There are more than 20 prisons in the Song Dynasty, including Yushitai Prison, Dali Temple Prison, Sanya Prison, Sansi Prison, Sipaian Prison, Dazong Zhengsi Prison, Imperial City Prison, Kaifeng Mansion Prison and so on.

Among them, Kaifeng Prefecture Prison has jurisdiction over Silu Prison, Left and Right Military Patrol Prison, Duxiang Prison and prisons in Chi and Ji counties.

Among them, the Silu Prison and the Left and Right Military Patrol Prisons are combined into the "Three Courts Prison", and the Silu Division mainly hears civil cases, so the Silu Prison is mainly the plaintiff, defendant and cadres who detain civil cases, that is, witnesses.

The Left and Right Military Patrol Courts mainly hear criminal cases, so the Left and Right Military Patrol Courts detain the plaintiffs, defendants, and cadres of criminal cases.

Bi Lin, the convict of the case of Bi's sister-in-law (jiān), was detained in the prison of the Right Army Patrol Yuan.

Generally speaking, the cases heard by the Left Military Patrol Court need to be submitted to the Left Department for trial, while the cases heard by the Right Military Patrol Court are submitted to the Right Department judge or magistrate for trial. Of course, this is only a general (qíng) situation, if it is a special (qíng) situation, such as an official Ding Worry or other things (qíng) cannot be handled, it can also be submitted interchangeably.

So the case of Bi's sister-in-law (jiān) came into the hands of Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian (yù) interrogated the prisoner again, Bi Lin had to pass through the Right Army Patrol Court, and he had to pass the Right Army Patrol Court Military Inspector Hu Sanshui.

"Ouch, what's the wind blowing today? The official and the prime minister are here, and they are welcome to their duties! Hu Sanshui, the military patrol envoy of the Right Army, saw that Li Sanjian came to the Right Army Patrol Courtyard with some officials, and hurriedly came out to greet him.

Hu Sanshui, who is in his thirties, is also a jinshi branch (shēn), and the current Jilu official grade is the same as Li Sanjian's, and he is also from the seventh grade, but his official position is under Li Sanjian, the so-called official level crushes people to death, and the county official is not as good as the current management, so Hu Sanshui welcomed Li Sanjian into the right army patrol courtyard with a smile on his face.

"Envoy Hu doesn't have to be polite." Li Sanjian waved his hand and said: "Today (rì) this official came to inspect the courtyard, not for anything else, but for the interrogation of Bi Lin, I wonder if Hu Jun's envoy can make it convenient?" ”

Li Sanjian still insisted on his own judgment and insisted that there must be a hidden (qíng) in the case of Bi's sister-in-law, so he brought people to the Right Army Patrol Court to personally interrogate Bi Lin.

"(jiān) Sister-in-law's Bi Lin?" Hearing this, Hu Sanshui glanced at Zhou Fanggeng on Li Sanjian's side in disbelief, and Zhou Fanggeng's face showed a trace of helplessness and annoyance.

"How do you say this, how dare you stop Li Tuiguan from arraigning criminals?" Hu Sanshui then said to Li Sanjian: "But... However, the human and physical evidence in this case is complete, and after the inquest, it has been concluded. ”

A hint of anger flashed on Li Sanjian's face when he heard this.

Is it so difficult to interrogate an individual yourself? First Zhou Fanggeng blocked it, and after coming to the military patrol courtyard, Hu Sanshui, the patrol envoy of the right army, also blocked it?

"Bond?" Li Sanjian was annoyed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he just said lightly: "The official hasn't sealed yet, how can he make a conclusion?" ”

Generally speaking, even if a case is complete with human and physical evidence, it must be signed and sealed by the official and palindrome, and the palindrome can only be executed, and then the clerk of Kaifeng Mansion will write the closing document after the execution, and the case will be truly concluded at this time.

Are they really deceiving? Bullying yourself as a newly appointed pusher? Bullied yourself for not understanding this (tào) judicial process? Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.

"This..." Hearing this, Hu Sanshui replied: "The file has been handed over to the left hall. ”

"This is the palindrome of Judge Shu of the Left Hall." Hu Sanshui then took out a palindrome and handed it to Li Sanjian.

Li Sanjian was suddenly furious when he heard this, turned his head to stare at Zhou Fanggeng, and the hands that took the palindrome trembled slightly with anger.

Zhou Fanggeng looked at the palindrome in Li Sanjian's hand with some pride.

You are toasting and not eating and drinking, don't think that you are a champion, a pusher, and you can't do anything? Zhou Fanggeng secretly said in his heart, you must know that in addition to the prefect Lu Changheng in Kaifeng Mansion, there is also a judge and two pushers, and it is not you Li Sanjian who has the final say.

Arrogant child, do you want to retrial? You're still a little tender!

"Hmph, let's go." Li Sanjian snorted, and left the military patrol courtyard with Zeng Gongming in embarrassment.

It's simply embarrassing, Li Sanjian didn't expect Zhou Fanggeng to treat him like this, he didn't sign and seal, he actually went to the left hall and quickly closed the case, which is simply intolerable.

The most infuriating thing is that the case has been concluded, but Zhou Fanggeng didn't tell himself, and pretended to accompany himself to the military patrol hospital to embarrass people... Li Sanjian felt his face hot.

While Li Sanjian was angry, he was secretly surprised in his heart.

Li Sanjian is an official from the seventh grade, and Zhou Fanggeng is just an official, not even an official, let alone a grade, but at this time, Zhou Fanggeng was able to bypass himself and quickly close the case, which shows that Zhou Fanggeng can't take it lightly.

The officials of the Zuo Hall, the Military Patrol Yuan, the Imperial Court, and even the officials under the rule of Li Sanjian, these people do not need to think about it, they must have formed a thorough net, and it is difficult for outsiders to infiltrate it, so Zhou Fanggeng can be said to be deeply rooted in the Kaifeng Mansion.

Zhou Fanggeng humiliated and despised Shangguan so much, but Li Sanjian had nothing to do with him, at least for now.

Zhou Fanggeng also acted completely in accordance with the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, what could Li Sanjian do to him?

。。。。。。。。

The system of the Song Dynasty's official examination is a small examination every year, a major examination every three years, and only after the three-year examination will they be promoted or transferred, that is to say, the three-year term system is adopted. Generally speaking, Song officials have a chance to be promoted after serving for at least three years in a position, while the prefects of Kaifeng Prefecture in the Song dynasties have a long tenure of one to two years, and the short number (rì) is rolled up and rolled out, and the average tenure is only about ten months...

The reason for this is nothing more than three main reasons, one of which is the party dispute, Kaifeng Mansion is the capital of the world, so the old and new parties will Kaifeng Mansion as the main warship, the two sides come and go, desperately compete for the position of the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture, so that the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture changes frequently, and the term of office is short.

The second is the emperor's precautions to prevent the courtiers from staying in the big position for a long time to form a force, especially the special envoy Gyeonggi Heavyland.

The third is (rì) increasingly heavy affairs, the population of Kaifeng Mansion has reached more than one million, involving state affairs, people's livelihood is the most complicated, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture is facing no less than thousands of government affairs (rì), coupled with the fact that the royal relatives and nobles in the capital often make obstructions, so that it is more difficult to deal with the government, so it is difficult to govern, the error rate is high, a little careless, and it is possible to offend any royal relatives, princes and ministers, so as to dismiss the official and remove him.

Therefore, the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture is the most difficult prefect in the world, and most of the Kaifeng Prefecture is inactive in his tenure, and then moved elsewhere.

More things are better than less things, more things mean more opportunities to make mistakes, Quan Zhi Kaifeng Mansion Lu Changheng (rì) sat in the mansion, while leisurely drinking fragrant tea, while thinking about his own thoughts.

Lu Changheng is already sixty and six this year, and according to the Song system of seventy, then Lu Changheng will have four or five years at most, so what else can Lu Changheng do?

After a year and a half, he moved to other high-ranking officials of the imperial court, and then mixed for a few more years, and then took a rich fortune to become a minister, and returned to his hometown to live for a long time.

Therefore, at this time, Lu Changheng can ignore everything and leave all the affairs of Kaifeng Mansion to his subordinates to take care of, and he can settle down easily.

If there is any omission in the matter (qíng), a scapegoat can be found...

"Humble to meet the prefect of Lu." Li Sanjian, who was in a green official robe, respectfully saluted Lu Changheng in a purple official robe, and then put some official documents on the table in front of Lu Changheng and said: "This is the government affairs handled by these (rì) subordinates, please see it in person." ”

Although the prefect of Kaifeng Prefecture came to the government from time to time, his subordinate officials still had to deal with government affairs and hand them over to him for reading when Lu Changheng was there, and some major events still needed to be personally investigated by him.

"Hehe" Lu Changheng gently pushed the official document in front of him away by half an inch and said with a smile: "It is up to you to dispose of it, you are all capable ministers, especially you Li Tuiguan, who is the champion of my dynasty, so what else is the old man worried about?" ”

"Thank you for the praise of the Enfu, and the lowly position is terrified." Li Sanjian thanked him.

"Okay, okay, sit down, come here, serve tea." Seeing that Li Sanjian was extremely humble and retreated, Lu Changheng couldn't help but secretly like it in his heart, and said to Li Sanjian with a smile.

When the government officials heard this, they brought the fragrant tea that had already been brewed to Li Sanjian.

"Thank you for the seat." Li Sanjian sat down and thanked again.

"It's so young." Lu Changheng couldn't help but admire when he saw the young and heroic Li Sanjian: "The old man really envies you young and strong people, if the old man is twenty years younger, he will definitely do a great career like you!" It's a pity that the old man is dying, and he has more than enough heart but not enough strength. ”

"What's the Enfu?" Li Sanjian replied with a smile: "What's so good about being young? Less is not more, impulsive, easy to make mistakes, where is it like Enfu so Bo Gu Tong Jin, Lao Cheng sees, and is as stable as Mount Tai? Enfu is really the mainstay of the imperial court, as solid as a rock. ”

"Oh? What does Li Tuiguan think? Lu Changheng raised his eyes and glanced at Li Sanjian, trying to distinguish whether Li Sanjian's words were true or false.

However, whether it is true or false, compliments are always very comfortable to hear, so Lu Changheng said to Li Sanjian: "Li Tuiguan's words are not unreasonable, young people, they are always impulsive when they do things, and they don't think about it in detail, but those old officials in the mansion have been in the mansion for a long time, so they are a little bullied, and Li Tuiguan doesn't have to worry about them, don't take it to heart." ”

Lu Changheng is not a director, which does not mean that he is ignorant, and there are many officials in the government who are eyes and ears.

Li Sanjian was silent when he heard this.

Li Sanjian, who had just taken office, was already a little struggling in Kaifeng Mansion at this time, and he secretly embarrassed Li Sanjian up and down, and gave Li Sanjian "small shoes" to wear, the reason was that Li Sanjian did not join them.

At this time, Li Sanjian saw Lu Changheng's purpose and intended to seek support from him, but this person's attitude was ambiguous, and he also faintly wanted to persuade Li Sanjian, which made Li Sanjian secretly annoyed in his heart.

Are they all complicit? Li Sanjian said secretly in his heart.
