Chapter 227: A Great Heart (Part II)
"Don't," Wang Zhizhou made Zheng Lang's words so frightened that both calves went weak.
Others don't believe it, but they believe that Zheng Lang can do it, and people entering the palace is like entering their own back garden.
He is a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain, Zhao Zhen attaches importance to Zheng Lang, that is Zheng Lang's reasonableness and fairness, if he is just the master of Xiao Hei's report, he will report a dozen Xiao Hei twice, and if he wants to enter the palace next time, it will be a long thought.
Then he said: "Doctor Zheng, that monkey ......."
The second time I was embarrassed to mention Monkey Three.
Zheng Lang said to Third Uncle Lu: "Third Uncle Lu, please go out and ask where this monkey third came from and what did he do?" β
The rich squire is not necessarily bad, and there are some families who are not bad, such as the Zheng family itself, or the proprietor that Ouyang Xiu met. Monks and Taoists are not necessarily bad, and some of them can indeed be called outsiders, such as Zhiyue, Yihai, or Wei Zhongzheng. Although they were one of the drawbacks of the Song Dynasty.
But there is a group, and there is no good person to speak of.
Lawsuits!
This is a ghost word, not a teacher's word, and it is impossible for a later lawyer, and I don't expect them to have any sense of rights protection.
At the beginning, many people were illiterate, and even if they were literate, they didn't know how to write a complaint. But the yamen ran a lot of times, and got acquainted with the officials one by one, forming some relationship networks.
Before the Song, it had not posed a serious hazard.
In the Song Dynasty, the relaxation of the literati, to what extent, Shuzhong in one fell swoop, many times the provincial examination did not pass, one day made a mistake, wrote a poem dedicated to Chengdu Mansion, cloud: burn the broken sword gate to the pavilion, Chengdu is not a mess. Burn the Jianmen plank road, Sichuan has something else.
The Chengdu prefect was frightened at first glance, this was clearly a rebellion. Arrested this lifter, escorted him to the capital, and put it on the table, the emperor, I don't have this heart, it's this old man who is talking nonsense. After Zhao Zhen saw it, he said: "This is an old showman, who is in a hurry to be an official, and it is not enough to be cured." It can be granted to the division to join the army, regardless of affairs, and is located in a far small county. After he arrived, he thought of Zhao Zhen's magnanimity, and then thought of his madness, and died of shame in less than a year.
It's okay to burn the Jianmen Plank Road, and it's okay for Fu Bi to count Zhao Zhen's n heinous crimes, and there is still nonsense from the literati two months later...... It's okay, you can imagine what kind of world the literati live in.
A relaxed environment produces a large number of direct ministers, but it also produces some bad products. For example, it doesn't matter if you don't do it anyway, these litigators have a chance.
In the Song Dynasty, taxes gradually shifted, and the proportion of agricultural taxes became smaller and smaller, and if it were not for the three redundancies, Zheng Lang doubted that he could exempt the peasants from agricultural taxes more than a thousand years in advance. Therefore, the land is lightly valued, and the phenomenon of annexation is very serious. Some rural land is annexed by the wealthy, which will inevitably lead to disputes over land and real estate. The Song Dynasty could have tenant farmers, but there could be no tribals, at least on the surface, everyone was equal, including the law. When disputes arise, the poor can also make trouble. So these lawsuits came, making doglegs for the rich families, using their relationship with the officials, as well as their powerful mouth function and pen skills, to suppress the poor people. Often, poor people not only did not receive a fair judgment, but also lost the lawsuit and received the cane.
If there is no merger, what should the litigants do, there is still a way, in the township and the clan out of nothing, fabricate out of thin air, provoke trouble, after the matter is big, pretend to be a mediator, yin and yang, the result is that the more mediation matters, the bigger the matter, the two sides trust him again, and entrust him to go to the court to fight a lawsuit. The money is coming again.
What if you haven't yet? It's easy to do, there are too many rich and unscrupulous children, tricking them into making friends with bandits, and then making trouble with their brothers and parents, causing trouble, and the lawsuit comes, and they continue to fight the lawsuit.
Here's a combing from below.
There is also the above, if you want to earn money in lawsuits, you have to win lawsuits for others, and some officials and county orders don't buy it, what should I do? When encountering difficulties, they lend money to the officials or give gifts, and the officials are gradually bought by them.
The county order can't be bought, but the style of the entire officialdom is that less is better than more, I don't want you poor people to sue, but you don't say the reason, let me do what? This is the inaction of officials, and it is also the mentality of most officials.
However, there are some officials who have just arrived, do not "know each other" and have a way to deal with them, and these lawsuits have been in the battlefield for a long time and have far more experience than these new county orders, so they use lawsuits to forcibly control the county orders. No longer knew each other, overstepping his boss, and even took the initiative to sue the county magistrate himself, making the county magistrate disgraced, and finally convinced.
If the Song Dynasty hooligans, the lawsuits were the largest group of hooligans.
Zheng Lang said: "Xing'er, make tea for Wang Zhizhou." β
I am very dissatisfied, and now I am making tea for Wang Zhizhou.
Xing'er was making tea, and Zheng Lang said again: "Wang Zhizhou, you must resent me in your heart for my arrogant attitude towards you. β
"Nope."
"A gentleman is frank, he will say anything he has to say, and he is afraid of anything. Why do I have this attitude, although you are about to be transferred, but on any given day, the 30,000 households and more than 100,000 people in Taiping Prefecture are your people, and you must be responsible for them. Not in his position, not in his politics. In his position, he must seek his own government. However, you are in a hurry to leave and take a look at the Gao family's case, how was it handled? If you appease a little, how can you come to Danyang Lake? Yes, although I am young, maybe my experience is a little worse, but it does not mean that I am stupid, otherwise His Majesty would not have summoned me to the palace many times to discuss affairs, and even several ministers asked me several times about some state affairs. β
"Yes," Wang Zhizhou was dripping in cold sweat, how could he forget about it.
If you don't have the ability, how can several prime ministers, the queen mother in front, and the emperor in the back value it so much, and they should really be talented?
I did it myself.
"Yesterday, I actually cut some of the white coats in the lake at my behest. You just said with good intentions that there are many big families in every place, and it is impossible to alarm them all. But can it be left to its own devices? I heard a fisherman's words and reminders, I deliberately chose one out, not all of them, but one can be handled. You know what I mean? β
"Yes."
"I also have a deep meaning for this heavy punishment, and it may be related to my blueprint for the next few years in Taiping Prefecture, and he said that you will know. It's not that I mean to make things difficult for you. That's what I just said, take every step of the way, but keep a big heart. β
"Yes." True or false, I can't figure it out, after taking a sip of Jiang Xing'er's tea, Wang Zhizhou felt very bitter.
Third Uncle Lu is back, Zheng Lang looked at the sweaty Third Uncle Lu and thought of another thing in his heart, Third Uncle Lu is also a capable person, this time I want to thank Lu Yijian. But in the end, he went back, and in a few years, he had to let Lu Gongzhu go back to the scientific expedition, and at that time he lacked a capable assistant by his side.
Thinking of Chai Keming again, he must not be able to move. That's the foundation of our own family.
Where can I find someone to train?
said to Si'er: "Si'er, fetch a basin of well water for Uncle Lu to wipe his sweat." β
"Whoa."
Third Uncle Lu smiled gratefully, and followed Zheng Lang for a long time, that kind of thoughtfulness, very warm to Uncle Lu San's heart.
Then I will hear the situation one by one, this monkey three self-proclaimed court, that is, scholars, specializing in lawsuits to make a living, and later became rich, and he bought some properties, but still did not give up the lawsuits, the richer he was, the more he did evil. The bad deeds done over the years can be described as difficult to write, and after listening carefully, he said: "Xing'er, bring pen and ink." β
Jiang Xing'er took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, Zheng Lang began to write, Wang Zhizhou stretched out his head to look, and saw Zheng Lang's words for the first time, good words, and sighed in his heart. However, after a while, big drops of sweat fell from his forehead.
Monkey Deqing, a native of Taipingzhou, is rumored to make a living by litigation...... The heart of the tiger and the wolf, the desire to hang the ravine. I am most afraid of peace, but I am happy and eventful. Relying on the mouth for the work, farming without farming, relying on the knife and pen for a career, and cultivating without roots. The media is evil, attacks each other in vain, gathers friends, and calculates and dances with each other...... Or the Creator slandered the post, thinking that it was a slanderous step, or pinching a shadowless visit list, and taking Jia a monstrous disaster. He is located in the Huawu, and is still regarded by Wenhua. Who dares to criticize the dragon scales, flirt with the tiger's whiskers, and sound the evil of the sky...... The ugly people are unheard of, unseen, and praised.
Really...... It's a compliment!
After writing it and dropping the pen, Zheng Lang said: "Wang Zhizhou, you stick it at the gate of the city, and send officials to protect it so that people don't tear it off." β
"Okay, thank you, Dr. Zheng."
With this sharp text coming out, the three monkeys are finished!
If it weren't for himself, no matter how many articles he wrote, no one would pay attention to them, but the article was from the hands of Zheng Jiazi, and it would soon spread all over the world, and it wouldn't even take long for it to reach the ears of the emperor.
Can Monkey Three Toss Again?
The monkey is an embarrassment, and the six tigers of the Zhang family are wolves, only wolves can be surrounded and killed, but they are only short-legged and embarrassed, and they are not very harmful. What I am afraid of is the embarrassment, the power of the Zhang family, the wisdom and pen of the monkey three. Intercepting the pen of the monkey three, the six tigers of the Zhang family did not hold it, and it was easy to deal with.
He walked out with this text.
Third Uncle Lu said, "Doctor Zheng, please invite a few more humble guests." β
Without opposition, Zheng Lang would not be an official like Wang Zhizhou, so these few or dozens of evildoers must not bow to them. Especially this monkey three, bold, Wang Zhizhou punished the six tigers of the Zhang family, it is Zheng Lang's meaning, the three monkeys will not know, but the wind is strong, and he forcibly litigate for the six tigers of the Zhang family, what kind of courage is this!
The protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven, the youngest Sanyuan and the first in history, the Empress Dowager Liu's lonely minister, and the young man who His Majesty values the most, this lawsuit seems to have lost his mind and gone crazy.
"It just so happens that I also want to write a letter and ask Wang Tong to do it for me." refers to Wang Yi, including the matter of Linjiang Temple, as well as the current guards, Zheng Lang does not want to invite people from Taiping Prefecture for the time being, and he can't figure out who people are reliable and which people are unreliable. There are many people and talents in Jiangning Mansion, so by the way, let Wang Yi find a master with the surname of the steward for him. Just let Uncle Sun, who went north, bring the letter to Jiangning.
Just as he was about to pick up the pen to write a letter, Lu Gong wrote: "Doctor Zheng, is it a little extreme? β
Refers to his excellent means.
"Good question, righteousness is the festival, benevolence is the foundation, if you want to govern a place, in the end it is based on benevolence, but some things are clear. The severe punishment of the six ghosts of the Zhang family, I have another meaning, the area of nearly 40,000 hectares in the three counties of Taiping Prefecture, excluding the necessary water storage lakes, flooding rivers, mountain areas, and urban residential areas, at least half of them can be used as polders and fertile land. β
"Half?" Wang Anshi asked excitedly.
Half is an area of 20,000 hectares, so how much arable land must be cultivated! Wang Anshi was excited.
"It's not what you think, some small polders and some highlands have been reclaimed one after another, and the area that can actually be turned into new cultivated land will shrink, and it will not be possible to develop all of them during my tenure. But this is my first task in Taipingzhou, there is not enough arable land, there are not enough people, and it is also impossible to develop Wuhu into a large commercial port. There are two enclosures, one is the new polder, and the other is to connect the small polders together, because the polders are small, so they don't pay attention to them, and often the water is broken when a large polder. Once the large-scale encirclement begins, the water storage and discharge is not like now, and the water level of the river will inevitably rise in the flood season. If you don't succeed, you fail. Therefore, it is necessary to link the small polder. When the Wei is bigger, there will be more people, and there will be more people who will flood control, and it will become safer. β
"Whoa."
"Dr. Zheng thinks long-term." Third Uncle Lu also said convincingly.
Zheng Lang smiled bitterly, not because he thought about it in the long term, but because of his later experience, for example, there were many small polders in Wuhu, and the embankments were thick and thin, the embankments were long, the labor was less, and the floods were frequent. So the thirteen polders of Yitai, Xianbao, Baofeng, Zhenghe, Zhougao, Baode, Nanhutan, Wuzhang Lake, Zhugong Lake, Yong'an, Yongcheng, Yongding, and Yangde were connected together, and the superior surname was immediately displayed.
Everyone knows the benefits of Lianwei, but the upstream polder, the needs of neighboring polders, and the interests of the landlords of each polder have always made it difficult to carry out the work of Lianwei.
Now it's a little better, that is, the virgin land superior surname that Zheng Lang values, and the Wei has not yet been formally formed, even if there is Wei, the interests are not much involved, and it is easier to link them together. The truth is that he repaints and tears the painting is a surname.
As long as you plan properly, you can get twice the result with half the effort.
Zheng Lang said: "The matter of Xiaowei is easier to do, it is the squire or the common people who circle the polder embankment and cultivate it themselves, and even after the polder, their acres will not be moved, and there will be a loss of water or other resources, which can be solved with a little compensation." The key is the lake. For example, the six tigers of the Zhang family, not only that lake, if they lead the people to make trouble and forcibly ask for compensation from Shitian, what will happen. Am I going to be a fence for these rich people? This is one of them. Once Lianwei started, and saw the benefits of Lianwei, these rich people circled the polder indiscriminately, built a small polder, and said that I have a polder, and I will make compensation. So what? Therefore, it is necessary to take a person out and knock the mountain and the tiger. β
Lu Gong bowed down and said, "Doctor Zheng, I understand." β
"That's why I just said that we must have a big heart to be a man, so that we can see the long-term."
β¦β¦ After writing a letter to Wang Yi, he asked Jiang Xing'er to go to the street to buy some souvenirs, and wrote a letter of peace to a few mothers, and Uncle Lu and Sima Guang also wrote a letter home. Sima Guang reported safety, and Uncle Lu said the letter more carefully, and wrote all the things he saw and heard along the way and some words of Zheng Lang on the letter, which was a letter of good news, Xianggong, you let San Langjun go to the back of the Zheng family to study, you have chosen the right person. It is very likely that the Lu family will have a husband in the future.
Only then did he send away Zheng San Hammer and Uncle Sun.
But not long after, there was a knock on the door outside.
The guts are great! Yang Jiujin opened the door and saw a scribe with dozens of people blocking the door. Ask: "Who are you?" β
"I'm Monkey Three, and I want to see Dr. Zheng."
Zheng Lang came out unhappily and asked, "Monkey San, what do you have to see this official?" β
"Doctor Zheng, why are you slandering me?"
"Slandering you? Okay, if you don't accept it, you can continue to appeal in the capital, you haven't been to the capital. This official teaches you that if you are not satisfied with the verdict in the local government, there are only two departments to accept it when you enter the capital, one is called Dali Temple, and the right prison of Dali Temple hears the criminal case of the official, and the left sentence is responsible for the local death penalty case and difficult cases. Probably won't accept you. Only when you go to the household department, there are three cases of household registration, farmland and procuratorate under Zuo Cao of the household department, go to the procuratorate. β
Wang Anshi and the others laughed in the back.
"I'll go to the Pavilion."
"Okay, take my Fuwen, and say to Yanchen that I slandered you, it's best to let the Son of Heaven take a look, and see what he said to the minister that Jiangnan is good, the people of Jiangnan are simple, and you are such a good talent! In the past, for the sake of a peaceful and prosperous world, the master wrote books and lectures, taught his disciples, and traveled all his life, but there were scum such as you! Also, I don't care if you go to the capital to appeal, and in the future, you are not allowed to stir up right and wrong in the evil township, run rampant for the tiger, bully the superiors and slack off, or come to my house to disturb me and my family, otherwise after this official takes over, he will be the first to ask you, commit it once, and punish it once. Get lost! Ding Yi, Yang Jiujin, Yang Bawang, these people are making trouble around my door again, and they will beat me hard! β
"Huh," the three of them answered, picked up their sticks and rushed out.
Monkey San brought dozens of Xiaoxiao over, it was scary, it was really fighting, who would dare to start a war with the humble guests in Zheng Lang's house? Besides, he took the initiative to go to someone's house to start a war!
The three of them had not yet rushed out, and they scattered in a hurry.
Zheng Lang said to the onlookers: "Ladies and gentlemen, there are four people who are prosecuted in the imperial court system, one is for the victims and their families to directly sue the government for grievances, and the other is for other insiders to report to the government, and the government will give a certain reward. There has never been a rule that appeals must be litigated. Therefore, once I take over, I will order all counties in the state not to accept lawsuits, and if you have grievances, you can write them yourself, and those who are illiterate can go directly to the court and tell them with your mouth. Don't go any further, and do yourself a disservice. Let's scatter. β
Zheng Lang's tough attitude gave the people confidence.
The monkey is wilted.
The six tigers of the Zhang family did not have this embarrassment, and they wilted.
Not only to gain the reputation of the Six Tigers, but also to do a lot of evil things, before the people did not dare to speak, see hope, all appeal grievances. The cases came out one by one, and at this time, it was too late for the six tigers of the Zhang family to bow their heads. However, Wang Zhizhou couldn't get out of it, so he had to try them one by one.
Sima Guang said: "I cut off this embarrassment, and it really has an effect." β
"Not necessarily, some Qing officials sympathize with the poor people in order to seek fame, so there are poor people who deliberately slander the rich in order to seek the wealth of the rich. There are good people among the rich, and there are also Diao people among the poor. β
"This is also the golden mean?"
"Forget it, look at where the focus is, for example, if the annexation and concealment of land and property in our dynasty is serious, then the focus is on the merger and concealment, and when encountering this kind of case, even if there is a biased treatment, for the sake of the overall situation, it can be evaluated fairly. This is the way to be tolerant and adjustable. β
Suddenly I fell asleep, and I couldn't remember it again.
It's not that he doesn't practice moderation, he hasn't grasped the core yet.
If you blindly interpret it and don't give it a new definition, it's not worth repairing. This new definition is the core idea.
It's funny in my heart, grandma's, I used to understand words, but now I want to understand the Tao, and I have to understand them one by one. One by one, it is only the mean, and it cannot interpret the entire Confucianism, there is the mean, there is benevolence and righteousness, there is wisdom, there is courtesy, there is filial piety, there are three points, there is loyalty and forgiveness, and so on, which constitutes a complete Confucian system.
Suddenly, there was another knock at the door.
Zheng Lang said: "Call me." β
"Whoa." The Yang brothers and Ding Yi opened the door angrily, and the big stick was raised and fell.
Cui Xian was so frightened that her face was pale...... PS: The heroine really appeared.
Some plots are arranged in front.,It's a little light.,Add some conflict.,It's too fast.,It's not adjusted.,Apologize.γ The next chapter is going to be linked.
This paragraph of Linjiang Temple is a bit vulgar, but it is not written for the purpose of investigating the case, the book said that the temple occupies an area is also a big evil, this pit is left in the future of Hangzhou, there is a Buddhist debate conference, is preparing this ** information. It's also the pit in the back, and if you don't dig some pits one after another, the whole book is loose.
Ladies and gentlemen, am I right, please advise?
