Saint of the Confucian way

"Since magistrate Lu thinks he is unable to hear the case of Fuxing society, who does magistrate Yan think should be handed over?" Fang Yun looked at magistrate Yan Wu kindly.

Yan Wu didn't answer immediately.

Lu Ming glanced at Yan Wu with a flash of dissatisfaction in his eyes. Then he looked at Fang Yun with respect in his heart, because he understood that Fang Yun deliberately wanted Yan Wu to take over, which was a trap, and then cooperated with this sentence to put Yan Wu in a dilemma.

Yan Wu's purpose is obvious. He will leave the matter in the Taihe government for trial. No matter what the trial result is, he can deal with it in the direction conducive to Qingguo. However, now Lu Ming doesn't want to try the case. Yan Wu either forces Lu Ming to accept it as a Shangguan or tries it himself.

Once Yan Wu is pressed down, it is tantamount to giving Fang Yun an excuse so that Fang Yun can also order as a governor.

If Yan Wu tries by himself, once something goes wrong, Fang Yun will take the opportunity to take him down.

The governor is arbitrary. He doesn't need anything else. He just needs an excuse.

Many officials present have understood the meaning of Fang Yun's words. Some officials are very surprised and even secretly observe the surroundings. They suspect that there are Shangshu and even four phase human elite bureaucrats secretly instructing Fang Yun. No matter how talented a person is, he can't say such words without honing in officialdom for decades.

Yan Wu's forehead exudes light sweat.

Other "Qing officials" are secretly anxious and want to help Yan Wu, but they can really be responsible for this matter. In addition to the county magistrate and magistrate of Taihe Prefecture, only the legal department yamen, the criminal Department yamen, the State animal husbandry Yamen and the governor yamen are firmly grasped by the "King official". Above all, the Dali temple, the Ministry of punishment and the supervision yuan in Beijing can be responsible, that is, the three legal departments.

Neither side wants to refer the matter to the third division for joint examination.

Although the "Qingguan" of Xiangzhou did not take the initiative to admit in a vain attempt to make Xiangzhou belong to Qingguo again, they have long been opposed to the "Jingguan" everywhere. Both sides know what the other party's identity is. Once they come out, they will be besieged by the "Jingguan".

A moment later, Yan Wu said, "since this matter involves disputes between the two countries, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to hand it over to the Justice Department alone. It should be handed over to the ritual department and the Justice Department for joint trial."

Many Qing officials showed satisfaction. A state-owned ritual department and Honglu temple in charge of diplomacy, while a state has no yamen similar to Honglu temple, and some functions of Honglu Temple belong to the ritual department.

The government affairs within a state are in the charge of the State animal husbandry. Under the State animal husbandry, there are various departments in charge of specific government affairs, such as household department, criminal department, ritual department, engineering department, law department, etc.

Each department of a state is a yamen that deals with specific affairs. The State animal husbandry will not try the case in person like the county magistrate or magistrate, except in rare cases.

"Governor Yan is an old saying. I think it should be decided jointly by the Secretary for rites and the attorney general."

"This is the safest policy. After all, it involves hundreds of scholars."

The ritual Department of Xiangzhou has always been the private plot of Qing officials. When Jingguo took over Xiangzhou, it wanted to use Jingguo officials or "Jingguan" who tended to Jingguo to occupy the division and left and right division of each department, but it was strongly rebounded by Qing officials.

Although Qingguan secretly supported Qingguo, they were Xiangzhou people or officials after all. Jingguo court could not force them to leave. Once they were forced to leave, most of the Yamen in Xiangzhou would be paralyzed. What's more, Zuo XiangLiu mountain echoed them in the middle of the court.

As a last resort, Jingguo compromised and gave up the Department of rites to be controlled by the Qing official. At the same time, among the three chief officials of the other departments, the Qing official must be the right secretary, and the left secretary must also be a native of Xiangzhou. Only the Secretary can be held by officials from other states of Jingguo.

Jingguo has made great concessions and promised to gradually increase the proportion of Xiangzhou officials if Xiangzhou is stable in ten years, and is willing to let Xiangzhou people serve as Xiangzhou pastors. The treatment of Xiangzhou officials and scholars is far better than that of Qingguo.

During the reign of the Qing state in Xiangzhou, there were many strict regulations. Not only the state shepherd, governor and court king must be held by the Qing people, but also the secretaries, left secretaries and right secretaries, as well as the governors and Tongzhi of the Qing government.

Even if the county magistrate of Qipin County, at first, 90% of them were held by the people of Qingguo. Later, the "kindness" of Qingguo stipulated that the county magistrate of the third five year plan could be held by the people of Xiangzhou.

In other words, during the reign of the Qing Dynasty, nine of the officials with more than seven grades were from the Qing Dynasty, and 10% were from Xiangzhou. Xiangzhou talents account for a large proportion of officials with seven grades or less.

Jingguo now treats Xiangzhou far more than Qingguo, but even so, those anti Jingguo Qingguan or scholars in Xiangzhou go to the discussion list to wantonly attack Jingguo, saying that Jingguo does not give Xiangzhou people power, that they will always be Qingguo people, that they miss Qingguo, that they fly the national flag of Qingguo even on festivals, kneel down and worship the portrait of Qingjun, and so on.

The most ridiculous thing is that when Jingguo and Qingguo handed over the power of Xiangzhou, some Xiangzhou people even asked Qingguo people to continue to serve as the Secretary of justice, punishment and rites, and opposed the backward Jingguo to tarnish Xiangzhou's just justice, punishment and rites.

As soon as this happened, the world was in an uproar. Many officials of Jingguo said that if Jingguo was really weak, such a thing could be tolerated. Even if it was tolerated, a time limit should be set. If it was accepted completely without restrictions, it would be a national shame for a country. If any monarch ceded the judicial power of a state to other people, it would be better to abdicate and give up the throne.

An official even shouted that if this happened, everyone could say that Xiangzhou did not belong to Jingguo.

The matter would not have continued to make a big fuss, but the leftist party actually supported it, which caused a great disturbance at the Korean meeting.

The biggest reason for the leftist party is to let Xiangzhou set an example. After all, Jingguo was annexed by more than one state. In this way, it can make other states believe that Jingguo will not squeeze and return to the old state of Jingguo.

This reason silences many officials who originally opposed it. After all, this statement is very reasonable.

The normal Jingguo people were very angry and scolded these Xiangzhou people. Only those who were ready to betray the country from the Zuo Xiang party praised these people and Qing officials.

In addition to the Yangtze River flowing through Xiangzhou, there is also a huge tributary of the Yangtze River called Wuxiang river. Therefore, a Jingguo Hanlin criticized those Xiangzhou people for "being willing to be slaves, making Xiangjiang odorless and Xiangzhou like a dog".

On the day of the pilgrimage meeting, Wen Xiang Jiang Hechuan threw his voice on the ground and said, "Xiangzhou was taken back by Fang Xusheng desperately! If Qing officials continue to govern Xiangzhou, they will be drinking his blood and eating his meat! Since Fang Xusheng fought his life to take back Xiangzhou, we will fight our life to protect the integrity of Xiangzhou!"

So far, all officials outside the left party supported Jiang Hechuan, and Jingguo rejected the wonderful application of those scholars in Xiangzhou with a court meeting.

At the time of this incident, Fang Yun was still in the palace examination and was unable to participate in the temple dispute.

But now, Fang Yun is dominated by Xiangzhou.

Fang Yun glanced at Yan Wu and his Yu Qingguan, but his eyes were cold.

"Where the Secretary for rites can hear a case, let the matter be handled by the Justice Department alone. In addition, I will play the punishment hall and the cabinet, take Xiangzhou as a pilot, and divide the supervision department into the supervision department and the state procuratorate. The former supervises all officials, and the latter supervises cases." Fang Yun said.

When some officials heard Fang Yun's first sentence, they originally wanted to object and continue to test Fang Yun's bottom line, but when Fang Yun finished, no one dared to object.
