly brew a little bootleg wine, the government will not take care of it, but this is illegal after all, so there is some The evil officials used this to blackmail the people.
If you have a drink, you have to worry about your life. This life is really uncomfortable.
But now you don't have to worry about this anymore, as long as there are no more than three stoves, it's not considered bootlegging and you can drink as much as you want.
This is even more so for merchants. There are only a few who can evade the tax on buying wine. Most wine merchants want to buy wine, but they have to be oppressed, exploited, and controlled by those big wine merchants.
As far as the big drinkers are concerned, although they lose certain monopoly rights, the government loses more, and their degree of freedom is relatively higher. Moreover, they have secretly reached an agreement with the government. It will ensure a certain monopoly for itself.
The most important thing is that the public security law can ensure that in their cooperation contract with the government, they enjoy almost equal status with the government, which is very important.
During this period, Fan Zhen had been negotiating with those gentry, hoping to hold a hearing, and after several days of discussion, a result was finally reached.
Zhang Fei walked quickly to the hall, and immediately cupped his hands to Su Zhe who was standing inside, and said, "I have something to do just now, I've been delayed for a while, and Mr. Su Xiao has been waiting for a long time, I'm really sorry."
Su Zhe hurriedly said: "It's okay, I just came here for a while."
"Mr. Su Xiao, please sit down."
"Thank you"
After the two sat down, Zhang Fei saw that Su Zhe had a strange expression on his face, he seemed to hesitate to speak, and asked proactively, "What's the matter?"
Su Zhe glanced at Zhang Fei and said, "That's right, Mr. Fan has already talked to those gentry."
Zhang Fei immediately asked: "Aren't they agreeing?"
"That's not true."
Su Zhe said: "In fact, they are also very anxious now, because they think that the public security law has invaded their power and destroyed the patriarchal clan system. Negotiate in a meeting way.”
Zhang Fei frowned, and roughly guessed something, "I don't know if there is room for discussion, but this kind of hearing is actually good for both of us."
Su Zhe shook his head, "Actually, Mr. Fan and I both hope to hold a hearing so that both parties can speak clearly, but most of the country gentry are unwilling."
When he spoke, he looked a little ashamed. He also supported the patriarchal clan system, but the other party didn't dare to do this. It was obviously a guilty conscience, which made him feel very embarrassed, but even so, he still supported the patriarchal clan system , It is necessary to ensure that the imperial power does not come down to the county. In fact, this also involves the rights of scholar-bureaucrats.
"Okay!"
Zhang Fei sighed with regret, and said: "Then follow the traditional way. In fact, I just took the opportunity to promote the hearing system, not to blackmail them with the hearing. If the traditional way Talking about it will be very detrimental to them."
Su Zhe hurriedly said: "Don't be careless. Their ultimate goal is to keep their status and power. This must conflict with the public security law."
"It's fine."
Zhang Fei said: "I have my own way to deal with them, you invite them all here."
Su Zhe asked curiously, "What way?"
Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "I won't tell you, because you are on their side."
"You!"
Su Zhe was so angry and funny, he couldn't help but clasped his hands and said, "What I admire the most about Judge Zhang is his honesty."
Zhang Fei clasped his hands and said, "What I admire the most about Mr. Su Xiao is this understanding."
"Haha.!"
The two burst out laughing in unison.
Since Zhang Fei said it so easily, Su Zhe had nothing to say, and together with Fan Zhen, he invited all the gentry from Hezhong Mansion to the imperial court, a total of about a hundred people.
Not only that, but many officials from Hezhong Mansion also came. They can ignore the affairs of Jingzhao Mansion, but this matter concerns everyone's interests.
Undoubtedly, they are all on the side of the squire, and their opinions are very consistent, that is, they must ensure the rights and interests of the squire, and try their best to prevent the public prosecutor from intervening in the affairs of the village.
They are also full of confidence in this, because Zhang Fei does not want to abolish their power, but to clarify rights and obligations, and they are willing to accept rights and responsibilities, but they must maintain the village management system, and cannot be ruled by the royal family. The police came instead.
Of course, this is also the reason for their active participation. If Zhang Fei wants to abolish the patriarchal clan system, they will ignore it.
Su Zhe saw it, and was very curious about how Zhang Fei would solve this problem, because he knew that Zhang Fei definitely wanted to let the public prosecutors and the law enter the country, and would no longer rely on those things like before. squire.
But this is obviously the bottom line of the country gentry, that no matter what, the public security law cannot be allowed to enter the country, and they are already very anxious about this.
After a while, Zhang Fei finally came to the lobby, behind Long Wu and Niu Beiqing were carrying a screen.
Liang Youyi sneered and thought, he doesn't intend to teach us.
When the old man paid the tax recovery, he really escaped a catastrophe. The reason is that although the old man has a small mind and looks down on Zhang Fei, who was born in Erbi, he is not a miser. He will be decisive when it comes to choices between reputation and money. Choose reputation, don't look at him wandering around at that time, all kinds of lobbying, but he secretly paid all the taxes, which is a lot of money, which made Zhang Fei a little disappointed.
Zhang Fei is not a magnanimous person, and he keeps this account in his heart.
After exchanging pleasantries, Zhang Fei went straight to the point, and at the same time explained his idea, that is, the establishment of the township committee, and at the same time drew a picture of the power structure of the township committee and the government on the screen.
"The government attaches the most importance to the gentry, which is the role played by the gentry in the disaster relief process. Therefore, I think we can set up a township committee with Yizhuang as the center. The purpose is to determine the rights and obligations, and it will never appear again. During the litigation process, the imperial court could not find the person responsible in the township, I think this is the most basic. Therefore."
Zhang Fei spread his hands, "If everyone can't accept this, then there is nothing to talk about."
Directly showing the bottom line can give you rights, but if there is a problem, someone must take responsibility.
All the squires exchanged eye contact for a while, Lu Xiaosheng nodded and said: "This request is not too much, and it is taken for granted."
In fact, they also want to make sure that they can't control the people below just based on their moral reputation.
Liang Youyi suddenly said: "We can agree to Judge Zhang's conditions, but can Judge Zhang agree to our conditions?"
Zhang Fei asked: "Mr. Liang, but it's okay to say."
"It's a matter of village laws and laws." Liang Youyi said.
All the squires looked at Zhang Fei.
This is what they are most concerned about, because at present, the public security law is very popular in Hezhong Prefecture, and it seems that it will not be able to do it for a while, so they have to discuss how to get along with each other.
In the end, the idea is still based on the feudal system, and there is a fundamental contradiction with the public security law.
Zhang Fei said: "Recently, I have carefully studied the township laws of various townships, and they are completely complementary to the laws. For example, the township laws of Yongquan Township, one of which prohibits drinking alcohol. Although the law does not stipulate that drinking is illegal, but There is no rule that drinking alcohol cannot be prohibited. Of course, from a legal point of view, drinking alcohol will never violate the law.
But what I want to say is that many township laws are just local customs, prohibiting behaviors that are not prohibited by the law, and few of them directly contradict the law. For example, if the law stipulates that murder is a crime, the township law cannot stipulate Murder is not guilty, it can be seen that the latter is a complementary relationship with the former. I can fully support the township law, as long as you take it to the imperial court to report it. If there are villagers who come here to sue, I will focus on the township law.
Let's talk about the drinking example again, the law allows drinking, but the village law of Yongquan Township does not allow it, if a villager from Yongquan Township comes to the imperial court to sue, saying that the township committee will punish him for drinking , I must dismiss his lawsuit according to the township law. "
After these words, Su Zhe and the others looked at Zhang Fei in surprise.
This concession is huge!
This is quite different from what they expected, and it doesn't even look like what Zhang Fei did.
Including many country gentry, the happiness came so quickly, they just found it incredible!
Only Cao Dongdong dozed off there, he was not very interested in this matter, but he had to be present, after all, this matter was closely related to the police station, fortunately Fu Shichun next to him was listening carefully.
Liang Youyi is very cautious, this kid is too cunning, he stroked his beard and said: "Since we are going to report to the imperial court, then the imperial court can also use this to interfere with our village law."
The rest of the squires also nodded.
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "If it's just a supplement and there is no direct conflict with the law, then I can guarantee that there will be no problems. Moreover, if you don't come to report, how can I dismiss their lawsuit? "
Many people nodded their heads one after another. In fact, some villages have taken the initiative to report to the government. The imperial court has to make a judgment according to the law. If you don't report it, how can you follow the law!
Is all this true? Liang Youyi was a little confused when he heard this, when did this kid become so reasonable.
Zhang Fei said again: "But there is one thing I want to explain."
I know it's not that simple. Everyone immediately became vigilant. Lu Xiaosheng said: "President Zhang, please tell me."
Zhang Fei said: "First of all, the customs in different places are different, and I don't know, so how to establish the village law, you can decide for yourself, just report to the imperial court, because the imperial court has to have a basis, but we The imperial court only looked at the law of the country, not the people, so the law of the country should be treated equally.
Let's talk about the township law that prohibits drinking. If someone is punished for drinking and comes here to file a complaint, I will dismiss it, but if someone comes to report, no matter who the opponent is, he must also be punished.
Although I am the president of the judge, if I break the law, then I have to be tried. The reason is the same, which is also reasonable. "
After these words, the entire lobby was silent.
After Su Zhe heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he secretly exclaimed in his heart, this move is really wonderful.
Cai Yanqing and Yuan Jiang looked at each other tacitly, as if to say, this kid is really a ghost!
But seeing the subtle expressions of those gentry, they were all silent.
Liang Youyi opened his mouth several times, but there was no sound.
Seeing that no one answered, Zhang Fei said, "Is what I said wrong? If you have any opinions, you can raise them."
No one opened their mouths.
Fan Zhen blushed, but he was just a matchmaker, he had no right to make decisions for the squires in Hezhong Mansion.
Zhang Fei asked again: "What do you guys mean?"
What do you mean?
Are you embarrassed to ask?
Do you know what privilege is?
But this can only be understood, not conveyed in words, because the patriarchal system originally requires everyone to abide by it, but the legislator is the law enforcer, and of course it is impossible to treat everyone equally. Being supervised by the Public Procuratorate does not mean that the Public Procuratorate interferes with the township law.
In the end, Lu Xiaosheng nodded first and said, "It should be so."
After holding it in for so long, his face turned red. If he didn't agree to this condition, it would be very embarrassing!
Zhang Fei, however, was relentless, looking at the others, "Everyone...?"
The rest of the squires also nodded.
Zhang Fei smiled slightly and said, "Then I have no other requirements. In fact, I made this point specifically for the purpose of acting according to the law in the future. If I don't make it clear, it may cause misunderstanding."
Everyone paid no attention to him.
This time, he was really cheated. Who would have thought that he would make such an extremely normal request after making such a big compromise.
Zhang Fei glanced at their bereaved expressions, the corners of his mouth twitched, he almost laughed out loud, and said: "Then that's it, if you have no other requirements."
Liang Youyi nodded and said, "Let's do this first."
There is really nothing to talk about.
This is terrible!
After that, the squires got up and left.
"What?"
Cao Dongdong rubbed his eyes, looked left and right, "Is this the end?"
Zhang Fei smiled and asked, "You're awake!"
Cao Dongdong scratched his head in embarrassment, and complained to Fu Shichun in a low voice: "You also said that this meeting may take a long time to discuss."
Fu Shichun was a little embarrassed and said: "I don't know."
"It's better to end early."
Cao Dongdong said again: "Anyway, we have all asked for leave. Let's go for a walk and find a place to drink. Zhang San, are you going?"
Zhang Fei said: "You go, I still have something to deal with."
"All right, Xiaochun, let's find Xiaoma."
Cao Dongdong pulled Fu Shichun and left, while going out, he asked, "What did you just say?"
Fu Shichun said: "From now on, our police station will be very busy."
Cao Dongdong nodded straightly and said: "This is a good thing, I'm afraid I'm too idle. Recently, the people are busy doing business, and I can't meet a thief for a long time. It's really boring."
"???"
Hearing Cao Dongdong's complaint, Su Zhe smiled helplessly, and then said to Zhang Fei: "I, like Ya Nei, did not expect it to end so soon."
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "I said it would be even more unfavorable for them to talk in this way."
Su Zhe chuckled: "Your idea is really wonderful, and Su Mou is also very impressed. Based on this, it is estimated that the rural laws of many villages will become insignificant, at most limited to some local customs, and in the end it is completely Let the law prevail.”
It is human nature to be strict with others and to be lenient with oneself.
When the country law has restrictions on them, the gentry will not dare to make it too strict. Even if they are willing, the big landowners in the village will not be willing.
According to what Zhang Fei said, no matter how you establish them, you must treat them equally, so if someone reports them for violating the township law, the imperial court will definitely decide for them.
Just like prohibiting drinking alcohol, can everyone obey it?
The big landlord hides in the deep house and drinks a little, who knows, you can't say anything about him, but if the people drink it, they will definitely be reported.
The key imperial court can still euphemistically say, defending the village law.
It can only be canceled, which is really too harsh.
In this way, the law will be filled in, and the power of the gentry will be bound.
Zhang Fei said: "But I didn't do it on purpose, but the public security law requires us to do this. I just explained this to them first, so as to avoid misunderstandings when I get it."
Su Zhe said: "It couldn't be better."
Ferry!
"The next official has met Lu Zhifu."
Guo Gang, who went back and forth again, came to the post station next to the ferry again.
Lu Gongru said: "Did they receive the summons from the procuratorate?"
"Yes." Guo Gang nodded: "But they all expressed dissatisfaction."
"Not convinced?" Lu Gongru asked in surprise.
Guo Gang said: "The reason why the imperial court handed over the judicial power of Shaanxi Road to Chief Judge Zhang is to allow him to build a public security law on Shaanxi Road. Since they have not established a public security law in Jingzhaofu, we should not be under the control of the public security law. After all, the two systems are too different, we don’t have the Royal Police, we don’t have the Procuratorate, but we have to be bound by this, which is really unfair to us.”
Lu Gongru stroked his beard, nodded and said, "That makes sense."
But while speaking, he said again: "But if you say that, then the chief judge may send someone to Jingzhao Prefecture to establish a public prosecutor's law."
Guo Gang said: "He is following orders, we can't stop him whether we want to or not!"
A smile flashed in Lu Gongru's eyes, "That's true. Well, I'll talk to President Zhang and the others again."
Guo Gang hastily cupped his fists and said, "Thank you, Prefect Lu."
Nearly 9,000 words to make up for yesterday's leave, and to say sorry again. . . .
