The greatest respect of the king of a country for officials is to attend his funeral, in the Great Song Dynasty only the crown prince and Fu Wang Dan enjoyed this honor, but today Weizhen County Li Derun also got this honor, early in the morning the people gathered outside the county town to wait.

The official family actually attended the funeral in person for Li Derun, the county governor of Liupin!

This made many people who were originally dissatisfied with the imperial court shut up, and all the local officials from the road level and the provincial government level rushed over, even Zhou Qi and the officials who framed Li Derun did not dare to make an exception.

The eyes of the people looking at them were full of happiness, these culprits who killed Li Qingtian were about to be punished by the officials, and the people sent by the imperial court conveyed the news that the officials came to Li Derun's funeral and also said that His Majesty would strictly investigate Li Derun's case, which made the people see hope.

In any era, the common people have not seen the good people suffer hardships and the bad people go free.

Zhao Zhen sat in the carriage, most of the officials of the imperial court still stayed in Tokyo City, and he only brought some veterans of criminal names to come, in order to explain the investigation of the case to the people and the people of the world.

Sancai picked up the teapot in the stable carriage and refilled the tea in Zhao Zhen's teacup, the emperor's carriage was wide and stable, and the tea did not spill much, Zhao Zhen took it and moistened his throat and said: "Let Bao Zheng come to see the driver." ”

Bao Zheng is now a famous Qingtian, when the prison army was as bright as a mirror, and then the right to know that Kaifeng Mansion was even more orderly, and the case was judged, which also made many people from other places come to complain, and Bao Zheng did not refuse...... provoked the dissatisfaction of the state officials in other places, and went up and played with him several times.

But Zhao Zhen's imperial approval is very simple: "You can judge the case fairly and distinguish right from wrong, why should the people rush to Tokyo City to find Bao Xiren to administer justice?" ”

The officials who had been involved in the performance were silent for a while and never played again, but soon after they asked the imperial court to send Bao Zheng's capable torture seat to help, and Zhao Zhen agreed with a stroke of his pen, knowing his shortcomings and speaking out is not a bad thing.

Since the Kaifeng Mansion was divided into three ya, a large number of criminal names have appeared, and they have even been awarded grades, which is a rare thing.

Zhao Zhen is encouraging them to study hard, from ancient times to the present, criminal names have been a very important subject, but this so-called "trivial matter" has been ignored by the emperors of previous dynasties, how can Zhao Zhen slack off?

The carriage is still advancing, but the speed has become fast and steady, not because of how skilled the coachman is, but after entering the territory of Weizhen County, the original dirt road was replaced by a smooth cement road, which was built by Li Derun and the people.

Although Weizhen County is under the rule of Maozhou, it is only a short hundred miles away from Yingtianfu, and with this cement road, the speed can be faster, Zhao Zhen sat in the car and sighed that a good official died in vain.

Local officials can independently raise money from local large households to lead the people to build roads without official documents from the imperial court, which is not uncommon in the Great Song Dynasty, but Li Derun is not involved in personal interests, not for political achievements, not for fame, but just to make the people live a better life.

Zhao Zhen had already looked through Li Derun's official records along the way, and knew his every move well, when he reported the state official to himself, Zhao Zhen planned to promote him, but he refused.

A sentence "If you are in your position because of the lawlessness of your colleagues, how can you be an official, do things, and be a man?" Zhao Zhen still remembers it vividly.

Zhao Zhen believes that he is a good official who does not lose to Hai Bijia, Hai Rui is not even comparable to him, and Li Derun is not as frugal as Hai Rui and makes his family suffer.

On the contrary, he took good care of his family, Li Derun has six or seven brothers and sisters in his family, such a family is not small, he often helps relatives and friends, treats his wife well, supports his parents, and does not let anyone suffer, which is the most rare.

Zhao Zhen sees people in many ways, because he believes in dialectics, no one is perfect, but he can hardly find any shortcomings in Li Derun, if you insist on saying shortcomings, it is that he has just passed the fragile temper and is too harsh on himself.

But isn't that his merit?

The people were happy to see it, the scholars were respectful when they saw it, and the lawbreakers were afraid to see it, Zhao Zhen could see it from the people who came to greet the emperor not far away, almost all of them were wearing linen and filial piety, and the expressions on their faces were mostly painful.

Bao Zheng stood under the emperor's car, Zhao Zhen let him get on the car, riding with Jun is a very honorable thing, Bao Zheng thought about it or got on the car, Zhao Zhen pointed to the stool fixed on the ground in the carriage and said: "I'm about to go to Weizhen County, I passed you here to ask, how do you plan to handle the case?" ”

Bao Zheng bowed and said: "Your Majesty, Li Derun's official Zhichen has already seen it, and he only needs to visit the entire territory of Weizhen County to find out whether he is doing things for the people and the court, but the minister feels that it is a little redundant, and the people of Changting should be able to explain that Li Derun has benefited one party as an official." ”

Zhao Zhen nodded and said: "Yes, it is far beyond my expectation that the people love Li Derun so much, no matter how old or young, no matter rich or rich, no matter whether they are close or close, explain that they wear linen and wear filial piety, which shows Li Derun's character and official character." I want you to check Zhou Qi and others, are you sure? ”

Bao Zheng said confidently: "The ministers are sure, they have no possibility of getting rid of their crimes!" ”

The law of the country was formulated by Zhao Zhen, so he must also abide by the rules of the game, and must be convicted with evidence, otherwise he cannot kill Zhou Qi and others with the emperor's golden words, although Zhao Zhen has cut these people many times in his heart......

Once the law is to be established, it can be difficult to overthrow, Zhao Zhen just wants to use the Li De** incident to show the people of the world that the Great Song Dynasty severely punished corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and at the same time tell the people of the world that the law of the Great Song Dynasty cannot be easily changed even if it is the emperor.

This is to lay the foundation for future emperors, put a small shackle on the imperial power, and form the law of the ancestors, and future generations should not use the imperial power too much.

How could Bao Zheng not see Zhao Zhen's intentions?

"Your Majesty leads by example, and the kings of future generations will abide by it!"

Zhao Zhen smiled and didn't speak, the continuation of the feudal dynasty has a beginning and an end, Zhao Zhen doesn't believe that the Great Song Dynasty can last forever, but as long as the fire of Chinese civilization is continued, this is enough, all he can do is to run the Great Song Dynasty better when he is alive, and try to continue the national glory of the Great Song Dynasty.

The horses arrived at the long pavilion with brisk steps, as if they did not need the command of the coachman, the horses slowly slowed down and stopped, they were accustomed to the scene of crowds, and whoever let them master was the ruler of the Great Song Dynasty.

Bao Zheng jumped out of the carriage in a hurry before the carriage stopped, he didn't want to be seen by others riding with the official family, this is not the treatment he can enjoy now, it is not good for people to misunderstand, Zhao Zhen shook his head slightly in the carriage, the persistence and pride in the heart of the doctor are really hard to understand.

The emperor personally arrived in Weizhen County, and the people were of course excited, but the emperor came to attend Li Qingtian's funeral, and the people were even more grateful.
