Chapter Seventy-Nine: Bringing the Prisoner to Attention

On this side, above the court, Ouyang Xiu and Wang Gongchen served as brothers-in-law, but because of Wang Hao's proposal to set up a school for men and women to study together, the argument was inextricable, and in the end, Ouyang Xiu won.

However, Song Renzong Zhao Zhen did not accept Wang Hao's proposal to set up a school for men and women in Sanwu Village, and in order to be able to implement this somewhat shocking new policy step by step, he decided to implement it in Tokyo before the tide receded.

In the course of six months, if the effect is satisfactory in the city of Tokyo, it will spread to the state capital, and so on, from the state capital to the county seat, and finally to the lower villages.

According to this step and time, it will take at least two years to complete the goal of allowing the three or five villages to jointly run schools.

It is worth mentioning that on the court today, Song Renzong Zhao Zhen tried his best to disagree with the public and appointed Fan Zhongyan and Han Qi as both privy deputy envoys, and within ten days, they drafted a new policy and issued an order, and they needed to go to the Vertical Arch Hall every day to report the progress to Song Renzong Zhao Zhen.

Over there, Wang Hao had already woken up before he arrived, and with hundreds of street division guards, carrying the official document issued to him by Bao Zheng yesterday afternoon, he went to the Kaifeng Mansion Prison to pick up people non-stop.

Because a few days ago, Wang Hao went to the Kaifeng Mansion Prison to meet the imprisoned Fan Zhongyan, and when he walked out of the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, he went with Yin Baozheng of Kaifeng Mansion.

Therefore, early this morning, Wang Hao came to the gate of the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, he explained his intention to the jailer guarding the gate, and took out the documents signed by Bao Zheng and stamped with the Kaifeng Mansion print, the jailer guarding the gate did not dare to stop it, but respectfully welcomed Wang Hao into the Kaifeng Mansion Prison alone.

According to the regulations of the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, Wang Hao was only allowed to enter alone, and the hundreds of street guards brought by Wang Hao were waiting outside the gate of the Kaifeng Mansion Prison to hand over to the jailers who escorted the prisoners out at that time.

Cheng Dian Prison, who was in charge of guarding the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, stood in front of the door of his office room, and saw Wang Hao walking from a distance, so he hurriedly stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and bowed his hand quite respectfully: "Wang Sicheng, you came here really early, and the lower officials have been waiting here for a long time." ”

Cheng Dian Prison, who managed tens of thousands of prisoners in the Kaifeng Mansion Prison, was in his early forties, more than twice as old as Wang Hao, who was in his twenties.

However, a few days ago, Wang Hao's official was promoted to one level, from the previous eight grades to the current eight grades, and this Cheng Dian Prison is a hungry nine grade official, in terms of official rank and grade, Wang Hao is above Cheng Dian Prison, the two met, and naturally Cheng Dian Prison said hello to Wang Hao.

Wang Hao, who came closer, also bowed his hand politely, and followed Cheng Dianjiao into the office room, sitting opposite each other in front of a desk that looked a little shabby.

"Cheng Dian Prison, how many prisoners are in line with the prisoners I took today, have you counted them out?" After Wang Hao sat down at the table, he asked Cheng Dianjiao, who was sitting opposite him, and went straight to the topic.

In the face of Wang Hao's inquiry, Cheng Dianjiao first put the small stack of thread-bound books placed in front of him, pushed his hands to Wang Hao, who was sitting opposite him, and replied quite respectfully: "Wang Sicheng, after receiving the official document from Kaifeng Mansion yesterday afternoon, I fought all night long, and spent a whole night of hard work to conduct a detailed verification and statistics of the prisoners who met the requirements for Wang Sicheng to take away, and in my Kaifeng Mansion prison, a total of 6,352 people met the requirements. The lower officials have all been registered, and they hope that Wang Sicheng will see it. ”

For the small stack of books pushed in front of Cheng Dianjiao, Wang Hao lowered his head and looked at it, if he checked them one by one, I am afraid that he would not be able to finish checking them in two or three hours.

After thinking about it for a while, Wang Hao immediately had an idea, and first complimented him: "There is Lao Cheng Prison, and the prisons of Kaifeng Mansion are under your jurisdiction, and the prisoners held in this prison are naturally no one more familiar with you than you." Now that Cheng Dianjiao has finished checking, Wang will no longer look at them one by one. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Hao deliberately paused twice, and then changed the conversation and proposed: "However, in order to be able to hand over the business to Yin Baogong of Kaifeng Mansion as soon as possible, I also ask Cheng Dian Prison to stamp the Yin Xin of your Kaifeng Mansion Prison on these books that have been sorted out, as well as the signature and drawing of Cheng Prison, I will take it to Kaifeng Mansion Yin Bao Bus Errand." ”

According to the official letter issued by Yin Baozheng of Kaifeng Prefecture to Wang Hao and Cheng Dian Prison respectively, Wang Hao is required to go to Kaifeng Prefecture Prison before noon today to remove the prisoners who have been taken away, and among these prisoners who have been taken away, those who have committed serious crimes and the death penalty will be excluded.

At present, Wang Hao is worried about building a cement road on Liangmen Avenue and no one is available, so he proposed to Bao Zheng and Fan Zhongyan yesterday afternoon in the Kaifeng Mansion to use the prisoners detained in the Kaifeng Mansion Prison as laborers, and immediately received the consent of Bao Zheng and Fan Zhongyan.

If Wang Hao can successfully raise these more than 5,000 prisoners from the Kaifeng Mansion prison, he will immediately solve the problem of manpower shortage, rather than detaining some non-felons in the prison, it is better to release them to work to resist punishment, in the eyes of Bao Zheng and Fan Zhongyan, this is a great innovation.

Because of these prisoners who were imprisoned in the Kaifeng Mansion prison, almost everyone had tattoos on their cheeks, and they had to wear shackles for them, which just freed their hands, even if they were released to work for the street division, not to mention that there were street division guards and supervisors on the side, the probability of them trying to escape was very small.

For Wang Hao's proposal, Cheng Dianjiao naturally knew that if he was the only one who signed and signed these books and stamped his official seal, once something happened in the future, he would be responsible alone.

"Wang Sicheng, Xia Guan received an official letter from Bao Daguan yesterday afternoon, saying that before noon today, let you and I hand over these prisoners. On these books that record prisoners, you and I should sign and seal them, and affix the official seals of your street division and my Kaifeng prison respectively. Cheng Dianjiao didn't want to bear the possible consequences alone, so while politely refusing, he proposed that he take responsibility with Wang Hao.

Seeing that this Cheng Dianjiao didn't buy his account, he showed a very resolute attitude, if he continued to negotiate on this matter, I am afraid that in the end it will still be fruitless.

Instead of wasting time with Cheng Dian Prison here, it is better to quickly take away the more than 5,000 prisoners who meet the requirements, after all, time waits for no one, and seeing that the construction of a cement road on Liangmen Street is about to start, he will no longer continue to entangle.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Wang Hao took out the official seal of the street division from his arms, and stamped the official seal on the books in front of him with Cheng Dianjiao, as well as signed and signed them, so that the two of them could jointly guarantee it.
