Chapter 214: The Lobbyist

- Bao Zheng plays chess, he is disdainful of calculation, but he will not be calculated. His chess path to the beginning of the yang makes every game have to experience tragic battles, and even can kill only one bare-rod veteran, Lao Bao is addicted, and plays game after game.

Just as he was going down to the middle plate, he came in and said, "Master Wang is here." ”

"Yes, please." Bao Zheng put down the chess pieces in his hand and said to Chen Ke: "Wait for me to come back." With that, he turned to the front. His signing room was divided into two rooms, inside and outside, separated by a curtain in the middle, so that the outside could not see the inside, but the inside could see through the curtain cracks.

As for hearing the voices outside, it is not a problem. Chen Ke suddenly understood that Lao Bao said that he had no sleep tonight, but he was not referring to the interrogation, but to the lobbyist who came to the door...... It turns out that Lao Bao has to keep himself, and he needs a witness.

Then I'll witness it, Chen Ke stood behind the curtain and saw that he was facing Wang Su's face. Wang Su is fifty years old this year, the son of Wang Dan, the famous minister of the Zhenzong Dynasty, and the queen of an authentic famous family. Compared with him, no matter in terms of appearance and temperament, or clothing and behavior, Lao Bao is like a dirt bun.

Moreover, he is more than ten years old when he is Bao Zheng, but he is Bao Zheng's predecessor, and now he is a scholar of the Criminal Department of the Privy Council, which is two levels higher than Bao Zheng. The Manchu Dynasty can be more handsome and rich than him, I'm afraid that the only one is Han Xianggong......

After watching the tea, Wang Su chatted with Bao Zheng about the recent anecdotes in the court. The foreplay is too long, which is the vice of scholars.

But Bao Zheng prefers to insert it directly, and he pulled his messy beard and said: "My brother might as well say it directly, it's so nonsense, it makes people want to fart." ”

'Poof...... Wang Su almost didn't squirt out a sip of tea, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Brother, you can't be elegant." Yan Bi Zhengse said: "When I got off work, I heard that Kaifeng Mansion copied the mansion of Zhao Zonghan, the son of the king of Runan County, and this matter was not trivial, so I came over to ask what was going on." ”

"Yes." Bao Zheng nodded and said, "This is indeed the case." ”

"Something's wrong with this, isn't it?" Wang Su frowned slightly and said: "According to the rule, if you want to investigate the imperial relatives who can't be dealt with in the five suits, you must first report to the Zongzheng Temple and be handled by the Criminal Department." Kaifeng does not seem to have this authority. ”

"Oh, that's right." Bao Zheng smiled and said, "This government didn't know about it at first. At first, we were tracking down the remnants of the beggars. Shun Teng found it there, and only after serving it did he know that it was actually the mansion of Zhao Xiaowangye. ”

"But how did I hear that the two princes were before you broke down the door. Just arrived first? Wang Su sneered and glanced at him, and said in his heart: 'The old guy actually wants to be sloppy.'

"Yes." Bao Zheng nodded sincerely: "But there are exceptions to everything. At that time, my subordinates blocked more than 30 gangsters who had escaped from his house in the tunnel, and I had reason to suspect that they were gathering a crowd to rebel. If the old man is not mistaken. There seems to be such a clause in the "Song Criminal Union" - if it is a serious crime of homicide, rebellion, or rebellion that is being committed, it can be cut first and then played. ”

"This ......" Wang Su was speechless, and said for a long time: "Then did you play?" ”

"Tomorrow morning." Bao Zheng said lightly: "Isn't this an intensified trial?" ”

"Dude, this is too inappropriate, isn't it?!" Wang Su's brows tightened even more and said, "Searching the prince's mansion without approval, even if you are an expedient move." The case may be heard. You don't need to be expedient, right? "The normal procedure is that after the old bag completes the formalities, the suspect will be handed over to the criminal department for processing.

"Wrong. More expedient! Bao Zheng's eyes widened and said, "You don't know." I don't know if I don't search, I am shocked when I search! The weapons found in his cellar could arm four hundred soldiers. I found the roster and the map, and I doubted it. The thieves had other strongholds and had to be interrogated overnight. Clean it up as soon as possible, otherwise there will be a rebellion, and the first unlucky one is my old bag. ”…,

"......" Wang Su felt a greasy taste in his heart, where did he come from so many rebellions? Zhao Zonghan and his brother are about to become the prince, and at this time they rebelled and their heads were caught by the door? However, no one can rule out this possibility, and there is no way to stop Bao Zheng from talking about it.

But in the prison of Kaifeng Mansion, the initiative is in the hands of Bao Zheng, Wang Su had no choice but to follow him first and said: "It is the duty of the Criminal Department to try such cases. Brother, I brought my men down, you nodded, and the person was brought back. ”

According to the division of responsibilities of the imperial court, the Kaifeng Prefecture was responsible for civil affairs, taxation, and public security and prisons in the Gyeonggi region.

The Criminal Department is responsible for reviewing and approving various laws, reviewing criminal cases sent to the Ministry in various localities, hearing death penalty cases in prison in conjunction with Jiuqing, and directly hearing major cases in the Gyeonggi area.

Therefore, there is an overlap in the responsibilities of the two sides, and the imperial court has specifically clarified what is a major case, murder, ten evils, and cases with a particularly bad impact.

Obviously, according to Bao Zheng's statement, then Zhao Zonghan's case belongs to the ten evils, and it will naturally be under the jurisdiction of the Criminal Department.

Therefore, Wang Su is a person, reasonable and reasonable.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Having said that...... but seeing Lao Bao's hesitation, he said: "However, if it is handed over to the Criminal Department, it means that Kaifeng Mansion has determined that the little prince has gathered a crowd to rebel." If he was innocent, what a damage it would have done to his life! Let's do a preliminary trial and determine that the suspect is not too late to hand over. ”

Wang Su is about to be dizzy, why is it your reason to say it positively? But he inherited Wang Dan's genes, and he would never quarrel, not even accuse people in public. He could only snort angrily: "If he is wronged, our criminal department will wash him away!" ”

"Are you in a hurry?" Bao Zheng looked at him strangely and said, "Isn't it okay to mention someone tomorrow morning?" ”

"No way!" Wang Su's voice suddenly raised, and when he realized the gaffe, he lowered down again and said, "I have already brought someone here, and I will take it away now!" ”

"Why?!" Bao Zheng lowered his face.

"No, why ......" Wang Su's answer can make people angry: "Just because this is a rule." ”

"The imperial court stipulates that the yamen office is in and out." Bao Zheng's answer can make people angry again. He glanced at the hourglass and said, "Now for a moment, if there is anything wrong with my brother, come back tomorrow." ”

Wang Suxin said: 'I will go to court tomorrow, what am I doing when I come?' Then he sneered: "I see that the lights in your yamen are bright, and today it is clear that all employees are working overtime, how can there be any talk of getting off work?" ”

"It's time to get off work." Bao Zheng didn't blink his eyelids.

"You ......" Wang Su was completely fucked, knowing that with conventional means, he couldn't fight with this old shameless man. He got up and said coldly: "Master Bao, are you really ignorant, or are you pretending to be ignorant?" If you don't know, I'll teach you! ”

"Something to say." Bao Zheng also smiled.

"Let me ask you, what are you investigating this case for?" Wang Su said coldly.

"Find out the backstage of the beggar gang and don't let the mastermind behind the scenes get away with it!" Bao Zheng's voice was like a bell, and he said deafeningly: "Give me ten years of peace to the people of Bianjing!" ”

"You're not targeting someone?" Wang Su asked in a low voice.

"I Bao Zheng dare to pat my chest and say, in this life, I have never been right about things and not people, no exceptions!"

"It's not about the right thing, it's just for the people to talk about it." Wang Su said disapprerovingly: "You are the Yin of Kaifeng Mansion, and your every move is implicated in the direction of the court, but you still blindly use force and don't know how to advance or retreat, do you want to be a sinner in the Great Song Dynasty?!" ”

"Hahaha......" Bao Zheng laughed loudly: "A close relative of the royal family, but he is the backstage boss of the Bianjing gang, and he has done absolutely things such as illegal associations, raising dead soldiers, killing people and extorting goods, forcing good people to become prostitutes, and hurting nature and reason!" There are still people who are lobbyists for him and grease and whitewash him, which is really a great miracle in heaven and earth! ..., "Why don't you understand...... Wang Su was also anxious, and stomped his feet and said: "It's not a pity for a Zhao Zonghan to die, the pass is that he still has a brother!" ”

"His brother has gone too much...... Bao Zheng pouted.

"Don't pretend to be confused, you know which one I'm talking about!" Wang Su patted the case.

"I'm not a roundworm in your stomach." Bao Zheng spread his hands and said, "What can't you say clearly?" ”

"There are some things that can't be said explicitly." Wang Su glared.

"Don't say how I understand." Bao Zheng glared.

The two looked at each other for a long time, but in the end, Wang Su was defeated.

"Well... Good... Okay......" Wang Su was completely convinced. He arched his hand and said, "You are so powerful, I will retreat!" ”

He is a son of a family and is well versed in the way of officialdom and trade-offs, just because he is sure that if the emperor has no queen, Zhao Zongshi is the only heir. This is the early bet and waiting for the future Dafa Profit City.

Today, Zhao Yunrang came to find himself, he walked without saying a word, just thinking about taking advantage of him and not making any effort, is that called betting? There will be no dividends in the future.

But when it comes to this, it's already his limit. He would never have made such a mistake of principle before he had set a nail on it...... If you can't help Zhao Yunrang, at most there will be no dividends in the future, but if you talk nonsense, your family may be ruined in the future.

Not to mention who the emperor must be, what if the official family comes up with a handle again?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sending Wang Su away, Bao Zheng turned back to the inner room, lifted the curtain, and saw Chen Ke sitting behind the chessboard.

"You kid, you didn't steal chess." Bao Zheng's eyes widened, and he said slowly with a full game of chess pieces.

"Why can't you trust my chess pieces so much?" Chen Ke said depressedly.

"Professional habits." Bao Zheng smiled and said, "Don't think about it, I'm a general." ”

"Old Dragon Figure." Chen Kezhi said: "What is your purpose in keeping me? ”

"It's just for you to watch the show." Bao Zheng said with a smile: "This kind of officialdom drama, but many people can't see it in their lifetime." Look at it and you can mature a lot. It's a reward for you to help the old man solve the case. ”

"I'm a tight-lipped person." Chen Ke rebelled against the army and said lightly: "What happened today, no third person will know." ”

"That's right." Bao Zheng nodded and said: "Misfortune comes from the mouth, the tighter the mouth, the less misfortune." ”

The two of them did not speak, but only played chess. After killing another set, as soon as the second set started, Bao Mian came in again and said: "Tang Zhizhi and Fan Zhizhi are here." ”――

Partition -

The word "going to work" and "getting off work" was invented in the Song Dynasty and is not a modern word. I also wrote a single chapter, begging to see it.
