Chapter 430: The King Worm (II)

Wang Pengju was willing to help Song Zheng, but he felt that Song Zheng should have more respect for his predecessors, such as filial piety to three or five hundred jars of three thousand years of old wine.

Song Zheng paid back the money on the ground, cut the price to sixty jars, and after giving it out, there was not much old vintage spirit brew for Lord Song. Lord Song's mind has also changed now, and he is thinking about where to make up for this loss, after all, this official is now the first powerful minister of Hongwu.

He left a meal for Wang Pengju.

Wang Pengju said that the Daqin Post House has limited funds every year, and can only entertain him with four dishes and one soup, plus a scoop of corn. However, Song Zheng raised this matter to the height of the relationship between the two countries, and forced Wang Pengju to raise this light meal to the height of the "state banquet".

Xiao Sanshan was on the side, watching this pair of old and young people compete, and snickered vigorously.

After being full of wine and food, Lord Song went back leisurely with a shy stomach. Wang Pengju gritted his teeth and scolded the "little melon skin" - this is the Great Qin people's affectionate name for the beloved younger generation - reported to the Son of Heaven of Great Qin, he tried to persuade the Son of Heaven that the overall situation is important, and at this time he should help Hongwu drag down the Great Han, not only for Hongwu, but also for the Great Han.

Wang Pengju also saw that Song Zheng can always create some miracles. There are indeed his own factors in this, but he faintly feels that Song Zheng has some great opportunities, and even if the Han can win, it must be a miserable victory, which is very unfavorable to the future of the human race.

The Great Qin Heavenly Son cautiously asked Xiao Sanshan's opinion again, and then nodded in agreement.

Song Zheng returned to the yamen, and Shang Yunguang rushed to hear the news and discussed with him how to revive Hongwu.

Now there is only Song Zheng in the entire Hongwu, and at this moment of national crisis, in fact, the most taboo thing is the internal struggle for power and profit, and a word is beneficial.

Song Zheng said some of his ideas, which concealed some of his arrangements, which are still invisible, but they have been implemented, and the future is the "ideal" he once said to Hui Yigong.

In his plan, if the Son of Heaven is too unbearable, then replace the Son of Heaven with Qianhe Prince. But before Prince Qianhe ascended the throne, he wanted to thoroughly promote these arrangements.

Although Shang Yunguang is an old minister and is very familiar with the government, what Song Zheng said is too far-reaching, and he can't see any clues, he only feels that these plans of Lord Song have a far-reaching impact on Hongwu, and they are all very beneficial, but it seems that sooner or later the power of Long Yiwei will be weakened.

He wanted to remind, but after thinking about it, he still didn't talk much, and wrote it down according to Lord Song's instructions, and tomorrow the court will play the Son of Heaven and promote it.

After sending Shang Yunguang away, Song Zheng thought about it and instructed outside: "Send someone to inform Lord Xiao, this official is going to visit him." ”

Xiao Zhen now lives in the Star Picking Building.

When Song Zheng arrived, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Lord Xiao is not very popular in the Star Picking Tower." ”

Xiao Zhen snorted, he has a feeling of loneliness these days, these old monsters in Xinglou are his old acquaintances, but these guys are locked up in the yard all day long to do research, and if there is anything they don't understand, go to Zhou Sheng.

Xiao Zhen wanted to find someone to drink wine and tea with him, but those old monsters threw a sentence in his face: "No time!"

He was very angry, why was Zhou Sheng, a person like a delicate little student, more popular than himself?

Hu Zhenguo has not seen anyone in the past few days, and it is said that he went to Jiangnan - the Beijing division suffered a great disaster, and Fengyue's livelihood was also destroyed, but Jiangnan is said to have except for a few famous Oiran.

Hu Zhenguo has always been drooling enviously for Lord Song Zheng to have two well-known Oiran as maids. He wanted to go to Jiangnan and bring back a few Oiran.

Fan Zhenguo chased after him - the girl Hu Zhenguo brought back from his Fan family, although he no longer knew how many generations he was descendant, but Fan Zhenguo couldn't watch him abandon his descendants in chaos.

"Lord Song has a lot of opportunities, why do you have time to see the old man?" Xiao Zhen asked with a snort, and Song Zheng smiled: "There are some things I want to discuss with my lord." ”

"Say it. He opened his mouth and poured a cup of tea for Song Zheng. Song Zheng took a small sip and put it down, sighing: "Lord Xiao is really used to being served, you made this tea yourself...... I really can't drink it. ”

Xiao Zhen was about to have a seizure, and Song Zheng hurriedly shouted: "Miss Liu, thank you for your hard work." ”

Liu Chengfei came in and personally boiled water and made tea for them.

Xiao Zhen had no choice but to give him face and suppress his annoyance, but a pair of eyes stared at him, obviously not intending to give up.

Song Zheng drank tea and said, "I'll invite the adults out of the mountain." Now that the Long Yiwei family is dominant in Hongwu, adults should understand that this is very disadvantageous. I don't think there will be any chaos in this part of the Jingshi, but I am afraid that there will inevitably be some traitors and criminals in the local area. ”

Xiao Zhen nodded, and couldn't help but think in his heart: It's much better than what I brewed myself.

"I want to abolish the Criminal Department and Dali Temple, and set up a separate Supervision Yuan, which is a system of its own, and the Supervision Yuan is responsible for criminal cases in the world, whether it is a commoner, a nobleman or a royal family, it should be under the responsibility of the procuratorate.

In addition, there is also a criminal litigation court, which is equal in rank and level with the Supervision Yuan. The main hall is located in Jingshi, and there are three levels of branch halls in the local area.

First, the case should be investigated by the Supervision Court, and all evidence should be submitted to the Criminal Litigation Court for trial and conviction.

Since then, the Supervisory Yuan and the Criminal Litigation Hall have been responsible for investigating and adjudicating cases, and local officials are no longer involved. The county magistrate can concentrate on civil affairs, and the days of being promoted to the court to try cases are gone.

As the head of the Supervisory Yuan, I would like to ask you to take up the post of Lord. I would like to hand it over to Elder Ishihara. He has been in Saibei for too long, and it is time for him to come back when the imperial court is employing people. ”

Xiao Zhen frowned: "In this way, a large number of officials will be added, and the expenses of the imperial court will increase greatly. ”

Song Zheng said: "It's worth it. ”

After a pause, he added: "And there are not so many new officials, and now that the imperial court is bloated, you can first select suitable personnel from them and build the framework of the two institutions." And then slowly recruit new people. ”

Xiao Zhen glanced at him and asked, "What about Long Yiwei, is it not under the jurisdiction of the Supervision Yuan?"

Song Zheng said: "Yes!"

"I will appease the brothers below, Long Yiwei is an unreasonable existence, it's time to withdraw from history!"

Xiao Zhen looked at him in surprise: "You ......"

Song Zheng waved his hand: "Don't worry about it, I won't give up my power for nothing, of course I have other arrangements for myself, but now is not the time to talk about this." ”

Xiao Zhen thought for a while and nodded slowly: "Okay, I promise you." ”

Song Zheng smiled: "There are many details in the whole system, and I will go back and ask people to send the copywriting together." Please also ask for your comments. ”

......

Far away in Saibei, Ishihara River and He Hu received an order from the imperial court.

In the cold wind, Ishihara's gray hair fluttered in the wind, and a majestic He Hu accompanied him, and the old and young had mixed feelings in their hearts, standing silent for a long time.

After a long time, Ishihara River said with a generous voice: "Go back to Beijing!"

"Go back to Beijing. He Hu agreed, and the rough man grinned.

Ishihara looked at the direction of Tianhuo from afar, and looked back at Jingshi, with some relief in regret: he didn't see the wrong person, when the young man left from Saibei, he only expected a successor, and he was even very worried about Hongwu's current situation, whether he could survive until he returned to Jingshi.

Unexpectedly, a few years later, he sorted out the entire Hongwu Heavenly Dynasty, defeated strong enemies, and greeted himself as the "Criminal Litigation Hall".

He is better at court politics, and Xiao Zhen can't see the role of the Criminal Litigation Hall and the Supervision Yuan thoroughly, but he thought about it for a moment and figured it out, the real power is in his hands.

There was even a moment when he felt that he was "deserved", as if he had not done anything, but he had received such a huge reward.

"He's a good boy. He sighed in his heart.

He waved his hand and said to He Hu: "You go and inform everyone, the old man will stay alone for a while." ”

"Yes. He Hu took the order and left, and soon the entire camp was filled with jubilation, and Ishihara River seemed to be infected by this joy, and a warm smile bloomed on his weather-beaten face.

......

After Shang Yunguang played tomorrow, various policies began to be implemented.

Not surprisingly, the biggest resistance came from within Long Yiwei. After all, this is an organization that is used to being rampant and domineering, and suddenly wants to put a shackle on its neck, and those old dragon guards immediately quit.

There are not many such people in the Jingshi, after all, there is still Song Zhengzhen. It's different locally, many local guards are captains similar to veteran oil, they have been dragon guards for generations, and they naturally feel that if we win, we should have exclusive power and prestige, why do we have to impose a limit on ourselves?

Song Zheng also expected such a situation, and sent trusted captains in the Jingshiti camp in advance to supervise the suppression in various places.

And he understands even more that what Long Yiwei needs now is not a large number of mixed scum, but an elite army.

It's just that these things can't be done overnight.

Half a month later, Ishihara Hehe Hu led the beast cultivator back to Beijing, Song Zheng and Xiao Zhen went out of the city ten miles to greet them, and the three of them were a little nostalgic when they saw each other, and their eyes were red.

Ishihara did not rest, and immediately began to prepare for the construction of the Supervision Court and the Criminal Litigation Hall together with Xiao Zhen.

Song Zheng believed in their ability to do these things, so he naturally wouldn't interfere. As for the various reactions of the court, the people, and the Long Yiwei, he and Zhou Sheng already had a set of countermeasures.

In a few months, despite all kinds of opposition and doubts, and even another incident in the middle of which the Son of Heaven and his foreign ministers colluded to depose Song Zheng, his plan was finally carried out.

The Supervision Yuan and the Criminal Litigation Hall were established.

The sixth department has become the fifth department, and the system has become a little deformed, and there are often some problems of unclear ownership, but Song Zheng did not take the next step immediately, this kind of thing cannot be urgent, and it is the best choice to follow the step-by-step process.

Seeing that Jingshi was about to enter winter, Song Zheng was a little restless for some reason in the past few days. When it was almost noon, he reviewed a few official documents, and suddenly the voice of His Excellency Huiyi Gong suddenly sounded in his ears: "Song Zheng, come to Zhuhai, the old man has something to tell you." ”
