Chapter 383: The Problem
Chapter 383: Puzzle
Knock knock, drums beating. The big drum at the entrance of the governor's office does not ring once a year, and only people with great grievances will come to beat the drum, and in addition to the political achievements of the officials in these years, the low rate of unjust cases is also an important indicator.
How low grievance rates are reflected? It is in the drum rate, which is also a very special tradition left by Emperor Taizu. When Ding Rou was reading a book in the study, he had read this record, originally because there was a supervision institute, the drumming of grievances could not be used, but Emperor Taizu ordered it to be retained.
The governor's yamen became lively with the sound of drums, and the people who followed Ding Rou to watch the excitement finally figured out what the flag on the bookbox was for, and the eye-catching red letters were conspicuous.
"Is it to avenge Governor Yin?"
"Isn't Governor Yin dead? Died from a gunpowder explosion? β
"Who is he? is handsome, I haven't heard that Yin Chengshan has a brother in Guangzhou. β
"You're blind, obviously a woman disguised as a man, where did you come from?"
"Ah, you say she's a woman? It's really bold, she has to endure all the hardships to complain, looking at her handsome appearance, she will inevitably be pierced into a sieve if she survives the chopping board. Of course, not everyone's cases will pass the chopping board, and most cases such as murder will cross the brazier, only major cases, such as treason, will pass the chopping board.
Empress Taizu, after leaving strict performance evaluation items for officials, also prevented the families of the most criminals who were bored or delayed the verdict from having nothing to do. Combined with the laws of the previous dynasty, it was deliberately added to the laws of the Great Qin.
Ding Rou beat the drum while thinking that she had studied the laws of Great Qin, from which it could be seen that the traverser had made progress in legal theory, and at the same time, she could also see Emperor Taizu's compromise on feudal inheritance, even if he became an emperor. He didn't have full control over some things, and he had to take into account the social environment at the time. Ritual inheritance. If the emperor does whatever he wants, he will also be beaten down.
Emperor Taizu was only a representative of the elite class, and even if he was the founding emperor, if he acted perversely and violated etiquette too much, he would be abandoned by those who supported him. The founding emperor is relatively better because he has the most power and the least involvement behind it. Most of the reform measures of the emperors who have inherited several generations have ended in failure, and throughout history, every successful change is indispensable in terms of time, place and people.
Empress Taizu abolished Cheng Zhu Lixue with all her might. The status of the queen was almost lost. She was conquered by Emperor Taizu. It is not as easy as it is written in the feudal era to change the thinking of the feudal era, and those who are not convinced will be killed, but who can kill everyone in the world?
Empress Taizu finally succeeded in the coup d'Γ©tat, and raised a butcher's knife to kill the remnants of the Yin King, also because Emperor Wenxi was the son-in-law and occupied the highest point of etiquette. Except for those who have interests involved, most people will stand by Emperor Wen Xi. If all the opposing opinions are slaughtered, Great Qin will not be far from destruction.
Ding Rou can see the helplessness of crossing the husband and wife in the law, and at the same time there are several traps left, perhaps for later people to use.
The drum beat as quickly as it sounded, and the governor who was handling official business in the government was stunned when he heard the movement, and there was a grievance between the two Guang under his rule? "Who's beating the drums?"
"Lord Hui, I don't know who my subordinates are, but she is dressed as a man... Neither is it. β
The female companion men's clothes are not seen by others, the person who beats the drum not only wears earrings, but also exposes a smooth neck, the first glance is amazing, and the second glance makes it clear that women can also wear it like this, different from the charm and wanton of men's Confucianism, it is very unique, and it should not be wrapped tightly, but this dress is really challenging the nerves of the old antiques. β
"Yoon Seung-sun."
The governor was also very helpless, the evidence was conclusive, there were first accusations, tainted witnesses, evidence of collaborating with the enemy, and eighty percent of the officials in the Guangzhou officialdom were unanimous. After he reported these to the emperor, there was no longer any instruction from Emperor Wenxi in the capital, and he personally went to the Supervision Yuan and learned that the commander of the Liangguang Supervision was not there, and the people who stayed behind could only help him look at Yin Chengshan's mansion, and the rest had to wait for the emperor's order.
The Supervision Yuan is an official, and the procedure is completely different from that of officialdom, and the Supervision Yuan claims to supervise the affairs of the world and supervise hundreds of officials, so naturally it can only be transferred by the emperor, even if he is an official and is in the position of governor, he cannot order the Supervision Yuan to act.
The governor also has connections in the capital, and he also has a circle behind him, since Yin Chengshan had a treason case, there is very little news sent from the capital, except for knowing that His Majesty ordered that hundreds of officials should not be allowed to discuss the case, he has not received the news that His Majesty has disposed of Yin Chengshan's family and the mansion.
He wondered if His Majesty was getting old? It's not that there has never been a case of treason, and when did Your Majesty not suppress it with an iron fist? Didn't that criminal raider raid his house and exile? This time the matter was so unusual, Mrs. Xiao always said in the governor's ear that he should be a man and leave a line, and also helped him sort out the news of the capital.
Sometimes the ladies knew more about it, and the governor judged that Emperor Wenxi was waiting, but he didn't know what he was waiting for. Therefore, he did not persecute Yoon Seung-sun's orphans. He was originally very generous, but Ding... The governor straightened his official hat, "Except for Yin Chengshan's wife Ding, this governor can't think of others." β
Ding not only blocked the messengers sent by the Governor's Palace, but at the same time yesterday he asked Ding Rou to inform Ding Rou to go to Yizhuang, and the people sent were beaten by Ding Rou, asking the reason was that they said the wrong thing, Ding did not admit that it was Yin Chengshan who died, and the governor had not poured out his efforts to clean her up, and she beat the drum again.
Although the governor was calm and dignified on his face, he also held back a sense of anger in his heart, as if he was the one who made the mistake, and he was a traitor and villain to slander Yin Chengshan.
As soon as the drum sounds, whether Ding can make a point or not, the Governor's evaluation this year will be recorded. His evaluations over the years are very innocent, there are many meritorious deeds recorded, and the mistakes are almost blank, if he is not outstanding, he cannot be in the position of the governor as a middle-class jinshi, and the reputation of the governor of Liangguang in the officialdom has always been good, and now it has been mixed up by Yin Chengshan and his wife.
Even if Mrs. Xiao said good things about Ding Rou again, at this time, she was a girl who didn't know the height of the sky in the eyes of the governor, "Come on, carry the chopping board that Emperor Taizu personally ordered to cast, and the governor will see if Ding will retreat after seeing the chopping board." β
If she moves forward bravely, the governor will feel that Yin Chengshan has married a reckless wife, which is useless, and the prefect's mansion is a master of memory. If she retreats, the Governor will look down on her, but she will be nothing more than a clown. How do you think that there is no way out for Ding's family.
"Mighty, mighty, ascend, ascend."
Ding Rou listened to the movement in the palace, stopped beating the drum, hung up the drum hammer, took two steps back, Ding Rou lifted the bookcase on her back upward, and wiped her face with a handkerchief, the big drum that no one had touched for too long knocked her face dusty.
"The Governor ascends, and the idlers retreat." A middle-aged man walked out in a dark red errand costume, and his eyes turned around Ding Rou, "Who is beating the drum?" β
"Governor Yin's wife."
Everyone retreated, Ding Rou didn't speak, and others could see her.
"Governor Yin's wife? I remember the surname Ding? β
"Yes, yes, it's the daughter of the current president of the Hanlin Academy, and the granddaughter of Emperor Zhishi."
The person in the back whispered, "No wonder you dare to confront the court in such a dress, there is a lively watch today." β
"It's very lively, which criminal traitorous official's family dares to be like her? See how the Governor cleans her up. β
Some people admired, naturally some people were disgusted, Ding Rou didn't take the ear-rushing discussion to heart, and said to the seemingly fierce officer: "Can I see the governor?" β
"Your Excellency is waiting for you." The messenger led Ding Rou into the door, and the person guarding the door stretched out his hand to stop ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] οΌ½
