Chapter 431: The Future of the Great Song Dynasty

If Zhao Zhen was just in power, the reform of the Great Song Dynasty was only the foundation, then now is the climax of the reform......

This drastic reform involves a law that no one dared to touch!

The Great Song Dynasty originally had a unique judicial system in the feudal dynasty.

The division separates the trial and the sentencing, and is presided over by different officials. Sheath, refers to the trial of crimes. Chen, refers to the prosecution and the law to discuss the punishment. This is true both at the central and local levels.

This advanced judicial system once amazed Zhao Zhen.

The Dali Temple and the Criminal Department of the Imperial Court are interrogated by the detailed judge, and the detailed judge is responsible for prosecuting the law and applying the law, and finally the chief in charge of the examination and decision.

Each state capital has a judicial court, and the governor is responsible for interrogating and investigating the facts, etc., and the judicial officer is responsible for prosecuting the law according to the facts, and finally the governor and the prefect personally make a decision.

In this way, abuse of power and dictatorship can be avoided to the greatest extent, and it is difficult to concoct unjust, false and wrongly decided cases unless officials collude with the entire prefecture like Li Derun in Weizhen County.

Such a perfect framework must of course be retained, and Zhao Zhen's constitution is only a detailed reference for officials.

The badger at the entrance of Dali Temple was polished very clean, and hung a big red flower on its chest, Ouyang Xiu, Fan Zhongyan and others respectfully saluted the badger before climbing the stairs to enter Dali Temple.

They will consult all the cases of the Great Song Dynasty since the founding of the country to the present, and write the "Emperor and Song Constitution" against the original "Song Criminal System", Zhao Zhen has already looked at the cases of previous years in the Dali Temple, I am afraid that only Zhao Zhen, the emperor, will arrive in advance and wait for his subordinates.

The head of Dali Temple, Ouyang Xiu and others were slightly stunned after seeing Zhao Zhen in the hall, and then bowed down in unison: "The ministers are afraid, the holy driver has been waiting for a long time!" ”

Zhao Zhen put down the file in his hand and stretched out his hand slightly: "Pingshen, I was planning to go to Dali Temple to look at the old case today, you are just in a hurry, since it is a coincidence, I will remind you that the new law you compiled will be the law that the people and even officials of the Great Song Dynasty must abide by, and it can be said that the people rely on it!" Don't be biased, don't be kind, don't go up and down, don't be close to each other! ”

Zhao Zhen's four inadmissibles are like a sledgehammer hitting everyone's hearts, compiling the "Imperial Song Constitution" is a noble thing, and it is also a good opportunity for them to rise as young officials, if it weren't for Jian Zai's heart, how could they have such a good opportunity, and now that the official family has handed over such an important matter to himself, he will definitely die and serve the king's order!

Zhao Zhen originally wanted to remind them a little, originally they didn't need to remind themselves of this kind of thing, but since they happened to be in a hurry, they would say a word or two.

The reform of the legal system is only a part of Zhao Zhen's reform, with it as the main body to develop in all directions, and even the law has begun to be recodified, what else can not be moved?

In this era of high concentration of imperial power, Zhao Zhen can carry out reforms as he wishes, even if there is a slight resistance in the court, it will not become most of the obstacles, and the reform of Renzong and Shenzong in history is just terminated because he can't withstand the pressure of the courtiers.

Today's Zhao Zhen is not the Emperor Renzong in history, he is also a person who is an outer saint and an inner king, he can treat the people as kind as a saint, but he treats his courtiers like a king.

He can also be as kind as the wind to the courtiers, but his will must be executed, once it is promulgated, no one can stop it, and the emperor has a way This is the great courage of the king, and Zhao Zhen has always handled it very well in this regard.

The middle comment of Dali Temple brought a messenger to move the old files, there were dozens of large boxes, which were full of various files, which were preserved since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, and even the old files of Tokyo City in the Later Zhou Dynasty.

The dossier is well preserved, except for some floating dust, but there are no insect bites and rat bites, which is quite complete.

Zhao Zhen swore that he had seen the next few boxes in the Gyeongbok Palace where his father was cultivating, so even if his father was seriously ill, he would still look through the judgment files of Dali Temple!

Ouyang Xiu and the others started their work, Zhao Zhen naturally would not supervise them, and quietly left through the back door in the busyness of everyone, he did not want to disturb these people who were dedicated to doing things for the country, the so-called etiquette was just a formality, as long as they compiled the new law, it was the biggest etiquette for themselves.

Zhao Zhen left Dali Temple, the autumn breeze is cool, the autumn sun shines on the carriage of the carriage has a different kind of warmth, in front of the vigorous Song Dynasty Tokyo City, the carriage is slowly moving on the road, on both sides are the people on foot, and now there are no beggars in the city of Tokyo.

Zhao Zhen sighed slightly, in the past, there were beggars in Tokyo City, no matter how prosperous and poor the city, but now Tokyo City will not be starved to death as long as you have hands and feet, and the factories outside the city and the shops in the city need manpower.

And the Kaifeng Mansion will have an appropriation from the imperial court every year to help orphans and orphans, and if the remaining young and strong dare to beg on the streets, they will have their own board from Kaifeng Mansion to give him food!

The city of Tokyo maintains its rapid development, in Zhao Zhen's eyes, the transaction of every commodity, the harvest of every grain is to save energy for the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty, and now the party does not dare to touch the edge of the Great Song Dynasty, and the Liao Dynasty is struggling in its own civil strife, which is an opportunity given by God to the Great Song Dynasty.

The stability of the external environment prompted the Great Song Dynasty to undergo transformation, so Zhao Zhen acted as a lawyer at a time when he was invincible to foreign patients.

Zhao Zhen in the carriage frowned slightly when he looked at the prosperity of Tokyo City, it seemed that the Great Song Dynasty was strong, but Zhao Zhen still had a deep uneasiness in his heart, and it could even be said that he was afraid, and in the depths of the prairie, there was still the "Yellow Peril" of God's whip!

Although it is still far away, it is a force that destroys the world, and it also makes the Chinese civilization have a nightmare of falling off a cliff.

There is no China after Yashan, and there is no China after the death of the Ming Dynasty! This is the catastrophe of Chinese civilization, the catastrophe, everything Zhao Zhen did was to prepare for the arrival of this catastrophe, he was lucky, maybe his changes to the Great Song Dynasty would make this catastrophe disappear.

Perhaps leaving a solid foundation for future generations will avoid the fate of being lost in this catastrophe......

In Zhao Zhen's eyes, the party is a corner of the south, and its only chance is to develop to the Western Regions, and the Liao Dynasty is only built on a foundation that will collapse at any time, and the Jurchen Jin State will destroy it sooner or later.

Yelu Zong is really just a naïve emperor, he has to learn more than his father Yelu Longxu, the reason why Yelu Longxu is respected as a holy sect is because his statecraft and vision surpass the emperors of the Liao Dynasty in the past dynasties, although it is an enemy country, but Zhao Zhen will not deny his ability.

During the Yelu Longxu period, the internal reform was carried out, the rule of officials was vigorously rectified, the virtuous were eliminated, the Tang system was imitated, and the scholars were opened. Strengthen the composition and role of the Han Chinese in the ruling circles. Make the Khitan reach the top. Externally, the policy of uniting the party to resist the Song Dynasty was implemented, and the surrounding areas were expanded, and the four sides came to the court.
