408 New Deal

Dang Mengyu came back to her senses, glanced at the black wooden plate, and said coldly, "What about the will of the king? Bring it!"

The head of the chamberlain lowered his eyes and said, "The king means that the power is left to the lady, please do it."

Dang Meng held his breath for a moment, and said slowly: "If the king does not come in person, my party Meng will never die."

"The king has already said that he doesn't want to hear anything about Niangniang again." The chamberlain replied respectfully.

"Has the king hated me so much?" Her tone was sad, and she pleaded, "Shall I see my son again?"

"The king has handed over the eldest son to the palace to raise, so you don't have to do anything again. Having a biological mother like you has disgraced the eldest son, how long do you want to drag your son down?" Bo Ji said lightly.

Dang Meng's clothes were already full of tears, and after a while, she didn't cry anymore, her cheeks dried up with tears, she only looked up to the sky and laughed, her body trembled violently: "I hate it so much—I don't deserve it if I don't have a good background like you?" Who can you trust in this world! It's unreliable, it's unreliable—"

Before the words fell, only a "bang" sound was heard, and warm blood splashed on Boji's face, and Wu Kui protected her and quickly closed her eyes and took two steps back. When he opened his eyes again, Dang Mengyu's head was hitting the wall, and the whole person fell to the ground softly. The snow-white wall was dripping with bright red and bloodstained, like a bright red and dazzling peach blossom.

Becky's face was covered with a little blood on her clothes, and her whole heart seemed to be empty, and she couldn't move for a long time.

There was silence in the room, a silence like death.

Bo Ji subconsciously wiped his face and clothes with a silk handkerchief, and suddenly heard a "squeak" sound, and a fat gray mouse stared at him, and quickly ran over Dang Meng's body.

She only felt scared, choked up, and quickly turned and went out. Wu Kui chased after her: "Princess......" She pointed to the attendants who followed her.

Bo Ji reluctantly calmed down and said, "The second concubine herself was killed, you can go back and report to the king."

The chief chamberlain replied, "Yes. Wait for the minions to clean up."

Bo Ji nodded, and helped Wu Kui slowly out of the summer palace. The air was cold, there was a cold pain in the nose, and the hands and feet were cold. Dang Meng is pregnant, she should be happy, shouldn't she? But she didn't feel like that, only sadness and sadness. Is she the winner? It seems to be, and it doesn't seem to be.

She raised her eyes and stared, the sky was about to dusk, and the dark old trees were withered and withered, twisted into a desolate posture, and the remnants of the sun were like blood.

"Princess......" Wu Kui stopped talking.

Unexpectedly, Bo Ji spoke first, "Sister, do you know? The way I am now is exactly what I hated the most. You don't know, because my biological mother was martyred, I was separated from my brother Wang for several years. But just now I realized that it was my biological mother's fault, that she should not have had evil thoughts and killed the first queen, and finally suffered retribution. Brother Wang is the most innocent, but I ......."

"It's all such an old thing, why does the princess want to mention it again?" Wu Kui was puzzled.

"Sister," Bo Ji suddenly grabbed Wu Kui's hand, "After the autumn, the general will accompany me to Luoyi to visit Brother Wang, you can go with you!" It's been a few years, and you must have been thinking about Brother Wang, right?"

Wu Kui's eyes widened in surprise, she and Ji Hu got acquainted with Chaoge except for her and the top management of the Nanlin Society, no one else knew, how did Bo Ji know?

Bo Ji Waner smiled: "After all, I am the princess of the Zhou family, and there are many people in the palace, as long as I bother to inquire, there is nothing I can't know."

"That's up to the princess." Wu Kui bowed deeply.

"Princess, why do you want to match Wu Kui and the king?" Before going to bed at night, the personal maid asked Bo Ji very puzzled: "Now that the Dang clan is dead, with the appearance of Wu Kui, why not go to the king to consolidate the status of the princess?" After all, the concubines brought by the princess don't seem to be very worthy of the king's heart."

"I really take Wu Kui as my sister, how can I treat her as a plaything, use it when I can use it, and discard it when I can't use it. Besides, if two daughters serve a husband together, even sisters will have a dislike, how can you bear it? Besides, Wu Kui is not an ordinary woman who is greedy for vanity, the king ......" she snorted coldly: "Where is worthy of her? also

Only my brother is a good match." Five

"The princess said yes, but it's just a pity......," the maid sighed.

"What's the pity? In the final analysis, a married girl still has to rely on her mother's father and brother to support the scene, and I am no exception."

"Yes. The king will be overjoyed to see the princess."

Ji Hu's eastern tour on the agenda dragged from spring to autumn, which was really helpless. After the waterlogging canal was completed, the new king's new policy was quietly activated. It's so complicated that I can't start the journey.

The first step of the New Deal is to start with the most uncontroversial corrections.

Those who correct the law will correct the errors in the text of the law. The decrees of the ancient Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties were only kept in the government and were not disclosed to the common people. In terms of the form of preservation, whether it is the royal family or the princes, as well as the subordinate official offices, the legal code is kept together with other volumes, and there is no special official and special treasury to preserve.

At that time, social activities were still largely regulated by traditional customs and morals, with few laws and regulations, and extremely simple provisions, which were easy for officials to memorize and preserve. If there is a dispute, lawsuit, or reward or punishment, the officials say that the law is what it is, and the common people have no way of knowing it. In such a situation, the officials completely determine the content of the law and the outcome of its enforcement. This so-called "rule of man" is also.

The reason why the people of the Great Zhou Dynasty highly respect the sages of the royal road lies in the reality of this kind of human rule.

However, this kind of rule of law, which relied on the quality and ability of officials, reached the era of King Li, and various ills began to appear. Due to the limitations of ancient means of transmission, blocking paths, etc., it is really difficult and difficult to ensure that the decree can still be as original before it is copied and collected in the treasury. The crux of the matter is that if there is an error in the text of the government's decrees, whether the officials make mistakes unintentionally, negligently forget, or deliberately misinterpret them, correct their mistakes with the people, and spread false information, it is difficult to ensure that all kinds of malpractices will not arise, resulting in confusion in law enforcement, and the effectiveness of the laws and regulations will inevitably be greatly reduced.

As the first correction of the New Deal, Ji Hu's practical operation is three steps: the first step is to comprehensively calibrate the text of the laws and regulations of each official office; The second step is to punish legal officials who neglect their duties in accordance with the law; The third step is to rectify the judicial officials at all levels, punish the guilty, eliminate the deaf, fill the vacancies, and rebuild the system of effective law enforcement officials at all levels.

These three steps are led by Rongyi. Rong Yi has been tempered for a long time, and has always handled the complicated and multi-headed affairs in a good way, and although the correction of the law involves the entire Wangji official office, it is deployed in an orderly manner. The calibration began with the text of the decree in the royal treasury, which lasted two months, and all matters of the law were concluded.

At the same time as the correction of the law, another major policy presided over by Zhao Gonghu - correcting grievances and pardoning criminals.

The reason why Gonghu is to be in charge is actually because this matter involves a wide range of issues, and only Zhao Bohu, who has been in charge of government affairs for many years, can make all parties obey. Because of law enforcement, according to the principle of "Zhou Li" "not punishing doctors, not courtesy to people", he has always been open to the royal nobles, and nine times out of ten the wrongdoers are commoners. If the prison is unjustly settled, it will inevitably lead to the loss of prisoners and hard labor in the noble fiefdoms. The injustice must be redressed, but the foundation of the Zhou royal family is untouchable. The priorities in this are only those who can grasp it.

At this time, Zhao Bohu showed his extraordinary ability to balance the temple. One unjust prison after another has been redressed, one unjust offender after another has returned to his hometown, and one case after another has been resolved...... And those nobles who deceived the people were also punished by either demoting the lord or reducing the title, or fining the land and confiscating the money, and half of the confiscated money went to the treasury and half was compensated to the wrongdoer. In this way, the people of the government and the opposition really felt the nourishment of the new policy, and unexpectedly developed a heartfelt admiration for the new policy of the young emperor and the new minister.

Ran Jihu himself was not idle, he personally took over the third of the New Deal - Ming Xiu Meritorious Heroes, praising flesh and blood.

This seemingly good deed that only attracts people's liking, but it is extremely difficult to grasp the proportion, and the outcome is often unpredictable.

The so-called meritorious heroes of Ming cultivation are to re-highlight and praise the heroes who suffered unfair punishment from their ancestors. The so-called praise of flesh and blood is to properly comfort and settle the grievances of the royal family's relatives. In terms of content, these two events are actually to clean up the wrongful convictions at the highest level in order to reunite the royal family and the tribes descended from the powerful ministers.

In the beginning of autumn that year, Zhou Li Wang Jihu personally presided over the new policy of summoning Gonghu and Rongyi to one left and one right, which had already achieved initial results. The progress of the two matters of rectifying the law and redressing grievances has been generally smooth, and only a few dozen difficult cases have to be discussed at the court meeting.

In addition, Ji Hu has largely closed the most difficult case of the meritorious royal family, and after consulting with all parties, it has been made public to the government and the opposition, and no one is dissatisfied. In this way, he felt that his tense heart was greatly relieved.

According to Ji Hu's original idea, if Feng Ho Wang Ji's new policy is implemented smoothly, it will be extended to the Chengzhou area of Luoyi, the eastern capital, and then call on the princes of the world to come to the details. Now that this plan is feasible, it is time to prepare for the departure for Luoyi's eastern tour.

The royal city of Hokyo is once again busy and in turmoil......

In the early morning of autumn, the bronze chariot of the Hou Hou Yufang entered the E's temple.

After the monarch and the minister worshiped in the main hall, Taizhu walked forward calmly and led the monarch and the ministers into the divination room in the pine and cypress on foot. In the third dynasty of the Xia and Shang dynasties, the functional procedures of divination in various countries were generally the work of the three Tais: the diviner who directly divined belonged to the Taizhu Mansion, but the location of the state divination was in the main hall of the Taimiao Temple or Zongmiao, and the Taishi Ling had to be present to record the history; The divination must be permanently kept in the divination room under the control of the diviner for the discretion of the monarch and the relevant ministers.

One thing and three divisions, it can be seen that the ancients respected divination.

The morning sun is already in the middle of the day, but the main hall of the divination room is dark. A tall wooden cabinet filled with all kinds of cloth materials surrounds the wall, and a six-foot-high bronze tripod incense in the middle is endless.
