The dim prison did not see the light of day, and in the aisle, Du Guan Shangshu personally led Gao Cheng to the road, and said as he walked:

"But please rest assured, the lower officials have all arranged for Sima Servant, and they will never let him be wronged."

Gao Cheng nodded, and walked to Sima Ziru's cell, only to be relieved, and finally had black hair.

ordered the jailer to open the door, Gao Cheng sent Duguan Shangshu and others away, leaving four cronies to guard the door, and carried wine and meat into the prison himself.

The cell was clean, apparently cleaned, and Sima Ziru was not shackled, not so much in custody awaiting trial, but on leave in prison.

Of course, this vacation is really against my will.

Sima Ziru looked at Gao Cheng quietly and smiled, and put wine and food on his face.

"Cheng came to visit his uncle, why didn't his uncle speak."

Gao Cheng handed over a glass of wine and said with a smile.

Sima Ziru took it, but he didn't drink it, just looked at the wine in the cup and said:

"Don't you dare to be the uncle of the world, the thing in this cup is dove wine? If so, the prince might as well give me a white silk, and the son will die facing the north, but he doesn't want to let his appearance disturb King Gao. ”

"Uncle knows that I don't have the intention of harming me, so why bother making such jokes."

After that, Gao Cheng filled a glass for himself and drank it all.

Although he drinks fake wine mixed with water all year round, Gao Cheng's alcohol consumption is not bad.

Sima Ziru still didn't drink, put down the wine glass, and wondered:

"I have no grudge against the prince, I don't know why I ended up in today's situation, it won't be the son of the world who wants to take advantage of me and rectify it."

"Uncle is too careful."

Gao Cheng was relieved, and dragged out his whole plan, and added a sentence when he was ready:

"With today's difficulties, my uncle can prove his innocence, and no one will ever hold my uncle accountable for taking bribes."

"So I want to thank the prince for his kindness?"

Sima Ziru understood that Gao Cheng really didn't have any intention of harming himself, so he picked up the wine cup and drank the wine in the cup.

Gao Cheng didn't seem to understand Sima Ziru's sarcasm, but kicked his nose in the face and said with a smile:

"Uncle owes me more than that."

Next, he told Sima Ziru about collecting criminal evidence for himself, and said to Sima Ziru:

"Today, Daorong kowtowed and begged in Shangshutai, willing to suffer on behalf of his father, and his uncle could pretend not to know the inside story, and reconcile with Daorong's father and son from now on."

These words made Sima Ziru angry, and he said angrily:

"In that case, why do you want to explain it to me!"

Gao Cheng said to himself:

"Eliminate the past estrangement between my uncle and Daorong, since my Gao Zihui is behind the scenes, I can not expect to repay my kindness, but I will not do the stupid thing of giving grace without telling me."

Sima Ziru was puzzled:

"Aren't you worried that after I know the inside story, I will be even more harsh?"

Gao Cheng said disapprenosingly:

"Dao Rong is the only son of his uncle, and his uncle took the opportunity to release his previous suspicions with Dao Rong, and since then the father and son have been friendly, or he is still lingering and deepening the resentment between him and Dao Rong, but with his uncle's intentions, if Dao Rong is really killed by his uncle, Cheng will find an heir for him, which can be regarded as worthy of the past friendship."

Sima Ziru was silent when he heard this, and after a long time, he sighed:

"At first, I thought that you were not inferior to King Gao, but now it seems that I still underestimated you."

Gao Cheng was proud in his heart: He Liuhun, the little Gao Cheng, is also worthy of touching himself?

But he still said modestly:

"My father is a hero in the world, how can Cheng look up to him."

Sima Ziru ignored his coy posture and continued:

"Just like this corruption incident, King Gao may use me to establish his authority and warn hundreds of officials, but it is more likely to cover up this matter, so as to show grace, he will never be like the son of the world, put me in prison first, and prove my innocence after the court trial, and investigate the responsibility of the imperial history.

"Then I will write a book to intercede for the imperial history, and take this as an example to give the imperial history the power and encourage them to listen to the wind and do something, and whether they are convicted or not depends on the will of the prince.

"If my guess is correct, the prince will never plant people in the Imperial Tower.

"The person who is hated by the impeached person is only the imperial historian, not the prince who withdrew.

"Those who have been convicted and dismissed from office will be promoted to fill the vacancies by the favored candidates of the prince, and those who are protected by the prince and exonerated should also be grateful for the help of the prince.

"And what did the son of the world give? Even I am grateful to the Son for removing the gap between our father and son.

"This kind of means, King Gao can't compare."

After being told through his thoughts, Gao Cheng's face was calm, he added two glasses of wine, raised his glass and apologized:

"Today's incident is that Cheng has wronged my uncle, and I ask my uncle not to blame."

After Sima Ziru drank all the wine, he said to Gao Cheng:

"The son of the world is this uncle today, the son has accepted it, but the master is different, and please don't torture me again."

Gao Cheng's face changed and asked:

"Uncle, but I still resent Cheng for not discussing it in advance?"

Sima Ziru shook his head and said:

"Don't doubt the son, the son is as he thinks, but King Gao has a son, even if he is unwilling to usurp the country, the foundation of the Great Wei will also fall into the hands of the son, the son will be the supreme in the world in the future, although the son has an old relationship with King Gao, but it is really difficult to be called an uncle.

"If the son of the world remembers the friendship between him and the suffering, and treats him well, the son will be willing to sell this life to the son, and there is no need to be worthy of his uncle."

Gao Cheng smiled and said:

"Although there is no alliance between Cheng and Elimination, there is the righteousness of brotherhood, and it will not harm him."

Sima Ziru saw that his eyes were sincere, and believed that this was Gao Cheng's heartfelt words.

As long as the Gao family father and son are not involved in the power struggle, they are still affectionate.

He also stated:

"Please rest assured, after Ziru gets out of trouble, he will write a book to intercede for Dr. Du and fulfill the heart of the son."

Gao Cheng was not satisfied, and explained:

"For the matter of empowering the imperial history, I also asked Sima Shizhong to write on his behalf."

Sima Ziru couldn't help but look sideways when he heard this, this person was really shameless, and he actually let himself, the bitter master, come forward and ask the Son of Heaven to give the imperial history the power.

But on second thought, there really wasn't a more suitable person than him.

Ninety-nine bows have been worshipped, not bad for this trembling, so this matter has also been answered.

With Sima Ziru's promise, Gao Cheng left the meal and left the prison satisfied.

Before parting, I did not forget to explain to the official Shangshu again, and I must take good care of Sima Ziru in prison.

Duguan Shangshu was well aware of Gao Cheng's attitude, adhered to the principle of civilized law enforcement, and never used torture.

On 16 November, the presiding official of the case, Shangshu, returned to Yuan Shanjian, and after three days of investigation and evidence collection, he found that the impeachment of Sima Ziru by Du Bi, a doctor from Taizhong, was not true.

Yuan Shanjian had the intention to order someone to review, and at this time, Gao Cheng, who had been watching from the sidelines, finally came down in person.

He believes that Sima Ziru, as an important member of the Taiwan Cabinet, should be decent, and since he is found innocent, why should he be tried again and again, and what kind of system is this.

King Xiao Gao spoke, and Yuan Shanjian could only order the release of Sima Ziru and the reinstatement of his official.

According to the rules of the officialdom of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the next step is to calculate the Taizhong doctor Du Bi.

Before the whole process began, Sima Ziru saw a letter to Yuan Shan, and counted Du Bi's actions in the past to support the Yushitai alone, and pleaded for him.

He also talked about the responsibility of the imperial history to picket the lawless, but because of this old example of being convicted for words, the people of the imperial history platform were afraid of the crime and did not dare to say anything, so there was a situation where the officials were corrupted.

believes that the troubled times should be re-enacted, and requests that the imperial history be given the right to do things, and not to be held accountable by words.

Sima Ziru said this, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, causing a strong backlash from non-high party ministers, whether it was a clan or not, it was said that the law of the ancestors could not be changed.

No one is a fool, in the period when the suspension of the year is abolished and promotion is only based on political achievements, what is the political achievements of the imperial history, isn't it picketing lawlessness and impeaching officials?

If you really want to give Yushi such a great authority and relieve them of their worries, you are raising a mad dog, even if this mad dog bites no one else, but the life-saving medicine is in Gao Cheng's hands.

Gao Dang Xungui was bitten, and he recovered after a few days in prison, and non-Gao Dang was bitten, and he had to shed his skin if he didn't die.

In the face of the counterattack of non-Gao Party ministers, Shang Shu ordered Gao Cheng to arrange for the Listening and Wangsi to manipulate public opinion.

On the other hand, to Li Yuanzhong in the service, Gao Longzhi in the service and others:

"Sima Shizhong does not care about old grievances and is dedicated to the public, there are ministers like this, the country's fortunate things, and the monarchs should follow their deeds."

Li Yuanzhong and Gao Longzhi, who got the hint, immediately went to the table to support Sima Ziru.

With these two leaders, the high party and the non-high party faced off in the court over the matter of imperial history.

In the absence of Gao Cheng, the two parties reached a stalemate, and at this time public opinion played a huge role.

Nowadays, there are many reasons for the corruption of officials, and the lack of supervision is one of them.

Under the deliberate guidance of the Listening and Watching Division, scholars and students flocked to the outside of the gate to ask the Son of Heaven for his life, asking not to blame the imperial history with words, and to give him the right to report and do things, so as to facilitate his correction of lawlessness.

And the imperial history of the Imperial History Observatory also expressed their bitterness in the past.

On the one hand, he expressed his support for Sima Ziru's suggestion that he should not blame the imperial history with words, and on the other hand, he also believed that just because of hearsay, the officials should be imprisoned pending trial, which not only lost their identity, but also delayed political affairs.

So he wrote to the Son of Heaven, requesting that while giving the imperial history the right to hear the news, the officials involved could not be dismissed and detained without conclusive evidence.

Moreover, the time limit for the investigation must be clearly defined, and it must not be delayed indefinitely and affect the administration of officials.

The period of five days for the officials of the capital is limited to ten days for the local officials to start counting after the arrival of the envoy in the place.

At the same time, the imperial history can not enjoy unlimited exemption from liability, once there are three pickets in the accumulation of false truths, after the expiration of the three-year period, the place of service will be transferred.

If there are more than three picket failures, the offender will be punished according to the old practice.

After a series of measures to restrict the imperial history, the opposition finally died down.

The concession effect, Xiao Gao Wang understands it too well.

The so-called investigation deadline, if he wants to make a move, he must have heard that the Wangji has found out the evidence, and then secretly handed it over to Yushi to charge.

As for the imperial history, it can't be exempted indefinitely, it's a big deal to replace a group of people to continue to be mad dogs, and the performance evaluation is the flesh and bones hanging in front of them.

As for some imperial historians, after two false pickets, they are unwilling to take the risk of impeachment, and after three years, the evaluation is given a medium, and they are still transferred to the place, and the vacant position is replaced and continues to bite.

Gao Cheng seems to have made a lot of concessions, but when he thinks about it, what did he sacrifice?

On November 23, after several days of debate, Gao Cheng finally made a final decision and implemented a new imperial history system in the Kanto region.

Not long after this controversy subsided, Gao Cheng couldn't help but start to carry out pest control operations in critical positions, and constantly arranged for people to secretly submit letters to the Imperial Historical Observatory or the Imperial Historian's Home to report and expose the illegal affairs of officials.

As for the mastermind behind this operation, after reading the list of criminals, the imperial historians knew that who told those people that there was not a single high character written on their heads.

For a while, the entire Yushitai was busy, and there were old and serious people, and they would also make secret visits, check the charges written in the submission, and then impeach.

If he was a little irritable, he went directly to the letter of impeachment, and a large number of officials were taken to their posts for review.

And the official Shangshu has also become a busy man, this time he does not have the consciousness of civilized law enforcement, of course he cannot use the punishment of in-service officials, but for the rest of the people involved in the case, they have been punished.

Under Miki, why can't he ask for it, after mastering the evidence of the official's crime, the official Shangshu asked the criminal official to be removed from his post and lost his official status, so he was naturally punished.

It can't be said that there is no clean person who is selected by Gao Cheng.

Under the governance of this movement, the list of 121 people compiled by Cui Xian all confessed to their crimes, among which the highest official position was the pastor of Sizhou at the time.

Si Zhou Mu was an unlucky guy, and he was not on the list, but Gao Cheng was anxious to make room for Ke Zhu Hunyuan, so he instructed Listening to Wangsi to investigate secretly, and if he didn't commit anything serious, he would be transferred to the court official.

But after the visit, it was found that this person not only accepted bribes, but also beat slaves and maids, so Gao Cheng added his name.

Every time a convict confessed, the official secretary of the capital would come to ask for instructions on how he should be sentenced.

Gao Cheng set a standard for him, those who kill people will pay for their lives, those who abuse the people will be assigned to the border, and those who are seriously corrupt will be removed from official positions.

As for their families, Gao Cheng, as usual, was sent to Jinyang to be disposed of by Gao Huan.

For those who embezzled a small amount, Gao Cheng also opened his eyes to show his tolerance, just demoting officials and confiscating the proceeds of corruption.

In the list, half of them are people with relatively minor circumstances, witnessing the tragic situation of the other half of the people, especially Si Zhoumu was beheaded outside the gate, but they were only demoted, and they still retained their official status, and they were naturally grateful to Gao Cheng.

Sizhou Mu died for beating a slave maid, and the powerful felt that he died unjustly.

Since ancient times, when the ruler is determined to take action against someone, the crime of beating a slave or maid is enough to punish the crime of death.

And Gao Cheng's behavior also won the favor of Luoyang and even the group of servants and maidservants in Kanto.

But Gao Cheng is not restless, and his behavior of rewarding and punishing as he pleases also arouses his worries.

It cannot be said that the Tuoba Xianbei rulers did not attach importance to the law, "Tianxing Law", "Shenlu Law", "Zhengping Law", "Tai'an Law", "Taihe Law", and even "Zhengshi Law" are all legal codes that once passed throughout the country.

However, it is precisely because there are many errors and omissions in these laws that they will continue to be revised, and with the chaos of the times, the "Zhengshi Law" compiled by Emperor Xuanwu Yuan Ke in the first year has also become a mere formality.

Again, the law became a problem that needed to be addressed.

When Luoyang wantonly impeached and investigated lawlessness, the delegation led by Wen Zisheng finally arrived in Jiankang and was warmly welcomed by the Jiangnan scribes.
