Rebirth of the scholarly lady

Chapter 364 Opposition
Nan Surou's strategy was initially approved by the emperor, but the emperor was not a person who followed suit after all, so he asked the clerk to summarize Nan Surou's words and send them to the upper study for listening.

The emperor summoned the Minister of Humerus to continue to discuss the issue of the disaster area.

The emperor didn't tell the people about the situation at first, but only mentioned that the people are all witnesses to the evidence of ink corruption. Therefore, the right minister proposed to send an imperial envoy to announce the decree, so that the people can tie the corrupt officials into the capital on their own. .

Nan Surou's strategy of the people's affections was put on hold, and the emperor only followed her ideas and made similar actions. As for the people's affections, this kind of organization must first solve the problem of the victims before it can be slowly established.

After a few days...

In the upper study room, the atmosphere was condensed.

"Qizou Your Majesty, yesterday, the ministers and others have contacted quickly, and all localities have joined forces to arrest corrupt Mexican officials who have evidence. At present, more than 150 principal criminals have been arrested, 780 accomplices, involving 400 family members of old, young, women and children, all of whom are under escort. On the way back to Beijing, there are different routes in different places, not all of them have arrived in Beijing, and some of them have been shelved because of insufficient evidence." Left Prime Minister Sun Xuezhu stated with a cold expression.

Sun Xuezhu was a well-behaved person, and he spoke with a strict eye. After a word, it only made everyone feel that the study room seemed to be haunted by a gloomy wind.

The rest of the officials who were not involved in the matter and did not know the specifics of the situation broke out in a cold sweat when they heard Sun Xuezhu's statement.

Checking a disaster area for corruption, there are more than 6000 people at once. These people are also unlucky, and they just ran into Sun Xuezhu, the king of Hades... However, the real ruthless person is clearly the person who wants to let the disaster victims arrest corrupt officials. Such a ruthless plan?

The number of disaster victims is huge. If there is no military suppression, the rampage cannot be contained by those officials.

Rao, the emperor was already mentally prepared, and he was shocked when he heard this. Sun Xuezhu actually divided the main criminal, accessory criminals, and their family members, and they were all arrested. No wonder the ministers secretly Calling Sun Xuezhu Sun Sanben or the Living King of Hell, he must have three memorials every day, and he is also strict in his work, stern and selfless, he is the Living King of Hell at all.

At this moment, Prime Minister You couldn't see him anymore, he frowned and said, "Prime Minister Sun, the crime is not as serious as the family members, why do you arrest all their family members?"

Sun Xuezhu looked solemn, and said: "Being corrupt, breaking the law, dereliction of duty, dereliction of duty, etc., forgive crimes and punish them. According to the laws of heaven, the nine clans are to be punished. Since they are in their positions and seek their own government, they should understand this very well. Law decree, knowing that they have committed this crime and their family members, they still did this, they must have been psychologically prepared, and the truth is that their family members will also be arrested."

Right Chancellor Pan Yiyang disagreed and said: "The young children among the family members may not know about it. The children are innocent. How can we punish them together?"

"Cut the grass without eradicating the roots and the spring breeze will regenerate. The so-called enmity between parents is irreconcilable. If the family members of the criminals are dissatisfied with the court and wait for an opportunity to retaliate, that will be troublesome. It is better to eradicate the grass and eradicate the troubles forever." Sun Xuezhu said without emotion. bluntly.

The method of this company is really serious enough, and it doesn't matter whether those people really have a mentality of revenge, they are all regarded as resentful, regardless of whether they have committed a crime or not, they will be dealt with severely, which is more tragic than the crime of weaving.

The emperor was already old, and he was quite afraid of such things. He always let the left and the right fight openly and secretly, and he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger's head, listening to the two people's arguments, and finding out what he thought was the most satisfactory solution.

Pan Yiyang snorted coldly and said: "These things should have been less sinful than family members, and waiting for an opportunity to retaliate, that is to commit a crime again, to commit a crime again, of course it is knowing the law and breaking the law, and it is not too late to convict, my heavenly sage is a great country, and the emperor is a wise and holy lord , Is it possible that I am afraid of the revenge of those mere people, if they don't cause trouble, they can live their lives in peace, so that we can show the justice of our law."

Sun Xuezhu glanced at Pan Yiyang, and said: "Master Right, does this mean that the punishment is too severe? The crime of corruption is a serious crime. If you don't give a severe punishment and kill chickens to make an example of monkeys, many officials will follow suit in the future, because they will benefit a lot. The punishment is extremely light, so no one will be afraid!"

The emperor listened from the throne, and said to himself: Pan Yiyang said that Sun Xuezhu would rather kill by mistake than let the punishment be too severe, and Pan Yiyang is suspected of being exonerated... two extremes.

Unexpectedly, just when the emperor was about to respond to Sun Xuezhu's move, Pan Yiyang said again: "Mr. Zuo misunderstood, the truth does not mean that corrupt officials should be punished lightly, the truth means that the crime is not as good as the family members, and should not be implicated, but Of course, none of the guilty ones should be let go. Knowing mistakes and making mistakes, law enforcement and breaking the law are all crimes and cannot be sentenced lightly. How can we prevent such incidents from happening in the future?"

This question was obviously too big, and the officials looked at each other in blank dismay.

Since ancient times, there have been beautiful things and ugly things have appeared. There have been good people, so there have been bad people. When someone is rich, there will be thieves. Avoid talking about it, so when Pan Yiyang raised this question, everyone couldn't think of a decent way to do it.

This involves the legal system, and everyone can't think of any good strategy for a while.

The emperor listened for a long time, and when he heard Pan Yiyang's words, he immediately remembered the "people's feelings" mentioned by Nan Surou a few days ago.

Thinking of that institution, the emperor immediately asked the clerk to submit the things recorded a few days ago for him to observe.

It's just that during this period, the first one who couldn't help it was Zuo Xiang Sun Xuezhu, who took the lead in saying: "Your Majesty Qizuo, everything is always the same. A good law is just a piece of paper in the code, like a castle in the air, if it is not enforced, it is useless."

Sun Xuezhu's words are not unreasonable, but it's still as useless as farting.

Just at this time, the emperor had already recalled what Nan Surou had said, and he took advantage of the gap between Sun Xuezhu's words to ask the clerk to read Nan Surou's previous strategy.

Sure enough, the officials present all looked stupid after hearing this.

Pan Yiyang was the first to jump out and shouted: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, people have sued officials, and there has never been such a thing in the world."

Officials who had always been against Pan Yiyang, now also came out to echo: "Your Majesty, what is the dignity of officials when such legislation is made? Besides, ordinary people are mostly street people, and many of these people have no morals. Wang Jia made a false accusation and accepted it If the officials involved in the case indiscriminately torture and extract a confession, then our personal safety will be seriously threatened."

Someone else said: "Your Majesty, there is no such precedent for my court's laws and regulations. It is so unconventional and unconventional. I am afraid that people's hearts will be unstable. Please think again, Your Majesty."
