Chapter 197 Courage
Although the empress went to court every day, Su Yu had no chance to go to court.If you want to see the queen, you can only wait for the next court and go to the apse to apply for an audience.But you can't be hasty when you see the queen, you have to come up with a decent memorial no matter what.

Su Yu racked his brains to think about it.Later, I went to the imperial censor's room to read the government information, trying to find some "problems" of sufficient level.

……

……

The queen empress issued a death order, requiring the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Jingzhao Mansion to review the more than 600 grievance complaints within one month.Those who dare to tamper with, omit, or neglect will be dismissed from their posts, and the relevant responsible personnel will be executed.

Tang Zhen said long ago that Prime Minister Meng Danqing has the heart to govern the country.If this is not the case, I am afraid that Empress Cao's proposal will be killed by at least half.Even if the prime minister has the heart to govern the country, he still has to protect the interests of the powerful.What's more, Tang's and Ximen's are also fighting for power.Therefore, every government decision is a battle between the imperial power and the three great powers.

The 19-year-old Empress Cao, with the three-year-old prince, fought with the three princes, having a great time.After a lot of verbal discussions, a decision can finally be made.The Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice, the Minister of Justice, and the three ministers of Dali Temple are all three powerful people. Even if a problem is found, they cannot be killed, but they can be dismissed.

Cao Yuzan also needs to protect some people, such as Zhang Yishou, Yin of the Jingzhao Mansion, who is the father of Xuanjia general Zhang Yunlong. He cannot be killed, but if he has problems, he will also be dismissed.

After reaching an agreement with the three princes, more than 600 unjust case documents were issued to the three major government offices.

The retrial of the unjust case requires a huge workload, but the manpower is insufficient, and the three government offices are complaining.Empress Cao gathered more than 370 students who had been admitted to Jinshi in the past ten years but were not arranged to be officials, and established the "Bus Project".Cao Sheng, the director general of Xuanjia, was ordered to supervise, and sent troops to cooperate with the "bus project" to quickly launch an investigation.Except for the three Dukes, all the officials of the Liang Dynasty, no matter how big or small, resisted and directly marched to the door.

All of a sudden there was a sudden turmoil in the officialdom, everyone was in danger, some even ran away and some committed suicide. At this moment, Su Yu finally found a reason to meet the queen.

Su Yu thought that although the queen made some concessions in consideration of the feelings of the three great powers, she was still a bit arrogant.It's like drawing a bow too full, it is easy to break.

Su Yu suggested to the queen to give officials who had made mistakes a chance to self-examine and surrender.Anyone who self-inspects and surrenders, unless the nature is extremely bad, must be dealt with leniently.Even if the nature is bad, it is guaranteed that the death penalty will not be imposed, let alone the family members.It is also necessary to set up a reporting system, and those who report meritorious deeds can redeem their crimes.Those who commit minor crimes and make great achievements should also be rewarded and promoted.Doing so will greatly speed up the work efficiency.Otherwise, the officials will be determined to hide and destroy the evidence, and it will be difficult to find out many old things, which will make the goal of redressing the grievances defeat.

After reading the memorial, Cao Yuzan said: "Su Yushi's words are pertinent, but someone in the court has already said something similar, and I didn't agree. The reason why I didn't agree is because now the officialdom is full of warts and carbuncles. If you want to To cure a disease requires drastic measures. The palace wants to use this opportunity to carry out a big cleansing. And let 370 new officials participate in it, so that they can see the tragic end of those corrupt people with their own eyes, so as to serve as an example to others.

It is also necessary to reorganize the way to become an official. All officials above the eighth rank must pass the imperial seal and withdraw the power of appointing officials from various provinces and governments.Since then, when he became an official, he was only selected from the imperial examination.The three big clans recommend talents, and each family is not allowed to exceed ten people each year.Even if they are recommended, they have to pass an exam specially prepared for them, and use according to their ability. "

Hearing this, Su Yu sighed for a while, Cao Yuzan was no longer the former Miss Cao.At that time, Ms. Cao came to her "little uncle" to ask for test questions. She was so cute and cute.Now the empress is sitting behind the curtain, a terrifying aura breaks through the curtain and rolls out.Moreover, Su Yu discovered that Empress Cao was actually a hawk.

Regarding the affairs of the government, Su Yu will stop at the point.His main purpose here is not to persuade the queen.When handing the booklet to the queen, there was a small note hidden in the booklet.No one else could see that note except Li Wantang and Cao Yuzan.

The reason for doing this is to deceive others.As soon as I came in, I said a lot of official words first, so that it seemed solemn and reasonable.Otherwise, he would be criticized sooner or later if he came to see the queen just because he was a fart.In fact, Cao Yuzan was also waiting for Su Yu, and even prepared a secret letter for Su Yu.The secret letter was returned to Su Yu along with the return memorial.And Su Yu's petition was rejected.

In the small note to the queen, Su Yu mentioned four detainees who were awaiting trial in the Prison of the Ministry of Punishment, and hoped that Queen Cao would release them.Cao Yuzan only asked Li Wantang to do this.Then Li Wantang came out of the hall and asked Su Yu about his situation.After learning about the situation, he wrote a letter and asked the little eunuch to take Su Yu to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to fish out the four of them.

Afterwards, Su Yu arranged the four little flag leaders in the Honghei Temple.

Seeing the four of them being fished out by Hall Master Su, all the monks in the main altar were delighted, and Tu Biao was even more delighted.

Su Yu said to Tu Biao: "I have made new household registrations for the four of them, and changed their names and surnames from then on. Let the four of them leave Luoyang as soon as possible. Isn't there a shortage of people in Jukuishan now? Let them live there, and they are not allowed to participate in the development of Luoyang. any activity."

Tu Biao was puzzled: "Why?"

Su Yudao: "The empress bailed them out, if they make another mistake, they will be slapping the empress in the face."

Tu Biao immediately said: "Understood."

Su Yu unfolded Cao Yuzan's secret letter and looked at it. It only provided an address, and asked Su Yu to go to the saddle shop at No. [-], East Seventh Lane, Shangshanfang at midnight to contact a person named Zhang Mi.

Su Yu burned the note: "Tell brothers, starting today, collect evidence of Prince Yu Zhao Yulong's crime. As long as the evidence is sufficient, I will sue him as the censor and give my brothers this bad breath. By then, The leg of Li Heng, the snakehead of Jingxingfang, must be broken, and the territory stolen by Ye Wuliang must be returned."

Tu Biao looked excited, and couldn't help but feel a little worried: "Su Tang is doing his best to serve the divine religion, and the brothers all see it in their eyes and take it to heart. It's just... Su Tang must not be eager for quick success. Offending the prince is no joke , in case you are killed by Zhao Yulong instead, the divine religion loses a pillar, and the gain outweighs the loss. Please Su Tang put the overall situation first."

Of course Su Yu would not tell Tu Biao about his conspiracy with Empress Cao, although Tu Biao was very trustworthy.Tu Biao didn't know that Empress Cao was behind this matter, so it's not surprising that he was worried.

Moreover, Su Yu also believed that Empress Cao wanted to touch Prince Yu not only because Zhao Yulong insulted Cao Sheng in the street.There must be other reasons behind this.And that reason was beyond Su Yu's ability to find out.But no matter what the reason is, Empress Cao is going to move Zhao Yulong now, and her attitude is very firm.

In addition, at this time, Cao Yuhan is not alone in his backstage, after all, he is still the son-in-law of the Tang family.If Prince Yu wanted to touch the Tang family, he first had to look at An Guogong Tang Zhen's face.

Above the court, with the protection of Empress Cao and Tang Zhen, Su Yu felt that he was safe in the official world.In terms of danger, it mainly comes from the dark.But when it comes to dark places, who else is darker than "Li Zuoshi".

Seeing that Tu Biao cared about himself and the overall situation, Su Yu was very satisfied.After saying something to comfort Tu Biao, he expressed his loyalty to the divine religion, and then left gracefully.

Everyone looked at Hall Master Su's back and worshiped him more and more.Tu Biao couldn't wait to run to the back room, and told Jianglong Luohanmei Hongshan and Tang Lian who came here, all three of them sighed at the courage of Hall Master Su.
