Chapter 1124 The sky has eyes
At the court meeting on the day of Wangri in April, Shen Zhezi really lived up to everyone's expectations, and put forward the slogan of "do not follow or hide, and the matter is decided by the public".

Do not engage in favoritism or fraud, do not hide things for your lord, and only ask the court to make all matters clear. In the eyes of later generations, this may be a kind of political correctness that does not need to be argued, even if it is always compromised in specific implementation, but in ideology The correctness is beyond doubt.

But in the current era, especially in the political situation of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, where the tyrants have continued to grow stronger since the Han Dynasty and have evolved into a mature body of ruling power, this political slogan is absolutely deafening and shocking.

Since ZTE, administrative law enforcement has always followed the principle of following propriety and affection, and most of the time, affection even precedes ritual.For example, Dao Wang treats people leniently, swallows boats through leaks, and does not treat scholars with harsh laws.Even Yu Liang, the so-called criminal name in power, is more ruthless in the restraint and suppression of the clan and political opponents, especially Fang Zhen's power, and the real legal establishment is actually lacking.

Including in the real history, Huan Wen served as the governor of Jingzhou, and was tortured by an official. The stick was only wiped from the official uniform. It's a sigh of relief.The so-called kindness does not command soldiers, and even Huan Wen, who holds a heavy soldier in his hands, Fen Shan Fang Bo, wants to use simple punishment as a beauty!
The evil in human nature has always been indulged. There is no natural bad seed. It is as small as a baby in the arms.

In fact, from Shen Zhezi's standpoint, governing the country by law is not simply about creating a peaceful and orderly world. When he becomes a real power holder, he naturally needs to start from the size of the entire country when thinking about issues. The focus of attention It's not about specific personnel feelings, but because this is the most simple, feasible, cost-effective and cost-effective governance strategy that avoids disputes.

Before Shen Zhezi, it was not that he had not thought of drawing lessons from the formation of empires in the Northern Zhou, Sui, and Tang dynasties, centered on the Shen family he was born in, united with the truly forward-looking families in the current situation, and got rid of the bloated family system. So as to create a military and political complex similar to the Guanlongmen Clan.

When making these considerations, Shen Zhezi still fell into superficial empiricism, ignoring the difference between his situation and Yu Wentai's.

Yu Wentai was born in Xianbei, and the foundation of the Northern Wei Dynasty was also a Hu regime. Although the Northern Wei Dynasty also carried out a relatively thorough Sinicization, the real political system was still much rougher and more primitive than the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

Especially before Yuwentai, the Heyin Incident launched by Er Zhurong slaughtered a large number of upper-level political elites in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Yuwentai, who stood on top of this remnant, naturally had fewer constraints and had much more room for reform. , and thus embarked on a new path of Han and Hu integration, laying the foundation for the prosperity of the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

However, Shen Zhezi faced a different situation. The Eastern Jin Dynasty Bureau he was based on had too many internal bites and fetters. Although he had also absorbed a lot of nutrients from the old system in the past few years for his own growth, but This time in the Jiangdong turmoil, the joining of the Yingchuan Yu family can be said to have declared the bankruptcy of Shen Zhezi's attempt.

Shen Zhezi's greatest advantage lies in his youth, and he doesn't think that he can penetrate and end the centuries-long North-South division in one go with his own attempts, so despite his attempts on this road, But it was never the only goal.Since this road does not work, then change another road.

Although this attempt failed, it also laid the foundation for the next step.At least in the current Jiangdong situation, he has become the only authority.

Of course, with such a strong posture, it is impossible for the current situation to remain unresponsive.First of all, at the court meeting, many Taiwanese ministers criticized Ting Wei for privately imprisoning Zhuge Hui as a violation of etiquette. It is too appalling to directly detain such a ruling official without trial.

But basically all the real Taiwan officials have learned of the existence of Wang Tian's blood book. Faced with this situation, it is difficult for them to express their support. Even if Zhuge Hui is not guilty, at least he is suspected, and at the moment The statement is only to allow it to defend itself, and has not yet entered the real judicial process.

So basically Zhuge Hui has not lost his freedom, and he can leave Shangshutai at any time, but he dare not do it at the same time.As long as he dares to move lightly, he can even be exempted from judicial approval. Immediate arrest and beheading everywhere is a sure result.But if he stayed at Shangshutai, he might still have a chance, although it was very slim.

Without the leader Zhuge Hui, without the solidarity of the Taiwan ministers, even if there were some denunciations, they would be nothing more than meaningless dog barking, and there would be no sound at all.

After that, Jiangdong's rebellion was filed as a whole, which also caused an uproar among the officials.The turmoil that has just passed is simply a muddled matter. If you go deeper, there is almost no clean time in Jinai.

Originally, the officials thought that it was just the aftermath of similar incidents before, punishing the most conspicuous people first, and handling them lightly, but they didn't expect their hands to be so murderous.

Now that the Shen family is the only one in Jinai, blindly resisting is just the next strategy, and perhaps they will put themselves in a dangerous and unpredictable situation, blocking the car with their arms and killing themselves.So the smartest way to do it is to add fuel to the flames and make the matter escalate until it becomes unmanageable, making Shen shy away from it.

Therefore, in the court meeting at that time, all the ministers gave up the proposed proposals and regulations they had prepared before, and instead made a big attack, trying to recruit all the people of the time.

It was precisely because of such a situation that Shen Zhezi formally put forward the slogan of not following the law and not concealing it, and deciding the matter in public. He also served as the governor of Yangzhou and personally presided over the counter-case.

"Holding rituals is the reason why the world is in great order; love is what makes the people peaceful. In this prosperous age and good law, if you follow it easily, the world's disasters are not far away. However, please keep your eyes on the current world. Wang Yeke sends, Shenzhou is broken, Internal and external disputes, up and down disorder, mobs and morons, people living in misery, the sky has eyes, and I can't bear to look closely!"

Shen Zhezi stood up in the middle of the seat in the hall, changed his previous graceful and elegant posture, looked around at the court officials with stern eyes, and said in a loud voice: "If you are a poor man, if you have a serious disease, you still know that in addition to food and drink, you still need medicine and stones. Is this world a good state now? Anyone who knows the micro-management of the T-character, who can pretend to hope for peace? Only by being diligent and courageous, using the law to prevent chaos, using righteousness to ward off evil, using righteousness to kill people, and using violence to punish tyranny, only after this, the king's career can be returned to Shenzhou, the crown and belt can be returned to the right lapel, and there are thousands of people in this world. Shame on EMI!"

These words echoed in the hall, all the ministers had sweat stains on their foreheads, and they were completely speechless.Even the emperor looked at his brother-in-law with a vague and different look.

The emperor sat sleepily and watched his mother die tragically. Yu Shidao was actually a bit lazy. Although he was determined to avenge his mother, in fact he didn't have much confidence.

He has been played by the princes of the times for a long time, and only then does he know how unruly these courtiers who seem to be upright are inwardly. Although he is called a king, he has had the experience of being disobedient and refuted by the courtiers in the past when he was in charge of the government. So that there are shadows in my heart.

Even in the face of the tragic death of his mother and the situation completely collapsed, the only thing that can be done is to avoid seeing and refusing to cooperate.In addition, it is difficult to have more proactive measures.

At this time, seeing his brother-in-law's eloquent words, all the officials in the hall were silent, and a strong sense of substitution arose in his heart, wishing that it was himself who stood in the hall and questioned him in pain.

However, he also knew that this could only be a fantasy, and human endowment and temperament were really a hurdle that could not be overcome.Especially in the current situation, even if he has the courage to follow suit, the effect will probably only be counterproductive.

At this time, the emperor was sitting on the imperial bed, and he couldn't help feeling a strong sense of discomfort in his heart.Although he also felt this way in previous years, it was more of a feeling of embarrassment and anxiety in the face of the officials.But this time the feeling was different, as if he was a daring thief who stole the position that should not belong to him and was caught directly by others, that kind of shame and anxiety.

In the same way, the emperor suddenly recalled that when his mother was alive, she often taught him diligently, taught him to be diligent and intelligent, not to disappoint the court officials, and to bring happiness to the people of the country.The previous emperor just regarded this as distasteful, and let it go after hearing it, because the goals mentioned by the empress mother were too big, so big that he felt distant and unrealistic, and he was too lazy to bother about it.

But now, he seems to see a possibility to benefit the people of the country.As soon as this idea was formed in his mind, it quickly took root and sprouted, and the indelible stubbornness even made him a little terrified, so that even the idea of ​​suppressing this idea would be given to him once it came out. Brings a great sense of moral guilt.

But the emperor also knew that this idea should not be moved lightly, nor could it be easily announced to the outside world, so he could only hide it in his arms. He closed his eyes and seemed to be asleep, but his thoughts drifted far away uncontrollably.

This is the final result of the court meeting. With Shen Zhezi's strong statement and the hidden support of the Taiwanese ministers, they finally set the tone for a thorough investigation of the reverse case.

Once the court meeting was over, the emperor died in Guiyuan, and all the officials dispersed.It's just that Shen Zhezi was still idle before entering Taiwan, but after retiring from the court, he has become the military and political chief in charge of Gyeonggi Honju.

The governor of Yangzhou has his own official office, which is Zhoucheng located on the west side of Taicheng City. It was previously occupied by the Yu family brothers and caused chaos, but now it is Shen Zhezi's current office.It's just that before he arrived in Zhoucheng, he had just accepted various ceremonial seals from the governor of Yangzhou in Taiwan, and issued several government orders in this name.

Also starting on this day, all the counties and counties under the jurisdiction of the Yangzhou Governor's Office were ordered to open their doors to accept all kinds of lawsuits from the government and the public.The great turmoil in Jiangdong in the past involved many aspects of personnel in Taicheng, Suwei, countryside, etc., and the lawsuit was accepted at the same time!
