Chapter 30
There were many loopholes in the laws of the Han Dynasty. When it comes to being familiar with and reciting legal provisions, Shixun is indeed inferior to Zhao Da, but when it comes to chewing words and finding loopholes, ten Zhao Da can't compare to him. Indeed, a cool official like Zhao Da is also very good at playing with words, but basically in order to make innocence guilty and small cases into big cases, they will wantonly expand the extension of the application of the law, and will not find a way to narrow its extension - this is the dark under the light, which is the blind spot of this kind of cool officials.
Besides, Guan Jing and Yes Xun Nai had no intention of calculating, and Zhao Da had nothing to do, so when they bumped into each other, they were used by Shi Xun with a three-inch tongue, and in an instant, they refuted the individual's incompleteness.
If that's all it takes, Zhao Da will lose face, Wu Zhen will be released, and Cao Cao's father and son will have nothing to say - but can this really completely reverse the officialdom's suspicion of Shixun on the Hu Ren issue? The big guy will only think that Xun Chun won the battle by chewing words and taking advantage of legal loopholes.
So Shixun is still not finished, and he still has a long speech to announce to the public.
First of all, Shi Xun adjusted his expression, pretended to endure humiliation, and said in a deep voice--Of course, facing everyone in the hall, and Zhao Da and Yang Pei, who were defeated, are no longer worthy of his long speeches, just a few more sentences are enough-
"Cai Bo Zeng Yun: 'Fleeing from the Huns, Xianbei is strong, according to his hometown, he has 100,000 soldiers, and his talents are strong, and his mind is good...... The soldiers are too fast, too Huns. It's really a great disaster for China. A former garrison guarded Shuozhou, and the cities were ruined, the fields were barren, and the soldiers were incomplete, and they had to face the Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Qianghu in Hexi. If they join forces to attack, they will lose Shuozhou, that is, the Yellow River may not be able to defend! So they plotted to divide them. Disintegrate. Accept its subordination. And attack it. For this reason, I first defeated and promoted, and then accepted him as a fake - there are many people who doubt me in the capital, but a certain heart is for the country, why not care about their own name?! ā
Speaking of which, when he copied Lin Zexu's famous couplet, he changed it into a five-character poem by the way: "Those who benefit the country, what is the expectation of death and life?" Do you dare to avoid it because of evil and good fortune? ā
When he was finished, he said, "The princes of the court." Or I don't know the feelings of the border plug, Shilin Yongru, or vainly trust the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, and doubt me, jealous of me, and cause me to resign from Shuozhou, if it is not for Cao to follow him, or to make the success and failure, wouldn't thinking about it make people cry blood? Turning around and pointing at Zhao Da: "There are even such cool officials, who disregard state affairs for the sake of fame." He turned the eyes of the vassals into enemy countries. Set up today's grievance to Wu Chang, and the matter was transmitted to Shuozhou. The six Xianbei tribes shook their hearts and fled, or even invaded the states and counties, and slaughtered the people, who is to blame? ! ā
Zhao Da's face was flushed, and he was about to open his mouth to refute, but where could Xun allow him to bewitch people's hearts again-this person's heart, he had to bewitch himself! This big set has already been drafted, and he didn't stop at the moment, and continued: "I should be the prime minister, so that they can be punished for crimes that harm the country!" Then he changed his expression and topic at the same time: "They take the law as their theory, and the sixty chapters of the Han law are probably written when Emperor Gao and Emperor Xiaowu were established, and after three hundred years, there has been no change, which is really not suitable for today." They enforce the law for the country, when the law is analyzed because of the time and events, and it is the rubber pillar drum, with filial piety and the Xiongnu as the enemy's policy, used today - regardless of Xianbei, the Xiongnu into the fortress for a long time, it is also a long time for the Han Chen, only in the golden seal, are granted by the Han, and Ande will call the Han evil and Zhizhi on the same page? ! ā
At the beginning of the Han Dynasty, on the basis of the Qin law, the "Nine Chapters of the Law" and the "Eighteen Chapters of the Pang Chapter" were formulated, and by the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, twenty-seven "Yue Gong Laws" and six "Chao Laws" were added, roughly reaching the scale of sixty chapters. However, since then, the successive dynasties have only occasionally repaired, and there has been no large-scale change of the law, especially after the establishment of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it is clear that the actual situation has been very different from the Western Han Dynasty, but the imperial court only knows to follow the old law, and has not been re-established. By the end of the Han Dynasty, people of insight had already seen the shortcomings in it, and Ying Shao made the "Han Guanyi", which was an attempt to reorganize and delete the code system and legal rules. Later, Cao Wei was established, and on the basis of the Han law, it was drastically modified, and many rules that did not conform to reality were deleted, and the Wei law was revised.
Therefore, Xun said that the situation is different, and the law should also be changed, and in the current situation that the law has not been changed, as a law enforcement officer, he should interpret and use the law according to the actual situation, and cannot apply the law of the era when the Xiongnu were still an enemy country to today, more than 200 years after the Xiongnu have descended to the Han Dynasty - not to mention that Xianbei is not a Xiongnu!
"I will also be the prime minister, so that the law may be changed to meet today."
Shi Xun took advantage of this opportunity today to talk about three topics, the first is to defend himself, accepting Hu people as adopted sons is purely for national affairs, even if it damages his reputation, he can't take care of it. The second topic is to mention the legal issue by the way -- Lao Cao, if you don't revise the law, just rely on spies to use some outdated rules and bad rules to facilitate the crime of committing crimes at will, and this is not a long-term solution.
The third topic came back, and he wanted to continue to paint himself with oil paint - "The Huns of the past, only relying on the power of cavalry and archery, and the iron soldiers were outnumbered, but they were forbidden because they were." However, today's Xianbei, Karasuma, etc. are different, what is the use of forbidden? Cai Bojie is a cloud: 'The customs are not strict, the forbidden network is leaky, and the gold and iron are all thieves; The Han people fled, plotting for it, and the soldiers were more than the Huns. 'In addition, when Yuan Ben first occupied Jizhou, he lost iron soldiers into Karasuma, and Gongsun Shengji (Gongsun Du) did the same, and the former Karasuma used this iron soldier to commit the right Beiping. Now in the extension of the Han Dynasty, the iron soldiers are forbidden, and in the Karasuma of the Han Dynasty, and the Xianbei other departments, it is unforgiving, as time passes, the strong are not weak, then the Han will be destroyed, and the Han will be more powerful, this is the welfare of China? ! ā
Yuan Shao, Gongsun Du and those warlords, in order to appease and win over foreigners, and even incite foreigners to attack the forces hostile to them, I don't know how many iron weapons they exported, can you ban it? If you can't ban them, just ban the foreign forces that submit to the Han Dynasty, how strict will it be? Have you thought about it?
"The former Tanshi Huai unites all the ministries to make a strong man, and all the adults are allied, not with the Han City, why not? The city is harmless with Xianbei, and it is also beneficial to Han. If you don't set up a city, you will be weak, and Tanshi Huai'an dares to do this? ā
Yes Xun bullied too few people present who knew the situation in the side, so he told a big lie. Tanshihuai established a large alliance of the Xianbei tribe and demanded that all ministries should not trade with the Han people, mainly because they were afraid that the Han people would use the benefits of trade to divide and disintegrate, rather than really stop trade. No damage to Xianbei. It is only harmful to the Han Chinese. So later Kobi was able to rebuild the alliance. After applying for the previous discussion, Cao Wei's Huwuhuan captain Tian Yu almost broke up the alliance by luring Su Li and others to trade with the Central Plains alone.
"A certain concert please and Tuoba and other mutual markets, and the court has been indecisive for a long time, now when the prime minister is played again, if you can trade, then the Han is strong, but the enemy is the Han also. This is the benefit of a hundred generations, that is, the former Xiaoxuan Emperor lured the Southern Xiongnu to attach the strategy! ā
Speaking of this, Shi Xun looked around at everyone: "Do you want to support the proposal?" ā
Before the words fell, a person immediately stood up: "What Hongfu said is yes, and a certain wish seconded!" ā
Shi Xun took a look, yo, I thought that the first person to be incited by me would be Cao Hong and others who have no brains but have a temper, or some other person who has been getting closer and closer recently, but I didn't expect it to be him! Think again. That's right, it's got to be him -- this case. His family is also involved.
It turned out that this person was not him, it was Sima Lang Sima Boda, the prime minister's chief bookkeeper.
Sima Lang was very concerned about Wu Zhen's case, because his brother Sima Yi was now the county guard of Hedong, and according to the establishment of Shixun, he also intervened in the Xianbei trade. As soon as Wu Zhen had an accident, Sima Yi was anxious on the spot, and hurriedly wrote to his eldest brother Sima Lang in Xudu, telling him that I had never sent iron tools to Wu Qian, and I just sent him some grain, coal, silk and silk, and asked him to exchange cattle and horses with Xianbei people. There is a lack of cattle in Hedong, and war horses are needed to raise an army, so Xun wrote a letter to build a yƬ with me, but I can go to Xianbei to change, I think it is reliable, so I got on the thief ship. Big brother, you have to help me talk in front of the prime minister, don't involve me in this case - brother, I'm innocent!
Sima Lang continued to believe this urgency, and said that if the case fell on the serious supervision agency, it would be easy to handle, but now that it is in the hands of the school affairs, the ticket guy still wants to find a case if he has no case, if Wu Zhen can't survive the punishment and recruits you out, they must be like flies seeing blood, firmly biting ah! Brother, you're in danger! Just wanted to explain and intercede in front of Cao Cao, but suddenly heard that Xun had intervened, so he hurriedly ran over to watch.
Seeing that Shi Xun won a complete victory, Sima Lang felt that a big stone had fallen to the ground. Now I heard Shixun ask: "Can the secretary and others be willing to second?" He was afraid that no one would talk to him, so he hurriedly stood up and made a statement-you are right, I, I seconded it!
As soon as Sima Lang took the lead, several people immediately stood up and seconded the proposal, and they all said that they would also play the prime minister and reconsider the issue of trade with foreign races. Cao Hong naturally jumped out, shouting at the top of his voice, saying I can't write a chapter, I haven't heard Hongfu's words today, when you can write a chapter, can I add a name?
It was Xun Shi Shiran who turned around, no longer paying attention to Zhao Da, who was as earthy as an earth, but asked Yang Pei: "Is Wu Chang guilty?" ā
Yang Pei smiled bitterly: "In this way, it is innocent, and it can be exonerated." ā
Shi Xun was talking loudly at the Assassination Office, and there was already a small official who used his pen like a fly, recorded all the before and after and the words of both sides, and sent someone to run quickly to report to Cao Cao. Cao Cao and Cao Ang, father and son, gathered together, waiting for news.
Under normal circumstances, it is enough for them to know the general process and results, but Shi Xun is the best at arguing, and every word may have its deep meaning, and he may not be able to hear it, so Cao Cao is very interested, so he ordered people, you report the details of the experience, especially what Hongfu said, and not a word should be omitted.
The first part of the report was over, and when it came to Shi Xun's insistence that Wu Zhen was not guilty, Cao Ang became anxious, and said in his heart, "Uncle-in-law, don't look at me to support you, just be unreasonable, how can I explain to my father? On the contrary, Cao Cao comforted his son: "Don't be impatient, and wait for later." "In front of the public, is Hongfu so unreasonable? Judging from his usual way of doing things, if this is not the case, he must have dug a trap and waited to bury people.
The second part was reported, and when it came to Zhao Da's recitation of the legal provisions, Cao Cao frowned when he looked at it, stretched out his hand and rubbed back and forth on those lines, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart. Then sent over to Xun's rebuttal, and then a long speech, Cao Ang was happy: "I know that my uncle-in-law must have something to say!" Cao Cao continued to tighten his eyebrows and muttered.
When the final result was reported, Cao Ang breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look at his father. I saw Cao Cao suddenly raise his eyebrows and sneered: "Unexpectedly, I actually entered the Hongfu Dynasty!" "I've fallen into the trap of Hoon! Cao Cao is such a keen person, he may have been deceived for a while, but when the matter is over, he is the first to figure it out - the whole case of Er Wu Zhen is a big trap that has been planned for a long time! (To be continued......)
