Chapter Five Hundred and Two The Drum Sounded

In fact, it was very simple to solve the Lu family's problem. As long as you talk about this matter with Lu Ge Lao, Lu Ge Lao would naturally ask Li You to let him go, and it would be a successful end. This irrelevant little thing is naturally to give each other face.

However, Mr. Peng was stimulated by a villain repeatedly. This time, he seemed to be unpredictable if he would take an unusual path and complicate the matter.

When he got up in the morning, Li Youshang was still immersed in a faint joy. He gave a few instructions to the butler Li Si and sent additional maids to Aunt Ma.

He had breakfast casually again. Lord Li was about to go out to the yamen, but he saw Cheng's elder brother-in-law Cheng Yu waiting in the doorman. Li Youqi said, "If you don't go in, why are you waiting here? Ask outsiders to look at it, they just say I'm rude to my relatives."

Cheng Yu bowed and said, "I happened to be here and saw that you were about to go out, so I didn't have to get into the room anymore. It would be convenient to just say a few words here."

"What's the matter? I just met yesterday, but today I came to look for me early."

Brother Cheng replied: "Last night, he chatted with Jian Nei. He learned that the Lu family had a secret friendship with Peng Ge Lao in the court, and often took it as a helping hand. He was afraid that he would miss his brother, so he hurried to tell me this morning."

Why did he get involved with Mr. Peng? Li You was quite surprised. He did not expect that the backer of the Lu family was actually his mortal enemy Mr. Peng. He asked again: "You didn't mention it yesterday, what's the reason for telling me at this time?"

"I really didn't know yesterday. Even if there was any guesswork, I could do it accurately. Any smart businessman who is willing to show off his background at will may not know it. It was not until last night that my wife revealed the truth, and I didn't expect that she would know the inside story."

Li You suddenly realized that the difference between the giant businessmen in the north, especially in the capital, and the south is that they are low-key and cautious in their work and do not like to be arrogant.

Thinking about the atmosphere of salt merchants in Yangzhou, they are all competing, showing off their luxury, and acting swagger. With Jin Baiwan, he, Li You, he almost wished that the entire Jiangzuo knew about it. Looking at the big businessmen in Beijing, they can be said to be cautious. The trump cards are hidden, and even the in-laws do not easily reveal their background. Compared with the two, the differences in behaviors are too obvious.

So that's it. Li You himself is from the southern country and has only lived in the capital for more than half a year. He has never had an intuitive feeling about this aspect, so he only understood it slightly today.

This situation is definitely not because the huge businessmen in the capital are not as rich as those in the salt merchants in Yangzhou, even if they are a few different. That is not a decisive factor. After all, the capital is at the foot of the emperor. It is a place where the tiger and the dragon are hidden, and it is easily affected. The mall is also infected with the habits of the officialdom. The big businessmen can't help but act accidentally.

For example, the Cheng family was not a show-off in the past few years, but only contradicted the powerful and powerful. As a result, they searched their homes and became soldiers in a blink of an eye. They were scattered and randomly scattered with their own backers. Unless the backers were the emperor who could no one deposed, they were afraid that the citron that had made their way out would be rotten first.

I also remembered that Mr. Cheng hid Li You, the son-in-law, was not known to outsiders. On the one hand, he was ashamed of his daughter as a concubine; on the other hand, it was not that he learned from his mistakes and wanted to keep it as a trump card at critical moments.

But Cheng Lu's family is very interesting... Li You couldn't help but look at Cheng's brother-in-law with sympathy. Cheng Lu's family was really not a good-looking lamp. She kept silent during the day yesterday and didn't tell him until last night. Obviously, she did it on purpose. With such a wife, some demons might appear in the future.

Because he talked to Cheng Yu, Lord Li left a little late and arrived at the yamen. When he took a chariot and was about to reach the yamen, he saw three or five people wandering through the small window, and he felt rare.

This alley is a dead end with no way out. It has been abolished since the former Jinyiwei North and North Fushi Office and the Imperial Prison were not used. There are no people in normal times. Since his new yamen opened, there has been some movement. This is the first time outsiders have seen each other today.

Lord Li entered the door, then moved into the hospital, and sat down. Then Mr. Cui, who had arrived, came in to report: "Master! Early this day, there were eight cases handed over by the soldiers and horse officials!"

Li You suddenly understood why someone was wandering outside the yamen. It turned out that a lawsuit was overwhelmed by him, so naturally there were people of all kinds who came to hear about it, but I’m afraid there will be more in the future.

Mr. Cui was about to report the details further, but he heard the boss ask: "Which military officers have transferred it to him?"

This is what the boss really cares about. Master Cui realized something and quickly replied: "There are three places except for Zhongcheng and Nancheng."

It was these two more families... Lord Li pointed his head slightly and signaled Master Cui to continue.

"The cases include three types of beatings, injuries, robbery, and adultery. They were all tried by the censors of various cities. The relevant criminals' confessions and verdicts are submitted here, and they are only waiting for the proprietor to review."

Li You thought for a moment, how could the capital be so big, how could it be that there were only these few cases? It was probably a trivial small case after the trial of the Censor of the City, and the Five City Military Command handled it by themselves. Only those with slightly more executions were originally required to be transferred to the Ministry of Justice, but this time he chose a few cases to send them to him first.

The yamen is newly opened, and everything is when setting rules. Others may not have the intention of using this to test. This is called throwing a stone to ask for directions. At this point, Lord Li asked: "Is there no life, robbers and other serious cases?"

"No." Mr. Cui said. In the laws of the state, human lives and robbers are serious cases, so Lord Li asked this question.

In this way, Li You made an order, "In the future, any case of death or robbery will be transferred to the Ministry of Justice after trial. As for human lives, under robbers, the case today will be reviewed by our court, but only the details will be reported to the Ministry of Justice. The crime will be left in our court, and the court will eventually request the emperor to be sentenced."

Mr. Cui was very familiar with the Dharma Department and understood it as soon as he heard it. The boss’s meaning was to turn the Admiral’s Censor’s Office into a life of a person in the capital, and the final judgment of cases other than robbers.

The original system was that the Five City Procuratorate (the Censor’s Office is called the Procuratorate) was transferred to the Ministry of Justice. The Ministry of Justice submitted a request to the emperor. Now it has become the Five City Procuratorate (Li Li controlled the Five City Procuratorate, so it was called the General Court). The General Court informed the Ministry of Justice to file a record and directly submitted a request to the emperor.

In fact, the request of Lord Li to submit the Shenqing official document to the Ministry of Justice is probably only a form to retain a little decent skill with the Ministry of Justice, so that he will not be attacked and changed into a law.

Among the Three Laws, Dali Temple, which is responsible for review, is now the weakest and almost becomes a rubber stamp. The Censorate and the Ministry of Justice have their own division of labor and strengths, but in terms of the power in the court, it is obviously the Censorate is stronger.

Although Li You's general court has a lower rank than the Ministry of Justice, he has the title of the Right Assistant Chief of the Procuratorate. He is a relatively high-level heterodyne in the Censorate. He uses customs defense and has half the imperial envoy attribute. Therefore, in the official rules, he can barely have the qualification to re-exercise the judicial authority division with the Ministry of Justice, and will not be regarded as arrogant.

After giving the official business, Li You remembered Lu Shangzhi's affairs again.

He arrested this person in the yamen and beat him up and detained him. On the one hand, he wanted to make him famous, open the sacrifice flag, and find his face by the way. Otherwise, letting such a small pawn hang his teeth and claws in front of him, Lord Li, and not taking revenge would be a laughing stock. He also warned those who dared to attack Mrs. Cheng, who had Lu Shangzhi yesterday, and there might be Zhang Shangzhi and Wang Shangzhi tomorrow.

On the other hand, if it is indeed as he speculated that there is a factor of mutual conflict between the Lu family, then Lord Li is like a shark that smells blood. For Li You, who is determined to create a foundation for the bill in this time and space, the Lu family's account has a lot of usefulness. It is almost impossible to embezzle it blatantly, but you can borrow a chicken to lay eggs and let it act as a footprint for the original accumulation.

But how to take advantage of this opportunity and interfere in the internal strife of the Lu family. Li You has not yet planned it carefully and is still thinking about it, so Lu Shangzhi can only be locked up first.

Li You also has another consideration, that is, to use static and to hold on to Lu Shangzhi, and to observe the movements of all parties and find opportunities to take advantage of them.

For several days after that, the Admiral Five City Yamen wrote down the cases they received every day and sent them to the Qing Lishu Department related to the Ministry of Justice. As for the statements and criminals, they were left to digest them themselves and did not hand them over to the Ministry of Justice, unless it was enough to have the standards for serious cases.

This caused great criticism in the Thirteenth Division of the Ministry of Justice. If this continues, the Ministry of Justice will almost control the name of the capital. Li You sent Shen Qing according to the rules on the surface, but in fact it was just a superficial system! If their departments have any different opinions, will Li You listen to it when he posts back?

You should know that the officials of the Ministry of Justice rely on these words and oil and water in the capital. How many serious cases are there such as human lives, robbers, etc.?

Faced with the sensation in the ministry, the Minister of Justice, Lord Xun, was also in a dilemma.

He himself was determined to be a temple and did not care about these specific criminal and common affairs. Among the high-ranking officials and big bosses in the court who were separated from the low-level interests, I am afraid that no one regards the trivialities of the capital as the main task. As for income, Secretary Xun, as one of the nine ministers, had his own Bing Jing and Tan Jing from all over the country, and did not rely on criminal cases.

But Shangshu Xun had to consider the resentment and emotions of his subordinates. If Li You were from the other side, the matter would be simpler. Just go to the book and impeach Li You. However, Li You was barely considered a member of the party and was a disciple of Lu Ge Lao. When he went to impeach Li You, he was afraid that he would make it a joke for outsiders.

I still have to find an opportunity to talk to Mr. Lu and Mr. Yang, and then talk to Li You. Mr. Xun thought.

The sixth day of the 10th month is the day of the dynasty meeting in the 36th month.

There is an east-west imperial road outside Chengtian Gate, with one gate at each end. The west end is called "Chang'an Right Gate" and the east end is called "Chang'an Left Gate". When all officials enter the palace and go to court, they must first enter the imperial city through these two gates before they can enter the palace.

The right gate of Chang'an is slightly more famous than the left gate of Chang'an. One reason is that the Dengwen Gu is outside the right gate of Chang'an, which is the last hope for the people of the world to seek justice.

On the early morning of the sixth day of the 10th month, the prefect of the prefect of the prefect of the prefecture came out of their houses in a cold air and gradually gathered towards the right gate of Chang'an and the left gate of Chang'an. The prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the prefecture of the pre

For a moment, the right gate of Chang'an was bustling, and officials were greeting each other endlessly. At this moment, a dull drum sounded suddenly, disturbing the greetings of the officials from the prefectures.

I had never heard the drum sound at this time in the past, and everyone was stunned. Then someone realized that it was the sound of the Dengwen drum next to me!
