The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 291 Law and Practice

I sat on the chair next to Quanjue's desk and said, "You have all seen it, this is the benefit that natural science brings to mankind. Whether it is military or civilian, it is inseparable from the development of science and technology. Lin'an University, the Royal Academy of Sciences, etc. In order to become a frontier base for driving the scientific and technological revolution, I intend to launch a technological revolution next year. This revolution will definitely change everyone's perception of the world, bring about earth-shaking changes to our dynasty, and become a major contributor to our dynasty. Whether it is the key to ZTE, "

Shi Yanzhi said: "Your Majesty, in this way, why worry about the immortality of Mongolia?"

I smiled: "Dear dear friends, although the Mongols are currently the number one enemy of our dynasty, the ZTE I mentioned does not mean the complete elimination of Mongolia. Recovering mountains and rivers is only the basis of ZTE. The Song Dynasty stood at the pinnacle of the world for a long time,"

"Top of the World,"

"That's right, my land of China was once called the Celestial Dynasty. The Celestial Dynasty should be in a leading position in all aspects. To achieve this, technology is indispensable. The development of technology is the guarantee of leadership, and education is the foundation of leadership. "

"Your majesty is so talented, and I can't wait," Shi Yanzhi praised sincerely. Among the generals of their older generation, they only wanted to regain the old mountains and rivers. As for what is the pinnacle of the world, they had no concept. The so-called celestial demeanor in the period is well known to everyone. I use the celestial dynasty as a metaphor so that they can understand it better.

"Shi Aiqing, you can visit the military sand table production in the laboratory later. Although it is not high-tech, I think it can become one of the compulsory contents of military universities,"

With the completion of the reorganization of the Forbidden Army and the successful trial production of muskets earlier, I already have a certain degree of confidence in eliminating the so-called invincible Mongolian cavalry. No matter how powerful the Mongols are, the master of cold weapons will not be the enemy of firearms , I believe that the power of science and technology will be far greater than the power of warriors. As a military officer in the United States later said, the Chinese scientist cannot be sent back to China. He can at least equal the strength of three divisions.

As the end of the year is approaching, various departments are busy and busy. The busiest department is the household department. The statistical reports of various data must be completed at the end of the year, so that they have to work overtime every day to make various reports. The official department is busy at the end of the year. Ma Tingluan of the Ministry of Rites is also not easy. It is extremely energy-intensive to arrange for the ministers stationed abroad to return to Beijing to report on their duties. Among the original ministries of the imperial court, only the Privy Council and the Ministry of Education were separated because their main tasks were divided by the Military Affairs Council and the Government Affairs Council. It seemed very leisurely, and people in these two departments knew very well that it would not be long before they would be swallowed up by the new department.

Compared with the previous few months, I was much more relaxed. Originally, I was worried about the battle of Sichuan Gundam attacking Huai and Jian Xiaofu villages, but due to the bad weather in Sichuan this year and the Mongols’ strengthening of defenses, Gundam and others combined Finally, only a small half of the plan was implemented and stopped.

For several days in a row, Fang Ling and I traveled all over the scenic spots in Lin'an, and bought a lot of items, food, and other things. Fang Ling wanted to go back to the family to visit relatives, and it was only natural to bring more gifts. Escort itself is an ancient logistics company. For ordinary people, these luggage are seriously overweight, but in their eyes it is extremely easy.

Of course, I also filled a jar of newly brewed high-strength liquor for Fang Ling. This kind of high-strength liquor may be the most in-demand commodity in Laian City recently. In Tongle Building, only one jar of liquor is provided every night, and each table Customers are limited to one bowl. Xiao Tian told me that this is the hunger selling method he learned from me. In fact, the first batch of liquor that Quanjue brewed was only about ten jars. How good the business is, no less than when MSG was just launched.

Reluctantly, Fang Ling said goodbye to me, took the big bags and small bags, and returned to his hometown to celebrate the New Year with the main personnel of the Chengwei Escort. The Spring Festival transport army has existed since ancient times. It is walking on foot, and the time spent on the road is much longer. Although there are fewer people on the move, the degree of hardship is even more difficult, especially when encountering bad weather. It is difficult, and it is inevitable to go home for the New Year. This is the Chinese people's attachment to home, which has not changed for thousands of years.

On the night I sent Fang Ling away, I received an investigation report about Jiang Yundi from the Dragon Yat Intelligence Department. Shen Mo came to do it.

"Officials, please see Mr. Yuan." Just as I was about to write a memorial, I heard Xiaoqi come to report.

"Really, Xuan,"

Yuan Zhi came here at night, so naturally he would not aim at nothing.

"Your Majesty, this is the investigation report on Jiang Yundi's case," Yuan Ji said, before handing me a report.

After reading it, I roughly understood the reason.

Jiang Yundi has been an official for many years, and has never been able to buy a house in Lin'an. His wife is the daughter of a large family in Lin'an City. The independently managed project happened just after my strict anti-corruption order. Jiang Yundi was worried that there would be no chance in the future, so he made up his mind and accepted a house and utensils as a gift from the contractor.

Seeing me finish reading, Yuan Ji said: "Your Majesty, although this matter is very clear, the only strange thing is that the big shopkeeper of the contractor, that is, the person who gave the bribe died of drinking too much a few days ago."

I'm a little surprised: "Drinking too much,"

"Exactly,"

"The concentration of liquor on the market is not very high, how could it be?"

"Your Majesty, the shopkeeper's only hobby is drinking. A few days ago, it coincided with his 68th birthday. While excited, he drank a few cups, and then went west that night. According to the news obtained by Longya, he treated the big shopkeeper. The doctor said that the shopkeeper’s body has been hollowed out by alcohol, and it is a miracle that he lived to be 68 years old.”

"In this way, it can be regarded as a normal death,"

"Judging from the current situation, it is indeed true,"

It seems that everything is reasonable, and the truth is often hidden behind the appearance of no loopholes. This is my experience in reading detective novels in later generations. If there is something else hidden, what is the purpose? Jiang Yundi is just a householder The doctor, usually keeps a low profile, hardly has any ill-will with others, could it be that I am neurotic.

I thought about it, and said: "Sir, let's continue to investigate this matter secretly, I always think it's too coincidental."

"Yes, Your Majesty, I understand," Yuan Ji said, "Your Majesty, did the imperial censor Chen Yizhong say that his source of information is?"

I shook my head, but then I said with a thought: "It is said that the report is made anonymously, sir, could it be?"

"Your Majesty, I'm just guessing whether it might have something to do with Mr. Chen,"

"Chen Yizhong is considered an important member of the court, so there's no need to make trouble with a little doctor, Jiang Yundi, Jiang,,,,,,"

"That's right, Your Majesty, at the beginning of October, Jiang Shangshu once went up to the Dao, and the grand master once came to court for a few days, which was really against the etiquette of the monarch and his ministers. Although His Majesty did not expressly express it that day, I think that Jia Sidao would hold a grudge against Jia Sidao. In addition, Jiang Shangshu With Jia Sidao's disobedience every time, with Jia Sidao's heart, he will inevitably accumulate anger and seek to chase him away. However, Chen Yizhong was promoted to the court because of Jia Sidao's strong recommendation. The connection may be established or not. "

"Well, it's just that I believe that Jiang Wanli was not involved, so what can Jia Sidao do?"

"Your Majesty, I also believe that Jiang Shangshu is a man. Although we have no joint responsibility, Jiang Shangshu only governs Cheng Zhu Neo Confucianism, so he will not allow himself to be unclean, and he will not allow the people around him to be dirty. Jiang Yundi is his nephew. , if the minister is Mr. Jiang, he can only resign as a clear and innocent person."

"Well, what you say is right, Mr.

The interrogation report of Dali Temple was submitted at the court meeting the next day, with the joint signatures of Jia Sidao, the Criminal Ministry, and Yushitai. It was the same as the investigation results of the Longya Intelligence Department. Admitted to accepting bribes.

"Your Majesty, how should we deal with this case," Dali Temple Secretary Qin Mi said.

"Qin Aiqing, how should we deal with it according to our court's laws?"

"Return to Your Majesty, according to the law of our court, if the amount of corruption and bribery reaches more than 500 taels, the death penalty can be imposed,"

"How much bribes did Jiang Yundi accept?"

"Your Majesty, because the bribe Jiang Yundi received was mainly housing, based on the current housing prices in Lin'an City, including some of the furniture, the total price is between 300 taels and 400 taels."

When I heard that the total value of Jiang Yundi's bribes was more than 300 taels, I saw that Jiang Wanli's nervous expression eased slightly.

"Apart from this time, does Jiang Yundi have any other illegal acts?"

"Your Majesty, it has been verified that there is no,"

"Well, Qin Aiqing, the case of accepting bribes of 300 taels, according to the laws and practices of our dynasty, how will your Dali Temple punish you?"

"Your Majesty, this,,,,,,"

I saw Qin Mi hesitating, and said loudly: "Qin Mi, tell me."

Qin Mi hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, according to the law, you can be sentenced to imprisonment for 15 years or more. If you follow the usual practice, this, this bribery case of more than 1000 taels will basically not, and will not be sentenced," said Later, Qin Mi's voice became smaller and smaller.

I immediately understood the reason for Qin Mi's evasive words. My way of asking questions made him feel embarrassed, because the results of dealing with it according to the law and according to the usual practice are completely different.

More than 1000 taels of silver totaled about 50 yuan in later generations, which was nothing to the ministers in the court. In the previous court where corruption was prevalent, it might be regarded as an "upright official".

I said with a stern expression: "Dear dears, listen to me. I don't want to care about the previous practice, but from now on, my court must try and judge cases according to law, whether it is Dali Temple, the Ministry of Criminal Justice, or all levels. If the government cannot decide the case according to the law, it will be punished by the law,"

"Yes, I will obey the order,"

"Your Majesty, Chen Jiang Wanli has a book to play,"
