On June 19, the 18th year of Zhenguan, Li Zhen, the king of Yue, and Xiao Yu were ordered to request the trial of the Xiangzhou military food case, and the ministers of the DPRK and China immediately heard the wind and moved, and there were many people in this chapter for this matter, and there were many supporters on both sides, and it was difficult for the emperor to decide, so it was decided to make a public decision on the morning of June 22, and as soon as this will came out, the eyes of the government and the opposition were all focused on the Xiangzhou military food case, and the Xiangzhou military food case itself was not a big case, but it involved a lot of people, and there was already a prime minister in it. In addition, now that there is a dispute between the prime minister and the popular prince over the right to hear cases, this kind of excitement is really rare, and it is normal for people to attract attention. At the time of the divergent opinions, the parties moved frequently, and there was a miasma of black smoke in the Beijing Division, and the political atmosphere that seemed a little depressed because of the death of the prince Li Zhi suddenly became active, and there was a faint scene of mountain rain coming and smoke all over the building, but in the midst of such a noise, Li Zhen, the initiator, arrived at the Criminal Department as if nothing happened, and officially began his career in charge of the Criminal Department.

The Criminal Department, one of the six departments under the jurisdiction of Shangshu Province, is located under the Ministry of War, above the Ministry of Households, and is the Ministry of the Central Bank, however, in terms of the number of officials, it is the first of the six departments, which is almost equal to the sum of the two departments of officials and soldiers. The Criminal Department is in charge of the legal order, the criminal law, and the prohibition of the state of the subordinate and equal discussion, and is divided into four divisions: the Criminal Department, the Metropolitan Official, the Ministry of Justice, and the Division, of which the Criminal Department is in charge of the law, according to the Dali Temple and the cases of the world, all major cases can be heard, and the name of the Shangshu Shilang can be used to form three divisions with the Imperial History Zhongcheng and Dali Qing, and jointly participate in the consultation, and the Criminal Department has the responsibility of drafting, reporting and announcing the relevant list when the imperial court amnesties the world; The capital department is responsible for criminal investigation, sea arrest and management of the prison; The Ministry is responsible for the management of internal and external endowments, funds, salaries, and gifts, as well as military supplies and equipment; The department is responsible for managing the entry and exit registration of access control gates across the country, as well as the handling of lost property in various places. The four divisions of the Criminal Department all have Lang Zhong and Wai Lang as the chief and deputy chief officials, and the directors of each department are different, all of them have more than 370 officials of the ninth rank and above, nearly 3,000 officials of the ninth rank and above in the foreign department, about 200 officials in Beijing, more than 1,400 officials, and the rest are scattered in various state capitals across the country.

People have a lot of things, just these officials of the Criminal Department came to see it is enough for Li Zhen to drink a pot, not to mention the endless stream of people from other ministries who came to visit after hearing the news, poor Li Zhen has not been able to take a breath since he arrived at the Criminal Department early in the morning, just the greetings are almost crooked, and he has been busy until it is nearly noon, which can be regarded as sending all the visitors away, dizzy and swollen, secretly sighing that it is not easy to be an official, However, it didn't stop there, Liao Chengye, the waiter of the Criminal Department, was respectfully respecting Li Zhen, and waiting for Li Zhen's instructions in his spacious office.

His Royal Highness, the lower official failed to stop the officials of the Criminal Department from going to the capital, it is really ashamed, the lower official Liao Chengye saw that Li Zhen did not speak for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little false in his heart Liao Chengye was originally an official on the side of the King of Wei, but since Li Zhi entered the East Palace, Liao Chengye switched to Li Zhen's camp, although his official rank is the highest status among the civil officials of the Yue Wangfu family, but after all, he is a halfway monk, and he is not Li Zhen's henchman. However, more than half of the officials supported Li Zhen, who was about to take charge of the Criminal Department, but Xiao Yu, the Zhongshu Ling, although Liao Chengye had done a lot of work in private and sought the support of subordinate officials for Li Zhen, how could it be that the Wei Wang family in the bureaucratic system of the Criminal Department was powerful, and most of Liao Chengye's efforts were in vain.

Out of the way. Li Zhen waved his hand to interrupt Liao Chengye's words, and said with a smile: The matter is especially undecided, isn't there still a court discussion, and then the decision will be made, Liao Shilang will do more pacification work in the past two days, but as for whether it will be successful or not, he doesn't have to care too much.

Li Zhen said that he didn't have to care, but it changed in Liao Chengye's ears In Liao Chengye's opinion, Li Zhen asked him to go all out to reverse the passive situation of the Criminal Department, if there is enough time, Liao Chengye is not afraid, it's a big deal to find some reasons to put those thorns in the place, and re-select some of his own people, with Li Zhen, the prince in charge of the Criminal Department, it is not too difficult, but unfortunately now there is only one day left before the court meeting, How is it possible to reverse the current passive situation, but in the face of Li Zhen's expectations, Liao Chengye didn't dare to say that he couldn't do it, he was so anxious that he didn't dare to wipe it with sweat, and after the corners of his mouth twitched for a while, he gritted his teeth and said: Your Highness, rest assured, the lower officials will do their best.

Well, that's good, Liao Shilang can still be trusted by this king. Li Zhen smiled and nodded, and after a few words of comfort, the topic suddenly changed, as if she had remembered something by chance, and said with a seemingly casual look: Isn't this person Liu Dake in Dubu Langzhong simple, very interesting, well, but he can be a big responsibility.

Li Zhen's words seem to be a compliment to Liu Dake, but this can only be said in reverse, Liu Dake is one of the descendants of King Wei, originally the king of Wei's companion Li Tai's reading boy, Zhenguan ten years in July, recommended by Wei King Li Tai, first entered the criminal department as the head of the department, and then in the thirteenth year of Zhenguan was transferred to the division as a member of the outer lang, and then in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan was promoted to the capital Langzhong, this time the official of the criminal department supported Xiao Yu is the most active in this person, jumping up and down and tossing happily, Advocating nonsense such as that a big case must be tried by an adult, the implication is that Li Zhen is not worthy of trying the Xiangzhou case.

Liao Chengye, as a waiter of the Criminal Department, is very clear about Liu Dake's deeds, and when he heard Li Zhen say this, he immediately echoed it knowingly: What His Royal Highness said is very true, Liu Lang is highly talented, and he should be reused, and the lower officials are willing to recommend him as a don't drive in Yongzhou. Langzhong of the criminal department is an official from the five grades, and he is a courtier who can go to the Hajj, and Yongzhou is a local official under the five grades, although the grade is one level higher, but there is no power and glory of the Hajj, and furthermore, although Yongzhou is also a place in Guanzhong, it is far less prosperous than the Beijing Division, Liao Chengye is planning to degrade Liu Dake Mingsheng.

It's not appropriate, Liu Langzhong's ability to condescend to others is really wronged, so it's okay, this king heard that there is a vacancy in Liuzhou's assassin history, well, Liao Shilang will protect him as Liuzhou's assassin history. Li Zhen shook her head and said unhurriedly.

Liao Chengye listened, Dengshi had a cold sweat Liuzhou is naturally the Liuzhou of Guangxi in the later generations, but Liuzhou in the early Tang Dynasty is not the prosperous place of the later generations, Liuzhou in the Zhenguan period has not been developed on a large scale, it can only be said that it is a wild place, it is a place where people eat people and do not spit out bones, under the water and soil, five or six of the ten thorn history are sick and died in office, and the rest are also based on resignation and retreat, since the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, there is no one who can complete the term of office, Li Zhen This is to promote Liu Dake, It's completely a drain of thousands of miles, but I'm afraid that Liu Dake may not be able to look at Jingshi again when he dies.

Yes, Your Highness is wise. Liao Chengye had long heard of Li Zhen's ruthless methods, and when he saw Li Zhen laughing and talking, he sent a courtier out, but he was still frightened, how dare he say anything, and he hurriedly bowed down to promise, and the sweat on his head was already flowing like a waterfall.

That's good, Liao Shilang just has to put on the fold, and the king at the head of the ministry will have his own arrangements. Li Zhen was very satisfied with Liao Chengye's acquaintance, and said with a smile: The capital department is an important position in my criminal department, if it is entrusted to someone else, I am afraid that it will be a big thing, Liao Shilang has been in the criminal department for a long time, can anyone recommend it?

Li Zhen This is a standard stick to give a piece of candy Liao Chengye is a waiter in the Criminal Department, but since he voted for Li Zhen, he has been excluded in the Criminal Department, and this time he has come forward to be a villain, it is conceivable that there will be a hard life in the Criminal Department next, if you say that there is no resentment in your heart, it is definitely a lie, if you don't give some sweetness, although Liao Chengye does not dare to express any dissatisfaction, but it is inevitable that there are hidden dangers, but Li Zhen will let go of important positions such as Dubu Langzhong and let Liao Chengye promote his henchmen, this favor is great, Liao Chengye was so moved that he almost shouted Long live, but after all, Liao Chengye is an old bird who has been in the officialdom for a long time, and he is excited, but he will not get carried away, his face twitched for a while and he calmed down, pondered for a while, and said in a loud voice: Your Highness Mingjian, the lower officials think that Chen Xuanjing, a member of the capital department, has outstanding ability and is reliable, and can be an important position in the capital department, and Li Kundong, the director of the department, is calm and sophisticated.

Chen Xuanjing and Li Kundong are all talents cultivated by Yan Ji Firm, and later served in the Yue Wangfu, when Li Zhen extorted some positions in the Criminal Department from Li Tai, he stuffed a group of people into the Criminal Department, and Chen and Li were the most outstanding among them, not only were they not excluded, but they came out of the overwhelming advantage of the Criminal Department of the Wei Wang's first line, which in addition to Li Zhen's secret support, it was also the reason why the two were outstanding, at this time Liao Chengye pushed the two people out, It's true that he is trying to shoot Li Zhen's sycophants.

Well, it's done, then the two of them are fine. Li Zhen knew Liao Chengye's intentions, and was extremely satisfied with his upper way, and after pretending to think about it, he said: Liuzhou is an important place, and the position of the assassin is very important, and it is not Liu Dake who can not be a capable person, and now the post of the assassin is not a good thing for the imperial court.

Yes, the subordinate obeyed. Liao Chengye saw that Li Zhen was witty, and the corners of his mouth couldn't hold back a smile, and hurriedly agreed, walked to the copywriter and sat down, with a wave of the pen, the two copies of the capital preservation sprinkled with less than a pillar of incense were completed, and then walked in front of Li Zhen with both hands, bowed and said: Your Highness, the lower official has been drafted, please take a look at it.

Very good. Li Zhen only glanced at it, and then confirmed that there was nothing wrong, laughed, got up, walked to Liao Chengye, patted Liao Chengye on the shoulder with great satisfaction, and said with a smile: The conversation with Chen and Li will be handled by Liao Shilang, and this king will go to the ministry.

Li Zhen asked Liao Chengye to sell favors, Liao Chengye understood this, and while he was moved in his heart, he respectfully saluted and said: Yes, the next official will do it.

Well. Li Zhen nodded, didn't say anything more, walked out of the lobby of the office, and led Yingda and the others to the yamen of the official department not far away

Zhenguan years of the Ministry of Shangshu is very interesting, in addition to a term of the Ministry of Shangshu Sun Wuji, before and after the Ministry of Shangshu are all generals in the army, from Hou Junji, Li Daozong to Su Dingfang, these three in addition to Hou Junji literary talent is slightly lacking, Li Daozong and Su Dingfang are able to write and martial arts, it is really a horse can fight, get off the horse can govern the country, the reason why the early Tang Dynasty can be relatively politically clear, and this group of officials are very upright, the selection of talents has a great relationship, Even the rebellious Hou Junji himself has done a very good job in selecting talents, it can be said that the Ministry of Officials is the department with the least mistakes among the six departments of Shangshu Province, but it is Su Dingfang's turn to take office but there is a strange thing Liu Cheng, the son of Liu Shizhong, The letter of guarantee turned out to be fake, and it went all the way through a few levels, and no one in the entire Ministry saw a flaw, this is really a big scandal, although Su Dingfang himself was recruited with Li Shimin at the time, and was not in office, but a mistake of poor supervision is still inevitable, since he returned to the court, Su Dingfang has already thoroughly investigated the officials several times, but unfortunately he hasn't been able to find anything, and he can't understand how the letter of guarantee came about. Some time ago, Li Shimin patronized and was sad, and did not pursue the responsibility of all parties, although Su Dingfang was uneasy, but he was still able to stabilize his position, this time the Xiangzhou military ration case was in a big rage, and Su Dingfang was difficult, no, it was noon, and the old Comrade Su was still stunned that he had no appetite, and was sulking in his own office, but he saw Li Qianhe, the servant of the Ministry of Officials, hurriedly entering from outside, and immediately snorted with a drooping face, expressing displeasure.

Yu Su Shangshu, His Royal Highness the King of Yue has come down. Li Qianhe didn't care about Su Dingfang's ugly face, strode forward, bowed his hand very respectfully, and reported in a low voice.

Oh? When Su Dingfang heard this, he was stunned, his eyes rolled several times and he didn't understand what Li Zhen was doing, at the time of the Xiangzhou military food case, and when it was the time to seize the heir, Su Dingfang had the intention to avoid it, but when he remembered the happy days when the two worked together in the military department, Su Dingfang was not easy to refuse, and after being silent for a while, he said: Li Shilang, Your Highness is here

When he returned to Lord Su, His Royal Highness came for official business, and said that he had official business to discuss with Lord Su. Li Qianhe is now one of Li Zhen's absolute confidants, and he knows what Li Zhen wants to do, but he heard Su Dingfang's question at this time, but he didn't say it explicitly, but replied vaguely.

The Criminal Department and the Ministry of Officials belong to the six departments of Shangshu Province, and the business between each other is indispensable, and the so-called official business is more, Su Dingfang can't understand Li Zhen's intention, but he can listen to Li Qianhe say so carefully, but it is not easy to say, in desperation, he got up with a wry smile, shook his head, and walked to the Yamen with a sullen head, just arrived at the Yamen, and saw a large group of middle and low-level officials in the Ministry of Officials surrounding Li Zhen like stars holding the moon, and he was upset for a while, but at this time it was the time for a lunch break, Su Dingfang couldn't reprimand a group of subordinates, so he had to stride forward and fake coughing a few times.

Su Dingfang was born as a general, and the murderous aura on his body was very heavy, and the officials of the subordinate department were very afraid of his majesty.

Li Zhen is not a person who is easy to join in the fun, and he doesn't like the unprincipled patting of others to welcome him, but in order to reflect his own corporal Lixian, he had to be patient and talk nonsense to those officials, at this time, seeing that Su Dingfang came and broke the siege, he also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and walked over, and politely bowed his hand to courtesy: Su Shangshu, Xiao Wang took the liberty to come to disturb, and asked Haihan to be a one.

Haha, it's easy to say, it's easy to say, since His Royal Highness is here, please sit inside, this official has long admired His Highness's feat of conquering the Western Regions, and today he took advantage of it, and this official can have a good life to chat with His Highness, Your Highness, please. Although Su Dingfang is both civil and military, he is an out-and-out standard soldier, and he has always been optimistic about Li Zhen's martial courage, although he was worried about the Xiangzhou case before, but when he saw Li Zhen's face, he aroused the addiction of discussing military strategy, laughed and returned the salute, stepped to the side, waved his hand, and signaled Li Zhen to go first.

Su-sama, please. Li Zhen didn't be polite, smiled and waved his hand, signaled, and walked into the lobby of the yamen first, accompanied by Su Dingfang to the hall of the guests.

After a few words of greeting, without waiting for Su Dingfang to ask about his intentions, Li Zhen smiled and took out the two guaranteed copies drafted by Liao Chengye from his wide sleeves, handed them to Su Dingfang, and said with a smile: Lord Su, these are two letters of guarantee, please take a look at them.

According to the Tang system, the prince does have the authority to protect the meritocracy, but the prince has the final say on whether to approve or not, and the relevant assessment must be carried out by the officials, and those who are indeed capable will be selected, therefore, but all the princes will not come forward in person, but hand over to the henchmen, that is, to leave a room for maneuver between the two sides, like Li Zhen came to the door to protect people, it is really an example since the founding of the Tang Dynasty, this is not, Li Zhen's move like this, The smile on Su Dingfang's face disappeared immediately, and after looking at Li Zhen with a puzzled face for a while, he took the two guarantees in Li Zhen's hand with a wry smile, and when he saw it, his eyes immediately widened like copper bells, and his face twitched for a long time, but he couldn't say a word
