Night Emperor

Chapter 518: Star of the times

Views:

When Ye Xiaotian took office as a new official, all the subordinate officials and Xu Shi were present. It was a spectacular scene of rowing government offices. In the solemn and solemn atmosphere, Ye Xiaotian almost thought that he was in Dafu, the central capital, in charge of hundreds of thousands of people. judicial proceedings.

However, after the yamen was arranged, the officials and subordinates withdrew one after another, and the yamen of the punishment hall was still as deserted as ever. There are no children running around in the yard, and there are no old hens clucking showing off after laying eggs. The flat yard is no longer full of juicy greens, and there is only a huge ring stone lying there alone. Ye Xiaotian Sit in the hall, rest your chin with your left hand, then rest your chin with your right hand, and finally rest your chin with both hands...

Ye Xiaotian really had nothing to do, his shoulders were itchy, if there was no book office sitting beside him, Ye Xiaotian would want to get a big head on the official case and practice his arm strength. When he was very bored, Ye Xiaotian suddenly remembered that he still had a few important things to do, so he asked the book office to give him a stack of paper, and the servant studied ink, and started to write something.

A letter to Yingying, a letter to Ning'er, and a letter to the family in the capital... The last letter from the family has been delivered to the family, but so far there is no news. Now he has been promoted again and has become a government official , I believe the persuasion will be greater.

He didn't deal with the mansion in Hu County, he just wanted to leave it for his family to live in. There are at most two days away from here, with beautiful mountains and clear waters, and he has been running Hu County for a long time, there are many subordinates and friends there, and there are people to take care of his family, so it should be a very good place.

Hua Yunfei walked around in and out for a few times, his brows gradually frowned. Although the whole yamen had a new look, everyone was doing nothing. He was worried that the solemn and solemn atmosphere when he lined up in the yamen early in the morning would soon follow. This kind of empty environment disappeared.

In the signing room of Ji Dianjing, Li Qiuchi lightly shook his small fan, and was listening to Huazheng complaining to him, with no trace of frustration on his expression. After listening for a long time, Li Qiuchi chuckled and said: "Li has already understood what Hua Experience said, but you don't need to worry about it!"

Li Qiuchi put away the folding fan and said, "That's right, Tongren Mansion is under the rule of native officials, and most of the people who hold important real power are native officials. We cannot audit their finances in the Criminal Office. Disputes have occurred among the natives. It won't be resolved by us, but in this way, there will be nothing for us in the criminal hall to do?"

Li Qiuchi shook his head and said: "No! Li was engaged in litigation in Guiyang. You should know that Guiyang is the chieftain of the world, but Li still has a place there. Why? There was a dispute between the local people and they went to the chieftain. Judgment, what about the dispute between the chieftains?"

Hua Dalang said: "Naturally, I will ask the big chieftain to make the decision!"

Li Qiuchi stared at him and said, "Is that so? Why hasn't the chaos in Mount Mercury been resolved yet?"

Hua Dalang was startled and said, "This..."

Li Qiuchi stood up abruptly, his face was flushed, and he waved his folding fan excitedly: "It's been a long time since the Tian clan was no longer the master of the two states! The chieftains of the two states are in charge of their own affairs. Over the past century, conflicts have gradually arisen, and the binding power of the chieftain of the two states has also become more and more serious." It is not as good as before, and there will be more and more contradictions and conflicts!

If they don't want to develop into a fierce battle between the two sides, and there is no one with enough prestige to mediate, then there must be a place acceptable to both sides to decide right and wrong! At that time, if they don't look for us, who else can they look for? Who but me! "

Li Qiuchi opened his arms and said excitedly: "This is the worst era, but also the best era!"

Hua Dalang listened to Li Dazhuang's chanting remarks, and thought blankly: "Is there any need to be so excited?"

Li Qiuchi spit and said: "In Tongren City, there are Qinglang Street, Qingping Street, and Taiping Street. Merchants gather in the three streets and six alleys. Most of them are Han Chinese. Half of the population in Tongren City is Han. When they have disputes How should it be

In the past, it was precisely because Tuiguan Yu himself was a tushe, and he never regarded himself as a Tuiguan who governed the people, and he had no intention of being the master of the people. Over time, the people also lost confidence in the government's upholding justice. The results of today's results in my Criminal Office's yamen have to be right and wrong, and it is really impossible to do it! "

Li Qiuchi looked at Hua Dalang with piercing eyes: "The first step is to let the Han people in Tongren City feel that we can make decisions for them. Don't the Han people and the people of other ethnic groups have no contact with each other? There are marriages, There are business, employment, and cooperation, all kinds of relationships are intertwined, first grasp these Han people, and through them, we can grab more business!"

"Ah! No, I mean, more lawsuits can be accepted! Starting from three streets and six alleys, the judicial power of Tongren City and the entire Tongren Mansion will be in our hands. I am so busy that I forget to sleep and eat, and it is impossible to think about being as leisurely as I am now!"

Hua Jing was seduced by the beautiful blueprint drawn by Li Qiuchi, his eyes shone brightly, but after thinking about it, he said worriedly: "Is it really as Mr. said? I think Mr. Tuiguan is just waiting for customers to come to the door... Ah! No, I It means that Mr. Tuiguan is just waiting for the lawsuit to come to his door, and if he doesn't take the initiative to investigate, I'm afraid... "

This flower experience is really poor and crazy, and Li Qiuchi has always made money by helping people litigate, so although the two of them keep talking about the court's laws and government authority, they actually regard this pushing the government office as a business in their hearts Done.

Li Qiuchi smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, what I said to you yesterday was all done by Tuiguan in Hu County. You can know the truth as soon as you inquire about it. Just think about it, people like Tuiguan can't bear it." Can I live in loneliness? My family, Dong Weng, either doesn’t make a move, or if he does, he will be shocked, and now he is keeping a low profile, just waiting for a better opportunity, as the saying goes: three years of silence, a blockbuster!"

At first Hua Jing was elated, but when he heard the words "three years without singing", he said in surprise: "Three years? Sir, don't be kidding, there are three years in life, I can't wait, I really can't wait! "

Li Qiuchi laughed loudly, and said: "Silence for three years is just quoting an allusion. Don't worry, with my Dong Weng's temper, he can't stand three days of desertion."

Li Qiuchi has already wandered around Zhang Bin, the governor of the criminal hall, the official Yang Shenming of the Zhaomo Institute, Ren Yibing, the prison officer, and Jiang Xiaobai, the criminal name experience, and now he is talking eloquently when he comes to Hua Dalang Fortunately, he is used to speaking as a litigator, so his mouth doesn't hurt and his throat doesn't hurt, and he doesn't even need to drink saliva.

Li Qiuchi gave Hua Jing a lot of energy and left the signing room. Just as he came out, he saw Hua Yunfei walking over. Hua Yunfei frowned, and when he saw Li's experience, he said worriedly: "Mr. Li, this criminal hall is really a veritable Qingshui Yamen, and there is nothing wrong with the huge Tongren Mansion for so long."

Although Hua Yunfei has prejudices against Li Qiuchi, he also knows that he can only tell Li Qiuchi about these things, and there is really nothing to discuss with Lao Mao. Days to Die should be very satisfying.

Thinking of this, Hua Yunfei turned his head and glanced at the gate. Mao Wenzhi found a creaking rattan chair from nowhere, and was lying on the doorway like a gatekeeper, dozing off.

Li Qiuchi smiled and said: "Don't worry, Dong Weng has just taken office. If our criminal court is full of people immediately, it will be false. I have ordered people to post notices of Ye Tui's appointment in various places in the city. There must be someone There will be a lawsuit."

There is another sentence that Li Qiuchi didn't say. It would take too long to let the people rebuild their confidence in the Yamen, and wait for some people to go to court when they are desperate, so as to revive the reputation of Tongren Criminal Hall. Those who fight for the day and night, how can he afford to wait.

So he had already arranged for a backup. Once the people just waited and watched, and no one cared about the criminal hall for more than two days after it opened, he would take the initiative to arrange people to come to the Yamen to file a lawsuit, so as to build confidence and set an example for other people. You can say that he is fishing, but his bait is not fake, it is a real accumulated case that he has worked so hard to find out, but he is so busy now that he has no time to go to the door to persuade the lawsuit, otherwise with his three He has a perfect tongue, but he doesn't believe that the people who are full of grievances can withstand his flickering.

In addition, although the so-called "the people don't raise officials and don't investigate" is an official attitude pursued by most officials, it is actually not like this. , he also has the right to investigate.

For example, pushing officials has the power to check the atmosphere. According to the system of superiority and inferiority stipulated by Emperor Taizu, people of different identities have different standards for weddings, funerals, weddings, and birthdays. There are more and more, but the status is not enough but it is too extravagant and extravagant, the Lord Tuiguan has the right to deal with you.

Therefore, Li Dazhuang planned that if the situation could not be resolved as soon as possible, and no one took the initiative to file a lawsuit, he would go wandering around the city, and when he saw someone marrying a wife whose specifications exceeded the proper guard of honor, he would arrest the newlyweds and the bride into the bridal chamber ;

Seeing that someone held a funeral and dressed the dead in unconventional clothes, they took the living and the dead into the prison for boarding; seeing someone held a birthday banquet that exceeded the specifications, they invited the old birthday star to eat birthday peaches in the yamen. No one can stop a litigator from striving for improvement, no one!

After Ye Xiaotian finished writing the family letter and the love letter to Yingying to announce the good news, he wrote to Ning'er. Although it is said that it is impossible for the Zhan family and the Guoji family to marry again, since the Zhan family has the idea of marrying a daughter, there is no guarantee that they will not have other plans. He still needs to ask Ning'er about these things, and make preparations early.

Originally, he is very close to Ning'er now, but the magistrate's office is much stricter than the magistrate's office after all, and Fatty Zhang is not comparable to a puppet county magistrate like Hua Qingfeng. He asked for a long vacation just after taking office. Can't come down.

In addition, the relationship between Shiqian Mansion and Tongren Mansion is very tense now, and it would be too ostentatious for him to go to Shiqian Mansion to do business in a big way as an official of Tongren Mansion. In view of this, Ye Xiaocai chose to write a letter. The letter was written and just sealed when suddenly a slave came in to report: "Master, there is a visitor!"
