Zhang Fei was a little confused. He really didn't know much about this aspect, but he believed that it was not an accident if there were problems in the southeast. It would be a miracle if there were no problems. So he said: "Scholar Wang, is there any problem in this?"
What a misunderstanding. The New Deal must be adjusted, because during the implementation process, it is impossible to say that there are no mistakes, and it is normal for someone to complain."
He said it more euphemistically, but in fact he was hinting to Wang Anshi that he was not necessarily targeting Xue Xiang, but that there must be a real problem.
"There's no way this could be wrong."
Wang Anshi said very confidently: "It is impossible for ordinary people to arrive in Xuzhou from Jiangnan West Road quietly. There must be many people secretly supporting it, and their purpose must be to deal with Xue Xiang.
When I recommended Xue Xiang to be the shipping envoy, many people blocked my recommendation. How could they allow Xue Xiang to serve as the third envoy?"
Zhang Fei really doesn't understand much about this aspect.
But in fact, this change in the position of prime minister is very important, because the structure of the imperial court has gradually taken shape, and the trend of reform has gradually become clear, and various forces are secretly preparing.
However, the position of the third envoy is crucial to all parties.
Wang Anshi is determined to win.
In his opinion, the judicial power is almost controlled by conservatives. Since he only has Zhang Fei in it, and he is a semi-undercover agent, he is determined to win the financial power.
Initially, Lu Gongzhu was able to serve as the Third Secretary-General, and it was he who recommended him. However, who knew that Lu Gongzhu would directly lean toward the conservative side after he came to power in Kaifeng Mansion.
Wang Anshi was very unhappy about this.
In addition, Chen Shengzhi is also the same. He has not played his due role in the Privy Council. The rotation of the Privy Council this year is also very important.
For conservatives, the Ordinance Department of the Second Government has already controlled the two major financial institutions of Sinong Temple and Taifu Temple. If he controls the third department again, almost all financial power will be controlled by him. The key is Xue Xiang's
Confucian ministers do not like his character. They all regard Xue Xiang as a typical villain. Letting Xue Xiang serve as the third envoy is something that all conservatives do not want to see.
Zhang Fei didn't bother to ask clearly. It was difficult to ask clearly about this kind of thing because his subjective will was too strong. He asked directly: "I wonder what Bachelor Wang wants me to do?"
Wang Anshi said: "No matter what, we must keep Xue Xiang, and we must not affect Xue Xiang's appointment as the Third Secretary next year."
The implication is that in this case, a very positive result must be given to Xue Xiang.
Zhang Fei said sarcastically: "Xueshi Wang, this... this may be a bit difficult. If Xue Xiang kills people and sets fire, then... then I can't protect him!"
Wang Anshi said: "Don't worry, Xue Xiang has absolutely no personal problems. It's just that some people are maliciously spreading rumors and slandering him. They must be using some implementation issues to attack Xue Xiang and the New Deal.
As you said, there will definitely be some problems during the implementation of any policy, and they just need to be corrected, but those people hope to use the issue to attack political opponents."
Zhang Fei nodded slightly, "How to do it specifically, I have to wait until I understand clearly what is going on before I can make a final decision. But if it is just a matter of policy implementation, then I will definitely keep Xue Xiang and maintain the The New Deal will never let them succeed."
Wang Anshi glanced at Zhang Fei in surprise, as if he didn't expect Zhang Fei to agree so decisively, but then he smiled again, "I really didn't believe you wrong. The officials wanted to send the judge to the same place for trial before, but I I thought, I might as well put it in the capital and let you come and judge it."
"Thank you so much for your trust, Mr. Wang." Zhang Fei bowed his hand and vowed again: "Please rest assured, Mr. Wang, I am very supportive of the New Deal from the beginning to the end. I also believe that the only way to implement the New Deal is to implement Mr. Wang's New Deal well." , can make the country strong, and their tricks against the New Deal will not succeed."
Wang Anshi nodded with great satisfaction.
really.
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Fei supported the new law. Although he sometimes persuaded Wang Anshi to make minor changes, in general, Zhang Fei defended the new law and did not let the conservatives succeed. Even if they made minor changes, they would not succeed. It does not deviate from Wang Anshi's purpose, which is to replenish the national treasury, and the finances are still heading in a good direction.
After receiving Zhang Fei's assurance, Wang Anshi left with satisfaction.
Over there, after Xu Zun had entertained the guests who came to express his gratitude, he rushed over and asked what was going on. Wang Anshi suddenly came to the door. Something must have happened.
Zhang Fei told the truth truthfully.
After hearing this, Xu Zun stroked his beard and said: "Although I am very supportive of the New Deal, you are too hasty in agreeing. You don't know the things over there and the people over there, in case there is something unknown among them." Why, how will you protect Wang Jiefu when the time comes?"
You don't know anything at the moment, so you give people assurance, which seems a bit immature. This also makes Xu Zun feel a little confused. Zhang Fei is still relatively experienced in making decisions and is unlikely to make such a low-level mistake.
Zhang Fei explained: "Because I have no choice, I have to keep the New Deal. What I say now will win the trust of Master Wang more. When the trial comes, if there are some problems, I will be more able to convince Master Wang." Accept my conditions and improve the new laws and regulations."
Xu Zun asked curiously: "Why don't you have a choice?"
Zhang Fei said: "Without the New Deal, who would care about the Public Security Bureau, including those around Master Sima Liu Shilang, Judge Qi, etc. They don't actually support the Public Security Law, they just have no choice but to do so."
Xu Zun nodded thoughtfully.
In the court, the Public Security Law only won the inner approval of some officials. Many officials still planned to use the Public Security Law to deal with Wang Anshi.
One of the key reasons is that they are unable to control the public prosecutor and the law. To put it simply, they do not have the final say when they go to the imperial court. This makes them always doubtful and they do not really agree with the public prosecutor and the law.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "So if there is any illegal behavior, how do you plan to deal with it?"
Xu Zun asked with deep concern.
Zhang Fei said: "I know what my father-in-law is worried about, but I will never violate the rules. I will use legal procedures to pursue the results I want, and I will never let anyone know."
Xu Zun nodded slightly, "As long as you have a plan."
In fact, this is not a plan, but there is no way. Zhang Fei must maintain the balance of power between the DPRK and China, otherwise, the Public Security Bureau will have no meaning in existence.
Although it seems that the current public security law has been promoted very quickly, it is just a castle in the air. From the attitude of the squires, it is not difficult to see that the foundation of society is still the squires, and the social structure and governance system have not undergone earth-shaking changes.
So, there is no choice.
This matter can be said to be reasonable and unexpected.
Because the Equal Transmission Method is mainly implemented in the Southeast Sixth Road, and Xue Xiang has the final say alone, the problem of official governance will definitely be exposed. In the process of implementation, without supervision, problems will definitely occur. Su Shi, Su Zhe, Fan Chunren,
They all opposed it and were demoted because of it.
So this is reasonable.
However, it was Wen Yanbo who proposed this first, and Zhang Fei had not received any information about it beforehand.
This is outrageous.
This kind of thing, even if the news is known one day earlier, it may affect the final result.
This is unexpected again.
Zhang Fei immediately called Li Bao. He was able to win every time. Intelligence was crucial, but this time, the intelligence system seemed to disappear overnight.
"This is really unfair!"
"Brother Bao, I... I haven't even finished saying this before you screamed that you were wronged. I remember that I asked you to transfer people to Yangzhou a long time ago. With so many people disguised as a caravan, it is impossible that there is no news at all."
Come on."
Zhang Fei said very depressed.
Li Bao immediately said: "At the beginning, you did set up Jingdong East Road and Yangzhou, but then you went to the northwest again, leaving us in a hurry, and the Yangzhou Procuratorate was half-dead. Later, after Su Zizhan left, he directly
Disappeared.
After that, Jingdong East Road was in an uproar due to the Youth Law, and Xihe Kaibian sent a lot of people there. At that time, I had no choice but to transfer people from Jiangnan to Jingdong East Road. The key tax department was living on bonuses, and Yangzhou Taxation
The company cannot develop at all.”
"Uh...well, that's right."
Zhang Fei nodded. At first, he expected to go to Yangzhou, but he ran to the northwest. It turned out that Xihe was opened again, there was a thunderstorm on Jingdong East Road, and there was another problem in Hebei. The manpower was limited, so he had to give up Jiangnan completely, and asked
: "Then how much do you really know?"
Li Bao shook his head and said, "I know nothing."
"How is this possible? We don't have anyone there?" Zhang Fei asked confused.
Li Bao said: "There are still some people left, but the method of uniform transfer is different from the green seedling method. It is bought on the east road and sold on the west road. If you want to know the specific situation, you must have many spies on the six southeast roads."
"That's true."
Zhang Fei nodded and thought to himself, this is a dish that is too big to be monitored secretly. Is there anything fishy in it?
At this time, Li Si suddenly came over and whispered in Zhang Fei's ear: "Third brother, Bachelor Sima is here."
Why is this matter so important? Even Sima Guang came to me in a hurry. Zhang Fei frowned and said to Li Bao: "You immediately send someone to monitor this matter closely."
Li Bao nodded and said, "I understand."
Zhang Fei immediately went to the front yard.
"Zhang San has met Bachelor Sima."
"Um."
Sima Guang looked solemn and said: "You sit down first, I have something to tell you."
"yes."
After Zhang Fei sat down, Sima Guang asked directly: "Has Wang Jiefu come to see you?"
Zhang Fei nodded.
Sima Guang asked again: "About Xuzhou?"
Zhang Fei nodded again.
He admitted it very simply, because he was originally a double undercover agent.
Sima Guang continued to ask: "He came to you, hoping that you would try the case and make a judgment in his favor?"
Zhang Fei nodded and said, "That's probably what I mean."
Sima Guang asked: "Then did you promise him?"
Zhang Fei said: "I know nothing about this now, and Mr. Wang himself doesn't know either. How can I agree to this?"
Sima Guang nodded and said: "Actually, the reason I came here this time is to tell you that this case may not be handed over to the Public Security Bureau for trial."
"Yeah?"
Zhang Fei was shocked, and then added: "But Master Wang said that this will be handed over to the Beijing Public Security Bureau for trial."
Sima Guang said: "The officials only allowed those people to go to Beijing to inform them, and they also put the case in the capital for trial, but they did not specify that it would be handed over to the public prosecutor. And this matter has always been secretly monitored by the Yushitai, and I knew nothing about it in advance.
They all knew it, so they all believed that it should be handed over to the Yushitai for trial."
Zhang Fei glanced at Sima Guang and expressed doubt: "Is this the only reason?"
Sima Guang hesitated for a moment, then stroked his beard and said, "I don't want to hide it from you. In fact, there is another reason. Many ministers in the court think that you are always biased towards Wang Jiefu."
Damn it, how could they be smarter this time and not instigate the public security, procuratorate, and law to fight against the New Deal? Zhang Fei cursed secretly, but pretended to be dissatisfied and said: "If they think I am biased towards Bachelor Wang, they can impeach me. This kind of
It’s such an insulting statement.”
Sima Guang smiled and asked: "Then are you biased towards Wang Jiefu?"
"Uh..." Zhang Fei said sarcastically: "Sister Sima, you know the purpose of what I did. I am solving problems, not creating bigger ones.
Let’s talk about the case of Hui Cheng Du Jian last time. I admit that it is not impossible to convict Cheng Du Jian. But the problem is that after the verdict, it may not be implemented.
This will not only fail to solve the problem, but will also cause the public security bureau and the procuratorate to lose their authority, and the gains outweigh the losses. As for the case of the Imperial City Division, I will do everything I can. Bachelor Sima, you have impeached the Imperial City Division so many times, have you ever achieved anything?
Such a success.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It’s incredible that you doubted me.”
The more he spoke, the more aggrieved he became, and the more he spoke, the more excited he became.
Sima Guang said: "If I don't believe you, why bother to tell you this matter? I have also explained to you their doubts about you, and the matter has not been agreed upon in the end, so I am here to hear it."
views on the matter."
Zhang Fei shrugged and said calmly: "My view remains the same, we are just enforcing the law impartially, and a case like this is not a criminal case. I really don't care which government agency is handed over for trial.
In fact, I didn't want to get involved in the previous cases. They were actually forced on me.
What they are saying now is really chilling. Don't fall into my hands next time. I will let them know what true betrayal is. It is really unreasonable."
Sima Guang chuckled: "Okay, okay, don't say such angry words. They just said that. I'm here to hear your opinion on this matter."
Zhang Fei restrained his anger and said: "Let's talk about the matter. I know nothing about it and have no opinion. If Wang Xueshi hadn't come to me, I wouldn't want to hear such a case, let alone I have been thinking too much recently.
Spend time with your wife and children."
Sima Guang nodded and said: "In this case, the case will still be handed over to the Yushitai for trial."
Zhang Fei said: "I fully comply with the decision of Bachelor Sima. In fact, such cases should be handed over to the Yushitai or Dali Temple for trial. It is best not to hand them over to the Public Security Bureau. The reason is very simple. The policy decision is wrong, and
It is not an illegal act, and flaws in execution are not necessarily illegal acts. Rewards and punishments should still be left to administrative decisions."
Sima Guang nodded slightly and said, "Don't take those words to heart."
Zhang Fei said half-jokingly: "It may take two days to calm down."
After hearing this, Sima Guang felt relieved.
After seeing Sima Guang off, Zhang Fei couldn't help but rub his forehead, "This is really troublesome."
Zhang Fei really didn't want to touch the previous cases of the Hebei Navy and the Imperial City Division, because these two cases involved imperial power, which were very difficult and were currently restricted areas of the Public Security Bureau.
But this case is different. This case is completely a struggle between the old and the new parties. If the public prosecutor and the law are abandoned, it will inevitably return to the old path of party struggle. Once the two sides start to see red, then who will care about the public prosecutor and the law.
This is a situation that Zhang Fei has been trying his best to avoid, and he has made many compromises for this.
In the evening, he rushed to the palace and informed Wang Anshi of the matter.
After Wang Anshi heard this, he immediately sneered and said: "You should see clearly the true face of Sima Old Thief and his gang now. The public prosecutor's law is just a weapon he uses to deal with me. It has nothing to do with fairness and justice. Once they think that the public prosecutor's law cannot meet their needs,
They will abandon the public prosecutor's law without hesitation, but they do not agree with the public prosecutor's law."
Zhang Fei just smiled awkwardly. At this moment, it was really hard to refute this.
Wang Anshi added: "I think this judicial reform should end here. What's the point of deceiving yourself and others like this? When the time comes, I will arrange for you to join the Ordinance Department of the Second Government to assist me in formulating new laws and regulations. With your ability, you don't need to wait at all."
over there."
Zhang Fei was heartbroken when he heard this. He originally hoped that Wang Anshi would support the Public Security Law, but Wang Anshi was more thorough and believed that the Public Security Law should be abolished.
In Wang Anshi's view, Zhang Fei has indeed contributed a lot to the success from the beginning to the present, but the reason lies in Zhang Fei's personal ability, not the public prosecutor.
Because he and Zhang Fei had many behind-the-scenes operations, he highly recognized Zhang Fei's financial abilities.
As for the public prosecutor's office, in fact, sometimes he also thought that the public prosecutor's office was a bit obstructive and seriously affected his performance.
Zhang Fei said: "So Academician Wang is confident that he can defeat them?"
Wang Anshi sneered and said: "No matter how framed they are, they can't cover up the fullness of the capital's granary."
The implication is that we have a clear conscience and there is no need to rely on the protection of the public security organs.
Zhang Fei laughed self-deprecatingly: "Then I will go home and take care of the children."
Wang Anshi glanced at him and said, "It's not my fault. It's because they didn't want to abide by the rules."
Zhang Fei hurriedly said: "Master Wang, please don't say that. Even now, I'm not afraid of telling the truth. In fact, I don't want to get involved in this matter, because I always believe that the public security organs and the law should manage the administration of officials well. The decisions made above
It is really not appropriate to leave it to the public prosecutor and the law, and sometimes I am in a difficult position."
Wang Anshi nodded and said, "I have the same view as you on this point."
He is so smart, how come he doesn't understand the concept of legalism? When he was listening to the class, he thought clearly about it, but he still agrees more with the legalist method, because the legalistic method still pays too much attention to some details to achieve great things.
It should be informal.
But so far, their cooperation has been relatively successful. Wang Anshi will just take it one step at a time. Now that the conservatives have voluntarily given up on the public security, procuratorate, and law, let alone him. If you don't use it yourself, then why should I?
use.
Zhang Fei could only let it go, because he couldn't show a strong ambition to avoid others noticing his ambition.
But having said that, he didn't expect that this crisis would come so suddenly.
This is a very big crisis for the public security organs.
Because from this incident, it is enough to see that everyone is actually a little tired of the public security system.
You always fight against each other, but there is always no blood. Neither side can use the public prosecution and law to achieve their own political goals. This is very uncomfortable!
...
In a side room of the political hall, Fu Bi and Wen Yanbo were sitting there drinking tea and resting.
"Kuanfu."
Fu Bi put down his tea cup and said, "Since the establishment of the Public Security and Procuratorate Law, its benefits to the country are obvious. Why do you want to abandon the Public Security Procuratorate Law this time?"
Wen Yanbo shook his head and said: "This is not what I asked for, but the people below all thought that Zhang San deliberately favored the other party in the previous matters regarding the sailors and the Imperial City Department, and failed to convince people.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If the case is handed over to the Public Security Bureau, this good opportunity may be missed. Many people are dissatisfied with what Xue Xiang did on Southeast Sixth Road.
I have been secretly collecting evidence."
Fu Bi asked: "Then what do you think?"
Wen Yanbo said: "I also think that Zhang San seems to be fair on many issues, but in fact he is biased. It's just that he is the founder of the legal system, so no matter how he explains it, it makes sense, but this is not true.
Fairness and justice in the sense of justice. My view on the public security system is that it has enough defense but not enough offense.
Just like the concept of the rule of law, it can only redress justice for those who have been wronged, but it is not enough to punish those who are the accomplices of others."
He has always had great reservations about the public security system. What he truly believes in is the law of his ancestors. He is more conservative than Fan Chunren, but the current leader is Sima Guang.
Fu Bi glanced at Wen Yanbo, "Is that all?"
Wen Yanbo said: "I have to leave the Yushitai this year, and with Wang Jiefu's character, he will definitely find a way to seize the Yushitai. So letting the Yushitai hear the case will not be conducive to Wang Jiefu's capture of the Yushitai."
Fu Bi nodded slightly. He had already guessed that the conservatives wanted to put aside the public prosecutor and the law this time, and their purpose was to deal with Xue Xiang, because Xue Xiang was a very unpleasant person in the court, because his methods were completely inconsistent with Confucianism.
The values and legal system are still based on Confucian values. If it weren't for the great support given by Zhao Xu and Wang Anshi, Xue Xiang would not have been able to serve as the shipping envoy.
Not to mention letting Xue Xiang control the Third Division, which is unacceptable to many people.
When conservatives collect enough evidence, they will of course launch an attack. However, from the perspective of conservatives, the main reason is that the public prosecutors and law are beyond their control. It can even be said that the public prosecutors and law cannot serve them.
Compared to Wen Yanbo's reservations, Fu Bi agreed more with the concept of the public prosecutor, the procuratorate, and the law, but he also faced the same dilemma as Sima Guang.
Even though no one wants the case to be heard by the public prosecutor, the only thing they can do is try to maintain unity.
The key is, neither Fu Bi nor Sima Guang likes Xue Xiang.
