Zhenguan Wenzong System

Chapter 357

What kind of scene is the excitement of the crowd? Every day there are scholars petitioning in the Ministry of Justice and Dali Temple, every day there are literati yelling and scolding in front of these princes' mansions, every day there are students discussing in various teahouses and restaurants in Chang'an City.

An action called Purge Gangji swept across Chang'an in an instant.

It's just that in the era of scarcity, literati are the posters of farmers.Many people believe what the scholars say.Three people can become a tiger, not to mention hundreds of scholars, leading thousands of ordinary people.

"Pa", in the Taiji Hall, Li Chengqian took a memorial on the table.

"You tell me, what should we do about this matter?" Li Chengqian, who was full of anger, glared at the silent ministers under his rank. "Didn't you talk a lot before? Tell me now, what should we do about this matter?"

In fact, there is no way to quickly appease the public anger. Pulling out those honorable children one by one and dealing with them severely will surely make the people applaud.And it can also suppress the growing momentum of the scholars.

However, no one is willing to say such offensive words.

That's dozens of dukes. If you talk about it individually, those who can participate in the court meeting at this moment can be equal to them.But the addition of dozens is no longer as simple as the number.These nobles also have good ministers and a network of relationships woven by blood in-laws.

If such a force is integrated, it must not be ignored.

Otherwise, Li Chengqian would not have easily deprived Luo Yan of the right to adjudicate the case just because of a few words that those ministers did not explain.

Its purpose is not to divide and transform.

Therefore, it is simply impossible to do things that please both ends.The buffer of interests has always been a matter of mutual benefit and coexistence. One side benefits and the other suffers losses. How can it last for a long time.

Li Chengqian was at a loss as to how to deal with this matter next.

However, things can't be dragged on because of helplessness.Because finally one day, things can't be dragged on.

As the culprit, the Liu family was the main target of scolding by the scholars.For three days in a row, the servants of the Liu family were scolded to the point that they dared not go out.Originally, there was a lot of food in the mansion, so it was no problem for the servants to eat.

But the Liu family, who had always been accustomed to fine clothes and rich food, felt a little bit stuck.The solar terms in July are the time when all kinds of fresh vegetables are on the market, and the corresponding melons and fruits are also at the right time.At this time in previous years, wealthy families who are tired of eating chicken, duck and fish will also buy a lot of vegetables to supplement.

Some time ago, the Liu family was still immersed in this kind of diet.

But for the past three days, people have blocked the door, and the servants can't go out to buy things—the front and rear doors are blocked.

Stored vegetables are also only eaten for a day and then gone.

Life is like falling from heaven to hell in an instant. Anyone who lives a life with enough food but no food will feel sick after eating for one day, vomit after eating for two days, and feel sorry for eating for three days. Anorexic.

The indifference in the mouth turned into anger in the heart.When restlessness burns in the heart, accidents are about to happen.

The Patriarch of the Liu family finally couldn't bear it any longer. When he heard the yelling and cursing outside the mansion again that day, he pulled up the servants, brought all the sticks, opened the middle door, and rushed out of the mansion to beat him.

Coming here to scold is out of spirit, but it's not worthwhile if you want to suffer.Therefore, the scholars who shouted and scolded were scattered by the head of the Liu family with his servants, or in a decent way, they were strategically transferred.

If things can be solved by brute force, I am afraid that everyone is more willing to use this simple and crude method.Because it can save a lot of trouble.

At this time, the Patriarch of the Liu family had such thoughts. Satisfied, he asked his servants to go to the market to buy a large amount of wine, meat and vegetables, and delivered them to the back chef to cook a good banquet. It is to enjoy it contentedly.

However, often this crude method will lead to even greater troubles.

The head of the Liu family was dazzled by his victory, but he forgot that he was facing a group of guys who used pens and mouths as weapons.Cold violence is the real lethality of this group of people. As for the beating just now, it is a gentleman who uses his mouth but not his hands.

Since the Liu family is not reasonable, then scholars should go to the reasonable place to reason.

The three provinces are all in the Taiji Palace, so no one disturbs them, but the six government offices are all outside the Taiji Palace, so naturally they were poisoned by the scholars.

This time, the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple are not limited.But all the yamen with some real power in the court were surrounded by petition groups of scholars.A large number of petitions are piled higher and higher in front of these government offices.

Finally it was the turn of these ministers to sit still.

When the new day's court meeting began, several ministers, mainly from the Ministry of Punishment, asked Li Chengqian to send another person to deal with the matter strictly.Moreover, the Liu family's bullying has to be explained to Shihlin.

This time it was Li Chengqian's turn to be silent.

Li Chengqian didn't want to do this either, but now it's really hard to find someone who can really try this matter.So until now, we can only use one procrastination word. After a long silence, Li Chengqian finally said: "For the time being, publish the announcement first, and the court will uphold justice in this matter. But Dali Temple made a mistake in the trial before, and it is not competent to re-trial. In the end Who will preside over this matter needs to be carefully considered."

The words are quite tactful, but everyone knows that Li Chengqian is also sitting on wax at the moment.

This candidate is hard to find.

But the result is already very clear, those noble children will definitely not be able to escape severe punishment.

Li Chengqian's method naturally had a certain effect-at least from the day the announcement was posted, the scholars no longer besieged the various government offices.But everyone knows that they are watching.In the end, if the result does not satisfy them, the matter will still have to be troubled.

And all the nobles panicked at this time.

To be honest, they found a lot of connections in Dai Zhou's previous trial of the case.Being able to influence Dai Zhou's decision naturally puts a lot of pressure on him.So, in the end they were very happy to see their son back home.

However, according to Li Chengqian, the case will be tried again, and the result must be severe.

What is strict and severe, that is, the criminal law clearly states how much crime can be punished, and how much crime should be sentenced.

Originally, they didn't understand these things, but secretly asked someone to ask the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.These people are unwilling to get involved in their affairs, precisely because in their hearts, this is the only way to deal with this matter.Other than that, there is no other way.

Those dukes who apologized to Luo Yan before couldn't help thinking of Luo Yan's kindness.

If Luo Yan could be allowed to preside over this matter back then, there would be no embarrassment at this time.Too late to regret.Thinking that each of these teenagers will be exiled for at least five hundred miles, their parents will cry.

On the third day after Li Chengqian ordered the publication of the announcement, Hou Xun Sheng invited himself into the palace to meet Li Chengqian.

"If you came to intercede, I can only tell you, and there is nothing I can do." Facing the mournful Xun Shenghou, Li Chengqian replied coldly.

It's not that Li Chengqian doesn't want to make friends with these nobles.But thinking about the consequences of doing so and weighing the pros and cons, he could only express his attitude to Xun Shenghou from the very beginning.In this way, the idea of ​​these honorable pleadings can be cut off.

Laughing wryly, Hou Xun Sheng bowed to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, I have not disciplined him properly, causing the dog to be domineering. The punishment now is what I deserve. I came here to plead guilty to Your Highness."

"That's all. This matter has nothing to do with you. It's inevitable for young people to be a little impulsive. Even I often get confused. This time I think it's nothing more than exile. I'll be in control. When I come back from Amnesty, I will be a new person." That's right." Li Chengqian looked at Xun Shenghou's age, so respectful to himself, his tone softened.

Seeing that Li Chengqian was finally a little loose, Xun Shenghou bowed again: "Your Highness, I would like to implore Your Highness to let Cheng Guogong come out to try this matter."

Li Chengqian was a little sensitive, and immediately looked at Xun Shenghou with sharp eyes after listening.

With a wry smile, Xun Shenghou said: "Your Highness, I don't know. I was taken to Tianranju by Cheng Guogong that day. The agreed result is that the dog will be fined to guard the city for half a year."

"What?" Li Chengqian exclaimed.

The sons of the rich and powerful guard the city, and there is no need to be exiled at all.

You must know that there is a saying in the army-it is better to be a frontier army than to defend the city.What does this mean? Although the frontier army is poor and it is easy to fight with neighboring countries, freedom is the victory, and every battle can make military exploits.

But what about the defenders?No military registration, rain or shine, and being looked down upon by others, there is no credit for it.

Comparing the two phases, everyone can understand the pros and cons.

"That's right, what Cheng Guogong promised me is to stay in Chang'an, and let me wait and take care of him nearby, but within half a year, there will be no favoritism." Xun Shenghou smiled wryly: "Who knows that we have agreed On the second day, he was replaced by His Highness."

Xun Shenghou only had to say, if he knew that things would turn out like this, he might as well have let Luo Yan come.

After Li Chengqian listened, he was taken aback for a moment, then nodded: "Yes, I see."

Xun Shenghou knew that Li Chengqian needed to think about it at this time. After all, he had to go back on his word after only a few days, which made Li Chengqian very embarrassed, so he retreated very wisely.

The next day, news spread from the court that more than 20 princes involved in the case successively asked Luo Yan to preside over the trial.But until now, Li Chengqian still has not given a clear answer.

This news shocked Shilin Zhizhi.

The previous mixed news made them not trust Luo Yan a little.At this time, since there are so many princes asking Luo Yan to come out to preside over the trial, could there be some shady things in it?
