Chapter 172 Prison Litigation

To put it mildly, Zhao Yu is now a dead pig and is not afraid of boiling water. I don't care about the negative impact of recruiting Zhou Zhan.

"Since he was relegated to Lingnan, it should be easy to recruit him, right?" Zhao Yu said confidently.

Qian Yanyuan shook his head and said, "Definitely, this was a few years ago. When Mr. Wen Yuan arrived in the Qianzhou area, the phenomenon of human trafficking was very rampant, and there were often tooth people from Jianghuai who abducted young people and young girls in Qianzhou, and sold them outside the mountains to be slaves for large families. When Mr. Wen Yuan learned of this phenomenon, he immediately ordered a ban on human trafficking, and anyone who violated the order was punished by being sent to the army. In addition, Mr. Wen Yuan also tried every means to search and arrest the tooth people, and through open and covert investigations, he successively found and rescued more than 2,600 people who had been abducted and trafficked. Mr. Wen Yuan first gathered the abducted people in the Zhizhou Yamen, gave them food, and then asked them one by one about their origins and hometown addresses, paid them travel expenses, and sent them home to reunite with their families. ”

Zhao Yu couldn't help nodding secretly in his heart, Zhou Zhan is not trivial! The abduction and trafficking of more than 2,600 people naturally cannot be done by ordinary tooth people, I am afraid that there are many big people behind this!

In this way, Zhou Zhan was able to do so well. Even Zhao Yu, who already knew something about his ability, couldn't help but smack his tongue again.

Qian Yanyuan continued: "It's just that the folk customs in Qianzhou have just improved, and the imperial court issued a holy decree to transfer Mr. Wen Yuan from Qianzhou to Guangnan East Road to serve as a prisoner (to control the judicial and prison power of the road), so that the slave trade in Qianzhou has revived. Soon after his arrival, Mr. Wen Yuan was transferred to Jingxi Road as the judge of salt and iron because of his outstanding governance, and founded the 'Kantong Law' during his tenure. However, it seems that he offended someone again, and he should have been transferred to the imperial court, but he was impeached and transferred to Jiangxi Road as a transfer envoy. ”

Zhao Yu couldn't help but smile a little bitterly in his heart, this Zhou Zhan is too capable of offending people! The political achievements are remarkable, but in the end, it still did not end well, but he just served as a transfer envoy on Jiangxi Road!

Zhao Yu's heart moved, and he asked, "How old is Mr. Wen Yuan?" ”

Qian Yanyuan thought for a while and said, "I don't know. However, Mr. Wen Yuan entered the Jiake Jinshi in the third year of Tianxi during the first emperor's time, and it has been nearly fifteen years. I don't think Mr. Wenyuan is too young to go there, maybe about fifty! ”

Thinking about it carefully, Zhao Yu couldn't help but secretly admire Zhou Zhan's career, although the starting point of Jinshi is relatively high, but no matter how high it is, basically there are always one or two hundred Jinshi every three years. And Zhou Zhan was promoted from a county-level official to a provincial leader in just 15 years. And even in the case of offending I don't know how many people!

According to the modern official system, the official Zhou Zhan just started serving as an official is equivalent to a member of the Standing Committee of the county party committee, roughly equivalent to the deputy department. And now the transfer is equivalent to the secretary of the provincial party committee and equivalent to the provincial level. From the deputy department to the provincial army, there are four checkpoints: the main department, the deputy department, the main hall, and the vice province.

The more he learned about Zhou Zhan's situation, the more Zhao Yu couldn't help but want to recruit this person. It's just that Zhou Zhan's official position has become the most difficult hurdle to recruit Zhou Zhan, and Zhou Zhan is a transfer envoy. Although in terms of power, it is weaker than Zhao Yu's pacification envoy. According to the official position, Zhao Yu's King of Changsha is enough to crush Zhou Zhan, the problem is that the positions of the two are almost equal, even if Zhou Zhan forces Zhao Zhan to be poor, he will not be able to go there.

Is it easy to get an equal person under you?

Sighing, Zhao Yu said with regret: "It seems that it can only be replaced temporarily by Zhou Wenyuan's son!" ”

Gongsun Xuanxu opened his mouth at this time and comforted: "The prince doesn't have to be like this, how can Zhou (Qin) Siming also be the son of Mr. Wuya, you can make people go to Mr. Wuya and ask several of his powerful subordinates to help!" ”

Zhao Yu thought about it carefully, too! Accept it now.

At the moment, Zhao Yu sent someone to pass on Zhou Qin, Zhou Qin twenty-two and three Xu, although he was a magistrate in Shouguang County, but in fact he was not born in the formal imperial examination. The reason why he can be a pusher is because of his father Zhou Zhan and Zhou Wenyuan!

Of course, it's not that Zhou Zhan used any improper means, there is a Yin official in this era. The wife and shadow in the idiom are talking about this. Daddy made a contribution, it's too big. The emperor is unwilling to give all the credit to his father, otherwise you will be promoted so quickly, how can I promote you in the future?

It's just that this credit can't be suppressed, but the wisdom of the ancients cannot be underestimated. If you can't press it, then divide it! Give it to your wife, that's what kind of lady is the fate. The son is in the shade, and according to different levels and merits, the treatment he gets is naturally different.

Although Zhou Qin relied on his father's shadow to make up for the official, I have to say that Zhou Qin does have the taste of his father Zhou Zhan. I don't talk much, but I get to the point, and the only thing that is not good is that my experience is not enough. After all, Zhou Qin is only twenty-two or three now! The matter of prison litigation is very experience-oriented, of course, it is not excluded that there are geniuses, but at least Zhao Yu can definitely not include Zhou Qin.

Just thinking about it, Zhao Yu still appointed Zhou Qin as his subordinate official to serve as a prison errand for the newly appointed Jingdong East Road pacification envoy. Zhou Qin's promoter will naturally not go, but this position has also become a fictitious position.

Zhou Qin has no opinion on this, because his father has offended a lot of people, and he is a magistrate in Shouguang County, but he is actually not very happy. It is not daring to suppress it openly, after all, Zhou Zhan is still a transfer envoy and a local dignitary, but those small knocks in the dark have never been extinct.

At that time, Chen Fangzhike, who was in charge of prison affairs on Jingdong East Road, was furious, because there was no post of prison lawyer, and the subordinate officials of the general pacification envoy and the transfer envoy were in charge of the writing, inspection, official affairs, escort affairs, salt affairs, and account divisions. All of them have one thing in common, that is, they are all civil!

This is also the institutional setting of the Song Dynasty, so that all levels can restrain each other, so that others can easily rebel. Although Chen Fangzhi, who mentions prison affairs, is one level lower than Zhao Yu, he is actually more of a supervisor, and at the same time, he is responsible for the affairs of prison lawsuits.

This also became the first confrontation between Zhao Yu and the local faction on Jingdong East Road.

Although it is a crisis, it also comes with an opportunity. If Zhao Yu can suppress Chen Fangzhi, then Zhao Yu will be much more relaxed in his administration on Jingdong East Road.

It's just that in this regard, will Lu Yijian be in a hurry, and he will also free up his hands to join forces with Chen Fangzhi to suppress Zhao Yu?
