Section 19: Kou Zhun suffers
There are ghosts, there are sins.
Copy first, then trial, and then convict.
Liu An stopped copying the fifth house and his official appointment letter arrived.
Liu An wrote a document and asked him to post it on the doors of all the officials in the Sansi.
In a word, you should surrender yourself, and surrender yourself to reduce your crime. If you don’t surrender, let me Liu An copy it, the crime will be even higher. If you are innocent, please report to the Ministry of Personnel. If you are innocent, you will be successful. The Ministry of Personnel will arrange a new official position.
That night, eleven people knelt in front of Kaifeng Mansion.
This is a confession.
Late at night, Liu An confiscated two more deadly hard-core factions.
The number of people kneeling in front of Kaifeng Mansion increased to 17.
The three departments are from the chief envoy, deputy officer, judge, and financial officer. About one-fifth of them are guilty, and the rest are minor mistakes. How to punish Liu An is ignored.
After he finished his work, the next thing was the affairs of Zhao Yanchang, the Censor General, in the court.
What Liu An was concerned about was to control the Three Water Divisions by himself and then manage the Navy of the Song Dynasty.
The next morning, Liu An went to court.
As Quan Zhizhi Kaifeng Prefecture, Liu An is temporarily a court official.
The emperor walked into the main hall and had not yet reached the imperial throne. The first sentence was: "Sir Liu handled such a big case in one day. I am very happy, I am very happy."
Liu An came out: "As a minister, I am worried about what the officials are worried about, what the officials are worried about, what the officials are worried about. It is my duty to do what the officials are responsible for and what the officials are working hard for. Although I am temporarily appointed as the official in Kaifeng Prefecture for one month, this month, I should do my duty. I have no meritorious service, but I have only done my duty."
"Okay, okay, okay." The emperor was overjoyed: "Come here, write down the words of Mr. Liu and copy all the officials in Bianliang City."
Kou Zhun stood up at this time: "The official, the important criminals of the three departments have been arrested, and the officials requested the case for trial."
The smile on the emperor's face froze on his face.
But in just a moment, although the smile on the emperor's face was a little fake, he was still smiling.
The emperor said: "Then, Grandpa Kou will work hard and be the chief official of Kaifeng Prefecture and will be the chief judge of the case."
"I will definitely handle this case." Kou Zhunshi Li was about to retreat, but he saw the emperor standing up: "Three departments are reorganized, I recommend Zhao Jingshi to be appointed as the tax department envoy, Xiang Gong also serves as the Finance Department envoy, and Duke Lu decided to review."
Kou Zhun was stunned.
Originally, he believed that the heads of the three departments were shared by the three ministers, but who would have no business for him?
After the emperor finished speaking, Zhang Qixian, who was in conflict with Kou Zhun, immediately stood up: "I'm going to discuss it."
Wen Zhongshu and Wang Dan also stood up: "I'm going to discuss it."
The emperor smiled and pointed at Hu Dan: "Sir Hu, I heard that there is a disaster in Xiazhou in winter. You go to the people on my behalf. I have some explanations and leave the court in the study."
"I received the order." Hu Dan made a statement to show his respect and then retreated aside.
Kou Zhun was very upset.
He just didn't want Liu An to take the matter of Quanzhi Kaifeng Prefecture for a month. Liu An was too capable of stealing the limelight, and Liu An became more and more disobedient.
Liu An had already retreated to the court, and he didn't even look at Kou Zhun.
What is a good minister?
Li Han founded the Xianping rule for the Song Dynasty, but he was a peace faction who was determined to seek perfection.
What is right and what is right and wrong.
What is loyalty and what is traitor?
What is good and what is delusion.
Who can tell it clearly?
You, Kou Zhun, are a famous minister throughout the ages, but you, Kou Zhun, can say that although Zhang Qixian is as timid as a mouse, Li Han is not considered a good minister if he is afraid of the enemy as a tiger.
If you wear shoes on your feet, it is good to be comfortable.
It is beautiful, expensive, and gorgeous, and it is not comfortable.
The morning court ended in peace, and 90% of the officials in the court were very satisfied with the results of today's discussion.
Zhao Yanchang is fair and honest, and is the most suitable candidate for the tax management department. Wang Dan is the most supportive of this, and Li Yan also supports it.
Lu Mengzheng and Li Wen both admired their character, and the general review was also suitable.
Xiang Minzhong is one of the three major players, and it is very appropriate to manage the financial expenditure matters of the Song Dynasty.
You Kou Zhun, the chief envoy of the Privy Council, are inappropriate to take charge of the army and then manage financial power.
In the afternoon, the emperor's study.
Hu Dan arrived, but saw that the secretary was under the supervision of Qian Ruoshui.
Qian Ruoshui and Hu Dan knew each other, and they had a good relationship. They greeted each other but no one spoke. They stood silently outside the bookstore.
Liu An, after eating at the emperor's imperial kitchen, arrived at the study.
Liu An asked the two to come in, but they refused together.
Before the emperor arrived, they were unable to enter the study as ministers. Liu An was different. He was studying in Chongzheng Hall and was responsible for organizing official documents for the emperor. Liu An could enter, but they couldn't.
In a short while, the emperor, Li Han and Lu Mengzheng arrived, and they entered the house.
In the study, the emperor sat down.
Li Weng said, "Tell me three small things. This secret color of Goryeo is the best in the world, which is very bad. The official told Scholar Liu to respond. I believe that soon, the number one in the world is still from my Song Dynasty. The porcelain originated from the Central Plains and flourished from the Central Plains. There is no reason why the number one in the world is in the small country of Goryeo."
Everyone shouted in unison: "The official is wise."
After everyone else shouted, Li Heng and others continued, "This second thing is that Xiazhou sword is also called the world's number one. Mr. Hu went to Xiazhou to investigate secretly, and did not care about money, craftsmen, craftsmen, and workshops. As long as it is necessary, secretly bring them back to Bianliang. The official believes that the world's number one must also belong to me."
"I understand, I will definitely live up to what I hope." Hu Dan understood.
Everything about peace is empty, and what the emperor wants is the top sword-casting craftsman of Dangxiang people.
It is no secret that the emperor has good face in the court.
The number one in the world is not in the Song Dynasty. The emperor has no face to do something, which is understandable.
Hu Dan already had a plan in his mind and knew how he should do it.
Li Wen continued to say the third thing: "Shui Sanshi, the tax revenue last year was less than 200,000 guan. In Lingzhou, there were more than 600,000 guan in tax revenue. Next year, along with military protection expenses, it will reach 1.5 million guan in various incomes. Mr. Liu recommended Qian Shaojian to the official family. You go to the Water Sanshi to investigate whether the Water Sanshi had dereliction of duty and whether there was any corruption."
"I, I should live up to the Jiaozuo of the officials." Qian Ruoshui almost threw himself on the ground.
He is still young, only forty-two years old this year.
Qian Ruoshui was very excited and finally changed from being responsible for managing books to having a promising job.
Historically, he had the opportunity to join the Privy Council this year and then died in an accident.
Liu An brought him out of Bianliang, which could be regarded as saving his life.
After the official talk, Lu Mengzheng stepped forward and asked, "Officials, why don't you mention the pepper incident in the court today?"
The pepper had been transported back to Bianliang, and there were as many as 800 stones on the ship to the warehouse, and there were many things that I didn't know. Lu Mengzheng just didn't understand, so this matter was not a trivial matter.
To put it bluntly, the Ryukyu people deceived the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, which is a big deal.
