If it is an ordinary person, after hearing Zhang Lun's words, he will inevitably open his mouth to explain.

Is Koji an ordinary person?

Koji is not.

He said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency is interrogating the lower officials? ”

Zhang Lun was stunned for a moment, frowned, and said, "In front of this official, do you still have to pretend to be stupid?" Others don't know what you've done, but the official knows it clearly. ”

Kou Ji stared at Zhang Lun and said: "According to the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, if an official of the imperial court violates the law, he should first report to Dali Temple, and then the Dali Temple will hand over the book to the inner court, and only after the approval of the three Zaifu in the inner court can he be imprisoned and interrogated."

If the adults feel that the lower officials have violated the law, they can report to the Dali Temple, let them go to the inner court, and after getting the arrest documents, they will arrest the lower officials and send them to prison for questioning, and the lower officials will never resist. ”

Zhang Lun wants to give him a dismissal, but he really can't let Zhang Lun get his way.

When Zhang Lun heard this, his eyes widened, "Did you expect that the official would not be able to catch your incriminating evidence, so you are so fearless?" ”

Without waiting for Kou Ji to speak, Zhang Lun said with burning words: "The Wu family is defeated, and your shadow is everywhere. Do you dare to say that you are not guilty? ”

Kou Ji glanced at Zhang Lun and said lightly: "The defeat of the Wu family is purely Wu Xian's own fault. If he hadn't hurt anyone's lives and had not been corrupt and perverted the law, how could he have been convicted and distributed. ”

Zhang Lun got up suddenly, stared at Kou Ji, and asked, "In front of Jingling Palace, the female assassin who assassinated you disappeared after you brought her into Kou Mansion, what do you explain?" Why don't you hand people over to the Criminal Department, or Dali Temple? ”

Kou Ji said in a deep voice: "The identity of the female assassin is suspected of being hidden in the palace, do you think the lower officials can hand over people to the Criminal Department or Dali Temple?" ”

Zhang Lun frowned and didn't say a word.

Kou Ji said that the identity of the female assassin was suspected of being hidden in the palace, and with Zhang Lun's years of reasoning experience, he roughly deduced the identity of the female assassin.

Eighty percent of the female assassins were Taoists, Taoists related to the killing in the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace.

It's about Zhao Heng, this really can't be said explicitly, let alone explicitly.

Zhang Lun looked at Kou Ji and said, "Then you entered Bianjing, but in just a few days, you actually collected more than 100,000 pieces of family wealth, how do you explain it?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned for a moment, glanced at Zhang Lun, and sighed: "Things in the business field, you don't understand...... adults"

Zhang Lun was annoyed, "The official doesn't understand the things in the business field, but the money in and out has a name." You make a list and let the official take a good look at how you got all this money. ”

Kou Ji pouted and said, "My lord, this is to check the accounts of Kou Mansion?" ”

Zhang Lun froze in place, staring, and didn't say a word.

After a long time, the anger on his face disappeared, and he suddenly laughed out loud, "Hahaha...... Not bad, not bad, you kid is good. It's much stronger than those wine bags and rice bags sent by the imperial court before. ”

This changes face too quickly, right?

It's unbelievably fast.

Kou Ji was stunned for a long time, looked at Zhang Lun with a strange expression, and asked, "Your Excellency was testing the lower official just now?" ”

Zhang Lun nodded with a smile and said enthusiastically: "Yes, this official is testing you." Let's mention the Criminal Prison Division, which is in charge of the world's criminal prisons, if the people who do things are not clever enough, it is easy to be fooled by those corrupt officials and evil officials below.

It must be known that any negligence on the part of the Criminal Prison Department may make a person die in vain, and it is not allowed to be careless. ”

Kou Ji was full of doubts, and arched his hand: "I have been taught......"

Looking at Zhang Lun's smiling face, Kou Ji always felt that this thing was playing tricks on himself.

The hard one just now didn't scare him, and the hard one didn't scare him, and the soft one came again, trying to trick him into letting down his guard and cleaning him up again.

It must be guarded against!

"Judge Kou, come and sit down."

Zhang Lun didn't know what Kou Ji was thinking, he smiled and asked Kou Ji to sit next to him not far away.

As Zhang Lun's first deputy, the judge naturally had to sit in the nearest place to Zhang Lun.

After Kou Ji sat down, Zhang Lun coughed lightly and said, "Colleagues, you don't need to be introduced by this official, you should all know Judge Kou, right?" ”

The officials sitting under Zhang Lun nodded one after another.

Zhang Lun said to Kou Ji: "This official introduces you to your colleagues and their responsibilities......"

Under Zhang Lun's introduction, Kou Ji gradually got to know his colleagues and knew their responsibilities.

To Kou Ji's surprise, the Yamen of the Criminal Department is not big, and there are a lot of things in charge, and in terms of authority, it is not lost to the six departments.

Under the Criminal Division, there are not only the original Governor of Criminal Prisons, but also the Governor of Supervision, the Governor of Sealing Piles, the Governor of Qiangu, the Governor of Anti-Theft, the Governor of Baojia, and the Governor of Hequ.

In a nutshell, what can be managed by the six ministries can also be managed by the Criminal Division, and what the six departments cannot manage, the Criminal Division can also manage.

The Punishment Division has become a small court.

Kou Ji knew that the Song Dynasty was redundant, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

The imperial court has a criminal department in the criminal prison, and the criminal department is also hung under the criminal department, but the power of the criminal department is too large, involving other departments, and the criminal department has no right to interfere.

In addition to the Imperial Historical Observatory, the imperial court also has the Transit Division, the Pacification Division, the Changping Division, and the Criminal Prison Division, and there are as many as five supervision departments. The functions of the Criminal Prison Department are duplicated with those of the Transport Department, the Pacification Department, and the Changping Division.

In addition, the judges of the imperial court in the prefectures and counties also have the power to supervise, and can secretly report to the emperor at any time.

The imperial court set up tens of thousands of officials in the supervision function.

Among them, how many people are really in charge and can really play a supervisory role?

The rest of the responsibilities will not be mentioned one by one.

In short, when Kou Ji arrived at the Criminal Division, in less than an hour, he clearly understood how serious the redundant officials of the Song Dynasty were.

After helping Kou Ji introduce his colleagues and their duties, Zhang Lun said to him: "In recent months, prisoners from all over the country have been gradually escorted to the capital, and many of them have been unjust, false and wrongly decided. When you first arrived at the Criminal Prosecution Division, you were not familiar with all the functions, so you first went with your own official to inspect the prison, and learned from distinguishing unjust, false and wrongly decided cases. ”

Kou Ji arched his hand and said, "Can you go back another day?" ”

Zhang Lun was stunned for a moment, a flash of displeasure flashed in his eyes, and he said indifferently: "Why?" ”

Kou Ji said: "On the way here, Xia Guan was assassinated. ”

Zhang Lun raised his eyebrows and said in amazement: "Assassination again?" ”

Kou Ji straightened his official uniform, revealing the three arrow holes on it, and said: "On the way here just now, I was hit by three arrows, if it weren't for the lower official wearing soft armor, I'm afraid I would have died on the spot." ”

Zhang Lun was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "In broad daylight, it is really unreasonable to dare to assassinate the officials of the imperial court. ”

"Left and right, send orders to all ministries and give them a strict investigation to the officials, but the officials want to see who has the courage to commit crimes at the feet of the Son of Heaven."

"Go to the Inspection Department again and ask the official, how did they take office, and let the murderers assassinate the court officials on the street? Tell them that if there are any more murderers, let them go to the criminal department and drink tea with the officer. ”

"Take the official's official post to Kaifeng Mansion, tell the young Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and let him dispatch the officials of Kaifeng Mansion to check the official from door to door."

"Within three days, we must find out this murderer!"

"喏~"

The officers who were guarding on both sides of Zhang Lun immediately went down to give orders.

It can be seen that Zhang Lun attaches great importance to this matter.

After giving the order, Zhang Lun asked coldly, "Kou Ji, did someone from the Wu family come to take revenge on you?" ”

Kou Ji was stunned for a moment and squinted at Zhang Lun.

Seeing that Kou Ji didn't blurt out an answer, Zhang Lun smiled dryly: "The official just asked casually." If you are frightened today, you don't need to be on duty, go back to the house to rest first, and come back to the yamen tomorrow. ”

Kou Ji glanced at Zhang Lun without a trace.

I cursed in my heart......

This shit really wants to hurt me!

"Retire!"

Kou Ji arched his hand expressionlessly and exited the main hall.

As soon as Kou Ji left, Zhang Lun put away the smile on his face, squinted his eyes and muttered: "Eighty percent of the people who assassinated this little guy were Taoists. The official family caused trouble, let this little guy carry it, the official family is really ......

Speaking of which, this little guy is also very powerful, I thought that he was not very old, and he had not been in Bianjing City for a long time, and he had not yet passed the doorway of officialdom.

I didn't expect my tone to be so tight, and I didn't look like a newcomer to officialdom at all.

The affairs of the Wu family are all his shadow.

The officer must find out what he has done in this regard.

Although Wu Xian was to blame, he was also guilty of arson and pretending to be a servant of Kaifeng Prefecture.

There is no room for the guilty around the officer. ”
