Pei Min was a foreign minister, and the temple meeting in Chang'an had nothing to do with it.

But Pei Min has already developed the habit of getting up early, reading books for half an hour, and practicing swords for half an hour. Unless there are special circumstances, this lifestyle habit is deeply rooted in the bone marrow and has not been changed.

When the news of He Zhizhang's assassination reached Pei's mansion, Pei Min was reading the Analects.

As one of the Confucian classics, the Analects is an ancient book compiled by Confucius's disciples and his followers, which mainly records the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples, reflects Confucius's thoughts in a concentrated manner, and is also the book that can best appreciate the essence of Confucianism.

The language of the entire secretary is extremely concise and subtle.

Pei Min crossed over and first came into contact with the "Analects", the most read book five years ago, in addition to the art of war is the "Analects", now he has traveled here, more than ten years, he is still reading the book "Analects", many truths in the text, it is indeed thought-provoking.

The most classic is "to repay grievances with straightforwardness, and to repay virtue with virtue".

What Confucius is talking about here is to repay grievances with directness, not to repay grievances with grievances.

This straightness and resentment are worth scrutinizing.

The meaning is obviously not much different, why should you use straight instead of complaining?

Situations like this abound, and in terms of the ideological realm alone, Confucius deserves to call a "sacred" character.

Just as he was watching with relish, Ning Ze came with the news of He Zhizhang's assassination.

"Childe, He Shangshu has already asked Wu Yuan to send him to the Rende Medical Center, and the specific situation is not clear. He Shangshu didn't seem to be in danger, but he fell off his horse in a panic......"

Before he finished speaking, Pei Min had already swept past him like a gust of wind, rushing straight to the stable.

He Zhizhang's situation, he didn't say, Pei Min didn't know much, but the more this is the case, the more dangerous it can be.

Although Pei Min didn't believe it, someone dared to attack and kill the Sanpin master.

In order to make sure that something happened, he still informed the Qingyu Alliance and asked them to secretly protect He Zhizhang.

On the one hand, it is to protect He Zhizhang's safety, and on the other hand, it is also to see what He Zhizhang has mastered.

But he didn't want the thieves to be really bold and recklessly attack and kill He Zhizhang in this blue sky and white day.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded in the streets!

Pei Min rarely galloped on the street, and what was bulging in his arms was the "Analects" that he didn't have time to put down, so in order not to interfere with the horseback riding, he stuffed it into his arms indiscriminately.

galloped all the way to the Rende Medical Center, Pei Min flew directly and dismounted, and Simba ignored it and strode into the medical hall.

Sitting in the hall is Liu Shenwei's great-grandson Luo Jing, who has always been sitting in the Rende Medical Center is Sun Simiao's descendant Sun Pu, but now Sun Pu has settled in Guzang, opened a Rende Medical Center in Guzang, and studied Miao medicine with Lilao.

Now Chang'an Rende Medical Center is managed by Luo Jing, and Liu Shenwei will only take action when his life is at stake for a truly incurable disease.

Seeing Pei Min come in, Luo Jing hurriedly got up to greet him: "King of the county, He Shangshu is in the side courtyard, and the ancestor is healing him." ”

Pei Min nodded and strode towards the side courtyard.

He has come to this Rende Pharmacy many times, and it is as familiar as his own home.

In the side courtyard, Wu Yuan was anxiously waiting outside, and Liu Shenwei was treating He Zhizhang in the house.

Pei ...... The king of the county ...... "Wu Yuan was a little ashamed.

He was ordered to secretly protect He Zhizhang, but he still made He Zhizhang's life and death unknown.

"Doctor Liu hasn't come out yet?"

Pei Min didn't blame Wu Yuan, when his manpower was exhausted, he believed that Wu Yuan did his best.

It is the people behind the scenes who really need to bear the anger.

……

Chang'an Jingzhao Mansion!

The current Jingzhao Mansion Yin is Yan Tingzhi.

Yan Tingzhi is a great character, a young man who is studious. In the first year of Shenlong, he was promoted to the rank of Jinshi and promoted to the department, which was the new champion of the Wu Zetian period.

In his early years, Yao Chong was the history of Changzhou Thorn, and he saw that Yan Tingzhi's physique was high, elegant and dry, and his deep tools were different.

Yao Chong was promoted to the prime minister of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, and Yan Tingzhi was promoted to the right legacy. In the middle of the Kaiyuan Dynasty, he was in charge of the tribute and won unanimous praise. also weighed heavily for Song Jing and entered Jingzhao Mansion.

The predecessor of Jingzhao Mansion was Bae Min's friend Fan Yu.

After his abdication, Yan Tingzhi succeeded him and was responsible for the public security and civil affairs of the 22 counties around Gyeonggi.

Yan Tingzhi has an elegant and delicate temperament, is conscientious and responsible for officials, and is highly praised for his conscientious work in his position.

On this day, Yan Tingzhi was on the board of directors of the government.

As the civil governor of the Sanfu Land, Yan Tingzhi is not like other officials, who need to be a member of the court.

His task is to work in Jingzhao Mansion, and he is not subject to the constraints of various ministries, and can even be sentenced to death in court, which has great power.

This is also in line with the status of the county order of the capital of other countries.

Recently, Yan Tingzhi has been quite idle, and there are not many headache cases.

The Yang family, which turned out to be the only headache for him, also stopped.

Although Yan Tingzhi does not participate in court politics, his status is particularly special, and he is still a little well-informed, knowing that it is because of Pei Min.

Pei Min said that Li Longji was moved, and returned to the Wei family's house, suppressing the arrogance of the Wei family.

Every time I read this, Yan Ting's heart felt comfortable.

It is no longer a day or two for the Yang family to commit crimes.

The officials were bullied, and they were afraid that the Yang family would be favored, so they did not dare to speak out.

The people were bullied, and they swallowed their anger and did not dare to sue the officials.

Those who sue the official individually will eventually be forced to withdraw the complaint.

Yan Tingzhi has the heart to maintain, but he is also powerless, his ability is limited, he secretly hates in his heart, and he is helpless.

Even if Yan Tingzhi has no contact with Pei Min, just by virtue of this, he has already made his heart respectful, and thought with a little comfort: "Find a chance to get acquainted with the king of the county, I have been an official in Chang'an for many years, if I don't even know the king of the county, it will inevitably make people laugh when I say it." ”

Just as he was enjoying his comfort, bad news came.

"Yan Jingzhao, it's not good! There was an accident in Xinghuafang, someone was attacked on the street, and several people died! ”

Yan Tingzhi Huo Ran got up, at the feet of the Son of Heaven in Chang'an, there is a large population, and some quarrels are inevitable, but there are very few things that cause human life.

How many people died?

"What's the situation? Quick, let Jingzhao Shaoyin go to the scene of the crime quickly, and report the details of the investigation to me when I come back. ”

Although Yan Tingzhi attaches great importance to this matter, he does not feel the need to go out on his own.

Before the messenger finished speaking, Jingzhao Shaoyin had already strode in and said: "Fu Yin, the big thing is not good, Xinghuafang was attacked by He Zhizhang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, he was frightened and fell from his horse, and his life and death are unknown. ”

Yan Tingzhi blinked his eyes, Huo Ran got up, and immediately said: "Close Xinghua Fang, as well as the surrounding Yankang Fang and Fengle Fang, all of them are closed, and we will investigate suspicious people door to door." Regardless of who the residents are, they must be investigated. ”

He took two steps back and forth with his hands in his hand, and said: "In addition, immediately control the whole city, order all the Wuhou Fang Ding officials in Chang'an, cancel all holidays, deploy the whole city, and record all the faces of each square and city in the half moon of Chang'an." Even if you look for a needle in a haystack, you have to find a suspicious person. ”

"Zong Shaoyin, you go to the scene with me......"

With almost no hesitation, he blurted out one command after another.

He Zhizhang is a member of the three grades of the imperial court, and it is a big deal to find a big court to be attacked by the public.

What's more, He Zhizhang also has an identity, he is the only elder brother of Pei Min, the only one with a different surname in the dynasty.

Who in the world doesn't know the year-old friends of He Zhizhang, Zhang Xu and Pei Min.

The people in Shilin even called them the three gentlemen in drinking.

Now that He Zhizhang is attacked, I don't know if he lives or dies, how will Pei Min react?

Yan Tingzhi didn't dare to think about it, but he knew very well that if he did nothing in this matter, he was afraid that he would harm the pond fish.

**********

Criminal Department!

The secretary of the criminal department is Pei Dunfu.

Pei Dunfu this person is Shanxi Wenxiren, it is obvious that he is a member of the Pei family, quite strategic, Shanxi Wenxiren Kaiyuan ten years, the edict "worthy of the general" section, he was the first person to ascend, since then the official fortune has been prosperous.

However, Pei Dunfu is not a good official, although he has no evil deeds, he is a calf protector.

Years ago, he was still a waiter in the Criminal Department, and his subordinates Cheng Zangyao and Lang General Cao Jian relied on power and acted recklessly, violating the criminal law. Pei Kuan, the head of the household department and the imperial historian, arrested the two, and Pei Dun asked someone to intercede, but Pei Kuan did not comply.

Pei Dunfu generously took out 1,000 taels of gold, ordered his son-in-law to bribe Concubine Yang, framed Pei Kuan, and made Pei Kuan demoted to Suiyang Taishou.

Pei Dunfu also got Yang Jieyu's favor because of his generosity, blew the pillow wind a few times, and got the position of Shangshu of the Criminal Department.

As the minister in charge of the country's judiciary and criminal prisons, Shangshu of the Criminal Department is obviously a higher level and has more power than the Jingzhao Mansion.

In the small half an hour after Jingzhao Mansion heard the news, the Criminal Department also got the news of He Zhizhang's attack.

"What, He Zhizhang? Which He Zhizhang? Is it He Zhizhang that King Pei Jun thought was his brother? ”

After getting the confirmation, Pei Dunfu's face changed instantly.

In the Tang Dynasty, the real power of the Criminal Department was not large, and it was basically limited to civilians and officials below the seventh rank.

But they are the enforcement agency among them, and as long as it is a case, it will be handled from the criminal department.

In such a big case as the attack on He Zhizhang, how could the Criminal Department stay out of the matter?

This big case, if it is not handled well, after all, he will be held accountable by Pei Min, and his criminal department secretary will also come to an end.

It's only been a short time since he took the throne, where is Pei Dunfu willing?

"Quick, immediately send someone to Jingzhao Mansion, no, I will go to Jingzhao Mansion in person, call the servant of the Criminal Department to me, go together, and cooperate with Jingzhao Mansion before the case is handed over to Dali Temple......"

At the same time, the Imperial Observatory also got the news!

The functions and powers of the Imperial Historical Observatory are somewhat special, they are the central administrative supervision organs and the central judicial organs, but they are not responsible for criminal proceedings, and their main tasks are to be responsible for picketing, impeaching officials, and enforcing discipline.

They target officials, and generally speaking, they have nothing to do with criminal cases.

However, the imperial historian Cui Yinfu did not dare to be careless.

What kind of character He Zhizhang is, everyone knows that he is the most dashing group of people in Chang'an in the world.

Drink and have fun, free and casual, and have a big heart, never make enemies with others.

A person like him can't have any enemies in private, even if he doesn't intend to offend someone, he won't make trouble to the point of life and death.

It is possible to have undying grudges in officialdom.

In case this matter is a vendetta caused by a grudge in the temple, and their Yushitai is unaware.

Investigated and investigated, he, the imperial historian, could not escape the blame.

Only one He Zhizhang will indeed not make such a big fuss, but He Zhizhang's attack will definitely anger Pei Min.

Once Pei Min goes crazy, how can he stay out of it?

"Send someone to inform Jing Zhaoyin that we, the Imperial Tower, support their actions. If the case involves an official, report it immediately...... There is also the need for the imperial history to follow the case, anytime, anywhere, to come forward to help. ”

In the Tang Dynasty, the highest penal institution was undoubtedly the Dali Temple.

In the Qin and Han dynasties, the predecessor of Dali Temple, Tingwei was the main prisoner and reviewed serious cases in various prisons.

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the scope of reference of Dali Temple was wider.

Especially in Dali Temple, there are two criminal law wizards, Di Renjie and Xu Yougong.

Di Renjie judged the case like a god, and it took a year to clear all the backlog of cases, and there were as many as 17,000 people involved, and there was not a single one who cried out for injustice afterwards. The quantity and quality were so good that they were rumored to be good stories at the time.

Xu Yougong has served in the judiciary for 15 years, and has handled more than 700 major cases and saved tens of thousands of people. He neither sought his own interests, nor was he swayed by the monarch's selfish desires, and repeatedly contradicted Wu Zetian in order to seek justice, dismissed Wu Zetian twice, and gave him death three times.

With their contributions, the prestige of Dali Temple is unparalleled for a while, far surpassing the Imperial Historical Platform and the Criminal Department, and the power in their hands is naturally the largest among the three justices.

Today's Dali Temple is called Wei Jiansu.

Wei Jiansu is a capable minister, born in Jingzhao Wei's Nanpi Mansion, when he was young, he was admitted to the Jinshi, awarded the Prime Minister's Mansion to join the army, and later successively served as Wei Zuo, Henan Mansion Cangcao, Dali Temple Cheng, Fangzhou Sima, Treasury Department Wailang, the right division of the military department of the second member, the left division of the military department Erlangzhong, the counselor, and the father of the Pengcheng County Duke.

To this day, Dali Temple.

Wei Jiansu's rise is inseparable from the shadow of his father Wei Miao, but he also relied on his own ability to step into today's position.

Compared with the leisure of the Yushitai, the Criminal Department, and the Jingzhao Mansion, Wei Jiansu is much busier.

After all, Dali Temple is in charge of the trial of criminal and prison cases, and reviews serious criminal and prison cases in various places.

Not only Chang'an, the capital division, but all major cases in the world are responsible for Dali Temple.

These days, Wei Jiansu is dealing with a brutal and inhumane case of extermination, and he is very busy.

This suddenly got He Zhizhang attacked on the street, Wei Jiansu couldn't help it, his body shook, and he held his forehead with his hand with a little sadness, and said helplessly: "Who did Wei offend, so guilty?" ”

He patted his face helplessly, paused and said, "The case of destroying the door has been fruitless for many years, so it will be put on hold for the time being." Dare to attack and kill the ministers of the court, it is simply lawless. Immediately notify Jingzhao Mansion and hand over the case to Dali Temple. ”

In this kind of big case, Dali Temple is duty-bound.

Xu Qiao, the secretary of Dali Temple, couldn't help but say: "It was the brother of King Pei Jun who was attacked, and when this matter is taken care of, isn't it up to us Dali Temple to take the blame?" ”

Wei Jiansu sighed: "This kind of case, even if we don't take it, disaster will come from heaven." That being the case, it's better to be happy, but our Dali Temple is not happy, Jingzhao Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai don't want to be happy! Your Majesty, let Jingzhao Mansion, the Criminal Department, and the Yushitai assist our Dali Temple in handling this case! ”

Pei Min's anger has not yet poured out, because of his connections, the entire Gyeonggi judicial department is the first to hear about it.
