Chapter 285 Memorial
ps: There are no more saved manuscripts. I can only publish 2,000 words. It will be fine after this month.
During the Song Dynasty, there were continuous wars, the national treasury was insufficient, and the salary of officials was not as high as it was later, so corruption and bribery also occurred from time to time. It is said that in troubled times, heavy codes are used, so the number of death penalty cases is relatively large. There are many cases almost every day
Death penalty cases are reported. And these cases have a large amount of dossier materials that need to be reviewed one by one. Every time at this time, Zhao Guangyi feels very bored, but he can't stop reading, so he can only gather his energy and continue to read the dossier.
However, at this time, all his thoughts were on Mrs. Huarui, and he didn't even have the thought to read simple memorials, let alone flip through these boring files. So, after reading for a long time, he didn't see anything interesting, and he was upset.
Confused, he simply threw the file aside, took out the mobile phone given by Leng Yi, and admired Mrs. Huarui's jade photo.
Seeing this, he immediately became energetic, his eyes lit up, and he almost drooled.
While he was fascinated by what he was watching, finally, the eunuch outside the door came in and reported: "Report to the official family, Leng Yu has brought it back, asking to see the official family."
Zhao Guangyi quickly put his cell phone into his arms, stood up and said, "Please!" His heart began to beat wildly.
After a moment, Leng Yi walked in quickly, with a smile on his face, and bowed: "Congratulations to the official family! Empress Huarui agreed!"
Zhao Guangyi was so happy that he almost jumped up and grinned: "Great! What did she say?"
"The empress heard what Wei Chen said about the official family's thoughts, and she nodded repeatedly, saying that it is right for the official family to put the country first. She just hopes that the official family will not forget their commitment."
"Of course I won't forget it!" Zhao Guangyi said cheerfully, "When does the empress allow me to enter Nanke Temple?"
Leng Yi said: "Tomorrow morning."
"How long can I stay?"
"The empress has not said anything. In my opinion, since the empress has not said anything, it will depend on the official family. If she can please the empress, she probably will not drive the official family out. Of course, the official family needs it.
Find some reasonable reasons to stay."
"Very good!" Zhao Guangyi was very excited and laughed up to the sky. This was the first time that Mrs. Huarui agreed to see him. With a start, you don't have to worry about the future. The future sexual happiness is all in this good start. This is all.
Leng Yi's contribution. Zhao Guangyi said: "Leng Aiqing! Last time you paid tribute to painting tools and saved my life from Queen Xiao Zhou. Both times, I still didn't reward you. This time you did it for me.
I must reward you for important things, otherwise, others will say that I don’t know the rewards and punishments! Hahahahaha, tell me, what do you want?"
Leng Yi hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "These are things that a humble minister should do, and there is no need for rewards..."
"No! You said the same thing last time. You have to say it this time! Otherwise, if I keep putting it off, I will owe you more and more. Hahahaha"
"The official's words are serious, but the humble minister is indeed..."
Wang Jien on the side smiled apologetically and said: "Master Leng, don't be polite. Just say what the officials ask you to say. You must know that the officials have the final say on what to reward, and no minister can choose it for you.
, that’s the first one. It’s just because your contribution is particularly valuable to the officials, that’s why you have this honor! Don’t offend the officials’ good intentions!”
Leng Yi looked at Zhao Guangyi in embarrassment and said: "If you have to choose a minister, then it is better for the minister to be respectful than to obey."
"Well! Just say it! Don't be afraid, it doesn't matter if you say it wrong!"
Leng Yi glanced at the files piled high on the dragon table and said: "Weichen shamelessly boasted that Weichen's ability to solve cases is not bad, and he understands the criminal law of the Song Dynasty. If the officials can trust Weichen, they must
No, let Wei Chen help the officials review death penalty cases."
Zhao Guangyi was stunned, turned to look at the large stack of death penalty files on the dragon table, looked at each other again, and burst into laughter.
Leng Yi was very frightened. He cupped his hands and said, "I'm a humble minister who spoke nonsense. Please forgive me!"
Zhao Guangyi smiled and waved his hand, saying: "I'm not laughing at you, I didn't expect you to choose this. This is not a nice job, let alone a reward. If I take this as a reward, others will laugh at me. Hahaha"
Leng Yi then wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said: "Wei Chen believes that life and death are the highest authority. If Wei Chen can help the government guard the door at the last hurdle, the people who have been wronged will not be let in."
It would be a supreme honor to kill someone by mistake and prevent those who may have slipped through the net from escaping their guilt."
Zhao Guangyi nodded: "You are right. Since you are willing to help me suffer, that's fine, you can help me read the paper. You have to divide it into two parts, those that should be killed and those that should not be killed, and give the reasons for each.
, and it must be based on the evidence in the file and the provisions of the criminal law. I will make a ruling after listening to it."
"Yes! Thank you, officials!"
"Hey, you helped me, I should be thanking you, why do you want to thank me in turn? Hahaha."
"Actually, this job brings great benefits to Wei Chen."
"Oh? Most of these prisoners sentenced to death are poor people with nothing to live on. They don't have much money to burn incense for you. Hehe."
Leng Yi hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "The officials are joking and saying that he doesn't have it. Even if it is delivered to the door, the ministers will not take a penny from him!"
"Well, that's cool, so where do your benefits come from?"
"If you can help the officials review death penalty cases by their side, if the officials can handle the case well, then the officials will look after the officials' abilities and promote them to important positions in the future. It won't be a problem. Hehe."
Zhao Guangyi laughed again: "You're right! I was going to reuse you!" He walked back to the dragon table, picked up a stack of memorials, and shook it, "Since I want to reuse you, I should give you some real advice.
Real power, real benefits for you! - Well, not only will you help me read the death penalty files, but you will also help me read the memorials submitted by the ministers!"
Leng Yi was taken aback and hurriedly bowed: "I don't dare!"
"Why don't you dare!" Zhao Guangyi said with a smile: "I only let you read it, but I won't let you review it."
Leng Yi didn't understand and looked up at him.
Zhao Guangyi said: "These memorials come from all over the country. There are too many. There are hundreds of them every day. Some of them are smelly and long. They are just full of nonsense and empty words. There is nothing practical. What they have is just preaching and teaching me.
How to govern a country and how to be a wise king are all clichés that make me tired of reading them. So, please help me read through these memorials, prioritize them, and put aside those memorials that should be read or not.
, take out the important ones, and report the urgent ones to me immediately. That’s it. Do you understand?”
Leng Yi thought to himself, this is asking me to be your personal secretary, and he hurriedly bowed and said: "If that's all, it's okay. However, many of the memorials may involve military and other highly confidential contents, and it is not appropriate for a low-ranking minister to read them.
Chapter completed!
