Reborn Wu Dalang

"Okay, let me tell you about the situation of the Ministry of Law." Lin Chong stood up, nodded at everyone, and said.

He talked about the situation of the Ministry of Law!The Ministry of Law is completely different from the Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The Ministry of Military Affairs and the Ministry of Economic Affairs already had a deep foundation before they were formed. Huarong and Li Gang have a large number of elites who deal with military and civil affairs, while the Ministry of Law does not. On any basis, the Ministry of Law can be said to be completely new!During this period of time, the Ministry of Law has only had a preliminary organizational structure!

Now the Ministry of Law has been divided into two parts, one part is responsible for formulating laws and hearing cases, and Lin Chong is in charge, the other part is responsible for monitoring the situation in various places and collecting evidence for cases, and this part is in charge of Dai Zong!These two parts are respectively equivalent to the Supreme Court and the Supreme Procuratorate in later generations, separating the rights of trial and investigation, which is more conducive to justice.

As for Dai Zong, he was originally the deputy director of the intelligence department of the Northern Military Department. Since the establishment of the Ministry of Law, Wu Dong transferred him to the Ministry of Law as the deputy minister!Dai Zong has been handling intelligence work for many years and is very experienced in investigation and evidence collection!In addition, Dai Zong also likes this kind of shady work. He seems to be very talented in this area. When he was in the intelligence department, he often secretly investigated officials' intelligence and reported it to Hua Rong and Wu Dong.Now, Wu Dong naturally couldn't waste his talent.

"The Ministry of Law is mainly organized this year. In addition to the headquarters of the Ministry of Law, we have also sent people to various places, or transferred talents from various places to the headquarters! The courts in various places will not be managed by the local government in the future, but only by the law. Managed by the Ministry of Justice! Courts in various places can monitor the government and even try local officials." Lin Chong said.

"Very good!" Wu Dong nodded.

China has never practiced "judicial independence" since ancient times. In ancient times, county magistrates governed localities and examined cases at the same time, as did magistrates above county magistrates.Even in later generations, in the era that Wu Dong traveled through, there were independent "courts" and "procuratorates" in name, but in fact, courts and procuratorates must obey local leaders!At this time, Wu Dong is completely independent of the judiciary. The Ministry of Law has independent judicial power, and all local governments are not allowed to interfere!

For this matter, Hua Rong, Li Gang and others all agree, they all think this is a shortcut to achieve political clarity!Throughout the dynasties, an important reason why corruption has been rampant is that the judiciary is not independent. Officials from all over the country have also served as athletes and referees. Naturally, they are rampant and no one can control them!The so-called law was just a decoration in many dynasties!

"What plans do you have for next year?" Wu Dong asked.

"Next year will mainly be the construction of courts and supervisory departments in various places! Next year we will establish provincial courts and supervisory departments in each province, and then the central government will manage the provinces, and the provinces will manage the states and counties! Courts and supervisory departments at all levels from the central to the local Departments must study the law carefully, and we have to conduct law examinations to eliminate a group of unqualified officials! Also, next year, we will decide to transform the "New Military Law" into civil law, and strive to formulate a real civil law. , let the civil law gradually separate from the military law." Lin Chong said.

"Great Governor, our Liangshan is a military country! The whole country, from top to bottom, including every commoner, is a member of the 'army'! Only in this way can we unite as one and conquer more places! Changing it to civil law is afraid that it will affect our fundamental national policy." Hua Rong said suddenly when he heard this.

Now there is no real civil law in Liangshan, but a "new military law" adapted from the military law to govern the people!Now, the Ministry of Law is going to make changes to the "New Military Law".

"I think the military state policy needs to be changed! We are going to war now, but the war will end sooner or later! We can't keep the military state forever, don't you think? If we continue to implement the military state, I am afraid that Liangshan will repeat the mistakes of the Qin Dynasty!" Li Gang He opened his mouth abruptly.

In fact, he has wanted to say this for a long time, and now he finally has the opportunity to speak!

He believes that Liangshan cannot always use soldiers and military law to rule the country!The ending of soldiers and military rule of law may be the same as that of the Qin Dynasty. The fighting power of the army is unmatched, but the country will not last long!

He feels that the whole country needs a broader political environment. Only in this way can the vitality of the people be rejuvenated and the economy, technology, and culture develop more rapidly.

Of course, many militaristic spirits still need to be continued, such as loving the country and the nation, such as the spirit of bravery, the spirit of law, etc.!But the military system must be changed, and the country cannot slowly become rigid!

At that moment, Huarong and Li Gang began to debate there!Hua Rong believes that the military system is the best way to enhance the combat effectiveness of the army and national cohesion, but Li Gang believes that the military system restricts the thinking of the people and will limit the development of the country in the future.

"You guys go down and think about it carefully, and vote to decide it later! Today is the end of the year, and we are mainly summarizing the work of last year! Let's continue." Wu Dong interrupted the debate between the two, and said.

It is imprudent and inappropriate to vote for a major matter related to the country's fundamental national policy, such as the military system, without careful consideration, research, and discussion!Besides, even if such a fundamental policy is to be changed, it needs to be transitioned slowly, and it will take a long time to change. This is a huge project.

"Governor, I have something important to report!" At this moment, Dai Zong, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Law, stood up and said.

"What is it?" Wu Dong asked.

"Grand Governor, although the Ministry of Law has only been established for a few months, we have already investigated and dealt with 180 major cases! Among them, 96 cases involved official corruption, of which 3 occurred in Korea, and 2 occurred in Yan Yun, the remaining 91 incidents all happened in Hedong Province!" Dai Zong said.

"Oh!" Wu Dong was taken aback.

Several military ministers started discussing one after another!Lin Chong frowned, and so did Zhu Wu!Although the two of them have left Hedong, but Hedong has been under their rule for many years, and now that there are so many corruption cases in Hedong, they also feel ashamed.

"These 91 corruption cases involved more than 150 officials from Hedong! Among them, more than 50 were officials who were promoted in the past few years, and 100 were officials who were personally appointed by Hu Yanzhuo since he became the governor of Hedong Province. Most of these more than 100 officials are his cronies, they were people brought from the Song Army when he took refuge in Liangshan!" Dai Zongdao.

"Go to the Ministry of Law and get the relevant files!" Wu Dong said calmly with a livid face.

Right now Dai Zong went to fetch the file, but the room was very quiet.Everyone knew that this was a big event, and everyone began to think about it.

After a quarter of an hour, Dai Zong came back in a big stride, and he put the dossier in front of Wu Dong.

Wu Dong read it first, he read a copy and gave it to Hua Rong, then Li Gang, then Wu Yong, Zhu Wu and others.

"Great governor, Hu Yanzhuo is a corrupt and incompetent man who employs private individuals! And...he is also involved in corruption!" The room was still silent, at this moment Dai Zong gritted his teeth and spoke again.

"Say!" Wu Dong took a deep breath and said.

"Last year, more than 200 million taels of silver were paid for the repair of the Yellow River in Hedong, of which 10 taels were intercepted by Hu Yanzhuo! I have been investigating these days, and I found that the 10 taels of silver were used by him to build courtyards! Hu Yanzhuo Many of his subordinates are evil! Wang Qiang, the prefect of Puzhou, just took office, and raped dozens of women in just a few months! There is also Li Yu, an official from Fenyang, who clearly knows Liangshan’s land policy , They snatched the land from the farmers! These people disregarded the law, I investigated and reported it to Mr. Lin, and hoped that Mr. Lin would deal with it! But Mr. Lin did not deal with any of it!" Dai Zongdao.

"Brother, is there such a thing?" Wu Dong asked, looking at Lin Chong.

"Yes, but I think we should investigate carefully, investigate several times, and make a decision only after there is no doubt." Sweat dripped from Lin Chong's face.

He does know about this, but he has been in Hedong for many years and has a good relationship with the officials in Hedong!Especially Hu Yanzhuo, he almost treats him like a brother, even if Hu Yanzhuo really proves that there is corruption, he will find it difficult to deal with Hu Yanzhuo... He thought that he was the minister of the Ministry of Law, and he will suppress this matter first, and then he will deal with it later. He tried to solve it, but he didn't expect Dai Zong to expose this matter.

Dai Zong had no expression on his face at the moment, but he was ecstatic in his heart.He knew that Wu Dong hated corruption. Now that there were so many corruption cases in Hedong and Lin Chong didn't deal with them, Wu Dong would definitely deal with Lin Chong. He might become a minister of the Ministry of Law by then.

Wu Dong looked at Lin Chong and Zhu Wu, and frowned.Both of these two people came from Hedong. Under the management of these two people, Hedong seems to have not developed very well.On the surface, Hedong is still full of vitality, but in fact it has shown signs of decay.The two of them and many officials in Hedong are not much different from the officials in the old days.

Wu Dong even doubted now, was it right or wrong to let Lin Chong be the minister of the Ministry of Law?

Lin Chong is soft-hearted!The legal department is really a bit...

"Tell me, how should we deal with the matter in Hedong?" Wu Dong said.
