Five hundred and thirtieth eight chapters consider non-trivial
"Every official will be a captain, and there will be no prisons for those under the internal history. The prison does not matter whether it is serious or serious." [Second Years of Laws·Placement of Officials]
After Qin Yi walked out of Jingzhao Mansion, he first went back home. Along the way, there seemed to be some gossip on the road, and the friendly neighbors who were usually respectful and kind to him looked at him a little strange at this time. Qin Yi's face was hot, He hurried back home, and before he entered the door, he saw across the yard that Mrs. Du was bending over the well to draw water and rinse a few wilted cabbages.
She looks like she is taking care of the housework seriously, as if she is doing her job as a housewife with peace of mind, and has not lost herself because of the sudden wealth.
Qin Yi sighed suddenly. He suddenly gave up on entering. Instead, he turned around and went directly to the Chang'an County Government Office.
Chang'an ordered Wang Ling to have his meal in the hall. When he heard that Qin Yi was coming, Wang Ling waved the hand holding the chopsticks casually and sat motionless. After Qin Yi was led in by his slaves, Wang Ling began to calm down. After swallowing a mouthful of rice, he greeted politely and said, "You came early today. Have you had your meal?"
Qin Yi was summoned by Hu Miao early in the morning. He was very hungry, but he had no intention of eating. He bowed directly to Wang Ling and said with a tearful voice: "Please save me from the Ming Dynasty!"
Wang Ling sat quietly. He calmly ordered Cang Tou: "Cook a bowl of minced meat for Qin Lieutenant."
After Cang Tou, who was standing by his side, and the servants withdrew knowingly, Qin Yi took the initiative to tell the whole story without waiting for the other party to ask questions.
The more Wang Ling listened, the more frightened he became, and his face became heavier. Finally, when Qin Yi finished speaking, he remained silent for a while, and then quietly said: "I may not be able to help you with this matter, but I will try my best for you."
Hearing this, Qin Yi felt mixed emotions. He returned home in a daze and saw Du Shi mending Qin Lang's clothes. When Du Shi saw him coming, she leaned over and asked, "Have you gone to find the little prince?"
Qin Yi didn't dare to look at her and turned his head away. Du Shi was surprised and asked, "What did you say?"
After asking this question, Du Shi seemed to understand something. She sighed sadly and put down the needle and thread in her hand. She suddenly felt that such a day of sewing was extremely boring.
Wang Ling also had his own difficulties. Although he was a secretary, but because of Wang Yun and other incidents, the emperor's favor for him had already faded away like Gaishun. And Situ Huang Wan, who admired and supported him, was not in the court. , Dong Cheng can almost cover the sky with one hand, and his small Chang'an order can't really help.
But Qin Yi was his trusted subordinate after all, and he couldn't just sit back and watch, so after much deliberation, Wang Ling had no choice but to let Qin Yi's family pack their bags and flee Chang'an temporarily. Everything would wait until the end of the Eastern Expedition. At that time, the emperor, Huang Wan All are in the imperial court, and only by submitting the impeachment memorial yourself can it be effective.
Unexpectedly, Hu Miao had anticipated this delaying strategy early. When Qin Yi and others were packing their things and preparing to go out the next day, Jingzhao County Prime Minister Zuoling brought Fu Jin and other people to say that there was a private settlement in Jingzhao. He escaped and was accused of being sheltered by Qin Yi's family. Qin Yi was wanted to be imprisoned for interrogation.
After Wang Ling learned the news, he rushed to Jingzhao Mansion angrily to argue with Hu Miao. Hu Miao knew his purpose and sneered: "This matter has nothing to do with you. I advise you to stop intervening."
"The villagers have always been peaceful. How could they abandon their farmland and abscond? Zuo Juncheng did not conduct any investigation, but just relied on rumors to report and convict him. Is this the imperial system?" Wang Ling confronted him tit for tat, saying: "The government If you want to impose a crime, aren't you afraid of damaging people's reputation?"
"Wang Yanyun, you have been the commander of Chang'an for too long. All you can see is this city, but you can't see beyond the city walls. This is not good." Hu Miao smiled instead of getting angry. He stretched out his fingers and tapped the table:
"In order to meet the food and fodder requirements for the Eastern Expedition, from this autumn onwards, all the military camps in Guanzhong will have to mobilize half a percent more troops than in previous years. This is approved by the emperor's decree. Even so, there are still some camp households who are unwilling and dare to flee privately...
…The Taiwei Mansion has issued a special official document regarding this, Wang Yanyun, who wants to incriminate the crime, can have solid evidence.”
Wang Ling had heard about this incident. It was said that Dong Cheng originally wanted the army and civilian villages to collect an additional 10% of grain and grass for military needs, but the reply sent by the emperor only allowed the army to increase by half.
Wang Ling would not say anything more about the additional meaning and responsibility of Mintun, not to mention the additional half-percent levy would not be as serious as Hu Miao said.
He had been dissatisfied with Hu Miao for a long time, and now he could not avoid speaking with a bit of resentment: "Qin Yi is in jail. Is it really true that he is sheltering a fugitive? Or is it that the prince does not know that the prince does not grant what he asks for?"
Hu Miao's expression changed and he said sharply: "The 'little prince' must protect Qin Yi?"
Wang Ling couldn't resist the other party's false accusation, so he snorted coldly, turned around and left.
Hu Miao smiled. He knew that Wang Ling had already been defeated. If the fight continued, the other party would have to consider whether it was worth it for just Qin Yi.
But he didn't expect that Wang Ling would see the pros and cons of this matter more thoroughly than he did. Although Wang Ling no longer protested, he had found a strong point in being able to face the powerful and unyielding in the face of trouble.
"What does Yang Kongqu mean?" In the side hall of Chengming Palace, Dong Cheng was very dissatisfied and summoned Fa Yan, the court lieutenant, and asked: "The case situation in Jingzhao Yin is clear and organized, and it has not been reported. He, a court lieutenant, is interfering.
What method? If we really follow his approach, from now on all counties and counties will not have to deal with prison cases and just report them all to the Tingwei!"
According to the Han family system, all crimes such as deception by the county and the state should be reported to Wen Tingwei. The crime for which Qin Yi was arrested was legally classified as a "suspicious prison" where the case was unclear and the evidence was insufficient.
Officials, so this should be the case rather than being decided privately by county officials.
Fa Yan described himself as getting thinner and thinner. He had just finished the morning meal when he was called over by Dong Cheng anxiously. His stomach was a little turbulent. Facing Dong Cheng, he still forced a smile and explained: "According to the system, this is how it should be. Qin Yi's case has nothing to do with it."
If there is any conclusive evidence, it is appropriate for the Tingwei to ask. Moreover... although Duke Yin Hu of Beijing Zhao did not report this case, it was reported by Wang Ling, the commander of Chang'an, on his own initiative."
"Him?" Dong Cheng was confused and said, "What does he repay?"
"This person said that Qin Yi is a captain in the northern part of Chang'an. He has always been peaceful and did not dare to step outside the rules. Now he is sitting in office. If the crime is established, he is also guilty of lax governance. If he is innocent and punished, Wang Ling should be punished.
It stretches straight and straight." Fa Yan's face suddenly broke out into thin sweat, and he said in a weak tone: "Therefore, Wang Ling asked the Tingwei Mansion to investigate carefully to warn future generations."
"Absurd!" Dong Cheng's face was livid, and he said: "Where does he get the power to dare to go beyond his duties and report? This case has been reported to the authorities. Go back and ask Yang Pei to stop, and return the case to Jingzhao for disposal."
Fa Yan was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "I'm afraid Yang Kongqu's temper is not easy to control..."
