Liu Wenguan was a tough guy, but his nerves gave out as soon as he showed two teeth. He asked and said whatever he asked, and couldn't close his mouth when he opened it. In the end, it was foaming with white foam and he couldn't stop. He was so tortured that he felt like dying.
Han You was surprised, Zhou Yan felt embarrassed, Zhang Zhuo and Guo Peng felt disdainful, and only Wang Hai thought it was normal.
Han You was surprised, because he didn't expect that this corrupt official who allowed his son to bully the people and set his sights on his military relatives would be recruited so quickly.
Zhou Yan felt embarrassed because this little boss was also an official of the Zhou Dynasty, and his bones were as soft as noodles, which was embarrassing.
Zhang Zhuo and Guo Peng are disdainful because these so-called civil servants always talk a lot about the Four Books and Five Classics, and look like they are ready to sacrifice their lives for the country at any time. They are not afraid of heaven and earth, but they are afraid that they cannot sacrifice their lives for righteousness. He bit the coarse cloth with one tooth and started rolling on the ground.
The only person who is awake in the world is Wang Hai. Brother Hai knows these so-called officials and civil servants too well.
For these civil servants, especially those of low rank, their main duties as officials were to teach two things to the people who were "ignorant" and to be the first to retreat when encountering them.
Wang Hai believes that those who study Confucianism are the most spineless in terms of probability.
The world is in chaos, but they can survive until the end.
If the country is destroyed and the species is destroyed, this group of people can survive until the end.
Despite the change of dynasties, they still survived to the end and outlived anyone else. This can be seen through the lens.
Wang Hai captured all the remaining members of the Liu family, including the eldest son Liu Qing, the principal wife, four stewards, a housekeeper, and an accountant.
As Han You said, a family must be neat and tidy to be happy. This is not a kind of family reunion, which is better than a few people in a cell and a few people worrying at home.
Reunion is the most important thing, and Young Master Han likes the beauty of adulthood the most.
Sitting in the courtroom, Han You and Zhou Yan looked at the signed confessions. Most of the contents were related to Wu Yong, the young minister of Honglu Temple.
Zhou Yan's face flushed with excitement: "Sir, the evidence is ironclad, take it."
"Take whoever you want."
Han You put down the paper and said with a wry smile: "First, Wu Yong is an official and is not under the control of the Jingzhao Mansion. Second, he is a Shaoqing. Even if he is arrested, the Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and the Ministry of Personnel will have to consult the Prime Minister and even His Majesty for instructions. Third, he is a Shaoqing. , these evidences can only prove that Wu Yong provided protection for Liu Wenguan’s gray interests or this circle of interests, but he never personally got his hands dirty, he just collected money regularly.”
"But if it weren't for the thief Wu Yong, Liu Wenguan and others wouldn't be so rampant. According to the students, Wu Yong is the culprit."
"I think so too, but it doesn't matter what you and I think. It doesn't matter if we have the evidence."
"What does it mean to have eggs?"
Han You was stunned for a moment and then forcefully explained: "But it's like a eunuch without eggs going to a brothel. It's meaningless."
"I see, sir, your words are always profound."
Zhou Yan was obviously a hot-blooded young man, waving his hands and shouting: "Then how about exposing the evidence of his crime to the public and making the world despise him?"
Han You laughed dumbly. This child was still too naive and thought of things too simply.
If you want to be a small official, you can just rely on the person in charge of the headquarters office, Shangshu, to "self-report".
But if you have a Shaoqing, let alone a Zhengqing, self-reporting or self-destruction will be useless. Shaoqing is already considered a high official in the court.
Even with King You and the emperor's instructions, Han You knew that he still couldn't break the rules. If he wanted to kill Wu Yong, he needed to use the rules, and the only person who could change the rules was the emperor.
If you want the emperor to change the rules, you have to make CEO Dazhou happy. If you want him to be happy, you have to make money first.
"Okay, it's time to get down to business." Han You stretched out and said, "Sign up the troops."
Zhou Yan started to get excited again: "Breaking into Honglu Temple?"
"Why Honglu Temple? Check the taxes."
"A tax inspection?" Zhou Yan was very disappointed. He was not interested in paying taxes. He was only interested in beating people, which was more energy than looking for women.
Han You didn't want to explain so much. He had to preach and teach like the teachers and principals of later generations, teaching by words and deeds. Just teaching by words is not enough. You have to teach by example.
After drinking half a cup of tea, Han You walked out of the courtroom, and Wang Hai also ordered the yamen servants, a total of more than 20 people, holding water and fire sticks.
Just as Han You was about to wave, his father and Wang Shan came back.
Seeing that Han You was engaging in such a big fight, Dad quickly dismounted his horse, saluted Zhou Yan perfunctorily, and began to ask what he wanted to do.
"Don't worry, Dad, my son is not here to cause trouble, to check taxes, collect taxes, or to check accounts or something."
"Then why are you still holding water and fire sticks?"
Han Bairen was a little worried and said worriedly: "It's better to change to a longer sword. What should I do if I encounter a cunning person who doesn't open his eyes?"
Han You didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Dad, you are the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture, a third-rank official in the dynasty. Is it normal for the son of the governor to kill unruly people in the street when he sees them?"
"It makes sense." Han Bairen smiled happily: "You'er has grown up and is very considerate. Okay, then as you said, when you meet the unruly people, write down their appearance and where they live, and after nightfall, ask Wang Shan to kill him. them."
Han You: "..."
Zhang Zhuo and Guo Peng, who were far away, looked deeply at Han Bairen.
They had always heard that there were some unsolved cases in Beijing, and Jingzhao Mansion could not arrest anyone. Could it be...
Han You suddenly remembered that his father had entered the palace, and asked curiously: "Dad, why did Your Majesty summon you to the palace, and what did you say?"
"I didn't say anything." Han Bairen chuckled and said, "Just ask the civil servants in Beijing."
"oh."
Han You didn't think much and asked casually: "Dad, what do you think of His Majesty?"
"Hey." Han Bairen turned around and cupped his hands towards the palace, with a look of admiration on his face: "Your Majesty is so fierce and fierce, with eyes like thunder and lightning. No wonder he is the undefeated general of the previous dynasty. With that momentum, that Majesty, that face, eh, my father is also a veteran on the battlefield. When I see His Majesty, I feel as if I have met an invincible general on the battlefield. He is very majestic. What is even more rare is that His Majesty is both civil and military, rare in the world. It is a blessing for the great Zhou Dynasty. , Dad is lucky, the world is lucky, he-pei."
"No, is Your Majesty that powerful? And..." Han You was stunned: "Dad, why are you spitting?"
Han Bairen scratched his chin: "It was very windy while riding, and there was dirt in my mouth."
"Oh, one more thing, I arrested the entire Liu family, including Liu Wenguan."
Han Bairen's expression changed slightly: "Although Liu Wenguan is a junior official, he is an official of the Ministry of Industry. How come he was also arrested?"
"Dismissed."
Han You wanted to laugh when he mentioned this: "In front of the officials of the Ministry of Industry, he was directly dismissed from his post by the Minister. I have to join him in the palace tomorrow."
"Is there such a thing?" Han Bairen was also happy: "You deserve to die."
"By the way, dad, are you an old acquaintance of Mr. Zhou Zhenghuai?"
"Zhou Zhenghuai?" Han Bairen recalled and shook his head: "Who is Zhou Zhenghuai? This bird's name seems familiar."
"Shang Shu of the Ministry of Industry."
"Minister of the Ministry of Industry?" Han Bairen clapped his hands: "It's the old dog in the grave. What's wrong?"
Han You was dumbfounded: "You are not familiar with him at all?"
"It's OK."
Han Bairen smiled slightly: "It was just two quarrels. The two of us scolded each other a few times. After all, we are officials in the DPRK. We can't see each other without raising our heads. You also know my father's temper. You can tolerate it and it will pass. But this Master Zhou is also an open-minded person. When he goes to court occasionally, he avoids me because he is afraid that he will be angry when he sees me. He is really an open-minded person with an open mind. Dad, I admire him, he-pei."
Han You gave a thumbs up, not knowing what to say for a while.
