Chapter 389: Revision of the Law
In the morning, there was a lot of controversy in the court.
Most of the laws they use now are inherited by Nan Chen, first, for convenience, and second, they can't find a better law for a while.
"The law formulated by Nan Chen was not what it is now, it was slowly revised to the appearance we see today, but it is obvious that it does not apply to our Da'an."
Bai Yunliang stood in front and talked eloquently to Chang Yuan on the dragon chair.
"At the beginning of Da'an, there were wars everywhere, and there were a large number of wandering people, if it was not strict, there would be chaos, and the ministers asked one person to bear the guilt and one person to sit together! Otherwise, there would be no shortage of things today! ”
After saying that, he bowed and retreated.
As for Nan Chen's law, Ning Changrong has only recently begun to study.
Originally, it was one person who committed the crime and one person was responsible for it, and the family would not be implicated, but now the controversy stems from an espionage case that happened not long ago.
The spy was sent by Liu Jianxing, and the other party settled in Jingzhou in the name of taking refuge with relatives.
After settling down, he searched everywhere for the secret workshop that had been relocated from Taoyuan Village.
Ma Honglin took the gunpowder in the south and made an earth-shattering sound, and the fool also knew that it was not difficult to make gunpowder in unlimited quantities, so everyone became very jealous and sent many people over to find the gunpowder formula.
They knew that gunpowder was important, and Chang Yuan knew even more that they had already sealed the matter and couldn't find out anything at all.
Although nothing has been detected, their whereabouts have been revealed.
And the relatives of the family that the spy had defected to also found out, and they didn't know it at all.
It was because of this incident that this discussion was derived.
Some people felt that although the other party was a relative of the spy, he did not know anything about the matter, nor did he help the spy to carry out any acts to help steal secrets, so he should not be implicated.
And the group led by Bai Yunliang felt that they should be punished heavily.
Ning Changrong stood there and didn't say anything, the spy went into the city to join his relatives, but in fact, his guarantor was that relative.
If something happens to the person you protect, you will definitely be punished.
But there are still a small number of people who argue on the basis of reason, and feel that they should not be involved in that group of relatives.
And the reason why these people work so hard is because the relative who was implicated was a general in the army.
If it is an ordinary person, it is definitely not worth discussing in the court.
After arguing for a morning, nothing was discussed, the public said that the public was reasonable, and the mother-in-law said that the mother-in-law was reasonable.
Bai Yunliang also took advantage of this to play, wanting to pry the law and show his personal power.
Ning Changrong was so hungry that he was dizzy, if he stood behind, he could still find a corner to secretly eat some dry food, but now he was standing under Chang Yuan's nose, and there was nowhere to hide if he wanted to steal food.
Once it comes to matters in the army, Chang Yuan will be very cautious, and at the moment, neither side can convince the other, so Chang Yuan can only announce a temporary withdrawal from the dynasty.
"Lord Ning comes with me."
Hearing this, many people looked at Ning Changrong's avatar with envy.
Bai Yunliang, on the other hand, glanced at Ning Changrong vaguely.
Ning Changrong was speechless, he was so hungry that his stomach shook the sky, why did he have to stay and work overtime.
When he followed Evergreen to the place, he found that the food was already on the table.
Seeing his surprised appearance, Chang Yuan smiled and said, "Why are you so surprised, I am not the black-hearted landlord who only knows how to send and does not give food, I will discuss it after eating." ”
If it was normal, Ning Changrong would have been behaving and excused himself repeatedly, but today he was too hungry.
didn't care about the people opposite at all, and in the surprised eyes of the eunuchs and palace maids, they picked up the chopsticks and made them.
It wasn't until I felt full that I touched my stomach and put down my chopsticks.
"Your Majesty, forgive me, the minister is really hungry." Usually I should have left work a long time ago, but today I just discussed it for half an hour.
Chang Yuan saw that the other party ate so deliciously, and he couldn't help but eat a little more.
"I know you're hungry, and I hear your stomach pounding when I sit in front of me." Chang Yuan said with a smile.
The eunuch palace maid could only sigh again, Lord Ning was really in the emperor's heart.
Then the two went to the study.
Chang Yuan sat on the dragon chair and pointed to the position below, asking Ning Changrong to sit down.
"Do you know what I'm looking for you for?"
Ning Changrong thought for a moment and replied, "Your Majesty wants to ask about the spy in the courtier, right?" ”
"Tell me, what do you think?" Chang Yuan felt that Ning Changrong was good at everything, but he was too cautious, and generally did not mix in things that were too controversial like this.
Ning Changrong thought about it, it was not easy to say this, it was easy to offend people if he said it, and said cautiously: "The minister doesn't have any ideas about this matter." ”
"No, you have to tell me today." Chang Yuan said toughly.
"Don't worry about offending people, I have you to support you, what are you afraid of?" He added.
Ning Changrong saw that he couldn't hide, so he reluctantly arched his hand and said, "Your Majesty, since you know what the minister is thinking, you still deliberately embarrass the minister." ”
After thinking about it, he said, "Now that we are following Nan Chen's law, it stands to reason that we should indeed act according to the law, although there is no joint sitting system, but General Zhu's wife did guarantee the spy, and it stands to reason that she should be implicated." However, "
Ning Changrong said again:
"General Zhu's wife really doesn't know anything about this, General Zhu has made military exploits in the army, and now he is still fighting on the front line, if he deals with his family, I am afraid that General Zhu will think more, and it may affect the war ahead."
Chang Yuan tapped the table lightly with his fingers, "So your opinion is not to deal with it and not to implicate it?" ”
Ning Changrong shook his head, "Since you are willing to guarantee the other party, you must take responsibility, even if you don't know it, it is impossible to say that you are not responsible." ”
Chang Yuan was a little annoyed: "What's the difference between what you said for a long time and what you didn't say?" ”
Ning Changrong smiled and said, "The minister is also entangled, and the minister has thought of so much." ”
Chang Yuan took a deep breath and pointed to the door, "Get out." ”
Ning Changrong immediately bowed and went out.
Chang Yuan treats the generals in the army very favorably, in addition to his deep relationship with the generals in the army, there is also the reason why he needs to rely on them now.
……
Ning Changrong originally thought that this matter would be resolved in two or three days, but he didn't expect that in the end, it would be to the extent that he really wanted to revise the law.
When he heard that Chang Yuan was going to let him preside over the revision of the law, Ning Changrong was stunned.
"Your Majesty, your minister, have you never done this?" He subconsciously wanted to refuse.
Chang Yuan said unhappily: "I have never been an emperor, everyone has to learn, okay, don't shirk, as the right servant of the dignified Shangshu, the old god is in the court all day long, and I don't know what is going on in my head, I ordered you to come up with a charter every month, if you can't take it out, I will punish you." ”
The two Shangshu, one is too greedy, and the other is too easy-going, if the two of them are combined, Chang Yuan will not have such a headache.
Ning Changrong took the errand with a bitter face.
Due to the front-line battles, and General Zhu's family really didn't know anything about it, Chang Yuan still didn't punish their family in the end, but the results of General Zhu's front-line operations were also written off.
