It is certainly feasible for Fang Xuanling to write like this, and it even shows that he is serious about his work, but in this way, his work efficiency will be much slower than others.
Li Zhiyun glanced at him and remained silent.
Well, Fang Xuanling's work efficiency is not slow, far surpassing that of Li Shuliang.
Seeing him writing like this, Li Zhiyun didn't say anything immediately, but wanted to see if he would insist on writing like this. With the relationship between Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui, it is impossible for the former not to know how to work in Zhengshitang.
The political hall was very quiet, with only the sound of paper being turned, and occasionally the sound of Prime Ministers discussing with each other.
Li Zhiyun is always busy at work, even when he is not busy. After all, with the wisdom of six prime ministers, he can take a look at the methods given by the prime ministers to deal with many things and feel that there is no problem, so he can get over it.
Of course, this is interesting. If the king of future generations is greedy for pleasure, big things will happen sooner or later. If nothing else, let’s take the memorial in Li Zhiyun’s hand right now.
Shouzhou was hit by floods, and he begged the court to allow local organizations to open canals and dredge the rivers.
The suggestion given by the Prime Minister was to order officials from the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Civil Affairs to organize money and food and go to work. Originally, there was no problem in handling it this way, but the problem was that at the end of last year, the memorial submitted by Shouzhou stated that the warehouse was full.
The people were prosperous. But in this memorial about the flood, there was no mention of the charity warehouse at all.
The emperor who doesn't care will definitely give him a "but" directly.
Then what?
The local government was greedy for food from the warehouse.
It is impossible for the Prime Minister to cover everything, and they may not be able to remember the summary report of a state last year.
But the emperor must remember, otherwise the people below will deceive the people above and use the public to enrich themselves, and sooner or later the people will riot.
Or, if there is indeed no food in the free warehouses in Shouzhou, it means that last year the governor of Shouzhou submitted a memorial saying that the free warehouses in the state were full was a lie!
Li Zhiyun took up his pen and wrote down the comments.
‘Instruct the Yushitai to follow closely to inspect Yicang and search for the people.’
This is a small matter and does not need to be discussed specifically. Only when the Prime Minister encounters a major issue and has no suggestion, will he suggest that everyone discuss it together.
There are no major events in Datang at the moment, they are all small things.
"Your Majesty," Du Ruhui said.
"What's the matter?" Li Zhiyun raised his head, and several others also stopped writing.
Du Ruhui picked up the memorial and gave it to the emperor. He cupped his hands and said, "I don't know how to deal with this matter."
Li Zhiyun opened the memorial and looked it up, and found that it was related to murder.
The cause was that a man in Cangzhou returned from hunting and found that his wife was having an affair with someone else. His old father was furious and cut the bodies of the dog and the man into pieces. His son was willing to take the blame for his father.
In the Tang Dynasty, adultery was one of the ten “evils” and one of the “civil strife”, that is, the heinous crimes must not be forgiven.
But in fact, the crime of adultery in the Tang Dynasty was relatively light. That is, the man and woman who committed adultery were each sentenced to one and a half years in prison. Those who had a husband were sentenced to two years in prison. However, there was also one clause in front. The adulterer could be caught and taken to the government, and those who refused could be killed.
.
But the problem is, it has never been determined who is the person to be caught, raped, murdered and exonerated. Is it the husband himself or someone else?
If the husband himself caught the murderer, he would be acquitted. But the problem is that the murderer this time was the hero's father.
Li Zhiyun pondered for a moment and handed the memorial to other prime ministers for review.
After a while, Wen Yanbo said: "I think he should be acquitted. After all, it has been confirmed that he was guilty of adultery. His father caught the adulterer and killed him, so this should be the case."
Chen Shuda said: "According to Wu De Law, the husband should be innocent of the crime if he catches rape or murder."
Li Zhiyun secretly slandered Pei Ji, who compiled the martial ethics, for being a loser.
"This way, in the future, as long as it is confirmed that the crime of adultery is committed, the adulterer can be caught by his relatives, and he can be killed if he resists."
"yes."
Li Zhiyun has always felt that the Tang Dynasty was a bit too open. For such a serious crime as adultery, he was sentenced to two years?
It's too cheap for a guy and a girl.
"I feel that as long as the adulterer is convicted, he can be sentenced to more than ten years in prison, and no reduction of sentence is allowed in any form."
He doesn't even engage in any kind of castration, he just sentences you to ten or twenty years and tortures you to death.
The six figures looked at each other, and Fang Xuanling said: "But in this case, isn't it necessary to amend the regulations of Wu De Lv?"
"Repair!" Li Zhiyun said: "It's time to rewrite the new criminal law. Well, let's call it "The Great Law of Zhenguan"."
"I am willing to work for Your Majesty!"
Except for Li Jing, the other five people all surrendered and asked for help.
Li Jing: "???"
"The Law of Zhenguan", just by the name, you will know that it is very awesome. Anyone who majors in this law will definitely leave a name in history. Except for Li Jing, who was a military general, the other five people are jealous.
Li Zhiyun said: "It's not appropriate for all five of you to practice cultivation."
Li Zhiyun did not plan to compile this law in a short time. It would take at least five years.
Chen Shuda said: "Your Majesty, please make sure that I serve the country loyally."
"Xiang Chen, I'll do it," Xue Shou said.
"No, I'm the most suitable." Wen Yanbo said.
Then, several people refuted each other.
This is the political hall, not the imperial court, and Li Zhiyun will not waste time watching them quarrel.
"alright."
Once it was heard, everyone fell silent.
Li Zhiyun said: "Xiang Chen is mainly responsible for editing and writing, and Xiang Wen is assisting."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chen Shuda and Wen Yanbo expressed their gratitude one after another.
"Whoever you want, please make a list and give it to me." Li Zhiyun added, and then continued to deal with government affairs.
Time passed by and it was noon.
The servants served the food and everyone began to enjoy it. Li Zhiyun didn't eat for a while, and went to take a meal because he felt uncomfortable in his stomach, leaving the six prime ministers to eat.
The food is quite rich. Everyone gets one meat, two vegetables and one soup, plus seasonal fruits. If you don’t have enough, you can refill the meal. It’s large and delicious.
Xue Shou gnawed on the fruit and said enviously to Chen Shuda: "Mr. Chen, you have a good job this time."
"Hey, I'm getting older, so don't compete with me this time." Chen Shuda said with a smile.
"As you get older, you should rest more." Wen Yanbo said.
Chen Shuda said: "While I can still move, I should help His Majesty to share his worries. You don't understand."
You understand!
Except Li Jing, the other four people complained one after another.
Who wouldn’t want to get involved in such a major cultural and educational matter?
A day in the political hall is boring for Li Zhiyun, but it is strange for Fang Xuanling.
Until get off work, Fang Xuanling was full of energy.
Entering the political hall, accompanying the emperor, and often discussing political affairs with the emperor, this is simply the pinnacle of life.
Fang and Du went home together, and they had to whisper on the way.
"Chen Shuda is rushing to compile "Zhenguan Dalu" this time, and he is probably preparing to retreat." Du Ruhui said.
Fang Xuanling pondered slightly, as if he wanted to understand something.
"Do you think His Majesty understands what Chen Shuda means and that's why he agrees?"
"Yeah." Du Ruhui said, "You have to remember that His Majesty the Emperor has unpredictable thoughts, and sometimes I can't understand them either."
"Not only that, but he also has a photographic memory." Fang Xuanling smiled bitterly. Thinking of the state and county data that the emperor had told him earlier, he felt incredible.
There is no place in the world that the emperor does not know.
Du Ruhui said: "You and I must be loyal to our duties. When we meet this holy king, you and I will definitely be able to benefit the people and help your majesty create a prosperous era in the future."
"It's already a prosperous age." Fang Xuanling said with emotion: "Since the end of the war in the late Sui Dynasty, people's lives have become better and better day by day, the Ministry of Civil Affairs' money and food have increased day by day, and small countries in all directions have bowed their heads. Your Majesty has put the Tang Dynasty on the path to a prosperous age.
