"If you examine the merits and demerits, seek for the original and end, then the use of punishment and ritual will be completely separated." [Refutation of Revenge Argument]
"You are a Tingwei. He is just a Tingwei Zheng. How can you not control him?" Yang Pei once served as a prisoner in Hedong. He was unselfish and selfless, and implicated countless powerful people. The people of Hedong are still famous and fearful. After entering the court, he also enforced the law strictly, and acted bravely.
Dong Cheng had also heard of Yang Pei's reputation, so he did not dare to confront Yang Pei directly and simply pushed the matter to the bully Fa Yan: "If you can't control him, it means he is contemptuous of Shangguan.
, or if you govern mediocre and cowardly, I will participate in the impeachment!"
Fa Yan was shocked. He felt a dull pain in his abdomen and could not speak any more, so he had no choice but to plead guilty and retire.
Seeing his groveling manner, Dong Cheng's cold complexion became a little brighter.
Fa Yan endured his physical discomfort and returned to Tingwei's house. He first invited Yang Pei, the official in charge of Tingwei. Yang Pei also had great respect for this Shangguan who had taken care of and promoted him. However, after hearing what Fa Yan had invited, he
Still stick to the principle:
"There may be grievances in this case. Regardless of whether the local government reports it or not, there should be investigation and interference." Yang Pei said with a straight face and a rigid tone: "The Chang'an order was reported beyond the level, which is against the law, and he will be convicted afterwards."
Fa Yan had a headache for a moment, and said earnestly: "Kong Qu! Don't cause this trouble. There are some rumors in Chang'an that cannot be heard. If you offend the captain for this matter and bring harm to yourself, how can you live a good life?"
"I only know how to manage prisons." Yang Pei was unmoved and said coldly: "When the country appointed me as the official, it once said that the most important thing in this position is the word 'zheng'. Enforcement must not only be impartial, but also
Be upright. If I care about favors or my own life, I am committing a crime against the country."
"Hey!" Fa Yan originally thought that Yang Pei didn't understand the whole story behind this matter, but now it seems that the other party not only understood it, but also didn't take it seriously at all.
"If Qin Yi is guilty, the Tingwei Mansion will punish him; if he is wronged, the Tingwei Mansion will give him justice." Yang Pei's angular face seemed to be carved from heavy wood, and he was so cold every time he spoke.
Hard, as if he was reading a verdict to someone: "The country says that the chaos in the world is due to the abolition of etiquette and the relaxation of law. I can't control the abolition of etiquette, but I can control the relaxation of law.
."
Fa Yan was about to say something to persuade him to let go, but he felt a cramping pain in his abdomen. He said "ah" and ran straight into the nearest toilet without waiting for anyone to ask.
Yang Pei frowned, with a rare expression of concern on his wooden face.
Fa Yan did not come back for a long time. Even Yang Pei became anxious and sent someone to the toilet to inquire. After a while, there was a noise. But Fa Yan was too weak to walk after diarrhea. After being helped back,
He lay on the couch panting feebly.
"Master Fa, I have asked someone to hire an imperial doctor. You can relax and rest in peace. I will come back to take care of you later." Fa Yan's only son Fa Zheng is currently far away in Jizhou to participate in the military affairs. He has no one to rely on. Yang Pei has to do what he needs to do.
his guardianship.
After Yang Pei said these words, he was about to go back to handle the case. When he turned around, his sleeve was suddenly pulled by someone.
But he saw Fa Yan lying on the couch, looking straight at him, and said almost in a pleading tone: "Listen to me, no matter what happens, you have to wait until the country comes back."
Yang Pei knew that the old and frail old man in front of him was trying his best to protect him. He had also come up step by step from Situ Peng and Tingwei Zuojian. The officialdom situation was far more profound than Yang Pei knew. It was just a wise way to protect himself.
It didn't work for Yang Pei. He stared at it for a long time and finally fell silent, but firmly pulled back the sleeve he was tugging at.
Fa Yan's eyes were a little disappointed, but more of an indescribable loss.
Not long after, Hua Tuo's disciple Wu Pu, the imperial physician, rushed over with a medicine box. After some diagnosis and treatment, he felt the pulse and said, "Fang Gong just moved violently between calls after eating a full meal. He was injured."
The stomach and intestines are affected. Now that the vitality has been exhausted, it is necessary to recuperate and make up for it. I think these days, in addition to taking medicine, I still need to think less and rest more."
Yang Pei nodded and said calmly: "My father-in-law recovered from typhoid fever last year, and now he is ill again. I really can't work too hard. Just take a leave of absence and go back home, just in time to recuperate and get rid of the disaster." He said with a double meaning, as if he was
I don't want to implicate Fa Yan, so I have to stand in the front alone.
Fa Yan closed his eyes numbly.
Wu Pu prescribed the medicine at this time and let someone take it to fry it. He turned back and asked Fa Yan the cause of his emergency. Yang Pei cherished his words like gold and replied with a few words that were neither salty nor bland, and then dismissed him.
Sent away.
Fa Yan suddenly fell ill, and the authority of Tingwei was naturally taken over by Yang Pei, the second in command. Once he had the highest judicial power of the court, Yang Pei began to investigate Qin Yi's case without any scruples.
Qin Yi was imprisoned for a crime that was not worthy of further investigation. After sending several court officials who were familiar with the names of punishments and laws, and the prison history to interrogate him, Zuo Ling, the prime minister of Jingzhao County, soon became unable to resist. Dong Cheng scolded Yang Pei several times.
, but was refuted by Yang Pei citing laws and regulations, making him speechless and almost unable to get off the stage. Faced with his strong point of refusing to accept hard and soft, not knowing how to compromise, and having no handle, Dong Cheng could only think of using his power to push Yang Pei to death.
Transferred from Chang'an.
"Even if we want to rectify unjust prisons in various counties, according to the system, Ting Weiping should go to the trial. How can we use Ting Weizheng?" Sikong Zhaowen naturally raised objections when the matter was discussed in the Chengming Palace.
: "Figong is seriously ill and the Tingwei Mansion has lost its chief officer. He cannot leave Yang Pei at all times. How can he be transferred at this time? I don't think it's appropriate to do this."
"Guo Gong, the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, has the power to supervise the prisons and can act on his behalf." Dong Cheng said resolutely: "The Tingwei is a high-ranking official with two thousand stones. Now that there is a vacancy, it should be temporarily replaced by someone with a high reputation, not a humble one."
.Someday, when the edict comes from the east and we state that it is wrong, won’t we violate the etiquette and law?”
Zhao Wen's eyes flashed and he laughed softly: "Let's wait a little longer. The Eastern Expedition is important right now, and it is not the time to go to prison."
This point is hard to argue with, but if this goal cannot be achieved, Dong Cheng still has other ways to go.
In the end, things turned out just as he, Dong Feng, Hu Miao and others expected. Faced with life and death in prison, Qin Yi finally chose to compromise before the officials of the imperial court conducted an in-depth investigation. Although he did not plead guilty, he also cooperated with the capital.
Zhao Yin, what makes this matter is that Jing Zhaoyin tried his best to investigate the case before reporting it to Tingwei according to the procedures, and finally solved the mystery, so there was no need to report it according to the procedures.
How could Yang Pei give up after punching him empty-handed? He still pursued Jing Zhaoyin's fault. This recklessness finally angered Dong Cheng. Dong Cheng first asked Guo Pu, the Minister of Punishment, who was also old, to temporarily take charge before the emperor's edict came.
He took charge of the affairs of the imperial court and transferred Yang Pei to deal with the case of the refugees in the villages, so things finally calmed down.
