Chapter 1117 Marriage to the Sixth Wife
The deeds of the final register are added to the official
Welcome the concubine to the capital
By this time, the case in Chaozhou was not over.
The examiner Zhou Renyu, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, accepted a bribe of 20,000 yuan, and the answer was sent to Ding's hands.
It can be seen that no matter what era it is, you can't do anything that violates the law and discipline, and you can't get lucky. It's not yours, what you get by deception, you will lose it in the end, and you will lose even more.
After the investigation of the case, all those involved in the commission of the crime were severely punished. Examiners who violate the law will be removed from the list and will not be allowed to re-enter the official register. Zhou Renyu and Tang Sizong were escorted to Lianzhou, Guangnan, and Zhuzhou, Hunan, for five years. Li Hongjia and four other examiners and scribes, Wang Silu, were detained 500 miles away, and returned to their hometowns for the people five years later.
Four service and guard personnel have 60 canes and are in charge 300 miles away.
All cheating lifters and jinshi will have their fame stripped of their fame, and they will not be allowed to take the test again within ten years.
The highlight of this treatment is the punishment of bribe-givers. When Han Yanxuan discussed in the main hall, he said:
It is hateful for these officials to be greedy for profit and ignore the law of the country, but some rich people are not a good thing, if they don't use a lot of money as bait, how can they make the good imperial examination a miasma, if they don't buy it, how can they sell it, just like a bad guy who wants to climb into the yard to steal something, you sent him a ladder, didn't the person who sent the ladder help to abuse? Don't you just have two stinky money, and you think you can use it as a stepping stone to do things that ordinary people can't do. Okay, I'll call you, both people and money are empty, and you will be beaten and punished.
This statement was approved by most of the officials present. This is called cocooning oneself and lifting a stone to one's own feet.
Based on this, eight bribe-takers were punished: Ding Renli's father was particularly heinous in bribing from the state to the capital, and in addition to being fined, he was sent to 300 li away and detained for three years; The remaining seven companies, regardless of who came forward to pay bribes, were given 100 canes and fined three times the amount of bribes.
Hearing this, Emperor Zhao Kuo also applauded.
Autumn is strong, and the dream comes true.
The imperial court once again issued an edict for Han Yanxuan: to increase the official Taifu, and to record his deeds in the history museum. That is to say, Han Yanxuan made great contributions to the major events of the canonization of the emperor, and no one can compare with him, and the historians recorded this credit in the annals of history and passed it on to future generations.
At this point, Han Yanxuan's position as the first important minister of the dynasty has been unshakable. This was in the first year of Jiatai (1201). All his official positions include Baoning Junjie Envoy, Kaifu Yitong Three Divisions, Pingyuan County King, and Taifu, but he still has not been actually sent.
Joyful and happy, the Han government decided to make a big show and marry the sixth lady Ma Yufang.
The scale of the Han government's affairs was unprecedented, and the princes and nobles, civil and military officials above the sixth rank in the court, local governors and county governors, supervisors and other officials were invited, and the relatives inside and outside the Han family all attended.
Chen Zhishan, as a matchmaker, sat in the host and guest position, and Wu Xi, Han Xianxuan, Han Yangzhou, Su Shicheng and Zhou Yunluan were responsible for Zhang Luo's coordination. The cooks of the main hotels in Lin'an City, the famous characters of the famous Goolan tile shop, and all the official prostitutes of the Le Ying were all invited into the Han Mansion to serve the happy events, and the halls of the Han Mansion and the South Park were used to receive guests. There are nearly 1,000 sergeants sent by the Infantry Division alone to maintain order and handle miscellaneous matters.
The greeting team is also quite large, wearing red and hanging green, blowing and playing for several miles, the bride Ma's maiden home is in the east of the city, the greeting route starts from Hanfu, goes north and then south, and then east to west, around the city. Liu Lan led his mother's family to greet him outside the door.
The wedding feast began the day before and lasted for four days. From morning to night, the people of Hanfu come and go, and the river is endless. Unemployed people and beggars can get a reward outside the house as long as they are cleaned and can say two happy words. As long as the flat-headed people are dressed neatly and take out a congratulatory gift, they can swagger and have a good meal on the flowing water seat in the west courtyard.
It can be said that in those days, the entire Han Mansion was making money every day, but it was spending money like water. From the princes and nobles to the common people of Li, everyone in Lin'an City was full of interest and tirelessly talked about the luxury and luxury of the concubines of the king of Hanjun. The expression is always endless envy and yearning.
On the sixth day after the wedding, Han Yanxuan thanked those people who were happy in the house. After you have eaten and drunk, you will retire from the idle people and say a few words to them.
I am very happy that none of the Chaozhou cases involved us this time, as long as everyone abides by the royal law and works diligently, I, Han, will have the confidence to do things.
This time, the scene is indeed a bit big. I was advised to be cautious in everything, not to be too extravagant, and not to be ostentatious. I know, it's for my good. But I don't want to be a righteous man with high morals, don't abide by those rules and precepts, and on weekdays, the bell rings and eats, the lights are bright, and I often sing and dance, stay up all night, and enjoy a blissful life. Acting flamboyantly, loving luxury, eating, drinking and having fun as you like, laid-back and happy, these are my characteristics. Another important reason for doing this is to reassure the royal family. You think, a high-ranking person doesn't like to eat, drink and have fun, and doesn't love money and beautiful women, so what is he going to do? Will people suspect that he has a bad heart for the emperor? ? Will that end be good?!
When Taizu was in power, he often said that the scourge of a wise military general was worse than that of a hundred money-hungry civil officials. During the reign of Gaozong, Yue Fei was strict in governing the army, could fight habitually, read books and recite poems, did not love money or women, had almost no shortcomings, and was in the prime of life, so it was natural to arouse the suspicion of the royal family.
Everyone nodded, and Liu Lan stood up and said: The king of the county is clever and far-reaching. The two things that have been done recently have been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the government and the opposition have received rave reviews.
Also, Han Yanxuan went on to tell you: I love money, it doesn't mean that I have to think of making money, my official position, title, and title are all high, and the court gave me a very high salary, plus there are tens of thousands of acres of land, in addition, Renyou and Qingyuan do maritime trade in Quanzhou, these add up, enough for the whole family, therefore, I don't have to make money from the state, and you don't have to take the country's money or collect other people's money on my behalf.
Except for Master Chen, a few of you are recommended by me, don't reach out to get the country's money, do more things that are useful to the country. Don't let people say that my Han Yanxuan's subordinates are all a group of wine bags and rice bags that only eat but don't dry, or corrupt officials who recognize money but not people.
Everyone agreed, and Chen Zhishan also bowed down and said:
"The king of the county is as kind to Chen as a mountain, like a reborn parent, this teaching, Chen must be engraved in his heart."
When he said this, Han Yanxuan was a little embarrassed, and waved his hand again and again. Master Chen, it doesn't have to be this way.
