Li Yun knew that if he went to fight for the position of the secretary of the criminal department, it would definitely be unfavorable, and if he wanted the situation to be more favorable to him, he must learn to use the public.

He knew that half of the people in the court were the Queen Mother's people and half the Prime Minister's people, and they would still have endless disputes at that time, and at that time, Li Yun was thinking of a compromise solution, and at that time, neither the Prime Minister nor the Queen Mother would be able to say anything.

At this time, the ministers of the court began to speak, and one by one stood up and spoke.

Their speeches are nothing more than two kinds, some are in support of the Queen Mother, and one is in support of the Prime Minister.

Li Yun didn't listen to their speeches much, and the result was obvious that the two sides were deadlocked.

After all the ministers finished speaking, Li Yun frowned and said: "What you said is reasonable, I am also in a dilemma, you said that if you let this Zhu Jian become the secretary of the criminal department, then Chen Xingcai's hard work is unreasonable, you said that if Chen Xingcai is made the secretary of the criminal department, Zhu Jian's ability cannot be displayed, it is really difficult to do." ”

"But I thought of a compromise solution, since everyone is deadlocked, if you don't let them compete, how about the winner to be the secretary of the Criminal Department?" Li Yun looked at everyone and asked.

Although Li Yun was asking the courtiers, the people Li Yun really asked were the prime minister and the queen mother.

In fact, the prime minister also knew that Li Yun didn't want to offend both parties, so he thought of such a compromise solution.

And now that he and the Queen Mother are in a stalemate, it seems that this is the only way to fight for it.

"I think it's okay, since the Queen Mother thinks that the person you recommend can outperform the person I recommend, why don't you let them try, who has the highest ability, and who will take this position?" Lin Ruofu asked.

Lin Ruofu is such a treacherous person, of course he has thought of a countermeasure.

The competition of the criminal department's book, of course, is the content of the criminal department's book, and Chen Xingcai, the waiter of the criminal department, has been a waiter of the criminal department for so many years, who knows the affairs of the criminal department better than him?

So he was not afraid!

Lin Ruofu glanced at Li Yun with some meaning, and he thought to himself, maybe it was because Li Yun was biased towards himself that he would propose this.

The Queen Mother's face changed slightly, if it was a competition, she would not have an advantage.

But now that we are in such a situation, there is no other way than to compete, and the best way at the moment is to let the questions be in your own hands.

"Your Majesty, it's okay to compete, but I want to test them in person!" At this time, the Queen Mother spoke.

The prime minister stepped forward and said: "Since the Queen Mother wants to come up with a question, then naturally the old man can't be left behind, the Queen Mother and I will each have a question, and Your Majesty will have another question, how about it?"

The prime minister knew that Li Yun was on his side, so he would definitely be biased towards himself.

"Okay, I agreed, but since it's a talent selection, I think everyone has a chance, and it just so happens that I also have a talent here, and I want him to test it too. Li Yun said lightly.

"Di Renjie!"

"The minister is here!" At this time, Di Renjie came forward from the back and knelt in front of Li Yun.

Seeing this, the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister realized that they had been tricked all along, everything was Li Yunbu's bureau, and everything they did was for Li Yun to make a wedding dress, and Li Yun's purpose was to win the position of the secretary of the Criminal Department.

"Di Renjie is also my guest, but he has an advantage, that is, he is not inferior to anyone in terms of criminal punishment and case handling, so I want him to come and compete with him. ”

"Since both the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister can recommend people to compete, then I, as the Lord of Great Qin and the Emperor of Great Qin, I should be able to recommend a courtier. ”

Li Yun moved out of Daqin, at this time, it was reasonable for Li Yun to recommend people to come out for the competition, in this case, even the queen mother and the prime minister couldn't say anything.

The Queen Mother and the Prime Minister both looked at Li Yun, and they knew that they had been calculated by Li Yun again.

It's just that this time, Li Yun hasn't completely calculated yet, because there is still a chance to compete.

As long as you win the competition, no matter whose calculations you make, it's useless!

So the key to everything is the competition.

Each of them has the opportunity to come up with a question, and that question is the key to determining the outcome of the game.

But they didn't know that for Li Yun, Li Yun had already won.

Because the minister recommended by Li Yun is Di Renjie.

Who is Di Renjie?

At that time, Wu Zetian's confidant minister was extremely smart, although he was only a Dali Temple, but with his intelligence, it was more than enough to be a criminal department scholar.

And Zhu Jian, Chen Caixing, and Li Yun knew that in his opinion, they were just two rice buckets, and they couldn't be compared with Di Renjie at all.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's start the competition, Queen Mother, you can come up with the question first!" Li Yun said.

The Queen Mother glanced at the three of them, and said lightly: "The Shangshu of the Criminal Department is an important task in the court, in charge of the outline and justice of my Daqin, ordinary people can't afford it, if you want to serve as the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, you must have a strong aura, the test questions of the mourning family are very simple, there are not many criminals in prison who are not ambushed, if any of you make them confess, it will be the one who wins!"

Li Yun looked at the prime minister and said, "Prime minister, what about your topic?"

The prime minister said lightly: "The Criminal Department is a case-handling agency, so the Shangshu of the Criminal Department must be smart and intelligent, and have a certain ability to handle cases, so the minister thinks that if the three of them can break the backlog of cases on those files, it will be regarded as a winner." ”

"Okay, since the prime minister and the queen mother have no topic, then I will also have a topic. ”

"My topic is the simplest, as long as you can recite my Daqin's criminal law, I will count you as a winner!"

"But I have a request, I want you to memorize it within the time of a stick of incense!"

Li Yun looked at the three of them and said lightly: "The topic of the Queen Mother and the Prime Minister takes time, then I will give you three days, which of you has more people to suppress and solve more cases, then it is who wins, and I can do it now." ”

"As an official in my Great Qin, I asked you to memorize the criminal law on the first day of being an official, so you don't need to prepare!"

"Come on, light incense!"

Li Yun commanded sharply.

At this time, a few people immediately came up and lit a stick of incense.

"Alright, let's get started!"

"Zhu Jian, you come first!"

Zhu Jian stepped forward, he didn't expect the emperor to let them be criminalized, although every official of the criminal law was required to memorize, but there was no one who really memorized it, how could he remember?

"Article 1: As a citizen of Great Qin, you should abide by discipline and law. ”

"Article 2, Article 2. ”

When it came to the second one, Zhu Jian was a little stumbling.

"Alright, next!"

At this time, Chen Xingcai, the waiter of the Criminal Department, came forward to recite.

Chen Xingcai is a waiter in the criminal department, and he often deals with criminal law, so he still remembers a lot, and he began to memorize it.

"Article 1 ......"

"Article 2 ......."

"Article 36 ......"

When he memorized the thirty-six articles to the end, Chen Xingcai couldn't memorize them.

At this time, Li Yun slapped the table angrily and said sharply: "The laws of Great Qin, those who are officials should remember the laws, otherwise they can revoke their official positions, you can't even remember my laws of Great Qin, and you still want to be the secretary of the criminal department? I don't think anything else needs to be compared!"

"Di Renjie, you come and memorize, let them listen carefully!"
