"Please, Your Majesty, severely punish Count Anding!"
"Please, Your Majesty, severely punish Count Anding!"
Emperor Chu looked at the angry cries of more and more ministers in the court, and he probably sighed, taking advantage of that kid for the time being!
Emperor Chu said: "In this case, I will punish the Anding county uncle to face the wall at home and think about his mistakes, and he will not be allowed to enter the palace to see him without being summoned!"
After the Emperor of Chu spoke, many officials in the court raised their hands and said, "Your Majesty is wise!"
In fact, if it were another person, the officials above the court would have to be wary. After all, with the interests of the power and the yamen intertwined, it would be difficult for them to speak too harshly.
After all, although everyone has their own political opponents above the court, how they scold each other below is also a private matter.
They scolded each other too harshly in private, but when two people meet, they still have to say "Hello, Brother Zhang, Hello, Brother Li," and other polite words.
As for why he was so unscrupulous towards the uncle of Chang'an County, and even pointed the finger at him without any scruples about his face?
Because Xu Qing has offended the public today, and scholars all over the world have verbally criticized him. They are equivalent to standing at the highest point, standing in the sun, they are the incarnation of justice!
They are responsible for the justice of scholars all over the world!
And Xu Qing has long been reduced to a person reviled by scholars all over the world!
In this matter, they occupied the moral high ground from the beginning. Even if this matter passed, Xu Qing would be helpless if he wanted to settle accounts with them.
Because everyone in the court today is seconding the proposal, even if Xu Qing wants to settle accounts with them, there is no way he can do it. Unless he has the ability to deal with all the civil servants in the court, he will not dare to do it!
In this case, what do they have to fear?
As long as we can successfully divert His Majesty's attention, offending an Anding county official will be an offence!
Are other people's interests as important as your own?
Letting Xu Qing be infamous for the rest of his life can be exchanged for them to live a stable life for the rest of their lives. It's worth the deal!
Not to mention, they still stand in the position of restoring scholars in the world. If Xu Qing is punished because of their participation, then their reputation among the people will greatly increase!
They really can't find any reason not to do things that bring them both fame and fortune.
More importantly, Xu Qing has no interests involved with them!
The Guoshangyuan does not belong to any yamen in the imperial bureaucracy. Even if Xu Qing is investigated and prosecuted, the Guoshangyuan will collapse tomorrow, and there will be no loss for them.
Only after this calculation did they become so confident!
…
At this moment, the stubborn supervisory censor stood up again: "Your Majesty, I dare to ask your Majesty to punish the Anding county uncle for offending the saints."
The Emperor of Chu looked at the supervisory censor and said: "There is no law in the "Da Chu Law Order" that can punish County Count Anding. How can I punish him?"
At this moment, Emperor Chu also somewhat understood the true intention of the supervisory censor. Those people who were shouting more and more anxiously just now are all really corrupt officials who are risking their lives to protect their own interests and divert his attention.
Part of it was because the hat on Xu Qing's head was too big, so they couldn't help but agree.
Only the censor who is still shouting is really silly and cute!
He really felt that Xu Qing had tarnished the sage in his heart, and felt that Xu Qing must be severely punished.
However, Yushitai is indeed the place with the most clear water, so it is not surprising that there is such an upright person.
The supervisory censor spoke again: "Your Majesty, we cannot let Anding County Bo go unpunished just because the law does not enumerate stripes. In the beginning, because of the imperfect laws in Chu, various bookstores secretly published other people's works. It was only recently that the laws were perfected. This lacuna in the law has made our laws in Dachu more perfect, and has enabled many people to redress their injustices."
The more the supervisory censor spoke, the more he felt something was wrong. Weren't there a lot of people in the court who echoed his words just now? Why are there so few now?
At this moment, the Minister of Punishment and the imperial censor began to look at the censor who dared to say anything without saying a word, and couldn't take their eyes away.
Not only the two of them, many officials above the court were looking at him.
Why doesn't he open which pot? Who filled the gap in the law? He won't forget it, right?!
It’s Xu Qing!
It was also a copyright law that made him famous in the court.
Not just for the court, it can be said that Xu Qing is a great benefactor to those who write books and establish theories in the world!
Everyone who writes books and commentaries all over the world knows that it was the Anding county uncle who perfected the law and helped them get justice. They are also very grateful to Xu Qing in their hearts.
After such a long time, the incident of Anding County Bo's single-handedly composing a new law had just subsided, and you brought it up again.
Good guy, how much saliva have they wasted here? They have just ruined Xu Qing's reputation. If you say so, wouldn't all their efforts just now be in vain?!
They really want to ask: Where are you from?
When the stubborn supervisory censor saw that no one agreed with him, he immediately became heartbroken and thought to himself: I, Tan Yun, am on the side of justice today, upholding the justice of scholars in the world, so why do I need others to agree with me?!
Thinking of this, the supervisory censor said stubbornly again: "Your Majesty, I think that since we know today that there are still loopholes in our laws, we should fix them as soon as possible and make up for it before it is too late! Your Majesty!"
The Minister of the Ministry of Justice looked at him as if he were a fool. Not only the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, the Minister of the Ministry of Justice, but also the director of the Yushitai: Yushi Dafu, Yushi Zhongcheng and other ministers looked at him like a fool.
Is the law something he can perfect when he says it will be perfected? Is it something he can add if he says he wants to add it?
Among the great Chu, apart from Xu Qing's "Copyright Law" where there was no controversy, which one involved legal changes or additions or deletions that didn't lead to huge quarrels?
It would be better for you, if you say increase, it will increase. Do you think that the law belongs to your family?
The supervisory censor looked at the people around him who were watching him, and his lips moved: "My lords, why do you think so highly of the lower officials? Is it true that without the Anding county uncle, I, the great Chu, will not be able to add laws? Is this what the Anding county uncle is like? Irreplaceable?!"
But various officials were still watching him.
Don’t you know that it’s irreplaceable?
Why did they have to argue about changing the law for half a year without reaching a conclusion?
Because even a small change in the law will affect the interests of many people, and Xu Qing's law will not offend the interests of any of them.
Including the later reformed supervision system, for the same reason, the content was filled in by them, which had a strong deterrent effect on local corrupt officials, but for them in the court, their interests were not affected much.
Moreover, these high-ranking officials would not trouble the common people when they had nothing to do. Most of their interests were in the court and not among the people, so the impact on them would be even smaller.
Who in the court dares to establish a law as considerate as Xu Qing's?
