This has been hungry for a long time, and he has been entangled with his wife for 300 rounds!

Luo Shixin only felt that his whole body was comfortable, and he got up early the next morning, full of energy, even if ten tigers came, he could also knock them down.

As in the past, they got up early to practice martial arts, and they achieved such a big victory, Li Yuan specially boycotted the court for three days, so as to celebrate, and there was no need to rush to the early court, practice archery, and after sweating profusely, take a shower and read a book.

In the past, at this time, he would usually read military books and study the "Mirror of the Six Armies" taught by Li Jing, but today he turned to the "Martial Virtue Law" and looked at it patiently.

"Wude Law" is a political law, which requires not only officials to understand it, but also the people to understand it. Therefore, there is no esoteric language in the wording, and the various terms are easy to understand.

Luo Shixin had lived in the Tang Dynasty for four years and was basically used to the qiē here. Because of being in a high position, I will be more or less exposed to some esoteric ancient texts. The level of understanding of ancient texts has also improved to a certain extent, and it is not a problem to read "Wude Law". It's just that "Wude Law" is a national law, with a total of 12 articles and 500 articles, and it is impossible to read it in one morning to be familiar with it.

I just read a small part, so I hurriedly ate breakfast and went to the criminal department to order a report.

As one of the six most important institutions of the Tang Dynasty, the official residence of the Criminal Department is located in the east of Chengtianmen Street in the imperial city, the north of the fourth horizontal street, and the second line in the west of the capital hall of Shangshu Province, which is very close to the imperial city.

Luo Shixin has lived in Chang'an for a long time, and although he has not entered the Criminal Department, he knows the approximate location of the Criminal Department, and he has reached the entrance of the Criminal Department without spending much effort.

The Criminal Department is an important position in the six ministries, which is permitted. Ordinary people are not allowed to enter.

Luo Shixin showed his official seal, and was allowed to pass by the guards at the door.

One of them said cautiously: "The rules are like this, the little ones have only heard of the prestige of adults." I don't know the true face of adults, so adults are not strange. ”

Luo Shixin said disappreciatively that he didn't care.

Another person followed: "Xiao Xiang came to the Criminal Department early in the morning, and he is talking to the adults in the hall at the moment. ”

Xiao Xiang?

Xiao Yu! During this period, there were many prime ministers, several, but the real surname Xiao was only Xiao Yu.

Luo Shixin suddenly thought that Xiao Yu followed Li Shimin to fight against Wang Shichong, gilded as a civil official to earn military merits, and after he came back, he was appointed as the right servant of Shangshu. The official positions of the Tang Dynasty were used in the previous dynasty's system of three provinces and six ministries. It is a well-organized central bureaucracy. The three provinces refer to Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province, and Shangshu Province, of which Shangshu Province is the highest government decree body of the central government, and everything is always done. Status is the most important. The Ministry of Officials, the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, the Ministry of Crime, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Industry are all under the jurisdiction of Shangshu Province.

The capital of Shangshu Province is the head of the Shangshu Order, that is, the head of the Wenchen military generals, and the left and right hands of the Shangshu Order are called the left servant of Shangshu and the right servant of Shangshu. Li Shimin, who was highly meritorious at that time, was awarded the Shang Shu Ling, and now he has succeeded him as the crown prince and has also resigned from the position of Shang Shu Ling. Shang Shuling has since become an empty position that does not accept his fate. Those who are in charge of Shangshu Province have become Shangshu subordinates below Shangshu Order. He is also the minister of Zaifu.

The Criminal Department is under the control of Shangshu Province, and Xiao Yu, the right servant of Shangshu, is his top boss.

At the beginning of the Criminal Department, the connections were sent, and God was also fighting on his side?

Luo Shixin naturally thought of Xiao Yu's request when he came to deliver the decree before he left for the Turks. And he also happened to "capture" Empress Xiao, and after the triumph, escorted them to Chang'an.

Li Yuan did not embarrass Empress Xiao and Yang Zhengdao, the old and young, and did not bring them with him when he offered them prisoners. Let them taste humiliation, but receive them politely. received the courtesy of the Tang Dynasty, and also prepared a mansion for their ancestors and grandchildren in Xingdao to settle them. Yang Zhengdao was even more meritorious because of his dedication to the jade seal of the country, and he was named a free rider outside the staff. Although he is an idle man and has no rights, his monthly income is enough for them to live a stable life.

Perhaps it is this kind of "preferential treatment" that will spread some impossible rumors.

Walking quickly into the lobby of the Criminal Department, many officials of the Criminal Department who came first gathered around Xiao Yu.

As the top boss and the minister of a country, how can these old fritters who have been in the officialdom for a long time not stutter.

"I don't know if Xiao Xiang came to the Criminal Department early in the morning, is there something important?" Liu Dewei, the waiter of the criminal department, bowed, with a somewhat slippery flattery.

Xiao Yu bowed his head and said, "There is nothing important, the new Lord Shangshu has not come yet, right?" You go and go about your business, and don't pay attention to me for now. Today I don't need to go to court early, it's more free. Yu came here to catch up with Lord Shangshu when he had nothing to do, and he didn't have any official business. He said lightly, and the expressions of Liu Dewei and Yigan Langzhong, Yuan Wailang, as well as the directors of the Criminal Department, the directors of the Metropolitan Officials, the Directors of the Comparison Department, and the Directors of the Divisions all changed slightly.

Especially Andy Lau. His face was instantly ugly, but such a look flashed, thinking of Luo Shixin, who had worked with him, there was a trace of incomprehension in his eyes.

Xiao Yu is the prime minister of the current dynasty, talking about status. He is second only to Li Yuan's "elder brother" Pei Lian, and in the entire Tang Dynasty, only Pei Lin and Xiao Yu are special in Li Yuan's eyes.

At any time, Li Yuan called Pei Lin "Pei Supervisor", the old brother who ate, drank, prostituted and gambled with him. And calling Xiao Yu is an affectionate call to "Xiao Lang", ordering him to rise to the throne and stand, second only to Pei Lone.

With Xiao Yu's dignity, he personally came to the Criminal Department to chat with the newly appointed Shangshu Luo Shixin of the Criminal Department, and when he learned that he had not arrived, he deigned to wait: this relationship can no longer be described as "friendly".

Luo Shixin is Li Yuan's son-in-law, Pingyang's husband, he has brilliant military achievements, he is deeply valued by Li Yuan, and his relationship with Xiao Yu is so close, this criminal department is a great god!

All of a sudden, for Luo Shixin's skyrocketing, the minds of the vast majority of officials up and down the Criminal Department turned back and forth.

Xiao Yu asked them to do their own thing, but no one left.

are all old fritters, how can there be a reason to let a prime minister wait for him to leave in the lobby.

At this time, Luo Shixin walked into the lobby, and he had never been in contact with the Criminal Department. The only official I know about the Criminal Department is the former Criminal Department Shangshu Qu Tutong. is still because they have been to the court together, and because Luo Yi's relationship has been in contact. Now Qu Tutong has been transferred to the Ministry of Industry, and there is no official of the Criminal Department that he can know. But when his eyes fell on Dewei Lau, he also realized that he was wrong.

He still knows people in this criminal department, but he is not very familiar with it, and he is not even very clear why he is in the criminal department.

In the lobby, except for Liu Dewei, the only person he knew was Xiao Yu, the right servant of Shangshu who was surrounded by officials.

Seeing Luo Shixin's arrival, Xiao Yu immediately stood out from the crowd and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Lord Shangshu, I didn't have the opportunity to thank you in person yesterday." Uninvited today, Lord Shangshu is not strange. ”

The officials of the Criminal Department were even more stunned, and Xiao Yu's attitude seemed to be more respectful.

Liu Dewei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in his heart: "This Lord Shangshu is a fierce dragon who has crossed the river!" Don't be careless, don't be careless......"

"I've seen Xiao Xiang, Xiao Xiang is polite!" Luo Shixin has always respected him and returned the respect, Xiao Yu is so polite, and he has done a lot of courtesy here.

"No need to be polite!" Xiao Yu helped Luo Shixin and said, "When Lord Shangshu first arrived in this Criminal Department, he must not know much about the officials of the Criminal Department. I'll introduce you to Lord Shangshu......" Saying that, he was the first to point to Liu Dewei, and said: "This is Liu Dewei, the waiter of the Criminal Department, Liu Shilang ......" He was about to introduce it, and suddenly remembered Liu Dewei's resume, and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, you should know each other, right?" ”

Liu Dewei said: "Of course, the heroic courage of the second young general in the past is unforgettable in this life and this life. ”

When Luo Shixin was under Zhang Xutuo in the past, he met Pei Renji's son, who was not much older than him, and Pei Xingyan, who was known as the enemy of ten thousand people, and the two had a good relationship and were like brothers. After Zhang Xutuo died in battle, he and Qin Qiong were reassigned to Pei Renji. Because of Pei Xingyan's relationship, Pei Renji is very good to Luo Shixin, like half a son, and people in the army call him the second young general. Liu Dewei Xuzhou Pengcheng people are known for their strategy, in the last years of the great cause, when Pei Renji crusaded against the Huaizuo rebel army, he was transferred to Pei Renji's account, and later followed Pei Renji to Li Mi and worked together for many years. The relationship is not close, there is no deep friendship, but they all know each other.

"Liu Shilang, you're welcome." Rothson responded.

Then Xiao Yu introduced other officials of the Criminal Department to Luo Shixin, Lang Zhong Cen Yan of the Criminal Department, Zhang Tong, He Wenzi, Jiang Li, Gu Ming, the directors of the Criminal Department, Feng Si and Meng Hai, the directors of the Ministry of Comparison Zou Liang, Shi Dong, Shen Zhinan, Shao Yu, and the directors of the Simen Lu Qing and Shen Jing, as for the other Lingshi, Shulingshi, Pavilion Chief, and Zhanggu of the Criminal Department; The history of the official order, the history of the book order, the pavilion chief, and the palm of the capital, the history of the order of the department, the history of the book order, the pavilion chief, and the palm of the department, and the history of the order of the division, the history of the book order, the pavilion chief, and the palm of the solid are not additionally introduced.

As middle- and lower-level officials of the Criminal Department, they did not gather in the lobby, and it was impossible for Xiao Yu, as a high-ranking prime minister, to write down their names one by one.

Just listening to Xiao Yu's introduction, Luo Shixin knew that the Criminal Department, as one of the six central departments, was the most leisurely one, and it was not comparable to the Right Xiaowei he was in charge of in the past. The right Xiaowei is just a department, but the task is just to protect the safety of the imperial city.

The Criminal Department is only an internal department, and there are four departments, namely the Criminal Department, the Guandu, the Comparison Department, and the Division. The four departments are subdivided into the principal, the history of the order, the history of the book, the pavilion chief, and the palm, each department has its own things to deal with, and the number of people is more than 50 people.

And he Luo Shixin is the prefect of these hundreds of people, in charge of all aspects of Datang's litigation, criminal law, law and other matters.

The task was much bigger than he had imagined, and the responsibilities were much heavier than he had imagined.

The chief Shangshu, one of the six departments, even if it is an idle criminal department, is also the core institution of the entire dynasty, and it is not something that can be controlled lightly.

Sensing the weight of this criminal department's book, Luo Shixin had not yet had a deep understanding of the criminal department, and he had already felt a pressure coming towards him. (To be continued......)
