In the main hall, Zhao Kai slapped a memorial on the table with an angry face and said angrily: "How can it be unreasonable? How can it be unreasonable? It's natural for officials to bully the people. This Li Qizhen is so bold. Has he treated me as the emperor?"
In our eyes, the dignified Privy Councilor, who is the first rank of the dynasty, actually spoke openly and beat up meritorious officials for no reason in this bright world. This is the first time I have heard of this. He has completely lost the face of the Privy Council.
It really pisses me off."
After hearing this, Hu Yi and other officials from the five ministries couldn't help but be overjoyed. They were about to stand up and stir up trouble, but they were stared back by Qin Hui. They felt really confused. This is a great opportunity. How could Shaozai stop us?
But they didn't dare to act rashly anymore.
They didn't say anything, and the rest of them, let alone the others, bowed their heads and remained silent.
Zhao Kai glanced at the ministers and said: "Although this crime is not serious, Li Qi, as a secret envoy, knows the law and breaks the law. The crime should be increased to one level and he should be severely punished. Otherwise, how can I face the people of the world? President of the Judiciary
Where is it?"
Li Gang quickly stood up and said: "Wei Chen is here."
Zhao Kai said: "Where has the case progressed now?"
Li Gang said truthfully: "Wei Chen is already negotiating with Daming Palace. Originally, Wei Chen wanted Daming Palace to transfer the privy envoy back to Beijing as soon as possible and wait for the emperor's decision. However, the Sentencing Department and Jurisprudence of Daming Palace
Everyone in the temple believed that the Privy Councilor committed the murder in Daming Mansion, and that the Privy Councilor was of the highest rank in the dynasty and had a very negative impact on the court. He should be punished in Daming Mansion and give an explanation to the people of Daming Mansion. After serving his sentence
, and then hand it over to the capital."
Zhao Kai groaned for a moment, nodded and said: "That's how it should be. Go and tell Daming Mansion Fa Li Temple that although Li Qi is the privy envoy, don't have any scruples. You can punish him as you please."
Li Gangdao: "Reporting to the emperor, Fuli Temple has already made a verdict. The Privy Councilor was guilty of assaulting others. Since he did not cause serious casualties, he was sentenced to half a month in prison and fined fifty guan as a warning."
"It's only fifty guan, which is too light."
Zhao Kai still seemed very angry.
Li Gang said: "But Your Majesty, the law stipulates this, and Falis Temple can only make judgments based on the law. If it is modified without authorization, it is tantamount to engaging in corruption for 'private interests'. Moreover, the Privy Council will be tried again after returning to Beijing."
.”
"That's pretty much it."
Zhao Kai nodded and asked again: "Did you ask clearly about the whole case?"
Li Gangdao: "According to a report from Daming Prefecture, Lu Changqing and others went to the Legislative Yuan to cause trouble that day, forcing the Legislative Yuan to revoke the Women's Protection Law. They also had some conflicts with the Yamen guarding the Legislative Yuan. The Privy Councilor happened to be passing by.
During the argument, the Privy Councilor slapped Lu Changqing twice without warning. This matter has been confirmed and is absolutely true. However, Lu Changqing also slapped a government official and insulted the Legislative Yuan when he first caused trouble.
Fuli Temple sentenced Lu Changqing to a one-month service order, and the others were given half-month service orders as punishment."
"Service order?"
Zhao Kai asked curiously.
Mao Shu stood up and said: "Your Majesty, this service order is a new punishment recently promulgated by the Daming Prefecture Legislative Yuan. It is specifically targeted at criminals with minor crimes and unintentional mistakes, that is, forcing prisoners to serve as civilians.
Services, such as cleaning streets, repairing public buildings, cleaning government offices, etc. According to the Daming Prefecture Legislative Yuan, because Lu Changqing and others are old, they may not be able to bear the jail sentence, but their faults are not serious.
, so this punishment is given in the hope that they can change their ways."
Zhao Kai nodded with a smile and asked: "As the president of the Legislative Yuan, what do you think?"
Mao Shu said: "I feel that this kind of service order is very practical, and it can also make up for many shortcomings in the criminal law. If Lu Changqing and others are sentenced to prison, their bodies will not be able to withstand the humidity in prison.
Cold and foul odor can lead to serious illness or even loss of life. As the saying goes, if I don't kill Boren, Boren will die because of me. Then this is an excessive punishment and is really unfair. But with this service order, Dali Temple
The judgment can become more flexible, so Wei Chen suggested that the service order be included in the Basic Law of the Song Dynasty."
"Your thoughts coincide with mine."
Zhao Kai nodded, a sneer suddenly appeared in the corner of his mouth and said: "But I am very curious, how could Lu Changqing and others dare to besiege the Legislative Yuan. As one of the second chambers, the Legislative Yuan is a symbol of the laws of the Song Dynasty. Isn't it that they besieged the Legislative Yuan?
Are you provoking me and provoking the laws of the Song Dynasty? It seems that in my Song Dynasty there are still many people who are above the law and me."
"I am aware of my guilt."
All the ministers bowed.
Zhao Kai snorted and said: "I don't know whether you are guilty or not, but I know that some of you are also alienated from the imperial court."
Li Gangdao: "Let me tell you, Your Majesty, the main reason for this incident is the Protection of Women Act, which also allowed prostitutes to be free, which hurt the interests of some people, so they strongly opposed it."
"Some people?"
Zhao Kai snorted: "As the president of the Judicial Yuan, you actually said such vague words. I am really disappointed."
"I know my mistake." Li Gang lowered his head and said, "Most of these people are from the scholar-bureaucrat families of our dynasty."
Zhao Kai laughed and said: "Whether they are women or men, they are all my people. The Legislative Yuan has promulgated laws to protect my people. I really don't know what is wrong with this."
Having said this, he sighed and said: "Since the founding of our country, we have given people the status of good citizens and promoted the employment system. The word slave will eventually become obsolete, but this 'private' prostitute has not been improved. This 'private' prostitute has not been improved."
Prostitutes are no different from slaves. It is precisely because of the existence of "private" prostitutes that the officials of the Song Dynasty became extravagant. They ignored official duties all day long and indulged in wine and sex. I deeply hate this, regardless of
From any point of view, this has deeply hurt the interests of the Song Dynasty. Since I came to the throne, I have been warning you that the interests of the country come first. If I do something wrong, you can correct me or even scold me.
I, but no reason can be used as a reason for you to harm the national interests. These people are our enemies of the Song Dynasty.
A few months ago, the Privy Council was ordered to inspect Yanshan Prefecture, and found that the people of Yanshan Prefecture were already living and working in peace and contentment, and had emerged from the shadow of the war.
Only by solving the problem of population shortage in Yanshan Prefecture and encouraging women to go out of the house and participate in industry, agriculture and commerce can Yanshan Prefecture be revitalized quickly. This is also the original intention of the Legislative Yuan to promulgate the Women's Protection Law, and those scholar-bureaucrats are doing it for themselves.
They openly provoke the Legislative Yuan and disregard the interests of the country despite their selfish desires. Huh, it seems that our government is too tolerant of scholar-bureaucrats, and it’s time to make some changes."
When the ministers heard Zhao Kai's last words, their hearts beat violently.
Zhao Kai smiled coldly and said: "Scholar-bureaucrats, scholar-bureaucrats, you asked for this. Don't blame me for being ruthless. I don't believe it yet. It's not okay for anyone to leave my Song Dynasty. If this is the case, then my
It will be up to the scholar-bureaucrats to sit on the dragon's throne."
"Your Majesty, please calm down."
"Calm down?"
Zhao Kai snorted and said: "Legislative Yuan, Judicial Yuan, Yushitai."
"Wei Chen is here."
Mao Shu, Chen Dong, and Li Gang immediately stood up.
Zhao Kai said: "You should popularize the Women's Protection Law across the country as soon as possible, and it must be strictly enforced. Anyone who does not obey the law will be punished as treason. In addition, the Legislative Yuan should re-examine the crime of human trafficking and not punish them."
Capital punishment may not be enough to establish authority."
Treason?
This is a capital crime! It is possible for the whole family to be executed!
Many ministers stood up and advised: "Your Majesty, the reform should not be 'radical', but should be done slowly and gradually, otherwise the world will be in 'chaos'."
Zhao Kai snorted coldly: "I also want to slowly and gradually, and I also want to persuade them, but they dare to besiege my Legislative Yuan. How can you tell me how to slowly gradually? Don't talk anymore, otherwise, don't blame me for taking you.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkey."
He is not like his ancestors. He is very courageous. He either doesn't do it or does it very thoroughly. Moreover, he is really not afraid of the scholar-bureaucrats. The only enemy in his heart is the Kingdom of Jin. Compared with the fierce Jin Dynasty, he is not like his ancestors.
As a soldier, would he still be afraid of scholar-bureaucrats?
It can be said that a person who dares to compete with Jin Bing will never be afraid of a scholar-official. When Jin Bing went south, he saw the weakness and incompetence of this scholar-official. He was basically a paper tiger. If he saw Jin Bing, he would meet his son.
Just like my father, being soft to such people won't work. They will be afraid only if they are tough.
Those ministers were so frightened that their legs trembled. The emperor even wanted to kill them, but he didn't dare to say anything and quickly retreated.
Zhao Kai said again: "Chen Dong, I will appoint you as the law enforcement inspector now. You will lead three thousand Japanese troops to patrol every state and county across the country. No matter what means you use, you must protect this woman."
I will spread the word, and if necessary, you can kill them first and then report them. However, if there is even one illegal 'private' prostitute in the Song Dynasty, then I will take you for granted."
Chen Dongdao: "I will obey my orders."
When Qin Hui saw that Zhao Kai asked Chen Dong to serve as the law enforcement inspector, he knew that this time it was no joke, because Chen Dong was from a poor family, and he was stubborn and did not know how to be versatile. If anyone did not obey,
The consequences are really predictable by everyone.
Zhao Kai handed over this task to Chen Dong, obviously because he valued Chen Dong's characteristics. All signs indicate that he will start to attack the scholar-bureaucrats.
"Young Master Qin."
"Wei Chen is here."
Zhao Kai said: "As for the reform of the imperial examination, you should supervise it and complete it as soon as possible. I hope to recruit talented people from all over the world to share your worries. No matter what background he comes from, as long as he has the ability, the court should give him
An opportunity to serve our country."
The implication of this is to increase the channels for people from poor families or other talents to enter the court and become officials. On the other hand, it is to weaken the influence of those scholar-bureaucrat families.
Again, how can I allow others to snore next to this bed?
The power of the scholar-bureaucrats was too great. As the emperor, Zhao Kai would never allow this situation to continue to develop.
So this battle is a matter of time. Now Zhao Kai holds great power, and the scholar-bureaucrats have already suffered heavy losses in that huge war. They are now in a period of reorganization, so Zhao Kai knows that the sooner this battle happens, the better.
Otherwise, he may have to be timid after the reorganization of the scholar-bureaucrat class is completed.
Zhao Kai then said to the ministers: "You must remember that you can stand here not because of who your fathers or ancestors are, but because I think you can help me govern the Song Dynasty. You and I are of the same mind.
Yes, if you can't do it, then I will find someone to replace you immediately, do you understand me clearly?"
"I heard you clearly."
"Retreat from the court."
