Northern Song Dynasty Justice

Chapter 537

Chapter 537

"Chairman Zhang, free delivery!"

"Mr. Su, go slowly."

Zhang Fei stopped in front of the door, looked at Su Zhe's leaving back, and couldn't help laughing, "This is really a bold man of skill, I never thought that he would think of using decrees to force the imperial court to carry out reforms."

Having said that, he frowned, "But the risk of doing this is too great, I dare not play with you like this."

After muttering, he turned and went back.

When I came to the lake, I saw the two beautiful wives sitting in the small pavilion, so I walked over quietly, stood on tiptoe, and looked inside. I saw a pile of copywriting on the stone table in the pavilion, and I couldn't help but With a smile, he quietly came to Xu Zhiqian's back, bent down, and quickly kissed her on the cheek.

"ah!"

Immediately, Xu Zhiqian was startled, she turned her head to see Zhang Fei, and immediately gave him a vicious roll of the eyes, "You are already the chief judge, but you are still so dishonest, if people see it, it will be bad for your prestige."

"I'm just like this style. If I don't like it, they can change people! Who cares about being the chief judge."

Zhang Fei snorted softly, and said again: "You workaholic, you just don't think about food and drink, and you even dragged your wife to accompany you crazy."

Gao Wenyin hurriedly said: "It has nothing to do with Zhiqian, it's because I have nothing to do, so I came here to help Zhiqian tidy up."

"is it?"

Zhang Fei smiled, sat down, took a look at the copy on the table, and it was indeed the law on corruption in military expenditures and the related military expenditure management system.

Gao Wenyin knew she couldn't hide it, she couldn't help biting her red lips, and lowered her head guiltily.

For this case, she does have a different concern, because she has experienced this kind of thing before and knows the pain and sorrow, so she also wants to contribute.

Xu Zhiqian knew that Zhang Fei didn't like to read these things very well, so she wanted to help him sort out the relevant copywriting, which was what they had done in cooperation before.

That's why Zhang Fei appointed Xu Zhiqian to be his chief bookkeeper. In this work, the cooperation is very close.

Zhang Fei glanced at them, suddenly he was very grateful and said: "With a good wife like this, what more can a husband ask for!"

"I'm just doing my job as master."

Xu Zhiqian pouted arrogantly, and asked again: "That's right! I heard that Mr. Su Xiao is here."

Zhang Fei nodded.

Xu Zhiqian said: "But here to sue?"

"no!"

Zhang Fei shook his head, and then said: "But it's more terrifying than this."

"More terrifying?"

Xu Zhiqian hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"

Gao Wenyin opened her big watery eyes and looked at Zhang Fei nervously.

Zhang Fei would never hide anything from them, so he told the two daughters about Su Zhe's plan.

A look of joy flashed in Xu Zhiqian's eyes, but seeing Zhang Fei's expression of doubt, she asked, "Did you agree?"

Undoubtedly, she definitely wanted to seek justice for Chen Guang, but she also knew how deep she was. She used to do her best to help others, such as Li Si. At the beginning, she only helped Li Si find a temple and settle him down. She didn't foolishly go to Chen Yuteng to settle accounts, she usually wouldn't cause extra trouble for Xu Zun.

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "No."

Xu Zhiqian pursed her mouth in disappointment, and asked again: "Why?"

"Because my purpose is different from his, Mr. Su Xiao."

Zhang Fei said: "He thinks about eradicating the country's bad governance, rather than putting the public prosecutor's law first, so he dares to make such a gamble, but my goal is the public prosecutor's law.

At this moment, if a judgment is finally rejected by the imperial court, then everyone will think that the decree is always higher than the decree, and this will also greatly damage the authority of our imperial court.

Therefore. "

He shrugged slightly, "It's impossible for me to agree to his request."

Xu Zhiqian said: "But the judicial reform is ultimately aimed at eliminating bad governance."

"Wrong!" Zhang Fei laughed and said, "Judicial reform is only for others to clear up the bad government. The public security bureau does not have this power."

Xu Zhiqian immediately said: "Therefore Mr. Su Xiao's thinking is not wrong, he also wants to use the decree to force the court to eliminate the bad government."

Zhang Fei said helplessly: "I didn't say he was at fault, I just think the risk is too high, according to his idea, we should first make this case bigger, attract more people to file a lawsuit, and then decide that the government should give For the huge amount of compensation, the other party will definitely put pressure on the court with financial problems, so that the court will realize the problem and force the court to make changes. But..."

He shook his head and said: "It's not that the court is unaware of these issues, and there have been discussions, but in the end no changes have been made. That is to say, the officials and those prime ministers still have many concerns in their hearts. It is entirely possible that they , to dismiss our final judgment.

Once the court rejects it, it will make us lose more than we gain.Not only can it not help Chen Guang, but it may prevent Chen Guang from having more opportunities to appeal, and make those corrupt officials more confident. "

After Xu Zhiqian listened, she didn't say much anymore, she just looked at Gao Wenyin depressedly.

Soon after nightfall.

Xu Zhiqian, who had just taken a bath, was wearing a jade-white satin pajamas, revealing her snow-white, slender jade neck, adding a touch of nobility to her glamorous beauty.

When I came to the bedroom, I saw Zhang Fei half lying on the big bench again, with his legs crossed, his bare toes swaying slightly, and holding a copy in his hand, looking very engrossed.

She stepped forward and snatched the copy from Zhang Fei's hand, "Aren't you afraid of blinding yourself?"

Zhang Fei glanced at her, and said in surprise, "You workaholic, you have the nerve to talk about me."

Xu Zhiqian said seriously: "If it weren't for special circumstances, I would try my best to finish things during the day, and I wouldn't lie down like you and watch. The candlelight is so far away from you, can I see clearly?"

Zhang Fei didn't know how to argue, so he stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, and said with a smile, "I'm done taking a shower."

Xu Zhiqian patted his mischievous big hand lightly, but let him go, she glanced at the copywriter from the corner of her eye, and turned her beautiful eyes, "Didn't you say that Mr. Su Xiao's method is too risky, so you can't do it like this?" , then why did you watch it so engrossed just now?"

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "So if you can reduce the risk, then you can do it."

Xu Zhiqian said expectantly: "Then you can think of a way."

Zhang Fei hooked his fingers towards the copywriting in her hand.

Subconsciously, Xu Zhiqian wanted to hand over the copy to Zhang Fei, but on second thought, no, if I give it to him, then...wouldn't it appear that I am hypocritical.She still suppressed her curiosity, and said solemnly: "Forget it! Let's watch it tomorrow. You must pay attention to rest."

Didn't Zhang Fei know her character? Seeing her tangled expression, he immediately couldn't hold back his laughter, and hugged her, "You little girl."

Just kissed it.!

An hour later.

Xu Zhiqian lay on Zhang Fei's body, the thin silk quilt couldn't withstand the tenderness of the jade back, and it slid down a little, revealing her sexy shoulders.

"Zhang San, have you thought of a way?"

"Why don't we explain it later?"

"Just chatting, it's okay now anyway."

Xu Zhiqian pouted her red lips and said delicately.

"Ok."

Zhang Fei nodded, "Seeing how cooperative you were just now, I'll tell you about it."

Xu Zhiqian blushed immediately, she was so charming that she was about to drop, she spat, and said, "Say it soon."

Zhang Fei bent his arm on the pillow, and gently stroked Xu Zhiqian with the other, "Do you still remember that you once told me that although the military expenditure is fixed, the coins only account for a small amount, and they are usually issued for whatever is in the warehouse?" , and then convert it into an equivalent currency value.”

Xu Zhiqian asked curiously, "What does this have to do with the risk you mentioned earlier?"

"Don't worry, just listen to me."

Zhang Fei glanced at her with a smile, and continued: "You also said that there are special dentists who do this, and exchange these goods into money and food."

Have I ever said this?It seems to have been said.Xu Zhiqian herself couldn't remember much, because this was just a very inconspicuous link in the middle, and her eyes became more confused. She didn't understand why Zhang Fei valued this.

I also heard Zhang Fei say: "And I just read the document that you sorted out, and found that the military salary stipulated by the imperial court is about [-] guan per year for the imperial army, and about [-] guan for the box soldiers, and the proportion of currency is not high. According to statistics, the soldiers of the imperial army get twelve guans at most every year, the ordinary ones get seven or eight guans, and the worst soldiers get five or six guans every year.

The proportion is about one-fifth. "

Xu Zhiqian nodded, but said, "I still don't understand what you mean."

Zhang Fei said with a smile: "According to what Mr. Su Xiao said, regarding disarmament, there are roughly two factions in the DPRK and China, Wen Gong and Sima Bachelor are in favor of disarmament.

Officials, Wang Xueshi, and Chen Shumi did not approve of it.Therefore, we have to find a way to convince the officials and Wang Xueshi first, so that the court will support my judgment.

The reasons for their reluctance to disarm can be roughly divided into two categories. One is their desire to make a difference at the border, and disarmament is obviously not in line with their ideas.

The second is the worry that disarmament will cause these laid-off soldiers to gather as thieves. "

Xu Zhiqian said: "Therefore, we need to prescribe the right medicine and convince them."

"of course not."

Zhang Fei shook his head and said, "It's our turn to prescribe the right medicine. I'm afraid Wen Gong and the others have already explained it thoroughly. We have to throw out a bigger temptation to affect the entire balance."

"An even greater temptation?"

"good."

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "It's the military expenditure issue we mentioned just now. The current structure of military expenditure seems to be a lot, but in fact it makes the soldiers miserable, because as long as it involves conversion issues, it will inevitably cause huge losses to the common people. loss.

Since Yaren can exchange those goods into money and food, why not the court directly open a quality shop, and then cooperate with Wang Xueshi's uniform transfer method to convert these goods into money and food, and the soldiers themselves can collect them.

In this way, it is also possible to put an end to some situations of empty pay. "

In fact, at present, the Song Dynasty has relatively little empty pay, but it is increasing.

"The more important thing is." Zhang Fei said with a smile: "Xueshi Wang is preparing for the Green Crop Law. The so-called Green Crop Law is to lend money to the people, so it needs capital and a financial institution to do these things. Not only that, according to your Judging from the written documents, the current management of military expenditures is simply a mess.

Even the materials needed for the repair of local boats in the third division must be recorded, which will inevitably make the accounts messy and disorderly, and give more convenience to those corrupt officials.

In fact, the central government only needs to control money, grain, cloth, salt, tea, horses, and other related finances, such as firewood, post materials, repairs, bamboo, wood, chariots and horses. These can be handed over to local finance, so they can also be included in the Among them, combined with the method of equalization and the method of young crops, a super-large financial institution can be formed in this way, which is enough to impress Xueshi Wang and make him support Mr. Su Xiao's plan, and use my judgment to force the imperial court to make reforms , in order to facilitate their own new law.

The public security law and the new law all belong to the core interests of the officials, and disarmament can reduce the financial burden. With many interests, the officials are bound to be tempted. "

Only then did Xu Zhiqian fully understand, and suddenly asked: "Then how do we arrange those laid-off soldiers?"

Zhang Fei said: "I haven't thought about this point, but to support this huge financial institution, a lot of manpower is needed, and the police station also needs a lot of manpower, so it should be able to digest most of it."
