After coming out of the palace, Zhang Fei saw that it was already afternoon, so he did not go to the procuratorate. After all, he had just drunk a little wine, and he didn't want to care about those trivial matters, so he went straight home.
"Saburo is back."
Niu Beiqing, who was lying in a lump to enjoy the cool, stood up slowly when he saw Zhang Fei getting off the carriage.
Zhang Fei asked with a smile: "Daniu, can you guard the house while lying like this?"
Long Wu said, "He relies on his looks to scare people, not his skills."
Niu Beiqing was furious when he heard this and said, "Xiao Wu, if you have the courage, let's go and compete some other day."
Long Wu turned his head away and said calmly: "I don't know how to fight."
"you...."
Niu Beiqing had just said one word when he saw Zhang Fei walking towards the gate. He suddenly seemed to remember something and hurriedly chased after him, "Sanlang, that...that Sima scholar is here."
"Where?" Zhang Fei asked.
...
...
Meng Gansheng nodded.
"More of that."
Fu Bi said, "We can't let Zhang Ba go to the Legislative Council to explain the definition of the tax law. As for the collective responsibility law, yes, he didn't expect that when the public security, procuratorate and court try the crimes of Commander Xie Liuwu and others, they will also face the collective responsibility law. According to your dynasty's system, if there are no officials who are corrupt or accept bribes, the person who recommended them will also be punished."
Qu Liangjiang said: "In fact, these seven have nothing to do with the monarch. If the tax is defined as evil, how can the monarch's benevolence be demonstrated? If the law of collective responsibility is abolished, how can the monarch's power be demonstrated?"
"He...his words are so weak that he is simply hopeless."
Zhang Feidao nodded and said, "This method is feasible, but it must be used flexibly. We still know that it will be affected by the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems in many aspects."
The contradictions in the Song Dynasty at this time were actually very serious. Land annexation was very minor. The people had money to pay taxes, but the landlords had no money but had to pay taxes. This put the Song court in a dilemma.
Meng Gansheng didn't admit it, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Qu Liangjiang handed several manuscripts to Zhao Xu.
Zhao Xu then remembered and quickly took it. He glanced at it briefly and nodded, saying, "Very bad."
Zhao Xu had just seen Qu Liangjiang off and was about to go to the front yard to see the two pregnant women, but Meng Gansheng came again.
"The court record of Zhang Fei's treason case."
Now Qu Liang is not attacking with two fists. On the one hand, he uses Meng Gansheng's new policies to change the current fiscal policy, but on the other hand, he uses Zhao Xu to build a new system.
The seven people looked at each other, and there was only one word in their eyes - bad luck.
Zhang Fei hurriedly stroked his beard, and suddenly his old face turned red, and he sat back, "I'm really ashamed to be Zhang Xiaoer's pen, that mouth is really talkative."
Zhang Fei said patiently, "I would like to hear your humble opinion. I would like to hear your humble opinion."
You have to know that we did not resist Zhao Xu's actions. That was because of Mo Xiao's trust. If it was someone else, the court might have been in trouble.
Of course, the same is true for Meng Gansheng.
Zhao Xu pondered for a while, "Does Wang Xue Shi suggest using public opinion to influence the court's decision?"
Procuratorate.
Meng Gansheng asked: "Did you congratulate him?"
Qu Liangjiang is much less busy than Zhang Fei, and sees things more thoroughly. After all, the root of this case is financial, and the purpose is to collect taxes.
Qu Liangjiang's eyes widened, he coughed, and then said: "But you are the only one who thinks so, my family also thinks so."
Meng Gansheng was surprised and asked, "Qizhou Junshi, has he changed his nature?"
Zhao Xu hurriedly bowed.
Because those eighty-seven people were only the principal offenders, and there are still several hundred people waiting to be tried.
"Of course."
Meng Gansheng.
Zhang Fei said: "You have thought of this, but in terms of the situation, it is just a political punishment, or demotion, or exile, which will involve criminal punishment. There should be a contradiction between the seven."
It would be fine if he did it once or twice, but the fact that he does it every time shows how capable he is.
“Yes!”
Meng Mansion.
Wen Yanbo said, "Did you say that?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Finally I can't hold it back anymore."
Qu Liangjiang said: "Last time, the old man from Qizhou asked him why you came to see him, and he said you came to praise him."
I paused for a moment and then said, "But speaking of the rules, did he follow the collective responsibility law in this case?"
And that is the only reason why Qu Liang is very supportive of judicial reform.
Zhang Fei nodded hurriedly, "The same is true for the case of adultery at Liuyun Temple. Everyone in our family thought that he was helping Liu Qing and wanted to severely punish Monk Miaokong, but in reality he was just defending the principle of arresting the adulterer following the husband, so Monk Miaokong's sentence was reduced by half."
With or without finance, everything is bullshit.
Meng Gansheng snorted, "You went to find medicine. Goodbye!"
Zhao Xu said seriously: "For an article like that, what is needed is to attract the eye at first glance, but it requires sloppy appreciation."
Zhao Xu asked: "What is that?"
Zhao Xu said: "It is certain that the procuratorate has violated the law of collective responsibility. The procuratorate's system will be completely destroyed. It can also be seen that the law of collective responsibility has not exceeded the authority of the public security, procuratorate and court. However, if no one is satisfied, it cannot be appealed to the Xiaoli Temple. You also support it. The law of collective responsibility cannot be implemented outside this. It's just that
"Huh...it's finally started."
......
But I once thought that just after leaving Zhang's house and turning the corner, I would meet the person I most wanted to meet.
Bang!
"Zhang San meets Scholar Sima."
These days, Sima Guang wanted to find Zhang Fei countless times, but he finally held back.
Meng Gansheng glanced at the door of Zhang's house and said with a smile: "Just taught someone a lesson!"

Qu Liangjiang coughed and changed the subject, saying, "Although the case has not been concluded, the problem of Jingdong East Road has not been solved yet. He should not be complacent."
Qu Liangjiang was so angry that he suddenly had an idea and said, "But you are stubborn and self-righteous, and you are willing to listen to the nonsense of Qizhou Junshi. In Hezhong Prefecture, did you make any compromises in your new policy? But why are you willing to compromise in Jingdong East Road? Is he just thinking about his own reasons?"
"It's the narrow husband who has come."
We are greedy by nature, but Sima is even greedier.
Zhao Xu said: "Please think about it seriously."
If I think about it that way, it seems that I really am suspicious of me and think that I am plotting something.
Meng Gansheng asked, "Does he know how many people he will offend?"
Pei Wen snorted, "That's really aggrieved. In fact, I am confused inside and outside. The cause of this case is that I want to collect money from the tax commissioner, so I raised the treason case. But now I have to defend the public security, procuratorate and courts, and sing praises for them. It's really unreasonable."
Zhang Fei gritted his teeth and said, "I hope this medicine can cure his stubborn mind."
However, Meng Gansheng really hopes to change the tax rate in the capital area to the same as that in Hezhong Prefecture. Since there are too few small wealthy families in the capital, it would definitely be possible to collect 70% tax, which would be simply too great. Moreover, the less the capital collects, the less grain the court will have, and the pressure on grain transportation will be much reduced.
Zhao Xu asked, "Are you hiding anything?"
"Yes, I dare!"
It’s just that the rich and powerful have annexed too much land, and our privileges are completely covered. It’s also unreasonable to say that we have no choice but to seek help from the weak bandits.
Qi Ji breathed a sigh of relief, "That case was really nerve-wracking to try!"
Zhang Fei said angrily, "What did you do to make him hate you so much?"
The public security, procuratorial and judicial organs are all about being as active as a mountain, but Meng Gan just needs to be lively.
Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment, and asked: "If there is no contradiction between the public security, procuratorate and courts and the collective responsibility law, will he still do that?"
"oh."
Zhao Xu asked, "What do you mean by this, Mr. Wang?"
Meng Gansheng sighed, "You wrote the career law article according to his ideas. Will he see if it works?"
He didn't need to avoid suspicion today and rushed over immediately.
Should it be considered treason, or should it be charged with tax evasion, murder, robbery, etc.
Zhao Xu was stunned. "Should it be Wang Xueshi who should advise the emperor?"
Zhao Xu said, "Wait a few days, because my family has been discussing the treason case recently, let's talk about it after this storm is over."
Zhang Fei snorted, "No one dares to say that. Let's use his rotten tongue. You want to see how he can push the accusation onto you."
Qu Liangjiang immediately said: "Opportunities can be lost, but they can be regained. The hero of this case is not the tax commissioner. That's a bad excuse!"
"yes."
"Thank you very much! Thank you very much!"
As I was talking, I suddenly realized, "Mr. Fu's intention is to exempt the collective responsibility law from criminal punishment and change it to political punishment."
Wang Gong immediately said: "In fact, the key to winning this case lies with the Taxation Department, not with your procuratorate."
Wang Gong said: "Because the key evidence was secretly given to Zhang by the tax commissioner. If we let your procuratorate investigate, can we still find the evidence?"
But in fact, since you entered the officialdom, everything you have done has been against the rules, and you have never played any tricks.
Qu Liangjiang asked again.
Qu Liang was stunned at first, but then he understood, "You will ask the charity foundation to donate some money to the business law to build a hospital and academy."
Qu Liangjiang suddenly seemed to remember something and coughed, "The charity foundation seems to have made a lot of money recently."
After hearing those words, Zhang Fei couldn't help being confused and frowned as he began to think.
Zhao Xu was startled by the old man. After a moment, he came to his senses and explained tearfully: "The scholar of Qizhou also said that you just obeyed the public security, procuratorial and legal system. You have always been like this. Do you have to report that to the scholar of Qizhou?"
The capital city just sets the tone.
Zhao Xu smiled and said, "That is also the essence of the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs. They can easily break good rules, even if it is for justice."
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "That's not the difference between him and Zhang Ba. The cleverness of my move is that I implemented the collective responsibility law. If I implement the collective responsibility law, it will definitely backfire on me, and that's not a mistake he often makes."
When I entered the courtyard, I saw Sima Guang sitting alone in the hall, holding a newspaper in his hand. Xu Zun had not come back yet, and he would probably not be able to go home until the afternoon, because the procuratorate had to deal with a lot of official documents.
Meng Gansheng's expression changed, "Does he intend to add fuel to the fire?"
......
Xu Zun said: "Although your procuratorate does not have the power of investigation, to verify such matters, you still mainly rely on the police station."
"Yeah?"
Fu Bi put down the document in his hand and hurriedly said to Zhang Fei, "Please sit down."
Following the rules, he can say that is wrong.
Qu Liangjiang wondered, "Can he tell by just taking a few glances?"
Zhao Xu wanted to say angrily: "I also want the court to re-examine the case in the Xiaoli Temple. You have no problem with that. That's the rule. Just do it as the rule says.
Qu Liangjiang nodded and said, "If it were him who was to judge, it would be a blessing to be in heaven!"
Wen Yanbo said: "Master Wang is worried, you will always pay attention to the situation here."
Pei Wen said, "Which of these royal family members and relatives in the capital pay taxes? Why is the tax bureau going to check again?"
"It's not a surprise, but there's no danger."
Rich mansion.
Zhao Xu said: "Either they want the Political Affairs Hall to change the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems, or the Legislative Council to amend the relevant laws."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Xie Yun sighed, "There is no way, because they have the upper hand."
Zhao Xu did not hide it, and said: "The scholar of Qizhou is both an elder and a subordinate, so it is reasonable for him to be scolded."
That is also a problem that every dynasty faces in the middle period.
It's true, it doesn't seem that bad. In fact, Qu Liang has always been following the rules and also weakening the rules. The reason why the result is unexpected is not because the result is guided by the rules, but because of the people we are used to.
"ah?"
Qu Liangjiang said: "He is really strange. He knows that no one is fanning the flames and framing others, but he is blaming us and the people who made the judgment according to the law."
Qu Liangjiang pretended to be joking.
"Even for justice?"
Niu Beiqing nodded, "But we have to be more careful in the future, especially our relatives. Judging from Zhang Ba's attitude, if we are caught by the procuratorate, we will definitely let them go."
Before receiving the emperor's rejection, Zhang Fei's case of treason finally came to an end, but it had not yet started completely and had to return to Zhang Fei's public security, procuratorate and courts.
Xie Yun sighed, "If they really implicate everyone, not only Zhang Fei's nobles, but even a few officials in the capital may be implicated."
Zhang Fei frowned and said, "But that is still a problem. In the future, the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs will become the only judicial system for you, Xiao Song, and Xiao Li Temple will also have to change accordingly. How will that problem be solved?"
"......?"
Meng Gan slammed the table fiercely, "You will know whether this old thief is telling the truth or not. Given my personality, how could I possibly praise him?"
"That's all."
"not yet!"
Zhao Xu looked at him and asked, "Did Scholar Qu Liang drink too?"
Zhang Fei raised his hand hurriedly, "I am not worthy of this, but I have to take care of him. After all, his eldest son keeps everything secret."
Qi Ji nodded and said, "Wang Duyou's words are unreasonable. Judging from that lawsuit, evidence is very important. Your procuratorate must also set up an investigation team like the tax department."
Although they are abiding by the rules and have not violated our privileges, Meng Gansheng is rapidly changing the existing system. For example, the exemption law is weakening our privileges.
Qu Liangjiang smiled and said, "If he did something, you would blame him, but you think he does everything and only talks. Why are you willing to compromise in Hezhong Prefecture? Is it because Zhang Ba, the eldest son, dares to act? I can propose a solution or alternative plan. If it doesn't make sense, if it can improve the finances, why do you listen to it?
Zhang Fei hurriedly asked: "You are already that old, why do you want to change your gender?"
Fu Bi said: "That lawsuit has brought up many issues for the Legislative Council, such as the definition of tax law, and the relationship between the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs and the law of collective responsibility."
I'm sure that the Qizhou scholar really suspected you. He couldn't foresee the result. No innocent person would escape, and you would hurt every innocent person."
As soon as these words came out, Qu Liangjiang immediately exploded, and stood up suddenly, "At this point, he is still thinking about it. He has long thought that the law of collective responsibility is incompatible with the public security, procuratorial and judicial law. Therefore, after this, you dare to do so, as if you want to put Xiaoxing in prison, but in fact he just wants Xiaojia to obey the public security, procuratorial and judicial law. But I am puzzled, didn't he tell me, would I stop him?"
Fu Bi nodded, "Judicial reform is to weaken the separation of politics and law. The public security, procuratorial and judicial systems allow for the implicate of innocent people, but they cannot be punished under the administration. The government cannot make the decision on that point, and it will damage the authority of the government. At the same time, it avoids destroying the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems."
Zhao Xu said: "This is because everyone in the family is focusing their attention on you, as if you can do everything, but in fact, you are everything. What you really rely on are rules and laws, not power. So, that is completely......!"
Zhao Xu smiled and said, "You think the time is ripe and you can make a decision. But when it comes to that kind of situation, it is still wrong. It will definitely be sent to the Xiaoli Temple. This must be a very minor case. As for these major cases, even if they involve the law of collective responsibility, they cannot be treated strictly."
Qu Liangjiang asked: "Does he think that the system should be amended or the law should be amended?"
Money is the root of all evil!
What about Qizhou Junshi? He only says that your new policy is good and offers an alternative plan. Why should you listen to him? Just now he said that the cleverness of Qu Liangjiang is that he implements the law of collective responsibility. If it were him, if you, Qu Liangjiang, dared to use your reputation as a guarantee, he would dare to sue us for treason. "
Qu Liangjiang said: "Then I am grateful to the scholar from Qizhou for taking care of me..."
Qu Liang said awkwardly, "I just went to celebrate with someone."
Zhao Xu said aggrievedly: "You are too bold to say that."
......
And the essence of the new system, as Zhao Xu said, is to weaken the rules, nothing else.
Qu Liangjiang thought without thinking: "The lower beam must be straight, so the upper beam will be crooked!"
Zhang Fei was stunned, "What?"
Qu Liangjiang said: "Once the collective responsibility law is implemented, no one will add fuel to the flames and frame up all the innocent people. Even if only one person is implicated, no one in the court will make a fuss about it and then strike back, so that all his subsequent efforts will be wasted."
Sima originally wanted to pin all his hopes on Meng Gansheng, instead of trying every possible way to get all the money in a roundabout way. But the problem is that Qu Liangjiang's new policy will ultimately have to rely on the old system, and the old system is full of vested interests. We don't have the power to transfer the risk upward.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It’s even more exciting later!
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "You blame us for solving the problem. You haven't even told him that if he does that, there will definitely be a better result, but he still does it. Who can you blame him for?"
......
Zhang Fei snorted and said, "That doesn't make much sense. You have been wondering what he is planning, but you didn't expect that he was just breaking the rules."
Qu Liangjiang was angry. He pointed at Zhang Fei and said hurriedly, "He said, what is this little fortune?"
As I said this, I sighed.
Niu Beiqing said: "He is sitting in the hall."
Zhao Xu said awkwardly: "Yes, it is true. You are just stating the facts."
"When does he plan to send this?"
Meng Gansheng looked very pleased and said, "He is not targeting you. I did more than you did, but I did not go beyond you. If it were you, he would scold you every day."
Zhao Xu was puzzled. "Master Wang, what is he talking about?"
Zhang Fei was quick-witted and asked, "Teach whom a lesson?"
After saying that, I saw Niu Beiqing and Xie Yun staring at me blankly, "Why are they looking at you like that?"
When that lawsuit came up, we didn't feel that we were involved enough because we lacked investigation and the tax commissioner was definitely helping us. What should we do then?
The final tone was still the crime of treason, but that crime of treason was based on the public security, procuratorial and judicial systems. It was the first time, and it was actually a milestone.
Zhao Xu nodded and said, "You know."
Zhang Fei said hurriedly: "In the final analysis, this case is also due to taxation, and taxation is related to finance. If it were him, he would care about the law of collective responsibility even before he was convicted of treason. For him, it can be executed, and he will most likely execute it."
Quickly stepping into the hall, Zhang Fei bowed.
“He is that medicine.”
The combination of movement and stillness makes the family very happy.
After chatting with Zhao Xu for a while, Zhang Fei hurriedly got up and said goodbye. I actually wanted to complain again. I was actually quite satisfied with the result.
Meng Gansheng said: "Let the tax commissioner take full control of the taxation in the capital area."
Zhao Xu said: "You just think that it is you who is hiding something and is suspicious of the scholar from Qizhou. On the contrary, it is the scholar from Qizhou who is suspicious of you. He always thinks that you are playing some crooked tricks and that everything you do is without conspiracy.
Xu Zun asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhang Fei laughed and said, "You are praising me, so why should I teach you a lesson?"
Meng Gansheng immediately gave Zhao Xu an admiring look.
There was no other choice but to quickly order someone to prepare tea.
The Commissioner of Taxation is part of both the new policy and judicial reform. Qu Liangjiang also has to consider the people around him. I was too mean to say that.
Speaking of that, I suddenly nodded. "Now that I think about it, that is also the key to his success, because he always stands on the side of the rules. Therefore, you all have no way to deal with him. After all, according to the court laws, you all have to abide by the rules."
Sima Guang smelled alcohol and looked at me. "Where did he go to drink?"
Zhang Fei didn't expect that Zhao Xu went to celebrate with the emperor. He said sourly, "Yes! Congratulations to him for winning the lawsuit again."
Meng Gansheng asked, "Would you like to hear the details?"
Everyone else present nodded frequently.
Qi Ji said: "But the police station is obviously the tax commissioner. According to the superior, we should either form an investigation team ourselves, or put pressure on the police station and let it learn from the tax commissioner and weaken its investigation methods."
"handle?"
Xu Zun put down the document in his hand, "They are just worried about it, but they didn't learn anything from it. What are the shortcomings of our procuratorate?"
Zhang Fei glanced at me and said, "You are judging a gentleman by your own standards?"
Zhang Fei nodded quickly. That is exactly what I was thinking. Things like that must be done slowly and step by step.
Zhao Xu shook his head and said, "You are vague. You only look at the evidence. As a prosecutor, you will speculate whether others are good or bad, because that will make you look very professional. You only analyze the evidence. According to the evidence, your procuratorate cannot charge us with treason. Of course, you are working towards that goal."
......
Before Zhang Feidao sat down, he asked, "What is Mr. Fu looking at?"
Zhao Xu looked at Meng Gansheng in confusion.
In the end, it just becomes a way of making money from the people.
"When you came here just now, you happened to run into Junshi. Did he get scolded again?"
But how could Zhang Fei admit defeat so easily? He suddenly said, "Wu Tian, Luo Hai and others have no intention of rebellion. He should be vague about it."
Meng Gansheng said, "Of course it's Zhang Ba. I've only been in the procuratorate for a short time, but he's already caused a lot of trouble in the city. It almost caused a bloody storm. He must teach me a lesson."
Xu Zun nodded slightly.
"But that's what he thought."
On the contrary, it is the Qizhou scholar...!"
The key point is that the rule is an old rule. Why does the tax commissioner cause such a headache to the rich and powerful? It also depends on whether the tax commissioner has denied our privileges, whether he has broken the existing system, and whether he is just collecting taxes within the privileges.
Meng Gansheng's expression calmed down and he coughed twice, "Congratulations to him for winning the lawsuit."
