The Yamen of the Criminal Department is the farthest from the palace, and the ancients were afraid of the ominous atmosphere of the Criminal Department, which would damage the feng shui, so they separated the Criminal Department far away. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this also made Lu Chengqi suffer, he never relied on animal power or a sedan chair to travel, he walked on his legs, and walked for a long time before he could see the plaque of the Criminal Department.

Compared with the busy traffic of several other yamen, the yamen of the criminal department seems to be much more deserted. When he was in middle school history class, he specially found the information of the pig, and he had a special good impression of this divine beast that can distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, and loyalty and treachery.

Originally, the Criminal Department was also a yamen full of oil and water, and the so-called yamen was open, and there was no reason to come in if there was no money, which is what I was talking about. But since Zhou Yanhua took office, the wind of integrity has been swept away, and who dares to stretch out his hand in the yamen of the Criminal Department? Coupled with the Supervision Department created by Lu Chengqi, maybe you will receive the money tonight, and you will be imprisoned tomorrow.

Wang Yanchen was slightly relieved when he saw the yamen of the Criminal Department. The assassination that night made him embarrassed, and now he is a little nervous. After strengthening the strength of the guards, Wang Yanchen calmed down a little.

Lu Chengqi took the lead and walked into the yamen of the Criminal Department, but when he saw Zhou Yanhua doing something, he didn't bother and observed from the sidelines. Here I want to talk about the criminal department of the Great Shun Dynasty, which is different from the functions of the criminal department in history.

Historically, the criminal department was in charge of the same criminal law as the Dali Temple, and the criminal department tried ordinary criminal proceedings, and the Dali Temple tried major cases. But Lu Yun, the founding prince of the Dashun Dynasty, believed that the functions of the Criminal Department were too small to reflect the prestige of the Department, so he transferred the functions to the Criminal Department, which tried major cases, and had the ability to review all the cases handled by the Dali Temple and be responsible to the emperor. Dali Temple hears general litigation, including civil cases and criminal cases. Dali Temple has the power, according to the inadequacy of the criminal law, to propose amendments to the law, while the criminal department has no power. In this way, the judicial power is dispersed, and the legislative power belongs to Dali Temple, which increases the authority of Dali Temple; The Supreme Court is the Criminal Department, which examines cases large and small in the world, and as long as the emperor thinks that the case is inappropriate and needs to be rehandled, the Criminal Department will review it. This is also the limitation of the feudal era, even if the system is good, there are constraints.

The reason why the criminal department had enough oil and water in the past was because as long as the criminal department secretary blew the wind in front of the emperor, he could prompt a case to be retried, and the chief officer of the retrial happened to be the criminal department secretary. As long as there are enough dots, where are there still cases that can't be turned over?

When Lu Chengqi was thinking about whether this system was reasonable, Zhou Yanhua finally finished his work and came to greet him: "The minister doesn't know that His Majesty is here in person, and he has missed the welcome, so I hope Your Majesty will forgive me." ”

Lu Chengqi said with a smile: "The national ruler is serious. Guozhang puts work first, and it's too late for me to be happy, where will I blame you. I don't know what the prince is busy with? ”

Zhou Yanhua said with a straight face: "Your Majesty, the minister has just been investigating the old cases, and found that there are many wrong cases and unjust cases, and I hope that Your Majesty will restart the trial to return the world's grievances and innocence." ”

Lu Chengqi nodded, did not say anything, but said: "How does the national abbot know that it is a grievance case?" ”

Zhou Yanhua was stunned for a moment, picked up a case with the seal of Dali Temple, pointed to the place circled with a red pen, and said: "This case is a case of murdering my husband." This case is full of suspicions, how did Chen Li's petite woman kill her seven-foot-tall husband? The murder weapon used was actually a hairpin, which is really incomprehensible. What's more, there are no witnesses, only physical evidence. The complainant was her uncle, and after the case was closed, 50 acres of fertile land belonging to Chen Li's family belonged to her uncle, but Chen Li was imprisoned and died in prison soon after. Leaving a pair of children and daughters, abused by their uncles all day long, what is the reason for this? ”

When Lu Chengqi heard this, he was also indignant and said: "There is such a wicked person in the world, and heaven cannot tolerate it!" But there is no basis for what you say, and you need evidence to overturn the case, otherwise you can't block the mouths of the world. I have a law to let the Supervision Department visit the people and collect evidence so that the Criminal Department can overturn the case, what does the national ruler think? ”

Zhou Yanhua, who is only forty and five, is in the prime of life, and he still wants to make a career, where does he not know what Lu Chengqi means? In fact, it is a small trick of the separation of powers, Dali Temple has legislative power, the Supervision Department has the power to arrest, and the Criminal Department has the power to review, and the three departments are under different jurisdictions, which can naturally reduce unjust, false and wrongly decided cases to a minimum. If there is still someone who can buy the three departments, then Lu Chengqi has nothing to say, he can only say that this person's means are too powerful.

Zhou Yanhua doesn't care about the size of the power in his hands, this person has noble manners, in order to leave a good name behind him. This kind of person actually wants more, but Lu Chengqi is happy to help him shape Bao Qingtian in this different time and space.

The two worked together again and plugged many loopholes, and Lu Chengqi returned to the palace and wrote the holy decree overnight. He didn't expect that the Supervision Department would become even bigger because of this, and he faintly had the intention of becoming the second Jinyiwei.

However, Lu Chengqi is still very cautious, restricting the supervision department's power to arrest, and they have the right to take people only if the criminal department issues a certificate or Lu Chengqi orders it. Otherwise, the Supervision Department will be like a tiger released from a cage, biting people everywhere.

Lu Chengqi knows that power is good, but if you want to be locked in a cage and run wild, it will only endanger the people. The people were forced to be miserable, so they had to rise up and resist. In fact, the Chinese people are the kindest, as long as there is a bowl of rice, they will not rebel. If you look at all the uprisings in history, which one of the major uprisings was not in the background of the anger of the imperial court and the desperate people?

In the face of filling the stomach, any benevolence, righteousness and morality are all in the mirror, and they are vulnerable. As the saying goes, "the husband and the king are also boats; The water is also the one who is a servant; The water carries the boat; The water will capsize the boat", and the boat without water will not be able to run no matter how fast it is.

Lu Chengqi knows this truth, and what he has to do now is to work hard to reduce unjust, false and wrongly decided cases and calm down public anger. And his bigger plan is to suppress the annexation of land, which is a big matter that affects the whole body, and he does not dare to act rashly. Only by slowly arranging the strength and slowly drawing it up, when it comes to a certain time, will it be difficult in one fell swoop.

Most of China's dynasties perished as a result of land annexation. The Zhou Dynasty collapsed, the late Han dynasty annexed land, and the Song Dynasty was also full of corrupt officials, and the greedy money was converted into land. Not to mention the Ming Dynasty, the peasants of the world were desperate and wandering everywhere; In fact, the same was true at the end of the Qing Dynasty, even if there was no foreign interference, the Qing government would not last long.

Land and grain are the foundation of people's livelihood, if you want not to destroy the dynasty and the country, the only way is to restrain mergers and introduce money to more reasonable places. Lu Chengqi thought about it, only business can have such great energy.

The world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit. Marx also said: "If there is 100% profit, the capitalists will take risks; If there is a 200% profit, the capitalists will flout the law; If there is a 300% profit, then the capitalists will trample everything in the world! It's naked, but it's also realistic, and it's a portrayal of business. If capitalism had been inspired, would the Great Shun Dynasty repeat the mistakes of the past and become one of the many dynasties that perished? Lu Chengqi thought about it for a long time, for a long time......
