Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 751
[Chapter 726]
the matter of the upright official’s court discussion, quickly spread throughout Zhongjing like a gust of wind. Discuss state affairs with a serious face.
Everyone knew that when Chen Luo took office as Minister of Law, there would definitely be new ideas, but they didn’t expect the new ideas to come so quickly.
The people of Daxuan are procuratorates?
It is the first time that the name of the yamen is crowned with the words “Daxuan people”.
What kind of department is this?
Everyone was waiting with curiosity and anticipation for more details about this yamen.
…
“Huh!”
In an official mansion, the old man sitting in the guest seat snorted coldly, looked at Xu Qian who was drinking tea calmly in the main seat, and said angrily: “Master Xu, why is Yushitai not on the court hall?” Protest?”
“Let that An Guogong calmly expose the matter of the reform of the poor family!”
“Do you know how much the old man and the family behind the old man have paid for providing so many cases?”
Xu Qian looked at it with some disgust. Glancing at the other party, he quickly withdrew his eyes and said, “I am the censor of the imperial court, not the censor of your aristocratic and holy clan !
”
What you said is reasonable, so I agree with you, and think that the bias should indeed be reformed.”
“But what Chen Xiang said in today’s court is also reasonable. The reform of the poor family will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.”
“Since he proposed a solution I think you might as well take a look at the proposal.”
“I’m very interested in the Metropolitan Procuratorate he proposed.”
The old man frowned: “Xu Qian! Don’t forget, you are the son of a noble family! ”
Xu Qian put down his teacup, looked at the other party, and said solemnly: “I am also the censor of Daxuan, the speaker of the court!”
The old man was taken aback, and then sneered twice: “Okay, very good!
” I wish you a prosperous career!” After saying
that, the old man stood up and walked away.
Looking at the old man’s back, Xu Qian was silent for a moment, then looked in the direction of the leaning place.
Chen Xiang, can you see this muddy water?
…
At the same time, the old man who was in contact with Xu Qian got into the carriage and left Xu Qian’s mansion. ”How unreasonable!” The old man was sitting in the carriage, still
aggrieved, “This Xu Qian, dare to talk to this old man like that!”
“Go back and let your adults teach you a lesson!”
He noticed that there were two pairs of eyes staring at his carriage.
“Sister, what are you talking about? Bury first?”
“No hurry, follow. If you have any accomplices, let’s bury them together.”
“Yes!”
After a brief exchange, the pair of figures followed closely Behind the carriage.
…
On the other side, Chen Luo returned to his mansion.
The former Wan’anbo mansion was taken by Chen Luo to act as the editorial department of “Daxuanmin Daily”, so when Chen Luo agreed to take over as Minister of Law, the imperial court rebuilt an An Guogong mansion in another place for the public. Chen Luo lives.
The old housekeeper Lu Tong had brought the six little gourd babies who stayed in Zhongjing to take care of them, so Chen Luo didn’t feel any strangeness.
After playing around with the six little ones for a while, I passed on to them a method of cultivating the grass and tree goblins that the Qinglong Emperor had brought from him, and let them practice on their own.
Xiao Qi couldn’t escape either, this time Chen Luo’s letter to Luo Hongnu specifically said that he would bring Xiao Qi back together.
Humph, don’t think wild, school has started!
After lunch, Chen Luo walked into the study.
Time to get down to business.
Chen Luo condensed his mind, sat at the desk, and spread out the paper.
For Chen Luo, it is not difficult to obtain the power of heaven, as long as he writes the strange text of heaven.
However, this time the article must be in line with the principle of “the Metropolitan Procuratorate” proposed by him, and at the same time, it must have the approval of public opinion.
Isn’t this…
quite simple?
The so-called Metropolitan Procuratorate, to put it bluntly, means that people sue officials, officials investigate officials, use power to supervise power, and use power to sanction power.
Therefore, the key word is: overturn the verdict!
There shouldn’t be too many stories like this in Chen Luo’s dreamland flower forest, and after Chen Luo entered the flower forest, he directly chose the most ruthless one—
“Earth, you don’t know what is good or what is evil!”
” My God, you are wrong to be a virtuous and foolish man!”
“Moving Heaven and Earth Dou E’s Injustice”!
…
“The Injustice of Dou E”, which is called “The Injustice of Dou E” for short, is one of the most eye-catching achievements of Chen Luo in the vast and bright cultural river of the big oriental country before Chen Luo traveled. The hand of dramatist Guan Hanqing.
Chen Luo savored the manuscript in his mind carefully, and he seemed to be able to feel the mournful wailing from that manuscript. He dipped his pen in the ink and started writing.
It is said that Dou E’s mother died since she was a child, and her father sold the seven-year-old Dou E to Cai as a child bride-in-law in order to go to Beijing for the exam in exchange for money. Ten years later, Dou E married Cai’s son, but within two years Cai’s son died of illness, and only Cai and Dou E were left to depend on each other.
A local gangster named Zhang Lver forced Cai to marry his father, and then threatened Dou E to marry him, but Dou E refused.
Zhang Lv’er held a grudge, and came up with a poisonous plan. That is to frame Dou E for poisoning her mother-in-law, and use this excuse to force Dou E to marry her. Unexpectedly, there was an accident on the way, and Mrs. Cai didn’t drink the poison, but Zhang Lv’er’s father drank it instead. Naturally, he died!
After writing this, Chen Luo paused.
In the original work, the judge is the magistrate, fatuous, incompetent, and greedy. Chen Luo changed this role to the local magistrate of Kaifeng.
When a person died, the Six Doors would naturally investigate, and Zhang Lver planted the spoils on Dou E’s head. Zhang Lv’er bribed the Kaifeng government order, and the government order transferred the case directly on the grounds that Zhang Lv’er provided key evidence. The chief arrester of the six gates didn’t want to offend the Kaifeng government order because of this incident, so he let him go.
This is also a common situation that Chen Luo saw from the report papers in the two wooden boxes provided by Xu Qian in the court hall, which further highlights the connection between the six doors and Kaifeng Mansion. That’s why the idea of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to intervene was born.
The Kaifeng government decree who took Dou E into custody ordered torture to extract a confession, intending to beat Dou E into a trick and close the case as soon as possible.
Well, after all, I am a minister of law, and I scold myself in the article, so there is no problem at all.
Chen Luo sighed softly, I know, I know, this will damage the reputation of Kaifeng Mansion, but for the sake of the upcoming Metropolitan Procuratorate, I will bear it for a while, after all, Kaifeng Mansion is an older brother.
Don’t worry, the palms and backs of your hands are full of meat, and your blessings are yet to come!
Chen Luo comforted himself and continued writing.
After this, the story completely entered the rhythm of tragedy.
Although Dou E was weak, she never dared to plead guilty to the crime of poisoning her mother-in-law, and she was unwilling to commit suicide. That donkey came up with another poisonous plan, claiming that if she did not plead guilty, then the person who poisoned his father would be Mrs. Cai.
Dou E was filial and knew that Mrs. Cai was too old to stand the torture, so she confessed wrongly and accepted the case. The Kaifeng government order quickly sentenced Dou E to death and escorted her to the execution ground.
Before leaving, Dou E was full of grief and indignation, resenting heaven and earth, and before execution, she swore three poisonous oaths based on her innocence.
One: the blood does not fall from the head, and the blood flies up to two feet, soaking Bailian; the
second: the snow in June covers the corpse;
the third: three years of severe drought in Chuzhou!
Subsequently, the executioner raised his knife and fell.
Pitiful for a beautiful head, it tumbles down; it’s a pity for a loyal and filial daughter to die!
…
After writing here, Chen Luo stopped writing again.
Absolutely don’t want to break the chapter here!
Because from here, Chen Luo will pave the way for the “Double Procuratorate”.
In the original book, Dou E’s three vows come true one by one, and at this time, the father Dou Tianzhang who once sold Dou E for money has also become an official. He was complained by Dou E’s soul and knew Dou E’s grievances , rushed to Chuzhou, reversed the case for Dou E, and made Dou E wronged.
At the end of this paragraph, there is still no escape from the rut of interpersonal relationships. The person who finally solved the problem was Dou E’s father, who made the entire unjust case personal and accidental, and did not solve this problem institutionally.
This is also a problem in the Daxuan legal system today.
Therefore, Chen Luo made some adjustments.
Dou Tianzhang obtained his fame and wanted to visit his daughter, but learned about his daughter’s tragedy from other people. Dou Tianzhang wrote this matter into a memorial, taking the tragedy of his daughter as an example, criticizing the law enforcement and judiciary for collusion, disregarding human life, which caused shock in the court. The Prime Minister of the court proposed the establishment of the Metropolitan Procuratorate to solve this problem, which was unanimously approved by the court.
Subsequently, the Metropolitan Procuratorate was established, and the newly appointed Superintendent of the Metropolitan Procuratorate designated Dou E’s case as the first case of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. injustice!
This is the end of the story of “The Injustice of Dou E”.
“Justice overdue!” Chen Luo finally sighed. Many people would say that justice overdue is not justice at all. After all, the damage has already been done, and the victim’s loss may never be recovered.
But Chen Luo didn’t think so. The salvation of the law was not punishment, but death. In Dou E’s injustice, Dou E is dead, and nothing can be done; but the meaning of justice carried by the Metropolitan Procuratorate is to minimize the emergence of new Dou E in the future
…
Chen Luo put down his pen, and the “Dou E” The manuscript of Injustice just lay quietly on the table without any movement. For this, Chen Luo is not surprised. With the experience of “The Romance of the West Chamber”, Chen Luo naturally knows that the spirit of the book in “The Injustice of Dou E” will not appear until it is performed on the stage.
But…
Could this book spirit be Dou E’s grievance, able to convey the grievances of all places?
Thinking about it this way, I still have some expectations.
After sorting out the manuscript of “The Injustice of Dou E”, Chen Luo stretched his waist and stayed awake for several days, but he was still a little tired after all. So Chen Luo went straight back to the bedroom and fell asleep.
…
Lingzhou.
Qingshen Mansion is located in the southwest of Lingzhou. The mountains are Cui Wei and the mountains are continuous. It is jokingly called Xiaonanhuang. Although the government has been established, there are no counties under its jurisdiction and the population is not large. The population of the entire government may be about the same as that of a county government in the hinterland of the Central Plains.
But it is this Qingshen Mansion, every autumn and winter, there are countless scholars who go to this place like a pilgrimage.
Because this is the location of the famous “Buren Academy”.
“Buren Academy”, which means “the way of heaven is not benevolent, treats all things as dogs”, although it is a Taoist statement, it was greatly appreciated by the founder of this academy, so it was directly decided.
No one dared to criticize this decision.
Because the founder, whose surname is Xun and first name is Kuang, is called Xunzi by people, and he is honored as the post-sage.
It was here that Xunzi proposed the concept of “law”, opened up a road of Confucian legal studies, and taught students like Han Fei and Li Si.
Since the establishment of the Buren Academy, countless legal experts have come out, and the closest big names are Song Ci, who was conferred a saint a few months ago, and Cheng Nansong, who has now been transferred to the position of military minister!
In the minds of all students who seek the Dharma, this is the holy place for academic study. Unlike other academies who always choose to start school on a sunny day, the opening date of Buren Academy is in autumn and winter.
Autumn and winter chills are a good time for law enforcement!
At this very moment, a fierce debate is unfolding in the square of Buren Academy. Two teams of students are going back and forth around a bizarre case, citing classics and arguing about the division of responsibility.
This is the stage for the graduating students of Buren Academy every year. They will choose some controversial cases that have already occurred, re-examine and simulate the punishment based on the evidence that has been disclosed.
And this kind of punishment is often accompanied by the presence of personnel from the Yifa Hall. If the final conclusion reached by the student is contrary to the conclusion that has already been punished, it will be recorded and reported back.
Because of this, many unjust cases have been taken seriously, and their injustices have been exonerated. Therefore, such debates have also been called “little blue sky debates” by the people.
This year’s “Little Blue Sky Controversy” was particularly lively, because with Song Ci’s canonization, forensic science was officially recognized by the court and was eligible to be presented as evidence in court. Many cases in the past have become suspicious cases pending retrial because of the latest evidence from the autopsy.
Right now, the “Little Qingtian Controversy” has entered a fierce four-in-two stage. After all, four people only take the top three.
All the students came one after another, and those great Confucian scholars also sat down one after another, waiting for the start of the four-in-two debate, but among the great Confucian seats, there was a seat that was empty, which was extremely conspicuous.
“Isn’t Chen Gongbi here again?” A great scholar glanced at the empty seat and whispered.
“Hey, two of these four people are his disciples! Are you here?” Another person said.
“Forget it, it’s not that you don’t know about his situation.” A female scholar sighed, “He has never been interested in such occasions.”
Hearing this, several other scholars seemed to remember the sigh.
“I heard that the previous minister of law wanted Gongbi to succeed him, but he was persuaded by the old mountain chief and appointed Song Sheng instead. That’s why Mr. Gongbi resigned and returned to Buren Academy?” a scholar asked softly.
“Where did you hear the words out of context!” The female scholar frowned and explained, “It’s Gongbi who has a problem with his own holy way. After talking with Lao Shanzhang all night, he resigned and came back to find a solution. Way.”
“He once said that if he follows his holy way, it’s hard to say whether Feng Sheng will be successful, but he will definitely follow in the footsteps of Lord Shang!”
Everyone sighed insignificantly when they heard the words in one breath.
“Unfortunately, when I came back, I was still in the state of seeking, and now I am not advancing but retreating, and I have fallen into the second
rank.” “Forget it, let’s not talk about him.” The female scholar seemed unwilling to let Chen Gongbi be discussed by everyone, so she changed the subject and said, “The two disciples he taught this time are not bad, maybe they can win the championship. Who do you like?”
“Kuang Zhong. The old man has also taught him for a while, and his senses are very good.”
“I thought it was Kuang Zhong, the other … Sigh, he is indeed a genius who meets once in five hundred years, but he and Brother Gongbi seem to be carved out of the same bone. The holy way he pursues is too pure, like a divine sword, but… just too easy to break! ”
Otherwise. Do you know what that kid’s name is?” Another great scholar chuckled lightly, shook his head and said, “Gang Feng!”
“Hai Rui, Hai Gangfeng!”
…
“Grandfather, Senior Brother Kuang Do you really not want to watch the debate with Senior Brother Hai?” In a hut in Buren Academy, a boy fiddled with the fire to boil water, looking at the old man who was dozing on a wooden chair, and asked.
The old man waved his hand: “I won’t go.”
“Why?” Holding the teapot, the boy made a cup of tea and handed it to the old man.
The old man opened his eyes slightly, looked at the little boy in front of him, and smiled faintly: “You are still young, you don’t understand.”
The little boy pouted: “Hmph, who said I don’t understand.”
“It’s Grandpa who thinks that the law of the world is incomplete. It’s like clothes. There is such a big hole in there. No matter how beautiful the clothes are, they are all rags. They don’t look good and they don’t keep warm, right?” the
old man heard . Yan was startled for a moment, then sat up and asked, “How do you know?”
Seeing the old man’s face turning serious, the little boy quickly said, “I didn’t say it, I heard it from Senior Brother Kuang.” The
old man opened his mouth, Sighing, he nodded: “Senior Kuang is right.”
Hearing the old man’s affirmation, the little boy became more interested, and said, “Senior Brother Hai also said, Grandpa, you shouldn’t have retired at the beginning. Can’t stop. When you are Shang Jun, you will be Shang Jun, and you always plead for the people!” Hearing this, the
old man was not angry, but just smiled lightly, touched the boy’s head, and said, “Your senior brother Hai also said That’s right!”
“It’s just… the real world, there is no black and white.”
“Your grandfather didn’t have the ability to reconcile yin and yang, so he had to run back.”
After finishing speaking, he looked in the direction of the square and said to himself Said: “Yes. This is also the last time they will argue about a case without any hesitation.”
“The old man should go and have a look.”
Hearing the old man’s words, the little boy’s eyes lit up, and he quickly took the old man’s hand: “It’s true.” Is it right? Grandpa, let’s go there now…” The
old man stood up slowly, and said, “Why are you in a hurry? Brother Kuang and Brother Hai must be the last two, so we have time…”
At this moment, a The blue bird flew into the grass stove.
“Huh?” The old man was stunned for a moment, who would send him a letter?
The little boy jumped up and down to fetch the blue bird, took off the letter paper at the foot of the blue bird, and handed it to the old man.
“Grandpa, here!” The
old man opened the letterhead, and the familiar characters came into view—
“Brother Gongbi, Zhan Xinjia!
”
“Today’s letter is to implore my elder brother to come out of the mountain, return to the side, and help a junior. This person may be able to answer my elder brother’s doubts about the Holy Way!”
“My elder brother must have heard of this man. , Chen Luoye. A few days ago, please play the Lidu Procuratorate…”
Chen Gongbi looked down at the letter carefully.
“Chen Luo’s body is the hope of the Legalists. Although he looks like the sky, he also has the help of a half-sage, but things that are biased are like a mess. Many aristocratic and holy families are eyeing him.”
“This son of Chen Luo is generous and sincere. Fearing being tricked , I asked my elder brother to come out of the mountain and help me.”
“Brother, Cheng Nansong!”
Chen Gongbi closed the letter and looked in the direction of Zhongjing.
In his eyes, he seemed to see a young talent who was helpless in the face of the storm.
Just like back then, after he had a long talk with Lao Shan, he was at a loss as to what to do in the face of the darkness in front of him.
“The Metropolitan Procuratorate?”
“The hope of the Legalists?”
“Forget it, the old bones can be a paddle for young people, and it’s worth it.”
Chen Gongbi let out a long breath, looked at the little boy, and said, “Let’s go, let’s go.” Look at the duel between your brothers.”
“In the future, we still have to rely on them.” The
little boy quickly took Chen Gongbi’s hand and walked out of the thatched cottage.
…
Zhongjing, Anguo Gongfu.
When Chen Luo opened his eyes, he saw a face that was both happy and angry. The other person was sitting on the head of his bed, flipping through the manuscript.
“Hong Nu?” Chen Luo woke up, “When did you come?”
Luo Hong Nu looked at Chen Luo with a smile and said, “Not long after I arrived, I saw that you were still asleep, son, so I didn’t dare to wake you up. ”
Speaking, Luo Hongnu looked at the manuscript in his hand again, and said: “When the servant was cleaning the house, I glanced at the manuscript and couldn’t hold back.”
“Young Master, is this “The Injustice of Dou E That Moves the Earth” to be entrusted to us to perform?”
Chen Luo nodded, sat up from the bed, and said, “How long will it take for the rehearsal?”
Luo Hongnu slightly After thinking about it, he said, “If the servant girl plays this Dou E, she will be on stage in three days!” Chen Luo
was overjoyed: “Okay, just three days!”
“Lu Tong!”
Chen Luo called out, and a moment later the housekeeper Lu Tong pushed Entering the door, he saluted and said, “Grandpa, what are your orders?”
“Call all the editors of “Da Xuan Min Bao”.”
“I have new arrangements!”
After the chapter was published yesterday, a teacher Sent me a message.
The information said that I was wrong about the explanation of the poor family. In the history books, there has never been a book describing the poor family as a poor family. In fact, it is the common people class. It is a kind of misunderstanding formed on the Internet to attract people’s attention and spread rumors.
In “Three Kingdoms·Jiang Biao Biography”, it was mentioned that when Sun Quan granted Zhou Tai the title, he told Zhou Tai to “don’t withdraw from a poor family” (don’t shrink back just because you are from a poor family), and Zhou Tai came from a poor family and had been a bandit , and later joined the army…
well, probably so.
I just want to know, who the hell told him it was my book, why did he keep chasing after it. . .
I obviously did a good job of keeping it secret! ! !
I now suspect that he is spying on my book friend group! ! ! ! !
Society is dead. .
